It's all so very confusing.
TG can extend with a Vanish, the ground sequence lets me get a lv1 for around 5400 damage. 2 bars though. Not a fan.

edit, got it to 5695. Lets call it 57 to make me feel better. 2 bars, 57% in the corner, but loses the corner.. Still not a huge fan. Probably better to cash out the 4500 meterless and call it as day.

Anyone bored and want to try and optimize? Notation (both types.. though the numpad is easier imo) is as follows:

Teen Gohan - Corner - Meterless and 2 bar

2MM j.M-236.M LH SD j.LL j.LLL
cr.M M j.M-qcf.M LH SD j.LL j.LLL

= 4457 pushes them downward and below you back towards grounded corner.

2MM j.M-236.M L.H SD j.LL j.LLS-236.M
cr.M.M j.M-qcf.M LH SD j.LL j.LLS-qcf.M

= 4720 recovers much faster and above you. Likely to lose corner as they will tech out. Even if you keep you'll most likely land before they do.

(2bar) 2MM j.M-236.M LH SD j.MH Vanish TinyDash 2MM-214.L-236.L+M
(2bar) cr.M M j.M-qcf.M LH SD j.MH Vanish TinyDash cr.M M-qcb.L-qcf.L+M

= 5700, but absolutely loses corner. Can add lv3/5 instead of lv1 to go hame.

As a general reference you can do a basic corner combo (2MM j.M2H~H j.LL j.LLL land into lv3) for 5630. Its one bar more and about 1% less damage, but it keeps the corner and its silly easy to do and of course, offers the option to lv5 for 6700)

General notes: They must fall back to the ground after the j.m-236.M part. The timing is more generous than it seems on the LH pick up as they fall. You want to delay hitting your L for a bit. It's not particularly tight, but the timing is slower than it feels like. You may want to try and get L out as soon as Gohan lands, but you can afford to give it a few frames. The SD after the LH must be manual. If you try to just tap heavy again it wont work. The manual SD timing is also rather slow after the heavy and you have to wait a moment. The combo is actually really easy. Works on all small bodies as far as I know.

Having a blast with the game thus far and was wondering if any of you could critique me in the neutral. Having a tough time scouting out a lot of punishes and opportunities for the super dash or the assist to help initiate pressure.

I've done tag combos ending it with Piccolo's mb demonic chop. It always end with Piccolo facing it the other side and the super always miss because of that. Poor Piccolo.

APPARENTLY! HOW DA FUCK DO YOU JOIN A RING MATCH ?QUESTION MARK? @axcelerate and moi need help! Thank ya kindly in advance ;)
You create a ring match lobby. Your friend, who’s in the same lobby as you, goes to your lobby character and presses A to join, simple as that.

According the the wasted 45min trying NO THE FUCK IS NOT! U would think its simple as that, but some some stupid ass reason, it kept giving us "No Room Found" message when trying to join each other's room. We even tried different critierias, passwords, going to the China Room ro be the only 2 ppl, even Arena Match AND WE STILL DIDN'T GET PAIRED!

Discovered this is a very common issued according to Ms Google but no remedy of the situation...so whoop there it is!

Guess we will try again in an hour but thats the T.

"One" of u, not both, just keep restarting the game, no need for restarting ps4 or any of that other shit, if your familar with mmo and how they load u on different "instances" it seems like kind of the same thing. This has worked for me ever since day 1.

No rooms found, joiner restarts game, attempt to join ring match again, repeat as needed

So one of us just closes the application (game) while the other still has the room up then ?

We're all from Earthrealm. If not, cool pic brah.
Frieza / Goku / x

help me pick a third, want an assist that works in the neutral (basically not Kid Buu / Yamcha), nothing else is important. Don't really want to play 16. Nor Vegeta.

Things I'm considering:



Piccolo assist is fun, strong, and he makes a good anchor. He's kinda weird to play though and will take some getting used to.

Trunks has some sick shit, has a perfect assist, might be the kind of character who you don't want third though?

Gohan either one, prefer Teen Gohan. This assist is real nice and big damage enders are fun. Not sure how good anchor Teen Gohan is either though? That neutral may be tricky with no assist. He's hype but.

Krillin similar reasons to Teen Gohan, and playing a real keepaway Frieza + Beam + Sensus could be a lot of fun, and he has big damage super and the best chip damage super in the game which is aces for my playstyle.



I'm leaning towards Krillin honestly.

Im a big believer in playing who u like and making them work, so i'd say do krillen, he also has that destructo disk which u can pour levels into and probably benefit from anchor.


With saying that though....

Adult gohan is an amazing anchor, his assist is situational tho, very good for block strings or covering hurtboxes but timing specific as combo extenders


Teen gohan does have a level 5 but i really feel his best spot is point cuz of his having to work harder to get in. Once hes in tho hes real good as well.


Trunks could work as an anchor i guess cuz his lvl 3 is ridiculous, but his mix ups with spin really do benefit from having an assist.

Dnt know picolo or really played any so ehhh



Now frieza makes a good anchor himself with golden and sparkling combo, just putting that out there.

Yeah I’d say Krillin if you’re leaning that way anyway. You’ll only end up trying it later... forge him while the team’s iron is hot.

@God Confirm go for Krillin/Lil Gohan. Main thing though I think it should be Frieza/?/Goku coz all the characters you listed are weak anchors where Goku can manage.


Any decent Anti-Goku Black tech out there?
You can punish Kamehameha if you’re in the corner by some quick moves or fast supers, or reflect if he does 5S into kamehameha to punish midscreen.
Characters like hit or Kid buu can straight up punish it anywhere without the reflect.
Unless the teleport is covered by an assist (or off of knockdown) you can jump out with a j.L or M or if you have the proper read SD and you’ll follow him for a punish no matter which teleport he did.
God slicer (the pew pew flying blade move) is safe but it is your turn after, just gotta catch him before he fully lands coz at that point he’s no longer negative.
Do lots of empty jumps with block or airdashes into block coz you don’t want to contest that stupid 2H, but you can bait it and then punish as they always expect it to hit.
If you have a diagonal air ki blast it can work but the spacing to land it and not get clipped by 2H is risky, what I do is neutral jump into j.S instead of getting into the no Flex zone he has over his head. Buffer into vanish for a combo or pressure if it connects.

Anything specific giving you trouble?

Hit's 236S AND 5S can punish any projectile power. You want Hit's 236S into L to switch sides, when you're cornered. Don't know about Kid Buu's, as I have roughly some troubles against him.
