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.

Focal Points

  • Universe Survival is finally thriving thanks to the addition of a few Fighter that can single-handedly decide Matches through their Offensive capabilities.
  • Using  Super Gogeta in the Leader slot is very useful in this Red-centric Meta.

  • 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.

  • While his Endurance being conditional can be annoying some times, restricting its activation based on whether or not the opponent uses a Rising Rush is one of the best conditions possible, as that's usually when Endurance is needed the most.
  • He's a decent all around Fighter, boasting good defense and above average Offensive potential through stackable Buffs, Faint mechanics, and AoE Damage. He might feel a bit slow at times since he relies on the opponent to Rush to get a big chunk of his Buffs, but other than that his kit doesn't have any noticeable flaw.

  • This Fighter combines unfair Offensive Capabilities with overpowered Match control Abilities such as Vanish Regain and Strike Card lock to become a threat that's very hard to play around.
  • What truly makes him unique is the fact he just always keeps going once he gets a combo in, thanks to multitude of Green cards he draws even throughout a single sequence, and the Arts Draw Speed Effects he's able to stack up, so don't ever expect him to be out of ammo.

  • He's a massive Offensive weapon, as he combines huge Offensive Buffs with excellent card draw Abilities, and some Anti-Cover Effects which make him quite consistent. Also, Anti-Armor Blast Cards make him particularly deadly against some of the most dangerous Fighters in the game.

  • He might not be very durable, but he heals so much throughout a Match that it makes him able to take a few hard hits.

  • 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.
