You can also option select, if you do 2M5M then 9L+H it gives you H on block (which you can then cancel into S or a special) and j.L on hit to continue the combo.

Cereal?!? Gonna go muscle memory this up. Ace tech, thanks!

Also, I read all 5L’s are 6f’s btw

Hmm, it’s hard to press L and H at the same time on a controller without pressing M/S also, lol.

 

[BurdaA]

You can but it depends on a lot of factors. Like you can cancel into the uOH that is +0 on block, but I’m pretty sure they can 2H in the start up. You can cancel into a special depending on the char, but could push them too far away and it also depends on the special. Obviously can use assists as well.

Exactly, and therein lies another mind game I guess. Opponents “reacting” with a 2H will get blown up by other options (you can also cancel 2MM into 5H oc). Just don’t abuse 6M.

Must be honest, I’m largely theory crafting, as I’m up to my nipples in lab-time right now. I’ll get more fighting in soon as I’ve got my team sorted. So much to learn... Enjoying this game on a whole ‘nother level....

 

[Juggs]

Can you not hit confirm 2MM into something safe oB though? I thought L2MM is for punishing as L startup’s faster for tighter punishes.

Also I meant whiff punishing. A.Gohan’s 2M for instance has hella range.

Nice, really good to know!

 

[TamedLizard]

Not sure if it's common knowledge or not but 6M (universal overhead) and iAD H both scale combos hard af. I'm talking like minus 800-1000 damage depending on character and combo.

Really? Is it specifically iAD H or just jH in general? Very weird coming from games where jump in attacks give you more damage.

I know, right? Not entirely up for learning stick/hitbox either...

 

[TrulyAmiracle]

lights, air normals, uOH, superdash, vanish and assists all scale your combo more than normal.
Basically everything that's not a medium or heavy lol. You can stil get decent damage but M/H starters are always gonna be more damaging.

Yes except #16 which is 7f, but his 5L has a weird priority thing where if it clashes with another L on the same frame it wins.

I blame fuckin Twitter man, I'll never get why everyone decided to settle on that shit platform for tech.
What's hilarious though is people are scrambling now to basically collect everything there making convoluted sites like burningmeter.com and "moments" collections coz no one can keep track of the info with how twitter works, it's dumb coz that's what forums like this are for to begin with.

Hmm, it’s hard to press L and H at the same time on a controller without pressing M/S also, lol.

if it helps it's weird on stick too, very odd finger combination that I've never had to use before lol.
It's super worth it though if you don't want to throw out raw 5Ms on block, it's either this or have godlike reactions to jump cancel on hit or cancel it on block.
Map R3 to L+H, the only real answer here.

Ah I gotchu, agreed oc

Just tested, it’s both.

Yeah, I’m trying to get people to come here and post stuff, but it’s not working. I mean to be fair this IS a NRS site, but @STORMS did a good job making the DBFZ forum and character forums.

Super good thing coming soon. Soon as in possibly the next few days.

Ooooooh, my interest is certainly piqued! Thanks @STORMS

That’s pretty interesting, useful in +1 situations I’d possibly?

Yeah I don’t get it it, but tbh I’m a Twitter heretic, don’t even have an account. I try not to shit on what other people are doing, as long as it doesn’t affect me. But it’s starting to affect me.

Thanks, that does help!

Just checked, don’t think you can. On PS4 at least.

 

[villainous monk]

I'm about to head off to work soon so I'll have a chance a little later on to try and get more clarity for everyone.

I'm even thinking of doing my own guide for lab stuff as well since there seem to be 3 or 4 different Arc types of characters.

Glad to see @Juggs thread move along so well and with out any drama controversial tings (knock on wood) lul.

This is definitely bringing me back to tym!

Quick question. I was messing around in the lab this morning and I swear I did a AA into a combo starter and used 9m to extend but I already had done a extra 9m and I was higher on the screen.

Do AA give you an extra double jump?

 

[TamedLizard]

Really? Is it specifically iAD H or just jH in general? Very weird coming from games where jump in attacks give you more damage.

I think jH in general. Although, I believe jH scales slightly less than 6M. Yeah I didn't notice until I started labbing assist links off 6M. Bnb using both assists into level 3 super with Beerus only did about 4.2K IIRC using 6M as a starter.

Same combo, even starting with a light, does at least like 5K lol.

Ok, I feel like an old man who doesn't understand technology at this point. Am I insane or is there no way to play private matches or even play a longer set than 2 out of 3 with someone online?

 

[God Confirm]

SSGSS Goku / Vegeta / Yamcha hype here boys. Time to grind out some tech

ring matches is the only way afaik. Which is goofy to set up as private coz of the password nonsense.

The online functions are this game's main fault atm, hopefully they figure something out soon.

Here's a few links I've been following for awhile now to further explain the game.

This is the basic gude to the system mechanics to DragonBall Fighters Z

This is a quick damage guide I found.

I claim NO CREDIT FOR THIS I only want to post this as an extra avenue for everyone to go on to find the answers they need.

What is iAD ?Question mark?
