The Z vanish should be a forced clash after 4 just like in Tenkaichi 3. Having it just based on Ki sucks. It would force people to not rely on it, and it would end in a meaningful transaction

Yajirobe, Afterimage Strike, unblockabled are why I think this game should not have had a ranked mode. The classic games are revered even with poor balancing because there wasn’t an official ranked mode. Ranked calls for balancing, and Balancing isn’t what we had in those classic games.

8:28 I think the original ultimate ninja series had the speed increase when doing those vanish chains. Who knows they may try to bring it into sparking.
They just need a way to break the chain. Like step out into a ki blast or be able to side step. And they could do something like only after your 2nd or 3rd vanish to still keep the war in there a bit.
Another difference between this and susbstitutes is that substitutes in ultimate ninja dont force you to attack. You could put in a timing mix up, or grab so they can't just substitute guaranteed.

Vanish wars are still extremely deep even with the current implementation because you can super counter instead of z-countering to conserve your Ki (at the cost of being *way* more difficult). This would mean more if there weren't so many characters with 2 sp full KI charge abilities.
30 seconds into the video and I already gotta say I agree Afro, I spent a lot of hours as a kid playing budokai tenkaichi 3 and this is it for me honestly. This game is just so good, it’s bringing all my nostalgia back and has met every expectation I’ve had.

Well, they needed to add these things so casual players have a chance to win. If someone is fundamentally ass at the game, all they have to do is spam Broly ult until they win. Helps keep them playing the game.
@@servantofcygnus It's made for scrubs regardless. I can win with it and it'll still be made for scrubs. You'll see people in C rank who have no idea how to do combos or super counters, so they use Yajirobe to stall for time. That's called being a scrub
@@Red-xvii It's in the game because the game is not supposed to be balanced. It's not different like how it was in the previous games and it was worse in BT2 because rush supers were all unblockable in that game unless you did a super specific guard method. Only difference is that those games didn't have rank.
I find it funny people playing this game are only concerned with using the strongest or most broken characters instead of who they just like playing with and get good with them. Idc how strong yajirobe is I’ll never use him simply because I don’t like the way he fights
It's not as good as you think it is. Throw ki blasts and it will stop them when they reach the top or just do a regular dragon dash to home in on them. There are many other ways to deal with it.
For watching it, sure they need to change the vanish mechanic. But for being in the fight, at the end of the day, it's about focusing and mastering the technique; fighting so fast to the point you don't even know what's going on. It might be boring to watch z-counter battles, but watching 2 players who've mastered the game is pretty fun.
focusing and mastering? dude, the vanish window is actually huge and most people who have played the game quite a bit can do it with their eyes closed based on muscle memory and sound alone.
Im going to be real, I really hope they don’t make this game hyper competitive with future updates. I feel like now a days, every game is held at a competitive stand point and it takes out the fun that we all experienced when we were kids. Budokai tenkaichi, raging blast, burst limit, we’re all games me and my brothers played together as kids just having fun and never raging over anything about the game specifically. These games are meant to be played for fun and all games are for that reason. I just don’t want to see my childhood turned into a competitive mess so I really hope they don’t change the game drastically with all these competitive player complaints of the game
Rather you like it or not this game is gonna be competitive its a fighting game times have changes old man. If shrek super slam has a competitive scene what in the world makes you think sparking zero wont have one? I don't even understand whats the problem is it being somewhat competitive brings more people to the game.
@@cammglo it can have a scene but the balancing shouldn't be catered towards it. Dragon Ball already has a competitive fighting game, it doesn't need two. The problem with making this competitive is that balancing this game with 180+ is a monumental task as soon they make balance changes people don't like they are gonna be mad. Coming from other actual esport fighting games, the balancing discussions around them are already bad enough, this game is already reaching that level and a patch hasn't even dropped yet. There is no reason the devs should feel pressured to balance this game when they already came out and said that this was not their vision for the game, and when Dragon Ball has its own proper fighting game.
@@Meiloorun You can still have this game be competitive and be unbalanced example the whole marvel vs capcom series. but The stuff ppl want patched is the cheese that makes the game not fun for competitive OR CASUAL players. Yajirobe completely making DP Battle not fun, vanish battles that go on for way too long, The crazy amount of input bugs, The AI for single player being complete shit even on the hardest difficulty, The fact that you can't see your opponent 90% of the time if you're using a big character. This is stuff that's just not fun for ANYONE
bro i just stopped playing this game online i cant do it bro its either a vanish war every fucking encounter or as soon as i press a button its up square to super counter this shit so boring ngl 🤦🏽♂️
Hear me out for vanish alternative Idea: They speed up until you've done 5, then you both have to quickly hit one of 3 options in a rock paper scizors type interaction. Grab, Ki blast, or Counter. Grab>Counter>Ki Blast>grab. If you both get the same option, you clash. If you don't choose one of the 3 options fast enough you lose the interaction.
Vanish war kinda annoying to watch. 3 things that shouldn't be in this game. 1) Instant Sparking/full ki skills 2) unblockable attacks 3) no increase difficulty window on counter vanishing. It makes the game waaaay to spam reliant with those 3 things always being prioritized and over utilized.
I agree with the vanish wars increasing in timing speed. Every button press would make it not only more fun but cinematic and truer to the anime as well. To the point where the pro players are blinking around like crazy during a match.
this game is sick thank you for doing this daily i wanna buy it but money is kinda tight so watching you play it and try the different characters is cool
I would love for ppl to start mixing up after the smash attack to make it harder to vanish out of. Like you can hold square for a delayed chase punch. You can double tap Triangle to come up behind AND you can delay that punch. You can also chase with x inside the chain at any point. I’ve done some crazy stuff putting all that together and ppl rarely can vanish out of my shit. Yall try that shit out( oh yea and I’m sure yall seen the dragon dash cancel )
I think a good simple fix without really changing the mechanic of the vanish wars is just to make each consecutive vanish use more ki that way they don't last as long
I agree about the “vanish wars” they should do something about that for competitive at the very least. It’s too predictable. Making it faster over time is genius. Subbed.
So high ranked sparking Zero is basically Vanish vanish vanish vanish vanish vanish vanish vanish vanish vanish vanish vanish vanish vanish vanish vanish vanish vanish vanish vanish vanish vanish vanish vanish vanish vanish vanish vanish vanish vanish vanish vanish vanish vanish vanish vanish vanish vanish vanish vanish vanish vanish vanish vanish vanish vanish vanish vanish vanish vanish vanish vanish vanish vanish vanish vanish vanish vanish vanish vanish vanish vanish vanish vanish vanish, super counter, full power, vanish, super counter, vanish, super counter, vanish, super counter, vanish, super counter, vanish, super counter, vanish, super counter, vanish, super counter, vanish, super counter, some hits on the back, super counter and start the vanishes all over again
@@Bro-dot-yeah I tried to be the fundamental guy but B rank and higher is literally just afterimage strike spammers, yajirobe and just unfun lol, I had to resort to caulifla and broly cheese
“Full power really is some tech” no it’s literally one of their skills. Tech (technique) is something people come up with in the game for certain characters or general gameplay that most people don’t know about. For more advanced fighting games like street fighter or Tekken new tech can be discovered for characters by players. But in this case for sparking zero “full power” skills are just a tool that certain characters have to refill their ki gauge because why wouldn’t you. Those vanish battles are constant in high level
I fully agree with the vanish take. At first I was like damn i'm good, now it gets tedious. Faster vanish per input is a needed change especially if competitive pops off
having a video to watch everyday to start my backshift has been great. You should do another tournament but with some creators who arnt the top tier like the RDC guys
A better fix for vanish wars is giving players the option to do an empty vanish instead of a vanish attack. That way either player can choose to end the war themselves or continue the war. This was in BT3 but I don't know why they didn't bring it back.
Pulling off 5 vanishes back to back needs to transition into a clash that zooms out and shows bouncing shockwaves. Just reuse the dash clash inputs.
Yes that is getting absolutely brain numbing to watch
Couldn't agree more, its making me wanna take a cat nap when it happens
agree. that or just reset to neutral. the goal has morphed from winning vanish to go into a combo/super to draining as much Ki as possible. I think BT3 had 3 vanishes max.

last fight was absolutely insane
Hate vanish wars, I want some other kind of counterplay
If you wanna be dirty about it you could revenge counter the vanish
@@meman320 yeah if I was better I would 😂 revenge counter feels so random when it goes off
NOW SEE THIS IS THE TYPE OF PLAY I NEED TO BE APART OF!!! HOLY SHIT this was fun to watch honestly lmao
Lfg!! Im getting this Thursday 😃😃😃
Genuinely the most hype i felt second hand watching a sparking video since it came out dope shit afro and bro went in fighting the sensu bean 🎉❤
Yo the drip is immaculate Afro
That final game was insane, congrats to your friend.
Day 23 of asking Afro to finish his Bloodborne playthrough.
Dbz brother
Put my fries in the bag bro
its sparking time brother, patience
Lmao . This dude Afro has hella ADHD/ADD. There's no way we are getting bloodborn or those other games finished.
we’re onto the SPARKING ZERO ARC brother
Last Jiren Clutch was crazy duuuuude!
I fought afro in this over the weekend and afro is actually really good at the game.Whoop my assss!!!!!!!
Seeing my goat Quyon getting that shout out is Amazing
They gotta fix vanish highest level play being slowed down so much by this stupid endless counter bs
bro i just stopped playing this game online i cant do it bro its either a vanish war every fucking encounter or as soon as i press a button its up square to super counter this shit so boring ngl 🤦🏽♂️
Hear me out for vanish alternative Idea: They speed up until you've done 5, then you both have to quickly hit one of 3 options in a rock paper scizors type interaction. Grab, Ki blast, or Counter. Grab>Counter>Ki Blast>grab. If you both get the same option, you clash. If you don't choose one of the 3 options fast enough you lose the interaction.
Vanish war kinda annoying to watch. 3 things that shouldn't be in this game.
1) Instant Sparking/full ki skills
2) unblockable attacks
3) no increase difficulty window on counter vanishing.
It makes the game waaaay to spam reliant with those 3 things always being prioritized and over utilized.
I agree with the vanish wars increasing in timing speed. Every button press would make it not only more fun but cinematic and truer to the anime as well. To the point where the pro players are blinking around like crazy during a match.
Nah after seeing this jus remove unblockable ultimates completely ngl…that Broly strat was sum of the most shameless gameplay I’ve ever seen
You can dodge it.
This is my first budokai game and I've been in love with it so far👌🏽👌🏽👌🏽👌🏽
"afrosenju gang, where ya at." Ahh bot comments incoming....
That intro is too good, had to sub
I like the vanish war makes me feel authentic to dbz
That isn’t authentic tho, it would’ve been a vanish clash, this is just boring to watch
Your like Goku bro, always looking for the best opponent to fight with and crossing your own limits !!! lets gooooo
I'm ngl "high level" is mad boring
this game is sick thank you for doing this daily i wanna buy it but money is kinda tight so watching you play it and try the different characters is cool
Holiday season will definitely discount this game
I would love for ppl to start mixing up after the smash attack to make it harder to vanish out of. Like you can hold square for a delayed chase punch. You can double tap Triangle to come up behind AND you can delay that punch. You can also chase with x inside the chain at any point. I’ve done some crazy stuff putting all that together and ppl rarely can vanish out of my shit. Yall try that shit out( oh yea and I’m sure yall seen the dragon dash cancel )
I think a good simple fix without really changing the mechanic of the vanish wars is just to make each consecutive vanish use more ki that way they don't last as long
For videos like this he should have the ref fit on 🎉
Watching this with them commentating convinced me to get the game
Man Vegito gameplay is boring as fuck, spam vanish and then spam Full Power
Nah the comeback at the end was CRAZY
Afro is tired of yajirobe as if he didn't make thousands of people use him by showing us the cheese technique.
It’s annoying getting him down to 1 hit just for him to get back to full health because you choked up 3-5 seconds, they need to nerf it in my opinion.
@@2kthashAlready is on the way to be nerfed
Gonna show how busted it is so it can get nerfed
I agree about the “vanish wars” they should do something about that for competitive at the very least. It’s too predictable. Making it faster over time is genius. Subbed.
So high ranked sparking Zero is basically
Vanish vanish vanish vanish vanish vanish vanish vanish vanish vanish vanish vanish vanish vanish vanish vanish vanish vanish vanish vanish vanish vanish vanish vanish vanish vanish vanish vanish vanish vanish vanish vanish vanish vanish vanish vanish vanish vanish vanish vanish vanish vanish vanish vanish vanish vanish vanish vanish vanish vanish vanish vanish vanish vanish vanish vanish vanish vanish vanish vanish vanish vanish vanish vanish vanish, super counter, full power, vanish, super counter, vanish, super counter, vanish, super counter, vanish, super counter, vanish, super counter, vanish, super counter, vanish, super counter, vanish, super counter, some hits on the back, super counter and start the vanishes all over again
Yeah tbh
Can’t be lactose intolerant when you’re high rank it’s all about the cheese
@@Bro-dot-yeah I tried to be the fundamental guy but B rank and higher is literally just afterimage strike spammers, yajirobe and just unfun lol, I had to resort to caulifla and broly cheese
That last fight was straight up skill 🤷🏽♂️🔥
“Full power really is some tech” no it’s literally one of their skills. Tech (technique) is something people come up with in the game for certain characters or general gameplay that most people don’t know about. For more advanced fighting games like street fighter or Tekken new tech can be discovered for characters by players. But in this case for sparking zero “full power” skills are just a tool that certain characters have to refill their ki gauge because why wouldn’t you. Those vanish battles are constant in high level
that intro is honestly the best i have seen in my 20ish years on youtube
Here before 100k subscribers! Keep it up my friend! This video was amazing
I fully agree with the vanish take. At first I was like damn i'm good, now it gets tedious. Faster vanish per input is a needed change especially if competitive pops off
having a video to watch everyday to start my backshift has been great. You should do another tournament but with some creators who arnt the top tier like the RDC guys
Brolly is the meta such a force and I don't feel bad like when I use the fat samurai
A better fix for vanish wars is giving players the option to do an empty vanish instead of a vanish attack. That way either player can choose to end the war themselves or continue the war. This was in BT3 but I don't know why they didn't bring it back.
I’ll let out one of my secrets , in those vanishing wars, do a ki dash it’s faster and they most like won’t be able to re act
Yajirobi was just Dom's decoy and punching bag to make SmileU feel he's gonna win.
Afro will never say the correct terms for the mechanics in this game. It's a Baby Vegeta type of trope for him. LOL
Thumbnails getting better and better 🔥
26:24 he would’ve rage quitted if it weren’t live. Voxelizing is sooo talented, right?!
29:33 edit: ok nvm he’s not being cheesy here
Vox going to super vegito and cooking without afterimage strike was refreshing
