[@servebotfrank4082]

Real quick, most of the characters in the game could universal fuzzy, you just needed a j.L that hit at a downwards angle. That's why in season 2 you often saw Kid Buus go high in the air, do delayed level 1, call in Gohan, who would then jump up and snap you out so they could just go straight into it. Even characters who were considered bad (Gogeta) were considered usable because it was very very easy for them to either fuzzy or setup the fuzzy for a character who could do it.

@@MoldyBagel it's much easier to implement if a game has replay features, which fighterz does. And arcsys said before they could've added it at any point but bamco doesn't let them.

A little late to Dragonball, so got into Fighterz post season 1. I'm impressed BN worked so hard to improve the game! If it makes you feel better about the tall boy abuse, certain combos like some of Frieza's just dont work on them. My favorite setup has always been to sticky energy ball right next to a character. It usually works well, as it was slightly too high to be stopped with normal attacks.. unless you were someone like Z Broly or 16. Attempting to do this means a punch in the face or worse, and it can't justifiably be patched out.
