Hi there! If you're new to this wiki (or fandom) and plan on making an account, please check out our Rules page, for information on new accounts and some rules to follow.
Control allows the user to create a large circular area where they can use its moves, such as tossing all sorts of objects like large structures and boats around, or moving inside the area at high speeds. However, outside of the said area, the Control fruit is effectively useless as the player can't use any of its moves.
Outside of PVP, Control is considered a very bad fruit for all other activities, like Sea Beast hunts, as none of its moves can damage them. It requires a lot of mastery which makes it hard to unlock all the moves, especially in the First Sea and early Second Sea.
Control's abilities are confined within the Area it establishes, which remains active for approximately 55 seconds. While inside the Area, the moves of the Koko sword are greatly buffed.
Control Area
1 Mastery

The user creates an Area. Holding Z will make the Area bigger. When used with the Koko sword, both the Z and X moves of the sword will be massively buffed. This also turns the icon of the fruit on the bottom green until the area disappears.

If it hits an NPC or a player, a cutscene will trigger where the user begins to launch green slashes all over the Area/Room, damaging everyone inside of it. When the slashing ends, the user goes back to their physical form and does the last slash, dealing the most damage on a specific player/NPC who gets hit by it.

The following results are tested on NPCs. The variables that were used to test include: 600 mastery, 2550 points on Fruit Stats and no accessories.
Very versatile, as this fruit is good for every stat build such as fruit mains, sword mains, and even gun mains. This is due to its great stuns, mobility, and high combo potential.
Moves deal decent to great damage.
Good value in trading.
Fun to use.
[Z] Control Area
No end-lag.
Increases Koko's range (Z move's range is increased slightly and the X move range is based on the range of the room.)
[X] Levitate
No end-lag.
The range depends on how large the room is, giving it an absolutely enormous range.
It can be useful for grinding as the move's cooldown is very low.
Good damage, stun and AoE.
The lowest X move cooldown in the entire game.
[C] Echo Knife
Low end-lag. (About 1 second if missed)
High stun.
High damage.
Has a massive vertical hitbox.
While attacking the target, the user gains I-frames immunity to all damage up to the last slash.
This move usually causes temporary "lag" to the target, which can lead into a good combo.
Drains a lot of instinct dodges (3-5) if the opponent holds it through the entirety of the move.
[V] Gamma Rush
Low end-lag if missed.
The range depends on how large the room is.
Insane damage.
High stun.
Great move for grinding and crowd control.
Pretty good for teamers because of its great stun and hitbox.
Gives the user the I-frames immunity to all damage. (Except water and Lava damage)
[F] Teleport
Can be used to initiate surprise attacks and combos as the user can teleport behind their targets.
Very short cooldown.
Cons
General
Extremely high mastery requirements. (Control's mastery is tied with Dragon's and Spirit's as the highest Blox Fruit mastery)
Attacks can only be used inside of the Area, causing this fruit to be easily avoided by simply exiting the area.
The user is vulnerable while putting up an Area.
Requires some aim and precision.
Possibly the worst fruit for Sea Beast hunting, as none of the moves can hit Sea Beasts except for Levitate, which is nearly impossible to use at sea.
[Z] Control Area
The user is vulnerable while putting up an Area.
The area only lasts less than 1 minute, making it a bit annoying for the user who has to activate it continuously during long battles.
Due to the Area's size and noise, it's hard to successfully pull off surprise attacks.
[X] Levitate
High knockback.
Despite its very long range, this move's flying objects are relatively slow.
[C] Echo Knife
Single target.
Can leave the user vulnerable after the move is completed if they are fighting more than one person.
[V] Gamma Rush
Using while in the air will not freeze the user in place like most moves, with it instead making the user's physical avatar fall down. Due to this, they can easily fall into the ocean or lava and die while trying to use Gamma Rush while over a body of water/lava.
Hard to hit.
[F] Teleport
Teleport can only be used on something solid, making the user unable to teleport into the air.
Tips & Tricks
It is not recommended to get this fruit at a low level, as it has very high mastery requirements.
The Gamma Rush move has a high mastery requirement (350), so it is recommended to use Cyborg (race) (V4) when grinding mastery for it.
Using Control requires a lot of prediction. If the user predicts that an enemy is going to get close and rush them, a quick Gamma Rush can be used, and it'll most likely hit the enemy easily.
Gamma Rush can be used at the edge of an Area, and the Area will move in order to be centered on the hit enemy.
Levitate has a really low cooldown. This can be combined with gear such as the Zebra Cap / Choppa, and the Ghoul (race)'s V3 ability to lower the cooldown even further, effectively making the user able to spam it.
The heavy knockback from Levitate can be nullified with a stunning move, such as Soul Cane's Soul Beam, Shisui's True Quiet Rush, or even Control’s Echo Knife.
Trivia
General
Control is seen by the community as a fun, though skilled, fruit to use.
Control is the only fruit that has 2 icons. The other icon can be shown in the inventory when the Control Area move is activated, instead of its usual blue, it will be green.
Control and Buddha are the only fruits that buffs weapons.
[Z] Control Area
This is seen as a trolling fruit, because of its ability to levitate Boats though it is unable to levitate a Ship Raid's boats.
This is one of the fruits that needs to use this move before being able to use the other moves, others being Buddha, Falcon and Diamond.
If the user holds down to make an Area while in the air, they can stay mid-air for a short while.
This move used to last for 35 seconds.
Despite being rocks, the rocks that spawn when going to any Sea Danger Level (except During Rough Sea), aren't usable.
[X] Levitate
Holding it below a boss would cause the boss to be stuck on the boulder that is held until it is being released.
This move when combined with the Choppa accessory has the shortest skill cooldown out of all of the other moves.
[V] Gamma Rush
This move used to shrink the Control Area to its minimum size and the area disappears immediately after the move finished, if the V move does not hit anyone, the Control Area still disappears immediately after that.
If the user holds for 10~13 seconds, they can move while holding the move and use it outside their control area.
This move has very high mastery requirement for a fruit alongside Dragon and Spirit, which is 350.
There is a bug where the user can increase the damage slightly by holding a weapon with a higher mastery than the Control. This is not necessary if the Control's mastery has reached 600.
