This is useful for a variety of reasons, but let’s stick to combo usage. Most moves in Dragon Ball FighterZ are jump cancelable, meaning you can immediately jump after using them. The auto combos handle all the movement for you, but when you’re doing combos manually, you have to do the jumping and dashing yourself. These are frequently useful moves in and of themselves, and you can use them in a normal combo chain by going to a medium attack after the first two strikes hit.

Pressing the heavy button again after a heavy strike will automatically use the Super Dash and set you up for a manual combo.Įven if you don’t intend to use auto combos, you should pay attention to the first two strikes of the light combo chain.

Pressing the medium button repeatedly will perform a full basic combo using special and super attacks.

Pressing the light attack button repeatedly will perform a full basic combo using normal attacks.

Auto combosĭragon Ball FighterZ has extremely easy auto combos that allow any player to keep up with veterans in terms of inflicting damage: We usually can’t move backward in the order, from medium to light attack or heavy to medium. The basic chain sequence is light to medium to heavy attack, in that order. This is contrary to a franchise like Street Fighter, where chain combos are much more strict and we generally have to wait for one attack to finish before going for the next. That is, by pressing buttons immediately in sequence, we’re able to attack many times with no break in between moves. This will make itself apparent as you play, but in Dragon Ball FighterZ normal moves can chain into each other. The auto combo will continue to serve you well as you play this game, but understanding how to perform manual combos will allow you to tweak, optimize and create new and stronger combos. While Dragon Ball FighterZ has a very advanced auto combo system that will turn just about any button-mashing sequence into a spectacular combo, if we want to move ahead we should look at the buttons that we’re mashing. Combos aren’t just cool tricks you can do in Dragon Ball FighterZ.
