Z Fighters

I've been wanting to redo my ranking of the Dragon Team for a while. A lot of stuff has happened since the OG post and I actually missed a few characters that really should've been added. Instead of writing a paragraph for each freaking character (there's like 50 of them now), here's your stereotypical tier list.

Guidelines are the same as before:

1. To be considered a member, the character must have participated in or been involved in a battle, been to the battlefield, has contributed in a way that turned the tide of battle, the team has/could potentially call upon them again and are not one off allies.

2. I will be pulling from most (not all) of Dragon Ball including sequels and movies.

3. I will be ranking them by their feats, contributions and success rate as an individual. While their accomplishments with others will be taken into account, the bulk of their ranking will be on their individual attributes.

These are my opinions, not facts. I will try to be as unbiased as possible.

After the events of the King Piccolo Saga, we saw Goku training with Kami and Mr. Popo due to King Piccolo spawning a son - Piccolo Junior - in exchange for Kami re-activating the Dragon Balls; the Dragon Balls been used to revive everyone killed by King Piccolo and his children, including Krillin and Master Roshi.

While Goku's training was happening, the rest of the heroes - Krillin, Yamcha, Tien Shinhan and Chiaotzu - trained with Korin before carrying on their training in their own ways; not needing to train with Kami and Mr. Popo until the threat of Vegeta and Nappa some years later (Yajirobe temporarily joining them in the training but mostly spending his time eating).

However, what if Kami requested for the rest of Goku's friends to train earlier than this, just in case Piccolo Jr. proved too difficult for Goku to handle alone?

As such, we'd see Goku's friends join him on the Lookout to receive training from Kami and Mr. Popo before the 23rd World Martial Arts Tournament; this helping to increase their powers and abilities beforehand. While they'd still be behind Goku, it would increase their strength in any case.

Question is, how do you think this change would alter the remainder of Dragon Ball and later Dragon Ball Z?

Curious to see what you guys think.
