Android 17 vs Frieza (end of DBS)

Not open for further replies.
Broly Movie feats can't be included cause that would be a 3A vs Low 2C fight, which is a mismatch

I am referring to the fact that Frieza's end of ToP base power is actively supported by his scaling in the Broly film (along with Goku's own scaling). Frieza has used barriers beforehand and Frieza has already had absurd endurance and stamina prior to the Broly film. I honestly think Frieza's stamina feat should be treated as the case for all of his keys, as it isn't a special trait that he gained from training. At worst, he has had that stamina due to his training in Hell which was prior to the ToP.

17 is a much better strategist and would actually try to find a strategy to win,

Hard disagree. 17 is calmer and more patient than Frieza, willing to play out the waiting game but Frieza displayed in the ToP that he is willing, and capable, of playing the waiting game. He recognised Goku's role as Jiren's destroyer, protected and saved Goku multiple times, helped Goku recover and worked with Goku despite his inherent loathing for him at the end of the tournament. His plans in the ToP also all revolved around manipulating the others into second-guessing his motives.

In hindsight, it becomes quite clear that Frieza manipulated the cast into trusting him enough to adhere to reviving him.

In regards to tactics and fighting, Frieza learned and matched Goku's entire fighting style after fighting him only twice in his entire life via mental simulations and has created techniques such as Imprisonment Ball, Death Cage, Homing Death Beams and Barriers despite never receiving formal training. On the other hand, 17's barriers may be inherent to his design (considering he had them in Z) but he developed them over the course of decades.

Overall, Frieza isn't a lesser strategist. He just has a much harder time keeping his cool, which 17 can take advantage of.

try to just tank everything 17 throws at him due to 1. his cockiness, and 2. his inability to sense 17's power level

Frieza has never tanked attacks a day in his life. He has always preferred using his superior speed to terrify his opponents. The only instance of him choosing to just overpower the opponent would be once against Vegeta and once against Nail, who were both far slower than Frieza.

Frieza is going to choose to dodge and as soon as he dodges one attack, he will realize how dangerous 17 actually is. Frieza, even at disbelief of Goku's power and lacking ki sense, still chose to try and blow up Namek's core instead of winning in a direct confrontation and after RoF has become less narssistic regarding his power and acknowledges the superiority of others.

And I'm pretty sure that 17's shields can take attacks stronger than himself anyways

Most likely, but he still has to drop the shield to attack Frieza. Frieza can paralyse 17, shield against 17's kamikaze attacks and even destroy the planet. 18 shows that androids can't breath in space after all. Frieza's own stamina should be treated enough to outlast 17's oxygen with his shield or even shatter his air-bubble.

Frieza may be intelligent and a good manipulator, but in actual battlesw, 17 has clearly shown planning and strategy more than Frieza, Frieza usually just uses raw power to try defeating opponents, while 17 basically always using his brain to do so.

Actually, he tried to tank an attack from a literal GoD in training.

He has to drop the shield to attack Frieza, yes, but he's so good at swityching between his two modes that it hardly even matters. 17 is definitely the kind of fighter to shoot attacks from a distance and holding his shield up at any other time.

Not really? He evaded Toppo instead of engaging directly and kamikaze attacked Jiren several times. Neither of which are any better than Frieza creating Death Cage on the spur to trap Dyspo or choosing to destroy the core of Namek instead of just fighting Goku directly.

Actually, he tried to tank an attack from a literal GoD in training.

...How did I know someone was going to mention this? Frieza wasn't trying to tank the Hakai. He was trying to control it. You even see his shock when the Hakai moves past his hand and when he tries to compress it like he did with Sidra's Hakai. He presumed he could control all Hakai energy after handling a single Hakai sphere.

He has to drop the shield to attack Frieza, yes, but he's so good at swityching between his two modes that it hardly even matters.

Not...really? Where are you getting this from? 17 doesn't switch between barriers and attacks. He either uses barriers on the defensive, goes for the offensive w/o barriers or uses barriers to trap opponent's in a kamikaze attack. When has 17 used barriers in-between attacking like, say, Gogeta against Broly?

17 is definitely the kind of fighter to shoot attacks from a distance and holding his shield up at any other time.

Frieza is also a predominately ranged fighter. He prefers to spam his lasers and nuke attacks when fighting opponents. Frieza is extremely likely to nuke the planet after 17 tries even one kamikaze blast, which will then lower 17's chances of survival to slim to none.

This battle would be much fairer in the World of Void, honestly.

To add further, Frieza has no hatred for 17, so I doubt he will go for drawing the fight out through pure sadism. To add further, this is end of DBS 17 and Frieza which means they should have knowledge of eachother. Frieza knows about 17's barriers and 17 knows about...I guess Frieza's death beam and Supernova? I don't recall 17 witnessing Imprisonment Ball.
 
Frieza has sometimes fought smart, but mostly, he just uses brute force to try overwhelming his opponents, which will not work against 17. 17, on the other hand, almost never uses just brute force, unless he's much stronger than his opponents. And even then, if they have special abilites, he uses his brain to defeat them. Like, I think it was in 119? When he came up with an idea on how to defeat the bug thing. You could argue that Frieza sometimes thinks of 17-tier plans, but consistently, 17 is the much smarter fighter.

That doesn't matter. He still was cocky and didn't try to dodge the attack. Even if he had handled the energy before, it was still an extremely cocky and stupid move.

Against Aniraza, when he used his shield to move past the ball, then immediately switched to a shield attack thingy.

Why not? AP Advantage + Endurance + Homing Death Beams could overwhelm 17. Note that EoT Frieza is way faster than 17. 17, Goku and Frieza all scale to the same speed before the ToP but Goku couldn't tag Dyspo whereas Golden Frieza blitzes Dyspo.

Frieza has an AP and Speed advantage combined with ridiculous endurance. 17's own advantages won't begin to take effect for a long while, meaning Frieza is going to be damaging 17 badly before 17 can turn the tables properly. 17's one shot is kamikaze attacks, but Frieza can tank those blasts based on every single one of his endurance feats and power advantage.

That doesn't matter. He still was cocky and didn't try to dodge the attack. Even if he had handled the energy before, it was still an extremely cocky and stupid move.

Of course it matters. You tried to contradict my claim that Frieza never tanks as a show of power with an example where Frieza wasn't trying to tank. Frieza goes for shows of control or speed over shows of durability, and he had reason to believe he could control Hakai energy.

In this instance, Frieza knows full well who 17 is, what he can do and how powerful he is. He isn't going to stand still go "OHOHOHOHOHOHO I'M THE STRONGEST" and then get vaporised.

Against Aniraza, when he used his shield to move past the ball, then immediately switched to a shield attack thingy.

That's a specific attack where 17 wraps his barrier around his fist to punch through Anilaza's attack, and it clearly took him a great deal of power to pull it off. That isn't him switching between barrier usage and attacking at will, it's him using his barrier to punch through something too strong for him to survive normally, and even then he only did any damage by hitting Anilaza's weak spot.
 
But I mean Frieza isn't astronomically stronger than Frieza, if at all. 17 did do MUCH better against Jiren in 127. Also, wasn't that just God Goku?

Also, I assume you're referring to 17's sacrifice bomb in 127? I'm pretty sure that could kill Frieza, considering it blew up an attack from FP Base Jiren, when he was mad and seriously trying to knock out everyone.

But I mean he can get cocky, and 17 could possibly use that to his advantage.

The point is, he can go between shielding himself and attacking.

"Golden Frieza has an AP advantage and Homing Beams"

Like GokuSparkle said, the AP difference isn't ludicrousy high. Plus, 17 did a helluva lot better against Toppo and Jiren despite that. Frieza was thinking with his ego, not his brain, and there's no reason for Frieza to not do the same against 17. Plus he hasn't shown ridiculous endurance during the ToP, at least not as much as his Broly Movie self

"Golden Frieza blitzed Base Dyspo while Goku couldn't"

Dyspo blitzed SSJG Goku, not SSGSS Goku. There's a massive difference

"Frieza knows who 17 is and knows how powerful he is"

No he doesn't. No one in the series can sense 17's energy. Plus after tanking Sidra's Hakai energy before the ToP, he was acting like he could wallop Sidra right then and there, even though he is still clearly outmatched. About the whole "tanking Hakai" thing, he needs to be strong and durable enough in the first place to compress it like he did with Sidra's energy, so him tanking it and him compressing it isn't much different since it requires the same amount of power and resilience


You're making it sound like Frieza can slap 17 with his non existent dick and blow his head to smithereens. As much as I agree that Frieza is stronger, it isn't enough of an edge for him to pull ahead of 17
 
Like GokuSparkle said, the AP difference isn't ludicrousy high.

It actually is, when you look at the scaling

Android 17 scales to Pre-ToP Goku Blue.

Pre-ToP Frieza is much weaker than Pre-ToP Goku, considering his Golden can only match Blue despite being a much stronger transformation.

Mid-ToP Frieza is much faster than Pre-UIS Goku Blue, indicating he has grown stronger and faster over the course of the ToP.

End-ToP Frieza is comparable to post-UI SS Goku in power and speed (they both took ridiculous damage and drained ridiculous energy, so it's reasonable to claim they were equally weakened).

Post-ToP SS Goku has feats scaling him to SSG Vegeta-level in the movie and novel (the novel even notes this specifically IIRC). Goku shouldn't have grown much stronger in the short timespan between the ToP and Broly film, as he has never displayed such ridiculous growth by training in short timespans.

Therefore End ToP Frieza scales to Post-SSBE SSG Vegeta, who had also trained in the Time Chamber.

Post-UI Goku Blue >> End-ToP Golden Frieza >/= Post-UI SSG Goku > SSB Vegeta >> Post-UI SS Goku = End-ToP SSG Vegeta = End-ToP Base Frieza ~ 17

By all means, try to debate how this is incorrect when the scaling throughout the ToP and after the ToP supports it.

Plus, 17 did a helluva lot better against Toppo and Jiren despite that.

Wow. 17 did better against Jiren with Goku, Vegeta and Frieza helping? Incredible.

In regards to Toppo, 17 was nearly destroyed multiple times and had to be rescued by Frieza and Vegeta. 17 only 'did a helluva lot better' by running constantly, which ultimately would have done nothing in the long run.

Frieza was thinking with his ego, not his brain, and there's no reason for Frieza to not do the same against 17.

Yes, there is no reason. Frieza tortured Toppo out of disgust for Toppo's justice and tried to control his Hakai due to previously controlling Hakai.

He isn't going to do the same with 17, who he knows full well and is, at worst, apathetic towards.

Plus he hasn't shown ridiculous endurance during the ToP, at least not as much as his Broly Movie self

This is you downplaying Frieza. He exhausted his energy against Dyspo and then:

  • Survives and gets up from Toppo's high-power Hakai in under a minute
  • Endures dozens of attacks from Toppo, including his skull nearly being crushed and gets back up in under a minute
  • Sneak attacks Jiren, gets knocked away by two-three attacks and gets up in two minutes
His endurance and recovery are both absolutely ridiculous in the ToP.

Dyspo blitzed SSJG Goku, not SSGSS Goku. There's a massive difference

Where did I mention Dyspo blitzing Goku? Now you are just twisting my statements to make my argument sound bad. Here is Dyspo breaking his own momentum mid-air to dodge Goku's punch, despite having no way to predict Goku was going to turn Blue. And here is Frieza blitzing Dyspowith Kai even stating that Frieza is faster than Dyspo.

No he doesn't. No one in the series can sense 17's energy.

Are you joking? Frieza saw 17 fighting and even fought alongside 17. He knows 17 held up against Toppo briefly and could heavily damage a weakened Jiren. Hell, he was even present when 17 tore through Aniraza's energy blast using a barrier and shattered Aniraza's weak spot.

Plus after tanking Sidra's Hakai energy before the ToP, he was acting like he could wallop Sidra right then and there, even though he is still clearly outmatched.

He had no clue how much of Sidra's energy was given to the assassin and Sidra was acting like a cowardly, desperate, fool after witnessing Frieza and Frieza didn't even act like he was 'above' Sidra.

so him tanking it and him compressing it isn't much different since it requires the same amount of power and resilience

That's stupid beyond belief. Did Frieza control Sidra's full power? No, he didn't. Did he tank a God of Destruction's Hakai sphere? Yes, he did.

Frieza's feat of compressing Sidra's energy and tanking Toppo's Hakai are on completely different planes of scaling.

You're making it sound like Frieza can slap 17 with his non existent dick and blow his head to smithereens. As much as I agree that Frieza is stronger, it isn't enough of an edge for him to pull ahead of 17

And you are severely downplaying Frieza's capabilities and twisting my arguments to favour your side. I have plenty of evidence that Frieza is much stronger and faster by the end of the ToP then he was at the start and far less evidence that 17 grew much stronger by the end of the ToP.

Yes, this is an old thread. For some reason people keep necroposting in threads.

I'm going to drop the argument due to this thread being old and concluded, honestly didn't realize this was old. Unless someone makes a redux thread there is no reason to continue arguing about this.

So no you didn't make one point if anything everything you said was nothing but filler (ad verbousem)

1.) 17 does scale to Vegeta SSJBE he tanked an attack meant for Vegeta

2.) It's been HEAVILY established you cannot sense an Androids energy so no he cannot what you said in reguards to that didn't even make any sense

3.) Frieza when trying to straight up attack Toppo literally got slapped Toppo even called him trash, however 17 was literally showing better speed, and energy supply (since he has an infinite pool of it). He didn't at any point need help until Toppo sent the charged up Hakai at him which he didn't even do for Frieza and at that I belive you are forgetting when Frieza used his strongest move and it literally got finger flicked away...

4.) "End-ToP Frieza is comparable to post-UI SS Goku in power and speed (they both took ridiculous damage and drained ridiculous energy, so it's reasonable to claim they were equally weakened)." This is just horribly wrong.. "they both took ridiculous damage" here's what we know... Goku literally fought the tournament beginning to end, with 4 breaks and all of that being after a UI power down... The literal only times Frieza was damaged was when fighting Jiren and Toppo, (Don't say dyspo as he wasn't even relatively damaging Frieza) and Goku fought both of them at least 2x or more... And with an abundance of more evidence it's very clear Goku was much more exhausted, damaged, and more out of it, than Frieza so there's the "debunk" you requested

5.) When did Frieza "blitz" Dyspo in that fight #1, and #2 WHEN did Kai EVER state Frieza was faster than Dyspo, the whole reason Gohan sacrificed himself is because Frieza himself couldn't touch Dyspo...

6.) And I think he didn't... I can tell you don't know what tanking something means THIS (if it isn't stamped 27m35s) is tanking something Frieza was HEAVILY damaged by that attack and was taken out of Golden form because of it... SO NO he didn't tank it, he withstood it two diffrent things and it's also been proven Toppo wasn't actually using the full extent of destroyer god energy or Frieza, gone from existence, Vegeta, gone from existence, lmao Toppo literally stated he could have destroyed Frieza...

7.) "And you are severely downplaying Frieza's capabilities and twisting my arguments to favour your side. I have plenty of evidence that Frieza is much stronger and faster by the end of the ToP then he was at the start and far less evidence that 17 grew much stronger by the end of the ToP." Literally nothing you presented has proven as such...

8.) "

"This is you downplaying Frieza. He exhausted his energy against Dyspo and then:

  • Survives and gets up from Toppo's high-power Hakai in under a minute
  • Endures dozens of attacks from Toppo, including his skull nearly being crushed and gets back up in under a minute
  • Sneak attacks Jiren, gets knocked away by two-three attacks and gets up in two minutes"
1.) Never stated he exhausted his energy as he is also dead and you can't really do that when you're dead...

2.) No it wasn't a "high-power" Hakai it was stated low enough to where it didn't kill him...

3.) And? So did 17 and Vegeta...

3.) "Sneak attacks Jiren," Not really an endurance feat, and "get's knocked away by two-three attacks and gets up in two minutes" LMAO gotta be kidding me 17 Held back a blast that was meant to knock him, Vegeta and Goku off stage, tanked an attack meant for Vegeta BE and didn't need "two minutes" to recover (something Frieza doesn't in fact scale to), Literally punched fist to cuffs with an enraged Jiren and was the first person to actually "harm" Jiren in the T.O.P... lol that was just hillarious...

9.) No it's literally on his profile he's a ******, he was torturing everyone he fought who he was stronger than, and again you aren't making a point with this, he would almost certaintly drag out the fight with 17 because why? HE ALWAYS DOES (Jiren, Goku, Vegeta, Toppo, and Piccolo are proof of this)

TL:DR: You haven't proved nothing, you nitpicked stuff that overall doesn't matter and didn't make sense, honestly I'm gonna go ahead and say 17 wins and no one can prove otherwise as 17 has been shown comparable strength with Vegeta SSJBE, and you cannot prove the same for Frieza in this instance...
 
Also I'm gonna go ahead and ask that you not reply with un-supported evidence because for one I have a feeling you're gonna say something like "You can tire out when you're dead" when it has been displayed with ssj3 you can't you CAN get harmed and damaged but not "exhausted/tired"

You also said 17 didn't improve much during the T.O.P, which was pretty funny to me because you were the same one claiming downplay but didn't look at the fights 17 had compared to Frieza and overall 17 isn't just being called the M.V.P as a meme and he is much more impressive in those reguards

And lastly really don't reply to that scaling you tried to do, because GF doesn't scale to UIO 2 Goku, whereas A17 theoretically can via scaling to SSJB KKx20 Goku and SSJBE Vegeta, and yes I'm really saying that and yes it is supported


So again TL:DR: Make sure if you reply against me you have evidence because I'll be fact checking you...
