I meant Vegeta, he said Freeza was alone, meaning he couldn't detect Kuririn and Gohan.

===//===//===

If the followers of Freeza who destroyed the spaceship of the earthlings could detect Kuririn and Gohan signals, shouldn't Freeza too?

===//===//===

I myself would classify the competitors this way

Super tier (in order of strength):
- XXI
- Majin Boo from Universe 4
- Vegetto
- Broli
- Son Bra

Top tier
- Goku and Vegeta from Universe 18 (main universe)
- Gotenks
- Oob
- Trunks from Universe 12
- Goku and Vegeta from Universe 13 (Super Saiyans universe)
- Gast Cargolh
- Cell

Less strong participants
- Majin Boo from Universe 11
- South Kaioshin
- Tapion
- King Cold
- Bardock
- Bojack

Least powerfull participants
- Super humans
- Eleim
- No.17 and 18

I just noticed that Gast's existance is a plot hole. Gast is supposed to be the fusion of all Namekians, right? But Warrior-type & Dragon Clan Namekians can't merge... :? Of course, IIRC, this was stated in the Daizenshuu, not in the series, so Salagir just ignores them. But this makes Toyble's or Youngjiji's DBAF more acceptable than DBM to me... :x

Superman is, and always has been, a symbol for truth, justice, and upstanding moral fortitude–a role model and leader as much as a fighter.

Though never shy about risking his life to save either one person or the entire world, he just doesn’t believe that the balance of the world rests in any way on his shoulders, and he has no need to shape any part of it in his image. Goku is an idealist, and believes that there is some good in everyone, but he is unconcerned with the big picture of the world…unless it has to do with some kind of fight. Politics, society, law and order don’t have much bearing on his life, but he’s a man who knows right from wrong.

This seems to be a special case, since they were one person before. At least Kami & Daimao.

If something is truly perfect, that's IT! The bottom line becomes there is no room for imagination! No space for intelligence or ability or improvement! Do you understand? To men of science like us, perfection is a dead end, a condition of hopelessness. Always strive to be better than anything that came before you but not perfect! Scientist's agonize over the attempt to achieve perfection! That's the kind of creatures we are! We take joy in trying to exceed our grasp, in trying to reach for something that in the end, we have to admit may in fact be unreachable!"

Because the manga needs a major villain, which XXI seems to be.

He doesn't have to be strong to be the main villain though.

Where does Freeza rank on the tier list? I guess he would rank pretty high if Salagir gives him a 5th form during his battle against Nappa.

Because XXI is the being who sealed the Elder Kaioshin into the Z Sword in Multiverse, and according to the old guy's statements in the manga, even though he was inferior to Buu, he was still a pretty big threat. All this happened about 70 million years before Buu was even created, and about 75 million and some change before the current story...assuming he went undefeated/sealed/whatever in his universe, that is a LOT of time to increase your power.

This is DBZ, where random abilities are made up on the spot, you realize...so there's easily a few explanations:

-Freeza killed off all of one clan, so the rest realized they had no chance and merged.

-They gathered the Dragonballs and wished to be merged.

-Guru realized the race's end was near and, in desperation, broke the magical rules of merging.

Since Dragon Ball has always been about power more than anything, it doesn't make sense to assume otherwise, even though its possible.

Or such rule doesn't exist in that universe, for whatever reason, and, because of that, they actually thought of merging when Freeza attacked and did it.

Wouldn't it be something if XXI turns out to be the ORIGINAL Legendary Super Saiyin from so long ago?

Bardock special notwithstanding.

Dear God, NO! I want's an original villain, with cool transformations and cool powers, and he has to be the strongest being.

Haha, it was just a suggestion.

One thing that has been missing from this tourney: The Demon Realm.

Yeah, we had Dabura, but that's an entire realm Toriyama never really had time or ideas to explore. It was all aliens. Even Bibidi was an alien, and Buu was his creation so he wasn't really a demon either, just a...weird bubblegum creature.

I wouldn't mind the villain being a Makaioshin. It makes sence too, for a Makaioshin sealing a Kaioshin.
