Reddit wrote: I'm getting SSJ3 Gotenks flashbacks here ... Seriously though, there is no f*cking way Bamco made this guy, looked at him and SSJR Goku Black and said 'Yeah, those two are even' or 'Yupp, that's reasonable' I personally think they intentionally broke him (his passive is stronger than that of literally every Gacha-LR for God's Sake!) so that people go for him despite the fact that we have a freely obtainable LR SSB Vegetto coming up soon, just like they broke SSJ3 Gotenks after realizing that people were displeased with him. It's obvious that Bamco doesn't give two sh*ts about game balance despite having all the tools to actually create a 'balanced' meta, so I wouldn't be surprised if they just threw him out there in this broken state in order to cash in on SSB Vegetto before we get the f2p-LR. Just thought I should mention that, hope you all have a nice day :3!

I can't help but wonder if there might be some truth to this. It is kinda of weird we get an LR of Vegito revealed and a week or two later this guy is announced as well.
