To easily defeat an opponent, go to "Edit Skills" and give your character a Viral Heart Disease Capsule and a Vaccine Capsule. The Vaccine Capsule negates the effects of the Viral Heart Disease Capsule on your player, and only your opponent will get their life drained. Fight through the story mode and/or the tournament mode until you can get the Senzu Bean, Viral Heart Disease, Vaccine, and Kamehameha skills. Equip all four skills on Goku, Gohan, or Krillin. When you now fight in a duel, allow your opponent to knock your health down to zero. By this time, the Viral Heart Disease should have depleted his health down to half of the last bar. The Senzu Bean will replenish all of your health and energy. Finish off your opponent with a four-punch combo and a Kamehameha.
Go into the options menu and set "Difficulty" to "Very Easy", "Com" to "Very Weak", equip the Vaccine, Viral Heart Disease, and a Senzu Bean, Set the time limit to 30 seconds.. When the match starts, dodge for the first fifteen seconds. The last fifteen seconds should deplete your opponent's health. When the clock reaches zero, if you have not been knocked out of the ring, you will be declared the winner.

There are 3 easy ways to win in World Tournaments:

1) Go to "Edit Skills" and then "Change Caps". Find your favourite player and go to his/her skills. Put the skills "Viral Heart Disease" and then "Vaccine" and 5 other strong skills in the custom tray. Then go to every other character and put only "Viral Heart Disease" in their custom trays. Then go and play a World Tournament. Choose your favourite player. Press X on him/her and then press up or down to get your player as CUSTOM instead of NORMAL. While fighting in the tournament, you will notice that your opponent's health is running out even when you're not attacking him/her. This way, keep running away from your opponent till his/her health stops running out. Go quickly and beat your opponent while you have the chance.

2) There is also an easier way. Go to "Edit Skills" and then "Change Caps" to your favourite player. Put the skill "Senzu Bean" after "Viral Heart Disease" and "Vaccine" and 4 other strong skills in the custom tray. Then go to every other character and put only "Viral Heart Disease" in their custom trays. Now you will have 6 bars of health while fighting in tournaments. And your opponent's health will still run out.

3) There is also a more easier way than that. Collect the skill "Frieza's Space Ship" from Mr. Popo's skill shop. Then go and collect all 7 Dragon Balls and get BREAKTHROUGH for Frieza. Then go to "Edit Skills" and then "Change Caps" to Frieza. Put the skill BREAKTHROUGH (Frieza) in his custom tray. Then go to every other character and put only "Viral Heart Disease" in their custom trays. Now you will have 9 bars of health while fighting in tournaments. And your opponent's health will still run out.

Note: Always choose your player as CUSTOM in tournaments. Try not to get your player rang-out or these 3 ways won't help you win. | Submitted by RohanNadkarni
