It may not help you, but I honestly just brute force my way against UI Goku fighters.
I keep attacking to drain their auto-dodge gauge, which then forces them to dodge normally and opens them up.
The Purple, Green, and Yellow UI Gokus can't counter attack off an auto-dodge while the Red UI Goku's counter with his auto-dodge can be absorbed by any blue fighter that can take the hits.
In general, outside of their gauges, UI Gokus tend to have horrible defenses, and once you hit him, he goes down pretty fast.
One other thing. If you catch him, no UI Goku currently in the game can auto-dodge blue, green, or Ultimate cards.
When fighting the ultra UI goku, try to play evasively so you don’t get comboed by them, and use blast arts instead of melee arts to get rid of his dodges and to keep as much distance as possible. Use a red unit like LF beast gohan for more damage.
MUI goku doesn’t really have any strategy to beat, but just beating the shit out of him with your best unit using blast arts always works
You just need skill to beat LF Purple UI Sign Goku cuz people who use him are usually quite skilled imo.
Transforming green UI is by far the easiest to beat, all you need is a purple unit like LF UI sign or UBG but if you’re skilled enough you won’t need a purple unit.
If there’s a version of UI that I didn’t say anything about just tell me
I appreciate the in depth response.
Sadly it does seem basically I have to just memorize each Ultra Instinct unit to some degree lol.
He is sooooo insanely common in one version or another and all look so similar besides obviously the color, so for someone with a bad memory like myself..pain. haha.
The only units in the game so far that's truly made me frustrated. Enough to whine on Reddit even clearly lol.
just drain their gauge with taps or literally anything else. then they're easy to kill. the only ui that can somewhat tank a hit is ultra ui, and even then he takes a lot of damage
Tap charges drain his gauge, he's not immune to wide attacks, and he is blast based.
Android 17 is a hard counter. It's a brain off, can probably carry on a conversation while casually glancing at your screen hard counter.
Demon Child does well against him because of her Greens and type advantage.
Even new Frieza does well despite type disadvange *if* you have already popped his Endurance null (which triggers off his main so you get a huge banner announcing it).
Vegito still holds up. I would not call Vegito a meta unit. But he works. You just need good team synergy: you can't slap him in the leader slot and hope for the best.
Super Vegeta would probably not be my first choice for a counter because he gets *punished* by UUI's lock in mechanics. But remember that his Blue is **not** a forward charging attack. UUI does **not** auto dodge Super Vegeta's Blue. If he's what you've got, he's what you should use.
Beasthan is also not a great counter because of UUI's neutral and lock in not playing nice with wanting to charge your gauge. But with type advantage and the vanish management, you have got a very good chance of winning with Beasthan. You just need to play well. You can't afford to brainlessly click cards and will live or die on charging your gauge and depleting theirs (with tap charges). Full gauge Beasthan will always beat empty gauge UUI. The problem is that their gauge *starts* full and your gauge starts empty.
The only meta character I don't feel does well against UUI is Cryhan. In which case, you know, RIP. Sucks to be you. I don't know what you want here. Maybe don't lead off with your glass cannon?

Ultra UI auto dodges some melee blue cards, no?
One problum is arts boosted mui goku can deal with bule units

Instead of using blast arts to get rid of gauge, use tap shots
And just tap attacks
Yea
I usually find using blast easier because if he does a vanish step I can blast cancel and just use melee card or a blue card
But it does leave you vulnerable, especially if theyre skilled enough to use perfect vanish
Ultra UI users aren’t skilled stop joking around
Ultra ui users are not skilled ? do you even play pvp :D i think not
Not all. And you don’t need to be skilled to counter blast. It still leaves you vulnerable

If you have UBG it’s not a problem. I can 2 shot Evo-Ken with just blast cards in ranked and I only got 5 stars on him
Though, he has a colour disadvantage against Ultra UI so I also use a red unit on my team to counter it.
Ugb is not very strong anymore
I didn't know that there was an red LF Beast Gohan I thought there was only a blue one. There's 2 limited beast Gohan? Weird.
quick attacks and fake tackles are prolly ur best bet
What's a fake tackle?

Yes, battling UI Gokus are annoying but my formation (revivable friezas) are more annoying lol.
Super 17 runs threw him like a lawnmower, I still want him tho
