Could Piccolo have pulled it off?

Could he have actually succeeded in taking out 17, preventing Cell from ever completing his evolution? If so would he still have enough in the tank to take care of 18? 16 may or may not have gotten involved although if Piccolo had gotten through 17 and 18, based on 16's nature he'll likely KO Piccolo instead of killing him.

I think the only way he could've won is by using the Light Grenade or SBC, but those require charging up, which I think 17 would know better than to wait for. He's cocky, but not that cocky.

I highly doubt it, 18 would team up on him if 17 really looked like he was starting to lose, just like they did Gohan. I had a feeling Piccolo was saving his Light Grenade for 17 but he had to use it on Cell, i think he possibly could have won on his own however.

If that fight would have continued, Piccolo would have ended up catching #17 with a powerful ki attack. #17 almost died two good times in that fight.

yes, but only if he can become a trained super saiyan because at his current state his best is defeating frieza first form. (17 beats frieza final form 100%)

Not sure what you mean? Piccolo that fought 17 was leagues above 100% Freeza. You can argue that Piccolo that defeated Gero could take 100% Freeza.

Is it possible? Yep! Absolutely! Piccolo was in with a chance the entire fight. And like it was pointed out, he almost got the better of 17 a couple of times. But the key word here is almost! 17 had an answer for everything piccolo dished out. IMO if it came down to the wire with no interruptions 17 would have eventually ran piccolo tired. Sure piccolo had the light grenade up his sleeve but do you really think he could get 17 still for long enough to execute the attack? Doubtful. 17 isn't going to allow himself to be killed. 17 would eventually win! Don't forget their powers are equal so it really comes down to who can absorb the most punishment. 17 is known to have infinite stamina. Piccolo is not. The green machine eventually runs out of fuel.

17's infinite stamina may be a problem for Piccolo. Piccolo was already starting to fatigue and who knows if one of his ultimate special attacks could get him the win or not. . .

I'd side with Piccolo. Slightly stronger IMO, better skilled, tactically/strategically superior, and isn't completely new to fighting with the odds stacked against him. I feel that 17 would've made a mistake before Piccolo ran out of energy. 18 however beats the sh*t out of a weakened him for revenge.

Yeah that close range a*** Light Grenade that Piccolo dropped on Cell? I feel like that would have destroyed 17. Or at least actually damaged him to the point where he'd shut down.

But do you think piccolo could have landed it? This was energy he was saving for 18 and let's not forget, he was hoping for the hellzone to finish 17 off.

Like I said earlier, I can't imagine 17 standing still while piccolo charges the attack and then let's it fire. 17 would try to stop him.

I thought he blasted Cell with it pretty effectively. That and 17 and 18 were flabbergasted. Even if he could react, 17 implicated he couldn't respond to that one. Again, without any senzu or back up in sight, 18 would have put Piccolo under (Or did the same thing Cell did, because plot armor) but I think he could have taken 17 out.

Besides the obvious power equaliser, I suspect the reason why #17 was able to stand his ground so effectively against Piccolo had to do with the extensive research made on everyone Goku ever encountered following the Red Ribbon arc. Dr Gero's knowledge pool would extend to fights that Piccolo had during the 23rd tournament and Saiyan arcs. So if we assume he had that information inserted into his cyborgs' minds, it means #17 would have an in-depth understanding of Piccolo's fighting style and techniques.

The only way I could see Piccolo winning is if he successfully hit #17 with the Light Grenade. Even if by some miracle it worked, he would be easy pickings for #18 who would no doubt be furious at the loss of her brother and out for blood.

Hmm! To play devils advocate (as i agree that piccolo would lose) what would gero's research say about kamiccolo? This is more than piccolo we're talking about, it was an obvious data discrepancy for 16 to feel "two power levels".. maybe piccolo fused with kami (not to mention nails influence) would be enough to scramble the data enough to make an enigmatic problem for the androids?

Just a thought, but either way I think it ultimately ends in piccolo going down to 17. It's as you said, it would take a miracle for piccolo to get 17 with that shot. Given the fact he was nearly finished by an inferior attack I can't imagine 17 having a game of solitaire while he waits for piccolo to charge up the light grenade.
