They changed Gamisaras's appereance, he's not a bug.
Piccolo at least got to eliminate two fighters before going down... but he still did crap all in this Tournament.
He saved Gohan and 18 at least.

Piccolo even had a worse performance than 18, who had 5 eliminations(Sorrel, Shousa, Coccote, Teppel and Brianne).

The preview tripped accidentally but he was actually ringed out.


Thats a big difference especially if you saw the anger on the site because of it.

18 has one of the best performances in the entire arc so thats not an insult.

At least he got screen time and took a couple of fighters out.

I would have rather have him eliminated at the end of the episode, but at least he has a decent number of eliminations now.

Even saved Gohan.
3 eliminations and 2 assists, still below Roshi, who had 4 eliminations and 1 assist.
Better than Tien at least. And I wouldn't count those universe six Namekians getting drilled by Piccolo's SBC right through them as assists.

Saonel doesn't even comment on Gohan when he's about to get eliminated, he comments on Piccolo's attack.

And there's no shame in getting ousted by 18. Least he saved her this episode.

He was hit multiple times in the back. It happened to quick for him to turn around and save himself.

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.

One can only hope Toyotaro does a better job with Piccolo and Universe 6 Namekuseijins, but I won't get my hopes up. :roll:

I was right Damon was tiny, even compared to Gregory.

Also the silhouette for Gamisaras's looked more like a lizard then a bug....I can only guess that there was no real artwork for him because he's invisible so they just stuck a reskinned Damon in that image to give us something to look at. Why on earth they'd even bother to do that I have no idea.

Only Piccolo did was intercept both Saonel and Pirina then the focus was on both Gohan and Goku kamehamehas to blast away their opponents.

Just to quickly point something out: Piccolo and Android 18 have same amount of eliminations (five). The Universe 6 Namkians were eliminated by the combination attack of the Special Beam Cannon and the Kamehameha. So it counts as eliminations for both Gohan and Piccolo.

Toyo cannot outdo toei in this section for one simple reason: there is no way he is going to waste his limited pages on fights or fighters that don't matter.



He is probably going to knock them all out in the beginning like most of you would if you were in the same position.

If its like that then Piccolo had the same performance as Kale. (Involved in 5 eliminations) :think:

Statistically speaking, Piccolo is joint third as the best performer in the Tournament Of Power, along with Kale and #18, with five eliminations. That's not bad at all.
