Zophar (Lunar 2: Eternal Blue) vs Fou-lu (Breath of Fire IV): Lots of really good magic damage any way you slice it.

Middle

Freya Crescent (Final Fantasy IX) vs Ursula (Final Fantasy IV: The After Years): I would think so? She has a 4:3, isn't failing to 4HKO, and I don't think Freya can do much to stop her in those two turns.


EDIT:

Octopath Traveler - Played.
Dragon Quest XI - Not played
Tokyo Xanadu - Not played

Selphie Tilmitt (Final Fantasy VIII) vs Otome Yanagiya (Shin Megami Tensei: Devil Survivor 2) - I mean there's probably a 33% chance Selphie gets knocked into crisis range but otherwise 2HKOs, isn't 2HKO'd applies.

Data Time!

Data Time!

Octopath Traveler
Dragon Quest XI
Tokyo Xanadu

Played all three, although not finished with TX yet.  TX has usual Action RPG interp woes though for whatever it's worth, e.g. the usual how much to respect some big slow ground combo that might work fine on a big slow monster but really badly on a dodgy aerial foe.

Freya Crescent (Final Fantasy IX) vs Ursula (Final Fantasy IV: The After Years) - Confusion/Paralysis chance looks low enough (in Dhyer's topic) that High Jump may actually screw with Ursula's turn order enough to give it to Freya here.  High Jump -> High Jump -> Dragon Breath should be enough? Hashed it out in chat, this is Ursula's match.

Zophar (Lunar 2: Eternal Blue) vs Fou-lu (Breath of Fire IV)


Middle

Freya Crescent (Final Fantasy IX) vs Ursula (Final Fantasy IV: The After Years)- Jump won't work as a delay tactic. Ursula, Freya jumps and lands, Ursula attacks, Ursula doubles, Freya jumps and lands, Ursula attacks and kills


Haven't played any the games
...into the nightfall.

Zophar (Lunar 2: Eternal Blue) vs Fou-lu (Breath of Fire IV)

Heavy

Nera Briscolleti (Dragon Quest V: Hand of the Heavenly Bride) vs Rune Walsh (Phantasy Star IV: End of the Millennium)- I dunno, I guess PSIV skills scan more like Breath attacks than magic?  Unless PSIV has means of catching Rune's stuff that also catch magic.

Middle

Freya Crescent (Final Fantasy IX) vs Ursula (Final Fantasy IV: The After Years)

Light

Selphie Tilmitt (Final Fantasy VIII) vs Otome Yanagiya (Shin Megami Tensei: Devil Survivor 2)- *skim* Okay yeah, Otome goes fishing for Shock/Freeze so a crit does Selphie in, low odds still heal lock with plenty of chances and she's not gonna knock Selphie low enough to fish safely for a match-ender.
CK: She is the female you
Snow: Speaking of Sluts!

Zophar (Lunar 2: Eternal Blue) vs Fou-lu (Breath of Fire IV)

Heavy

Nera Briscolleti (Dragon Quest V: Hand of the Heavenly Bride) vs Rune Walsh (Phantasy Star IV: End of the Millennium)- *ffffffffftpft* to Bounce doing jack to stop Rune's skills; both games differ between skills and spells and bounce has never done anything to stop skills.  Negatis is resisted but it's moot as Nera has no way to stop Seals. Her best bet is to try and status Rune through Psy Shields before she's silenced and has to deal with Legeon spam. Good fucking luck with that.

Middle

Freya Crescent (Final Fantasy IX) vs Ursula (Final Fantasy IV: The After Years)- Better slugger.


Data Time!- Played none of those.

Definitely agree with Super re Bounce. Unless DQ5 is substantially different than other DQs, Bounce only affects explicit magic, not pseudomagic like dragon breaths, etc. Negatis is not that sort of explicit magic (Rune can cast it while silenced), nor is Legeon.

Maybe.
