Tiki (Fire Emblem Series) vs Vanille (Final Fantasy XIII)
Even discounting status hype, healing is trouble for Tiki...   she has a bad critical rate IIRC.
Edgar Figaro (Final Fantasy VI) vs Alfina (Grandia III)
Alfina's reign of terror continues.

Middle

Jude Mathis (Tales of Xillia) vs Serperior (Pokémon)
Uhhh probably Serperior?
Lightning Farron (Final Fantasy XIII) vs Ranger (Bravely Default)
Ranger 5HKOs average literally on the nose.  Lightning is exactly average HP.  If she goes for healing she eventually gets doubled and dies, if she tries to 2HKO Ranger effective 2HKOs first.
The Jackal (Bravely Default) vs la Grenouille de mort (Breath of Fire II)
Middle status-slinger vs. boss.

Light

Archer (Final Fantasy Tactics) vs Amalthea (The Legend of Heroes: Trails in the Sky)
#1, Archer should win this slugfest by default, he throws away Thief Hat for Twist Headband and does a slower 2HKO off Charge hype vs. Amalthea's 3HKO.  #2 it doesn't matter because Aegis Shield ruins Amalthea anyway, FFT vs. mages.  #3, Archer can block POIZN for Amalthea's backup physical game.  So Amalthea would lose anyway and is also spoiled on top of that.

Cyan Garamonde (Final Fantasy VI) vs Freelancer (Bravely Default)
Stop?  Or just endless match where Cyan deals more damage over time thanks to draining.  (Freelancer blocks ID.)

Noel Chandler (Star Ocean: The Second Story) vs Luke fon Fabre (Tales of the Abyss)
Luke's regen wrecks.

Godlike

Persephone (Wild ARMs 5) vs Mewtwo (Pokémon): Gets off a limit immediately. Being somewhat faster than a Sentinel ends really badly by my views on how they work.
Dark Knight (Bravely Default) vs Arceus (Pokémon): Arceus can resist dark, but is powerless against a decent bit of Minus Strike spam. But... it'll take four Minus Strikes to kill a full-HP Arceus (each does 31.5%). If he opens with Cosmic Power and has a dark resistance set, the most a Dark Nebula can do is 9% of Arceus' HP, which is enough to kill if things set up perfectly... but they won't. Rage is the bigger concern, since Rage+Minus Strike x3 will... actually probably kill. Of course that can't happen until turn 3. So forget Cosmic Power, Arceus just wants to kill in three turns without letting Dark Knight set up perfectly. This... actually he should be able to do, his damage is magic so he can do plenty of it, and is much faster than DK so probably has a 4-3.

Heavy

Tiki (Fire Emblem Series) vs Oerba dia Vanille (Final Fantasy XIII): No reason to assume Snowfire isn't right.
Edgar Figaro (Final Fantasy VI) vs Alfina (Grandia III): Blocks Edgar's stuff, the reverse isn't true.
Bacchus D-79 (Star Ocean: The Last Hope) vs Billy Lee Black (Xenogears): Yikes. Assuming Billy can block stun, this could well be an endless fight? Billy has a 5HKO here, so even Haste won't get him past Emergency Repairs, but Bacchus has a low 2HKO which Billy can haste-heal away. The issue, of course, is resources... Bacchus' don't really run out (he has Convert), Billy's do. It's also posisble Bacchus could put Billy away with critical hits in rush mode. Billy's only hope is to store up a combo but even those only do 68% to Bacchus' durability... which can't even combine on a doubleturn with a normal DB for a KO.

Middle

Lightning Farron (Final Fantasy XIII) vs Ranger (Bravely Default): Lightning manages average HP? That's really surprising. gj Hope? (Doesn't matter here.) EDIT: On second thought... yeah Ranger's method of heal-locking doesn't work against Lightning, which is kinda sad since it doesn't take much damage for 4-ATB healing combos to not be good enough.
The Jackal (Bravely Default) vs la Grenouille de mort (Breath of Fire II): Jean doesn't beat many ID-immune Middles, and I'm not at all convinced Jackal is a Middle.

Light

Archer (Final Fantasy Tactics) vs Amalthea (The Legend of Heroes: Trails in the Sky): When in doubt, assume a Trails boss sucks.
Cyan Garamonde (Final Fantasy VI) vs Freelancer (Bravely Default): Freelancer blocking ID is really slow and Quadra Slice is ITD, so I wouldn't be surprised if Cyan can just punch through with damage. Or stop yeah sure. Or infinite Empowerer + more damage sure.
Pikachu (Pokémon) vs Rubella (Child of Light): This really needs a stat topic. Guess is Rubella, the game's damage curve doesn't feel -that- wide to me, but if it's wider than I think Pikachu may have a shot.
Noel Chandler (Star Ocean: The Second Story) vs Luke fon Fabre (Tales of the Abyss): Build up to a mystic arte or something, I dunno. Definitely disagree with considering regen, though! If we're taking PCs at points that aren't endgame now, I'm sure Marcus will be overjoyed...

Aya Brea (Parasite Eve) vs Gongora (Lost Odyssey)- Hey...I've seen both these people. I don't normally vote on Aya though and god knows what Gongora does. Is was said last time that he had 100% stone. That should be...okay? here. I think. I honestly would not vote on this match, but I think it otherwise runs the risk of 0 voters. This basically goes Gongora beats PCs he can hit with the status, Godlikes who block it beat him in terms of voting assumptions.
Persephone (Wild ARMs 5) vs Mewtwo (Pokémon)

Heavy
Edgar Figaro (Final Fantasy VI) vs Alfina (Grandia III)- More muttering at CK for giving Alfina two Heavies in a row that she straight up spoils.

Middle
Lightning Farron (Final Fantasy XIII) vs Ranger (Bravely Default)- Going against the grain here, but I don't see why Ranger will have a good shot to double? Won't Lightning just be constantly cutting her turn short (she'll only need to heal once or twice to keep up with a single Ranger hit, so she'll always be getting quick recharges). Ranger can't decisively kill, and she farms a summon.
The Jackal (Bravely Default) vs la Grenouille de mort (Breath of Fire II)

Light

Archer (Final Fantasy Tactics) vs Amalthea (The Legend of Heroes: Trails in the Sky)
Cyan Garamonde (Final Fantasy VI) vs Freelancer (Bravely Default)
Pikachu (Pokémon) vs Rubella (Child of Light)- Yeah, I think Rubella should have the 2HKO here, since I just don't imagine she falls below half average.
Noel Chandler (Star Ocean: The Second Story) vs Luke fon Fabre (Tales of the Abyss)

Heavy

Elsa Eliane (Front Mission 4) vs The Strongest (Labyrinth of Touhou) - uh.  Would need to check how much milage (9) can wring out of White Album here.  e: gut says it's not quite enough though, since Elsa's evade kind of makes this an uphill battle as-is even if Cirno can dodge counters with MT.
Edgar Figaro (Final Fantasy VI) vs Alfina (Grandia III) - Edgar against someone who can't be hit with confuse or ID.

You're joking, right.

Light

Archer (Final Fantasy Tactics) vs Amalthea (The Legend of Heroes: Trails in the Sky) - Maybe I'll be able to get to this at some point but probably not.
Pikachu (Pokémon) vs Rubella (Child of Light) - Going with the crowd on this one.

FWIW, I don't recall your thoughts on Default, but if you see Default as doing *anything* for damage reduction, Ranger has an alternate way to win - Default x2 -> Multiburst x2 + Attack x2.  Ranger has .76 PDur so she should get 2HKO'd by Light normally, but even with a wussy amount of damage reduction, she'll survive and kill.

Not sure how I feel about the universal defend command, but either way, that combo does only a bit over 12,000. So Lightning isn't dead after it if she started at full. Granted, I guess doing that combo then following up with another combo should do it. So...vote changed.

That combo can't be done twice in a row due to the BP costs (it will take Ranger from +3 at max to -2 the next turn). It does 14500 damage, not 12000... but that's still not enough to kill average HP. Of course, if Ranger does get up to +3, she can use Multiburst x3 + Attack for 16000, which will kill. But that involves giving Lightning 3 turns to attack her first.

FWIW, I use the no-Salve Maker no-Merchant average, where this combo *does* kill (14300 killpoint, 14500 damage), to explain the discrepancy.  Note that a higher damage average may screw Ranger's heal-lock strategy over anyway as it's possible she barely misses the 5HKO then depending on what's used.

(32000 pg!  In one fight!)

Aya Brea (Parasite Eve) vs Gongora (Lost Odyssey)
Persephone (Wild ARMs 5) vs Mewtwo (Pokémon): ITD overkill. Isn't OHKOd.
Sora (Kingdom Hearts Series) vs Zio (Phantasy Star IV): Mmm. I think.
Dark Knight (Bravely Default) vs Arceus (Pokémon): Dark Knight totally wins with his demon-charming move.

Tiki (Fire Emblem Series) vs Oerba dia Vanille (Final Fantasy XIII): Vanille can't really land any status here, right?
Elsa Eliane (Front Mission 4) vs The Strongest (Labyrinth of Touhou): Who?
Edgar Figaro (Final Fantasy VI) vs Alfina (Grandia III): Hahaha status immunity wins again.
Bacchus D-79 (Star Ocean: The Last Hope) vs Billy Lee Black (Xenogears)

Middle

Jude Mathis (Tales of Xillia) vs Serperior (Pokémon): Jude can get a fire weapon here for a paltry ~10% drop in offense. So 180% of his normal offense vs. Serperior. That probably would net him a win, with the healing?
Lightning Farron (Final Fantasy XIII) vs Ranger (Bravely Default)

Pyro: First off, FEA Res being useful vs. status is a bit shakier than other FEs, but sure, let's call Tiki status-immune to low-Hit% statuses (subtractive Hit% resistance & all) like Vanille's.  Her damage still isn't a 2HKO (Vanille's ~.93 PCHP IIRC) and she has a 0% critical rate solo according to the stat topic (higher in-game due to Pair-Up bonuses at least?!).  Vanille can just heal forever until Tiki's Dragonstone+ is exhausted.  If Tiki does nothing to save DS+ charges, then Vanille builds up into a summon and wins.

The main way to see Tiki winning is to ban Brave Weapons I suspect, which will radically reduce the damage average for non-mages/dragons/bunnies and give Tiki a strong 2HKO that I'm not sure Vanille can heal off in a single turn.  (She's also nearly Godlike if you do this, much like how broken she is in-game before Braves!)  EDIT: Although..  I'm not even sure of that, Vanille/Hope's healing gets better at lower HP, so it's possible Vanille can stay afloat even against lots more damage.  Would have to double-check.

For Jude vs. Serperior...  well, how much drain is Serperior pulling off a turn?  Your stat topic seems to claim Jude has barely-a-4HKO vs. average at base...  still, Jude can get in some nasty damage while Serperior tries to set up.

Pyro: First off, FEA Res being useful vs. status is a bit shakier than other FEs, but sure, let's call Tiki status-immune to low-Hit% statuses (subtractive Hit% resistance & all) like Vanille's.

Although this is closed, I want to highlight that it's more than a bit shakier, but there I don't believe is a shred of in game evidence to support it.

There's also no counter-evidence and relying on other games in the series when no evidence exists either way doesn't strike me as unreasonable. (Not how I handle this case, but I could see it.) Most people are pretty cool with saying S2 confirms S1 Judgement as dark, for instance, or that FE10 MT ignoring counters mean MT ignores counters from all other Fire Emblem games too.
