Its not hinted he's talking about them as whole either.

Gohan: “You’re very gifted at grappling too, Goten! You really surprised me! I hadn’t known you were that good! If you train well, maybe you’ll be able to enter the Tenkaichi Budoukai too!”

Sounds as if he's talking about SSJ Goten.

No, his tone is about Goten is general, not in one specific form. I am going to pull out my elitism side here and say: You are wrong.

Its not official. Its goes from x50 then said to decrease to x10 in an interview and finally shown to be either x2 or x3 threw statements. Officially what is said is Base Saiyans > Piccolo. That's not a plot hole.
Incorrect. It was never said that the multiplier was decreased to 10x, you are absolutely making that up. All that was said was that Toriyama initially thought of SSJ as a 10x boost, but it never became official. Also your own 2-3x multiplier is not official either.

Gohan wants to win, but he actually says he may not win. Nowhere does gohan say he will win the tournament.

Piccolo knew nothing of the no ssj rule. He though he would be facing ssj's at the tournament. He still entered. By your logic piccolo>ssj gohan.

Vegeta did not even know piccolo was participating in the tournament when he agreed to the no ssj rule. For all you know, he did change his mind about the no ssj rulewhen he saw piccolo there.

The no ssj is not some unbreakable law. Goten, trunks and Mr. No ssj himself broke the rule. I don't see why vegeta would not if faced against piccolo or 18

He says he wants to win. Then says he needs to train and later brings about the no SSJ rule. Gohan ~ Piccolo at the very least.

direct statement that base gohan goku and vegeta are stronger than piccolo?

Chapter: 447 (DBZ 253), P11.4
Context: talking about how Yamu and Spopovitch were followed by Goku and co.
Babidi: “Get rid of the trash besides those 3 [Goku, Gohan, Vegeta], then return to the spaceship right away. That way, I think those 3 will fly into a rage and follow you inside for sure.”

krillin, piccolo, and kibito were trash. goku, gohan and vegeta were not.

that's a clear statement as to who is stronger than who.
list of canon sources:

the DB manga, and the Dr. Slump manga as it applies to the crossover during the rra saga.

list of non canon sources:

everything else, regardless of origin, format, or quality.

for those that blindly follow word of god

Chapter: 451 (DBZ 257), P3.1
Context: after Babidi measures Super Saiyan Goku's energy as 3,000 kiri
Babidi: "...Is this measuring device malfunctioning...? But if he really is 3,000 kiri... Then Yakon can't win against him... Yakon's energy is 800 kiri..."

Base Goku was a lot stronger than Yakon. So if the SSJ multiplier was x50 then how can he only be 3000 kiri while Yakon is 800 kiri. This shows that at this point the SSJ multiplier for Goku was only x2 or x3.


Its not official but implications threw gaps are saying at that moment it was x2 or x3.

How is his tone going to be different if SSJ Goten and SSJ Trunks surpass him.

I was more concerned about what you said about the 10x multiplier.

Why would he enter the tournament if he doesn't want to win?

Krillin and Android 18 still entered without wanting to win.

Krillin and 18 wanted money. Piccolo wanted to enter because he wanted to be with his friends. Let's face that. Doesn't change my opinion though.

Then he wants to just take part because we know he doesn't want the money or to win.

I'm okay with Piccolo taking the role of mentor in the last arc, and and I'm okay with him not being dependant on when it comes to fights, but I still don't think he's weaker than the Base saiyans. At the very very least I have this:

Base Goku >~ Piccolo > Base Vegeta > Base Gohan.

Could you reel me in a big fish of some proof for this one, buddy?

Emmeth pretty much sums it up for me; in a vacuum, base saiyans > Piccolo in the Boo arc makes sense, but powerscaling wise and considering his decent (offpanel) performance against Cell Juniors, I just can't put him below the base saiyans.

Piccolo (Cell games) is below 50% MSSJ Goku just want to point that out. I used to think he was around SSJ Vegeta (Cell Games) but Goku says he doesn't stand a chance against Initial Perfect Cell so I now have him around ASSJ Vegeta 1st ROAST.
