General Character Discussion & Notes
Just for starters, Goku has no sweep. It makes it an interesting ordeal to try & gain time to charge when you're behind.

Here's something else, Goku's redizzy infinite combo, which can be seen at the end of this video.



For the record, the combo is j.Y,QCF+Y,QCF+Y,j.Y. It doesn't work on the smaller characters (Kid Buu, Gotenks, Vegeta), but it's pretty crazy. It's not the easiest combo to land, but once it's in motion it does a lot of damage, even if the user messes up. Honestly, I would say something like that has no real place in competitive, casual play. There are other games with infinite combos & traps(Street Fighter Alpha 3), but you'll almost never see them used outside of tournaments, and I think that goes along the same lines. In a situation where you're playing for money or a prize, the infinite is definitely an option, but when playing casuals, there's no real reason to use it.

More to come later.
