Overview

"I don't need thirty minutes...I only need one finger to beat you!"
Lore:The product of the Metamoran fusion technique from Goku and Vegeta, Gogeta ("Go" from Goku, and "geta" from Vegeta) is a powerful warrior and was seen as a necessity to deal with Broly. Showing incredible power, he was able to weaken Broly before he was teleported away back to Vampa, almost destroying him in the process. In this game, he is depicted in the Super Saiyan God Super Saiyan form, however likewise takes aspects from his appearances in Dragon Ball Z: Fusion Reborn (such as transforming into a Super Saiyan during his Dramatic Finish) and Dragon Ball GT.

Playstyle

 SSB Gogeta  SSB Gogeta is a neutral-dominant character who can use his oppressive and massive toolkit to quickly chase the opponent into the corner.

Pros
Cons
  • Bypasses neutral with tools like beam normals, Multiplex Afterimage, and 5H.
  • High corner damage, meter build, and great corner-carry.
  • Extremely annoying pressure with several options that automatically beat reflect and backdash like 2M and 5H, as well as j.M being a triple overhead.
  • Very tricky mix-ups when paired with high blockstun assists.
  • Rising Vortex is an omnidirectional reversal that is also a combo starter. Can also grant meterless snapbacks at the corner with the medium and heavy versions.
  • Can use meter very effectively with his supers that enable enormous damage and DHC potential.
  • Punisher Drive is a fullscreen command grab that is neutral on hit, either letting him go for a mix-up or vanish for a combo.
  • Very high startup and recovery on normals and specials result in Gogeta having absolutely terrible frame-data, almost every move down to his standard jabs are a commitment and a risk.
  • Weak low mixup; although he has a low 2L, it's as slow as a 2M with the scaling of an L.
  • Very poor okizeme options mid-screen that won't let him use most of his supers, or force him to sacrifice his corner carry.
  • Few true blockstring options; needs assists to make his pressure meaningful and enable better mixups.
  • The loss of Snap Pressure and Fuzzy Overheads significantly hurts Gogeta's ability to open up opponents and keep his pressure going, coupled with assists now no longer recharging during gapless blockstrings.

  • Slides forward.
  • Launches on hit like a 2M.

Catches backdash after a blocked Vanish, while 2M doesn't.

2M

Goin' down the water slide!
Template:AttackDataHeader-DBFZ
  • Very long range.
  • Surprisingly notable vertical hitbox.

One of the best 2Ms in the game, due to the sheer amount of space it covers.

2H

  • Beam property.
  • Causes a big ground bounce.

2S > SD isn't a true blockstring, but the gap is small enough that 2H attempts will be stuffed.

6M
6M Template:AttackDataHeader-DBFZ
  • Universal overhead.

5LL > 6M can link into another 5L in the corner. Making this one of the few 6Ms that are solo comboable.

j.L

Template:AttackDataHeader-DBFZ
  • Triple overheads.

j.LLL won't come out until j.LL lands all 3 hits.

IAD j.M does enough blockstun to true string into rising j.L on big characters.

Template:AttackDataHeader-DBFZ
  • Smash on air-to-air.
  • Causes a sliding knockdown on Smash hit.
  • Ground hit, the opponent can tech immediately.

Pretty solid finisher for a combo anywhere if you're not totally sure how to end it, since it combos from j.M very easily midscreen, and j.H in the corner. It also leaves Gogeta very close to the opponent for some oki if you want it. He's got better sliding knockdown enders, but this isn't a bad one to fall back on should you need it.

Template:AttackDataHeader-DBFZ
  • Followups come out even on whiff.
  • Only ground L rekka on hit keeps grounded opponents standing. The others launch on hit.
  • Ground rekka doesn't have head property, air rekka does.
  • Midscreen range: Air H > Ground H > Ground M > Ground L = Air L > Air M
Ground L
Air L
  • Strikes half screen forward.
Ground M
Air M
  • Reels back before the attack. Performing this with his back against the wall gives significantly better range than midscreen.
  • Can cancel into H followup during startup.
Ground H
Air H
  • Each hit automatically does its next followup on hit, block, or reflect.
  • Last hit causes a ground bounce, Smash hit adds sliding knockdown. After landing, does an extra hit that switches sides and causes a big wall bounce on Smash hit for conversion.
Soul Strike Follow-up 1

H Automatic Follow Up
Template:AttackDataHeader-DBFZ
  • Auto-corrects.
  • Range: L > M > H
L
  • Causes a short sliding knockdown on Smash hit.
M
  • Causes a ground bounce, Smash hit adds sliding knockdown.
  • Hits below Gogeta.
  • Leaves a gap from any 236X~X or j.236X~X
H
  • Causes a ground bounce, Smash hit adds sliding knockdown.
  • After landing, does an extra hit that switches sides and causes a big wall bounce on Smash hit for conversion.

236L~H and 236M~H are both fast overheads that cannot be anti-air'd. 236L~H is 25f, 236M~H is 26f, but at close range the opponent can block 236L before the H comes out, which doesn't happen to 236M.

  • On hit, 236M/H and j.236M/H do an extra kick at the end.
  • Smash on that last hit.
Ground L
Air L
  • Frame 1 Anti-Air.
Ground M

  • Frame 1 full invul.
  • Goes slightly further than L versions.
  • Smash hit wall bounces, can link into j.H even midscreen.

Midscreen can also link into airdash j.236L.

Ground H
Air H
  • Frame 1 full invul.
  • Ground version does a gut punch, air version is a faster j.214M
  • Both versions switch sides, causes a big wall bounce on Smash hit.

Attack
Feint
  • Can only be done once in the air.
  • Fully invulnerable from frame 6-10 while Gogeta is invisible.
  • Does a tracking j.2H on block or hit, causes a ground bounce. Smash even on grounded hit and adds sliding knockdown.
  • Hold Template:4 to use j.S clone, Template:6 to use j.2S clone. Hold S to feint, can also choose which clone to warp to.
  • During startup, the bottom clone is always the real one. Hitting fake ones will cause them to disappear.
  • 5S clone true string into the dive kick, making it safe even at point blank.
  • j.2S clone's beam pops the opponent up like a typical beam instead of ground bounces.
  • Performing this at jump height will still give the ground version, so j.236S4 never hits grounded opponent. Near ground j.236S into 5S clone counts as landing, regaining your air options.

Can super jump install into an airborne clone, retains super jump's momentum control.

Punisher Drive

psh....nothin personnel kid....
Template:AttackDataHeader-DBFZ
  • Full screen command grab, max range startup is 32.
  • All assists immediately leave the screen on hit, also can't call any assist until after recovery.
  • On hit, leaves Gogeta point blank behind the opponent, keeps grounded opponent standing.
  • Whiffs on airborne. Can still hit airborne opponent mid-combo, causes sliding knockdown.
  • Only hits once per combo, like most command grab.

What seems like it would be an incredibly strong move is only just okay for Gogeta. A full screen command grab is good, and it can easily catch people off guard or be setup into easily. However, Gogeta can't combo off of this command grab without spending resources (he can pop Spark to get big damage and even ToD, vanish for a good but scaled followup, or just cancel into super) as he recovers too slowly to really do anything. He can maybe go for some mixups by faking out with a 2L/2M or something similar, but the reward off this isn't as huge as one would think if you do not have the resources available, or do not want to burn them. With these things available it is incredibly strong, but your opponent may realize what you are doing and this will become hard to land. Still a strong move, but not as good as it would seem initially.

Z Assists

Assist A
Super Dash Kick
Assist A Base Goku assist on wheels
Template:AttackDataHeader-DBFZ
  • Big wall bounce. Enough for GT Goku to combo into Spirit Bomb from midscreen.
  • Has head property.

Really good. Has a good amount of blockstun and sets up a ton of utility for many characters, such as midscreen snap setups. It's got pretty good range too, the only downside to it being it's rather slow, so you can't just throw it out whenever you please - and using it in combos can be tricky if you don't have the timing down completely. Regardless, Gogeta's assist is very good for what it can do for a majority of the cast, and is one to be feared.

Assist B
Rising Vortex

Reverse Rolling Crush
Template:AttackDataHeader-DBFZ
  • 19-26 frames of blockstun, depending on how far you are to the opponent when the assist is called/how close the assist is to the opponent. (pls change to 26, mods)?
  • Big, lenient, and omnidirectional pinwheel allows versatility for combos.
  • Low blockstun, which comes with the benefits and drawbacks of having it.

Really handy for covering tech options after a sliding knockdown with its ascending hitbox, allowing pressure to continue.

Assist C

Gogeta teleports to the opponent and 2S's them in the face.

Ultimate Kamehameha
Hold L/M/H/S on hit
  • Minimum Damage: 1790 (964 additional damage for the lvl 5 extension)
  • Level 5 extension puts Gogeta full screen's length away from the opponent.

Great damage for a Level 3, especially with a meterburn option available. He doesn't get much, if any oki off of this when it connects though, and he gets barely any if you do the level 5 extension. Still, it's good to use just for damage alone, and is especially good for securing a kill.
