Goku and Vegeta have always been toe-to-toe in the entire series of ‘Dragon Ball‘. If one person achieves a certain form, the other is not behind and achieves it after a short amount of time. As this fact proves, most of their transformations have been the same or at the very least similar.
One exception to this case is their recent transformations, Ultra Instinct for Goku and Ultra Ego for Vegeta. Whilst the names of these forms are very similar, there are differences among the forms. Read to find out what they are.

What Are These Forms?
Ultra Instinct is a form that Goku achieved for the first time during the tournament of power. He achieved it against Jiren and he achieved the mastered version in the same fight as well. Ultra Instinct is the ability to act without thinking. It hones the user’s skills to the extent that their defense becomes impenetrable.
Ultra Ego is a form that Vegeta achieved for the first time during his fight with Granolah. Vegeta was taught the principle and working of this by Beerus, the god of destruction for universe 7. Ultra Ego is a form that increases the overall stats of the user.
How Is Ultra Instinct Different From Ultra Ego?
In a way, Ultra Ego is the antithesis of Ultra Instinct. A god of destruction teaches Ultra Ego and an angel teaches the Ultra Instinct. The forms hold some resemblance to the teachers. The first difference must have been noticed by the above-mentioned description of both abilities. Ultra Instinct increases the user’s defense whilst Ultra Ego focuses on the offensive ability.
Ultra Ego is used at optimum power when the user is lost in the thrill and lust of the battle. He needs to be in the mind of destruction and chaos to use this power properly. In Ultra Instinct, the user fights with a certain finesse.
Ultra Ego is more of a chaotic way of fighting with the user letting his emotions take the reign. Ultra Instinct is the opposite as the user needs to get rid of all unnecessary emotions to achieve it. These are the major differences between Ultra Ego and Ultra Instinct.
