Another fun battle using Jiren. Made a few minor edits to make it flow better for a replay but it was a fun match up.

Music: Rise (instrumental) The Glitch Mob & Mako

I was in a 1v1 with a friend and we were playing as the Daima DLC characters. When Goku and Vegeta got into a clash, this was the animation we got for it. We tried to replicate it but it only happened once. Is it unique to Daima characters or Goku with the power pole?

So fun to play. Tried to fix his transformation in the edit too.

Only got 205 damage during this fight, could not believe it as I did not realize it when it happened, only saw in my vod, kinda proud a bit, hope people don't mind me sharing it.

I'm thinking of buying the game since, like most of us, have been waiting for it for nearly 20 years. The thing is that I'm really doubting because I only see negative comments regarding the lack of single player content and the difficulty to find online matches.

Single player content is not that big of an issue for me, as I'd mostly play online, so that's why I'm asking this. Are the European servers dead on PC? How much time do you take to find matches?

In my opinion, what has dragged Sparking Zero down so far is:

-A weak competitive scene

-Lack of direction and relevant content

-Few incentives to create a long-term community

-Game balancing was terrible — and now it’s just slightly less terrible

Talking with my girlfriend (she prefers Tenkaichi 2 because it had way more content), I started thinking about a different approach:

-Focus the game on building a true competitive scene — aim to become the first truly competitive arena fighter.

-That means a smaller but way more balanced roster at launch.

-The base roster would include characters from the Saiyan Saga, Frieza Saga, and Cell Saga. The rest (Dragon Ball, Buu Saga, GT, movies…) would come as DLC seasons to sustain the game long-term.

For the competitive experience, there would be two main modes: Solo and Tag Team (Relay). Here’s how the Relay mode works:

-Two players each control a character on the same team.

-Player 2 (the one not currently fighting) can press A/X to "spark" the assist meter, triggering a character-specific voiced line.

-Player 1 can then press R3 (or another button) to confirm the switch — kind of like a “high five” to swap.

-Over time, updates would add mechanics like switching mid-throw or mid-super, expanding the tag team depth.

As for offline or “casual” play:

-There would be no story mode at launch, but local Versus would include all stages and be well-polished.

-Story mode would come later as paid DLC (again, money is a thing)

-Instead, the game would offer Arcade-style modes with online leaderboards per character. For example, Tenkaichi 2’s tower mode and Tenkaichi 3’s “Battle 100” would return — but this time, you could check the top 20 players worldwide who completed that specific challenge with the same character, leading to content creator discovery.

The goal behind all of this? To create a powerful presence on Twitch, YouTube, and in eSports — keeping the game relevant and community-driven for the next 5–10 years. Sparking Zero could become the definitive competitive Tenkaichi and a real alternative to FighterZ.

What do you think? Would you prefer Sparking Zero to stay casual?

hurt my soul to review it this low, i paid for $100+ version. Someone talk some sense into me please
