In ''Dragon Ball FighterZ'', Piccolo is a tricky character with strong Mixup options. He has buttons with good reach, his Homing Energy Blast can protect him from a sudden Vanish, and his Hellzone Grenade/command grabs mixups allow him to keep his opponent in check, especially when they're cornered. However, his damage is a little lacking, he has no quick full screen meterless beam attack, he has no air supers, many of his setups require knockdown or an assist, and he has to spend meter to get a mid-screen hard knockdown, making it difficult to combo into his Meteor Attack.
