The demon king fears no vanish steps

#

I dont use him but

worn drift

#

New hero legit has moves that spams vanish step and has extra movespeed

#

dabura upscale cause he can oneshot spit the whole map

fluid karma
#

Don't worry my Dabulings, the next patch will definitely buff him

sonic matrix
sharp kayak
#

even before that he was still weak

#

like i think his difficulty to make work is a big thing

#

a lot of herous are just easier to use

#

with less inherant counterplay , like dabura cant do anything to double vanish or the cooldown reduction

#

Bad poke as well and kind of needs a heath buff to survive

worn drift
#

It'd also be a good change to remove a step in the petrification process

#

In specific us having to hit an enemy with our slashes once the bar is full

clear fulcrum
# sonic matrix literally revert darkness spear and he's fine

reverting dark spears changes and just making the spears stay in the opponent that was hit for longer fixes so much about Dabura to the point where he's viable

could they do more to help him? obviously, and he'd definitely still need the help even after this change, but Toshi does Toshi things and doesn't care for anything but Gohan Dabura

A change like this would make him at LEAST 30% better off rip

I think the spear and the burn s3 inflicts should also passively fill bar

How has this man got so many buffs and STILL IS TRASH 😭

#

Dawg I played him so much in the beta

#

Did yall try him?

#

heard zamasu's buffs were damn good

#

hope my king got what he deserves too 🥺

fluid karma
#

I dunno,I was playing 18

marble crest
#

His ult seems like a punish if the enemy team pushes too hard
Spear someone or even multiple at lv3 -> ult = free petrify on the most dangerous person

#

You can possibly just ult on boss during team fights just to create pressure on boss secure characters

marble crest
#

It's It's good for that very last hit on boss

#

so dabura is kinda decent now or nah?

#

ACTUAL DABURA BUFFS!!!!!!!! Dabura Dabura Dabura

marble crest
fluid karma
#

He went from "Dabura tier" to "Low tier"

sonic matrix
#

how much does the doom rays heal for now?

sharp kayak
#

its decent

#

idk if its scales on enemies hit cause still hitting multiple people is not rly possible

#

but his 1v1s are better

#

so what do yall think is the leveling rn

#

still seems the same way with focusing on skill 3

sonic matrix
sharp kayak
#

Or your skill 2

#

And with keflas damage and speed rn

#

Idk how bro has a chance to touch her

#

Or even get stone off

#

Maybe ult but stacks fall off so fast anyway

scenic plover
#

hows dabura after the buffs?

sharp kayak
#

He is a bit better in 1v1s

#

But his weakness still exist

#

His ult buff is a god send

#

Imo he is now maybe toppo teir or lower

#

But sadly

#

Kefla is out

#

Kefla bends dabura over the table and spanks him

#

If you see her and your in a group

#

Swap

#

Swap lanes with your other dps

echo matrix
#

the demon king does not fear any mortal even more then before

green grotto
#

If S2 can be fixed with lower cooldown and Spears increasing per level then he would be top tier

The demon king fears no mortal

#

on a real note, i'm happy with his buffs

he's not good but you can actually use him and actually help the team

sonic matrix
#

never go up against Kefla you literally can't win against her you will die 100% of the time even with the darkness spear speed boost

clear fulcrum
# serene tundra which cards do you guys use on him now?

i've been using snowball, barrier and LBJ, though you can swap snowball with too easy or even lightning swift if you feel like you can't stack kills with it, LBJ is hella flexible but i just prefer that extra movement and escape potential over the others, though anything except guardian angel is basically viable

barrier is basically a must, but maybe you could get away with steel skin depending on matchups. having the ability to take hits, pick someone off, then dip away is very good imo

marble crest
#

Or just a quick delete button if you already petrified someone

#

I swear the 1 thing dabura needs rn is his darkness spear to go from 4/4/4 seconds on leveling up to 4/4.5 or 5/5 or 6 seconds so you can actually petrify easier mid-late game

#

Without backstab

sonic matrix
marble crest
#

Especially if you are under attack while trying to nuke someone who's already petrified with your ult

clear fulcrum
#

or make it so when he hits level 3 on the spear, if you hit multiple spears on the same person the time it stays in them increases

marble crest
#

I also feel like his S3 applying "Burning" should do a bit more since the length of the effect goes down if you vanish or during high speed flight

#

I know the move applies movment speed down but maybe Burning should not be removed by going into high speed flight and instead slow you down during it by like 20%/30%

sonic matrix
#

only DOT in the game that runs out when you move btw

marble crest
#

Dabura's whole thing is that he can be dealt with by using vanishing steps so why give it a 2nd counter that can be done by literally moving?

#

And why does the burning effect not really play into his kit of chasing down survivors or being in 1v1's?

fluid karma
#

So how is dabura?

clear fulcrum
fluid karma
#

Hey that's a huge improvement

#

I didn't think they could salvage dabura from what he was

#

Going for Dabura Tier to Low Tier is a leap

sharp kayak
#

kefla runs you though

#

outside of her

#

uub is also a bad matchup

#

but broly is winable if you play well

marble crest
#

...I think I'll submit that as feedback
Change "Burning" status effect from "Receive DMG at regular intervals. You can reduce the length of this effect by executing a Vanishing Step or moving at high speed"

to "Receive DMG at regular intervals. Reduces Movment Speed during High Speed Flight. You can reduce the length of this effect by executing a Vanishing Step"

sharp kayak
#

vegito is also winable as he cant rly stop you from pitting

fluid karma
#

So dabura is basically against the 2 best dpses

#

*bad against

#

Uh Oh

sharp kayak
#

ehhh

#

its like

clear fulcrum
sharp kayak
#

idk how to beat that

fluid karma
#

I mean,i feel that's more because it's been less than a day since kefla came out

#

She's unique in her design,it'll take time for people to get her

#

Once she's optimized fully dabura will struggle

sharp kayak
#

im not even exagerating

clear fulcrum
sharp kayak
#

the movespeed she gets is just bonkers

sharp kayak
#

its like saying vayne from league isnt a cancer matchups for melee cause

#

you can oneshot her

marble crest
#

Ngl dabura feels like a "jack of all trades master of none" but specifically in melee combat 1v1's

sharp kayak
#

sadly she has pretty easy tool to escape that and run you down for making a mistake

clear fulcrum
sharp kayak
#

and you still have to fight enemy tank

clear fulcrum
sharp kayak
#

especially as a mlee

marble crest
#

His attacks aren't really insane without petrification and his defense isn't too impressive

marble crest
#

Idk if it's just good luck but dabura's ult seems very good for getting the last hit on bosses

#

I would like more matches to confirm this but queuing for damage is quite the wait

#

Would double green wicked warrior be good on dabura?

obviously it wasn't a one-sided beatdown on my end, but it wasn't unwinnable since i'm actually able to kill her

#

How does super start S1 feel? Having that amount of healing early

sonic matrix
earnest ridge
#

Yeah best case scenario for dabura is still a surprise attack or what we call an ambush inside the clouds and whatever

#

His best teammate so far for me is either cooler or bardock if you want to guarantee your passive working

fluid karma
#

Dabura actually functions now

sharp kayak
#

Or do you heal more when hitting more targets

sonic matrix

#

Same build as before the lmao

sonic matrix
sonic matrix
#

why don't they have it where the more Petrification Gauge they have the more the secondary effects of his moves effectiveness increase like Dooms Ray heals more, Darkness Spear gives more movement speed and Evil Flame burn effect burns longer and deals more damage?

like they clearly are moving him in a all rounder direction

That's a fire idea

I also think the burn should slowly fill up petrify gauge and actually petrify if the gauge is full.

An issue i am having with dabura is that even if I fill up the gauge I cant get the spit off

Dabura just boosted me to S rank

#

Hey guys

#

Got some questions matchup wise

#

So we know vs kefla it’s hard asf to tak her down

#

So I’m wondering if into her it’s better to take build up rather than too easy.

#

And take on a more farming playstyle . Ofc you still show up to bosses and try to get them

#

I see too easy as a rly good card for early aggression

#

But vs kefla hard to rly do that aggression and not get rundown so maybe it’s best to go build up and scale to late when you can play around clouds easier

#

Also with helpers idk if the pres is even better than nail?

clear fulcrum
#

into kefla you might just be better off running strategic retreat or snowball if you're confident you can get kills or assists, then pair that up with steel skin and defense step or LBJ

build up is a better choice over too easy for the matchup, but in my experience i've been better running strat retreat to get away or snowball and after i get some assists i can pick her off

#

you can also go barrier over steel skin, just depends on the enemy team lineup

clear fulcrum
#

largely depends how you play dabura

serene tundra
#

which Skill priority do you guys use on dabura?

sharp kayak
#

Put a point in ult whenever you can

#

Skill 3 could be good too as well

serene tundra
#

i did this: S3>S1>S2>ult>S2>S1>ult>S2>S1>ult>S3>S3

#

It feels great that the dabura channel now has discussion in it,instead of just

clear fulcrum
#

i max 2 on super start

Shouldn't you max s1 since it fills gauge the most of all of his skills?

If I must be honest

With that rank of yours it should be very easy to snowball with him

-Dabura-
↳ Passive: Demon's Domain
・Petrification Gauge buildup for enemy heroes within AoE decreased: Every 0.25s: 3~1 → 2~1
↳ Skill 2: Darkness Spear
・Movement Speed Boost effect when moving towards enemy heroes pierced by a spear amount adjusted:
 75/100/100 → 50/75/100
Just revert these or even better add an effect where the more petrification the enemies have the more the better secondary effects are OR the more petrification the enemies have the more debuffs start to affect them like all attack down that starts at 200 and ends at 600 attack down facing him because they are focusing on evasion

you fill you petrification bar almost completly on skill 1 and on ult so a team wide , debuff would make him too much

sonic matrix
#

should i make a another post with the correction?

marble crest
#

I think dabura would actually be good if his darkness spear lasted for 4 seconds again instead of 3 seconds

#

Add some backstab shenanigans and that's 8 seconds you can't vanish for when he's not repeatedly throwing it from the backlines

light kraken
#

I'm gonna be honest

#

Dabura is already good

#

He needs only a good character in lane that helps him

#

And he's a monster

#

He does not deserve buffs

#

And neither nerfs

#

Maybe a bit of rework

#

But he feels good now

fierce hornet
#

good at what? countering melee dps in a 1v1?

sonic matrix
# light kraken Dabura is already good

Actually was brainwashed by the jokey "dabura is top 1" memes when a single vanishing step undoes an entire perfect skill rotation and even when you catch them lacking with no vanish you have to STILL be in rush attack range To actually stone them even if you do land that his damage boost during it still doesn't cover for opponents who have greens sometimes.
This doesn't even cover him having actual trash base defense and meh HP which will melt like snow in any team fight.

light kraken
#

But he needs someone to help him for the things he really wants

#

I did exaggerated that it was good

#

He isn’t dogwater impossible but still a harder dps to pull off

clear fulcrum
sharp kayak
#

Maybe

#

Just rly frustrating to solo carry on him

clear fulcrum
#

you can't solo carry as him since the game's a boss meta rn and he can't secure bosses, though thats where your team comes in

sharp kayak
#

Cause he still needs people to help him get his passive off . 2v1 are hard to pull off . And he actually has skill shots and can miss his spears unlike half the cast

sharp kayak
#

Recently I played him in solo

#

Struggled fighting vegito cause he has so much range for free to kite you

#

And his dashes makes it incredibly hard to stone

#

Even if you land spears he can still dash on minions to kite the wait time . And then you will need a second volley

#

And with how low hp he has and no reliable sustain . Bro needs his one combos

clear fulcrum
sharp kayak
#

Basic stuff

#

Too easy . Gaint slayer and defense step

#

It was a rly bad place maybe cause he had snowball . Gaint slayer and double dash

clear fulcrum
#

i'd really recommend using build up instead, when i tried it i just couldn't go back to any other card, it really boosts his sustainability late-game

#

pair it with his s1 heal and his sustain can skyrocket

sharp kayak
#

Cause you farm more , and you can’t run people down as easily late game cause herous are a lot stronger late game

clear fulcrum
sharp kayak
#

Talking about kefla and uub

#

Herous like them

#

Kefla aoe and movespeed late game becomes a serious problem

#

Vegito as well dash range is massive

#

Maybe it’s skill issue Dabura

clear fulcrum
# sharp kayak Talking about kefla and uub

kefla's annoying but i'd honestly say that dabura can take her by surprise so often it's kinda crazy, there are times where she just dies if you can land the spear

she can prevent you from running so ig it's a high-risk high-reward type of deal

#

uub is uub, he's just generally very strong and can melt most dps characters, he can take more of a beating then kefla can too

#

vegito can mess you up sometimes but i've never really noticed his dashes being a big issue for me, his ult on the other hand is a VERY big issue for dabura sometimes

sharp kayak
clear fulcrum
sharp kayak
#

Since he can dash on mobs he can rly dodge your slow skill shots

clear fulcrum
#

yeah i could see that messing up a confirm

sharp kayak
#

Yeah even with the combo if he dashes he can dodge my ult or skill 1

#

You think dabura could get touched next patch

#

Imo

#

Movespeed on fire hit

#

Skill 3 I mean

#

Would make dabura much much better

clear fulcrum
#

i've mainly only played against vegitos who are aggressive and don't really run with their dash

lament rapids
#

I think a slight buff in health and defense is what he needs the most rn

I play vegito and people don’t rly learn to read

#

His ult is still scary though

clear fulcrum
# lament rapids Yes it’s very easy to counter

i was testing builds in training and i think that backstab could be very powerful on a full aggro build since you can spear someone and then spear again like 2 or 3 seconds after

i can't make use of it since i'm more defensive, but maybe you could do something with it

The fact dabura is the only melee hero with no dashes or rly good sustain tool

I'm willing to bet my WHOLE LIFE bandai will nerf/rework alot of skill 2s like dabura's just like what happened in this season rn where they added this reduced cd vanish divine draw and that made them adjust the divine draws that's got something going on about vanishing

Best way to play Dabura:

  • Don't play Dabura

It's mainly the tanks like Bardock who are designed to absorb multiple hits.

And SS4 Vegeta's "shield" move makes him invulnerable completely.

if i don't use S2 first i don't get to close up people but if i use it first and unable to petrified in 2-3 sec then it all for a waste

so clearly the idea here is to not initiate with S2

Ok dabura with elder kai in game truly seems nuts

You can take defensive step then just pop down the helper
when you're in a 1v2

Or repeatedly use skills on boss

Dabura useful on boss finally

elder kia is alr but imo

its simply a walk away from it and they lose all value ttype of stuff

#

Best cards for Dabura right now?

sonic matrix
#

Build up, steel skin and Backstab

worn drift
#

I mostly agree, but I personally don't use Backstab

sonic matrix
#

then how do you 100% get stone spit?

worn drift
#

I also like to push and keep a bit of guage on the people on my lane

#

They should be low enough by that point that rush attacks can finish them off, but in the situation they still have too much health:

#

The Elder Kai fix that for me

#

I personally run Pursuer instead of backstab

#

The speed & damage boost you get from it, plus the speed boost from hitting an enemy with your spears makes it almost impossible for them to run

#

I force them to fight

#

Only issues with this strategy would be if more teamates appear, but I have some faith that my teamates will help me in these situations

#

Almost all of the meta tanks right now have ways to support me

#

Also I've now reached the top 500 for Dabura, so I'll need to adjust my goal a small amount, maybe towards top 100?

echo matrix
#

(i got to top 150 dabura with this)

#

elder kai fixes the spear issue

#

so theres not much point using backstab

worn drift
#

Hm

#

Honestly sounds pretty fun

#

I'll probably stick to my normal setup for my ranked grind though

#

Might try it for fun later though

slender mango
#

I heard dabura was bad back then

#

how is he now?

#

last time I played was like season 2

#

is he better now

clear fulcrum
# slender mango is he better now

he's actually decent now, he's not meta but he's definitely viable still

if you aim your spears right, he can be extremely deadly, especially on the lowered s2 cooldown

#

you won't be picking him up and carrying lobbies but if you put a little bit of time into him the demon king can treat you very well Dabura

clear fulcrum
# slender mango oh

at the start of last season he got nerfed hella hard but near the end he got buffed, and got a minor buff this season

basically what changed is his s1 now heals him whenever he gets a hit off on it along with the damage being increased and his super comes out really, really fast and it also fills up 70% of his gauge

this season his s3 got a increase in burn damage and something with his speed got buffed too

he's VERY dependent on his spear and he can't really secure bosses, but he can still do a lot in the right hands

slender mango
#

oh wow ight

#

so I'm assuming you just S1 and try to S2

#

S3 to poke

slender mango
#

oh yeah what's his skill priority and cards?

halcyon latch
#

He's pretty good in veggie battle.

#

Level 3 evil flame takes care of whole bunches of cabbages, and he can spit on people easier too and beat them!

#

I even got mvp using him!

#

Now if only if he was this good in standard battle...

sonic matrix
worn drift
# slender mango oh yeah what's his skill priority and cards?

Most Dabura's would agree that Skill priority for him goes S2 -> S3 -> S1

As for card combos there's a few variations that people use

Build Up, Solid Barrier, Backstab.

Build Up, Solid Barrier, Pursuer.

Build Up, Giant Slayer, Defense Step.

Build Up, Solid Barrier, Defense step

#

Any of these should do you well, I'd also recommend you start using Dabura with the new helper this season, Elder Kai

#

As he can reduce skill cooldowns while inside his zone, making it easy to spam skills for whatever needs you may have

#

Be it killing a petrified enemy, spamming Bursts on an enemy G.O.D, or just to deal significant damage on a boss by yourself

DRAGONBALL
GEKISHIN
SQU4DRA
DABURA EDITION
Season 4.

⚠️Caution⚠️
What follows is solely Kobayashi's opinion. I will write based on my past experiences, so I welcome any disagreements.

  1. Dabura's Role
    Dabura is mediocre in every way, but even he has things he can do.
  • He can generally counter tanks.

  • His petrification ability can stop opponents trying to break him with their bodies.

  • He's effective against those unfamiliar with Dabura, and also against those who know him (?).
    That's a rough overview, but he's not completely useless in the current meta.

#
  1. Dabura's Playstyle
    Overall, his playstyle remains the same in terms of basic damage and movement. The only difference is that his objectives are weak.
    Season 4 saw changes to farm spawns. I've recently been going to the lower lane.
    The reason is that I can pressure tanks while taking the center lane.
    With the environment allowing tech tanks to reach Lv13, you really don't want to be level-out ahead.
    If his first ability hits at the base, it deals around 991 + 441 damage in the early game.
    You can secure the last hit when the enemy has one bar of health remaining. Remember that stepping up makes the first ability activate much faster.
    In the mid and late game, focus on tower defense while observing the board (number and position of enemies).
    You don't need to touch the objectives, but you can still punish the enemy, so fight them.
    If an immediate rush sniper comes, just give up.
#
  1. Skill Upgrades
    I usually take skills in the order of 1, 3, 2, 4, 3, 2, 3, 2, 4, 4, 1, 1. When Super Star comes up, take skill 3. It's strong. (I'm certain.)
    Even if skill 2 cooldown reduction comes up, prioritize skill 3. The ability to finish off kills with burn is very strong. (I'm certain.)

  2. About Kami-Awakening
    I often change it depending on the situation, so it's too much trouble to write it all here. I'll add more little by little.
    Personally, my favorites are Escape, Immediate Rush, and Defense Step. Escape improves survival rate, Immediate Rush allows for finishing off with skill 1 and skill 3, and Defense Step is undeniably good.
    For Dabura users who are struggling, <Build, Giant Kill, Defense Step> is a good choice.

#
  1. Summary
    Dabura has become a joke character because I kept using him despite constantly saying he was weak, but he's actually quite strong, as he can counter Defense Step and has received some subtle buffs. While it depends on the user, his petrification is powerful.
    I intend to continue using Dabura as long as he doesn't get nerfed. For now, I want to beat up those who look down on him with Dabura. Everyone should use Dabura!

I can never seem to get picks w iy

#

It

slender mango
#

and sometimes early game when you really need it to secure a kill

#

it's moreso there so you're threatening petrification on multiple people for me atm

#

so you can dismantle the enemy team one by one

slender mango
#

I honestly forget this character actually does damage sometimes

#

cause my eyes are glued to the petrification gauge so much

#

that might be part of why the ult feels good

#

because I don't use it for damage I use it for petrification (outside of low hp enemies)

what's the best way to grab bosses with dabura

#

is it really just dropping elder kai and attempting to speed blitz them with skill spam

#

cause ult feels too weak compared to like, everyone else

clear fulcrum
# slender mango cause ult feels too weak compared to like, everyone else

you really shouldn't be grabbing bosses as dabura, that's not what he's for, you can help with bosses and pick off any secures but if you're the sole person trying to grab boss, pack it up since y'all are most likely cooked

if you have to grab boss, your best bet is spamming moves with kai or doing something like spear, flame, s1, spear and then ult or just begin using m1, you're not going to be good at securing but you'll still be doing great damage and maybe, just maybe, you'll be lucky and the enemy team won't notice you're melting jaco

the only boss that i'd say avoid trying to grab solo is ribrianne unless she's already in her transformed state

#

if you're tryna steal the boss thats already low, i recommend either ult or flame

slender mango
#

so should I mainly try to keep people away from the boss instead
