The General Dragon Ball FighterZ Thread v2 (Saiyan Certified)

Anything that can take over the neutral game would be good. Just forcing them to block could still be good.

No worse than A.Gohan’s instant lows from the air.

For what its worth… although they are general sorta nonsense VJUmp did come out and say they made a mistake for their magazine on his stats.

Well if you go by that explosion graphic those lighting bolts are counting as “fireballs” if we are to go by the general norm of the game. So one would assume you can fly through those off hand. Anyway nothing to interesting there said though other than what was already said.

Broly’s Fireball, Tien’s Dodonpa, SSB Vegeta’s Big Bang Attack, and Android 21’s fireball all use that graphic, and they’re all beam level moves. I wouldn’t use that as an assumption.

Just rewatched the Fused Zamasu episodes.

What if those lightning bolts are his normals? He wasn’t really making many physical attacks when he was fighting in that form.

Looking at what he does in the show I would say that just by source material it’ll be almost impossible for him to not be the first actual ranged character of the game. Whether he’ll be good at it enough to be strong enough to be a regular in tournaments remains to be seen. Wouldn’t be surprising for super dash and vanish to still beat most of his ranged stuff pretty easily or just him be another character that converts long things immediately into those things, but there’s at least a really good shot for something different for once.

It would make sense if he has powerful zoning tools. The dude barely threw fists in that from until he turned into his corrupted state.

Can’t let the fists of the most divine and beautiful of the gods be sullied by those filthy ningen.

Clutch is this weekend just in case people may not be aware

Man I’m really starting to hate homing dash on this game. WAY to fucking powerful. Beats my air forward dashes in startup, beats my air and ground backdashes in startup, so now I have to move slow to respect the damn thing. Also beats basically all dash up 2M moves so after all that a lot of my game is gone since I like to try and play fundamentally.

But wait! It gets even worse. Mash LLL
Is way to strong with some characters. Literally getting AA’d by Goku Black tien and bardock mash LLL… and of course it moves forward super far and of course it it’s easy as shit to block confirm into a safe special. So basically scrubs get easy mode footsies tool that heat seeks! Easy mode combos! Easy mode confirms! Easy mode getting up with all the different tech options available!

It’s really hard for me to figure out where my skill on this game should be invested. Neutral at a lower levels is nothing but an RPS reaction test of beam/homing dash/unga move and not knowing when you can attack because the game is so fast and the lag is so bad that recognising -frames becomes hard as shit because terrible drop buttons everywhere and have no timing to focus on.

Like in old school the way I beat terribles was to let them beat themselves… but in this game with the lag…
Can’t do that. Shits terrible.

If you want to win with fundamentals alone, you should go with the top tiers. 16, gohan, cell, goku black. Tack on Vegeta assist and you’ll be safe at low levels

Super Dash kind of defines this game though, take away what it does and you shift the gameplay back to something that other games have already done better.

You basically have to screen your online opponents in game one to see how they are using SD. Gotta learn to love that 2H lifestyle until your opponent shows you that you’ve got liberty to mix it up.

Man, I use krillin/gotenks/vegeta now. It’s the best team I’ve used as far as effectiveness. Atleast tenks and vegeta are top tier so… yeah.

I don’t even know what constitutes low or high in this game on pc. I’ve played 2 days of ranked and taken a bunch of losses and am at 230k or so. But I’m beating people that are 500. One of the best players in our area is 750k… but I don’t think he plays online that much. This game is fucking weird though. I’ve been beating this 480k cell vegeta user and swear to god the dude gets 1100 for beating me, I lose 750 for losing… and when I win I get a whopping 250… like fucking nothing. The people around my current rank are giving me like 3-5k for a win but a guy that is double my rank is giving me 250… game is retarded as fuck.

I’ve never seen a game which promotes scrubby behaviour as much as this one. There are so many ragequitters, light mashers who always spam it, even on wakeup, SD spammers and recently I’ve constantly been playing against players who just run away and turtle with assists and try to catch me with a SD when I go in.

Light autocombos tracking is bs, same with super dashes. Also agree with the part about recognizing when it’s safe to attack. It’s baffling to me that so many moves look punishable, when they aren’t, when in GG ArcSys made it visually very clear when you can counter attack. Except in cases like Ky’s frametraps. Combos are very standardized and so is damage.
