King Cold battle power

[SSJ2]

What % of Freeza do you think King Cold's max reaches? He's implied to be equal to suppressed Freeza initially and isn't noted to power up. The anime claims that he is much stronger than suppressed Freeza. Where do you have him?

It really depends how much power Freeza was outputting, given it being far below his Namek 100% is still pretty vague when all 70% of his power accomplished against someone in the same league as his 100% self was some light superficial damage. The Daizenshuu describes him as "somewhat inferior to Freeza" which is also quite vague when it comes to the gap between them. Freeza also brings up the idea of them taking on Goku 2 on 1 despite believing that he can defeat Galu alone, which would seem fairly pointless to bring up if Cold were oneshot material to SSJ Goku as just bringing in an extra body wouldn't really shift the scales if they exit as soon as they enter the battle.

Comparing him to Namek Freeza's percentage, I'd say he'd be a fair bit above 50%, but likely still below 70%. I'd personally have him as equal to 62.5% of Freeza's full power.

Keep in mind that, like Freeza, Cold never had the chance to power up. Freeza died in the blink of an eye and afterwards Cold was trying to trick Trunks into lowering his guard.

I think at full power he’d be 3/4 of Mecha Freeza’s power, rendering him only “somewhat” weaker than Freeza, be it organic or cyborg.

 

[SSJ2]

I wouldn't say that. Given the fact that he didn't attempt to power up after seeing his son get slaughtered, that leads me to believe he was maxed out. He doesn't have a form like Freeza that needs to bulk up to reach 100%. It wouldn't make sense for him to half ass his attack on Trunks.

On the other hand, why would he be walking around at full power? Nobody does that.

Also, he didn’t even want to fight Trunks.
