Overview

Abducted by the twisted Red Ribbon scientist Dr Gero, the young twins Lapis and Lazuli were forcibly modified into cyborgs, going by the serial numbers Android 17 and Android 18. The two were given a single task by Gero: Kill Son Goku. Although they betrayed (and killed) their creator, they continued in this task of their own volition, only for their task to be cut short by a greater threat in the form of Cell, who absorbed the two cyborgs to attain perfection. After Cell was defeated, both androids would be restored and reformed, with Android 18 marrying Krillin while Android 17 became a park ranger.

In Dragon Ball FighterZ, Android 18 uses a combination of mix-ups, pressure, and assist attacks from Android 17 to overwhelm her opponents and open them up to further damage.

Strengths/Weaknesses

Strengths Weaknesses
  • Great oki and damage in the corner with Support Attack.
  • Powerful offense with several good lockdown and mixup options.
  • Best Level 3 in the game.
  • Uses Level 3 with best boy Krillin.
  • Most normals have short range.
  • Her own assist does not deal damage and loses to patience, but has a few good uses.
  • Poor defensive options and linear neutral game forces her to keep on the defense.
  • Without assists has a very poor neutral.

Mainly used for 2H properties to anti-air or for 2H > j.214M for combos on the ground. Can be made safe on block with j.214L.

Template:AttackDataHeader-DBFZ
  • Gains 25% Ki gauge each hit absorbed.
  • Shows up in front of the point character.
  • Absorbs hits for both the point character and any other assists.
  • The barrier WON'T cover for you if you aren't inside it. Staying around the edge and attacks with large coverage will go right through 18 directly to you.

Android 18's assist is her barrier special that defends against incoming attacks. It can be a more situational assist but it's ability to defend your point character from ranged attacks like beams can be pretty useful for setup characters like Beerus and Nappa to allow them to safely set up.

  • Drops in the perfect range to summon medium 17 for Oki

Invincible startup super. Reaches about 3/4ths screen distance, and can connect after almost any combo leaving the opponent in front of 18. Most of the damage is done during the last part, meaning the opponent can recover a fair chunk of blue life if Sparking Blast is active.
