    What do you guys think about Devil Jin In Tekken 8?
  • @FlokiTech
    The community has a permanent witch hunt on Devil Jin even after the current patch people still comment that he is op because they can't sidestep hellsweep. I have the same opinion I had after the first patch. He is gonna get slowly nerfed into oblivion one patch at a time. Pray for a single compensation buff.
  • @inksword6029
    He was never that strong to begin with, people overrated him and downplayed the true top tiers, now he is extremely nerfed and no one cares anymore
  • @Ryujin7
    We still exist but we struggle. A LOT
  • @Davidb5212
    He's fun but holy shit he's so much work to play in ranked
  • @rickanthony377
    Watching this video post patch 1.05 with actual tears in my eyes
  • @Strangz_ODT
    the nerfs are a double edged sword…I’m happy cause now people can’t complain send “carried messages, when I’m a specialist who’s played the character since T5…but also frustrating that’s he’s left with bad pokes, bad heat and bad gimmicks…took away what he didn’t need but didn’t give him back what he did need
  • @user-yx6zx1bx3f
    Now I am convinced the balancing team is crazy…..they believe in extremes have no sense of balance.
  • @UzairAli-iy5jh
    The only reason to play Devil jin now is because of his flashy combos. There are no other reasons to play him it hurts me as Devil jin main since i started playing the games. He has mid damage, no pokes, and nothing that's broken. People really overrate him and forget that he is one of the hardest character in the game
  • @simplename1693
    when i was climbing and practicing with DVJ i always felt like i had to over work something just to get a bit of high damadge. the moment i tried normal Jin i felt so much better. i thought the nerfs wasnt so bad on DVJ but now, it hurts so much
  • @Allen_Rowe
    Is fucking sad, I dont even understand why people thought he was a "boss character" and S tier. He was A+ at best. Everything you do is super fucking minus on block. Take the heat smash sure, but give us something ffs. Some frames at least.
  • @grz2916
    the lack of neutral tools make him so hard to play. i really love this character but once people learned how to counter his basic moves/setups he is significantly less threatening
  • @aephyn_
    - Make his df1 -3 ob - Reduce the start-up frames for his cd1+2 to i23 or less for a guaranteed b4 (just like how uf4 used to function) - buff back his hellsweep range/damage like it was pre nerf I think this would make the character much more viable not only in online play but also in the competitive tournament sphere.
  • @King0fS0RR0W9
    Devil jin being broken was so overrated. His heat smash overshadowed his entire kit. Because outside of heat he' alright. Yes he can still be a gimmick. Edit: I also truly believe he is the worst mishima. Reina being the best, then Jin, and Kaz
  • @Abdullah_0083
    As a devil Jin main this guy has been nerfed into oblivion so I will now main Jin
  • @Stelninja
    It hard to piolet devil jin but he has been my fav character since his releas brings out my inner edgelord and i love it
  • @AlphaNexusOmega
    I jumped shipped after the first nerf, i saw the writijg on the wall, i played devil jin in tekken 7 and played him in 8. Only good thing that came from the nerfs is i found a home in playing bryan now. Almost to blue ranks!
  • @Notwedsquid
    The devs just hate devil jin from the beginning of the games release devil jin was never op or broken at all except his heat smash they also went out of the way to nerf his hellsweep i think it was, but devil jin was never strong as people thought people just like to overreact he was no where to be seen at evo as well
  • @shinji1465
    Pls for the love God, buff his pokes and range, its actually god awful rn.
  • @dreadjr9125
    i will never let go my devil jin ever no matter how bad the nerf is
