Overview

Tien (AKA Tenshinhan or Tianjinfan) is a student of the Crane School (the enemy of Roshi's own Turtle Style) and was one of Goku's greatest childhood rivals. Accompanied by his doll-like companion, Chaotzu, Tien has continued to pursue strength as a martial artist throughout the series and is considered the series' strongest full-blooded human fighter. During the Saiyan and Android sagas, Tien played secondary though important roles in the final outcomes.

In Dragon Ball FighterZ, Tien is a well-rounded fighter who can break through his opponents' defenses with the help of Chiaotzu. With the best-scaling supers in the game, Tien is especially useful as an anchor to switch in and finish stubborn opponents.

Strengths/Weaknesses

Strengths

Weaknesses

Solid mixup game; having multiple lows and a fast command grab when he has the meter to burn. He can also use 214S in the corner to setup his pressure. Can score a sliding knockdown in almost every situation with Volleyball Fist (after a j. 2H, he can convert with j. 236M). Very high damage output when he has the resources to burn. Both of his level 3 supers boast some of the highest damage output in the game, allowing him to finish off opponents very easily. Very strong with sparking; the ability to jump cancel out of any move gives him a very strong vortex. The self-inflicted damage from Tri-beam and Neo Tri-beam is also halved, making it less dangerous. Dodon Ray is an amazing assist. It can be used to control neutral and to extend combos. SHIIIIIN KIKOHOOOOOOOOOOOOO

Below average neutral game; Dodon Ray has a small hitbox, allowing for easy counter play by opponents. Additionally, his normals are a bit on the stubby side, not having any normals that lunge him forward. Without sparking, the amount of life that he loses with Tri-beam and Neo Tri-beam is quite severe, making him vulnerable to being downed if not careful. Unremarkable damage without meter or assist usage.
