It won't be like this, it will probably be a format where every team selects so many fighters or each match. The team will probably be change throughout.

It'll probably be around 3 or more, the tag team is probably an excuse to get through all twelve universe fights quicker.
I wouldn't mind that. Team battle are good change of pace.

That makes a lot of sense. It will probably be like that.

Don't worry, he probably forgot it in the bathroom.

Crazy thought though. What if the preliminary matches, or even worse the 10 fighters are Toei originals to pad the arc ? What if the manga version only has Goku and Vegeta as fighters ? The fanbase would go wild.

I made a bet with Alee9977 that Vegeta won't be beaten quickly by an opponent. If I lose, I switch my avatar to Vegeta getting beat by hit. If I win, he switches it to Vegeta holding Black by his hair. This will last a month.

that seems highly unlikely,but it would be hilarious on how the fandom will react and that just prove that toriyama don't give a damn about cast usage
    but what make you think that the preliminary match or the 10 fighters are Toei edition and not toriyama

    Confirms that the dudes in the red and black spandex are super heroes, nice. Also I think it says Lavenda changes his abilities based on the enemy's technique, so I guess that is actually Beragmo's ability since they seem to have gotten them backwards.
    Lavenda's description even says his name is Bergamo... lol.

    Though looking at the link source of the pic, Toei seems to go with "Jerez". (spanish pronunciation)

    The fat bearded guy is called Toppo (トッポ) and is the leader of the hero team called "Pride Troopers" (プライド・トルーパーズ).

    Toei's URLs are never good to base things on, they constantly use misspellings and bad translations.

    Didn't people say the same thing during the Champa Saga when Frost, Cabba, and even Champa seemed like good counterparts.

    Goku barely took a backseat in the Buu saga, at best he took a leisurely stroll round back while everyone else cried for him to come back.

    This is getting quite interesting. I'm liking Helles and the Pride Troopers. Curious, so does that mean Bergamo and Lavenda's bios were mixed up?

    Yes, Lavenda's Bio even says his name is Bergamo.
    Lavenda has poison powers, Bergamo can copy abilites.
