"How good is (insert character here) in a DBZ Fighter" Thread

[DBZAOTA482]

Instead of needlessly creating various thread about how good an individual character was in XV... I've decided to make a general thread for any character across the whole any DBZ fighting game series.

Any user can ask for how good a character is in XV and another user may answer the question. Please be specific while answering on how good the character is.

Why not make this thread "How good is X character in Y game?" so people can ask about any game rather than solely Xenoverse?

How good is Chi-Chi in Budokai Tenkaichi 3?

If she had more health and could fly she wouldnt be bad. Most DB characters suffer the same fate of "2 health bars, no flying." Though its easily fixed with a custom, but still

How good is Chi-Chi in Budokai Tenkaichi 3?

Not the worst character, but I wouldn't pick her at all, unless for recreating fights that happened in the series.

Stats: A bit on the low side, combined with only three health bars this can become a problem in terms of defence.
B1s: Could be better. She has 5 blast stocks which is great. Maiden's Will is a standard B1 for going Max Power, which is a great move. Doesn't have that protective barrier that Full Power has though and it has a normal 3 blast stocks unlike the Ginyu Force poses. Great to have, but not a boon ultimately. Maiden's Excitement is a stackable move that increases ki charging. If you can manage to pull off three of those, you can basically stay in Max Power mode at the cost of no B2s and UB. Interesting strategy, but it's too costly to use effectively with two blast stocks. By the time you can pull this off, the battle is probably almost over. On top of that, she isn't particularly much more dangerous in Max Power mode. Her offensive options without the UB are basically the same. Maybe it's cool if you are really good at not getting hit and you're doing team battles. If you're interested in this strategy though, Ginyu does it better.
B2s: 'Stay away from me' is ok, the attack is quite fast but that's about it. 'That won't work' is only 2 ki bars, but is a generic eye beam attack, which is a bit on the slow side since the attack starts just next to the opponent, which gives him/her a little bit of time to guard or maybe even move away. Unremarkable overall.
UB: Nothing special.
Melee and offensive options: Quite nice combo setup, although the heavy finish is maybe a tiny bit slow. Since she can't fly, it gives her an extra option for evasion (When in the air and in the step-in barrier, press L2 and immediately dash away quickly. If you do it quick enough, you can even counterattack with a B2 or UB, definitely cool). Good stuff, there's definitely worse, shame her stats aren't helping this aspect though
Other: Her ki blasts are generally poor, only one consecutive blast and only two when doing the jump ki blast. Her charged ki blast has a homing effect, but is really slow and has no other worthwhile effect. She can stun with a medium charged ki blast though, like many other characters can. Her DP cost is 2, which is low, but I can think of a lot of characters I'd rather pick at that price. Her team charge gauge is fast, but there are characters that are faster and are better overall, even at 2 DP.

Can't think of any good reason to pick her in any situation. That's my verdict. I'm always interested in more thoughts.
