Weakest who can beat Krillin?

Riding the recent Krillin hype. 😛

Who is the weakest character in DB who can beat DBS Krillin?

18 probably.

Edit: Current 18.

Original 18 gets slaughtered easily.

I'm of the opinion that yamcha, krillin. and tien are close enough that a fight between any of the three could go either way

Krillin surpassed all other Earthlings by leaps and bounds as of Super, and Yamcha has always been behind them.

Krillin has been the strongest earthling since Namek, tbh.

Even as of DBS, the Toei site still gave him the "strongest earthling" title during the BoG and RoF arcs, and the DBS Animedia Featurette(which gives a quick rundown of U7's team during the ToP) also lists him as the strongest earthling -- putting him above Roshi and Tien.

That being said, I agree that DBS #18 is the 'weakest' character who can beat him these days.

He's stronger than tien and yamcha, but I don't think the gap is that wide. Yamcha has pretty insane durability being in the epicenter of 2 gods fighting and survived and also took quite the beating from one of the prisoners with no noticable damage. The kienza would still probably do him in, but I'm confident he could keep fighting after a kamehameha

Are you talking about that baseball game episode? If so, I don't even know how we'd begin to quantify that as a feat for Yamcha..?

Regardless, I'd put Krillin well above him. You aren't going to convince me that he'd be able to do anything at all against DBS Goku and Gohan. /shrug

And I don't imagine krillin could have survived stealing home.

How to play as Yamcha in Budokai 3.

1. Unlock Z3 mode.

2. Choose Yamcha at Z3 difficulty.

3. Enjoy repeatedly getting blown up to Saibamen.

Fair enough.

Just let him a train a little and he'll be able to steamroll them both at the same time, lol.

(Super did Tien dirty, Krillian is much stronger at that point)

In Z?

Nah, the Tri-Beam was wickedly haxx... It allowed Tien(who was FAR inferior to even the Androids) to step up WAY beyond his weight class and punk Semi-Perfect Cell for a moment.

That being said, I've always viewed the Tri-Beam as an extremely one-dimensional attack that would be very easy to dodge if Tien's opponent wasn't inhibited by PIS and just fought smart.

I wonder about #18 beating him.

If she scales to her brother, sure. But if she's weaker then the Gohan Krillin fought, he just might be able to take her now.

TIEN

*runs away before Galan gets his epilepsy attack*

So Krillin is the undisputed strongest earthling in DBS then? Not even Roshi or Tien can beat him these days?

Crazy how much Tori wanks that little ****er 😛

Oob is technically the strongest earthling(or at least he will be), by a huge margin. But yeah, DBS Krillin is well above Roshi and Tien.

Toriyama has always been a Krillin fangirl. He's made that clear in various interviews over the years.

I mean the Androids are pretty much humans at this point, like 18 & 17 can procreate.

17 is the strongest human in that case.

Plus Krillin can use it without almost dying and the Tri-Beam takes a lot out of Tien, with it even being arguable that it's that much more powerful then the Kienzan.

Remember how shocked everyone was that it didn't cut PERFECT CELL in half?

Also in terms of scaling, let's not forget Krillin fought Imperfect Cell and did alright for a bit before getting lodged into the plane. It's even more impressive when you consider the fight was completely H2H and Krillin did actual damage for a moment.

It's crazy how much Krillin (and 18 by scaling) have grown since then.
