Goku's attack patterns will severely punish any player that don't know when to disengage, as his Ultimate Scissors Paper Rock combo will be hard to evade for those close enough when Goku uses it.
Beating Goku Flow Chart:
| Step | What To Do |
|---|---|
| 1 | Start from being mid-range away from Goku, while pummeling him with Ki attacks |
| 2 | Goku will take 2 kinds of actions: A. Used ranged attacks like Kamehameha. B. Come towards you for melee moves. |
| 3 | If Goku uses ranged attack: Dash to the sides to avoid the attack, then use Masenko to attack. If Goku comes close to melee: If Goku uses any melee special attacks, evade and hit back when he's vulnerable. If he just comes forward, he is exposed thus you can hit him with a melee combo + Masenko/ Body Slam. Run away after 1 melee combo. |
| 4 | Go back to being mid-range away from Goku. |
| 5 | Rinse & Repeat. |
Avoid Or Defend Ultimate Scissors Paper Rock
The main source of damage from Goku is his Ultimate Scissors Paper Rock Combo: He will strike 3 times separately, followed up by a Super Kamehameha, causing massive damage. This attack may also stun, so make sure to be miles away when he uses it.
Goku Abilities & Counters
Ultimate Scissors Paper Rock
A 3-strike attack rolled into one. This move will strike 3 times separately meaning that you will need to evade all 3 attacks to get away from this combo. Scissors will stun you if it hits, leaving you vulnerable to follow-up attacks,
Guided Kamehameha
A guided version of Kamehameha that has a tracking trajectory. Evade just as any other ray attacks, but require more dashes to successfully be safe. Usually used after Ultimate Scissors Paper Rock to blast chunks of HP from you while you're stunned.
Super Kamehameha
A more damaging version of the Kamehameha. Dash to the sides to avoid taking heavy damage. Usually used after Ultimate Scissors Paper Rock to blast a huge chunk of HP from you while you're stunned.
Impact Strike
Dashes forward in a blue aura, then waiting for a while before releasing a heavy punch. Dash away as Goku stops to punch, or defend.
Meteor Smash
Dash forward and so a pummeling smash, knocking you down if hit. This move has a big opening so just keep stepping back.
