Comparing a few characters in Jump Force

Discussion

Comparable means using/fighting them feels kind of similar in some way. Here are 8 pairs of characters that are comparable in my opinion. Some characters are naturally good at zoning (assisting) while some dominates close combats.

And of course, the way of using a character is never hard-coded, being creative and unpredictable often helps you win a game.

​

1. Hisoka and Kakashi

If you hate guard break cheese then you must hate Hisoka and Kakashi. Sadly for the time-being this is a feature instead of a bug.

-Both has pretty fast combos (first 4 light attack).

-Bungee gum is safe on-block and good for surprise attack. Lightning blade, huh, safe on-block too but it brings yourself towards your enemy.

-Kumui shuriken is slightly better than card game because it stuns people longer, also it can be used mid air.

-Hisoka's counter is definitely more useful than that lightning clone.

-Kakashi has the grab-into-ultimate ability while Hisoka doesn't.

Overall I say both are very useful and popular. Hisoka is better at punishing spammers and Kakashi is more of a threat when he awakens.

​

2. Goku, Vegeta and Naruto

- All three has a long distance attack which can be used in mid-air and you can cover your switch-out, use as the combo finisher or simply spam.

- Both Goku and Naruto has grab-into-ultimate but don't forget: Naruto has to go awakened first because it changes the flying distance of his grab.

In terms of popularity I think it is Goku > Vegeta > Naruto. Goku is better at grab while Vegeta is better at zoning (support). Sorry Naruto, people rarely use you although you are one of the big-three.

​

3. Yusuke and Boa Hancock

We all know which move are we talking about when we talk about Yusuke and Hancock.

- Pistol kiss is slightly better than spirit gun because it cause your opponent to fall down and get jumped on, instead of knocking them away. Especially when you have Toguro's support. In this way you can take 30% of your opponent's health away by landing a single pistol kiss.

- Both have that nutorious grab-spirit gun (pistol kiss).

I say overall Yusuke is still better because he also has access to grab-ultimate and a command-grab.

​

4. Luffy and Almight

- Luffy's close combo is faster than Almight

- Both has incredibly good unblockable. Luffys' is faster on startup while Almights has insane tracking (I've never seen people side-step it).

- Almight's ultimate is surely better than Luffy's. Gear fourth is just too slow so overall I prefer using Almight.

​

5. Yugi and Kaiba

- I like Yugi's close combo more. It's fast and it's hard to tell whether it's safe to punish him. Kaiba's combo is kinda slow but you can grab safely after 3 light attack.

- Both dark magician girl and blue eyes ultimate dragon are very good. Former can do insane damage if you have enough bars. Latter cannot be side-stepped and great for punishing those who loves rush smash/side-steps.

- Needless to mention the guard break cheese that both characters can do from "Draw".

Overall I think Kaiba's play style is just more aggressive and has less openings for your opponents.

​

6. Kaguya and Seiya

- In terms of their "fist barrage" that you see most of the time, Kaguyas has better tracking but Seiya's can be used mid-air to cover switch out.

- If they really want to buff Kaguya they should make almighty push unblockable. Kaguya only has one useful move while Seiya has two.

- Both have garbage ultimate. You opponents can have a cup of tea, take a shower and then block it.

Seiya can become a great character which is comparable to Luffy and Almight if devs improve his ultimate.

​

7. Kenshin and Killua

- Both are extremely good at close combat. You always have to watch out for their supers which can come from no where.

- Nine dragon rush is safe on block(correct me if I am wrong) and lightning palm, lol, you know what's coming next if it connects.

Overall Killua is more scary to me because of his three useful supers.

​

8. Deku and Sanji

- Both are under-used but they are actually pretty good at aero combat.

- Sanji has better ultimate because it can connect from grabs(escapable btw) or Joue shot.

Sanji would be a great character if he could fight females.

​

Let me know your thoughts.
