Broly (Z) In Versus And Online Matches
In his first form, Broly (Z) is pretty tame in terms of his overall stats. Additionally, his DP cost in Team Battles is a relatively low cost of five, allowing more room for other higher-cost characters.
His first skill, Wild Sense, will avoid the next melee attack from the opponent and automatically throw a counterattack. Whilst this skill is useful, his second skill is more worth saving you Skill Points for, as upon activation it will instantly place Broly into Sparking Mode, giving him a much-needed boost in combat.
Full-Power Energy Wave fires a beam of energy directly at the opponent, dealing moderate damage. This is used as a range-poking tool to put pressure on opponents attempting to charge Ki or as a combo launch finisher to sneak in some extra damage. Alternatively, High Speed Rush can be used instead as it deals slightly more damage.
High-Speed Rush should be used cautiously as if the opponent is too high above or too low below Broly, it can miss entirely and put you in a bad position.
His ultimate, Super Explosion Wave, creates an explosion from your current position and deals high damage to the opponent caught in the blast. Unlike his prior Special Moves, using a combo launch finisher will risk pushing the opponent out of range, thus making the ultimate useless.
Instead, keep the opponent as close as you can before activation by either stunning them with a Gut Punch or slamming them into the ground.

Broly (Z) Super Saiyan In Versus And Online Matches
In his Super Saiyan form, Broly's Ki is completely restored, and his overall damage gets a substantial increase. He acquires two new combo moves, a single new skill, and three new Special Moves at different costs.
His new skill, Saiyan Spirit, further increases all forms of his damage for a short duration and costs an additional Skill Point to a total of three. Activating Saiyan Spirit before engaging in a combo and finishing with a Special Move will net major damage, putting you ahead of your opponent.
Bloody Smash rushes directly at the opponent, dealing moderate damage. Use this as a combo finisher, to keep the opponent close, allowing for a follow-up assault. Trap Shooter cannot be used after a combo launcher as the orbs spread slightly and may not deal as much damage as Bloody Smash.
Eraser Cannon replaces the Super Explosive Wave explosion ultimate in favor of a thrown orb. In Sparking Mode, end a launch combo with Eraser Cannon to deal immensely high damage to your opponent. Pair this with Saiyan Spirit and watch as the opponent's health bar vanishes.
Further increase the Eraser Cannon's damage by boosting it during its start-up with the R2/RT trigger.

Broly (Z) Legendary Super Saiyan In Versus And Online Matches
In his final form, Broly regains all of his Ki and becomes an absolute monster with massive damage increases to all forms of damage. Additionally, he gains a super armor against basic Ki Blastswhich will no longer stagger him.
Whilst he is unable to be staggered by Ki Blasts, he will still receive damage from them.
No longer needing to buff his abilities, Saiyan Spirit is replaced with Explosive Wave which works as a defensive tool. If you are struggling against an opponent's melee onslaught, simply activate the skill and immediately interrupt them, placing you both back to neutral.
His Special Moves keep the same format as his prior form with one rush move and two blast moves. Eraser Cannon and Gigantic Hammer work exactly as they did in the previous transformation as combo finishers. The only thing to keep in mind is Gigantic Hammer's shorter range and increased cost.
On top of the increased cost and shortened range, Gigantic Hammer has a chance to miss the opponent if you are on uneven footing. Be sure to use it when you are at the minimum range from the opponent.
Omega Blaster is the most powerful move in Broly's entire kit. Not only does the ultimate deal major damage to your opponent, but it also has the added benefit of being completely unblockable. Getting it to land consistently is as simple as getting your opponent into a stun or launch before unleashing it.
After transforming into any of the Super Saiyan forms, Broly cannot return to his previous forms.
