Ultra Ego is the most powerful transformation Vegeta has ever undergone. As the Divine Technique is favored by the Gods of Destruction, it puts Vegeta in a special state that is quite similar to what Goku does when he goes Ultra Instinct, but the effect this form has is the opposite. Although this is the state that the Gods of Destruction constantly remain in due to their nature as destroyers, Vegeta needs a new transformation to maintain this destructive power.
Ultra Ego's main ability is the opposite of Ultra Instinct, where the latter requires the user to be incredibly calm so that the body reacts instinctively to attacks so that the user doesn't waste time thinking about dodging. However, Ultra Ego makes the user stronger by dealing more damage, meaning their next attack will be much more powerful than the previous one.
Damage is nothing but fuel for me. Do you know what it means? I'm only getting stronger!
As the name suggests, Vegeta gets complacent about his head-on attacks and deals damage, so his next attack will be even stronger than before. Where Ultra Instinct is the perfect defense, Ultra Ego serves as an excellent offense. However, this is where the form's biggest flaw lies, as the user of this transformation can end up taking more damage than it could possibly defeat.
Currently, Ultra Ego is just as strong offensively, if not stronger than Ultra Instinct, but since Vegeta has only used this form once without training, it is very unrefined, similar to Ultra Instinct Omen . One way to make Ultra Ego as powerful as Ultra Instinct is if through training Vegeta's body becomes extremely durable, similar to what Goku's body was in his Super Instinct form. That way, the damage he takes doesn't hurt him, while he still benefits from the transformation, making his next attacks stronger.
It is shown that although the main power of this transformation is the ability to grow stronger with every bit of damage, the amount of damage he takes is still too much for him. This can lead to Vegeta blacking out mid-fight, as seen against Granolah and Gas. However, if his durability increases to the point where regular attacks don't damage him, Ultra Ego's potential goes through the roof!
Flaws in terms of design
Ultra Ego is a form that has a bit of a divisive design. While most fans of the series like Vegeta's look with his spikier hair, devastating aura, and overall ferocious appearance, there are a number of naysayers who feel that the look of this transformation leaves a lot to be desired. Some fans of the series feel that Vegeta's prolonged foray into the realm of divine techniques in the form of the God of Destruction should have felt more regal.
For one thing, many feel that this form's missing eyebrows just make Vegeta look weird. Although this was probably a deliberate choice, as it depicts him as a very powerful and dangerous figure with the ability to destroy entire planets on a whim, as all gods of destruction are, some felt that he was too It looks like an animal. Additionally, many feel that the form would have looked much better if Vegeta had kept his black hair instead of purple.
Strange facial expression…?! It's called Ultra Ego, you idiot!
Many fan art and theories point to Vegeta's tendency to grow hair like Super Saiyan 3 as a return to a form the prince never achieved. If there really is a mastered Ultra Ego, the appearance of the transformation could be significantly different from what fans have seen before, although what they have now is still an amazing form that puts Vegeta in the conversation of the strongest. returns Dragon ball Characters!
