Glade that ideas been hakied now. Feel the full destructive power of justice nonbelievers!!!!
He wasn't weak, but he certainly wasn't GoD level strong before. This is clearly a new power that he manages to awaken due to being cornered and nearly eliminated by Freeza and 17. Probably some deep hidden potential that he has due to being chosen as the next GoD.
What I refer to is people taking his line out of contexts. Toppo detractors used his "I'm not shore I could beat him" line to infer that Toppo was not as powerful as he was made out to be. Compeletly negeltecting Goku's own missgivings on who would be the winner between them bespite haveing SSBKKx20 up his sleeve.

Toppo was always very strong but Toppo The God of Destcution is the final nail in that idea.
I certainly don't believe he's SSBKKx20 strong. He wouldn't be getting pushed back and cornered by two SSB level fighters if that was the case. He's about SSB level or maybe a bit higher prior to this GoD power-up IMO.

Like I said though, you can't really use GoD Toppo to argue against Toppo detractors because he just now acquired this power. It wasn't something he had before.

He is getting pushed back in hos normal state, not his G.o.D state. And at this point in the tournament, he is going to be at least kkx20 level, because the show will need him to be.

Ok? I never argued that GoD Toppo wasn't at that level. He's easily beyond it if he's truly at the level of a GoD, which it looks like he will be. I said that Toppo prior to his GoD power-up wasn't as strong as SSBKKx20.

Nah, nobody really cares about Jaco

he was easily one of the best parts about the movie and is arguably the best thing modern toriyama has written.

You mean Beerus? Yea, then I somewhat agree with that.

Oh no, i think everyone will agree with you that toppo is not near kaioken x20 level while in his normal form. I was just talking about his god form.

Spoilers were a bit contradicting but from the preview images, he appears to actually become a GoD so his power has to be significantly beyond KKx20.

Of course he should be. Theres a reason 126 is hyped up for vegeta to surpass a god (which refers to toppo)

What if Vegeta is secretly Beerus' successor, as is Toppo for Belmod, and he draws out GoD powers too?

I assume he'd have to go through some ritual or very special training to be a successor so it's most likely hidden Saiyan power.

You've got to love Saiyan DNA, it's the gift that keeps giving.
July 9th 2018 will be remembered as the day Broly became canon.

Like being trained by an Angel? :P

I don't think Vegeta has ever commented on becoming Beerus' successor one way or the other so who knows what might happen?

Tell me about it, limit is not a thing Saiyan DNA seems to have, and when that's not enough, you got old Saiyan ghosts giving you godly powerups..

There are no mentions of rituals, we only have Whis making jokes about Vegeta becoming a GoD, iirc he never openly refused and he received more training by Whis than Goku

Who knows! Would be a great twist imo

Which is why Freeza did nothing wrong when he wiped them out.

I doubt Vegeta would take the GoD job . He has a family that he likes and not sure he’d want a job that keeps him away from them
