Overview
Gohan is a well-balanced Card that can adapt to numerous situations, under the right conditions. Gohan touts an impressive Leader Skill, a base form with numerous DEF options, and a Transformation that turns this Card into a juggernaut.
Players should note that Gohan does -- unfortunately -- require a Trunks Card to Transform, and Gohan has some questionable Link Skills. A few inconveniences aside, Gohan is an impressive Card with a balanced toolkit that players should not have that much difficulty making the most of.
Strengths
In his base form, Gohan is a versatile fighter that has numerous DEF options thanks to his Super ATK raising his DEF for 1 turn, by 50%, on top of a 100% ATK & DEF Buff. Likewise, if players find themselves in danger, Gohan gains the ability to reduce damage by 58% when player HP drops below 59%.
What makes Gohan interesting in his base form is his ability to provide Bond of Master and Disciple allies with +1 Ki and a 30% DEF Buff. While this does not make Gohan the best support Card, it’s a welcomed bonus.
When Gohan Transforms his toolkit shifts to a more ATK centered Card. Super Saiyan Gohan’s Super ATK now stacks ATK, and Gohan gains a 100% ATK Buff, no DEF Buff. However, despite the loss of a starting DEF Buff Gohan now reduces all Damage received by 58% with no HP restriction, making him quite the tank.
Likewise, Gohan loses his support capabilities and instead each Bond of Master and Disciple allies, on the same turn, give Gohan +1 Ki and a 30% ATK & DEF Buff. So on a Bond of Master and Disciple Team Gohan is quite the hard-hitting tank. If players are fortunate enough to go against an Android enemy, then Gohan has a guaranteed additional Super ATK which allows for more opportunities to Stack ATK and deal Damage.
Gohan leads the Bond of Master and Disciple Category, but what makes this Card impressive is that it gives the same Buffs to the Hybrid Saiyans Category and making it the best leader for both Categories.
Weaknesses
While Gohan is amazing in his Super Saiyan form the caveat with his Transformation is that this Card requires a Trunks ally, one that is not Kid or GT. While it is not difficult to have a Trunks ally on the majority of Gohan’s Categories, with the exception being Goku’s Family, it is a restriction players should take note.
Without his Transformation, Gohan loses out on some significant ATK and DEF options. Gohan is not terrible in his base form, but players lose out on a lot without the Transformation.
Gohan’s Ki Links are not the best as both in his Super Saiyan and base form Gohan does not generate a lot of Ki. Luckily when Gohan Transforms his Passive Skill provides himself with Ki, but players must have Bond of Master and Disciple allies on the same turn to avoid Ki Shortage
As for Gohan’s other Link Skills, they are a mixed bag with “Saiyan Warrior Race” and “Experienced Fighters” possibly being the most underwhelming. Overall, Gohan does not have the worst Link Skills, but they are far from being the best.
Synergy
Gohan is quite the powerhouse thanks to his well balanced ATK & DEF options, but players will find the best Team has this Card alongside at least one Trunks Card. Gohan shines with his Transformation, which is not difficult to achieve thanks to his numerous categories.
Gohan is probably best ran as a leader thanks to leading two strong Categories and allows for players to build a Team that maximizes his Passive Skill Buffs.
