I'm PhiDX, I play Tekken professionally for @ParagonFGC and ArcadeShock. - Hry
hi PhiDX, i know rank isnt everything but i just wanted to thank u for ur digestible content. this is my first tekken game and ur content has helped me understand (relatively... lol) the game & i managed to get to red rank with lili even while being a quadriplegic. i had a spinal cord injury in 2015 & never imagined i could play tekken, even if its sub-optimally lol. thanks again
You are very strong. My father lost the use of his legs and had eyes issues after a car accident in 2018 and all my respect and prayers go to disabled folks. ❤
I’m proud of you ❤️ almost made a grown man cry
Hell yeah, respect
Mad respect my brother
Keep doing your thing 💪❤️
Phi is becoming the ATP of T8.
So many people watched those character tutorials for TTT2, and now Phi will be the starting point for SOOO many players "getting good" journey.
This really puts Phi's Aris cosplay in perspective.
Hey alright kid..

For everyone who doesn't like to play online or gets nervous easily, this is a great way to turn fighting games into single player games. I find this type of training a lot of fun honestly, and it's a great break from ranked rage grinding
That's exactly how I feel. Improvement without frustration
For people that are following this drill, it is very important to do it on both sides, you will be surprised how a side switch could throw you off.
Another more practical option for the dragonuv snake edge punish, is to input ws punish in both cases at the same time you would have blocked it, the throw does not catch ws state.
im tappin in to the local offline scene and yeah, knowing p2 side is CRUICIAL. i dont wanna be at an instant disadvantage if im on p2 side, so ima be just running p2 online for a while until its as good as my p1
I’m not home to test at the moment but you could even take it a step further with Drag’s snake edge punish and crouch block to launch no matter what (assuming your character has an appropriate launch like a WS2 or hop kick out of crouch). I am thinking that if Drag lets the snake edge rip, then your characters block animation will eat the launch and you can punish accordingly. If Drag fakes the snake edge into the crouch throw, the launch will catch Drag as he is doing the crouch throw. Good option select for both cases, just requires muscle memory drilling like Phii is stating in this video. Either way, good advice all around.
Yep. Noobs always freeze when I switch sides. They also get hit by 10 strings. Learn to low parry those
I straight cannot break throws on p2 side
The reason I didn't suggest hopkick vs. Dragunov db3 vs. db3,1+2
- I didn't realize it at the time
- i think the 9f jumpstate requirement is harder to hit than the reaction block~release
That said, Level 3 is pretty hard. Feel free to jump to the Law drill as needed.
The throw breaks together is nightmare, i can react well to those those 3 options, but the throw breaks by themselves are hard.
But anyway, i'm loving your training guides man, helped me a lot
I think the best option isn't raw hopkick as a reaction, it's duck~hopkick (or a WS launcher that doesn't leave you crouching). Time it so that you'll block the low and no longer be crouching by the time the throw would connect.
Love your content Phi!
Came just to share this simple remedy for the db3 fuzzy block shinanigan.
I found that a well-timed FC df2 with Steve, right after Drag's db3 kick animation, (you may have to mash 2 a bit if the kick does come out and blocked), is a very effective and easy muscle memory solution that beats both db3 and db3~1+2,cuz it whifs the grab since Steve is no longer crouching, instead of having to "notice" which one is its visually.
@user-vo1ws6nv5k for Steve I think uf2 is better
Think I just found a feasible OS for this. First, practise blocking db3 and hitting your ws punish button early enough that it doesn't come out. You'll see this won't take long. Next, start hitting that button twice, regardless of which option he goes with. The first press takes you out of crouch state early enough to avoid the throw and launches, the second punishes the db3. It is much easier than it might sound, boiling down to holding db for a second, then smashing your ws2 or equivalent. You have to see it a mile off to use a low crush option, even if it is very satisfying (law's ub3,4 is my fave), and you really want an answer that works whether you react late or early.
edit: Sorry, user-v01... I just noticed you basically said the same thing, but I don't think it got across. It really is better than any low-crush option, and easy as pie.
This guy is trully a monster teaching people, however, in this particular video its trully impressive, i've been struggling with no reacting to anything and just eat shit. Thanks for your work!
Agreed, he’s the best
These drills really do work. The SK Law drill and learning how to review my own replays helped me get to purple ranks after being stuck in green ranks in T7. Your content is leveling so many players up. Keep it up!
I tried that SK Law drill after the previous video on it. Decided soon after to go back to training the little stuff at my level. Got to climb my rock before I even look at the mountain and all that. Thank you for putting all these drills into one video with really good recaps and progress levels. It's quite helpful for motivation to know there's a next step further up.
Love the philosophy and the drills and the general advice. Great videos. Makes playing the game and watching the scene way more fun!
I appreciate you creating vids like this. Sometimes it may seem easy as what you should practice, but having something to practice specifically before playing is so essential.
Always love your drill videos Phi - they're so useful as a new player!
This is something I have been looking to get into, to help me react to lows as that has been a huge weakness of mine (cause of how my mind works). I cannot tell you how happy I am to try this out. Been feeling my gameplay has gotten better playing Reina, and have been seeing myself do better over time and that has been my long term goal rather than ranks. Thank you so much for content like this my guy. Hope to face you some day and see how I fair. Along with other folks. :)
Ahh this reminds me of the time i decided to take this game seriously and started training. Once in T7 Law whopped me many times i was so helpless, we added each other and he said ‘Yeah man junkyard has to be lowparried on the second hit everytime, if you dont wanna be at disadvantage’ i trained that for hours. Im grateful to that player to this day for his attitude, i was always lazy to lab all this stuff but its really a slow and long proccess that indeed pays of.
Take my sub! I realised I've watched every video since T8 came out. Thanks for all the content and general help!
Bloody hell. Prof phidx on a roll here. Thabks for helping us noobs with drill recommendations 😅
Your guides are so helpful. Lows have always been my weakness (along with throws). I gonna train hard with this. Again thanks a lot for all your work 🥰
I've been playing since Tekken 1. Your guides have helped me break out of old bad habits, and improve my gameplay.
Love when you post drills to practice it really helps me improve a lot
THIS is the video I needed.
Thanks Phi! Adding this to the list of things from you to try
Going to have to make a playlist for all these drills. I notice the difference if I do the "law" warm up & Throw break. I recently got a top 3 placement in my local online tournament which was super exciting, all thanks to your analytical breakdowns and approach to the game. Thanks @PhiDx
@PhiDX Thank you for the effort you put into your videos. Your throw-break and sidestepping videos has helped my climb the ranks.Keep up the great work
OMG! This is the video I needed!) Thank you very much!))
That throw break one is tough! Just realized all these years I have been using the heart of the cards to break throws and not my own reaction skills rofl
Hi PhiDX
Love the content. Wanted to let you know your videos helped me get to Fujin. Never thought I would be able to hit this rank. Thanks for all the videos
this grindings should really help me, thanks phidx
This is some crazy good stuff here. Ive been sparring with my buddy today and we were talking about how crazy our defenses are. Imma jump on that training in the morning thx phi he wont see it comin!
Thank you, thank you and thank you again! I actually asked for this and you delivered.
Also, since I started applying the law drill, the throw break, and the kbd/movement training, I just moved on from my plateau. Now I'll add the one for lows.
Invaluable resource for the community.
Fanstatic!! Thank you PhiDx Sensei!!
I love your content bro! So much useful information that will make people better if they take it in and apply it
Fantastic video - super grateful to Phi sharing this w/ us for free
Lovin these Speedkicks drills soooo much
I'm really enjoying your content and how you give us actionable drills to work on. Can't wait to see if you have content to train against trickier characters like yoshi or eddie
These drills are top tier man! The whiff punish one is really great
Great stuff as always
Nothing to see, nothing to say: just the BEST tekken 8 content maker i've seen as for now. And what's astonishing is that the more we go on in time, the better contents get. No words beside a big, heart-felt, THANK YOU for you work! Keep up and kudos from Italy!
Dr Phi at it again! Killing with the content. Catch you on the next stream! ❤✊
Phi, you help a lot. This is my first Tekken where I have been playing ranked and online really. Used to only play Tekken with family members and friends.
I’m only in the first green ranked with Hwoarang. Using your guides. I just have to continue to practice them constantly. My timing is 50/50 so far. Sometimes I block and react pretty good. Sometimes I don’t but, I go oh I see where I had to do it. Or well see the pattern one likes to use with their character.
Hey PhiDX just letting you know your videos are really awesome and helpful. Im playing since tekken 1 and never bothered to learn the wavedash and other high/pro level skill (I dont have my own stuff before, i just go to mall to play).
I start trying to elevate my skill with the help of your videos. Kinda frustrated at first when I tried to learn KBD and Wavedash but now I can say after 3 weeks, I am far far away from day 1. I was like damn I can do it. Only problem now though its hard to apply in ranked games due to kinda nervous when I play rank. But i know time will come I can play calm on rank (im calm when it comes to quick matched though 😂) so I wont messed up my inputs. Right now Im stuck at purple due to my defense is trash (mostly pressing a button in the middle of string, cant break a grab, misinput).
Thanks again PhiDX.
Wow much appreciated for the amazing drills
I need to get some time to practice these drills, specially the throws... Thanks for the vid, Teacher PhiDX 😊
This is my favorite Phi video! ❤
This training is cracked. Thanks for sharing 👏🏾
Thank you PhidDX for this wonderful practicing. I’ve only done for Level 1 and 2. I don’t know about Level 3> before.
i recognized this in t7 even as well. 16:10 whenever a character does an animation that looks kinda odd, chances are that its gonna be a punishable low.
Until you run into Lili, Jun, Xiaoyu, Nina and get crushed by their mids while you're crouching.
@@Silky_Smooth91as a Lili main this is true
Thank you I needed this drill
Youre the goat phi, was hardstuck red ranks and just doing the law drill itself got me purple on all my characters
level 3 and Law ones have been so useful already after even one run through the drills. Throws are a different beast but combining 1 and 2 throw already helped a ton. Definitely will be doing this more often (once a day?) to help improve my defense. Ure a saint Phi!
Level 3 taught me something new. I didn't realize the crouch throw/snake edge mix up drag has can be beaten by that fuzzy duck. Good stuff, nice vid
Or a hopkick.I usually do that
Hop kick destroys it,easy and free launch
if you're hot into your kbd you can kbd it if you're fast enough
"Ah yes, a new drill. Finally I can improve my game!"
*proceeeds to do it once and then never again
Story of my life
saving this, thanks phi
“If he does this”
13:01 that was sick timing lmao
Nice video once again Phidx :) ,
I quite enjoy doing training drills.
I got Tekken King today -- Which I'm happy about even though rank doesn't matter 😅.
Going to keep training and see how I do at VS Fighting this year, will be my first ~big~ tournament and 2nd time offline
Lows and breaking throws are the bane of my existence thank you for posting this (jack 8 main warrior rank)
the pace of videos release is insane !
thanks PhiDX this has helped me climb the blue ranks my defense was so bad prior to this
thanks for the clean structure
You're super friendly sounding and that's why I subscribed ☺
You are the GOAT for this. Thank you! You totally deserved that win with Arslan!
had a question (that i kept to myself) for a couple of weeks on where my eyes should be when doing the throw break drills. thank you VERY much for answering that question!!!!
WhisDX the goat
Started watching you once T8 dropped and your videos are all so helpful. Good to see your videos being used by Maximiliandood!
Great content Sir
Thank you. As a Tekken fan, this video is really valuable!
This is a GOLD video
dropping this content for free is amazing. one of the best FGC content creators put right now! thank you for this vid!
Not enough people talk about the easy to follow presentation, great format Phi.
Tekken must have a mode where people can name and upload their drills to download with a notepad description. Make it like based, and the "hard to pickup, hard to master" is immediately is a "doable to pickup, hard to master" "
easy to pickup, hard to master" would be perfect game design
Sick idea
Been suggesting this in my Tekken group for years.
they wont do it. for some reason they want to make it as time consuming as possible to get good
@@shitshow575 it takes like one minute to record 4 or 5 moves
easy to pickup, hard to master is Smash.
Thank you always as PhiDx!
I love learning Tekken 8 as my first fighting game; and these analytical videos on how to become more fundamental
I like Phi. He puts so much effort into making his videos, and I really appreciate it.
Now if only we could save drills so it would be possible to do them between matches or at least not having to rerecord them every damn time... Kills all the motivation for me.
Solid defense and block punishment is something ive been struggling with alot in blue ranks. Now I'm gonna shoot for Tekken King and God with these drills. Thanks PhiDX!
gonna have to run this training!
Bro, your videos are simply amazing! Please record a video focused in drills setups with other characters, it would be one of most important video for players evolution!!!!
I know you asked for input on how to make these videos better and that you think they are long, but I personally don't mind the length since you provide timestamps with detailed explanations of what those timestamps are. It makes it easier to skip ahead if I want to get the gist of the video or watch it normally and not have to worry about finding information that I know is within the video.
Thank you so much for the video. 👍
Love your content
this is very good i like this drill alot i ill definatly give this a shot and see if i can improve my reaction start slow and correct and then naturally build it up
Thank you Phi
Shoutout Speedkicks & PhiDX.... This is vital Tekken practice exercise.
This training is what Spag was talking about in the video podcast a few days ago. I love it
I have been dying to learn how to deal with lows. Here's your comment sir, you earned it
Awesome, i'll try to do these everyday :P
Best video out here atm. I was doing lvl 1 and 2 and thought hmm it seems pretty easy. Until i started lvl 3 ahaha. I had to rethink my life choices xD
Great video!!!
Your the best bro keep going!
watched this, was skeptical how drilling against Brian would help with other characters but gave it a try anyway. Super low (green rn) but after doing the level 1 drills for ten minutes or so I went online and absolutely smashed a Lee by countering everything he threw. Amazing stuff, thank you for this!
Drills like these have helped me so much over the years, doing stuff like this, side step training, throw break training, and punishment training will make you a completely different player, you stop just pressing buttons and start watching for mistakes to capitalize on
This video should be #1 trending on anything tekken related (CZcams, Twitter, etc.).
I need one list of move like this but against Victor and Leo. nice video man
Thanks Phi
I want to point out something you've taught before, but I feel scared to do so, that your muscle memory gets better so to speak during the recovery (when you take a break, when you sleep, when you go out and touch grass after these training drills). That's all
Thank you, i will try these! Afterwards i need to find drills specifically against Reina and Eddy because i keep eating everything from them 😂
I stopped grinding as hard in tekken when hit fujin because i that gave already gave me that sense of accomplishment. Watching your videos makes me want to go further and see how far i can go.
Bro I wish i had the work ethic n consistency of Phi.. this is insane
Thank you, Sensei.
these drills are doing wonders for my reaction time bro...
I’ve been doing level 3 for years and never thought there would be something as nefarious as this level 4/5, absolutely love this.
I remember watching Anakin do a video like this before. In Tekken 7, he made a drill with Bryan doing hatchet kick, snake edge. It was more of a drill to know when to low parry vs low block. He threw in some mids I can’t think of off the top of my head just so you can not duck the whole time
I was in a 10 game losing streak last night with kaz, got demoted maybe twice, even got schooled by a beginner rank. I was planning on picking a different main permanently or even just dropping the game entirely and play something else. It's videos like this, hell, tips videos by PhiDX specifically that help struggling players find their footing and continue improving their game instead of giving up.
Same here. After just one SK Law drill session, I stopped eating as many lows and started reacting better so even if I wasnt punishing properly or getting the low parry immediately, I started watching for patterns so I could find when to low parry. It was risky but just that mental swap drives me to keep playing and finding new ways to enjoy the game. Keep at it fren
I try to keep the “rank doesn’t matter” mindset. It can be really hard when you are just getting beat up over and over. We just gotta practice stuff like this and slowly improve
