@@absolutelypointlessvideos707 ooh yeah it's Maya you're right. Watched it years ago, lemme fix that, preciate it. If anyone's curious I put Mai instead of Maya
@@absolutelypointlessvideos707 yeah I heard the game was better. I never played it and watched the anime first. I didn't think it was bad at all. I don't really have any intentions on playing the game right now tho lol
She’s not clearly overpowered but she has one of the most overpowered moves in the game and is really degenerate to play both against and with now. Would prefer they revert/lessen the WR1+2 buffs and try something else cause I don’t enjoy using it or playing against it and I don’t think I’m alone in thinking it’s boring or frustrating.
I think it's hilarious that instead of addressing any of her numerous shortcomings to buff her, they instead took what was already one of her better tools (install running 1+2) and just made it DUMB strong. I almost feel bad when I use it.
Nobody is a defensive character in this game. The devs purposely dialed the offense up to 11 and nerfed defense across the board. They gave her the buffs to keep up
@@erk8520 you can even unga with her on defense! Just back 3, power crush, can-can, parry, tsabaki, or high crush. Blocking is for cowards and pansies.
I like the duality between the comments here. The people giving detailed explanations on what they think about the buffs, and the people just saying "no"
@@minimamba824 Went 6-2 against one of the best Asuka's in EU with a character he says is mid and makes this title lmao. I get clickbait is all part of the hustle but the video answers the question: Asuka still isn't really that strong. She's in the best spot she's ever been, but not for the right reasons.
@@ItsCassius The video title is a way of sparking discussion especially since I mentioned at the beginning that I hadn't played against Asuka since the buffs. Also I didn't know when this was "one of the best Asuka's in EU" also whether or not Hwoarang is "mid" (I don't remember saying this) I'm also just very good in this MU anyway so....
A legit corner is such a terrible place to be. 4:30 - 4:35 In that sequence, she indeed went under a jab with her Power Crush and Xiaoyu'd a mid. If Asuka's Power Crush could always go under highs, I've never seen it before. It took me until more than halfway through the video to realize that Asuka's supposed to Mayoi from Ace Attorney. I feel slow now. I don't like the idea of running 1+2 (I think that's the move) being *+18* on block in Heat, but at least it's only a Heat thing. Her mix-up options after that command grab being safer certainly helps her, but I don't think she's leagues better than she was.
The buff did not changd her status ver much, her faults are in her core sets, her predictible strings, her low poke damage, how hard is regain the offensive and how she lost the offensive after only doing 2 blocked hits
In Tekken 8 most character are like hwarang, can continue attacking even when blocked certain strings, but Asuka can't, and the damage she can get when attacking is low in comparison, the short distance of her attacks are bad for poking, her advantage is the safety of her launchers i think
WR 1+2 buff was uncalled for but i dont think the buffs were too much especially when she has been getting abused with nerfs coming into tekken 8, more importantly i wish they would fix the hitboxes because I feel like crying sometimes lol.
While the running 3+2 is welcome, but duckable and her running mid reactable... the problem with asuka still remains... in a game where everyone is going crazy, asuka does not have a great 50/50 game... and the people that make her look good like kingreyjr, are putting in a lot of work with the char... you have to be very creative to work with her.
I was just talking with a friend about how broken Asuka seems (even when comparing her to the likes of Jin Kazuya or Jun ) (I'm biased against Mishimas and Kazamas because of how rewarding they are for the amount of time/lack thereof you have to invest into them) AND NOW YOU'RE SAYING SHE GOT A BUFF TOO?
This move is too much duckable!!! It's so easy to foresee and duck, anyway that's just still one overpowered move in weak ass character. I don't think that this move should be this op, but it's still not overpowered enough to evaluate Asuka to S tier or even A, maybe B but still doubt. Her destabilizer move was a fix, not buff per se.
Not just the buffs... She gets away with so many things that it's crazy.... Like her b3 for example.... It's launch Punishable on block but barely any one can launch her for that it's very frustrating..... Why is F1+2 safe on block? Trust me the list is too long
Yea your main needs a nerf to damage haha. This new system has people being carried with him. All that PRESSURE, especially when heat is engaged, is ludicrous. He needs a nerf asap. Just saying
Asuka mains will swear their characters is bad meanwhile King Rey Jr just won another tourney as im making this comment. Not listening to Asuka players crying no more
Hwo doesn't carry anybody it still takes huge mixup knowledge and knowing when to use the correct stances in certain situations to win with him especially at higher rankings/lvl play. Anybody can carry u in this game but only so far, eventually you'll have to get deeper into the system to climb higher.
Nah. She's still weak. People complaining about her buffs are only doing so because they haven't put in the time to lab her and they're looking for any excuse not to. Besides, like a dude above said, her biggest buff was to one of her already-decent tools, running 1+2. She has holes all over the place still, and this title is disingenuous to begin with since K-Wiss went 6-2 against her with a character that he considers "mid".

@@zer0cx110 "almost" is the key word in that sentence lol
One could argue that that is a better way to strengthen a character while maintaining their identity via clear strengths and weaknesses
@@raidennc true, but it seems in this case the identity their looking to establish is GORILLA AAAAAAAHHHH
now there gonna gut the move n leave her ass
What really gets me is people still want to call her a defensive character 😂
Exactly. She’s probably the most offensive character in the damn game who suppose to be defensive. And she kills your health bar!
Nobody is a defensive character in this game. The devs purposely dialed the offense up to 11 and nerfed defense across the board. They gave her the buffs to keep up
You're either playing defensively or just straight up gorilla unga. Absolutely no middle ground.
I don't even play defensively. Just unga bunga my way to victory lol.

Hello i am learning hwoarang, what are yiur thought process for neutral?
Think less. Press more. D3,4 all the time. Don't play neutral.

@@jasonkennedy6844 kinda l advice because if he spams it they'll just learn to counter it so it's better for him to learn higher damage combos

Fight^^
I'm rooting against you this time my guy
I hate the counter hit throw sound too bro. Lol! Idk why 💁🏾♂️😂
