##Stats

As well as [Yamcha](/teq) and [Chiaotzu](/agl), it seems like Bandai wants to recreate exactly the essence of those 3 characters by giving them shitty stats.

##Leader Skill

[Krillin](/str) can be more useful than [Yamcha](/teq) though. Although HP restricted, he has the +2ki rainbow leader, which makes him a bit more valuable

##Passive Skill

Krillin is a beast at being hit. He just can't contain himself, he needs to feel someone's punch/kick/energy way on him. However, through years of blocking, he has adquired his magnificient passive: he will get just the 50% of the incoming damage when guarding. So, we can say that when he sees it coming, at least he's prepared to get it.

##Link Skills

Yeah, so, hmm... He has... Oh, wait! No, just misread...

Well, all I can say about him is that his links really kill him. If at least he had some good links we could spare him. But seriously, he isn't even trying!

##Summary

**Pros:**

* Can tank a lot of damage from [PHY](/phy) enemies, almost like [Golden Freeza](/agl)

* An alright rainbow leader skill if you have no +2 Ki leaders

* Even though his SA is just Extreme, he lowers enemy DEF (can't say by how much, just like TEQ Yamcha's effect)

* An OK 100% Ki threshold of 4

* "Free" through Baba

* Low team cost (con in tourney)

* HIS SUPER ATTACK IS CHAIN KIENZAN OH YEAH

**Cons:**

* Though he can tank, he won't be putting out as much damage as you may hope

* Just like [TEQ Yamcha](/teq), Krillin's links are unfortunately pretty bad

* Bad stats

* Very low 12 Ki Multiplier of 125%

##Final Verdict

###[A+](/agl)
