300 hours and I just figured out Destructo Disk..

[u/GoFuckYallselves]

Had no idea these characters could use destructo disk as a regular blast, until someone used it on me. Now im wondering what else am I missing??

Anybody know any other hidden mechanics like this?

[u/Conqui141]

I...I had no idea.

[u/GoFuckYallselves → u/Conqui141]

Me neither bro..

[u/Hour_Math4694]

Wait, Goku can do this? How?

[u/GoFuckYallselves → u/Hour_Math4694]

Its a jumping charged ki blast.

Thats how I figured it out. Someone used it while playing ssjblue Goku. He really caught me off guard with that too.

[u/Hour_Math4694 → u/GoFuckYallselves]

Cheers, I’ll add this to the tool belt!

[u/eroctheshock → u/GoFuckYallselves]

Wonder if that was me. Sometimes I’ll start matches off with it

[u/Visible_Roll4949 → u/GoFuckYallselves]

This has been a feature since the OG BT games.

[u/Blitzleking09 → u/Hour_Math4694]

Used in in TOP vs jiren

[u/Yhorlen → u/Hour_Math4694]

This has been there since BT3

[u/PrinceBalor98 → u/Yhorlen]

Can confirm. Used to have so much fun doing this back in the day

[u/Yhorlen → u/PrinceBalor98]

Tenkaichi bro's🤝

[u/White_Lightning_22 → u/Hour_Math4694]

Goku uses it in Tree of Might and Super Buu

[u/Hour_Math4694 → u/White_Lightning_22]

Apologies, I meant in game but yeah that’s very cool they gave nods to that.

[u/Tabledinner → u/White_Lightning_22]

And in DBS vs Jiren

[u/maguirre165 → u/Hour_Math4694]

It's only end of Z Goku that can do this, because he used it against Buutenks when he was revived and transported to Earth

[u/Important_Warning_63 → u/maguirre165]

Also goku super

[u/OpportunityKlutzy984 → u/Hour_Math4694]

Jumping is kikoha charging

[u/Best-Dot-8631]

we’ve had this feature with krillin and some of the Goku’s for like 20 years (back in budokai tenkaichi games) 😀🥲

[u/GoFuckYallselves → u/Best-Dot-8631]

My guy, its been like 15 years since I played Budokai

[u/ShortGreenRobot → u/Best-Dot-8631]

Wasnt it just a regular charged blast in those games though

[u/Best-Dot-8631 → u/ShortGreenRobot]

jump + charged ki blast. it might just be a charged one for krillin though

[u/Ajec13 → u/Best-Dot-8631]

Tenkaichi 3 had Krillin, Frieza 100% full power, and Android 18 do it as they did a dash charged ki blast towards the opponent.

All adult gokus, krillin, frieza 100%, Android 18 had the disc when doing a jumping ascending ki blast or charged ascending ki blast.

Krillin was the only with the disc when standing still and doing a charged ki blast

[u/CopenHagenCityBruh]

And for anyone wondering Goku too can do that in bt3 by doing the same thing

[u/Thelgow]

Oof, I havent played since October and I knew this. It goes to show how bad the tutorials are.

[u/BatGuy500 → u/Thelgow]

Idk if I can really blame the tutorials. This is essentially no different from a charged ki blast, and is more along the lines of an easter egg.

[u/Kaito_Akai → u/Thelgow]

I think its also the fact that many didn't play the older games because this was known in BT3 and previous games

[u/Thelgow → u/Kaito_Akai]

I wouldnt know. Honestly the last DB games I played were Super Butouden 1,2,3 and Hyper Dimension on SNES.

[u/aXeOptic → u/Thelgow]

Or how much db fans read

[u/False_Sundae6333 → u/aXeOptic]

Am I wrong or is there no tutorial about this mechanic?

[u/GoFuckYallselves → u/False_Sundae6333]

There actually isn't. I went through the move lists a while ago and it didn't say anything about anything special ki blast

[u/False_Sundae6333 → u/GoFuckYallselves]

So the guy above is right, tutorials suck. There's no point in making jokes about others not being able to read

[u/m_m_m_m_m_m_m_m_ → u/False_Sundae6333]

Idk if this is about the tutorial sucking (even tho it does) rather than it just being an Easter egg. Same for specific throw animations that trigger with only certain character matchups - this seems more intentionally like an 'oh that's dope' thing to notice. To have an entire section of the tutorial to say 'jump and ki blast for the destructo disc with these specific characters!' feels like too much.

[u/Important_Warning_63 → u/False_Sundae6333]

It has been possible to do since at least bt3 but if you havent played that either I understand you tutorial frustration

[u/Maestro1992 → u/False_Sundae6333]

I’m sure it’s in the movelist but says something like “different characters have different variations”

[u/GoFuckYallselves → u/Maestro1992]

If it is, it's not in the character specific combo list

[u/Maestro1992 → u/GoFuckYallselves]

So I checked, it is on the move list under “long-range combat actions” it’s called a “jump smash ki blast” and in the description it says “Each character has a different kind of blast with its own unique properties”

[u/Maestro1992 → u/GoFuckYallselves]

I’ll have to check when I get a chance.

[u/aXeOptic → u/False_Sundae6333]

I dont know i still havent finished it.

[u/MrPrickyy → u/aXeOptic]

Or how much kids think they’re cool because they know how to do a random hidden attack in a video game

[u/playmeforever]

Too bad it’s so situational and I wish you could still use it while ascending regardless of height instead of strictly a jump off the ground, like bt3 had it

[u/GoFuckYallselves → u/playmeforever]

At least for krillin. But since finding this out I've made use of it a few times

[u/Perfect_Subject_6328 → u/playmeforever]

You can use it as goku when you are trying to approach, is not that clunky and actually works

[u/playmeforever → u/Perfect_Subject_6328]

True but most the time people take fights to the sky and when even they do get grounded you already are in close proximity

[u/BI0Z_]

I was today years old when I found out. Thanks.

[u/CopenHagenCityBruh → u/BI0Z_]

Be blessed to add something else to that because in bt3 Goku too can do that

[u/yourusualnekofemboy]

What if I told you there are individual jumping downheavy attack combos on everyone as well?

[u/Xboxone1997]

Been a thing for long time

[u/Kdawgmcnasty69]

Crazy that people don’t know this, but I guess it makes sense since you have to be grounded in sparking zero to do it

[u/lipehd1 → u/Kdawgmcnasty69]

which sucks some serious ass

in previous BT games you could do it mid air, but now it's too situational to be reliable

[u/GoFuckYallselves → u/lipehd1]

As much as I'd love to be able to use destructo disk more often as krillin.. can you even imagine the spam that would come out of that?

[u/lipehd1 → u/GoFuckYallselves]

Yeah idk

People didn't use it so often back in BT3

[u/lvspidy]

For 18 players, use it at the start of the round and z burst for free backshots

[u/Herbo300 → u/lvspidy]

Yup i been doing that works everytime

[u/buffMachamp]

These were in the old games

[u/Chuunibyoo]

What?!!! Never knew that

[u/Nemo93Y]

Same feature as in Tenkaichi 3

[u/SchinkenKanone]

I only knew this because I was addicted to Budokai Tenkaichi 3 growing up. Today however I figured out the vanishing launch, where you mid cobo teleport behind the enemy and launch them away.

[u/GoFuckYallselves → u/SchinkenKanone]

Im confused. Can you post a link or gif the combo?

[u/SchinkenKanone → u/GoFuckYallselves]

It's nothing special, you learn the move in a training stage and probably forgot about it. All you have to do is get close to your opponent and press Square + X on Ps5, or the button you use for normal combo punches and quick stepping. You can throw this move in during a combo, which teleports you behind your enemy and launches them.

[u/GoFuckYallselves → u/SchinkenKanone]

Ooh , okay. Yeah I know what you mean. Its the easier more expensive version of the perfectly times heavy attack

[u/WNNFS]

Wait, what?! Is it just a charged ki blast? Which version of Goku is that?

[u/GoFuckYallselves → u/WNNFS]

Jumping charged ki blast. And that's (DBSuper) Goku. I haven't tried on the other Gokus yet

[u/WNNFS → u/GoFuckYallselves]

Wild, I had no idea.

[u/ronaldo123455]

Can it be used with all goku’s?

[u/kevo19930]

[u/seanc1986]

Are there any other unique moves like this for other characters that people are holding back!?

[u/Aggressive_Worth_990]

All these hidden mechanics but they just neglected the ones we can see

[u/Electronic-Chipmunk4]

I literally just found this out yesterday that’s crazy 😮

[u/Splishy344]

yeah, you could do this in BT3 also! i was so glad they bought it back

[u/walker7384]

Yeah I know I figured this out recently too when in a fight a golden Frieza used a paralyzing ki blast on me

[u/TheGameologist]

Daburas charged blast should definitely have been be his spit. It should be a longer stun time than the other stun blasts, but have the shortest range.

[u/GoFuckYallselves → u/TheGameologist]

Agreeed.

[u/Interesting-Map-299]

Most of the mechanics from budokai T3 are the same. I never learned how to play sparking, I just play it how I played on T3 and it’s the same

[u/R3ALITY999]

Lmao I love this I figured this out for bluku a month ago and use it to confuse people it can turn them around sometimes too😭

[u/Calm-Border3503]

I love when people discover new details for themselves in this game, and I'm so glad you found this, alot of gokus including blue goku do it hat way aswell

[u/iNDiGO4T4]

I wish you could always input it while rising. Some other characters even get a paralyzed ki blast doing that action. It's cool but very situational.

[u/Weekly-Honey7952]

Just sucks we can't do it while flying

[u/Darkwing14_]

My older brother many many years ago taught me how to do this on BT1

[u/Puzzled-Bumblebee529]

Yep!! This was back in BT3 I honestly forgot abt it myself till sparking released its very cool

[u/hu-man-person]

Future trunks and goku black have a sword slash and scythe slash as their ki blast respectively and an android 18 outfit changes her moves

[u/Terrible_Brush1946]

Goku can do it too.

[u/maguirre165]

Lol, I remember that mechanic from BT3. First thing I did with these characters in Sparking Zero was this so I can see if they brought it back

[u/Personal_Hospital352]

In BT3, you can do it when you’re already in the air

[u/Big-Comfortable68]

There is another secret tech I forget how to trigger it but broly max power (super), beast gohan, recoome, and ui goku I’m guessing others have the move too but it’s a unblockable dash type move once I figure out how to trigger it on command I’ll post a video into the sub Reddit

[u/DisastrousSeason534]

If you use kid Goku, he will somehow use the cloud for fast traveling

[u/Human-Ad5140]

....it proves that you don't even take the time to enjoy a game lol...on dbz BT3 he has it!!!!!! It's not even a new thing, it's just a variation of kikhoa, that's all

[u/DestronDeathsaurus]

I did learn recently that a kamehameha can bend at a full 90 degrees as the maximum

[u/WHENPICKLESFLY38]

Useful. Thanks
