Which race has the best combos?
Where 'best' here can mean anything. Most efficient. Most fun. Most cool looking. etc.

I've used every cac type and my pick is female saiyan. Her basic combos are much faster, and, according to my numbers, actually do damage very close to the male saiyan, who is supposed to be far superior in basic attacks. Her combos are also perfect for stringing together basic attacks and supers and ults, both at the end of knockbacks and right in the middle of a string.

My second pick would probably be frieza race or female human. Both of those are really great, and frieza race basic combos outdo other race's combos in terms of style points, imho. The frieza race combos have serious style and strength.

So what do you think? Which race's basic combos do you like the best? Which are the strongest? Which are the coolest? Which are easier to string in supers and ults?

All are good imo. I don't think one is better than another when it comes to the cac. Male saiyan multikick is a bit op, but whatever. Hit probably has the best set since the his attacks hit first and you don't get a clash.

Oh man I'm so bad at male saiyan's moveset haha. I can never hi the heavy hits with the right timing and always end up missing. I can only do the light attacks. Either that or the one-two light-heavy knockback for clearing out space or setting up a super.

Oh I had no idea about that with Hit.

Are there other interesting things about other characters' moves?

I've always really liked Rose Goku Black, Zamasu, Fused Zamasu, and Dabura for their pretty unique combos.

I agree on Female Saiyan and Frieza Race.

I find the Majin and Namekian the most boring to play overall (I tolerate Majin, but as a melee fighter the Namekian has the lowest base damage of the game and their combos are meh at best).

Hm yeah I agree with you on that actually. I haven't tried majin male but majin female leaves a little to be desired. idk about anyone else but the light basic combo flubs up for me sometimes when she goes into like her little ball form and leaps forward.

Namekian's combos are decent looking though. I like some of the fancy looking kicks.

M Earthling looks rather generic to me, but has hands down the biggest impact damage-wise (screw that HLHLH combo, or the ever so fun "Unvanishable" Combo). Their 2 basic combos HLHLH and LH -> H Charged are overloaded with Damage and flexibility.

F Earthling looks more fluid and flashy, lacking the flexibility of most races however. Their HLLLH is a very hard to snap-out-of combo as well as one of the most solid Heavy Knockdowns in the game. It just "feels" right to hit with that heel drop. Their combos overall are pretty nice to look at as well.

M Saiyan and their multikicks... Their combos are also loaded with power and potential: LH combos into Super Kamehameha, they have a powerful knockdown AND their first hit with a Heavy hurts a lot. If you wanna talk damage and linkability into Ultimates, M Saiyan works best. The hits also looks rather brutal (the ending hits, at least).

F Saiyan is interesting: While they aren't made for Basic Combo Damage, they hurt quite a bit. Past a certain point, their combos are easy to cancel as well, and they possess a Heavy Knockdown.
Just not liking their light combo string a whole lot, unless you cancel it early. The lifting kicks look fancy as well.

M Majin... just looks so odd when they use their basics. xD Come on, those Heavy Kicks look so disrespectful. They have an easy cancel and some unexpected range behind some of their combos, but are so, so stiff (whiff an attack and you'll stand around for a while before you can act again).
Good range, ok flexibility, terrible damage. Hella disrespectful.

F Majin looks a bit bland, but have surprising range and link rather well into some supers after their "Ball"-Attacks. They have, however, unrivaled cancels. Almost any attack they do can be cancelled in some point or another, excluding Ki Blast Cancels.
Their combos look a little playful in a way, Heavy Attacks notwithstanding. Those are just slaps and a curb-stomp.

Namekians... oh gods their range. x.x Their Basics may hurt the least (still DO hurt if you spec for that!), but their attacks leave very little opportunities to snap out and attack them from behind, plus they have a fake attack that can bait out a snap vanish.
Not playing them enough to say more beyond that.

Frieza Race is an interesting, aggressive looking one. Their attacks look and are fast, albeit they don't have that many cancels and need to rely on their hits a lot. They look the fastest though, and are (I think) the only race that can reliably combo into a turn-around Soul Punisher without breaking a sweat.
Wished I'd see more Friezas. They look fancy.


If I had to pick a personal favorite, I'd go for F Earthling. It just looks like a great mix of martial arts combined with interesting ways to use the combos in a fight.

Wow very comprehensive descriptions! I can totally see what you're saying on all of these.

Yeah female earthling is definitely really cool.

Freiza race
because they have high basic and ki blast and their awoken skill (turn golden) makes the ki blasts overpowerd even more than super saiyan blue
note* they have the second best basics (after male saiyan)
And the third best ki blast(after female saiyan and female earthling)
so that makes them the perfect attackers

Frieza race and female saiyans along with female majins :U

I like how golden form changes your basic ki blasts.

Looks like females are some of the most favored, as well as frieza race.

I was talking abought ki blast supers
but yea also basic ki blast become also overpowerd with damge of some supers and its completly free

Yeah def. Frieza race is great for ki blast ults and supers because of that. Though the advantage to ss forms is that they boost normal attacks and strikes as well, which is great for hybriding.

Like the charged up basic golden form ki blast is just about as strong as a super, tbh.

In terms of offense i favor female saiyans. Mainly because i can max out their basic attacks and have excellent strike/ki super stats without investing any points in those at all. They're just naturally high. Add super saiyan 3 to it and even the meager 10% boost to ki blasts is stil quite decent along with the 20% boost to strikes and basics already.

For combo fun however female earthling is my main. They have some fun heavy slams that finish their combos

Yeah I'm rather impressed with female saiyans. Like idk but the other races always have a larger bar on basics when you max them, but when you do the numbers, female saiyans' strings are still super high.
