Senzu bean how to#
The following moves are classified as Super Moves, read on to learn tips on how to use them effectively.

However, once Krillin is out of Senzu beans, he will start using his upward angled Ki Blast as as assist, which is way better than the rock. This is also Krillin’s Assist, and the pattern of rocks vs beans remains constant regardless if he is the active character or the assist. After Krillin has thrown his 3rd Senzu bean, he has officially run out and will only throw rocks. After the three rocks are thrown, Krillin will throw another Senzu bean, and the pattern will repeat. Keep in mind that these rocks do very little damage and are by far the worst special in the game. The medium version will throw the rock further than the light and the EX version will track the opponent. While he is throwing these rocks, the strength of the attack will determine how far the rock is thrown. However, after the first bean is thrown, Krillin will throw a rock for the next 3 times this move is performed. The first time you perform this move, Krillin will simply throw a senzu bean backwards, healing the assist character of your choice (light will heal the first assist, medium will heal the second). This fake can be a great way of messing with the opponent, and making them think you are going to attack, when you are really just forcing them to make a mistake. Doing so will cause the clone of Krillin to fly forward but disappear before striking the opponent. The unique thing about this special is that all three of the versions can be faked by holding down the attack button. All three of these do the same damage, so just use the appropriate one based on the spacing. The EX version will actually track the opponent. The medium version goes further than the light version and will go over the opponent if they are too close to you. This is one of the best ways of confirming into Krillin’s Destructo Disc Super, leading to massive damage!Īfterimage strike is a move that sends Krillin forward performing an aerial flip kick while a clone of Krillin remains on the ground. This move is an extremely potent counter that can stop your opponent dead in their tracks if they are rushing in doing anything unsafe. This will allow for Krillin to follow up with a combo if the opponent is close enough, or just a super if they are too far away. Krillin surrounds himself with a glow of light that will briefly stun the opponent. This move has standard priority so it will beat Ki Blasts and super dashes, but will lose to supers and other high priority moves. While this doesn’t affect the damage done by the special, it does allow Krillin to delay the attack, or jump before firing the move. The biggest difference between this and Goku’s Kamehameha is the fact that Krillin can charge his. The second way is after firing a normal Ki Blast, Krillin can press up or down+SP to change the direction of the blast and really confuse the opponent.Ī fairly standard beam special that has multiple uses. If Krillin just presses down and SP, he will fire a Ki Blast downwards, causing Krillin to propel off of the ground if he does it while standing. There are 2 different ways to change the angle of the Ki Blast. Krillin has a fairly unique Ki blast in that it can be angled in different ways. The following moves are classified as special moves, read on to learn tips on how to use them effectively. Like some other characters, Krillin can only use his supers on the ground, which makes them a little harder to combo into, but if you finish a combo on the ground, or catch the opponent off guard, they are going to be hurting! Players who will do well with Krillin are players who are good at planning for the long run and are good at saving meter for when it really counts.
