Some of y'all are literally carried by your characters...

I wouldn't consider myself all that great a player and I been stuck in green ranks for a while with Jin.

But it's also no secret that character selection matters a great deal in Tekken.

It's clear as day that a lotta folks in green wouldn't be half as good with different characters.

Don't get me started on all the smurfing and cheating.

Guilty as charged

I maintain a equal usage rate with 3 characters and my worst (DVJ) and best (Law) performing character are 20% appart winrate wise.

Jin mains getting ready for work be like: Do I wear a green shirt? Or a blue shirt? Man, so many shirts I better take a medical leave.

No offense mate, but if you can't win in Green ranks after a however long you played, which should be a bit otherwise you wouldn't make this thread, you're just as bad as your opponents.

Look, in Green ranks, and hell, all the way up to Red ranks, you can climb only by knowing your character, that's all you need, because just as you don't know their character, they don't know your's. You can steal them with mix-ups, poke them to hell and back with strings and solid moves, frame trap them into those ch launchers that TMM claims he could talk for hours about.

Bottom line is that in those lose ranks, it's all on you. If you lose, you gotta learn your character better.

No offense, but this basically what I said right at the beginning just rephrased.

[C.C. 折オリ枝 の 夫]

My point was that you shouldn't talk about others, because they're just as bad as you are, their character has nothing to do with it.

If any of you were any decent, not good, just decent, you'd be out of green ranks like it's nothing, all you need is to learn your own character.

If you're stuck there it's because you're bad, this is just a case of pots and kettles. You're playing a character that has everything, Jin has no exploitable weaknesses, so the same "you would be half as good" talk applies to you too.

I know it can be frustrating and what not, so you try to complain about others and let off some steam that way, but don't become a TMM fanboy. If you're tired of dealing with the green ranks, get out of the green ranks, it's that easy.

[poop]

This doesn't make sense to discuss cuz it happens to everyone.

Kinda the reason mains and subs exist to begin with.

i just play slot machine and select the ? option, its the best thing i can do to have fun.

[Quintessence]

surprised Jin isn't carrying you somehow, guy literally has every tool in the game and is in theory the perfect character.

Sorry, mate, but that's not true.
It's like that meme...
"You're bad with Bryan. I'm bad with Lee. We're not the same"

Some characters just forgive too much mistakes, while also giving you a bunch of easy-to-execute flowcharst that are much harder to avoid and punish than to perform.
It's less noticable on high-level play. But on mid or begginer it's there.

Mate, trust me, he's in Green ranks, nobody knows what they are doing in that rank. You can have the most spammy Hwoarang ever, put him under pressure and you go through his life bar like a hot knife through butter.

Up until the Red ranks, you can win most of your games solely by knowing your own character and how to do some basic pressure. Will you lose some games to some one and done cheese? Sure, but that still won't affect the climb because you'll still be able to win most of your games just by knowing how to play your own character.

If he starts mashing some 50-50s between Hellsweep and left electric, maybe a few strings from Jin, he'd be out of Green rank faster than you can say "Kazuya is overrated", because guess what, just as how nobody knows how to deal with Xiaoyu or Chloe or Kunimitsu or you name it down there, nobody knows how to deal with Jin either. Do a frame trap into m4, 99% of the time you'll get a ch, because people down there can't stop mashing.

People should focus on their own character and their own play, especially Green ranks. If they start going TMM mode from now, they'll never improve because there's always going to be something to complain about.

Knowledge checks are just that, knowledge checks. You lose to them, learn and best them next time.

Sorry, cannot agree. Knoweledge check on "is it -12 or -14 on block" is not the same as "i have exactly 3 frames to step this move and punish it"

Please tell me what move gives you exactly 3 frames to step and punish it?

Tekken players... cannot understand metaphor and exaggeration. You're saying you did not understand what I meant?
