Why Everyone Hates UI Goku 

if the part at 1:27 is anything to go off of, Ginyu was actually following UI's movements, meaning he could see him, therefore meaning Ginyu is closer to achieving Ultra Instinct than we thought

Somehow it took me this long to realise that UI Goku's initial braindeadness directly links with the whole purpose of UI: to completely dodge and counter attacks without any form of consciousness in one's actions

UI Goku: *stares* Gt Goku: UA- *existence is gone*

Honestly, I think the worst part of UI at this point is just seeing him in every single match. You know how people always point out that the first day of a DLC, everyone is playing that character? UI's day has lasted for over 15 months now

I mean I gotta admit UI goku’s defense is fitting. Ultra instinct was made to be a form not for power like super sayian but a state of mind that gives one the ultimate defensive abilities to counter anything your foes throw at you… still doesn’t make him any less of an annoyance though.

I know this is gonna be a good vid. When going against a UI player,, they are either really good, or the exact opposite

For Guilty Gear players who don’t understand, imagine Sol with totsugeki.

His 5L is literally Sol's 6p: no wonder its a good anti air

This reminds me of when Leroy Smith first came out in Tekken 7, all of his moves by themselves (Excluding his parry) weren't all that special, but it's the fact that he had all of them that made him broken. He had a low crushing launcher, a sweep that always caused a knockdown and was very fast, a mid launcher that was neutral on block and could be spammed, a roundhouse with absolutely crazy range and hit mid so it couldn't be ducked or sidestepped, and that darn parry that activated quickly and was really easy to do. Again, the moves by themselves were pretty standard, but they were never all on one character meaning he had so many options when it came to starting combos and countering. He had a counter for literally everything.

3:52) Vegeta's, "I need help," will never get old.

UI Goku: "It appears my superiority has lead to some controversy."

Couple people have pointed out that Kefla can also combo after Jumping Down Heavy without super dash. But uh.... It doesn't fit my narrative so let's pretend she doesn't LOL Edit: Also Bardock can do a similar side-switch to UI shown at 8:28 by using his double jump to get behind the opponent. However, it is still less optimal for the sake of damage. It does make me feel dumb for using Bardock in that example though lmao

Of all the little edits in this video, Ginyu's eyes moving at 1:27 is my favorite as he realizes what a terrible mistake he's made. That said, confirmation that Videl still sucks is almost as funny, as is seeing that Zamasu is supposedly still just as bad. Those poor bastards.

First release ui is the perfect example of "dont mix speed based defence with high damage" balance wise

I really want a gif or clip of UI just banging his head on the stick at 6:15

I love how whenever i see a upload I drop whatever I'm doing to watch it

1:27 Remember Ginyu mains, always pose before a strike, even if they hit you, it's still your combo :)

I personally feel that all of his options are made that way to try to recreate the UI feeling. Ultra Instinct is all about not thinking, just letting the body react on its own. With UI Goku and his moveset, you don't have to think nearly as much for certain things as you would have to do with other characters (rejumps, knockdowns, you get me). You can just mash on reaction. But that's just a theory, a *gAME THEO-* Edit: still hate the guy tho. Haven't beaten a single one online.

Quote from Zyzx_ in Lobby Shenanigans 4: "His L is literally built different, I hate it!"

6:40 not so fun fact about this move, it can be triggered even if ui goku is behind you, i speak from experience

Literally thought I was watching a Shoyoumomo until the Ad ended. Great edits

I think the normal projectile invincibility on flips is cool, but the super projectile invincibility should only be for ex version

i swear with these cutscenes he’s been creating, he should be brought into the actual fighterz dev team.

Whis: *Smacks tf outta GT Goku* MUI Goku: “hold on, you not gonna treat my son like this”

5:57 theres a alternate timeline where this probably didn't get nerfed and the fact i have to live with that thought just utterly makes me sick and break down and cry along with vomit.

Ginyu really was the biggest chad this video. The only one who attacked Ui Goku fearlessly, and was able to see his movements.

I love that while everyone else gets either chased off or smacked down by UI but GT Goku just disintegrates in his very presence

Honestly I still really like him. UI is my favorite form and everything he does just kinda leaves me like OH GOD HE'S COOL even if I'm on the receiving end. I'm a skill-less idiot though so maybe I just suck too bad to be phased by losing to a specific character.

8:15 is Goku’s Real Anatomy

1:45 For some reason, the backflip into Level 3 reminds me of Magnamalo from Monster Hunter. It always starts its desperation move by flipping backwards, then roaring and powering up. It helps that said DM consists of dashing all over the place, too.

1:34 Gt got nerfed out of existence

I think it says a lot about UI that I really only pick him when I'm in a pure state of Coping And Seething™ and I just want to have easy games. I don't win more often with him than I do with my mains, but it's so so so so SO much easier.

Just tossing this out there: You could do a video on Roshi's leap and Kamehameha Boost, how it differs from Superdash, but especially how it compares to Videl's dodge in terms of being a character property that deviates from an otherwise-universal option (since Roshi's case seems to favor him more than Videl's favors her).

2:56 Ad ends.

You forgot to add that every other player mained him for several months, so you didn't just deal with it occasionally, you dealt with it about half the time. UI wouldn't be as bad if you only dealt with him every say 10 or 15 matches.

Thank you. I’m not well versed in FighterZ so I never knew why everyone hated him

All this Kid Icarus: Uprising music in the background makes me really happy! Amazing work like always!

The intro was a work of art, as was the rest of the video. I guess Sol’s channeling UI Goku with his far slash.

S tier characters: I fear no man, but that thing, "UI Goku", it scares me

1:17 LMAO

4:17 Goku just want to be like his dad

I like how at 8:13 you pointed out that ui Goku’s stuff isn’t that relevant at high levels because players need to understand that the game is really at a good state rn. No characters are broken and everything is pretty balanced, only thing stopping you from punishing mashers that make characters feel annoying is the frame delay, knowledge of the game, or you’re a masher yourself 😃

4:22 I read it as "Enormous Fisting"

I got an ad right when goku landed LOL (1:08)

1:57 he's just walking *MENACINGLY*

You frogot Ui lvl1 counter, can also counter assists; but if you crouch on your assist call; Ui will whiff the lvl1 counter, giving you a free punish. You spend 1 assist, Ui spend 1 bar to get punished~ 8:09 Kefla can do that too

I love the Kid Icarus Uprising soundtrack being put to work here! Pretty under rated soundtrack imo

I don't even play this game but because of the several youtubers I watch who do play, seeing UI Goku do UI Goku bs fills me with unfathomable rage

“Why everyone hates UI Goku” UI Goku proceeds to dodge Frieza’s death pizza’s on both attacks

7:30 This is basically makes this character absolutely not playable against. He's just can spam everything and he have literally every answer on every punish. This is the deffinition of "broken".

5:28 I still believe this is a reference to that Fist of the North Star Arc Sys Fighter

5:10, I think this is the best description for UI Goku I have ever found.

8:09 Well.....Kefla can, you prolly should've added a Tiny Kefla in the background doing her Lvl 3 animation (and it's funny since they're released at a similar time and it fits narratively)

Ultra Instinct is an godlike transformation that allows the user to move without needing to think - to have both the perfect offense and defense. Which basically equates to 0IQ strong character.

The only thing I wish UI Goku had was the Echo filter on his voice, I know some of his voice lines have it but I wish it was more prominent

I mean yeah, that's the long-short of it. And that's coming from a guy who doesn't use UI seriously and instead screws around with the light and medium flips in unoptimal ways and still gets sent death threats just because it's UI.

I mained him when I first got fighterz, I think people were happy to go up against a player who didn’t even know how to do rising heat lol.

Thank you UI Goku for spreading awareness on the importance of internet safety with Express VPN

even now, his defense is pretty unmatched. the sheer amount of defensive options gives him a shit ton of flexibility to turn the whole game into his favor, even with the balance patches.

The fact that Ginyu was able to follow Ultra instinct's movements proves that Ginyu is closer to Ui than many people think.

As a filthy UI lover, I'm only liking this because of the amazing Kid Icarus: Uprising music. Damn you.

Nice to see that someone appreciates the kid Icarus uprising ost

8:08 Kefla can do it too!

in short: he has melee jigglypuff syndrome aka is a defensive character in a mostly aggressive game

214H used to be even more powerful, could go past round start before it was nerfed. As for full invincible DP… SSJ4 Gogeta would like to say *hello.*

As a UI main, I'm here to say: All this shit is true. Except 6:32 cuz I've used that as a DP so many times to punish overaggressive players during wakeup.

I dont even play this game at that countered air dash at 3:20 made me go WTF?!

As a mid-high level dbfz player, I can definitely say his offensive abilities are just icing on the cake. If you’re ever mad about him just remember it’s the defensive shit that’s fucking dumb

Can't wait till Ultra Ego Vegeta comes and he just Touch of Death's everything.

7:38 when you do 2H in the ground then you delay a bit super dash then you delay light and do light again, then 2H forward air jump then light, you can do a air side switch.

This video released all my rage against this demon of a character. For now at least.

Perfection as always.

Short answer: Most characters in this game take skill. UI Goky is one of the characters that doesn't

1:34 If the former best character of the last season got erased from existence by this man's presence alone then that must mean that no one in the roster stands a chance.

I haven't played this game yet but that is what ultra instinct is at least it's accurate, probably most definitely not fair but accurate. Basically everyone has to have one goku on their team so that if you fight a goku you'll have a goku with older instinct to fight against.

The issue with UI Goku is that he is too much fun to play with which makes him even harder to drop as a character

The most annoying thing before the nerfs was how safe he was on whiff or even if you blocked him. He was unpunishable.

good I'd be disappointed if he wasn't OP he's freaking master instinct goku lol

U never mentioned how his autocombo beats literally everyother auto combo with a 3 hit 5lll

I love that the ost you used was all Kid Icarus Uprising

It’s crazy to me that 214H used to catch backdash, 22S was a full on DP, and the 2H and DHC Level 1 was totally safe And he’s still probably Top 5 after the nerfs

I just wanna say thanks to MoldyBagel for this very-well edited, very entertaining vid. (You sir deserve way more subs) Now I get why a lot or EVERYONE hates UI Goku. I still love him. He's just being UI Goku that's all. 🤷‍♂️

This is why I ban UI in my casual matches with friends and family.

I know this comment is 2 weeks late but I really enjoy how what’s going on in the video matches the music tempo during the Lightning Round part (as well as other parts in the video, but it’s most satisfying in that specific section)

After you know the matchup against UI it becomes tolerable, the thing is you can’t play against him like any other character, specially if he’s on point, his wake up, ki blast, damage output can be annoying but since this is a two touch game it becomes easier to deal with.

I didn’t think we would need a video on why 𝕲𝕺𝕯 is hated so much

9:16 LMAO Vegeta on top of Frieza so good!

Its funny watching these years later. Now UI is considered one of the worst characters in the game. That rollback patch sure did a number on this game lmao

Flippies are great for scaring your opponent in tremendous amounts until they panic and die

It feels like they made UI as a non-playable boss character then were like 'hey lets make them playable instead' then they put him in without any changes

I love how I was fighting someone rn that was on my level but I was losing a lot because they play a brain dead ui so as I say “God I hate Ui” literally this vid pops up and I’m out here thinking that it’s fate

B o n k 1:01

It's Ultra Instinct, that's why

I heard that Sir Gideon Offnir "I need help" voice line

Bonus fact about the auto combo: In a video made by Lythero in a battle against a UI Goku He got out of hitstun and then autocombo right off of it

Just wish every character was as cool and complex as him, he has so many cool and cool looking attacks that it literally feels cool to just have him around.

I still see nothing wrong with my main he’s a perfectly balanced character

2:33 IS THIS WHAT I THINK IT IS??? LETS GOOOOOOOOOOO

*The editing on this video is phenomenal .*

AND on top of that he's a dlc character that was busted AF on release, so there's that whole angle of making the DLC characters busted to improve sales.
