A Ph D in boar science, of course. He developed the boar atom model, after all.

Play the XV 1 story first. 2's story is derivitive, but does not capture enough of 1 to completely replace it.
No matter what build you make, you can't go wrong with raising basic attack because unless you're a pure spammer you will be doing basic combos a lot (as is the nature of fighting games).
In harder battles using hit and run tactics works best, when you're outnumbered things can go south really quickly if you stay still long enough for them to gang up on you
2's gameplay is waaay smoother than 1, but I'm not sure if the Switch version of XV 1's story uses the XV 2 engine.

I don't know if you can just play XV 1's story right off the bat. From what I've heard you have to make progress in 2's story before it becomes unlocked, and stuff. Though it does use 2's engine.
Thank you, by the way. I'll take those into consideration.

You cannot firmly grasp the true form of Squidward's technique!You know it just now occurred to me that a giant, immovable, sentient rock would be overpowered in this tournament. They can't get pushed out of the ring and if they get blown up, then that counts as killing and they're disqualified.

This song needs more love.How would said immovable rock even get to the arena?
Do we actually know for sure what's up with the invisibugs? The original datamining of Damon's profile said that they can turn invisible and camouflage, someone else said that they're unseen because they're underground, and a lot of people are saying that they can't be seen because they're actually ant-sized, yet I haven't seen a source for either of the latter two claims.
I'm thinking 17 is next (or at least, may go before 18), because he's already had a focus episode (where 18 was a secondary part of Krilin's focus episode) - and the tournament's very episodic nature has been reliant on a "focus episode, followed by knockout or otherwise incapacitation" formula for both important antagonists and especially for the heroes. It has a habit of discarding secondary characters after getting a momentary show out of them.
Though that, of course, doesn't preclude the possibility that she simply gets a focus episode and then gets knocked out between now and 17's inevitable knockout.

I'd hate the idea of 17 and 18 being knocked out. Their unlimited stamina should give them a huge advantage...then again, Jiren has been conserving Ki this whole time, and he's more powerful than both twins so I guess it doesn't mean much when the power gap is that big.
One Strip! One Strip!Well... unlimited ki doesn't mean unlimited strength. They can still get knocked out by a stronger opponent (or by an opponent with a good enough sneak attack, in the case of 18's slip up earlier). They're perpetual motion machines, but they still have a definite output level - though that level can be trained to be higher now.
Like if you had a 9V battery that could somehow run for eternity. You'd never need to stop powering things with it, but in the end it would still be a 9V battery.

The idea is that after 18 grueling frieza-minutes of fighting a lot of the fighters will have used up a bunch of their power, while the androids are still at full strength, so they'd have the advantage now even if they didn't initially (except against Jiren, who has opted to stand around instead of fight).
I would say "Dragon Ball doesn't work that way" buuuuuut this is Super and it works whatever way it wants to, everything else, including itself, be damned.
Let the joy of love give you an answer! Check out my book!The problem with Goku staying in play after Jiren is because it makes him a Story-Breaker Power. Where's the tension when he's by far the strongest fighter? Well, besides those two hidden Universe 4 fighters being even stronger. Which means that Jiren is either going to exhaust most of his power and be a more reasonable SSB tier, or its a double K.O
With Frieza, I would like to point out how absurdly strong he could become and why Goku is an absolutely moron if he honors the agreement. In four months of not very intense training Frieza goes from 120 million power level to equal to Goku's new god essence base in his base. For comparison, Goku and Vegeta are about the same strength. Base Vegeta in the filler Potafu Arc owned SSJ 3 Gotenks. Goten and Trunks probably haven't gotten much stronger since the Buu Arc since they don't train. SSJ 3 Gotenks surpasses base Super Buu.
This means that when fighting Goku, his base is at least Super Buu. I don't know the exact difference, but it's clearly a lot. I am convinced that if Frieza trained his entire life, he would surpass Beerus. I'm pretty sure he could surpass Beerus now with god aura and his own equivalent to Super Saiyan Blue. Platinum Frieza, maybe?
Don't even get me started about what this means for Cell, who has Frieza's potential combined with his father, Piccolo, Goku and Vegeta, along with some other DNA.
Why are you talking as if there are going to be other fights after Jiren? Thus far, this is being hyped up as the climax of the tournament. Why are you assuming "Okay, I beat Jiren...now to deal with those other 20 people."
True enough, they could through a curve ball in, but what you talking about does not sound like a scenario I think anyone else is expecting.
And I'm really not sure what the point of the rest of your post was. What you think the characters can get stronger and that some have been underutilized? Okay then?

I also wonder if we'll ever learn what Dr. Rota's powers are.
