I know the series has heavily shifted to being mostly a two-man show (Goku and Vegeta) with a bit of green man and nerdboy mixed in but I feel like Tien should have kept up with the main fighters. I get Yamcha falling off. He is better as comedic relief at this point but I think Tien was always a solid fighter. I preferred him over Krillin but I get why they kept Krillin around for more of the main fights and story points cause he was Goku's best friend. Still though, Tien deserves better. I think at some point they should find a way to work him back in, to at least be on the same level (story-wise) as Piccolo. Not sure how they would do it though.
It is worth noting I am not caught up with the manga so for all I know they did implement him back in more after the ToP. I hope this is the case.
