Team

Note: none of the builds below is the definitive best out of the suggested ones, the fighters highlighted below are just all strong enough to put up a serious argument to be on the team, so they're all listed. Also, "Bench" Fighters aren't necessarily worse than the "Core" Fighters, as the choice of which ones to use is dependant on the matchup.

The Dragon Balls in the LF icons indicate the stars required for them to be considered Core options. If a LF doesn't have the Dragon Ball, it means it's core regardless of Stars.

  • This Fighter is just massively powerful and consistent, thanks to high Damage Buffs, Healing, Damage Reduction, Arts Draw Speed, Special Gauge that makes him draw a Special Move every combo... did I mention he can also make you coffee?
  • His Crisis Effects are just as absurd as the rest of his toolkit, as he gets access to Lock-In and Element Neutral for a limited time as soon as one of his allies dies, and he draws an Ultimate Move when he's the Last Man Standing, other than also being able to draw another one through Main Ability. Essentially, it's just very hard to outlast this Fighter.

  • He's a resourceful Offensive Fighter, as he has some of the best Combo continuation tools in the game thanks to stackable Arts Draw Speed and numerous other ways to draw cards, which allows him to continuously put pressure on Opponents while inflicting Damage Received Damage Debuffs on opponents. Also, his Ultimate Move is unexpectedly one of the hardest hitting moves in the Game, because of the Slice Damage Buff he gets on Main Ability activation, which scales differently compared to other Buffs in the Game. His only real flaw is the lack of meaningful Anti-Special Cover Effects, which limit his combo potential by quite a bit, but he's so good in general that it feels like more of the lack of a cherry on top rather than a real flaw.
  • Defensively, he's generally a nice Fighter. While asking him to consistently Tank hits is a tough task in a Red focused Meta, his Endurance comes in handy more times than not, and his Counter is a decent tool to stall if the situation is right ( although, it's very inconsistent and definitely something you can't rely on ).

  • He's a death machine. Huge Offensive Buffs, pretty much permanent neutral typing against Teams that have at least a Super Saiyan, and devastating Lock-In Effects are all he needs to wreck havoc in the most wicked way possible. 

  • His Ultimate Move is on the weaker side, and he's not the most Durable Fighters, so beware of that.

  • He's able to immediately put a lot of pressure on opponents right from the start of the Match thanks to his initial Anti-Cover Effects, which make him basically unstoppable against Teams with no Purple Fighters if he's able to land a Combo early. By mid-game, he's generally able to fill his gauge, which gives him access to one of the few truly Game-changing moves in the Game, namely an Ultimate Move with Element Disadvantage Nullification and strong enough to one-hit-kill almost any opponent in the game, coupled with a Main Ability that empties the opponent's Vanish Gauge.
  • He's less Tanky than one would expect, since he's much more fragile than his Damage Reduction Buffs imply, but he's not a total glass cannon thanks to his healing capabilities.

  • He's a quite strong Offensive Fighter with stalling capabilities that are basically unmatched in the Meta, as his Gauge-tied Dodge mechanic is a powerful tool to control the opponents' moves, that he's able to frequently take advantage of since he can generate his Gauge quite easily.
  • While he might not have never-ending Offensive resources of other Fighters in the Meta, he can still be really Effective Damage wise thanks to his strong Special/Ultimate Moves, and consistent Damage Buffs all around.

  • By virtue of his massive Zenkai stats and stacking Damage Reduction Effects, he's an incredibly bulky Fighter. Combined with his Healing Effects, he'll be able to take plenty of hits despite not being a Defensive Fighter by role.
  • He might not have the resourceful Offensive tools of most Fighters released in 2022, but his raw Offensive power more than makes up for it, especially since few Moves in the Meta can compare to his Main Ability-amped Special Move.
