And, hah, I knew this unlimited regeneration thing was just phrased unfortunate and fans were theorizing for nothing. Like every other second.
Unlimited Regeneration was something though as they have ridiculous stamina and vitality. All the damage didn't affect them.
That's not the same thing as unlimited regeneration. I know you like Piccolo and other Namekians but not every post you make needs to be a divine glorification of Piccolo or them. It gets as tiresome as when that one Goten fan from one-two years ago really put the word Goten in his post even when the topic had nothing to do with it. As said, the phrasing was misleading.
If you can't tell the difference between when Piccolo regenerates compared to Saonel and Pirina then that is your problem.

If you don't like me speaking about Piccolo then just ignore me. I am not doing anything wrong and basically telling me to be quiet about Piccolo when he and 2 other Namekians had big roles in the latest episode is just completely ridiculous.

They kiiiiind of tried to come up with an explanation for that this episode, meaning that that the other universes specifically target them. It makes sense then for U7 to have most eliminations.

After rewatching the preview, I kinda agree 18 will be eliminated.

The main fight in episode 119 is vs the Cicadas, the Shansta fight might be dragged to episode 120.

It wouldnt make sense if U4 goes down in 1 episode, Universe 2 went down after 2 episodes of fighting.

Speaking of Shansta, I cant imagine Gohans reaction if Shansta necros Obuni...

Shantsa will probably lose in episode 119 to Piccolo and Gohan with the Bugs being finished in episode 120.

Kinda doubt it because thats how people were expecting to happen to Universe 2 and Zarbuto,Zirloin and Ranbara featwise did better than expected.

One thing for sure is that at least someone from U4 will go down(see Quitela freaking out in the preview).

I cant wait for the next batch of spoilers this week, and the week after its Jump Festa week, they better announce a new arc and not a Movie or TV Special.

On the contrary. It is actually your problem showing off the same fan behaviour as everyone trying to come up with some fan explanation to defend whatever you like and that is not actually giving you anything in the end and preventing you from doing other conversations. A high physical endurance or "stamina and vitality" if we phrase it the way you want has nothing to do with "unlimited regeneration" in the context of what everyone was talking about and yes, also not you. And your act is very bad right now. I have read your posts one week ago and you were incredibly eager about what you saw as an incredibly new ability that would be introduced and that Piccolo would surely get it. You WERE NOT talking about maxed out endurance. As a matter of fact one week ago I already predicted that it would probably not even be something overly new and that people just might expect to much because of the wording.

Pretty polemic/unnecessarily defensive about some valid criticism about your addictive focus on one and the same topic in every post. The complaint was not about the latest episode but the sum of it all and if you would not lack the interest to actually talk about such things properly you would have read my post in the proper context but instead you were doing what so many do instead. As said, I am reading your posts and really everything I read from you is Piccolo here, Piccolo there, as if Dragon Ball would only consist of that or owe the Namekians to fulfill your expectations (see my last paragraph where you clearly were not talking about just some high physique and yet now try to defend the newest outcome again just for the sake of it even though that had nothing to do with what you originally said and posted like it was some awesome new revelation that is to be expected when in the end it was nothing but something very very similiar to what we knew from other characters from years ago). Your unrealistic expectations/not being able to let go off as well as your urge to defend that for one moment is the ridiculous thing here. There are people who might actually want to have a talk about other things here (also with you) but everytime you bring in Piccolo and as it was very obviously proven by you right now you get so absurdly defensive about it when someone tells you you exaggerate it just like the likes of GMGoken with his Goten fanatism and others (something that even VegettoEX called him out about once just because literally every post of him even in a topic that had nothing to do with Goten was about Goten) ... I guess you get the gist of it. You are exaggerating. No one is telling you to not be a fan. I myself like Piccolo as he is very high on my list and I think the Namekians are some of the more interesting alien races. That is not the problem here.

EDIT@namekiansaiyan: Do you really think posting once more after the post you have written is gonna do any good? Don't think I will read it. Chances are high you do not have a single word of reconsideration included after this defensive manner, irrational and off-contextual as it is, of yours. Someone who gets like this after one complaint really will not get another reply of me. I've had enough.

Who couldve believed that there is a good chance Piccolo will end up in the Final 10?

Next episode eliminations would be imo:
Katopelsa
18
Gamisaras
Damon

Someone should also get rid of Biarra, he has been stuck in a wall since episode 117 and he is also proved to be fodder.

I think Katopesla has a chance of surviving next episode if U4 begins their attack before Vegeta can eliminate him.

I believe next episode we will see 18, Katopesla and Shantsa being eliminated. It may still be too soon for the bugs to go - Quitela seems to be quite confident of them.

The fight of Piccolo was totally ridiculous.
He looks like an ant against Namekians.
He does literally NOTHING AT ALL.
Even his 1hour Makankosappo with gohan's shield (impossible in 1vs1) don't eliminate Namekians, it's Gohan Kaméhaméha.
So it's safe to say Piccolo will be eliminated soon.
Actually C18 has shown better feat alone.
If we keep 2 minutes by épisode, i'm pretty sure we'll have to say goodbye to Piccolo in 1 or 2 épisodes.

This post is obviously designed to get a reaction.

Piccolo's Special Beam Cannon was still going through Saonel and Pirina when Gohan used his Kamehameha so it is a double elimnation for both Gohan and Piccolo.

Once again the episode preview summaries lied, and this time, they lied hard.

UH, no, the scene clearly shows that the Namekians would have broken through Gohan's attack and punched him Cooler-style if Piccolo hadn't hit them with the SPB.

This is one of my few complaints about this Tournament. I get why everyone is going after Universe 7 (It's the main Universe, most still think it's Goku's fault they are being erased and he seems to be an easy target after his fight against Jiren), but seeing other Universe scoring some points in that department would be cool.
A world without Dragon Ball is just boring.

The image of shirtless goku said "something terrible" had happened. Whis said it would be harder for goku to get back to UI so what could that be?

I honestly think we will get to about 4 u7 fighters left vs only jiren with like 7-8 minutes and jiren will one by one wreck everyone but goku and that will push him back to UI

So it really looks like U7's fighting the "souls" of those who've been erased. I'm pretty sure I saw Hop, Sorrel, Basil and Botamo in the last two shots of the preview.
