4. Showboat

Time to show off your moves. Become the beautiful tornado of death you've always wanted to be.

Showboat is a fun, unique play style in UFC 4. If you’ve ever dreamed of spinning kicking someone across the cage, this could be the one for you. This build revolves around movement, and setting up dynamic, fight-ending strikes with head movement. To use this build, select the Showboat archetype and focus your playstyle on long-range attacks, preferably using a taller body type character to do so.

Spinning kicks are much deadlier
Head movement advantages allow for powerful counters
Straight punches are laser accurate

3. Vanguard

Being defensive is a good thing when everyone online seems to be a maniac throwing wild overhands.

Vanguard is a very defensively focused build, perfect for players who like to keep their good looks safe. Fast movement allows you to time your shots effectively, while increased recovery and submission defence let you stay in the fight for longer. To use this build, select the Vanguard archetype and focus on defense, timing and fighting off the backfoot.

2. Razor

Knees, elbows, clinchwork all day. Time to slice up the competition.

Razor is a balanced playstyle that lets you deal massive damage at your own pace. An emphasis on leg kicks here lets you deal more damage when checking, while your own attacks cost much less stamina in the early rounds. Effective! To use this build, select the Razor archetype and focus on getting inside your opponent’s range, maybe using a short, stocky body type to do so.

Strong leg kick defense
Lots of damage on the inside
Less stamina drain

1. Powerhouse

What's better than boxing up the opposition and knocking them out quick? Nothing, that's what.

Most matches will break down into brawls, and you’ll want to be the one that's hitting harder when that happens. Powerhouse is perfect for this, boosting your boxing skills with both speed and power, as well as benefits for movement. To use this build, select the Powerhouse archetype and focus on a striking-heavy playstyle, either controlling the range with straight punches or getting inside and landing powerful hooks.
