Recommended Skill Path

ATK Up > Surround Attack > Rising Sun > Ground Speed Up > Armor Strike

ATK Up is preferred over Ultimate Gauge Upgrade (RND) because Android 18's aggressive playstyle means she very rarely wants for meter, and she'd much rather be making her mixups count as much as they can.
Taking Surround Attack is the preferred option because it also gives Android 18 access to Rising Sun, which is a very strong tool for making grounded confirms more rewarding. Both are also much more useful than Infinity Break, which is too slow to really catch anyone off guard.
Android 18's desire to be pressuring the opponent up close means she doesn't benefit too much from Weight Increase, which slows her movement speed, or from Impact Up, which causes her attacks to knock the opponent further away. This makes Ground Speed Up the preferred choice.
System Skill choice is where preference comes into play. Android 18 arguably benefits from both Armor Strike and Shield Sprint, as both grant some level of protection to her approach tools. Assault Style is more situational due to it not coming into play until 35% life, but it can't hurt if you feel you need an extra comeback factor.
