History Characters / DragonBallFighterz

* GameplayAndStoryIntegration/GameplayAndStorySegregation: An odd mix of both. As a Saiyan, he'd rather take on opponents solo, and fight them at their best. That said, he's best played as an Anchor, and best used to finish off the opponent's currently-weakened team... which fits in ''perfectly'' with his role as TheCavalry in many post-Saiyan Saga fights.

* GameplayAndStorySegregation: As a Saiyan, he'd rather take on opponents solo, and fight them at their best. That said, he's best played as an Anchor, and best used to finish off the opponent's currently-weakened team.

* AlwaysSomeoneBetter: A common theme within this game is that despite Vegeta and his rival Kakarot/Gokun being presented in the same forms, Goku tends to have access to another form or power-up that Vegeta lacks, making him lore-wise inferior to Goku. In the case of their normal forms, Goku has the Kaio-ken as a Super Attack which multiplies his power from 2x up to 20x.

* GutturalGrowler: As always, Vic Mignogna gives him a growling tone in his voice.

* OutOfFocus: Broly stopped receiving dialogue interactions after the first DLC season. Other characters interact with him, but Broly himself receives no new voice lines. By this time, his English voice actor was fired from Funimation, but this seemingly wasn't a factor, as neither his Japanese voice actor have provide the character with interactions.

* ThisCannotBe: Should he be on the receiving end of a Dramatic Finish from Goku, he’ll utter ‘IMPOSSIBLE!!!’

* NotHisSled: While he does have a faithful Dramatic Finish if killed by Frieza, if he kills Frieza, [[https://youtu.be/g8CA9O917nI?t=3m4s the Dramatic Finish plays out like normal, only for Bardock to No Sell the Supernova, go Super Saiyan, and finish Frieza off with a Riot Javelin]].
* PopularityPower: He's a massive EnsembleDarkhorse in the grand scheme of the franchise, to the point of WolverinePublicity. He also gained a new, original Dramatic Finish wherein he [[SugarWiki/MomentOfAwesome kills Frieza after turning Super Saiyan]].

* SpellMyNameWithAnS: For some reason, his name is Romanized as "Barduck" in Japan, probably because his name is pronounced "Bādakku" there.

* WolverinePublicity: One of the most popular characters in the franchise, Bardock takes the opportunity to appear in ''[=FighterZ=]'' even with the Super Saiyan transformation.

* TheCameo: She only appears in a brief sequence in the Gogeta/DBS!Broly Dramatic Finish, where, just like in the movie, she uses the Dragon Balls to wish Broly away from certain death.

** Fused Zamasu and Vegito: Both are fusions that involve a Goku, and were opponents during the Future Trunks saga of ''Super''.

* TheJuggernaut: Just like the in the source material, Broly's move set is focused on armored moves that ignore when someone is hitting him and charge on through. Unlike the source material, while it is hard to stop his moves, he doesn't hit very hard without his assists or specific setups and advanced tech. This makes him extremely hard to use but very oppressive, yet he still manages to be a very viable character without the typical fighting game solution of giving big, slow characters combos that decimate the opponent even without super meter like [[VideoGame/StreetFighterV Abigail]], [[VideoGame/Persona4Arena Kanji]], [[VideoGame/GuiltyGear Potemkin]], [[VideoGame/BlazBlue Tager]] and even Android 16. This gives the opponent more opportunity to play the neutral game against Broly than is typical of a Juggernaut style character.

* SuperMode: Downplayed. As the name suggests, this is Goku at his most basic without having transformed into either Super Saiyan or Super Saiyan God Super Saiyan, based off his appearance in the Saiyan Arc, but he can still use the Kaio-ken technique to power up.

* ThereIsNoKillLikeOverkill: If Goku ends the combo with the regular Kaio-ken and finishes the opponent off, there will be extra 1000 damage on top of it.

* AlwaysSomeoneBetter: A common theme within this game is that despite Vegeta and his rival Kakarot/Goku are presented in the same forms, Goku tends to have access to another form or power-up that Vegeta lacks, making him lore-wise inferior to Goku. In the case of their normal forms, Goku has the Kaio-ken as a Super Attack which multiplies his power from 2x up to 20x.
* BlueIsHeroic: Subverted. He has a blue/indigo BattleAura in his intro, but is based on his villainous pre-CharacterDevelopment appearance in the Saiyan Arc.

* KamehameHadoken: The Galick Gun, one of Vegeta's first signature attacks, which makes him jump in the air (can also be performed in mid-air) and attacks the opponent from a diagonal angle. He also has the Galaxy Breaker, the same move he used to kill off Nappa, an upwards stream of Ki.
* LauncherMove: His backwards Special allows him to throw the opponent right above his head, and it's one of the few moves that work on knocked-down opponents. The move itself doesn't deal damage, but damage scaling applies right after that move. If you follow it up with Galaxy Breaker, the latter does 461 less damage than normal.
* LightningBruiser: As opposed to Base Goku being best as an Anchor, he's a pretty good Point character who can decimate the enemy with massive solo combos due to his Cell-esque wall loops.

Frieza's older brother. After hearing of the demise of his brother, Cooler went to Earth to kill the Saiyan responsible for it - not out of family love, but honor, as he always considered himself superior to his little brother. And to show it, he developed his transformation to surpass Frieza. Even with his new transformation, he would still be vanquished by the selfsame Saiyan that defeated his younger brother.\\\

Cooler is an aggressive brute of a fighter who prefers to get up in the enemies face and beat them into the ground. To put it one way, whereas Frieza likes to control the battlefield on his own terms with ranged attacks, Cooler likes to dominate it with oppressive melee power.

* NiceGuy: Surprisingly, he's very friendly and appreciative to his reliable teammates such as Piccolo and Krillin. While still an unabashed ArrogantKungFuGuy like most Fusions, this Gogeta is more matter-of-fact about his unrivalled strength, sincerely congratulating his defeated enemies for doing the best they could do against him.

* PowerEchoes: While this applies to most characters when performing their Super Attacks and Meteor Attacks, Gogeta gets a noticeably unique echo when performing x100 Big Bang Kamehameha, signifying [[OneHitKill it's power]] compared to other Meteor Attacks.
* PracticalTaunt: One of his moves has him tell the opponent to BringIt. Not only does it increase his super meter, it increases his unique "level" mechanic which powers up his Level 1 and 3 Supers.

* SNKBoss: {{Invoked}} with his various unique mechanics, such as being able to summon Dragon Balls on command and one-hit-kill an opponent with a x100 Big Bang Kamehameha. However, it remains to be seen if this translates to him being truly top-tier. Some high profile gamers like [[LetsPlay/YoVideoGames Maximillian Dood]] outright refer to him as an "Anti E-Sports" character.
* SuperMode: Gogeta starts out as a Super Saiyan 4, due to the fact that his two components fused while being in that form.

* ThisCannotBe: As this Gogeta is seen as one of the most powerful fighters in all of ''Dragon Ball'' history, to the point where he can and ''will'' [[YouFightLikeACow mock and belittle the crap out of his opponents]], thanks to this game's PowerCreepPowerSeep, this game shows how sore and salty he can sound [[DidYouJustPunchOutCthulhu when someone else actually manages to hit and defeat him]].

* WaveMotionGun: His x100 Big Bang Kamehameha Meteor Attack is this in comparison to his Ultra Big Bang Kamehameha in terms of size.
* WorthyOpponent: From his statement at the end of his Dramatic Finish, he considers his Blue counterpart to be this due to the fact that since they are the same person, Gogeta Blue would obviously be a great fight for him.

* TookALevelInBadass: At first, as a justification for the [=RPG=]-like leveling system, they can barely scratch the surface of the fighters' full power. Eventually, they become a big enough badass that even the likes of Frieza is happily giving props.

A mysterious army of clones that suddenly appeared in the game's Story Mode and begin attacking Earth. They are made up of Clones of the Z-Fighters and their greatest enemies.

* MirrorMatch: Except for Buu, Gotenks, the Super Saiyan God Super Saiyans and the Androids that aren't Cell, every other playable character in the Story Mode has a hidden cutscene when facing his respective clone.

* {{Superboss}}: Kid Buu clones act as optional fights in the story mode that are more difficult, but also have a bigger pay-out.

** Gets another one after Frieza gets his movement back and is about to kill her. Thank goodness the soul stopped him, otherwise she would've been obliterated!

* PhysicalGod: Both Supreme Kais are the highest-ranked gods in their universe alongside with the God of Destruction. Shin, in particular, could run some Super Saiyan 2 some money back then in the Buu Saga.

* OurAngelsAreDifferent: Whis is an Angel, thus his duty is assisting Beerus and apparently train him.

* StealthMentor: Bulma tries to sweet-talk Beerus and Whis into helping the team out with the current crisis, to which Beerus declines on grounds that it is none of their business. However, they actually ''do'' help in their mysterious ways by pointing out the current situation and setting out hints and clues as to what's happening and how to find a solution.

* GuileHeroine: She cows ''both Cell and Frieza'' into submission by taking care of the latter's possession by the Earthling soul and their mutual power restrictions by 21's machine. When both threaten to kill her for giving them lip, she smugly tells them that there's ''nothing'' they can do to her because she's the only one who can restore their power.
