Guide to beat Azazel - easiest method!

[Execta]

EASY WAY TO BEAT AZAZEL WITH ANY CHARACTER:

Go to Settings in the main menu. Go to Game options. Change difficulty to "Easy", number of rounds to "1" and round lenght to "30s" (minimum). Now go and fight your way to Azazel with your chosen character.

When you're fighting Azazel himself, try to inflict even a little damage to him but while doing this, hold down / constantly to block any incoming attacks. When you've dealt some damage to him, keep blocking and just wait for the round timer to go to zero. When you have more health left than Azazel at the end of the round, you will win.

Beware of his grabbing laser attack though, it cannot be blocked. Another hard to block -move is Azazel's "tail move" where he knock you off to ground with his tail. You should crouch and block but it's hard. So just hope he doesn't do these moves.


This "cheat" was invented by me. I thought it would be useful as its own thread since everybody's been asking all the time about Azazel and so on. And I'm 100 % sure this is definitely the easiest way to beat this guy. I could upload a video right now where I beat Azazel with any character that I haven't even ever tried, lol...

I`ll give it a go as other methods haven`t worked for me, its one of the few trophies I need to 100% it

mmmmmmm... dunno, still not convinced it's easier.

On the assumption you're doing it with a character you're rubbish with, if he gets in a few lucky hits, (which he has a good chance of doing) he'll knock your health down. Then you have to go back on the offensive, with a character you're no good with. If that's the case, why not just go all out offensive anyway?

Im sure some people will find this a good tip, but for me I'll pass and go on the attack.

Is blocking attacks in a fighting game a "cheat"?

No it's tactics. The player chooses when to block and when to attack. The key to winning is knowing when to do when.

This is not the easiest way to beat Azazel. He's not even all that hard to beat in the first place. I found sidestepping far more effective, which also means his laser misses you.

If you've never played fighting games before, you'll struggle anyway. And if you have played fighting games before, especially a Tekken game, you can go all out offensive and still beat an opponent you've never played against. It's all about timing - that's really the secret to fighting (and most) games.

I set my game mode options similar to that suggested but I also turned block damage on as Azazel blocks alot. I then used Kazuya and spammed the leg spin move, beat him easily with this.

WTF? Seriously? You guys suck if you think this isn't the fastest and easiest method? Even my brother got the Gallery Completionist trophy and he has only 1 platinum (Tekken 6) and like probably only 500 trophies and he isn't even really into them. It took him one afternoon to get like 2/3 of the ending movies for the characters.

Azazel is easy to beat with any character without this method here. But I guess it's a good look to those who aren't good in this game against him.

O.....kay...

You do realise that there's more than one way to beat Azazel don't you? We have our methods, and you have yours. They both get the job done. We appreciate you sharing your method with us, but some of us would rather use a different method.

Im not saying which method is better for everyone, because everyone is different, and will have a different take on it. We're discussing possible methods here.

Also, your gallery completionist trophy can be gained by just running off the train in Nina's stage, so it's no surprise you can open up 2/3 of the trophies in an afternoon.

saying we "suck" as we prefer one method over another, isn't really going to get you far, so keep those opinions to yourself, and we can move along happily.
