Zamasu, a Supreme Kai-in-training from Universe 10, takes it upon himself to purge mortals in his misguided effort to protect the multiverse. As part of this plan, he uses the Super Dragon Balls to switch bodies with Goku, using the Saiyan hero's immense power, combined with his own godly abilities, to carry out the genocide of all mortals as the dark savior, "Goku Black". In an effort to surpass and mock the Saiyan warriors, he developed his own transformation, Super Saiyan Rosé, a pink variation of the Super Saiyan God Super Saiyan transformation.
In Dragon Ball FighterZ, Goku Black possesses a similar gameplan to that of Super Saiyan Goku, albeit with a larger emphasis on long-ranged attacks and mixups. He can enlist the aid of Future Zamasu to pin opponents down with a unique variant of his Kamehameha.
Strengths/Weaknesses
Strengths |
Weaknesses
|
- Simple core gameplan and very low execution BnBs, which are generally universal.
- Boasts some of the best neutral game options among the entire cast. God Slicer and Fierce God Kick are excellent, noncommittal approach options while also having access to a standard beam and long range normals.
- With meter, he has access to the best corner carry in the game. Can send opponents to the corner from nearly anywhere.
- Holy Light Grenade is a decent Super that is easy to use in combos with and is able to be looped for additional damage.
- One of the best assists in the game. He can be used to extend combos or to pressure opponents.
|
- Some of his midscreen starters require him to use meter to get a sliding knockdown.
- Only low is 2M, which hurts his mixup game.
- NEEDS assists in order to make his pressure safe. By himself, he struggles opening up opponents with competent defense.
- Long recovery times on normals makes him susceptible to momentum shifts; cannot afford to sleep on his standard neutral game.
- Little to no defensive options. His only reversal is very expensive, generally making it risky to use.
- Has a weak Ultimate Z Change in the form of God Slicer Dance.
