I qualified for Road to EVO. Wish my Steve luck
You got this 👍
Beautiful, champ.
How do you qualify
You getting cooked
Good luck bro 💪
People in the comments see one Steve do well in tournament and now he’s top tier and was “always good” 😭😭😭
Like what happened to Lily, and to literally every character that wins. People just can't admit that a player did good because he's good
Exactly why I stopped caring about tier lists years ago. This is very prominent in the MK games too. One player preforms good with one character next thing you know that character is the hottest shit.
@@Gabi24492except lili was rated high A Low S on nearly every tier list and above alisa and law on most tier lists pre evo japan, so no not similar situation at all
i do believe its a matter of recognizing your win condition and dominating that mind game, steve is so fast he usually makes people resort to counter poking with jabs rather than running the risk of being counter hit in the middle of a big swing. thats why numen won, because arslan didnt wanna risk getting floated in a countered running 3,2. but when he did run the risk he actually won doing so, therefore i believe its just a matter of metagaming. like when u fight a charge character and stick on him like white on rice constantly switching sides and jumping to throw off his charge timing😂
just sayin HEERA MALIK clears numan :3
Someone said "that hug looked like a throw break"💀
I am at severe frame disadvantage after reading this
that hug counter hit the f*ck outta me
🤣🤣🤣
Arsalan actually really appreciates Numan. He has sparred with him so many times and always has high praise for him
Even the replay of this match is uploaded on Arslan's channel with the title "Sponsor this man ASAP"
The man in question obviously being Mr. Numan
Obviously, since you already named him at the beginning of your comment.
Nauman and Heera Malik are like the best steve players ive seen in tekken 8
I was at this event and the energy was amazing. Surprisingly alot of people were cheering for Numan.
What's so surprise?
Everyone cheers for underdog..
A lot.
Two words.
Numan's reaction entire set :🗿
Bamco: fix stuff that was never supposed to be there in the first place and call it buffs for Steve. Meanwhile Lars gets freebies on top tier.
ws1,1 buff is pretty stupid even though he needed the Lionheart buff.
Steve as just been nerfed, is Namco who think they buff him, lionheart peekaboo cancel gone is Sucy a stupid thing and ws11 buff is trash
@@BullC6 Been using that a lot with steve, making it a jail is just a god send poking tool, but lets not act like steve got much compared to the rest of the cast
@@BullC6 i play Steve and I wish i didn't jail it was a fun pressure tool 😔
@@lostmnt not just Steve. Asuka Bears Kazuya Zafina are still playing Tekken 6.3. I still don't see their tournament viability Vs dragunov Feng lilly law or the others
Even at high level this match looks like Steve fighting against a boss character lol
steve always playing dark souls haha
@@tristanherb49 i love this comment, literally thats how I play as a Steve main Tekken 8, have to learn the boss in an out beforehand - previous Tekkens were a walk in the park with Steve
Seeing Steve take out a cheap character is like a dream come true..
Didnt even know who Numan was tbh but ill be checking him next to Heera
1:00 Hahaha 😂 Ch mean's Chaudhary.
But Counterhit is funny, I'll call him.
Makes me want to go on ranked and lose 50 games of steve again
CH is short Chowdhry, it's sort of like a title. Does not mean Counterhit but that's nice too xD
He plays like a Counter Hit.
@@DownBadDad-iz9mp yup his character and his play style certainly gives the impression 😅
You mean surname
@@majimbo8528 sure sort of, although sometimes people use it at the beginning of their name and sometimes at the end of their name as it's a title not actual name
From this day hence forth we dub him CounterHit Numan the Steve God.
Steve so fire to watch in this game wish more people would stick with him
People are too busy eating up the Steve player propaganda about him being "bottom 5 trash character".
@@QuintessenceHD I still can’t say he’s top tier but my god, if Numan isn’t inspiring to watching in this. He plays like a mad man in these sets.
He's sick to watch when the game sound is muted, his voice is annoying af 💀

Tekken 8 patch notes for Steve by Bamco:-
_Dont play Steve_
Get a life bro I can’t watch a Steve video without seeing you complain in the comments
@@noodlepiefaceit's called free speech. Go know something 😂
@@MJ-fp6lxlmao free speech should not apply to you, get a life troll.
@@MJ-fp6lxThats so corny, and this is what you choose to use your free speech for? 🤣. Absolutely hilarious intel from noodlepieface.
bro that comment at 1:23 "wassup future me taking a shit" 😂😂
O lawd. A Steve player that can actually use his modern tools along side the usual Steve tools. Such a treat to watch.
And as always, Steve player shows how this character is pure Tekken
Nauman really did huge.
Because beating arslan in long sets is. Like an achievement ❤
he's reading arslan like a book on this set, also Arslan feels like he's still playing a tekken 7 game. He's respecting all the frames while Numan is trying to challenge everything
It felt like arslan relied too much on azucena's best moves and became predictable
A third of the games are him doing wr23 into lows
I dunno wtf he was doing and how tf is this "the best tekken player ever"
@@Weaver0x00 he’s the best tekken 7 player, but for tekken 8 someone else may take that title from him.
@@Weaver0x00 to be fair tekken 8 is far more aggressive then 7,which is more of a defensive game.
both of the arguably best tekken players arslan and knee are good at the defensive game.
tho sometimes new blood come and just better then the older guys.
@@Weaver0x00 always guys like you with the same shit. People were talking shit about him even in Tekken 7. I guess being 4 time EVO champion wasnt enough for him to shut your sorry ass
Lol Pakistan not bieng in EVO is like a UEFA champions league without Spain or England, definitely cant take it seriously.
Agreed
I like how people are using this as an excuse to say azucena isn't stupid broken. Of course high level players will be on a more level plane. Even in these matches you can see arslan abuse wr 23 to get out of every pinch
Looks like Blasted Salami's channel link is broken in the bio jsyk, great commentary
That guy saying “tier lists don’t matter at high level” could not be more wrong. They matter most at high level because if the knowledge and matchup experience those types of players have. Knowing this makes the Steves victory all the more cooler because of how much work you and understanding of matchups you need to acquire to win with Steve.
bruh
You are right but everyone's been nerfed enough to where Steve's abilities really shine. Azucena is very punishable and Steve stance cancels are very powerful
"They matter most at high level ", this video was literally the best player on Earth using the highest tiered character and losing to a low tier character at the highest level of game-play. The video exemplifies that guys comment LOL.
@@ShenasRI really so you see all the low tiers constantly winning tournaments? You see bears, asuka, Leeroy, raven, Bryan, and even characters like yoshi who are strong but not super strong win tournaments, let alone huge tournaments? Who’s also the best player on earth here? Neither of them currently are in tekken 8
@@ShenasRI Steve is not a low tier character. That's where you are wrong and you are using azucena launch stats to represent this current one which is severely weaker than before. Steve's punishment is massive and she's very easily punishable. Her strings are all negative and majority of them are high. TMM said she was S tier for idiotic reasons. She was considered high tier for literally her running move which tracked both sides and chipped you to death reliably. That was nerfed and now she is no longer up there with the High As. You just spoke out of pure ignorance of the game. The strongest character in the game currently is King. Up under him is Feng, Xaioyu, was dragunov I do not know if that's the case anymore now that his tracking isn't as good and his crouching move follow up isn't so plus. Devil Jin was the absolute strongest but he got nerfed to the ground as well
Idk why the concept of Corpse Kicking has resurfaced in fighting games recently but its always gonna make me laugh
finally a pro realizing that rage art is broken op.
you hit rage and the opponents 50/50 pressure mix up shenanigans go out of the window.
if you can still trade any blow rage art beats every single 50/50 attempt
how often you hit rage and your opponent starts some vortex stuff. you should remember rage art beats every option and resets to neutral
you see the slightest attack movement and just press the button you have far better chance hitting the rage art than guessing the 50/50
Uff super crazy damage at 7:26
Steve is amazingly unique though he's not a easy character to play at all. He's not something that gonna carry yuh in matches, but rather it's yuh who needs to pilot him to make him excel !!
now that steve got buff dang
i literally came watching this whole match. i didnt even know him but i always rooted for him just because he was playing steve against arslan in fkn grand finals, and he absolutely nailed it. it was beautiful to watch, congratulations numan. i always thought steve being so weak in this game hence i didnt even buy tekken 8 since he was the only character i was playing, but now numan changed my mind that even with him, you can still win against anyone. now im returning to the game letsgo
Well, the caveat is that to win with Steve against the top tiers you need to be really, really damn good at Tekken fundamentals.
@@garymichalles8383 yes thats whats actually more beautiful thing is, and thats why numan is much more amazing to me than others. when i first saw tekken 8 steve i thought they made him easier by making his execution easier but oh how i was wrong, now with the cast has much more op shit and unga bunga, he is actually much harder than tekken 7, because of his low damage to b1 too. im really fine with this version of steve, except voice lol
Knee is probably like dreams realised now! Haha see him switch to Steve
i always feel like we need more steve on tourna events
Def gonna be using throws more
"Oh hey, it's you. It's Me! I'm tootally. . . Redday" - Buff Steve
Arslan mentally devastated after match big surprise which also prove that Steve is still a beast in good hands .
Finally more Steve representation
9:40 yes I thought after panda this was established
wow, steve is amazing when you can't hear his voice lines screaming at you.
I believe in steve. I started learning him a few mknths ago and hea a lot if fun. I would bet in duture uodates steve will get some good buffs.
Ive been saying it for a sec,a good steve-not even a great steve- will have you on your ass and questioning wtf just happened when steve is beating you down
Steve's voice in Tekken 8 is straight goofy bro... "GOOD NIGHT" "THIS IS THE FIST OF A CHAMPION" he sounds like a poorly written anime character with severe plastic surgery
shit goes hard and im tired of pretending it doesnt
@@jeezorgeezVEVO The only 2 that honestly are cool is when he says bullseye and smash.
I find myself quoting him randomly like “THATS A KNOCKOUT” “OVA HERE”
@@jeezorgeezVEVOI personally think goodnight and “Ova here” sound cool
I think it would be closer to the truth to say that tier lists matter as much as everyone believes them to matter, combined with how mature they are and how rigorous they have been tested.
For over a decade people believed yoshi to be low tier in smash melee, and it was basically true until it wasn't.
There were just no players confident enough to unlock the potential of the character until aMSa came around in the mid 2010s. The hypothesis of yoshi being low tier was not tested enough.
Problem is that its more difficult to prove a negative. So there is a feedback relationship between confidence into a tierlist influencing how many people will try to test it and prove it wrong.
Congratulations to Numan. Arslan sent him to loosers, but Numan came back even stronger. Ggs
Damn. Arslan does wr2 faster than I just press one button
He is legit, watched his channel a few times.
I really can't forget what Arslan said come to Pakistan and play with the guys I play there. Pakistan really was a Shadow in Tekken Scene a Dark horse if you will. So many hidden strong players there.
steve is so hard to play against imo
he's just as hard to learn and play with lmao but compared to other chars, he isn't if you know how to play your main.
What's so hard about not pressing on minus every time?
@@sanchezo95he controls the neutral game quite well
@@somebodytouchamyspaget4835 Yea that is true but he can't really threaten you with deadly mixups out in neutral, for anti steve, all you need is patience and not playing into his timing.
@@oreowithurea5018 it’s like they don’t know the counter play to Steve is to NOT PRESS, is the gonna plus a million frame 50/50 you from half screen ? No. When I play against Steve player with feng I honestly feel sad for them
Mainman... I know you're a coom fanatic. You absolutely love it... But big VEINY combo? Cmon man. 😂😂😂😂
Main Mensch! Do a Steve break down, he is still nice but the other cast is busted after the nerfs I would See Stevens pretty lulz
I was waiting for this
Knee must be taking notes
I main steve and do those combo all the time. What makes steve hard is just that he need good read all his moves are mainly counter hit launcher unless you know how to go to peekaboo. But everyone seems to know how to counter steve so thats what makes it hard
"Arse sir Luhn"
No qualifier needed...he's just one of the best players period. Absolutely insane fundamentals on that guy
Atleast broken throws is across the board.
So no ones broken.
No character is week it's depend on how you use ❤
The cheese spam lord gets bodied by a Steve player. You love to see it
Bro where are all these people who were complaining about the new system and brain dead characters dominating tournaments?
We are watching this man Numan cook in multiple tournaments with smart pressure and a version of steve that is gutted compared to T7.
Fundamentals and good ass Tekken is still the king of this shit no matter how plus on block these Heat Moves are.
They don't speak for the majority of the player base.
It’s more T8 doesn’t reward skill as much as T7. Thanks to a lot of moves ignoring the 3D elements of the game, this has become Street Fighter sometimes. Before balancing, there was a massive difference between players who played top tier characters and those on low tiers.
Especially with bullshit like homing throws.
@@somebodytouchamyspaget4835 as they shouldn’t lol I’m so glad Evo and the Pakistan tournaments played out the way they did.
@@usmansubhani7482 these are all valid critiques. I just wanted to talk my shit for the doomers that said tournament play would become uninteresting and the top players would not be able to rise above these new mechanics.
You have not been paying attention and this game is dead.
Numan is cracked.
The only silver lining that playing a character like Steve has in this meta is that people are less used to playing against Steve and you 100% know how all the top tiers work.
When you mention "Best Steve in the world" and you are not talking about Nin... I feel old.
actually i think that azucena is the only one female character that steve can get wildman after parry becouse her legs are so long....
Steve isn't weak. He's just not a broken or braindead character to play in TK8.
big respect
That running shit from Azu should be punishable. Too OP
Numan Counterhit😂😂😂😂
Its choudhary
Main man is always funny😂
10:30 Tier lists are actually more important in the high level. You can use anyone in the low levels. In fact, characters like Eddy, Hwoarang and the Bears are the scrub killers that you will find a lot of in the low to mid levels. It's only in the high level where you actually begin to see their flaws and they start to fall off. Anybody who says "tier lists aren't important in the high level" is just propagating the "feel good" mindset where you're made to believe that you can do well with any character in this game. Like how your parents and teacher will tell you that you can become anyone you want to be if you worked hard enough. The harsh reality says otherwise. The reason why we celebrate Ranchu's bears, Numan's Steve, and Knee's Lili pick against Qudans is because they've done something exceptional that 90 percent of the community wouldn't do or wouldn't be able to do. Don't undermine their achievements by saying "it doesn't matter".
Akuma was written as well don’t judge too soon
Ohh ohh don't let Shadow see this
Numan makes me want to pick up Steve again 🙏
TMM sounded soooo sad that his BF got completely clobbered here. The look on Arslan face when he shook Numan hand 27:16 - priceless.
Its not counter hit its chaudry its his cast
I want to learn Steve but is he really that hard to play ? Is the execution on combos hard ?
Ps i main jin and yoshi battle ruler rank only
Simple but needs getting used to. Has as much movement as Yoshi with a lot of punch variations, but the hard part is getting used to his play style that doesn’t have many launchers.
I mean, he has dodge buttons for kicks after all.
his execution is way easier now.
you need to play around with stances and be creative to open someone up with steve.
he is in my opinion the only character with a 50/50 that is just based on timing. in low mid ranks you have many shenanigans but after purple you need to mix the opponent up with timing rather than mid low.
Just do it. If you enjoy the character, the difficulty won't matter. You just work hard and become good enough to pop off anyway. This video is a great example of that
Some execution, they removed pkb transition from Lionheart so you dont have to practice that. Hard is mostly because of his gameplan, no strong lows, no conventional 15f launcher, not a lot of “broken” moves that other characters have. Dont worry about it too much and give him a shot. Still a fun char, gl brother
Hardest part about Steve is managing his stances and movement. Its imperative that you master duck cancels cause you’ll always be using them, and its imperative that you master stance cancels and switching. Other than that and a few tough things execution wise, he doesnt really have a go to ‘I win if I land this’ button other than B1, and how successful you are with that depends on how strong your fundamentals are.
Numan No 1 Steve Fox in the World right now Amazing Performance
No way he said *COUNTER HIT* for Numan ch😭
5:40, yeah, its an option, they're not op in tekken 8, they're normal. maybe relative to tekken 7, they were useless back then, they're just a viable option now
better than evo Japan
Even after all the nerfs I still shit on people with Azucena and will never drop her (unless Lei comes back)
Damn Phildx and now numan
Watching Azucena get the floor blast even with all her other tools and steve not getting that with his throw kinda makes me hate this game even more. New T8 power creep character privileges
Her floor blast literally only 42 out of lib stance during juggle lol
makes me miss nin.
27:13 😂😂
I am gonna fight tomorrow evening The Best Steve Player In The World#NumanCh
It is scary for me now after tmmswe's title😂
I wonder if the matches are going to be boring once they nerf the throws etc. The T8 matches are so much more fun than the T7 matches.
Lili is a great counter pick for steve. I just love blocking Steve's punches and midstring you do her parry so satisfying 😂
Yeah, using Steve against Lili makes you feel like you have to play defensive the whole game
Did you forget heera malik (best Steve in the world)
He doesn’t exist
the most tilted guy whith his chat i ever seen on twitch
think about it. Arslan was carried by the character and lacked the fundamentals numan had. Thats just proves that those S tier chars are not only carry you but also make you worse of a player in generall
I don't think he's worse because of that, he's just normally a defensive player playing against a character he didn't lab against, while Numot grinded in hell with a bottom tier character and is familiar with the azu match up
@@BlackJustice2637 In no universse or existance Steve is bottom tier in Tekken 8. Mid-range character, that's it. Words have meaning.
Arslan did not get cooked there and saying he doesn’t have fundies is incredibly bad wording :v, he played defensively and poke heavy- Numan just out paced him in alot of the decision making and kept pressure on him in what is the most defensive characters in the roster- he played Steve like a mad man going for unsafe strings and never b1 until the very end where Arslan got desperate and stopped crouching. It was an insane match. Steve isn’t as bottom tier as we think he is, it’s legit because no one pilots him like Numan does.
Saying arslan “lacked the fundamentals” is hilarious, he just got beat by a good player
@lucastonoli3256 does Steve have anything that's bs in this game? Heat smashes are cracked in general, but numot almost never used his. Meanwhile, almost every other character is greatly rewarded for doing it. Steve can't use the main mechanic of the game nearly as well as the majority of the cast. I like him, but he's not that strong. I don't even play the character, but it always feels like their wins are earned
ngl, i would enjoy the videos more without the preview on the start
7:23 was sexy asf
Damn, so here’s already the best Steve in the world? 😂
Solely based on Arslans smugness I enjoy watching him lose.
I thought Shinblade and Buppamen were the best Steves in the world
the best STEVE in the world is the best TEKKEN 8 player in the world.
I also qualified for road to Evo, glhf everyone!❤
F’ing legend
I think Arslan's downfall is that he's been playing that clown of a character for so long now that he sacrifices everything else in his game just to spam the party moves. It's depressing how whenever Arslan starts getting downloaded, he just resorts to WR3,2 and mixes up with throw, df1,4 or db4. Its so brainless that its hard to respect. I understand tier whore characters always being a thing but even Kuni wasn't that bad. She had stupid poking and good movement. Azucena just plays herself.
TMM is underestimating Steve a little
'a little'
Never use the performance of a top 3 competitor as evidence. The 40th best player is closer to the benchmark when deciding character difficulty vs similar skilled player. Numan outright outplayed Arslan many more times to win rounds.
@@jDiddyi 3:42
@@jDiddyi When did I use anyone's performance as evidence? I've been playing Tekken for more than half my life, and Tekken 8 for a couple of months now. Through playing (against) Steve, I've come to the conclusion that he isn't as weak as TMM likes to make him sound. Same goes for Bryan. Not saying they are good either. Just nowhere near as terrible, honest and handicapped as TMM wants you to believe 😂
@@Beforezzz the same guaranteed wall bs that Bryan also has. Funny coincidence that Steve and Bryan are the two characters TMM dickrides the most 😂
Love to see Ash losing. L Ash, W Steve.
Me too,when he looses using azu and jun makes me smile
Bro, compare Mainmans commentary to Phidx's video.
IS steve the new Akuma? high schill level high payout?
No, Steve is mid Numen is just goated.
Nopes. Steve is 🗑️ Numan was on ultra instinct mode
actually steve is high skill level low payout, his damage got a huge nerf also he got some counterhits removed.
