Isn't it obvious? I stalk you :thumbup:
That tag team is for Jiren as Goku gets his arse kicked for being to cocky as usual which will be great to watch.
Gohan got his ass handed by SSBKK, piccolo's attack didn't do damage, jiren is many times more powerful than SSBKK..

You are high balling them a little too much
Many times stronger than Super Saiyan God Super Saiyan/Kaioken? Based on what?

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.

Toppo saw Goku use SSBKK, and still claimed he had no chance against Jiren. Toppo himself was powering up and Goku felt the need to go SSBKK on him. Jiren is definitely above SSBKK by quite a bit, but it remains to be seen if he's above SSBKKx10 or a lower multiplier. As for a prediction, nah. I don't see Goku getting stomped for Piccolo and Gohan to handle Jiren, I don't even see Piccolo fighting Jiren at all. I find it funnier NamekianSakyan thinks there's no chance that he could possibly lose to one of U6's Saiyans. I'd prefer if Piccolo defeat one of them personally, but the possibility of him losing is out there.

As for Gohan, I'm not sure what kind of build up I'm getting from him his saga. Sure it has parallels with the Cell Saga, but I'm not getting he same build up from Gohan here as I was for him there. Not sure if I see Gohan clutching it for the team (at least on his own).

Great that Bardock got honored.
Of course he did. All of those were drew by @dragongarowLEE the artist of Yamcha's spin-off and big Dragon Ball fan.
Toyotaro can only dream on ever reaching that level of art one day. Lee is a Beast on his own!

A world without Dragon Ball is just boring.

Toppo also saw Super Saiyan God Super Saiyan, yet acted new when Goku transformed and stomped his face. So Jiren maybe above Super Saiyan God Super Saiyan/Kaioken, but the same doesn't really hold true for Toppo.

There is chance anyone could beat any opponent due to the way this tournament. There will many fights happening at once and people will be constantly getting tired and injured.

I do not want to see Piccolo vs any of the Saiyans as I would find that very boring. I want him to fight a Namekian from Universe 6 as one of his fights if Toriyama gives us one. I will not be happy if he doesn't as he would have given 3 Saiyans a Yardratian and a Frieza race guy. The last two places for Universe 6 need to be a Namekian and an Earthling.

Oh shit, I forgot, we might see the ALL of Universe 6's participants. Aside from Namekians or Earthlings, what other species has a shot? Maybe the last two spots are going to be the race that originally made the fusion technique, or another Yardratian.

I'm hoping for a member of Bojack's race myself. :thumbup: What were they called? Heras or something like that? I could also see a Metamori, a Kanassan, or a member of Ledgic's race. U6 feels like their opportunity to utilize races or transformations from the expanded universe.

I would love to see a Kanassan on the team, then I could technically say I fought in the tournament :D

U6 team so far:

Hit
Frost
Cabba
Kale
Caulifla
Magetta
Botamo
Possible Yardratian

I think the last two may be jobbers of another unknown Alien race. It would be cool to have the Demon King of Universe 6 (If there is one) and a Tsufurusian on the U6 team.

I know Frost is deceptive, but maybe this is a way of them showing us he isn't as evil as Frieza.

Frost really doesn't have any reason to be lying at that point. Hit just needs Frost to fight, not to be a good person. I think Hit's interaction with Frost is setting up a sort of redemption arc for Frost. I can see it going with Frost and Frieza making a plan, but Frost growing cold feet because even he doesn't want to go through the lengths that Frieza goes for. Maybe Cabba defends Frost again, making Frost 'owe him one'.

Frost is a bald-faced liar and people still want to believe in him. It really inspires me as to the effectiveness of lying.

I'm really interested in how Freeza will react in seeing a fellow mate from same race he belongs :)

The Earthlings just got revival, so why would they have any strong fighters? Also, the ongoing joke in the series is that humans are weak compared to every race in the known universe outside the outliers, who are crap compared to well-trained aliens even if they don't train.

I really hope they finally give these guys a name. Doesn't feel right calling Frost "Frieza Clan" when he's not even from the same universe. :lol:

I hope they mention Dyspo looks similar to Beerus when they meet the other Pride Troopers. I would find it odd that someone that looks like Beerus would not be brought up. Many people do believe that Champa and Beerus may have been born in U11 before they became a God of Destruction in their own Universe.

Does anyone else see Freeza getting erased by Beerus so that he can't come back to life?

I'm still hoping for this to happen. Finally put an end to relying on Freeza and his imagery.
Why Dragon Ball Consistency in something such as power levels matter!

What the hell happened to Kibito? He hasn't been around in the last few episodes at all. I think the last we saw him was during the exhibition matches.
