What If Piccolo Killed Frieza On Namek? 

This was one of your best "what if" segments yet. Good job qaaman

This is actually one of the best What If outcomes of them all given how many usually end up in disaster.

cool to listen to OG Qaaman from around the time when I started to watch his content 😀

The Piccolo timeline. He becomes the main character. I like it.

when piccolo told vegeta to shut up that was a thug life

I have a thought, it shouldn't change too much, but wouldn't Piccolo train intensely the whole time just because he would be the main protector of earth? Since Piccolo has been developing protective traits, especially towards Gohan it would make sense that he would not only take Gohan after Goku died, but also train intensely with Gohan the whole time. That makes me think that Gohan would grow stronger much faster then when Goku was around because he wouldn't let Chi-Chi get in the way. Also, you forgot Fortune Teller Baba's ability to bring people back from the dead for a day. How would that factor into it? Could that be used to bring a Namakian back to Teach Piccolo how to make new dragon balls for sure?

This is Qaaman's Dream, For Piccolo to be the Main Character LOL

What if vegeta killed 2nd form cell and never gave him the chance to absorb 18?

Ah, piccolo. Such a great tactical mind that he can recognize vegeta was destined to fuck up.

as a piccolo fan this sounds amazing

Nice video, man. This definitely was an interesting topic to say.

What if Goku and Vegeta stayed as Vegito? Or What if Krillin killed Frieza with Kienzan?

and after all of that Piccolo would finally take over the world........Or would that desire still disappear for no god damn reason

damn it woulda been better if this happened

anyone else hear him say king piccolo?

I have a question, what if Trunks didn't show up to fight frieza

what i like about this is that it's very accurate to what would probably happen according to the manga and anime, instead of the author of the video just coming up with anything that sounds cool, which happens with most of these what if videos

More importantly, why didn't krillin kill frieza after using the solar flare. he already proved that his kienzan could harm frieza. So why did they not have frieza get cut in half by krillin?

Man Piccolo just fell hard after the frieza saga

Piccolo being the strongest? I give my full support! I mean some of the stuff that happens I wouldn't like too much, like no Android 18. Even if Piccolo wasn't the strongest, I mean I just think his power is over looked and everything so yea.

Qaamans Land Here are some things I hope you cover. 1: what if Goku tried to finish off Perfect Cell on his own, without bringing Gohan in. 2: what if Trunks somehow turned Super Saiyan before Gohan died and then they fought the androids. 3: what would have happened if Vegeta didn't turn into a great ape in his fight against Goku? 4: what if Krillin killed Vegeta on earth, with Yajirobe's sword 5: what if Goku never had the heart virus and was able to help fight the androids? 6: what if Krillin accidentally killed Vegeta on Namek when he blew a hole in his chest?

the show would have been way less ridiculous and pretty interesting this way.

What if Vegeta never killed Nappa?

This video could also be called: Why to many super saiyans on one planet are a walking jinx.

I really like this video because you thought about everything. The fact that you took Android 16 and Cell out of the equation because Goku had died like he was supposed to was a good move. Anyways, you have a great mind for these what-if videos and I'm happy you've taken the time to make them. Keep it up, Qaaman! :D

This is technicaly a good outcome unless Zeno erases all universes which i don't think he would remember and aside of that ultimatum this is peace

I always thought about this topic. Perhapsingly Piccolo would have been king shit on the street and Vegetard would be foucusing his power towards destorying Picklchode instead of Gayku because Friezar enslaved the Saiyans for like 185198519658148975641986541658941 years so Vegetard would get mad that he didn't get to kill Friezar and Picklchode would've taken the the throne of big booty bitches (CHICHI & Oolong)

Title of the video: What if Piccolo killed Frieza in his second form? How I read it: What killed Frieza if in his Piccolo second form?

Qaaman's funny line:because vageta killed nameks me:hahahahahaha!!! little brother: wait there's more than one? me:queue face palm!

I'm betting Piccolo would fight Vegeta, but not kill him. Piccolo has changed so much and took a lot of teaching from Goku, gohan, and of course the influence of Nail. He would defeat Vegeta, but not kill Vegeta.

What if Freeza killed everyone in his 3rd form?

I think the Namekians would be safe. With what we know now with ROF, New Namek is extremely well hidden.

This is stupid, Piccolo would have no need to fuse with kami to beat king cold

I thought the Super Sonic Warriors, Piccolo What ifs story was how this woulda been taken.

Good video--well thought out and informative! I've always been a sucker for these "What if?" scenarios. I'd like to try to think of some, although I wouldn't be surprised if others had asked or tackled these questions before. 1. What if King Vegeta had become a Super Saiyain (prior to his planet being destroyed by Freeza)? 2. What if Nappa had killed Gohan before Goku arrived? 3. What if Cell had simply eliminated the Z-Fighters upon reaching perfection (no Cell Games)? 4. What if Goku's mind-altering injury as a baby did not happen? Or, conversely, what if it had been fatal? 5. What if Goku had been given a senzu bean directly after his first fight with Vegeta, instead of convalescing in the hospital for weeks? 6. What if Goku had survived the battle with Radditz and Piccolo had died, instead of the other way around? 7. What if Dr. Briefs, and not Dr. Gero, was recruited by the Red Ribbon Army? The answers to a few of these kind of jump out at me (In #6, for instance, it would probably mean the Saiyans wouldn't have come to Earth, making what happens between then and the arrival of the Androids/Cell paramount), but I'd like to hear the opinions of the experts as well!

Love your videos Qaaman. You have the best 'What If' narrations on RU-vid and leave no stones unturned. Follower for life right here.

Why couldn't bulma come back and give goku a medicine so he dosent die from a heart disease

Good analysis. Very good coverage on facts that I myself would forget, such as Picollo fighting the weaker androids due to Trunks not butterfly effecting everything.

What if DBZ Didn't exist as a series at all!? What would the fans be doing instead? :o

Piccolo killing Frieza and taking on Vegeta would've kicked ass actually

Actually, I think Kami and Piccolo would have only fused as a last resort; Like, Everyone is dead and King Cold is about to blow the planet up. I think Goku would have gone Super Saiyan during THAT fight, and ultimately overpowered Cold. After that, he would have died from the heart virus, and we would have spiraled down into bad end.

Glanced at the name of this video... Thought it was just click bait. Checked it out and was pleasantly surprised to see a thoughtful and intriguing piece. Very well done!

I have one thing to say. What if he didn't kill vegeta because krillin and gohan talked him out of it? The reason why is because he saved their lives on multiple occasions and would say he changed. And what would happen then? Because piccolo wouldn't fuse with kami until after the fight with the androids or in the 3 year time span. And vegeta, goku, and gohan could eventually learn super saiyan because of the future timeline.

I've really enjoyed following your train of thoughts on this topic and I must say that I like the what-if scenario with a timeline revolving entirely on Piccolo ... things would have probably not escalated that much as you pointed out, being him much more reliable and straight-forward thinking than the sayians!

Thanks, Qaaman! You're what if videos are always awesome!

Very interesting. This is one of your BEST "what ifs" by far Quaaman. Good question by DBnation.

Nameks? Vegeta killed multiple planets full of Namekians? Come on man, they're Namekians..

I always find myself intensely interested in these what if scenarios since it makes the story unfolding in circumstances we're not used to thinking about, as if the story was progressing the wrong way and the Z fighters were just surviving through the most miniscule of hopes for their abilities to survive each threat that comes. It's like the past and future connecting together, with the past having a dangerous cloud over their heads at all times simply because it meant their doom being written down the moment things didn't turn out the way it was supposed to. How small a change and such great an impact. Listening to your story, I (as always) was desperately hoping beyond hope that the Z fighters would survive and yet....it couldn't be so. It's always the Buu saga that breaks the backs of everyone and it irritates me each and every time.....makes me sad actually when I hear it. Fantastic video and I've got another one for you. Do: What if Cell became a good guy? Just a thought for talk really. Or how would Gohan dealing with the Majin Vegeta saga with Goku dead would work?

The real question was what if vegeta killed captain ginyu in goku body

This video shows how much potential piccolo could've had if they hadn't pushed him to the side later on. piccolo is on my top 3 favorites and I would've like to see him rise as much as other person would've loved to see vegeta rise to the top as well. all in all, great theory and good points on how the outcome could've happen.

Few sugestions for new videos -What if picollo fused with guru before he dies on earth? -What if the namekians stayed on earth instead of going to new namek? -What if vegetto never defused?(already seen it on DBM but i want your opinion) -What if vegeta and nappa went to namek after being damaged on earth?(that means vegeta didn`t kill nappa)

Great video as always. Enjoyed this topic on piccolo as he is quite an overlooked power player in dbz and its great to have another insight into his character.

These are hands down your best videos so please make more!

Small thing to add... when future Trunks fight the androids in the main timeline, he said that the androids from his timeline were quite weaker... After the discovery of the time machine and cell's cocoon they made the hypothesis that the coming of cell in the past changed the events and made the androids way stronger. So after the fusion with Kami, Piccolo would most probably have been able to beat the androids without the need of training in the hyperbolic time chamber

I got an theory idea/question: What if the other dead Z Fighters, including Piccolo, managed to learn Kaioken and/or Spirit Bomb from King Kai before Gohan, Krillin and Dende wished for Piccolo to come back to life during the Namek Saga?

i hate timezones. i almost missed this. and it was a good one. This was one of your absolute best what if's.

I've wondered myself what if Piccolo had managed to kill second form Frieza. Thanks for doing the vid.

Woah wait what. Usually Qaamans Land videos sound like shit but this has REALLY good audio and your voice sounds so good. Better mic I guess? Good investment. It's really made your content improve a lot.

I personally think that since Piccolo is smart enough to know when he's outmatched that he would go after Babidi while asking the others to cover him. Babidi would be killed and Dabura would be free from the mind-control. It's a slim chance he would be able to reach Babidi either way. But with Dragon Ball Super stating that Future Trunks was able to beat Dabura with minimal help from Supreme Kai,I believe Gohan,if he was able to go Super Saiyan,would be able to hold his own against Dabura with the help of Krillin and the others. Also adding in if Piccolo was killed by Dabura Gohan would most likely go into rage and unlock his Super Saiyan 2 form due to his connection with Piccolo and I do think Gohan would be able to defeat him. (I would also add in Goku returning to Earth for the tournament and how he would assist in the fight but this has all ready become lengthy as it is.)

Awesome video! I like how detailed your footage is and how high quality your videos are. Nice topic, nice video, keep up the great work can't wait to see more of your videos without you I wouldn't be making videos today.

The only thing i dissagree with is the killing of Vegeta, its possible Gohan would've persuaded Piccolo to let him live but if Vegeta were to be himself and piss Piccolo off he would've killed him. Thats all great video as always

Without Frieza, King Cold would have just destroyed earth from a distance. He stated that was his intention, but Frieza wanted it to be personal.

so you basically make a video about the best DBZ character and how he gets ONE win and basically screws over the entire series. nice to know i'm so loved

"fight without his weighted clothing" Let's face it. At that point those weights were kind of pointless.

What would happen if gohan continued to train after the cell saga

I really enjoyed this piece and thought it was well reasoned, it is also nice to know I'm not the only one who uses that particular guide, though with it in mind and Gohan's lack of passion for fighting I'm not sure he'd end up as the strongest or even necessarily second strongest without strong motivation.

great video, haven't watched your videos in a while and I immediately noticed your better sound quality and this awesome style with the cinema, looks really great :D

That was pretty good. This is non-Dragon Ball related, but can you do a what-if theory if Lelouch never used his Geass on Euphemia?

I loved this discussion! Thanks Qaaman.

Awesome video! Well thought out, clear to understand and very interesting to watch!! Deserves a lot of praise!! :D

I have an idea. What if Krillin killed Vegeta - before Goku arrives on at the scene, and Nappa still being alive. Unlikely but possible.

Awesome video qaaman. I know you enjoyed talking about piccolo and making him the hero XD

Hypothetically speaking, if Future Gohan arrived to this time-line with the assistance of Bulma's time machine, couldn't Piccolo use that to travel to a time-line where Namek still exists and request a Dragon Clan Namekian from there to serve as the creator for new Dragon Balls?

at 4:46, is i-is that tien !?

Speaking of Piccolo, what would happen if Piccolo didn't die in the Sayian Saga. Kami could meet Goku half way down Snake Road and Goku could arrive at the Sayians before Piccolo died.

Please do more what if scenarios like this we miss them Qaaman

how did you not add fun fact at 1:35 the conversation between piccolo and vegeta is the same voice actor - chris sabat

Hey one flaw. No one would have a clue about the SSJ legend if vegeta is dead. Because he is the one who told everyone bout the SSJ legend

Awesome video. One other option could have been, that the Z fighters gathered the dragon balls after hearing the new from King Kai, and used them to ressurect the people on Planet Namek (or just simply revived the people who were killed by King Cold), as a plan B, so if they had to refuse, they had still dragon balls and if something would have happen, they could ask King Kai to ask the Namekians to ressurect people on Earth (or send Dende as Kami).

I cannot get over how similar piccolo and margin buu are, Its like they have originated from the same idea

I have been waiting for this one for quite awhile. :)

TIMELINE 1 Corrections: 4:44 - I believe the new Grand Elder & Dende at least & maybe some other Namekians would escape onto a space ship just before Namek blew up & they would head straight for Earth. I say this because it originally took at least an hour for Namek to blow up once Frieza destroyed the core. Also, Frieza did mention to Goku that Goku could've escaped undetected during the struggle rather then continue to fight but Goku no don't refused cause he wasn't afraid. This implies that some Namekians could escape King Cold's Wrath! If they did then King Cold would not be delayed in his arrival on Earth if he had detected the escapees. Even though he could destroy them in space, he would decide to pursue them & he would discover Earth that way. King Kai would still inform the Z-Fighters about King Cold's approach but I believe King Cold would show up sooner then he originally did if he pursued the New Grand Elder in space. This would put an even further strain on the Z-fighters since King Cold would be showing up faster then expected, I would say AGE 764 but 1 month later since the Namekian Star Cruiser would take 1 month to travel from Namek to Earth. So far everything else you said checks out until 7:14. Why? Because they would be able to restore the Dragon Balls in Timeline 1 since Dende & the New Grand Elder fled to Earth with their Dragon Balls. Dende would revitalise the Earth Dragon Balls & become Earth's new guardian! Namek would be restored & the dead Namekians revived due to Porunga being alive. Everything pretty much checks out exactly how you said it would after that up till the Buu Saga. Babidi & his henchmen would still come to Earth because Buu's cocoon was on the planet & they needed to collect him before unleashing him. They would use the Tournament as a way to gather energy just like in the original series but this time it's Piccolo that would be impaled rather than Gohan because Gohan would've only been a SS1 & much weaker & Piccolo was the 1 who killed both Androids 17 & 18! Gohan might've helped but then again Chi-Chi might prevent him from fighting/training & Piccolo wouldn't need him anyway. Gohan would be a fighter in the Buu Saga though because of the Tournament. So Gohan, Krillin, Tien & Chaotsu would follow Kabito to Babidi's ship while Piccolo & Kaioshin are close behind. Yes, it was Kaioshin that stayed & healed Piccolo rather than Kabito since Piccolo fought Kaioshin in the Tournament. Nobody would've cared much if Piccolo was stabbed instead of Gohan so nobody would try to rush out to save him. Videl would win the Tournament for the record. Dabura would turn Krillin & someone other than Piccolo to stone. I would guess Chaotsu since he would be worthless anyway. Who fights against Pui-Pui? I would say Tien because he was the weakest of the 3 Z-Fighters who went inside. Tien would win though & then they fight Yakon, this time it's Gohan's turn because we know he wouldn't stand a chance against Dabura. He kills Yakon in the same way Goku did & then we cut to the fight with Dabura. Piccolo would take him on since he's the strongest of the 3 & cause he hates Dabura the most! He would win unless Babidi detected the former evil inside him & turned him into Majin Piccolo! Tien would fight Majin Piccolo due to them being at odds in Dragon Ball. This leaves Gohan with Kaioshin to fight Babidi & Dabura! In either divergence, both Babidi & Dabura are killed by Piccolo in the 1st & Kaioshin in the 2nd. Buu would never hatch & his cocoon would be captured by the Kais. Then we go to either Super Dragon Ball or Dragon Ball GT! Super Dragon Ball: Starting with Battle of Gods, Beerus would awaken only to discover Goku & Vegeta are dead & the only Saiyan left is Gohan. He would fall under the belief that Gohan would be the Super Saiyan God that he dreamed of & would challenge Gohan. But let's say Yamcha persuaded him (due to King Kai warning him of Beerus since Yamcha would marry Bulma since Vegeta is dead) to kick back & enjoy the Bulma's party. Since Majin Buu doesn't exist, Beerus wouldn't destroy the Earth but wouldn't be friends with the Z-Fighters either for boring him. Frieza's Resurrection would still happen but unless Piccolo & Gohan got much stronger, the Earth is doomed! Frieza would be disappointed to find out that Goku & Vegeta are dead already & would then exact his revenge mainly on Gohan for being a Super Saiyan, the last of them all in fact besides Pan. It wouldn't matter if Beerus showed up & saved the remaining Z-Fighters from Earth's destruction since they wouldn't be able to stop frieza anyway! If they did then I don't know what happens next since I didn't watch the show yet. Dragon Ball GT: I doubt the Z-fighters would go into space to collect the Black Star Dragon Balls since the negative energy wouldn't be enough to unleash the Shadow Dragons since the Red Star Balls were used less. Even if they still went into space, who would go after the Balls with Pan? Not Trunks since he wouldn't be a saiyan while Goku is still dead & Piccolo or Tien might not be interested. Gohan would be too busy & weak & so the only person I could think of is Krillin except he's too old. Not to mention, Pilaf wouldn't screw up his wish with Black Star Balls since Goku is dead. I didn't really watch the show because I gave up on it when it was new. So if Piccolo beat the Androids originally, then either Earth is destroyed or there is World Peace in the end depending on which show happened but since we know GT is non-canon, then Earth is screwed big time! But Let's Assume Piccolo fought & died against the Androids, This would mean Krillan or Yamcha would fight next since Krillan was the 1st Z-fighter to fight them after Piccolo & Vegeta in GFT but Yamcha was the 1st after Piccolo & Vegeta in the HOT movie. Also, Yamcha was the 1st to find the Androids in Timelines 2 & 4 in the original anime/manga & nearly died because of it! So my guess is that Yamcha fought them 1st after Piccolo's death in this alternate Timeline 1 & he ended up dead! But it doesn't matter which of the 2 fights 1st for they'll both die. The question is, who fought next? I would say Tien would because he fought right after Yamcha in the HOT special even though he fought before Yamcha in GFT. He would die also along with Chaotsu & then Krillin would finally meet his end along with Yadrobi. So Gohan would go back to the past in the time machine! TIMELINE 2: Future Gohan would travel to the unseen timeline all the way to the point King Cold arrived on Earth! His presence would prevent Piccolo from fusing with Kami & thus Future Gohan either killed King Cold by himself or with help from Goku & Piccolo. Let's say he did it with their help & so Goku would turn Super Saiyan in the fight with King Cold & so Future Gohan wouldn't have to teach him to become a Super Saiyan. Future Gohan would give Goku the medicine & then returns to the future. The 3 year gap expires & the Z-Fighters come across Androids 19 & 20. Future Gohan would show up & save Goku from Android 19, Android 19 would die easily & then Piccolo would hunt down Android 20 for zapping him! Android 20 unleashes 16, 17 & 18 & is killed by them afterwards, the Z-Fighters then fight the 3 Androids but end up losing. They would then go to the hyperbolic time chamber & train there for 1 day, I would say Piccolo & Future Gohan would go in 1st & together for the record. The 2 of them would then exit & fight the 3 Androids while Krillin & Tien went in next. Piccolo would fight Android 17 while Future Gohan would fight Android 18 while Android 16 would just stand & watch. Both Androids would be destroyed & it's possible Android 16 might beg them to allow him to fight Goku once he healed from the Heart Virus, but I doubt they would spare him especially Future Gohan. So then once he recovers, Goku would take Kid Gohan into the Time Chamber to train! Future Gohan returns back to Timeline 1 & would destroy the Androids there. H would then plan a trip to Timeline 3 to prevent Gero from unleashing the Androids before they were finished being programmed. But Cell kills him & steals the machine & he goes to Timeline 3 instead. TIMELINE 3: Everything would happen exactly like it did in Timeline 1 excepting for Piccolo beating the Androids the 1st time of course. Only Future Cell makes a slight difference. According to Xenoverse, Future Cell was actually present at the 1st battle between the Androids & Future Trunks but watch from a distance. I would say he would interrupt a fight between Future Gohan & the Androids in an attempt to absorb them. He would absorb the Androids & become Perfect Cell but Future Gohan escapes. He then goes into the Time Machine & Time Travel to Timeline 4!

Every time I see something like this my mind always goes to one answer ,NO SUPER SAYION.

If King Kai would bend the rules more often, he would've communicated with the Namekians either directly, or via Piccolo/Kami to telepathically contact them, and order them to use their Dragon Balls to wish all Namekians to Earth temporarily before King Cold arrived.

I have quite the question for you, maybe even a topic for video? What if Frieza, because of his knowledge of Majin Buu and Beerus he gained from his father, had trained his body to his max potential before the events of Dragon Ball and how would that effect the whole series?

piccolo should be able to create new dragon balls . he has the power level of an entire warrior clan and the intelligence and techniques of a dragon clan member . there's no reason he can't do it considering how young Dendi was yet he was able to make functioning dragon balls

I think you left out the part where Future Cell shows up to absorb the androids. In the main timeline he's encountered just after Piccolo fuses with Kami, however if Piccolo was in the Hyperbolic Time Chamber after fighting the Androids the first time, would he finish training in time to prevent Cell from absorbing the Androids? If not then it's pretty safe to say Piccolo, even after the HTT training would lose to Perfect Cell, and MAYBE Semi-Perfect Cell, depending how much stronger the HTT training made Piccolo.

This would be, by far, the coolest alternate universe that could happen. Piccolo pwns everything.

I love ur videos so much and u also give a good explanation of what would happen if certain things didn't took place in some episodes.

Everytime a DBZ character hypothetically makes a logical decision it leads to disaster. Lol

this pretty much sums it up perfectly, I wonder if a super nakian God is a thing if beerus was interested to fight piccolo instead...

Beerus: I have a proposition that in exactly 42 years a super namekian god will arise to challenge me.

I had to come back to this video again because I love this topic. Had Piccolo killed Frieza, King Cold's Saga could've been the plots of both Cooler movies tbh

Don't forget Piccolo has the ability to make more nameks as Dende stated Guru spit eggs out to make more Nameks that are on there today.

I like it! The only thing I would note, is that Dr. Gero probably altered his androids to be stronger in response to the Z fighters' rapid growth during that three year period. If they were not training to fight an enemy that they were consequently not warned about, it all depends how intense the fight was between piccolo and king cold. If it was over quickly, without piccolo revealing the extent of his power, I posit that the androids would be EVEN WEAKER; especially because Goku wouldn't have achieved super saiyan by the time the virus killed him (most likely, without a threat anyway)

Yay for messing with the Timeline!!! XD (Amazing work btw! Tytyty for the rockin-hoppin vid! =D)

I got to say this was a really good one very interesting.

I don't actually think Piccolo removing his weighted training armor would help very much when you get right down to it. Think about it; his armor probably weighs about 100 kg., give or take, and he had been training with it for quite some time by this point in the series. With that in mind, he was probably so strong that removing his armor just to be lighter would probably have as much an effect as removing ordinary clothes (e.g. a belted tunic) from your inventory in Skyrim.

Good ol what if videos. Are you gonna make more?

Do you not think that King Cold would have just destroyed Earth from space? I remember him wanting to but Mecha-Frieza insisted on going onto the planet to see the fear on their faces or to terrorise them or something like that, other than that I loved this video and found it really interesting!
