Yamcha better do the loving pose

21 looks cool but I'm a little bit disappointed they're adding in OG characters when there's so many already existing DB characters they could put into this game.

They need more female characters because apparently Bulma isn't allowed to beat up anyone but Vegeta.

I hope that somehow Tien is the most busted character in the game. After the series poo poo on that guy for-literally-ever it would be funnier to me then the idea of Yamcha being S-tier.

My mind instantly jumped to the Spider-Man Venom instead and wondered how baseball fit into that.

It's either GG venom clone or a weird Dial-a-combo character with all his stupid wolf fang fist variants.

It's more I can't think of any Tales character that has that huge combination of 80's hair, hoola hoop earrings, enormous glasses, and, for some reason, opera gloves.

She looks like she escaped from the set of late 80's/early 90's teen sitcom.

I can think of at least one anime from that timeframe that she would into nicely.

Yeah, she fits in very well with Dragon Ball characters from that time period. Is a good design.

also this confirms we're up to 15 playable characters. given that these characters are going to be revealed fully at tgs, we're probably due for a 20ish character launch roster at minimum.

21 isn't confirmed as playable yet lol

im really hoping for somewhere in the 24 range for launch at least since this ia 3v3 game :/

considering that here are already more playable characters than in ggxrd at launch and how far they are in their development process, they're either making characters more quickly through a better process, or they have more resources to develop characters with at least.

I don't like YOUR design, mister.

It's probably gonna be something around 25 characters on release. They ARE a bit simpler than the average GG character, plus they got to cut some corners doing two Gokus/Vegetas.

This is obvious but they don't even have to make original character designs. I don't think going to the upper 20's is out of the question.

The game isn't just doing homing dash over and over is it. I remember watching some tournament a few weeks ago and it was almost literally just homingdashhomingdashhomingdashhomingdash. I hope that's just the equivalent of month 1 Bison's doing dash into throw or dash into HK when SFV first came out.

homing dash is countered by raw launch on reaction and its really easy to do. it seems like something you do mid-pressure, for combo extenuation, or to whiff punish specific moves. you're gonna see a lot of people use it though because they wanna press buttons since pressing buttons is fun and as it goes unpunished, its the funnest way to play the game.

Homing dash is easy to see, maybe probably minus but safe on block and everyone has a upper-body invincible move to blow it up, so nah, that's just people doing the Easy Thing.

If they want women on the cast they gotta reach a bit deeper, though.
