Goku does a short jab. Basic 5L. Shares near identical frame data with 2L, but its less overall frames and its better whiff cancelable properties make this a safer button to throw out in neutral. It also has more range, a better hitbox for catching airborne opponents, and can be jump canceled. Input as 4LL to string together two 5L's in a row.

Goku does a roundhouse that autocombos into super dash and also has an interesting property where the hitbox reaches behind him. Goku's autocombo finisher lacks practicality, as it offers no mix-up potential and doesn't provide him any combo routes that are as damaging as his other bread-and-butters while also using up his Smash very early into a combo. To make matters worse, the hitbox of this move is firmly horizontal which prevents it from connecting after his 5LL hits an airborne opponent. This makes it near difficult to combo into without using the initial activation of Sparking Blast or certain assists while also preventing this move's auto-correct from threatening airborne approaches. Not all is lost, as this move has the damage and scaling of a heavy while also being safe on block.

To make matters worse, the hitbox of this move is firmly horizontal, making it near impossible to combo into outside of using the activation of Sparking Blast or certain assists, which also makes the autocombo's automatic side correction irrelevant as it already hits both sides and cannot anti-air. Not all is lost, as this move has the damage and scaling of a heavy while also being safe on block.

As Goku gets more damage out of his Smash by using 2H/j.2H mid-screen or 214M/214H in the corner, it mostly sees use in neutral or in pressure. However, this move becomes arguably Goku's best attack for corner combos after Smash has been used as it leads into easy assist extensions and Superdashes after 2S.

Goku shoots a ki blast upwards. After a Kamehameha Vanish confirm, do (2M > 5M > 2S > Superdash) for an optimal confirm.

Goku does a jumping sidekick. This is his best cross-up jump-in after an IAD, though j.H is better for most other situations. Inputting j.M as j.LL will result prevent Goku from doing a second j.L but in exchange will grant him additional height, useful for confirming into j.S. Delaying the autocombo version of this move after a j.L with backwards momentum will result in an extreme altitude boost that allows a follow-up j.S to combo into an additional j.LL for optimal damage. Use j.M instead of j.LL to prevent an attack following a double jump from whiffing due to over-shooting.

Goku does a two-handed overhead smash. This is his best jump-in and cross-up tool, as well as his best damaging and scaling air normal for starting ground combos. Thanks to j.S's ability to combo into 236L, this move is rarely used to end air combos. This move will only provide a sliding knockdown if the move that used Goku's smash was a 2H, j.2H, or 5LLL. If j.H would have produced a sliding knockdown connects but the combo is then extended (like through a vanish), then all knockdowns (except those provided by supers) will be soft knockdowns.

Goku's signature projectile. One of the best beams in the game with decently fast start-up, low cool-down, and high damage. Its ability to be used both on the ground or in the air as well being able to angle both versions gives Goku a commanding presence at long range. On hit, it can lead into a combo by doing a vanish and linking a dash 2M. In the corner, the downward version can be used near the ground to extend combos.

Goku's assist is the ground version of his Kamehameha special that fires along the ground. As you might imagine, this makes it a really good assist in neutral since it'll stop your opponent from moving freely on the ground. This can be very helpful when you want to approach your opponent because it'll limit their options.
Goku's assist is the ground version of his Kamehameha special that fires along the ground. As you might imagine, this makes it a really good assist in neutral since it'll stop your opponent from moving freely on the ground. This can be very helpful when you want to approach your opponent because it'll limit their options.

His beam has significantly low recovery, which not only makes punishes incredibly difficult, but it's possible to combo afterwards with certain supers and techniques. Goku can combo into Warp Kamehameha using the air angled downward version of Super Kamehameha if he and his target are high enough in the air. The grounded upward angled version does more damage than any other version.

Goku uses Instant Transmission to teleport behind the opponent on the ground as he releases his charged close ranged Kamehameha in an upward direction. He will always teleport near the opponent on the ground, no matter where he performs the attack. Very similar to his non-warp upward Super Kamehameha but it has more start-up.

Goku's level 3. Goku transforms into Super Saiyan 3 and teleports behind the opponent, striking them with his elbow. Easy to punish with and combo into, but has zero vertical tracking. Due to the fact that this super surrenders control of the corner, pushes opponents too far to utilize the hard knockdown, and does less damage than Goku's air downward Super Kamehameha into Warp Kamehameha setup, this super isn't used for much other than reversals. If the opponent was under the effects of Sparking Blast when they got hit, they will continue to regenerate health though they will also use up Sparking Blast's timer.
Goku's level 3. Goku transforms into Super Saiyan 3 and teleports behind the opponent, striking them with his elbow. Easy to punish with and combo into, but has zero vertical tracking. This is his best super for damage and oki though the hard knockdown can be difficult to use if the opponent wasn't sent to the corner. If the opponent was under the effects of Sparking Blast when they got hit, they will continue to regenerate health during the animation though the opponent will also use up their Sparking Blast's timer.
 
This super reuses the animations of preexisting moves. The transformation is his Ki Charge, the teleport elbow is his 5M, the launcher is his j.2H, the smash is his j.H, and the beam is his air Super Kamehameha.

Overview

Born "Kakarot", Son Goku (named directly after the Japanese naming of Journey to the West protagonist Sun Wukong) was sent to Earth shortly before the Saiyan race was driven to extinction by Frieza. Found and cared for by martial artist Son Gohan, and brought up by the Turtle Hermit, Master Roshi, Goku would eventually grow into a young man, with both a burning passion for testing his might against other fighters and a strong sense of justice. However, his ceaseless lust for battle would endanger himself, his planet, and even his universe. Even under constant threats, Goku has stepped up, pushing himself further and further to protect his friends or correct his mistakes, and always hoping for another fun challenge in the future.

In Dragon Ball FighterZ, Super Saiyan Goku is a well rounded character. He has buttons with good reach, his specials and their variants provide additional neutral, mixup and combo extension options and his Super Kamehameha is very flexible, making it easy to combo into from any situation. If you're new to fighting games and are looking for a beginner-friendly character, or you're a veteran looking for a solid character to round out your team, Super Saiyan Goku is a good option to consider.

Strengths/Weaknesses

Strengths Weaknesses
  • Versatile; he has all of the tools to deal and adapt to just about any situation.
  • 236L is a versatile move. Can be used to end nearly any conversion into a meterless sliding knockdown. Can also be used as pressure as it is a fast overhead.
  • Plethora of cross-up teleporting moves gives Goku a fantastic cross-up game and denies zoning.
  • Projectiles cover a variety of angles.
  • Great solo damage; can make great use of wall bounce and can use meter to extend his combos, including a solo double super, which results in a significant boost in damage.
  • Versatile assist; can be used to extend combos or to pressure opponents.
  • Makes good use out of sparking with Ki blast loops; allows for corner carry and very high meter gain.
  • Generally a very honest character, not many gimmicks. Requires strong conditioning and assist usage to open up opponents with competent defense.
  • One low (2M); makes his high-low mixup game very weak.
  • His 6M, 2H, 236H, and his 214X all put Goku in an airborne state, making him very vulnerable to 2H's.
  • Little to no defensive options. His only reversal is very expensive, generally making it risky to use.
