Honestly Hit could potentially win it all if he could destroy his opponents. His only problem would be Goku essentially. But if he took all the other teams out, it'd be Goku vs all of universe 6.
It all depends on who faces each other. Roshi could easily be the last one standing. Everyone is going to be watching out for the rest of their team and stamina management is going to be important as well so Goku will not be using Blue until the end.

Couldnt they just blitz the weaker ones? have Gohan go mystic and blitz the weak ones, then have Vegeta go blue and blitz the one thats above mystic level, then leave the rest to Goku since he has SSJBKK. I mean all you need to do is throw them out of the arena.

There is 80 people in the arena at the same time, so they will have people coming after them while they are trying to go after others. It would be mad to target people at the start as they know nothing about the fighters.

The best tactic for them would be to just fight who they can see and stay in groups so they don't become isolated.

They can do that but they won't seeing as how Goku and Vegeta could've stomped the first 4 U6 fighters using SSJ2 but didn't.
Why I use "Geran" instead of "Jiren"

It's a marathon. Not a sprint. A team doing something like that would get annihilated asap

Dude, they're already at the top of the list on who to beat first because of Bergamo's slick talking, literally every GoDs are out to get him, he even outright said "get your best fighters, come at me with everything you got, I'll beat them all!" I wont be surprised if all 70 would round up to get rid of U7 first before anyone else.

That makes me wonder, we haven't seen a lot of force coming from people powering up other than our cast..

Anyways, goku counting on gohan , him saying he will do his best for this, this might be cell games all over again :lol:

I could see Gohan being the last one standing as a plot twist to be honest. This could be the build up people were hoping to see.

I just don't think you realize how dumb it would be to just full out blitz everyone without knowing everyone's abilities. You could straight up cause your entire team to lose because of a stupid idea like that.

That's why you need to strategize.

Well like Goku said "dont take your time on an opponent you cant read, dont hold back and go at it in full force" unless you think Goku's dumb when it comes to fighting.

Goku's way won't always work, especially if you aren't Goku.

There's a fine line between observing/strategizing and being an idiot who decides to just jump in head onand attack everyone Without thinking. You're picking one statement that Goku made and turning it around. When Goku fought hit, he didn't just blitz him. He observed.

What if they didn't know Hit and decided to blitz him? There's a lot at stake here unlike the U6 and U7 arc. Hit is fighting for his life. Do you honestly think you'd be able to blitz someone who can pause time?

Also, there are going to be people there close to Goku in power that he can't just swat away. What if the alien and hit double teamed Goku and Vegeta? That would leave countless fighters the opportunity to pick off the rest of U7 with ease. It's useless if Goku is the only one standing in U7 and other universes have multiple people still around.

You need to strategize. There's no way Yu can convince me blitzing is a good idea.. Unless you've been completely oblivious to all the anime shows out where the bad guys will blitz the main character not knowing what he's capable of.

Thats not the point, my point is Gohan blitzing the weaker ones and having Vegeta blitz the ones that are stronger than Gohan, Hit is SSJB level.

Blitzing works if youre in a league of your own compared to the others, dont tell me you're gonna buy that all 70 of those guys rivals SSJB? surely you jest.

I wasnt convincing you of the blitz thing in the 1st place, I was asking a question. Your answer didnt give me the answer I wanted tho.

If Gohan blitzs the weaker ones, who's to protect our weak ones from getting blitzed? If people see our strongest fighters are preoccupied with strong fighters, all it would take is someone on vegetas level slipping away while Vegetas distracted with other people in his class to take out Piccolo and the lot.

Well ofc there will be loses on their side as well, you want all U7's 10 fighters standing tall for 48mints? not gonna happen, at best Goku and Vegeta are the only ones that'll last that long, hell they may even lose this and somethng happens down the road.
Thats why they're in a very dire situation, all 70 participants are most likely gonna go at them first because they started this mess (rather Goku started this mess) strategizing comes before getting in the ring, if blitzing doesnt work then go for another plan, but fighting off 10v70? yeaaaa, someones gonna fall.

While that's a good idea, the problem is that I feel they already milked the rivalry of these two with they training with each other and Goku vs Copy Vegeta in the fillers.
Unless they go the DBO route and both have a suicide brawl for the series finale, it's hard for me to get excited about another Goku vs Vegeta.

Still expect the usual Toriyama's twist that nobody will see coming.
A world without Dragon Ball is just boring.
