GODLIKE

Sephiroth (FF7) vs. Yuna (FFX) - Abstaining.  However, Sephiroth not held to a pattern can go first and keep Yuna from acting; FFX does not have Paralysis blockers according to the stat topic (or perhaps not even Paralysis as a status at all)


HEAVY

X (MMX:CM) vs. Worker 8 (FFT) - Kneejerk here.  Ultimate Armor with its ITD attacks seems to be considered legal and due to X-Heart, W8 needs three attacks to kill.  And W8 is an absolute slug and will likely be going second.  Between backlash and ITD, I do not believe W8 has what it takes to make it through this fight.


MIDDLE

Lich (FF1) vs. Bartholomew Fatima (XG) - Bart *can* at least hit a Fire weakness on Lich!  And just edges out the speed tiebreak with that six tenths of a percent.  I could go either way considering the defense, but for now I'm leaning Bart - [EDIT] ran the numbers.  Bart misses the OHKO with Prominence and gets stuck with Hold.


LIGHT

Natan (SH3) vs. Locke (FF6) - it is funny because it is Light.

GODLIKE

Sephiroth (FF7) vs. Yuna (FFX): Sephiroth's physical is ITE.


HEAVY

X (MMX:CM) vs. Worker 8 (FFT): Oh now this is tricky. Ultimate Armour doesn't boost HP so W8 still 2HKOs it, and X Fire's damage is fire so useless here. The speed boost means X does get a lot of attacks in, though... though I forget if Ultimate Armour's normal attacks are ranged or melee, which matters against Counter. Abstain for now.


MIDDLE

Lich (FF1) vs. Bartholomew Fatima (XG): If stop =/= paralysis then Bart loses bad, inclined to say they are in this case, though (FF1's STOP even inflicts paralysis, iirc). So Bart dunks his own physical durability to block this, and still goes first (barely). It's... close, after that. By my numbers, Bart 3HKOs (Lich has somewhere around 1.5 pdur, but Bart hits a fire weakness so does ~60% to average) and Lich... barely 2HKOs Bart's shaky mdur. It's only by like 2%, but it's enough. If Black Snake affects bosses I will (EDIT) not change my vote, since that'd drop Lich to... hmm, post-Haste it's a 2HKO, so 3 turns overall? As long as Bart doesn't lose his own 3HKO ... which it looks like it does. So yeah, either way Lich kills in one turn fewer.


LIGHT

Natan (SH3) vs. Locke (FF6): I think this is right, but it's very close. Natan having good HP and damage control makes it a little easier for him to avoid a Valiant Knife 3HKO. He just misses the 2HKO himself, so if he can hold back his damage turn 1 (either by deliberately botching his physical, or using Evil Eye?) so that Locke is at, e.g. 75% HP and then 30% HP, then Locke's bonus damage (which needs to come in at around 103% total HP missing or so to win) won't be enough.

GODLIKE
Sephiroth (FF7) vs. Yuna (FFX) - This happened multiple times in DL and subsequent CKDL tourneys IIRC. Anyway, see NEB. Seph is faster, Paralysis physical is practically ITE and paralyzes. Yuna can basically do nothing about this.


HEAVY
X (MMX:CM) vs. Worker 8 (FFT) - Lots of good matches in this tourney overall, and this is another good one. Anyway, I *think* X with Ultimate armor uses ranged attacks, which makes me lean towards X. Also, I kneejerk X-Heart putting in some good work here, since damage done towards W8 makes it more dangerous for it to use its skills. Will see if I can check this later.


MIDDLE
Is KO'd


LIGHT
Natan (SH3) vs. Locke (FF6) - Thanks to the power of NEB math from saving me from thinking about this. Locke is relying on Valiant Knife here, yeah, so if Natan fools around with his hits/damage to where he can avoid getting 2HKO'd back from Locke, he should have this.
