Majin Buu In Versus And Online Matches
Majin Buu isa very resilient charactermeant to outpace your opponent with itsregenerative abilities.The longer the fight goes on, the better for you, since you need only the slightest of openings to use your Sleep skill andrecover a lot of health in an instant.
His Ultimate attack isa fantastic way to finish a match, since it covers a wide range around you, andit can’t be blocked. A good way to enter Sparking Mode without too much hassle is through Sleep, sinceit also fully charges your Ki bars.
R2/RT + Square/X
Rush Ultimate that does nearly two bars of damage.
Evil Buu In Versus And Online Matches
Evil Buu is, in many ways,the inferior version of all the Buus. His Breath abilities are hard to connect, and he only hasa max of four Skill Count, so given the choice, you are better off using any of the other Buus of the family.
Recover a bar and a half of health.
Fires several projectiles that deal up to a bar of damage.
4 Ki Bars
Fires an unblockable medium range Beam Super that does a bar of damage.
Huge and unblockable area-of-effect explosive wave that deals two bars and a half of damage.
Super Buu In Versus And Online Matches
Super Buu isextremely similar to Majin Buu, with ways to paralyze your enemies, regeneration anda wide range unblockable Ultimate. Said Ultimate doessignificantly more damagethan most abilities, although it alsoleaves you at death’s door, so be sure to use Regeneration right after it connects.
Recover over a bar and a half of health.
Fires an unblockable Beam Super that does a bar of damage.
Beam Ultimate that does two bars of damage.
Super Buu (Gotenks Absorbed) In Versus And Online Matches
The version of Buu with a few of Gotenks’ moves is by farthe best out of this line, at least regarding the trio that makes up Super Buu’s character. This is due to the new toys likeExplosive Wave and Galactic Donut Volley, while still keeping the key skill Regeneration.
Explosive Wave isa great defensive toolin its own right, available to several characters as well, but Galactic Donut Volley requires more explanation to understand why it is good. It is anunblockable Super that only costs three Skill Count, meaning you’re able to spam it constantly and have your opponent at your feet.
Fires a Beam Super that does a bar and a half of damage when fully charged up.
Fire several unblockable projectiles that trigger a scene, dealing two bars of damage.
Super Buu (Gohan Absorbed) In Versus And Online Matches
While this version of Super Buu isthe most powerful one from the series, it is a bit lackluster in Sparking Zero. Instead of useful skills,this Buu only has a few buffs, and while Majin Beam and Super Ghost Buu Attackare unblockable attacks, they aren’tas easy to use as Galactic Donut Volleyfrom the previous version; you’re better offnever transforming into this Buu.
Kid Buu In Versus And Online Matches
In terms of raw stats, this isthe best Buu by far, and it hasthe best regenerative abilityonly present before on Majin Buu: Sleep. That, alongside Instant Transmission, makes Kid Buu one of thebetter characters in the gamewhen it comes to skill distribution.
His other skills are fairly average, although theycertainly pack a punch. Much like Majin Buu, an easy way to access your Ultimateis to use Sleep, then you will only need to charge the Sparking up, although this requires you to havefive Skill Counts to spare.
