Going by the history they probably are nothing but space fillers for the team, and some fanservice as well..

Especially given they don't have training time exactly, after all in that short amount of time not all can use the time chamber
So doing bad is a guarantee and doing good is fan service ? I hate that term because people over use the hell out of it.

Not all can use the time chamber but Whis has a staff with a similar environment. Don't worry, they wouldn't bring ten participants only for it to be a Goku and Vegeta show. I'm now 100 percent confident Goku, Gohan , Vegeta, Krillin and 17 will all be relevant. Boo, 18, Roshi and Piccolo are debatable while I think Tien is going to be irrelevant.
Why are you so confident of this?
It's just speculation. I don't think Buu will do much because he already had a great fight in the Zen exhibition match.

Gohans been getting in and out of universe hype, krillins been at the forefront of marketing for human characters, and 17 is getting marketed a lot. You might think it's nothing but I think it's pretty telling.

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.

17 will no doubt play a key role. Why else would he be brought back after all these years?

Super fails to capitalize on stuff like this. The future Trunks arc would have been much better if it was Black Goten or Black Gohan. Goten would be an ironic parallel to their future parts , and Gohan because he was Future Trunks mentor and it would make sense for him to be so strong.

Id like it for Trunks to idolize Vegeta.

Why ? Gotens pretty much a blank slate. His body doesn't even need to be stolen, I could easily see him being able to get corrupted by Zamasu.

This is a story involving different universes and timelines, they could've definitely made excuses for Zamasu to steak Gohans body.

Out of bounds and with him not being able to fly? yes definitely.
How ? Tien would be the only one able to push him and only if he's on the edge.
Tien,Yamcha and Krillin, not Tien/Yamcha or Krillin. He was asking those 3 against Cell not individually.

Yes they are. Flight works over the arena but not outside the bounds. It's shown quite clearly when Grand Priest explains the rules.

I'm still curious about how you picture it happening. The only thing I figure is that they could have destroyed the ring, but that still exposes themselves to ring out and there's always high jumping and ki blast propulsion.

They're allowed to fly in the ring, but once they're outside the ring they can't fly. This is obviously so that they can't fly back up once they've been thrown off the ring. I don't see why people have so much trouble with this.

That's right, all the subs are telling the same, they even showed examples with chibi Goku to make everybody understand.

Thats not my point about him not being able to fly, it meant not being able to fly back to the ring when he's out of bounds.

Thanks for the updates guys. Can't wait to see Bra born and this mean we'll see Vegeta pulling no stops in order to protect his daughter from being erased.

Looks like Toppo is going be be pretty powerful if his battle with Goku is enough to get our saiyan worried about the tournaments outcome.

Yeah. It makes me think that scene in the NEP where Toppo is restraining Goku is near the end of their fight just before it gets interrupted.
