Team Bardiche | Maxim, Tidus, Songstress, Crowley, Raja
[Floor 3a]
*All MT is ST and targetable
Team Bardiche vs. Flik
Team Bardiche vs. Ryu2 and Deis2
Team Bardiche vs. Aeonless Yuna and Rydia
Team Bardiche vs. Demi and Wren
Team Bardiche vs. Berserk

Does Maxim have revival here, even that bad Rally spell? The entire floor hinges on that, so no comment until then.


Team Consonant | Rika, Arc, Lilka, DoS White Wizard, Moulder
[Floor 1]
Team Consonant vs. Rufus and Reno
Team Consonant vs. Shuckle, Fred (S3) and Cecil
Team Consonant vs. Alice and FFT Priest
Team Consonant vs. Solt, Peppor, Alenia, Zahhak and Miluda
Team Consonant vs. Lundgren, Zalmo1 and Baigan - High-resource squadron handles this easily.


Team Grefter | Tir, Yuna, FFT White Wizard, Hellion, Raja
[Floor 1]
Team Grefter vs. Rufus and Reno
Team Grefter vs. Shuckle, Fred (S3) and Cecil
Team Grefter vs. Alice and FFT Priest
Team Grefter vs. Solt, Peppor, Alenia, Zahhak and Miluda
Team Grefter vs. Lundgren, Zalmo1 and Baigan - See below comment, replace Eileen with Hellion. The healing here is... sickening, on a side note. Too bad Holy's floor 6, but...


Team Nephrite | Timelord, Nina4, Eileen, Raja, Bowser
[Floor 1]
Team Nephrite vs. Rufus and Reno
Team Nephrite vs. Shuckle, Fred (S3) and Cecil
Team Nephrite vs. Alice and FFT Priest
Team Nephrite vs. Solt, Peppor, Alenia, Zahhak and Miluda
Team Nephrite vs. Lundgren, Zalmo1 and Baigan - Earlygame Eileen is just as mean as earlygame Crowley in many ways. Less charges of damage (2 at best!) But whatever she uses them on -dies-. Timelord has insane petrification, Nina4 damage is pretty decent at this point due to no dragon, and Bowser's a Jeigan with a skillset, so this goes well.

Yes, as far as my interpretation goes.

All floor 1 teams pass.

Not voting on my own! (yet)

Can't vote for Bardiche's team that much right now...


Team Consonant | Rika, Arc, Lilka, DoS White Wizard, Moulder
[Floor 1]
Team Consonant vs. Rufus and Reno - lol 1-1
Team Consonant vs. Shuckle, Fred (S3) and Cecil - Lilka has magic.
Team Consonant vs. Alice and FFT Priest - Uh...okay.  Tons of healing plus Saner and Illusion should win this easily enough.
Team Consonant vs. Solt, Peppor, Alenia, Zahhak and Miluda - ...yeah. 
Team Consonant vs. Lundgren, Zalmo1 and Baigan - WA2 defense is too narrow of a spread, and thus Lilka falls around average there.  Slow fight, but I can see it working in Random consonant's favor.


Team Grefter | Tir, Yuna, FFT White Wizard, Hellion, Raja
[Floor 1]
Team Grefter vs. Rufus and Reno - lol first fight
Team Grefter vs. Shuckle, Fred (S3) and Cecil - Might be wrong, but I think Hellion can handle this.
Team Grefter vs. Alice and FFT Priest - Hm, let me think here...
Team Grefter vs. Solt, Peppor, Alenia, Zahhak and Miluda
Team Grefter vs. Lundgren, Zalmo1 and Baigan


Team Nephrite | Timelord, Nina4, Eileen, Raja, Bowser
[Floor 1]
Team Nephrite vs. Rufus and Reno - lol first fight
Team Nephrite vs. Shuckle, Fred (S3) and Cecil - Timelord rapes.
Team Nephrite vs. Alice and FFT Priest - Timelord rapes some more.
Team Nephrite vs. Solt, Peppor, Alenia, Zahhak and Miluda - Timelord doesn't need to rape here, but probably can anyway.
Team Nephrite vs. Lundgren, Zalmo1 and Baigan - lol overdrive
<+Nama-EmblemOfFire> ...Have the GhebFE guy and the ostian princess guy collaborate.
 <@Elecman> Seems reasonable.

Team Bardiche | Maxim, Tidus, Songstress, Crowley, Raja
[Floor 3a]
*All MT is ST and targetable
Team Bardiche vs. Flik - Flik is either around average speed, or a bit above it. Either way, Tidus acts first and Delay Hits him, then Songstress shuts him down and bad things happen from there. Flik poses no problem at all.
Team Bardiche vs. Ryu2 and Deis2 - Not quite sure on this one, given Deis's amazing speed. However, Tidus still gets to act first thanks to Sonic Steel, and Delay Hit should knock Deis's act down a bit. Alternatively, he can hit Ryu2, then Deis kills someone and the team rushes Ryu2. Raja or Maxim revives whoever died, then Deis MAY kill someone again, if Songstress hasn't shut her down by then (I consider it to happen that way) and the team kills Deis without effort.
Team Bardiche vs. Aeonless Yuna and Rydia - Neither of these two have stellar speed. So, Tidus can either Delay Hit or Haste the Songstress. If he Hastes Songstress, she can knock one of the two into a perpetual state of sleep/silence (probably Rydia), while the rest rush the remaining caster. Then they move on towards the next. No MT means that I will always have one Healer alive! Hooray!
Team Bardiche vs. Demi and Wren - This duo may resist Songstress's effects on THEM, buuuut Songstress still has Jitterbug to boost someone's HP! As well as all her songs. Regardless, Tidus acts first, Delay Hits one so suddenly Maxim and Songstress go sooner! Songstress hastes Crowley, who coordinates with Maxim to do bad stuff to whoever got Delay Hit. One down. Whatever happens, Raja and Maxim have Revive and Heals, so A-OK there. Hell, even Crowley has Heals! So, with one of the duo down, the other is sort of chanceless and goes the same way.
Team Bardiche vs. Berserk - I have no idea who Berserk is, but is he capable of single-handedly resisting my entire team? Read up on this bloke, shouldn't be ANY problem at all.

Team Consonant vs. Alice and FFT Priest
Team Consonant vs. Solt, Peppor, Alenia, Zahhak and Miluda
Team Consonant vs. Lundgren, Zalmo1 and Baigan - None of the first four fights are all that threatening.  As for the boss fight, Lundgren eats Weak Enemy to help speed things along, the other two aren't a huge threat.  It'll take a while, but my team should come out of this alright.

Team Bardiche vs. Flik
Team Bardiche vs. Ryu2 and Deis2
Team Bardiche vs. Aeonless Yuna and Rydia
Team Bardiche vs. Demi and Wren
Team Bardiche vs. Berserk: Dunno, seems like this requires playing Lufia 2.


Team Consonant | Rika, Arc, Lilka, DoS White Wizard, Moulder
[Floor 1]
Team Consonant vs. Rufus and Reno
Team Consonant vs. Shuckle, Fred (S3) and Cecil
Team Consonant vs. Alice and FFT Priest
Team Consonant vs. Solt, Peppor, Alenia, Zahhak and Miluda
Team Consonant vs. Lundgren, Zalmo1 and Baigan: I don't see any problems here.


Team Grefter | Tir, Yuna, FFT White Wizard, Hellion, Raja
[Floor 1]
Team Grefter vs. Rufus and Reno
Team Grefter vs. Shuckle, Fred (S3) and Cecil
Team Grefter vs. Alice and FFT Priest
Team Grefter vs. Solt, Peppor, Alenia, Zahhak and Miluda
Team Grefter vs. Lundgren, Zalmo1 and Baigan: Level 1 Voice of Earth


Team MICHAEL | Timelord, Nina4, Eileen, Raja, Bowser
[Floor 1]
Team MICHAEL vs. Rufus and Reno: Shotgun crits are quite painful and Nina getting boxed or paralyzed constantly doesn't help. Still, Michael has just enough slugging power to tough this one out.
Team MICHAEL vs. Shuckle, Fred (S3) and Cecil: Timelord needs to overdrive here before Cecil uses Dark Knight form to ID the team one by one (Formchange is perfectly legal: see Dissidia). After that it is a very resource intensive battle against gods of defense, and Shuckle's Toxic hurts but the team makes it.
Team MICHAEL vs. Alice and FFT Priest: Priest can status heal Berserk so this will take a very long time. Michael's healer resources just barely outlast the other side.
Team MICHAEL vs. Solt, Peppor, Alenia, Zahhak and Miluda: Eileen needs to use the Voice of Earth charges here to prevent this from getting ugly fast. Team makes it.
Team MICHAEL vs. Lundgren, Zalmo1 and Baigan: Unfortunately the team has nothing left in the tank here to counter Lundgren's monstrous damage and Zalmo's healing. A valiant effort, but this is where freedom dies.
<Niu> If I ever see that Langfadood, i'll strangle him on sight
<Gourry> What, for making the game three times better?
<Gourry> And playable, at that?
<Niu> that lose the whole point of of L2!!!

Team Bardiche | Maxim, Tidus, Songstress, Crowley, Raja
[Floor 3a]
*All MT is ST and targetable
Team Bardiche vs. Flik- Silence dance+Slow.
Team Bardiche vs. Ryu2 and Deis2- Ryu2 gets danced out. Deis can't overwhelm two revviers. Note: Rally is very, very much floor 3. You get it right around the time Tia leaves.
Team Bardiche vs. Aeonless Yuna and Rydia- Yuna OHKOs Songstress. Rydia gets one rounded by Crowley+Maxim. Raja revives. Tidus hastes/slows, whichever fucks over Yuna more. Heal up.
Team Bardiche vs. Demi and Wren- Two revivers handle this. Raja's pretty tanky at this point thanks to two shields and Maxim's not frail.
Team Bardiche vs. Berserk

... Doesn't Delay Hit slow them more than Slow, though? Or am I... misinterpreting something here?

It does, but it also lags Tidus, and thus is arguably undesirable. Interp call. To me it doesn't matter, since if you've got two revivers here the enemy can't do enough to shut both + Tidus + Songstress down.

Bardiche passes, will bold this in my votes.

SH1 Berserk?  Status healing it doesn't do much if Alice still doesn't have any SP and just goes berserk again right after.

Hmm. ST F3 is never a breeze nor a cake walk even with generous resources as I painfully found out with my own two reviver team. As such I need to do some thinking on this so I'll leave it to the weekend. Granted this team does have Initiative/Initiative Haste and Tidus himself has at least decent speed (don't know about the others though) Hmm. Still Snow input would be appreciated.

PS - Yuna's the second fastest of her cast in the DL Bard >.>

Check Neph - Timelord is still limited to one overdrive per floor yes?

I ... think all the F1 teams pass Lol Cecil speed, etc (hi DS Edge)~

Definitely see Rally as Floor 3, so Bardiche passes.
