HAYDEN, THE WANNABE PHANTOM TROUPE MEMBER! | Strike Supers Build for Namekians!

Season 1, Character Build #3

Hello and welcome back, Auggie here, with another character build, and more combos for you guys. This time we will be going over the namekian striker build, which focuses on chaining strike supers. I should mentioned that this build is a little more complicated to use than my previous builds, but still a ton of fun. Just remember that it takes a lot of practice to get the most of this build. Providing today's demonstration is Hayden, A wannabe phantom troupe member who never grew out of his "phase"

Gear

My namek reminds me of an evil version of piccolo

Lets start by going over the gear, the QQ bang focuses on health, ki, stamina, and strike supers. It was made with the five star Dragonball Costume and the Z fighting suit with a senzu bean sprout.  super soul is "Now its my turn" which you can get from the TP medal shop. It lengthens the time of stamina breaks, which will help you pull off more complex combos. Since doing stamina break combos can be difficult, with this build you can use this super soul, or  "You're just pieces in a game" super soul, if you want. It will strengthen your strike supers by 20%

Stats

These aren't optimal stats, feel free to change the stamina and basic attacks as much as you like

For Hayden's stats, I focused on health, strike supers, and basic attacks. I didn't both with other three, as the QQ bang gives you seven bars of ki, and eight bars of stamina, and we will not be using ki blast supers in this build.

Skills

Here's a quick look at the skills: 

Rough Ranger is here for defense, you can use all clear or evil whirlwind

• Ki Blast Cannon
• Super Dragon Flight
• Super God Fist
• Rough Ranger
• Spirit Sword
• Instant Severance
• Potential Unleashed
• Vanisher Guard

 Here's a overlook of the Skills

• Ki Blast Cannon fires a weak shock wave that does poor damage. Against normal state opponents, it does a knock back. Against opponents in a knock back or infinite state, it provides massive hit stun. This skill will be used as a linker to our other supers.

• Super Dragon Flight is a powerful upper cut with a moderate startup time. Against opponents in a normal state, it does a knock up. Against opponents in a knock back or infinite state, it does a knock back. The great thing about this move is that you can cancel it into other supers.

• Super God Fist is a fast punch in the face that does respectable damage. It can be easily combo into from basic attacks. Use this to make your opponent is not afraid to blink when they have the chance.

• Rough Ranger will be your defensive move, if your opponent is being aggressive. It counters anything. basic Attacks, ki blast supers and strike supers, ultimate's, and even transformations. If you are far away from your opponent, it will create a barrier around you and block it. If your are close up, you will kick them away into a knock back. This can work when your opponent closes in on you with a aura dash.

• Spirit Sword is great for catching opponents of guard. Its also a flashy way to finish off your opponent.

• Instant Severance can be combo into after a light stamina break. I does respectable damage and is more reliable than spirit sword.

• Potential unleashed will be your transformation will be . This will buff your damage and ki regeneration.

• Vanisher guard will be Your evasive, to accommodate the new meta being limit bursts and power rush.

 Here's a look at the Combos

1. Black Spider Cannon (two button knock, follow-up, light attack, ki blast cannon, charged heavy, heavy stamina break, instant severance, super god fist)
2. The Flying Spider (aura dash, charged heavy, z-vanish, ki blast cannon, heavy stamina break, instant severance) 1 to 4 light, 2 heavy, bounce, ki blast cannon
3. 5 light, 3 heavy bounce, ki blast cannon combos
4. Heavy, Light, Heavy, Light, Heavy, Bounce Ki Blast Cannon Combos
5. Fangs of the Phantom Troupe Combo (two button knock back, follow, light attack, ki blast cannon, super dragon flight, super god fist)

Strategy

The strategy for this build is very different from my other builds. Most of the time your damage will come gradually from the match instead of at the end with a flashy instant kill. Instead of going for a stamina break first thing you can, work to reduce your opponents stamina, and keep it low by pressuring them constantly. Once they drop below two bars, waste their health bit by bit with your combos. Only go for a stamina break when you know can take them out. If your opponent isn't blinking out of your combos to conserve stamina, use basic attack into super god fist to punish them. Use rough ranger when necessary to defend yourself. Having a very good mastery of the basic game mechanics, along with your namekian health regeneration. The main drawback of this build is the fact that some of the combos are complex and can be hard to pull off. Mastering these combos, and the stamina break ones will take practice. The main strength of this build is that you can still play effectively without stamina breaks and long combo chains. Just sticking to the main combos will work well.

End

That's all for this post, I hope you enjoyed it. This build was a lot of fun to play if you like chaining together flashy, namekian combos. Like I said, It will take practice to make the most out of it. My next build post will be my female Saiyan ki blast build. I don't have a name for it yet, but it will be very easy to use, like my male Saiyan ki blast supers build was. It will have a cool two ultimate in it. Thanks for reading, and I'll see you next time.
