Actual Nappa > Masenko > Expected Nappa (Post Kikoho) > Kikoho > Expected Nappa (Post Suicide Blast) > Suicide Blast > Expected Nappa > Piccolo

Piccolo gets killed by Suicide Blast, Kikoho, and Masenko. He's straight up weak sauce.

But did they ever really expect their attacks to kill him? I think they all knew how futile it was as soon as they felt Nappa's power.

Piccolo thinks that Suicide Blast took out Nappa.

Piccolo thinks Kikoho killed Nappa and calls him a monster for surviving.

Piccolo is very weak in this saga.

Kikoho must be close to Initial Nappa, since it did the same kind of superficial damage that Vegeta's blast did to Recoome, and Vegeta's blast was close to Recoome. Massenko is not close to Initial Nappa. Therefore Kikoho>Massenko.

Kikoho did far less damage than Final Crash did to Reecome.

Masenko damaged Nappa's hand. It's close to Nappa's power here.

Damn, Piccolo straight up thinks Nappa is dead. So does everyone else. Then Tien gets pissed and says, I'm going to do it.

Kikoho > Expected Nappa 2 > Suicide Blast > Expected Nappa >> Piccolo

Piccolo is getting killed by damn near every Z-Fighter's finishing move.

If you insist on Massenko>Kikoho, how's this?

Massenko - 2,800
Kikoho - 2,600
2nd Expected Nappa - 2,400
Suicide Blast - 2,200
Expected Nappa - 2,000
Piccolo - 1,700
Tenshinhan - 1,400
Krillin - 1,350
Yamcha - 1,300
Saibaimen - 1,200

That’s what the evidence shows.

After Kikoho fails, the plan is still for Gohan to finish Nappa is it not? Nothing has changed.


Piccolo - 1,700
I’d say Piccolo has to be at least 2,000 and Tien is 1,600. Tien being 1.33x Saibaman makes sense to me because he practically one shots it. He’s gotta have a decent advantage here.

Hmm not sure where to put the Suicide Blast… there’s hardly any room and with Piccolo at 2,000 it’s tough…

I have to look into how strong Intial Expected Nappa fared.

Actual Nappa 3,000
Masenko 2,800
Expected Nappa 2,750
Kikoho 2,400
Expected Nappa 2,250
Suicide Blast ….

Ran out of room. You might be onto something with Piccolo so low…

This is going to be extremely tight.

Let’s switch to a different scale, maybe it can be easier.

Let me try.

Saibaman 100
Yamcha 100
Krillen 110
Tien 120
Piccolo 135

Damn all that feels so tight…. Shoot, this is going to be hard.

No. The plan was for them to grab Nappa's tail first, and when that didn't work, they no longer hoped to win, only to stall for Goku to arrive.

Tenshinhan didn't one shot, and it was stated that the Saibaiman underestimated him. There's no way Piccolo can be 2,000 with the chain still working. We have to place him lower.

It seems that Piccolo really was a weakling in this arc, no wonder his suppressed level wasn't much higher than Gohan and Krillin's.

I'd like to believe Piccolo was around 2,000 at least but it's hard to justify.

It's really a tight gap because we know he has to be able to tank the scattering bullet no problem and whoop Piccolo with ease but still be grievously injured by the self destruct. I just say fuck it and have expected Nappa around the same as the self destruct. Maybe self destructs are just more efficient at wiping out targets than regular blasts because most of the time you clutch onto the opponent to maximize the effect. For instance, I doubt even with Cell's guard down Goku could've wiped out his upper body had it not been a point blank KHH.
