Eradicate those filthy Saiyan monkeys with Maximilian’s Dragon Ball FighterZ Frieza character breakdown

Continuing his series of Dragon Ball FighterZ character breakdowns, Maximilian moves on to the most iconic and influential antagonist of the entire Dragon Ball franchise, Frieza, who seems to serve as the pure zoner of the revealed cast.

After noting that he possesses several multi-hitting normals — which allow him to create long pressure strings in conjunction with Assists — Max dives into the tyrant’s specials, which allow him to really shine from full-screen, as well as what he calls, “some of the most interesting super combos in the game,” which involve multiple Level 3s.

Frieza has the only true transformation in the game, as Golden Frieza is a Level 3 Install that increases his speed, in addition to a damage boost. Once the timer runs out, you can hold down certain buttons to summon Sorbet to a fire a laser from his ring for an extra bar.

You can see the full video below, as well as links to previous breakdowns.

Dragon Ball FighterZ will be released in February 2018 for PlayStation 4, Xbox One and Steam PC.

Capcom is aware of Spider-Man infinite in Marvel vs. Capcom: Infinite, currently investigating solutions

After an infinite involving the Reality Stone’s Infinity Surge and Spider-Man’s HP Web Ball was recently discovered in Marvel vs. Capcom: Infinite, many players were concerned about it’s potential negative impact on the game’s overall competitive longevity. Misfit Gaming’s Angelic began immediately calling for a ban on the loop, going so far as to preemptively ban it from next year’s Undefeated if it wasn’t removed by then. Fortunately, the Capcom Fighters Twitter account has been quick to respond, noting that the developers are currently aware of the loop and are in the midst of looking into some possible solutions on how to remove it, likely without having to weaken the Reality Stone or Spider-Man too significantly.

Some players, like James Chen, have suggested a fix of capping the Reality Stone’s Infinity Surge to only be able to be used twice in a single combo — after which the opponent will flip out, ending the combo, similarly to the Power Surge.

This is definitely good news for the MvC:I community, and hopefully Capcom will respond with more information soon. You can see the tweets below.
