Dammit, that's the last time I repeat what I hear without doing a search.

According to what I've just learned, AT himself designed him for the anime team, stating that although he's not Namekian, he is indeed a "Piccolo type" character and AT even said that Piccolo's face should be used as reference for his expressions.

So you are correct sir. Non manga, so Non canonical and as such, not usable in DB Super.

Unless someone decides to stuff him into a canon and fire.

I myself don't care. He's a cool character but he's also one I could live without. Gogeta however, needs to happen. F*** Vegeto/Vegerot.

Id be okay with using non canon characters but only if the characters act like its the first time theyve met.

Example: Goku meets Broly (I dont want this just an example)

Bad: Oh no its Broly!

Good: Who is that? His power is amazing!

I don't see how it's any more bullshit than, "let's just bring Frieza back again". At least Ledgic was only used one time before.

You really think they would bother bringing all these characters in the tournament if they weren't going to do anything?
Given DBS poor writing, I'm going to go with... yes. Lol

Ledgic can't be sufficiently explained in light of current lore. He's stronger than Majin Buu and he's just some alien bodyguard on some random planet.

"His power is kinda high" would be a more appropriate reaction.
