Pokemon Series:

Strongest Dueler: Kyogre. Kind of a no-brainer there.
Weakest Dueler: Pikachu. Only one in Light.

Favorite Dueler: Kyogre. Rediculous SMASH of an unusual element amuses me.
Least Favorite Dueler: Don't really have one. Pika, possibly, as I object a bit from a gameplay standpoint to having an unevolved form ranked. That's really as close as I get to a least favorite.

Favorite DL moment with this game: Writing for Typhlosion in whatever season he was in. Up against Camus and Nanaki, iirc. That was fun.
Least favorite DL moment with this game: The fact that pokemon cannot seem to champ.

Other thoughts?: I like the game in the DL a good deal. Aside from the turn-based to CTB thing, it translates very well, being basically duels in game.

Legend of Legaia: Duel Saga

strongest Dueler: Avalon
weakest Dueler: Uh...Ayne, sure.

favorite Dueler: Sharon.
least Favorite Dueler: Velna.

favorite DL moment with this game: Can't think of a standout good moment off the top of my head.
least favorite DL moment with this game: Cecil beating Sharon. Such BS.

Other thoughts?:

Pokemon Series:

Strongest Dueler: Kyogre
Weakest Dueler: Pikachu

Favorite Dueler: Mewtwo. Nod to Swampert as well.
Least Favorite Dueler: Blastoise, I guess.

Favorite DL moment with this game: Suicune run. The fact that it was foiled by FE's first heavy champ eases the blow.
Least favorite DL moment with this game: NO CHAMPS

Other thoughts?: I like the games, and I like the PKMN in the DL.

Strongest Dueler: Kyogre.

Pokemon Series:

Strongest Dueler:  Kyogre
Weakest Dueler: Pikachu, though he's a decent Light.

Favorite Dueler: Pikachu. Despite being the weakest, he makes an interesting Light, and I'm always happy to see more duellers that make Light less horrible.
Least Favorite Dueler: Gen 2 starters.

Favorite DL moment with this game: Does Pikachu being in Nyarlie's dungeon count?
Least favorite DL moment with this game: Anytime a Gen 2 starter wins a match.

Other thoughts?: I'm not a huge fan of -any- of the starters really, but the Legendaries tend to be really fun duellers. Also, the Legendaries have the most 'plot' so I think they make better write-up fodder. I want to see Ash get ranked and duke it out with Yuna in Godlike.

Legend of Legaia: Duel Saga

strongest Dueler: Avalon.
weakest Dueler: Not sure. Ayne? Abstain.

favorite Dueler: Sharon <3
least Favorite Dueler: Avalon.

favorite DL moment with this game: Avalon beating the Zelos hype train. Despite what you'd think, I'm happy this match turned out this way. It was the match when I first really started to understand how to interpret matches, averages, and legality of moves/forms/equips. I'm still learning, but at least I have a better idea now.
least favorite DL moment with this game: Anytime Sharon loses.

Other thoughts?: I want to do fanart of this game and I don't know why... Stupid Legaia and its fun-to-draw, but hard-to-accurately-capture character designs. I still need to finish that picture I drew of the RPGmon match where Noa charmed Lyn while Asellus watched. Good times. Also, on-topic, Legaia 2 needs more matches, it's hard to fairly judge it in the DL as is.

Pokemon Series:

Strongest Dueler: Mewtwo. Formchoice woo. Kyogre is a very close second, but Mewtwo's simply more adaptable. It does depend on the field, which is interesting in and of itself.
Weakest Dueler: Pikachu.

Favorite Dueler: Sceptile.
Least Favorite Dueler: Pikachu.

Favorite DL moment with this game: I dunno.
Least favorite DL moment with this game: Sceptile losing to Blaziken. It deserved to happen, but still.

Other thoughts?: Rank Abra.

Legend of Legaia: Duel Saga

strongest Dueler: ... Avalon.
weakest Dueler: Ayne. Speed sinks him.

favorite Dueler: Sharon.
least Favorite Dueler: Kazan. Hate.

favorite DL moment with this game: I dunno.
least favorite DL moment with this game: Sharon losing to Cecil. Uh?

Other thoughts?: Goddamnit LoL2 you're a fun cast. Also rank Elvis/Bubba.

Pokemon Series:

Strongest Dueler: Mewtwo
Weakest Dueler: Pikachu. Yeah, kind of hard to argue this ^^;

Favorite Dueler: Mewtwo
Least Favorite Dueler: Don't really have one

Favorite DL moment with this game: Probably seeing the "Mewtwo vs the World" topic, that was fun.
Least favorite DL moment with this game: Mewtwo's losing streak, also a nod to Mewtwo losing to Citan

Other Thoughts? Nothing comes to mind, sorry ^^;;

Yay~

EDIT: Oops, out of order.

Legaia:

Strongest Dueler: Avalon.
Weakest Dueler: Ayne or Maya. Thinking Ayne, Maya's at least shown some potential in Middle, even if she's overrated (waaay too easy to 2HKO).

Favorite Dueler: Mm. Maybe Lang?
Least Favorite Dueler: Kazan or Ayne. Ayne for AAU, Kazan for Charge Heal. The former I had multiple copies of to go around in-game, the latter I never saw. They're both pretty cool anyway, neat cast. I suppose I'll toss Kazan a vote for speed hype. Bad!

Favorite DL moment with this game: Avalon not losing to Zelos was nice. Lang's first run was cool, looking back at it. He needs in again.
Least favorite DL moment with this game: Velna losing to Eirika. It was a tough pool for her otherwise, so I don't even mind the downgrade, but that was annoying. Sharon sucking also hurt.

Other thoughts?: Rank Elliot and Marienne. Or not, yay vote draw.

Pokemon

strongest Dueler: Mewtwo. Hur.
weakest Dueler: Pikachu. Yeah.

favorite Dueler: Sceptile! Mewtwo and Lugia are also great. And Arti and Sui and yeah, it's fun.
least Favorite Dueler: Uh, Feraligator? Has way more damage than he has any right to, way more speed too. Stupid GSC.

favorite DL moment with this game: Suicune getting to the finals, for sure.
least favorite DL moment with this game: Mewtwo's ability to consistently draw High Godlikes or folks with ID. Grrrr.

Other thoughts?: Needs more Starmie. Seriously, really glad some of it is ranked.

Erwin Schrödinger will kill you like a cat in a box.
Maybe.

Pokemon Series:

Strongest Dueler: Mewtwo (Just don't see Kyogre being stronger than RBY Mewtwo, even in a duel setting)
Weakest Dueler: Pikachu, can't argue that

Favorite Dueler: Mewtwo (Lugia, Charizard, Suicune are cool too, actually pretty much all the legendaries and the RBY starters)
Least Favorite Dueler: Uhh... Swampert's kinda annoying just because he looks repulsive to me. And Blaziken's just a crappier, ranked version of Infernape.

Favorite DL moment with this game: Suicune reaching the finals.
Least favorite DL moment with this game: Mewtwo's terrible luck (I also have a special place in my heart for Melfice somehow edging him out)

Other thoughts?: Rank DP and Starmie. On a less serious note, I also support ranking gym leaders and Elite Four members/rivals/plot-important characters. They can be Yuna-lites. I particularly support Blue, he gets plenty of forms to choose from, probably manages to be a good mid-Godlike, and not enough write-ups end with "Smell ya later~".

Legend of Legaia: Duel Saga

Other thoughts?: Don't care enough to comment right now.

I'd say so, especially for that price. It's probably one of the best things you'll find in the Bargain Bin, at least.
* Gatewalker notes that I bought it for just under $20 and don't consider it money wasted.

Pokemon Series:

Strongest Dueler: Mewtwo.  Just feel his variety offsets Kyogre's damage thing, especially since one of Kyogre's O_o damage aspects requires him going first and he's not that fast (though by no means slow!)
Weakest Dueler: Pikachu.  He's a good Light! But yeah, everyone else ranked is in Middle or higher.

Favorite Dueler: Articuno. Shouldn't really shock anyone!
Least Favorite Dueler: Feraligatr.  Ugliest of the Starters, and most worthless and boring in the DL, pretty much got in for completion purposes since objectively no reason to keep him out (I'm not complaining we ranked him, I just don't like him <_<)

Favorite DL moment with this game: Suicune's Run works for me, yeah.
Least favorite DL moment with this game: Shit fests regarding Ranking Gen 2/3, since there were arguments pulled there completely from left field which were very "what?" inducing.

Other thoughts?: Would like to see DP get in, but yeah, it lacks Pokemon's Biggest selling point (Vote Draw), so it can wait.

Legend of Legaia: Duel Saga

Strongest Dueler: Avalon. Strong Godlike Boss, etc.
Weakest Dueler: Ayne.  I'm kneejerking this based on how he's Kongol+, but everyone else in the cast has that limit range of death, or some other cheese.

Favorite Dueler: Lang, I guess.  I'm not really partial to anyone.
Least Favorite Dueler: Kazan. Relies on a skill I never saw in game, mrf.

Lack any favorite or least favorite moments.

Other thoughts?: Kind of apathetic to the game overall in the DL, possibly cause it doesn't get in often enough and such?
[21:39] <+Mega_Mettaur> so Snow...
[21:39] <+Mega_Mettaur> Sonic Chaos
[21:39] <+Hello-NewAgeHipsterDojimaDee> That's -brilliant-.
