To be fair, Pikkon probably completely forgot about Goku's IT. Also, it was a tournament match, not a fight to the death. Pikkon would have won either way, imo. =Psupercat wrote:Paikuhan didn't exactly display strategic prowess when he gave in to his desire to use his signature move an already beaten down opponent, who he likely could have taken down with a more practical approach. With that said, he probably is smarter than Freeza when it comes to incorporating the right tactics.
Goku vs Piccolo (equal power, unlimited stamina for both) - we have two fighting geniuses, both equipped with the adept ability to manipulate their opponent's weaknesses through either their unrivaled observation skills, or by leveraging their opportunistic tendencies and exploiting every possible chance for securing victory.
Well, Goku vs Piccolo already happened in Dragon Ball. I'm sure they were fairly even. Goku won. =D
