Jumping into Dragon Ball Gekishin Squadra for the first time can feel intense. Between heroes, bosses, divine cards, and different game modes, there’s a lot happening on screen.
But don’t stress — this guide will give you ten key tips every beginner should know to level up faster, avoid common mistakes, and actually start winning matches.
Check out our Guide for Beginner to get an in depth guide on how to play, and Dragon Ball Gekishin Squadra Codes for new players!
1. Learn the Game Modes First
There are three main modes you’ll spend most of your time in:
- Standard Battle (4v4): Push lanes, defeat Gods of Destruction, capture the Dragon Ball to win.
- Land Grab: Control three zones, earn 500 points before the enemy.
- Finder’s Keepers: One side guards while the other searches for hidden chests.
Matches usually last 10–20 minutes, so stay focused — comebacks are always possible.
2. Try Every Hero Role
Heroes fall into three archetypes:
- Damage (Red): Heavy hitters but fragile.
- Tanks (Green): Soak damage and initiate fights.
- Technicals (Blue): Healers, buffers, and disruptors.
Don’t just pick your favorite Dragon Ball character. Experiment in practice mode so you understand how each role works.
3. Farm Efficiently for Levels
Leveling is everything. Defeat minions (like Cell Juniors), bosses, or enemy heroes to gain XP. Higher levels unlock new skills, improve damage, and even allow transformations like Super Saiyan Goku or Perfect Cell.
4. Prioritize Objectives Over Kills
It’s tempting to chase enemies, but objectives win games. Push towers, secure bosses like Nappa or Android 16, and coordinate with your team to take map control.
5. Use Divine Draw and Combo Cards
These act as temporary buffs you can set to auto at first. As you learn, switch to manual for more control. Picking the right card at the right time can swing a fight in your favor.
6. Watch the Mini Map
Map awareness separates beginners from smart players. Always check:
- Enemy movements
- Boss spawn timers
- Lane pushes
- Team pings
Use your pings too — communication wins games.
7. Build Balanced Teams
A squad full of damage dealers usually gets wiped fast. Aim for a mix: damage + tank + technical. This way you’ll have damage, defense, and healing all covered.
8. Rotate Lanes to Support Teammates
Don’t get stuck farming one lane. If your top lane is struggling, rotate up and help. Timely rotations can break enemy momentum and secure objectives.
9. Manage Your Ultimates Wisely
Don’t waste ultimates on 1v1 fights unless necessary. Save them for big team battles, boss objectives, or clutch defense moments.
10. Avoid Common Beginner Mistakes
- Ignoring the mini map
- Chasing kills instead of securing objectives
- Overcommitting ultimates
- Fighting outnumbered
- Only picking favorite characters without learning other roles
Stay patient, keep grinding, and don’t quit after early losses. The game rewards consistency and teamwork.
Dragon Ball Gekishin Squadra is fast-paced, but once you learn the basics — farming, objectives, roles, and divine mechanics — you’ll find yourself winning more often. Focus on improving a little each match, and soon you’ll be carrying your team.
