Godlike has a straightforward week with Kyogre and Fei shutting out their opponents. Heavy gives us our closest match in Squall vs. Rei. We also see Vahn winning his match with only vote... total. Middle gives us a coinflipped result with Flik being the lucky victor over Shu. And in Light, Blank beats up another helpless animal to move on to fight against his first (half) human opponent!

This week.

Godlike:
Kratos Aurion (ToS) vs. Althena/Luna (Lunar1)
Kyogre (PKMN) vs. Fei Fong Wong (XG)

Heavy:
Zack Fair (CCFF7) vs. Vahn (LoL)
Rei (BoF3) vs. Lucia (Lunar2)

Middle:
Flik (Suikos) vs. Mia (GS)
Gordon (Dis1) vs. Anise Tatlin (TotA)

Light:
Deneb (OB) vs. Jelanda Artolia (VP1)
Genis Sage (ToS) vs. Blank (FF9)

Please vote for who you think would win in a match based on plot powers/logic. Typically voting on endgame forms here, but you may take a duelist at the peak of their power if you prefer. If you don't know a duelist very well, you may still vote on them if you take some time to research their plot powers, I suppose.

Anyway, happy voting!

Godlike:
Kratos Aurion (ToS) vs. Althena/Luna (Lunar1): Specified Althena, which means she's got obscene power, etc.  Kratos is no slouch, but can't see him on Althena's level.
Kyogre (PKMN) vs. Fei Fong Wong (XG): ...fuck if I'm going to analyze just how strong I see Fei.

Heavy:
Zack Fair (CCFF7) vs. Vahn (LoL): Knee jerk.  Zack's got more experience and while Ra-Seru's are powerful, they don't really say just HOW strong they are and such.  Not to mention Zack did all his deeds single handedly, Vahh had help.
Rei (BoF3) vs. Lucia (Lunar2): Rei's pretty strong...but Lucia when she actually has power is just overkill.

Middle:
Flik (Suikos) vs. Mia (GS): Experienced Warrior in Combat, whose somewhat well known in several countries > Water Adept with little to no combat experience, whose plot power is entirely healing related.
Gordon (Dis1) vs. Anise Tatlin (TotA): Kneejerk Defender of Earth > Anis.

Light:
Deneb (OB) vs. Jelanda Artolia (VP1): Deneb should be higher *sighs*
Genis Sage (ToS) vs. Blank (FF9): Half Elf hype > Blank.

Godlike:
Kratos Aurion (ToS) vs. Althena/Luna (Lunar1) - Works.
Kyogre (PKMN) vs. Fei Fong Wong (XG) - Hmm. Think I'm going with "Legendary Whale Of DOOM is something you get in a Gear to fight" so Fei hops in Xenogears and manages to slug Kyogre down.

Heavy:
Zack Fair (CCFF7) vs. Vahn (LoL) - Ooh, SOLDIER 1st Class vs Ra Seru. I'm not entirely sure here. Gutcheck's gonna go with Zack here, I suppose.
Rei (BoF3) vs. Lucia (Lunar2)

Middle:
Flik (Suikos) vs. Mia (GS) - Finally hit a fight I don't think Mia can handle. Psynergy adept gets you pretty far, but veteren warrior and skilled rune-mage of Flik's caliber edges her out, I think.
Gordon (Dis1) vs. Anise Tatlin (TotA) - Don't think Anise can overpower Gordon. He'll dismantle Tokunaga and then Anise will beat a hasty retreat.

Light:
Deneb (OB) vs. Jelanda Artolia (VP1) - Deneb points out that Jelanda is technically already dead, so she wins by default.
Genis Sage (ToS) vs. Blank (FF9) - Sics Rattata on Genis, then beats him up while he's blasting the rat.

Godlike:
Kyogre (PKMN) vs. Fei Fong Wong (XG): Yeah, Xenogears can probably take Kyogre.

Heavy:
Rei (BoF3) vs. Lucia (Lunar2): Godlike vs. good but overrated.

Middle:
Gordon (Dis1) vs. Anise Tatlin (TotA): Disgaea human vs. extreme incompetence. How is this match not Light?

Light:
Genis Sage (ToS) vs. Blank (FF9): Played enough of ToS for this!

Godlike:
Kratos Aurion (ToS) vs. Althena/Luna (Lunar1) - Good match.  We don't know much about Althena but she still clearly wins the match by simply being a god, but since this is Godlike, I'm standing by my "this is Luna on Disc 2" interpretation.  In which case Kratos can probably take her.

Heavy:
Rei (BoF3) vs. Lucia (Lunar2) - Cue the antivote yet again.  Even if we ignore that Lucia was originally in Light, fully-powered Lucia is still obviously God-level, so this can't be it.

Middle:
Flik (Suikos) vs. Mia (GS) - This is lightning vs. water.
Gordon (Dis1) vs. Anise Tatlin (TotA) - I dunno, I have mildly higher respect for both these characters than some.  Going Anise, they're both a bit naive but she's also devious and will be on the offense here.

Light:
Deneb (OB) vs. Jelanda Artolia (VP1) - Minor deity.  Also note that IIRC Pumpkin attacks don't kill undead in Ogre Battle?  Deben herself is obviously helpless against them.
Genis Sage (ToS) vs. Blank (FF9) Yeah.

Based on end-game...

Godlike:
Kratos Aurion (ToS) vs. Althena/Luna (Lunar1) - One has a ton of experience under the belt. The other is the evil and twisted reincarnation of Althena - who may have been brainwashed to become so evil, but just by singing she controls one of the mighty dragons and lifts a citadel up into the sky. She also kills Alex if you don't play his flute, and as the legendary Dragon Master, second only to Althena I take him as being somewhat equal to Kratos. Kratos, unfortunately, has no flute. And he has nothing to protect against the fury of Althena.
Alternatively she just summons her Dragons and they deal with Kratos. Works for me.
Kyogre (PKMN) vs. Fei Fong Wong (XG) - Let's say Fei mounts his XenoGears. Awesome shit, man, but then the water level starts rising and Kyogre's in his element. Supposedly hard to beat in the water and rather agile, so long as it keeps away from Fei's destructive powers the Gear will just remain aquatic. And Fei needs food.

Heavy:
Zack Fair (CCFF7) vs. Vahn (LoL) - SOLDIER VS army of SOLDIERS and nearly wins VS lol i has monster on my hand
Rei (BoF3) vs. Lucia (Lunar2) - At her end-game stats, she uses the POWER OF LOVE to overcome the personification of hatred and returns to the Blue Star to watch over it. It is heavily implied with brutal bluntness, to me, that she is back to her old power and perhaps stronger. In other words, Rei's got quite a dandy problem, because Lucia is going to wreck him. And tear him to shreds. And remember, even at the weakest of her powers she was able to ditch Hiro and travel through a canyon filled with monsters (although the monsters may not be exactly PLOT) towards Leo's ship, where she disabled all his petty soldiers but couldn't stand up to his HOLY KNIGHT stuff. Even at the weakest of her powers she's at least as powerful as, say, Garr, so taking her at end-game would see a massive increase in her powers.
Lucia = weak argument not found.

Middle:
Flik (Suikos) vs. Mia (GS) - Badass all around Gregminster in the final scenes, started up his own mercenary group and is known as Flik of the Blue Lightning, one badass mofo. Mia is only known in a single village for curing colds. Well...
Gordon (Dis1) vs. Anise Tatlin (TotA) - Kneejerking that Gordon is sort of competent at what he does and Anise is an idiot.

Light:
Deneb (OB) vs. Jelanda Artolia (VP1) - Jelanda has plot powers beyond Einherjar hype?
Genis Sage (ToS) vs. Blank (FF9) - Can still move while attacking, unlike Genis. Is also competent at what he does. Could probably dodge Genis's first attack and then stab the elf boy. Genis is also pretty easily tricked (Mithos), and I'm quite sure Blank can pull off the same shit. Plus, Blank VS Deneb.

Kyogre (PKMN) vs. Fei Fong Wong (XG) - Gear hype, why not?

Heavy:
Rei (BoF3) vs. Lucia (Lunar2) - Lucia smash puny weretiger

Middle:
Flik (Suikos) vs. Mia (GS) - Feels right

Light:
Deneb (OB) vs. Jelanda Artolia (VP1) - Vastly more competent

Kratos Aurion (ToS) vs. Althena/Luna (Lunar1)
Kratos is strong, but...  not that strong.

Kyogre (PKMN) vs. Fei Fong Wong (XG)
Kyogre has a few things that can counter him, while Fei has loosely defined God/Jesus powers.  Monotheism > Polytheism.


Heavy:
Rei (BoF3) vs. Lucia (Lunar2)
Well, now that you cleared up how we should be looking at Lucia, she's not Heavy.


Middle:
Flik (Suikos) vs. Mia (GS)
A specialist in healing magic who, while scarce and power compared to norms, is up against a Suikoverse native.  But also one who is a respectable mage, talented fighter, hero in two nations (and one of them is pretty damned big) who is also a gifted leader of men and who can dissolve lynch mobs by use of quick wits and solid bluffs.  Not to mention his knack for managing to save people and generally knowing how to be in the right place at the right time.


Light:
Deneb (OB) vs. Jelanda Artolia (VP1)
Deneb is pretty big, but Jelanda is also an Einherjar, and the heroic dead are a bigger deal than Light.

Genis Sage (ToS) vs. Blank (FF9)
Erm...  yeah.  Semi-mystical being with magical powers and genius intellect even attached to the power of wussing out > slightly badass actor.

Kratos Aurion (ToS) vs. Althena/Luna (Lunar1) - Close match, I gotta say, but the Goddess beats out the semi-god.
Kyogre (PKMN) vs. Fei Fong Wong (XG) - TEH SURPREME BEING vs. teh fishy.

Heavy:
Rei (BoF3) vs. Lucia (Lunar2) - Hmm... kneejerk here. But then again, I never was fond of Lucia.

Middle:
Flik (Suikos) vs. Mia (GS) - Experienced, powerful, and a pimp without even knowing so.

Light
Genis Sage (ToS) vs. Blank (FF9) - Gut says Blank can pull something badass. Ties with Zidane can't be a good thing.

If we believed in that, we wouldn't be forcing world-saving hero to fight eachother to the death for our amusement.

While I do agree Zack wins...Zack did NOT face an Army of SOLDIERs.

He faced a battalion of regular infantry men.  A few were holding swords for some reason, but they were still dressed as Infantry Men and not in SOLDIER attire.

This isn't to say the feat isn't impressive, considering how far he got, but you're giving him a bit more credit than he deserves.

... Oh, just an army of regulars. Don't think Vahhn's as strong as an entire army, though, so jerking that Zack wins here.
