If you vibe with a character and enjoy playing them, that should be the end of it. There's way too much focus on what's "meta" or optimal sometimes. It's supposed to be fun, after all. Everyone's got their own style and preference; embracing that makes games more diverse and interesting.
Precisely. Once my work week is over, I'm hitting the training room with Raditz, Yamcha, and DBZ Frieza. Might swap one around for Kakunsa. I just like the characters and that's how I'm gonna try and make it work~ Play for fun, friends. Also, Afro. You doin' that backflip, boy.
I've noticed Gohan ss2's Super Kamehameha is surprisingly clutch in a pinch. That startup is practically instant. You could probably beam struggle some pretty fast unblockables with it.
He's also just simply not an 8 in his GoD mode. The guys an easy 9. Honestly go into training against Full power Jiren and vice versa and you'll see what i mean. Toppo's offence is on par with an 8 but his defense is literally the same as Beerus's who has the highest defense in the game and is a 10. Blow for blow blast for blast Toppo smash's Jiren. The only reason i'd say Jiren is better is because of his buffer instant spark that's the same as MUI Goku's aka the best ability in the game. Base Toppo sucks though. Not even SSJ tier. The guys a legit 5. SSJ level blast power but his attack and defense SUCKS! The only reason he's worth a 7 is because he transforms into GoD Toppo. But then why is Base Broly a 5 when he can transform into LSSJ Broly who is a 9, i call bias. But for real tho, why does base Toppo have one of the worst defenses in the game but GoD Toppo has the best. I feel like they didn't balance check defense at all. Atk goes up accordingly as BP increases but defence is all over the place. SSJ4 Goku has the same defense as Base Goku but his atk is way higher. SSJG is just as strong as SSJ4 blow for blow despite one being a 7 and the other an 8 since SSJG does have higher defense than base Goku. SSJB just wins.
Bro doesn't lie when he say's he's going to make videos about characters. Like 10 hours ago you were like: "I'm gonna have to try Toppo!" And here it is. Well done, Senju. P.S. That intro is dope. I'm going to need the FULL 3 minute song.
@@flashtheshapeshafter I feel like we will eventually get super saiyan bardock as a dlc. Perhaps as a super saiyan dlc that gives the from to characters that never unlocked the form like nappa, raditz, etc. Or just as a free dlc(doubt lmao). But they would need to either change the instant sparking because super saiyan would make him like a 6 cost, or idk. He would be very strong though.
You play a god level Bardock 😂😭 also watching kid gohan absolutely trade grabs with God of Destruction Toppo was absolutely hilarious, it looks so silly
I love the video and the content, watching you play Sparking zero is like having my own experience playing, I don't own the game since im 17 with no job, but soon hopefully I get to play myself and fight you in ranked. All love big dog!!
32:32 and 33:42 i was dying laughing man afro just got immersed on the game like he was himself the chracter XD i love the reactions hahah. Now seriously this game is really really good and what we all fans were awaiting for, love your videos afro.
Went on a crazy run with teen gohan, bardock, kid Goku, and scouter vegeta. Bardock and Gohan melt life bars with those instant sparks and once their team is damaged I bring in vegeta and go ape 😂
Tbf the 3 skill explosive waves help defend against unblockables if someone is trying to hit you with one. Its how run through Z Broly and Beerus' shit with Bojack. Barrier is just really good for dealing with unblockable ultimates.
@@yoshitsune5691You can but online the timing is iffy. I do it easily on local but with the controller delay online it’s more risk than reward for me lol
The perception spammers are so annoying but I just gotta learn how to fight around it. Once I have a means of defeating them I’m good and I’ll be able to make it past B4 in singles ranked. I’m C1 in DP rn
For the buttons bug, if you go to options >> controls >> Set player 2 as the same controls as player 1 that should work/fix the issue until they actually fix it, its worked for me since implementing it for the last 13 games.
Bardock so sick, it's weird and kind of funny that they really insist on never letting him have interactions with his firstborn son, 20:49 super Saiyan bardock😢
I dont know if i ever rewatched an intro on youtube. FIRE! I also love Bardock. Right now im training with him in single player ranked. He will for sure come on my DP Team.
Less than a minute gang Okay but seriously, can you please do more story mode? You always give the best Reactions and I wanna see your reactions to the what ifs
Holding perception while you have 2 skill points lets you smack away sum bean supes and even rush supers. haven't heard people talking bout this plz throw it in a video. android 19 gero can absorb beams with this too. super cool mechanic that everyone should be using
Hey Afro, another defensive option to the super dragon dash besides the side step is to press square+X (A+X on Xbox) at the same time that you would normally side step. Free knock back on aggressive opponents
@@DNDLitooolmao go try the basic training it’s actually pretty good at helping you with moves and practicing the timing just note it’s easier in there than real battle
As much as I love the game, in its current state I’m having a hard time keeping with it between the yajirobe spam, giant spam, waiting 5 mins at a time for a match, and everyone using the exact same characters in ranked singles. It’s just not very fun to play.
Team Idea: Defenders of Earth -Chiaotzu, Roshi, Krillin, Tien, and Piccolo (Uub can replace Roshi & Chiaotzu if they're too weak) (Yamcha can substitute for Krillin if you don't like short characters)
I was trying out different themed teams earlier and this was one. It’s fun but gets rough when the god level characters come out lol without a good anchor you’re gonna struggle. Unless you’re a turbo gamer lol
I was rocking Bardock in ranked solo A rank and it was a struggle. He’s good but against ultra instinct goku or Gogeta you better bring your A game to even stand a chance. In DP battles he’s absolutely a clutch pick for 4 damn points
Afro, you just fighting teaches me a lot about the game and it makes me very thankful. I hope I can make it up to A rank soon and get a match against you. Have a good one man
Is it just because I’m in the C ranks that people just relentlessly rush at you and Z dash behind you? I like how the game is actually slowed down and you think your actions through on the higher ranks
Bardock is definitely top 10, maybe top 8. The fact that his instant spark is truly instant AND an explosive wave is incredible. I dont think any other characters have that.
Did anybody notice at 18:45 the physics of this game where he sends vegeta through the building hole is still there and he chases after him. It was like watching the anime this shit is beautiful
bardock also has the spin so 3 squares and side triangle will turn they around added with the instant spark he has one of the best kits for 4 dp if u don't let him die he does a lot as well as videl please try her on a team afterimage strike or instant spark with a turnaround combo after 2 hits she carries the beginning of all my matches
It looked to me like he stopped holding the charge button when he shot the ki blast when he and my brother was playing yesterday because he couldn't do the super dash thing but I noticed that the menu was leaving the screen when he double pressed X telling me he was letting go of L2 early
You should learn to super counter during z vanish battle, that will break the balance and you will always win, plus that will take your supercounter to another level, been trying to get it consistent and it is worth it, just when the sound 9f the vanish hits flick the sitck up and press square after the flick but dont let it pressed, just a quick press
No seriously, Bardock and Raditz not having dialog seems crazy to me lol
That should say something about them
I mean even in the BT3 , they had a dialog....Maybe you gotta use the other Bardock like the Super One since he is canon?
This shows that Bardock played favorites LOL

I've stolen so many games with father son kamehameha, the hitbox is insane
