Overview
"My power is rising. It's overflowing!" | |
Lore: | The Legendary Super Saiyan born with a power-level of 10,000, Broly was considered too dangerous to live by King Vegeta, and was condemned to be executed alongside his father Paragus. In an act of sheer luck, Broly and his father survived Planet Vegeta's destruction. In order to live in secrecy, Paragus used energy restraining technology and mind control to keep Broly from rampaging. However, Broly is always triggered by the name "Kakarot", no matter how restrained he is. Causing chaos everywhere he went, he would hunt down Kakarot, the Saiyan that cried constantly next to him in the Saiyan nursery and drove him to insanity. He would be defeated on three occasions: first by Goku (AKA Kakarot), then by Goku's sons, and finally, by Goten, Trunks, and their allies when he was resurrected as "Bio-Broly". |
Oops! All Armor
Almost all of Broly's attacks have Ki Blast guard point and at least one hit of armor, absorbing non-Super strikes and projectiles, but not Vanish. Though there are a few caveats:
- Armor comes with higher initial proration value, reducing his potential damage.
- Normal attacks' armors only apply if they're the first attack of the string. He cannot utilize the armor property during a blockstring without using specials.
- Air normals' armors lose specifically to 2H, but not other head invulnerable attacks.
Playstyle
Broly Broly is a massive brute who uses a combination of powerful blows, command grabs, and attacks imbued with super armor to punish his opponents.
Pros
Cons
- Outstanding Neutral: Arguably the best neutral in the game. His Ki Blasts beat every other non-beam Ki Blast in the game, he can nullify counterzoning completely with Powered Shell, and his armored moves have great range which allow him to bully his way in. He also has an anti-air command grab in Gigantic Strike, which is a rarity in this game.
- Movement: Not as limited in terms of movement, as he benefits greatly from game mechanics for his archetype.
- Absurd Pressure: Versatile pressure options, with good blockstrings and a command grab in Gigantic Claw, making him a nightmare to deal with in the corner.
- Super Armor: Broly's massive amount of armor on some of his buttons and all of his specials makes him a force to be reckoned with during +0 and scramble situations.
- Superb Assists: All three of Broly's assists have great utility. A deflects Ki blasts and covers approaches well, B is a great combo and blockstring filler that can also be used to bait Super Dash, and C is an armored tracking assist.
- Unique Level 3: Gigantic Meteor is one of the most flexible level 3 supers in the game, which he can also combo off of.
- Poor Combo Scaling: Almost all of Broly's moves have harsh initial proration, severely limiting the damage he can get off of regular combos.
- Heavily Resource Dependent: Without meter, Broly doesn't have access to his strongest options and requires assists to maintain optimal positioning and deal any meaningful damage. Without assists, he needs lots of meter to achieve the notorious damage he is capable of.
- Large Frame: Broly is absolutely huge, meaning he often gets caught by certain moves other characters don't.
