But in Herms translations, it seems Kamiccolo already knew he was nothing to Cell, whereas Vegeta is at least confident in the Cell Games, before Goku showed his true power.
Kamicollo and Future Trunks both think Cell is stronger than what Vegeta thinks.

Well, that chapter in general tells us a lot about everyone's powers: Piccolo isn't mentioned to be fighting evenly, so he's below Vegeta and Trunks. He's also not stated to be presently in danger, so he's at least stronger than a weakened Goku. Where he's standing is between those powers, but fairly ambiguous beyond that. It is worth noting that earlier during the end of Goku vs. Cell the latter only mentions Vegeta or Trunks as Goku's possible replacements (and even then weaker then him), as far as the manga is concerned - so we know he's not perceived as that strong.

No, i think Kamicollo is more skilled than Zarbon. I wold like for Kamicollo to be a rival to Vegeta but Cell leaving him out of his little s'saying about who's competing with the Cell Juniors makes me think there is a noticable gap.

But if Kamiccolo is 88% of Vegeta, Vegeta would tool him without too much problems.
I agree. Vegeta's a skill beast

Yea, Kamiccolo probably discovered that Goku 50% is not 100% Goku during his year in the Rosat. Or maybe he heard the conversation between Goku and Karin? I don't know.

But it's implied Vegeta doesn't think Goku 50% is Goku 100% either.

In Viz:

Vegeta: "Show me what you can do Kakarot".

Jap anime Cell mentions Piccolo with Vegeta and Trunks as far as who is going to fight him after Goku quits.

Piccolo wouldn't be that shocked if he heard Goku say that was 50% of his power. I just think that everybody assumed it was closer to Goku's 80% and not his 50%

Yeah, like I said that's added in the anime. Manga only says "Vegeta or Trunks should still be below you" and not Piccolo.

Cell probably mentioned only Vegeta or Trunks as Goku's possible replacements because as far as Cell knows, Vegeta and Trunks are way stronger than Piccolo. He doesn't know Piccolo's new powers.

Kamicollo did have a hunch, which was confirmed by Goku when he walked out the RoSaT, this shocked Trunks. But Vegeta was not around.

But he still doesn't consider Piccolo worth mentioning in the later statement about Trunks and Vegeta fighting evenly against their opponents when Piccolo was all-out. Cell's hunch is pretty accurate, all things considered

But in one panel of the manga Piccolo was shown throwing a punch in Cell Junior's head.

I think 88% of Vegeta is fine. Kamicollo definitely looks like a beast standing up as much as Trunks and Vegeta are in that manga scan. But him not being mentioned by Cell regarding the Cell Juniors should definely indicate he's not equal to Vegeta or Future Trunks.

I just looked at the chapter in question, and I can't seem to find the panel at all. You might be confusing the fight with the anime where Piccolo did much better.

Also, in a larger panel Piccolo has a bloodied up face, but the Cell Jr. he's fighting has no injuries

Here I see Piccolo punching the mini Cell in the head:

Vegeta is a lot more confident than Future Trunks as well. But we know they're equal in power. So yeah both Future Trunks and Kamicollo are guessing Cell is considerably above what Vegeta is guessing. Vegeta thinks he's gonna win the Cell Games, Trunks doesnt.

The figures are too abstract to see Piccolo's uppercut(?) land a hit.

So you think Vegeta would defeat Kamiccolo without problems?

That's a very good point.

I thought Piccolo was blocking in that panel.

Either way, it looks like Vegeta was the only one who landed a hit on the Cell Jr.
