It seems you don't know what a strawman argument is. A straw man argument is when you change your opponents argument so it is easier to beat. And I don't mean to insult you but it gets annoying when you clearly aren't reading my comment correctly and reply the same thing twice even though I already debunked it.
I understand fully what a strawman argument is. And I haven't actually had a straw man argument, I simply pointed out that Coola referring to Freeza in his first form makes no sense in anyway imaginable. As they were both far greater in strength than that form. You haven't debunked Coola's statement of Goku being as strong as Freeza in his base form.
dragon boss z wrote: And I don't, don't know why him referring to Frieza's first form doesn't make sense, since both Goku and Cooler are above first form Frieza, it doesn't matter how much stronger they are. All he said was "I see how you could beat Frieza". And what that means is Goku's power is enough to where it makes sense he won. And it would make sense for someone to beat Frieza before he transforms. It doesn't meant he is only a little stronger. If Cooler said that Goku's power was enough to just barely win, then you would be right.
It makes no sense as both Coola and Goku are literal leagues above first form Freeza. And Coola was stronger than First form Freeza, but still weaker than finial form Freeza. And from the context of the narrative it is most likely that he's referring to Freeza in his finial form as he specified that Freeza always had an edge on him. Hell Coola is even aware of the fact that Goku is a saiyan. You know the race that relishes the chance of a challenging battle? Meaning it makes even more sense for him too be referring to Freeza at his best.

But here's the thing Revenge of Coola is a non canon movie, that bares absolutely no impact to the main canonical series as a whole. In the context of the movie Goku is as strong as finial form Freeza. But in the actual series? No way.

What I'm arguing here is that in the context of a non canon movie is that Goku's base is as strong as Freeza's strongest augmentation form.

Dang that's a tough one because basil at full powered is in the Same tier with Majin Vegeta ,but I think I'm going with basil simply because he has better physical attack and he is very fast, or unless Majin Vegeta blow himself up so that would end up in a stalemate

Basil before his drug weared off he was able to withstand buu's full power kamehameha and even buu mentioned that he was tough so basil takes this mid-high diff.

Majin Vegeta surprisingly took an energy wave from an enraged Fat Boo, who is much stronger than the Boo Basil fought. Vegeta's durability is nothing to laugh at.

True now that you mentioned it it could go either way it may depend on who can last longer.

    Super perfect Cell wins.

    Frieza wins in his first form imo. It is hard to judge the universe 6 fighter's strength in the anime so I go by the manga, and in that final form Frost seems to be around Cell level, while assault form Frost would be around final form Frieza level. And I have RoF first form Frieza around Cell level, and final form RoF Frieza at around Vegitto tier.
    I'm confused I though assault form frost is stronger than base goku a base goku is on par with final form frieza in rof :think:
    A lot of people think Goku was heavily holding back his power or not using his saiyan beyond god form. First form Frieza one shot ssj Gohan, but ssj Gohan recently fought evenly with ssj Goku. So clearly something is off. And in the manga version Goku never absorbs god ki into his base, so his base form is probably just a bit stronger than it was in the Buu saga. So I think the best person to go off of is Piccolo. At his point Piccolo should be at least around semi perfect Cell, and since Frost was stronger than him by a good amount I would put Frost anywhere from perfect Cell to good Buu.

    I don't think you do. You changed my argument saying that I was saying Cooler and Goku were as strong as first form Frieza or a power level of 600,000. I never said either of those things, but you said I was implying it. Since I never implied those things, you made a straw man argument.
    It makes no sense as both Coola and Goku are literal leagues above first form Freeza. And Coola was stronger than First form Freeza, but still weaker than finial form Freeza.

Meaning it makes even more sense for him too be referring to Freeza at his best.
    Cooler saying Frieza had the edge on him was actually just a dub line.
    And yes, I never said he was definitely talking about first form Frieza, I was just pointing out how we don't know which form he was talking about. He could of meant final form Frieza, but while he was suppressed.
    But here's the thing Revenge of Coola is a non canon movie, that bares absolutely no impact to the main canonical series as a whole. In the context of the movie Goku is as strong as finial form Freeza. But in the actual series? No way.

    What I'm arguing here is that in the context of a non canon movie is that Goku's base is as strong as Freeza's strongest augmentation form.

    I wasn't talking about the line of how base Goku was weaker than Frieza. I know that the Cooler movie doesn't have to fit with that. I was just pointing out how the writters thought it was ok to say that Frieza was the best that ssj Goku could do. But the question is what does that line mean? It means that ssj Goku is stronger than Frieza, but we don't know by how much.
    So when Cooler says he can say how Goku can beat Frieza, all that means is the version of Goku he is fighting is stronger than at least one version of Frieza. With a power level in the millions, base Goku would be strong enough to beat Frieza's first 3 forms with ease. Also maybe he knew Goku was holding back. When Frieza was fighting Goku he guessed that Goku was holding back.

    My whole point of view on the Coola thing is that, when Coola says Goku has the power to beat Freeza, he means that someone with a 3+ million power level would be capable of beating Freeza, who hides his true power away with suppression forms because he can't control it. Then when Goku transforms, he realizes that Goku actually beat Freeza for real at 100%, and even says "I see! This is why my brother was no match for you!". It's like a light bulb goes off in his head, and he goes, "Oh, so that's how he did it! That makes more sense!"

    It's a bit of a stretch, but the other option is that Goku somehow got about 40x stronger in the span of a year, and straight-up outclasses his pre-God counterpart by a lot. Not only does it not make sense, but if the movie characters are on a different scale, it renders power comparisons completely pointless. So I'd prefer to be creative and make a way that the movies and the series can sorta coexist with each other, at least in this facet of the franchise.

    22nd Goku could see Old King Piccolo's movements. He even landed some hits. And the only hit Yamcha could get on Kami was a surprise attack. He wasn't able to dodge or see any of Kami's moves and Kami wasn't even serious.
    Tien stated goku got "far, far stronger" and proeeded to match him blow for blow, before increasing his speed. They were dead even, and inb4 you bring Roshi's statement that they were not equals it was because of Kami's training which taught goku to improve his stamina.
    Tien = weighted goku >> kid goku >= Piccolo daimao in strength
    Tien >> Weighted goku >> Kid goku >= Piccolo daimao in speed

    Can I see the scan you are talking about? And what do you think about the debate going on about King Chappa vs Tao?
    I don't think Chappa is anywhere near Tao pai pai.

    Read chapter 176, it is completely full of weighted goku and Tien going blow for blow and matching each other.
    Page 1 chapter 177 tien says he's gotten stronger since daimao fight.

      Goku can't beat Super perfect cell with only SS1 but he can match or beat perfect cell in a hard fight.

      Freeza was suppressed when he fought goku in RoF, so he wins by powering up.

      Tein barely pushed Goku and Tien knew it. He never said his strength was above Goku's from 3 years ago, just that current Goku has just gotten stronger.
      So from statements we know
      23rd Goku (weighted) is stronger than Goku vs King Piccolo
      23rd Goku (weighted) is the same speed as Goku vs King Piccolo
      Tien is faster than Goku vs King Piccolo

      I mean exchanging blows doesn't really mean much considering Krillin was exchanging blows with Piccolo jr. But I agree Tien would beat King Piccolo in hand 2 hand combat, I just don't think he had as destructive ki blasts.

      List is out of order but I would say powered up Basil is somwhere around ssj2 tier. He probably stops at super perfect Cell due to Cell's regeneration.

        Goku can't take down SUPER perfect cell in SS1, not even fair. Perfect cell is a better match.

        Freeza heavily implied that he was vastly suppressed in his final form against goku, so he powers up and defeats frost.

        They are evenly matched. Basil might be slightly stronger and slightly faster though. I'm going with basil in a hard fight although vegeta could also pull off a win.

        It begins.
        Basil is Perfect Cell tier, nothing more.
        Ssj2 Majin Vegeta is on a completely different level of power.
        Why Basil is Perfect Cell tier? Goku called him pretty good while in the Boo Arc Cell was considered not that strong(For Goku at least)
        You're talking like being on the same tier as Perfect Cell is something to be ashamed of.
        Anyway, I already explained why I think Basil is Perfect Cell tier in the other thread.
