Balthier (FFT:LW) vs Goddess (FF6)- Pyro made a pretty good argument for this the last time I talked to him.


Heavy

Zero (MMXCM) vs Arcana (VP2)- Strong kneejerk.


Middle

Mithra (VP2) vs Mohs (TotA)- Um. I' m guessing!

Chuck (WA5) vs Dario (WA3): Speed, evasion, damage up, not being Dario, you name it.

Bloodbane (VP1) vs Fereydoon (WA5): I think. I'm not horribly confident in this. Both should have good damage, but I think Fereydoon wins on durability.
Balthier (FFT:LW) vs Goddess (FF6): Goddess' damage isn't enough to OHKO here, and her status is held off by an Aegis/Crystal Shield. Her physical durability gives Balthier an OHKO.


Heavy

Klein (AI1) vs Thanatos (SoM): Status or heal lock, I guess.
Zero (MMXCM) vs Arcana (VP2): Hey, if I rush through MMXCM I can vote on this!


Middle

Mithra (VP2) vs Mohs (TotA): Status breath + magic tanking.


Light

Mist(FE9) vs Nimufu (BoF2): Mist may suck but she's bloody good at handling mages.
Chuck (WA5) vs Dario (WA3): Maybe I should have used Chuck more to vote with more confidence, but eh.

Bloodbane (VP1) vs Fereydoon (WA5)
Balthier (FFT:LW) vs Goddess (FF6)- Haven't gotten Balthier yet.


Heavy

Klein (AI1) vs Thanatos (SoM)- Klein resists both of Thanatos' best damages greatly, as I wrote in the match description. That leaves Thanatos using weaker damage on KLEIN. The guy who BLOCKS HALF OF EVERYTHING. INCLUDING STATUS!
Zero (MMXCM) vs Arcana (VP2)- Yeah, also did this writeup. Zero heal locks Arcana, and once he gets enough WE, Hyper Mode. That's it, pretty much. Arcana does not want to choose Stony Decree over Heal, as I'm pretty sure 2 Heat Hazes will kill her off if she isn't full on HP.


Middle

Mithra (VP2) vs Mohs (TotA)- Mohs Magic Defense. What. The. Hell.
Axel (Dis2) vs Mitsuru (Pers3)- Kneejerk? Has REALLY good damage after Mind Charge.


Light

Mist(FE9) vs Nimufu (BoF2)
Chuck (WA5) vs Dario (WA3)-Dario.

My god, a NR set that I CAN VOTE ON.

Middle

Mithra (VP2) vs Mohs (TotA) Status breath, magic tanking, Mithra can't do damage worth SHIT last I checked.
Axel (Dis2) vs Mitsuru (Pers3) Arguably the hardest of the matchups for me to decide.  Mitsuru is ever so slightly below average speed (whereas Axel is average, losing tiebreaks), and Axel has a reliable and inexpensive 2HKO in Triple Strike->Shocking Soul.  This means that he can regularly threaten Mitsuru with a looming Triple Strike, forcing a heal lock...and Axel has 22 shots of Triple Strike compared to Mitsuru's 15 shots of Diarahan.

This is before taking Mitsuru's subpar END into account.  Axel looks like a clear winner here, though I am open to argument.

Light

Chuck (WA5) vs Dario (WA3) - All the zipping up in the world can't save Dario from the sad fact that HE IS DARIO.
<+Nama-EmblemOfFire> ...Have the GhebFE guy and the ostian princess guy collaborate.
 <@Elecman> Seems reasonable.

Bloodbane (VP1) vs Fereydoon (WA5)- Bloodbane. Prismatic Missile hitting 2x Weakness. Easy, easy OHKO while Fereydoon is charging (For what won't OHKO Bloodbane to me anyways)

Heavy

Zero (MMXCM) vs Arcana (VP2)- Hmm, the Stone lasts longer than paralysis which is 2-3 turns. My gut says Stone was 4-5, but I'll say 4. I...think Arcana takes this.


Middle

Mithra (VP2) vs Mohs (TotA)- Mithra. Really, Mohs Mdef hype against someone whose best damage is 75% ITD? Also, Mohs has a 3HKO and therefore even with status (and not good) status, he's having really bad issues overcoming Heal. Like...really, really bad.

Light

Chuck (WA5) vs Dario (WA3)- Chuck.

Prismatic Missile hitting 2x Weakness.

Fereydoon is weak to Wind, not Lightning. There's a few Lightning attacks in WA5 (the boss in the arena, and Furfurs both come to minds as having them) and they are non-elemental, so WA5 wind very clearly does not include lightning.

(Yes, I'm aware the match is over now.)

Maybe.

Nor would it have changed my vote! But seeing that much damage come into play would have been funny.
