The ultimate creation of the mad scientist, Dr. Gero. Cell is a bio-android, created using the DNA of some of Universe 7's strongest fighters (Frieza, Goku, Vegeta, Tien, Etc.), each of which change his personality (Goku's lust for battle, and Frieza's evil heart being examples of such). Cell is capable of gaining power through absorbing people into his being and, upon absorbing Androids 17 and 18, he attained his "Perfect" form, making him one of the most powerful and dangerous villains in the world, who would've destroyed the Earth if not for Gohan who, as an adolescent, defeated him.

"At last...I can finally test the power of my Perfect Form."
Lore:The ultimate creation of the mad scientist, Dr. Gero. Cell is a bio-android, created using the DNA of some of Universe 7's strongest fighters (Frieza, Goku, Vegeta, Tien, Etc.), each of which change his personality (Goku's lust for battle, and Frieza's evil heart being examples of such). Cell is capable of gaining power through absorbing people into his being and, upon absorbing Androids 17 and 18, he attained his "Perfect" form, making him one of the most powerful and dangerous villains in the world, who would've destroyed the Earth if not for Gohan who, as an adolescent, defeated him.
Voice:Japanese: Norio Wakamoko English: Dameon Clarke



 Cell  Cell is a dangerous, well-rounded fighter with a deadly combination of attacks that can hurt at any range.

Pros
Cons
  • Well rounded kit allows him to tackle most situations.
  • Great neutral with good air buttons and an aerial beam.
  • High average damage, especially in the corner.
  • High reward off of left-right mixups due to his 5M having far reach.
  • Has many anti-air options, with most of them leading to extreme damage or outright TODing the opponent.
  • Excellent corner carry with rejump combos.
  • Great reflect-proof strings, with 5LL, and 2M lunging him forward.
  • Amazing stagger pressure and frame-traps, with many normals that are safe on block.
  • Exceptional buttons, all of which are fast and have far reach.
  • Voiced by Norio Wakamoto
  • Roasts everyone in story mode
  • Somewhat limted high/low mixup without the use of setups.
  • Some moves of his are overly-committal in regards to pokes and pressure.
  • 2H has an ironically short hitbox.
  • All of his assists are situational.


Normal Moves

5L

DBFZ Cell 5LL.png
DBFZ Cell 5LLL.png
Give me a Hug
Template:AttackDataHeader-DBFZ
5L
  • Important points go here.
5LL

5LL[4] can be useful for reflect bait and punish with 5LLL. Since most players would double reflect 5L 5LL due to its coverage.

5LLL
  • Cancelling into this from a blocked 5LL always leaves the opponent in too much blockstun for the throw to work.
  • Can used multiple times per combo.
5M
5M
DBFZ Cell 5M.png
Did you press a button after my minus frames? FOOL.
Template:AttackDataHeader-DBFZ
5M
4MM
  • Can late cancel 5M into 4MM even on whiff.
  • 5M > 4MM will combo on standing/crouching characters.
  • Excellent button after doing a left-right mixup. If it connects, you can link with 5MM > 6H > 5H into a combo. If the opponent blocks, you can continue your pressure.
5H
5H
DBFZ Cell 5H.png
Give 'em the reverse boot
Template:AttackDataHeader-DBFZ
  • [] is when fully held.
  • Charged version has momentum that is maintained when cancelled.

This move has decent range on it's own, but the charged version is something special. If charged in the corner and canceled, Cell is pushed back to about half-screen. This allows for all sorts of shenanigans with his beam being hard to punish and 214S being incontestable to mashing.

5S
5S
DBFZ Cell 5S.png
Begone to your shine!
Template:AttackDataHeader-DBFZ
  • Can be repeated up to 5 times.
  • Mainly used in blockstrings to reset assist cooldowns.
2L

  • Excellent stagger tool with remarkable range for a 2L.
2M

This isn't flying! This is falling! with style!
Template:AttackDataHeader-DBFZ
  • Lunges forward.
  • Unlike 5S, these Ki blasts explode on impact. On hit will carry the opponent with Cell.
6M
6M The People's Cellbow Template:AttackDataHeader-DBFZ
  • Unlike the rest of Cell's buttons, this has low range.
  • Cell's stubby jab means it's hard to challenge after it's blocked.
6H

j.L

DBFZ Cell jL.png
Template:AttackDataHeader-DBFZ
  • Long reaching and fast, a good air-to-air.
  • Vertical hitbox leaves much to be desired, as it will whiff if used more than once in an air string.
j.M

CREDIT CARD SWIPE
Template:AttackDataHeader-DBFZ
  • Good air to air normal.
  • Good hitstun, allows it to combo into j.S and j.2H.
j.H

The People's OTHER Cellbow
Template:AttackDataHeader-DBFZ
  • Unlike most characters, j.H doesn't usually end combos. Most Cell combos end with j.H > j.S > j.236L.
j.S
j.S

MILLY ROCK!
Template:AttackDataHeader-DBFZ
  • Unique full screen blast.
  • The swipe has a hitbox. This hit will knock the opponent vertically downward.
j.2H

Template:AttackDataHeader-DBFZ
  • Unlike most j.2Hs, Cell's j.2H will knock the opponent away horizontally instead of upwards.
  • Combos into j.236L/M in the corner post-Smash!

Template:AttackDataHeader-DBFZ
  • Has bad vertical tracking.
  • Can be converted into a combo by using Vanish.

Cell teleports behind his opponent and attacks with a swipe. Useful in combos because of the sideswap countering the sideswap of a Vanish, and useful (sometimes) in neutral to punish committal Ki Blasts and Beams.

Kamehameha
Assist A
DBFZ Cell AirKamehameha.png
"Fine, how's this?"
Template:AttackDataHeader-DBFZ
  • Fires a Kamehameha downwards.

The angle of this kamehameha assist makes it less useful as a long range neutral tool. It's pretty good as an anti-air though, and can be used for pressure in the corner.

Assist B
Shoulder Tackle

DBFZ Cell 5LL.png
Template:AttackDataHeader-DBFZ
  • It's a strike assist.

Template:AttackDataHeader-DBFZ
  • Invulnerable during startup.
  • 1672 minimum damage.
  • +42 on hit, but leaves the opponent at fullscreen if you aren't in the corner.

Cell's level 3 is actually pretty good. It does about average damage and allows for a really easy safejump in the corner by just holding [9] and pressing j.H as you fall. Midscreen, the best you can do is run up and meaty with 2L or attempt a delayed 214S as a gimmick.
