Huh, it's interesting that Shantsa is fighting Goku too. I wonder what's the range of his attack.

I can't wait for Whis to tell us how tired Goku is while Goku is using SBJB Kaioken to beat those illusions.
I wonder if Goku will survive?The tension is killing me.

Can Freeza still have the most eliminations or has that boat already sailed?

Damn, Shantsa looks too cute in that preview picture. Now I don't want him to ever be eliminated.
He who fights with monsters might take care lest he thereby become a monster. And if you gaze for long into an abyss, the abyss gazes also into you.

I might be way off here, but what if the illusion has them start fighting each other, as in they can't recognize each other. I'm going to laugh (and then cry) if Piccolo gets punched off the ring by Goku. This is what they maybe meant by accident.

Why do I have the feeling Shantsa will summon the rest of U6 besides Botamo and then:

Goku faces ghost Caulifla and Kale

Vegeta faces ghost Cabba.

I feel sorry for the guy who will mistake Jiren for Basil or something..

    Freeza has five eliminations. Goku is in the lead with eleven. So he would have to wipe out the entire U7 team and most of U3 to get ahead. Or all of U3 and all of U11.

      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.

      Pretty sure Goku has like 11, so unless Freeza takes out literally every person left including Jiren, that's not happening.

      I think when we look back, that might be the single dumbest aspect of this whole tournament. It rivals "5 minutes till Namek blows" in absurdity.

      Well for example the guy from Universe 10 that Jimeze the yardrat one-shotted was promoted as a key player for Universe 10

      The other key player from Universe 10 was that guy with a rose who got one-shotted by Ribrianne

      I know he's going to get destroyed by some point, but usually he ends up looking like a fool almost immediately like when he instantly got stabbed by Black.
      How was he made a fool? He was ambushed with an ability he'd never seen before.

      When? No one in U10 got any promotion other than Murichim and it was played as a joke.

      But none of these people were promoted. Murichim was a joke from the onset, Jirasen only had 'hey, that a Yadrat'. Katoplesla is a running gag. All Nigrishi got was a line being the strongest enhance human and nothing more. None of these people were built as key players.

      It really sucks that U10 will end up as the only Universe that got 0 eliminations, U4 will get Piccolo and Katopelsa tonight, then in the next 1-2 weeks I could see 18 going out vs U3.

      It was an ability he used himself as Vegetto.
