Everyone just playing Gogeta SSJ4 in ranked matches, a bit dull.

[DaniTheHero]

I mean I know you want to "win" to get the ranked up and all, but everyone just playing the strongest character over and over again is a bit dull, isn't it?

Infinite combos quite literally do not exist, there's a counter for every single thing in the game. They can only be infinite if the opponent doesn't know what to do, but if they do, there's no infinite.

This guy gets it

I see alot of top ranked players use SSJ4 Gogeta, I never tried SSJ4 Gogeta in actual matches, but I tested him a few times in training mode. Besides being a really good character he's actually fun—super fast buttons, great skills, strong supers, and flashy moves.

There's no point in complaining about people picking the same characters repeatedly; it happens in every game. I just tuned into a stream where the streamer was constantly complaining about UI Goku, saying they are bad, when the game isn't even out officially—so cringe. What did you expect? People are going to play the most popular characters. Instead, focus on your gameplay and how you can improve to win.

There is a difference. Most games of this sort when having multiplayer, have a sort of balance around them. Surely there's always some characters that are better than others, but it's generally things such as ease of play, and mechanics that they do better (Longer combos, better I-frames, etc etc). In this game, characters have literal statistical differences.
Higher health pools, higher damage dealt, literal Time to Kill and more.
When 2-3 characters have a significant higher amount of these compared to each other character, than any Ranked battle will simply include these characters.
Whats the point of a huge roster if as time goes on, everyone is going to play the same character?

There should be a way to filter or 'ban' characters or maybe a "power level" queue where certain characters can only play against certain characters, else every match is going to be SSJ4 Gogeta in a few weeks.

The game wasn't meant to be balanced we all knew this they weren't hiding that fact if you decide to choose a weaker character then you have to make up for it by being better than them it's fine how it is anyone complaining about it may be valid but that's just how the game is and they need to get better

I don't want to be rude here, but I hope you realize a game like Street Fighter 6 characters have a statistical difference too.. Marissa/Honda have more HP than the rest of the cast and Zangief stands at the top of them all with it being even higher.

It might not be as horrible as this but thinking it's 100% equal is silly.

The stats are distributed differently. If someone has more Health, than he has something else being worse, such as being slower, less damage, weaker skills or more.
Gogeta has no weakness, he is objectively better in everything. More damage, more health, more speed, great abilities. There is no reason *not* to pick him, if you're specifically looking to win. And if that's the case, that means the diversity and general fun of multiplayer matches will be gone, and the only times you'll be able to really enjoy yourself is among friends.

Surprisingly accurate

I’ve done dozens of matches and haven’t seen a single Goku other than UI unless you include Black.

Almost everyone is Gogeta SSJ4, some Blue Gogeta and lot of UI Goku’s.
The rest was one and dones (2 Blacks, 1 SSJ4 Vegeta, one Super Frieza and one Future Gohan).
The overwhelming amount were Gogeta with some UI Goku.

I honestly only play Single battles.

I play mostly end of Z and Super Goku because I love SSB Goku(As seen on my profile) and SSJ2-3 Goku.
And Ultimate Gohan because he’s my favorite Dragon Ball character.

Been using Base form Cabba. Ran into a few Keflas, SSJ4 Gogeta's and some Hits, won against all of them, not because i'm that good but because they think they can just spam ults and win. There have been some Base Goku's and Vegeta's though. But yeah, nobody is picking Videl or Saibamen lol

[ApeOfMazor]

People saying they are mostly noobs but it doesnt change the fact that not picking a DP 10 character is just putting you at a handicap to win in single battles. It's ridiculous how many games I've lost because the opponents character was strictly better than mine. And god help you get hit by one super from these OP characters and your game is basically over. I've full on beat the ♥♥♥♥ out of these dudes just to get hit by one ultimate after instant sparking and basically lose. And god help you if they do know how to play. They should have closed the gap between the characters for ranked it is just stupid.

Again this is kind of your fault. The devs were rather clear that the multiplayer is balanced around DP battles, not singles

I agree that singles would be better with different DP brackets and maybe even some rule changes, etc. so that its not just the same 5-10 characters all the time but this is a problem that only exists in Ranked Singles

[MerylDixon]

at least you get that, when the match starts i get a disconnection error

[Kil0]

From my understanding the community thinks ss4 is weaker than ssb so wouldnt every one picking a character 20 years old be better than everyone picking all the DB Super Characters? SS4 is my favorite and i will use that. Maybe not Gogeta maybe gogeta but ss4 is the best. GT did suck tho. Im just glad they didnt nerf ss4 to promote Super
