    Dragon Ball Z Budokai Tenkaichi 3 is one of the most popular and beloved Dragon Ball games of all time, but its competitive side isn't always respected. I decided to take a deep dive, and here's what I found.

      Having been witness to both competitive scenes for a few years now I would say the games are pretty neck-and-neck but for different reasons of course!
      While I'm biased I would personally say the full 3D movement of Tenkaichi games adds a layer of complexity that edges out the budokai series in terms of their skill ceiling. But both are amazing games!
      Super dragon ball Z is by far the most underrated and maybe even more competitive than either!

      You're right. I mean, there are other kinds of competitions. Here, in Argentina, in tournaments, there are bans: Mr. Satan and Arale, and all transformations are banned. I mean, you can play as Super Saiyan, but you have to transform during the battle, which means that you can't be Cell, for example, because it takes too much time to reach the final form.

      Bt3 competitively is really complex and generally what we can say is: Cell is just good at everything he has acess to explosive wave,this can make Cell escape combos easily If used by a smart player so his defense is a bit better due to it,he is also insanely fast his speed allows him to be both better at dealing damage and dodge/punish more effectively,his ranged combat is also incredible as he has a -1 attack (you need to be frame perfect to vanish It) and his ki blasts are really good and the best part is that his melee combos are also great,he literally has everything you can ask for besides armor and him being Broly the clear top 1 of the game.

    • @thebrightestknight6714
      @thebrightestknight6714 Před 6 měsíci +9

      Cell's combos are betters. Not to mention he has a dash attack that does a two-hit into a combo, unlike Frieza who has a one-hit dash attack. Also Perfect Cell has instant transmission, which is one of the most busted abilities as it forces the opponent to lock off, which can guarantee a free special move attack if you time it well (and if the other player is inexperienced enough to get caught by it)

      17's energy balls have tracking so it means it can not only make it harder to dodge but also has a massive vertical advantage. Most attacks that aren't super big can't hit opponents at a high/low angle, 17 can because of the tracking. 17 is usually the 2nd in line because of his lack of active charging but as you can see in the video if you swap after a while in he'll have full ki, so you can immediately deal damage.
      SSJ2 adult gohan is also sometimes a subtitude for 17 because his blast 1 which some people consider bad because of the low range is extremely viable in competetive since people very rarely stay far away, and his blast 1 has a massive hitbox to hit at high angles

    @warhawk059377 Před 11 měsíci +130

    Commentator Hawk here!
    I just wanted to chime in on the "virtually every character is Cell" part etc; there are other characters that can compete w/ Cell who aren't high tiers, like Ssj Goku Mid, Super 17, even Salza to a degree (I will die on this hill) but because their tools differ so much from Cell & 17, the key to playing them in competitive is you *have to be great defensively*. Not all characters offer the same tools, henceforth they cannot be treated the same way a high tier normally would.
    With the aforementioned characters you want to prioritize defence, & only prioritize offence when you have created an opening or the opponent has given you one. So it's pretty much up to the player if you're going to see characters that aren't Cell, 17, Nova, Broly, Future Trunks and what have you.
    If anyone has any questions, I can answer them here or even in the Anime Games Community Discord. Have a great day!

    • @JohnDoe-mw8hi
      @JohnDoe-mw8hi Před 11 měsíci +1

    • @warhawk059377
      @warhawk059377 Před 11 měsíci +12

      @@JohnDoe-mw8hi Nope!
      Every character has their own set of tools they're great at utilizing, and some don't even have any tools whatsoever.
      "Key tools" can be these:
      - Target Rush (Blast 2 only)
      - Safe Combo Attacks (Kiai Cannon, Flying Kick, etc)
      - Step-in Kiai Cannon (Ssj4 Goku & Ssj Goku Mid have these and it's safe)
      - Unblockable ki blasts after first rush string (Burter as an example)
      - Fast, stunning &/or paralyzing charged ki blasts
      There are others but you should get the idea. Explosive Wave & Energy Barriers are just safeguards for most characters but both can be punished, especially if you have a character that CAN punish it. Like if you do Android Barrier w/ 17 & you have Majin Buu or Syn Shenron, their ki blast animations are slow so your chance to punish accordingly will be significantly less doable.
      TLDR; Target Rush, safe combo attacks, melee start-up, ki blasts, just to name a few.

    Used to play competitively, now everything is online and the lag can be a little too infuriating. But as someone who knows the game tech in depth, this game I'd argue has a much higher skill ceiling than fighterz and the fact it's a ps2 game that doesn't get balance patches, it's that much more challenging. It's so odd to me to watch videos of this game on youtube with everyone mashing the square autocombo knowing damn well there's the 99.99% of the iceberg still hidden under that.
    But I think that makes the game so amazingly good. Scrubs, noobs, pros and veterans alike can enjoy the game, it's accessible to anyone on any skill level

    Down the road when I am less busy with life, I plan on joining in these tourneys. Me and 4 other friends sit down on a couch and play this on ps2 together ever since the game came out, so I believe i'll be a top contender, as we learned absolutely everything about the game and each character in that time.
    When playing competitively, damage isn't always the thing to consider. I find character's blast abilities far more important. What makes cell top tier in my eyes is he has 2 of the best;
    Afterimage: Get out of jail free if you aren't in the middle of an action (Far better than ssj4 Gogeta's Wild sense, as wild sense is easily dodged and punished)
    Explosive Wave: An instant "get off me" move costing only a single blast stock.
    In fact, if against good players, i'd avoid characters with things like Wild sense. If you want to use an afterimage strike ability, only use the ability when your swap character meter is full, or near full, as you will be hopeless after it runs out.
    Even if I don't participate for some reasons, I at least believe I have a lot of other combo tips, movement tips and much more to offer not mentioned or seen in this video, and how to make some overlooked characters viable with a bit of cheeky tactics. Anyway, good video. I had no idea people still played this and had tournaments

    I´m from Argentina and in the tournaments I saw here *THERE ARE BANNED CHARACTERS* , let me explain:
    Gag characters like Arale and Hercule are banned (one being busted af for no reason and the other one being dogshit).
    Picking transformations from the character select was banned. Yes, you had to pick Cell default and transform the guy during the match. Fusions, well, you had to pick the characters to fuse and fuse them in match, losing one character but a nice flashy damage dealing fusion.
    So here, it is normal to see characters who are good with no transformations whatsoever, like adult Trunks, 17, Kid Buu, Teen Gohan (He is usally transformed cause he is faster and deals damage) and *BURTER* (Because his is hella fast if you know how to execute all with no transformation required).

It's not as known for reasons as well as the PTSD Budokai veterans experienced from base game, but it's cool and fun and will be good enough for tournaments after I learn some things to make this next patch happen ☺

    Tenkaichi 3 has another mode other than the normal team fight mode, where you choose characters based on their power level or destruction points or whatever they were called, I feel it would be more fun to use that mode for a tournament to see more character variety

    • @DBZscrub
      @DBZscrub Před 4 měsíci +1

      The problem with that mode is it's very unreliable as an actual indicator of how good a character is for example perfect form cell (the strongest character) being only a 7, Arale being a 5, Babidi being a 4 etc.
      Transformations would probably have to be banned but perhaps there's a way to make it work. I think everyone would run Mr.Satan (DP value of 1) lmao

    I remember once attending a local tournament, having no experience against actual players, i almost won the first round but lost because i was playing phase 2 Cell against a Metal Cooler (Panicked because we were at our last characters and i tried to drain HP twice with dozens of people watching, so that was embarrassing...). I decided to watch the rest of the tournament, and saw a guy playing Kid Buu and dominating everyone else with him alone.
    Even though some characters are more preferable than others, i truly believe you can use at least half of the characters in the roster and still have a chance if you know how to play them well enough.

    Playing Tenkaichi with my friends, it was always evident to me that the game had a very high skill ceiling compared to other anime arena fighters. The game has a lot of tricks, quirks and tech that you only learn with practice. You need to learn to take advantage of character states (stuns, blocks, etc), and there's a lot of defensive options for many different situations. It's genuinely not just an amazing anime arena fighter game with tons of fan service, but a pretty solid fighting game as well.
    Also, it's not entirely true that the devs didn't care about balance. It's just that the balance is also meant to reflect the power level of characters in the series. Thus, each character has an assigned value depending on their power, and for competitive play, there is a mode where the game gives you a limited amount of points, as a type of currency, to choose your characters based on their power, allowing you to balance between choosing many weak characters or a couple of very strong ones, or anything in between. It's much deeper than most give it credit for IMO.

    Despite all the DBZ games that have come out over the years, BT1 has the most badass and authentic Intro of all of DBZ games of the Franchise. BT2 and BT3 in my opinion still remains the most Unique and the best DBZ games in terms of content, quality and fanservices. And from the gameplay perspective aspects, these DBZ games that I mentioned are very close to the anime itself because of the Vibe and Charm, I don't know how to describe it but it was, and still is the most Unique DBZ experience you could have with the combat factor. (- Sheer amount de of characters
    - Transformations mid-battle (powering up and down)
    - Fusions mid-battle
    - Fast gameplay that has that "woah" feel
    - Tons of extra content
    - Story mode covering all sagas + movies
    - What If sagas
    - Shenron having permanent impact on game (character unlocks and whatnot)
    - Great tournaments that rotate availability
    - Edit characters with items (buffs)
    - 5v5 battles
    - Really Great and Epic Soundtracks
    - Destroyable environments
    - Entire stages could be blown up into their "destroyed" alternatives
    - Mission 100 being a great challenge
    - Artwork is 10/10
    - Sound effects are great
    - Combat feels heavy and satisfying) Only Budokai 3, Infinite World and the Raging Blast 1 and 2 and all of PSP DBZ games except of Dragon Ball Z Evolution are still considered also very solid DBZ games, also the hidden gem that a lot of DBZ fans missed from PS2 Era of DBZ games is "Super Dragon Ball Z" which is also a real Unique and DBZ game, especially for the different gameplay aspects perspective.

      Of course. If customs were allowed, you could turn almost every character into a god or at least an oppressive Glass Cannon and the "meta" would be thrown right out the window. This is also what makes Tenkaichi 3 such an incredible multiplayer experience though. No two players are going to have the same custom set up and going into fights blind lead to amazing and possibly humorous match-ups.
