[superaielman]

Godlike:

Souji Seta (P4) vs Brahman (DDS)- I donno. Kneejerk.
Fou-Lu (BoF4) vs Ghaleon (Lunars)- Hell Wave really isn't Fou-Lu's friend.

Heavy:

Cristo/Kiryl (DQ4) vs Naoto Shirogane (P4)- Better at the ID slinging game.

[Taishyr]

Godlike:

Souji Seta (P4) vs Brahman (DDS) - Form 2 has the chance of knocking off a lifebar (Dormina spam -> Calm Death), forms 3 and 4 I think can both ensure a kill after Eternal Zero and 5 definitely can finish off (3+4 only kill one form, then 5 can just knock him down to Endure'd HP at worst and he won't recover thanks to the building-up attack form 5)
Fou-Lu (BoF4) vs Ghaleon (Lunars) - yup, pretty sure on this but could probably be argued.

Heavy:

Cristo/Kiryl (DQ4) vs Naoto Shirogane (P4)
Ness (EB) vs Suzuka (SRW:EF) - ...... ....oh god what neither ever fucking dies.

[Jo'ou Ranbu]

Godlike:

Souji Seta (P4) vs Brahman (DDS) - I donno. This really could go either way, Brahman's single-element reliance in-between forms can be problematic, but given how insane Eternal Zero is and how one of the forms bypasses Souji's elemental immunities even past EYE LAZORZ HYEP, I feel more inclined to give the tiebreak to the one that feels like more of a fuck you to the field. >_>
Fou-Lu (BoF4) vs Ghaleon (Lunars) - Is capable of dealing with Fou-Lu's walling and has more durability. Given how both are not that far apart in speed, that should be enough. Opening Dark Wave will -hurt-, but...

Heavy:

Cristo/Kiryl (DQ4) vs Naoto Shirogane (P4) - IDs first, and I think I see DQ4 Death as close enough to Dark elemental to let Naoto wall it. Silence can be a pain in the ass, but Naoto's Luck is pretty good.
Ness (EB) vs Suzuka (SRW:EF) - Suzuka does not have the offense to handle Ness and doesn't have status resistances to handle Brainshock either. This match is fast and easy.

[Taishyr]

Oh, right, Brainshock. Vote made, then.

[Random Consonant]

Fou-Lu (BoF4) vs Ghaleon (Lunars) - Yup.

Ness (EB) vs Suzuka (SRW:EF) - Status makes Suzuka weep.

Yang (FF4) vs Hina (Suiko DS) - I... think.

[DjinnAndTonic]

Godlike:

Souji Seta (P4) vs Brahman (DDS) - The durability difference is just astounding.
Fou-Lu (BoF4) vs Ghaleon (Lunars) - Cool fight, but haven't we seen this before?

Heavy:

Cristo/Kiryl (DQ4) vs Naoto Shirogane (P4) - Not sure. I don't see Naoto as blocking Cristo's ID, but she might still have a decent argument.

Middle:

Jude Maverick (WA4) vs Estella (ToV) - Even though I see Estelle as 2nd-slowest in her cast... it's not by a huge margin, and probably not enough to let Jude OHKO with AB through her amazing durability. I don't normally allow Black Market stuff... So Estelle gets him with a Fatal Artes eventually. Don't think he doubles in time to stop it.

Light:

Tia (Lufia 2) vs Chuck Preston (WA5) - Kneejerk.
Erk (FE7) vs Judith (ToV) - He doesn't double, but he gets counters. He might not live through a full Judy combo though... Eh, kneejerk is that she 2HKOs him and he only 3HKOs back.

[Talaysen]

Godlike:

Souji Seta (P4) vs Brahman (DDS) - Yeah, don't think Souji can deal with this.  Could be argued though.
Fou-Lu (BoF4) vs Ghaleon (Lunars) - Whatever.

Heavy:

Cristo/Kiryl (DQ4) vs Naoto Shirogane (P4) - ...I think?
Ness (EB) vs Suzuka (SRW:EF)

Middle:

Yang (FF4) vs Hina (Suiko DS) - What statuses does Yang have?  EDIT: Assuming sleep doesn't fail.
Jude Maverick (WA4) vs Estella (ToV) - You know what Jude doesn't like?  Tanks.

Light:

Tia (Lufia 2) vs Chuck Preston (WA5) - How good are Tia's IPs?  EDIT: Thought this through, and I think Chuck puts too much pressure on her with the limit.
Erk (FE7) vs Judith (ToV) - I guess?

[Jo'ou Ranbu]

Yang's legal status is Sleep. He has Charm on Catclaws, but that's one of a kind and there are two people who can equip it.

[superaielman]

Tia's got a damage IP to smash past limits, if that's the problem.

[hinode]

Yang's legal status is Sleep. He has Charm on Catclaws, but that's one of a kind and there are two people who can equip it.

Bear in mind that this is two people who are never in the party at the same time, except in FF4a.

[Yoshiken]

Souji Seta (P4) vs Brahman (DDS) - This is an odd fight, yeah. Brahman's durability is freaking insane, but I think this basically comes down to the last two forms - elemental resistances and Mediarahan make the first two pretty pointless, and the third one consists of Dormina -> Calm Death to take out Enduring Soul, but that's it. The fourth form... Souji has Silence blockers, but I'm not sure if Neural Shock is Panic or Mute... If it's Panic, Souji's done for.
Anyways. Souji can chip the next form down to about half health, but it needs a Diarahan every other turn, methinks. Power Charge -> HT -> Diarahan -> PC -> HT. Think that -should- kill Brahman without leading to Souji's death, but... it's a hell of a stretch, and I doubt he has the MP pool to pull that off. Nice match, though.

[Taishyr]

Meanwhile I just see Brahman as four forms of 0.6x PCHP and one form of 1.2x PCHP, each killable by a Hassou Tobi! It's just that he can bulldoze Souji lives without issue. >_>

[Jo'ou Ranbu]

That amounts to 3.6x PC HP, which is goddamned ridiculous -anyway-, let alone with the HP buffering madness. >_>

[Taishyr]

Yeah, but he's...  well, against bosses that's not really -so- intimidating, thanks to me not seeing the statdowns working on most. Just, uh, Souji.

[Jo'ou Ranbu]

I don't think there's a boss outside Myria1 that can take that level of damage throughout the formchains+HP buffering anyway! But YMMV.

[Monkeyfinger]

And Myria1 is provably stat down bait anyway. You'd be better off hyping profound darkness who explicitly immunes stat downs and has about the same HP and damage as Myria. Slower by a lot, but a speed advantage over Brahman isn't even worth much.

Godlike:

Souji Seta (P4) vs Brahman (DDS)
Fou-Lu (BoF4) vs Ghaleon (Lunars): A little faster, a lot more damaging at first, and by the time Ghaleon can narrow the damage gap he's nearing death.

Heavy:

Cristo/Kiryl (DQ4) vs Naoto Shirogane (P4)

[Jo'ou Ranbu]

Right, PD also survives Brahman onslaught. And Jade. But this is all not even factoring Eternal Zero in.

[Pyro]

Godlike:


Fou-Lu (BoF4) vs Ghaleon (Lunars): Kneejerk. Also, didn't multi-hits go through Chaos Shield?

Heavy:

Cristo/Kiryl (DQ4) vs Naoto Shirogane (P4): I see other people voting this way so I assume that Naoto can get past the silence?

Middle:

Jude Maverick (WA4) vs Estella (ToV): Hmm. I guess her twinked defense is more than enough for this.

Light:

Tia (Lufia 2) vs Chuck Preston (WA5): Chuck isn't a bad Light in the DL. I hate the world.
Erk (FE7) vs Judith (ToV): Judy 2HKOs because Erk is an FE mage and is 3HKO'd. I tend to think she goes first.

[Jo'ou Ranbu]

Cristo/Kiryl (DQ4) vs Naoto Shirogane (P4): I see other people voting this way so I assume that Naoto can get past the silence?

I dunno if she has Silence resistance equips, but Rune Dress+Algernon Mudoon/Hamaon is turn one and she goes first.
