Which 8th Anniversary Part 2 Banner Should YOU Summon On? (Dragon Ball LEGENDS)

Storyline (what’s driving the update)

• The video focuses on Dragon Ball LEGENDS’ 8th Anniversary “Part 2” content.
• The main spotlight is on new banner characters tied to:
  • Future Gohan & Trunks (tag)
  • Shallot (new summonable)
• It also notes that Part 3 is expected in mid-July, and that banner choices may continue across multiple parts.

Gameplay / Banner mechanics discussed

What to summon / banner choice

• The discussion compares two Part 2 banners:
  • Tag: Future Gohan & Trunks
  • Summonable: Shallot
• The speaker acknowledges controversy around Shallot, but emphasizes that both banners are still strong and viewers should choose based on overall value.

Key banner value details (Part 1 pity carry-forward)

• The Part 1 banner pity system still applies.
• Up to 450: if you don’t pull the featured units by then, you get a free copy.
• Pulling before 450 resets the pity progress.

Z Power / rates mentioned

• Both characters have 2000 Z Power.
• Legend Rate Up occurs at step two.

Banner length / timing strategy

• The banners are leaving on August 2nd.
• Viewers are encouraged to wait and see what Part 3 brings, then summon later if Part 3 isn’t appealing.
• It’s implied that both Part 1 and Part 2 remain relevant even while Part 3 is being previewed.

Strategy & key tips (who should summon)

“If you only care about value” recommendation

• If you don’t strongly care about either specific character and want the best bang-for-your-CC, the speaker favors:
  • Future Gohan & Trunks banner
• Reasoning: it offers stronger overall banner value and support utility.

Why the Future Gohan & Trunks banner is positioned as higher value

• Future Gohan & Trunks banner includes Sparking Pan as a supporter.
• The speaker believes Pan will be more useful than Paragus from Part 1.
• The speaker also suggests that Shallot’s banner support may “work against hybrid units,” since the new supporter is described as countering hybrids.

Possible upside for Shallot banner (wait-and-see)

• The speaker argues Shallot’s banner could still be better depending on:
  • How strong the featured LF units are on that banner
• They speculate the developers could balance banner strength:
  • Shallot is described as “hype,” but also “hated/controversial,”
  • So the other banner might receive stronger features to offset expectations.

Team-building highlights by tag (where these units fit)

Vegeta Clan (where Future Gohan & Trunks players can build)

• The speaker says Vegeta Clan has some overlap, but limited true summon options.
• Suggested approach:
  • Pair with Revival Napa for revive/second-life synergy.
• One framed core:
  • (Future Gohan & Trunks) + Revival Napa + God Vegeta
• The trio is described as solid, specifically due to second-life compatibility.

Sun Family (mostly for seasonal/limited relevance)

• Mostly strike-oriented.
• The roster is described as weaker currently (with GT units falling on the lower end after Part 1).
• The speaker is cautious about long-term meta impact.
• There’s an expectation of an 8-tier boost, which could temporarily improve options.
  • However, the speaker stresses that boost seasons aren’t a strong reason to summon—long-term viability matters more.

Future

• Future is described as already strong, and these units are expected to be a major additional buff.
• Suggested core partners include:
  • Legend Rosé / Yellow Rosé
  • Perfect Cell (especially if Zenkai’d)
• Color coverage expectations:
  • Synergy across blue / yellow / purple / red
  • Dual-color access is highlighted as valuable.
• The speaker links pairing logic to durability/second-life needs:
  • These new units are framed as good partners for Trunks/Gohan because they are said to lack second-lives, matching team requirements.

Hybrids

• If you’re a Hybrids main, the speaker says you “have to summon”.
• Reason: Hybrids don’t receive frequent new buffs, so this release is important.
• They also claim hybrids are often “toxic” in PvP, implying strong meta presence even if players dislike it.

Shallot (tags and best-fit team core)

• Shallot is described as having multiple tags, especially:
  • Fusion Warrior (main focus)
• Gameplay profile:
  • Range-based
• Gogeta synergy:
  • The speaker positions Gogeta Blue as the “long-awaited partner.”
• Main trio idea:
  • Gogeta Blue + Shallot + Super Vegito
  • They note “strike/blast wonkiness,” but claim it still works in practice.
• If you don’t have LF Super Vegito:
  • Shallot is framed as a strong alternative third option.
• The speaker also notes that Fusion Warriors otherwise don’t have much, so Shallot helps fill the role.

God Ki

• The video claims God Ki has overlap.
• With Shallot/Gogeta connections, it’s described as an easy fit.
• Concept:
  • If you have one of the Gogeta/God Ki cores, adding Shallot should work well.

Game Original (not a reason to summon)

• Game Original is presented as a secondary / fun gimmick team, not a primary competitive goal.
• Mentioned units and notes:
  • Goku & Bardock Zenkai: potentially useful mainly as a second-life option
  • Super Saiyan God Giblet: free-to-play (possibly good, but not promised to be “crazy”)
  • Zahha: gets unique equipment; described as support-type (implied ally health restoration)
• Strong caution:
  • Don’t summon only for Game Original.
  • Use your CC elsewhere, since stronger options and equipment/Zenkai support exist on other tags.
