I am working my way through the UNIST tutorials right now. According to the UNIST community matchmaking is thriving on PS4 esp due to the EVO 2019 excitement.
BBTAG has a plethora of defense options like push block, combo breakers, and I think the blockstun is way less shat than DBFZ. I feel like your assists actually help in that game. In DBFZ, if you're in a corner with no spark then you gotta pray to Kami to gtfo the corner if you're up against a really, really good player. You got no guaranteed resources to use like Push Block (I'll discuss Deflect later below)
But I admit I'm kinda disgruntled with the game. But DBFZ has given me hundreds of hours of entertainment. When you're on offense and it's your turn and you have the edge on the opponent, you're gonna feel sooooo good. That game caters to offense bigtime. I mean defending in most games suck anyways but it sucks extra in DBFZ due to lack of reliable tools. Deflect is nice but only if you know their "string" and the small gap when to use it. But even then deflect sucks too me because the opponent's move can put them right back in your face because Deflect only gives you a small gap to take your turn. After you land a Deflect you must commit to an offensive action
All advice from a Demon/SupremeKai rank. The other DBFZ players on Era are higher rank than me so they can give more accurate advice. FSLink is our local SSJ God or whatever. He has much more deeper matchup knowledge so Deflect is much more reliable for him. But I'm pretty 100% sure I know what I'm talking bout in regards to defensive assist in dbfz
tl;dr - I wish DBFZ had Push Block that cost 1 bar & Superdash had a delay of an extra frame or so. But like the other guy says, SD is probably way less powerful at locals. Been meaning to go to a local for DBFZ someday
