Dragon Ball: The Strongest Characters Black Frieza Can Defeat, Ranked

The conclusion of the Granolah arc in Dragon Ball Super dramatically shifted how power levels work in the series. This change came with the arrival of Black Frieza, who is easily the strongest villain Goku and Vegeta have ever fought, as he defeated them with almost no difficulty.

Because of this, fans are already calling Black Frieza the strongest non-divine being in the entire Dragon Ball universe. His incredible power now places him above most other characters, so let’s explore who he could defeat among the strongest fighters.

Jiren Would Be Erased Before He Even Got The Time To Think

An Easy Battle

  • The strongest of Universe 11

Might makes right and might alone! Without strength, we have nothing!

During the Tournament of Power, Jiren was the strongest opponent the heroes faced, and he consistently overpowered Frieza. However, if they fought now, Frieza would win easily. He’s become much stronger since the tournament ended. While we haven’t seen Jiren fight recently, so he’s probably still very powerful, Frieza in his current form would defeat the Jiren from the tournament without much difficulty.

Black Frieza Has Already Made Short Work Of Goku And Vegeta

Humiliated Divine Techniques

  • The strongest forms of the rivals

Power comes in response to a need, not a desire. You have to create that need.

Throughout Dragon Ball Super, the characters have become incredibly powerful, especially Goku and Vegeta. They both unlocked new, god-like levels of strength, but even at their peak, they were easily defeated by Frieza. With just one blow, he knocked them out of their most powerful forms. By the end of the Granolah arc, Frieza was established as the strongest being in Universe 7.

Broly And Piccolo Would Also Not Be A Problem For Black Frieza

There’s Nothing They Could Do

  • Easy pickings for the Galactic Tyrant

Sorry, I can’t hold back in this form.

Right now, the strongest characters in the series are fairly evenly matched. But Black Frieza’s recent fight with Ultra Instinct Goku and Ultra Ego Vegeta showed he’s on a completely different level – Broly and Piccolo wouldn’t stand a chance. While both are powerful, Broly is still learning to control his strength, and Piccolo’s greatest asset is his intelligence as a fighter. They’d likely fare no better against Black Frieza than Goku and Vegeta did.

Even Gohan Beast Couldn’t Put A Dent On Black Frieza

Frieza’s Too Strong

  • A battle of potential

Gohan is stronger than anyone… or so it’s said.

Many fans think Gohan’s new ‘Beast’ form makes him the strongest of the Z-Fighters, especially considering where Dragon Ball Super‘s story is heading and what creator Akira Toriyama has said about it. But this is just a guess. Even if Gohan Beast is that powerful, he still wouldn’t stand a chance against Frieza. A recent practice fight with Goku showed their power levels aren’t that different, meaning Frieza would easily defeat him.

Even Gogeta And Vegito Would Struggle Against The Villain

The Second-Strongest Mortals

  • The only ones who may pose a challenge

Our two strengths aren’t just added together, they’re significantly magnified!

It’s clear that Black Frieza is much stronger than Goku or Vegeta individually. Their only potential path to victory lies in fusing into Gogeta or Vegito, although even that isn’t guaranteed. While a fused fighter mastering a Divine Technique could surpass Black Frieza, they’ve only demonstrated Super Saiyan Blue so far, leading many fans to believe they’d ultimately lose.

Some Believe That Black Frieza May Even Surpass Beerus

Or Is As Strong

  • The strongest Destroyer

Before creation… must come Destruction!

I’ve been watching the power levels in Universe 7, and everyone considers Beerus to be the strongest God of Destruction – especially after that exhibition match. But lately, people are starting to wonder if Black Frieza might actually be stronger. He defeated Goku and Vegeta in their most powerful forms with what seemed like no effort! Beerus always seems to be a step ahead of the Saiyans, constantly pushing them to improve, but Goku and Vegeta have been getting stronger with their God forms. Seeing how easily Black Frieza handled them, it’s hard not to think the gap between them is closing, and maybe even surpassed.
