DQ8 and DDS

FFX and PS4
FFT and SoA
S3 and FE7
FF4 and CT
ToS and VP1



We've had various incarnations of this topic over the years, measuring how much you like a game's cast/what'd you rank from the game/how much you respect the duellers, etc. Well, we haven't had one of these in a while so I figured I'd restart the topic to give us something to talk about during the downtime. Archived topics are listed above. Feel free to bump up and vote on older topics.

FF6- If FF7's not the DL's best draw, it's FF6. A game with success at all levels and plenty of star power (Terra, Kefka), it's also a game that has been very heavily argued on and a title that generates it's fair share of hate. Certainly more interesting than FF7 and CT in the DL, that's for sure.

OB's been a small game over the years. Most notable for Rashidi's early success and the popularity of the Dragoons, it hasn't been at the forefront of the DL. It's tread the fine line between being an okay draw without suffering from robs like a few titles in that range do.

Final Fantasy 6

Favorite dueller: Celes. Her skillset is one filled with tricks that to me, just highlights the awesome of the FF6 magic command. She has awesome armour which rounds her out. Ends up serviceable in Godlike despite only slightly above average damage and 25% healing.
Least favorite dueller: Cyan. Kinda sucks, and has a rob or two!

Strongest dueller: Kefka. Best raw offence in the DL? Quite possibly. A bit spoilable but not easily.
Weakest dueller: Uh. Gogo?

Favorite moment in the DL with this game: Ultros winning Heavy, and his role on BtS in general.
Least favorite moment in the DL with this game: Cyan beating Melody.

A character you'd like to see added to the game: The Goddesses are fun but I don't really support them too seriously any more.
A character you wouldn't have ranked from this game: Gogo is a bit questionable, I guess? Whatever.

Any other notes/thoughts about the game? Really glad that one of the big draws ends up interesting.

Ogre Battle

Favorite dueller: The dragoons? Wish they were better pencilled down, though.
Least favorite dueller: Rashidi. Hyping SRPG bosses as getting a drain game going is not really something I can get behind.

Strongest dueller: Rashidi probably. While the durability does not impress, the damage potential does, and he's less wallable than Endora.
Weakest dueller: Uh. Yushis?

Favorite moment in the DL with this game: Rika beating Rashidi.
Least favorite moment in the DL with this game: Rashidi vs. Guido.

Any other notes/thoughts about the game? Bleh to it in general. Subpar vote draw spliced with poor documentation is not very Elf-friendly, though.

Final Fantasy 6

Favorite dueller: Terra- Boom Magic, MP Efficient Magic, Drain Magic, and a passable physical with man eater against magic immune fighters.
Least favorite dueller: Gogo- In game is fairly cool, but DL wise... awful

Strongest dueller: Kefka- Insane damage and speed... get's even stupider if you fail to OHKO.
Weakest dueller: Gogo?

Favorite moment in the DL with this game: Ultros wins!
Least favorite moment in the DL with this game: Terra not only losing to, but getting slaughtered by Chris.

A character you'd like to see added to the game: Wrexsoul! (RPGP humor!)
A character you wouldn't have ranked from this game: It's fine

Any other notes/thoughts about the game?-Nothing that need be said

Ogre Battle

Favorite dueller: They're all fairly two dimensional... I guess Rashidi for having actual elemental options?
Least favorite dueller: None really

Strongest dueller: Rashidi-  Endora is a high heavy/weak godlike and Rashidi has 2x her firepower.
Weakest dueller: Norn/Aisha/Yushis do not translate well.

Favorite moment in the DL with this game: Dragoon rampages!
Least favorite moment in the DL with this game: Rashidi's .000001 pchp hype.

A character you'd like to see added to the game: DIABLO'S RIGHT HAND ONLY!
A character you wouldn't have ranked from this game: Destin... 4 versions of him and yeah


Any other notes/thoughts about the game?- Owns

Final Fantasy 6

Favorite dueler: Terra.  Duh.
Least favorite dueler: Ultros

Strongest dueler: Terra
Weakest dueler: I'm pretty lenient on Gogo's abilities, so I'll say Banon

Favorite moment in the DL with this game: Terra winning the Godlike title.  It hasn't happened yet, but when it does, that will be my favorite moment with this game.
Least favorite moment in the DL with this game: Terra losing to Ryu3 in season 24 by two freaking votes.  God damnit.

A character you'd like to see added to the game: Doom Gaze, maybe?  He was kinda memorable.
A character you wouldn't have ranked from this game: General Leo

Any other notes/thoughts about the game?  Allow me to reiterate that I am a total Terra fanboy and I am anxiously awaiting the day when she finally wins the Godlike championship.  That will be a day of much jubilation and hullabaloo.


Ogre Battle

Favorite dueler: Either Endora or Rashidi.  They're both pretty cool.
Least favorite dueler: Norn.  For the life of me, I still don't remember anything about her.

Strongest dueler: Rashidi
Weakest dueler: Yushis, probably

Favorite moment in the DL with this game: Fogel vs. Jack in season 27.  I'm still proud of the writeup I submitted for that match.
Least favorite moment in the DL with this game: Fenril beating Rudy

A character you'd like to see added to the game: Nah
A character you wouldn't have ranked from this game: Norn, I guess.  Although I'm sure she's plenty memorable to others.


Any other notes/thoughts about the game? The Sky Knights kick ass and Gares is fun to mock.  Also, yay for Middle champ Tristan.


Suggestions for next time: Wild Arms 2 and Chrono Cross

Final Fantasy 6

Favorite dueller: Terra, Minvera/Ultima/Morph arguments be damned.
Least favorite dueller: Celes? Kefka? Gau? Nah, I'll go with Ultros. Midgame bosses who get hype for earlier forms with rare, rare exceptions piss me off, and he's no different.

Strongest dueller: Kefka
Weakest dueller: Gogo.  This is pretty much unquestionable without morphs, Banon can at least outheal weak damage dealers. Gogo just fails at life and is appalling on defense and damage.

Favorite moment in the DL with this game: Albert Simon beating Gau.
Least favorite moment in the DL with this game: Ultros making it to Godlike. Disgraceful.

A character you'd like to see added to the game: NA.
A character you wouldn't have ranked from this game: General Leo, but we got him already. Everything else is fine for me- yes, personal opinion of Ultros aside, he's an awesome rank and generally what you want from a midboss.

Any other notes/thoughts about the game- Love it as a game, hate it across the board in the DL pretty much.

Ogre Battle

Favorite dueller: Rashidi.
Least favorite dueller: Saradin. Lich hype is a no go.

Strongest dueller: Rashidi.
Weakest dueller: Saradin. Norn's not horrible in the DL thanks to three swings, Saradin's frail and slow and awful at damage. Lyon's just pathetic as well but we didn't rank him.

Favorite moment in the DL with this game: Rashidi going to the finals.
Least favorite moment in the DL with this game: Rika vs Rashidi, or 'lol Rashidi has like .00001 HP'. See Mep.

A character you'd like to see added to the game: NA. Still thinking avoiding the TO characters was the right move here. Lans.. eh, has an outside argument but no .
A character you wouldn't have ranked from this game: Aisha? I opposed the generics, but group voting has changed on that over the years so it's fine.


Any other notes/thoughts about the game?- OB's pretty well documented now as far as the DL goes, so I can't see that being an issue. It's a fun game otherwise- some nice heavies and Rashidi/Endora are different from the usual run of the mill godlike.

Re: Mep- Destin has a canon form which also happens to be his best in the DL, so that shouldn't bother too much.

Final Fantasy 6

Favorite dueller: Gogo.  A Heavy stuck in Light is funny.  I honestly like nearly everyone below Godlike, which is cool.  Umaro is also insane for being a Godlike stuck in freaking Middle.  Just love some of the stuff this cast pulls with arguments too - good times and memories.
Least favorite dueller: Mmm...Terra or Celes.  Just...the old Minerva arguments of the past spring up to me, and I'm never sure what to do with them.  MBlock is even more fun to work with.  Celes probably wins it, I guess.

Strongest dueller: Kefka.  Duh.
Weakest dueller: Uh...mmm...probably Locke, the way I take things.

Favorite moment in the DL with this game: I...uh...
Least favorite moment in the DL with this game: I...uh...struggle to think of one for either of these.

A character you'd like to see added to the game: None, really.  Think the game was good, though Biggs/Wedge are doable.
A character you wouldn't have ranked from this game: None.

Any other notes/thoughts about the game?
Pretty standard fare and a gold standard of the DL.  7/10.

Ogre Battle

Favorite dueller: Blargh.  Aisha, for fun puniness.
Least favorite dueller: Rashidi.  Did not deserve to beat Guido at all, and generally gets loads of respect when he's...not that spectacular against what he's fighting.  Also suckass in-game.  I really felt more threatened by Endora.

Strongest dueller: Rashidi, I suppose.  Still wish I knew how I took their actions.
Weakest dueller: Aisha. 

Favorite moment in the DL with this game: Uh...none really.
Least favorite moment in the DL with this game: Rashidi beating Guido.

A character you'd like to see added to the game: Oddly, some of the TO characters I think would have been good ranks.
A character you wouldn't have ranked from this game: For all that I don't like it, can't see much to boot.

Any other notes/thoughts about the game?
Not a fan of the game much, not a fan of it in the DL.  Just...bleh.  2/10.

Final Fantasy 6

Favorite dueller: Terra or Strago. Terra is an awesome godlike PC with all sorts of tricks besides damage, and Strago has a cool, if often impractical, skillset.
Least favorite dueller: I... tend not to like Locke as much as the rest, I guess?

Strongest dueller: Kefka. Smashes. Face.
Weakest dueller: Gogo, I guess.

Favorite moment in the DL with this game: Ultros champing Heavy!
Least favorite moment in the DL with this game: Urrr... Terra losing to Ryu3.

A character you'd like to see added to the game: No one.
A character you wouldn't have ranked from this game: Good rank.

Any other notes/thoughts about the game? Ignoring silly arguments - most are either about Minerva, or letting Ultros use Lete River form recently - it's a great game in the DL with lots of variety.

I'd also like to hype Cyan for light champ, on account of me playing every FF ever in Wait mode... >_>

Really! He'd be a decent middle if he had Wait mode on! Sadly can't justify voting that way even to myself though...

Final Fantasy 6

Favorite dueller: Mmm. Edgar, I guess, mostly because I like Edgar as a character and he's a fun (if unlucky) status whore.
Least favorite dueller: I want to say Gau, because in-game the tricks he does in the DL are just psyduck. In fact, he's just kind of psyduck in game in general, and gets this insane DL hype (which seems... fairly deserved? like I'm going to research FF6 mechanics to find out). I also dislike Terra because her being allowed Ultima was one of those moments where I was just like "What the fuck?" to the general concensus when I learned about it, but it's not a huge deal since she get another spell that is similarily potent, although her statusing hype also comes off of overlevelled (at least Stone is, IIRC) spells, which really bothers me. Cyan robs people, but since Melody was one of them I forgive him. And because he got smacked down by Sigurd right after that. <_<

Note to Meeple: No, I don't want to argue about Gau's in-game worth. Let's talk about Megaman. ^_^

Strongest dueller: Kefka. Kind of a no-brainer unless you really disrespect his HP. And I certainly don't, I probably have more respect for him than most.
Weakest dueller: Gogo. He just doesn't really do much unless you allow him other people's skillsets. Which I haven't really thought about, but probably not.

Favorite moment in the DL with this game: As much as I'm not a huge Kefka fan, him thrashing Luca was an awesome end to an insulting Luca run.
Least favorite moment in the DL with this game: Celes vs. Citan. Hate.

A character you'd like to see added to the game: ~
A character you wouldn't have ranked from this game: ~

Any other notes/thoughts about the game? Not really.

Ogre Battle

Favorite dueller: Fogel, although his awesome doesn't translate as well as it should, since it doesn't take like 100 physicals to kill him. Still an unholy tank from hell. He's kind of like one of those High Heavy tank bosses that I love, except he's not a boss. (Well, he is, but I'm not taking his boss form. :P) Endora is also very neat, and I like her a lot.
Least favorite dueller: I like all of them.

Strongest dueller: Rashidi. Endora's just a weaker version of him and everyone else is clearly worse.
Weakest dueller: The clerics. I don't allow people to switch rows mid-fight.

Favorite moment in the DL with this game: Fenril getting to the finals was pretty badass.
Least favorite moment in the DL with this game: See Mep. The HP antihype got pretty ridiculous.

A character you'd like to see added to the game: Lans, Warren, Canopus, Deneb. Why they aren't ranked and trash like Aisha and Yushis are is something that has always mystified me.
A character you wouldn't have ranked from this game: I think the rankings should be less retarded, but that could be changed by the suggestions above rather than unranking people.


Any other notes/thoughts about the game? Nope.

Lunar 1 and FF9 next.

Favorite dueller: Terra. Fanboyism I guess.
Least favorite dueller: Kefka. *Warning: rant* Hey, I know! Lets take Havok Wing against a front-row party and hype speed that if it actually mattered you would match just by using storebought stuff!!!! Hey I know! LETS CALL PEOPLE LIARS WHEN THEY CLAIM TO HAVE INSTANT-DOUBLED HIS FIRST TURN. YEAH! LIAR LIAR PANTS ON FIRE!!!! [/bitterness] I'm tempted to keep his auto-action upon being knocked below 55% HP (thereabouts) being Goner. Like Dario, only funnier. Combine with forced Fallen One opening for frue Godlike comedy!

Strongest dueller: Kefka. Speed+Boss immunities+OHKO damage. Not quite as crazy as I've seen said.
Weakest dueller: Cyan. Or possibly Locke. One or the other.

Favorite moment in the DL with this game: Uhh... Terra almost winning a championship? Celes having a well-disputed match with Jessica?
Least favorite moment in the DL with this game: Kefka beating False Althena. Or maybe Sabin beating Cameela? ;_;

A character you'd like to see added to the game: Ranked fine as is.
A character you wouldn't have ranked from this game: Leo is gone, its all good.

Any other notes/thoughts about the game? I like it! Even guys like Setzer are neat. I don't like the Kefka hype, and so help me if anyone ever, ever hypes Ultros Dive-healing his way to a win I will rip the blasphemer's head off and stick hot pokers down his neck.

Favorite dueller: Edgar. Doesn't rely on illegal equips, the voter being an utter retard with battle formations, hype for abilities gotten only at ludicrously above end-game levels, or other related crap.
Least favorite dueller: Kefka. Hype for a character with overhyped offense with shitty durability is insane.

Strongest dueller: Terra? None of the cast breaks High Heavy.
Weakest dueller: Gogo. No question, really.

Favorite moment in the DL with this game: Leo getting the boot.
Least favorite moment in the DL with this game: Kefka champing over Fou Lu.

A character you'd like to see added to the game: None, it's already overrepresented by a midgame boss
A character you wouldn't have ranked from this game: UTLROS. GOD FUCKING ULTROS.

Any other notes/thoughts about the game?

The interpretations most people have come up for with this game are horrible.

Least favorite dueller: Kefka.

Strongest dueller: ...With FF6a's equips, as I play through it? Gau has a definite argument, now. Without it, Kefka.
Weakest dueller: ...Cyan? I give Relm Control and Gogo skill choice. I... think that makes him the worst?

Favorite dueller: Terra, I think.
Least favorite dueller: Kefka for sure. Mostly on the speed hype. I used to not be all that fond of Strago or Celes since Vanish can be kind of urk, but not really mind them anymore.

Strongest dueller: Kefka
Weakest dueller: Cyan. I also give Gogo skill choice! And I hope he never gets in!

Favorite moment in the DL with this game: Terra doing well is good!
Least favorite moment in the DL with this game: Ultros or Kefka being in.

A character you'd like to see added to the game: None
A character you wouldn't have ranked from this game: Ultros. Early boss with inconsitent forms=a type of dueller I don't like! Especially when I can't really plot wank any reason for the differences

Ogre Battle

Favorite dueller: None really.
Least favorite dueller: Rashidi. Ugh, multi acting bosses tend to get on my nerves a lot.

Strongest dueller: Rashidi
Weakest dueller: Someone

Favorite moment in the DL with this game: I did like Tristain doing well, just because he was cool in Middle.
Least favorite moment in the DL with this game: Rashidi beating Guido was pretty out there.

A character you'd like to see added to the game: None.
A character you wouldn't have ranked from this game: You know...it's not like I specifically remember the characters from in game, so I feel extremely unfit to speak on this category.

Any other notes/thoughts about the game?
Sometimes the character have elemental weaknesses. That is cool.

Favorite dueller: Edgar. Just like him.
Least favorite dueller: Uh. To be frank, I can't think of any good reasons to hate any of them. And all the ones I dislike are too close to call one.

Strongest dueller: No clue whatsoever! And thus I weasel out of the question.
Weakest dueller: ...Banon, I think.

Favorite moment in the DL with this game: Ultros w/Behind the Scenes for a copout answer.
Least favorite moment in the DL with this game: No clue.

A character you'd like to see ranked from the game: CRANES
A character you'd like to see deranked from this game: Don't have a problem with anyone currently ranked.

Ogre Battle

Favorite dueller: I don't think I have one to be honest.
Least favorite dueller: Gares. For being annoying ingame.

Strongest dueller: I guess that's Rashidi. Sigh.
Weakest dueller: God only knows.

Favorite moment in the DL with this game: NO
Least favorite moment in the DL with this game: NO

A character you'd like to see ranked from the game: I find myself compelled to say that witch that I forgot the name of.
A character you'd like to see deranked from this game: I see no-one worth deranking.

Favorite dueller: Hmm...Mog? Sure. Tankity tank with a semi-random moveset that can let him NOT DIE TO ANYTHING EVER is fun.
Least favorite dueller: Celes. She gets alot of status whoring hype, and I don't like status whores. There are probably some in the cast more offensive about this, but she gets more hype then they do.

Strongest dueller: Kefka. SMASH and such.
Weakest dueller: Uh...Banon? I'm not sure what I give Gogo, really. Keep waffling on him/her/it/whatever and whether I allow skills or not.

Favorite moment in the DL with this game: Mog vs Marisa. Sure, he lost that fight, but I had a ball writing up that result, and it was a good fight.
Least favorite moment in the DL with this game: Hmm...dunno.

A character you'd like to see added to the game: Think we got everything we can from this.
A character you wouldn't have ranked from this game: And none of it's worth tossing. *punts Ultros hate*

Any other notes/thoughts about the game?

Ogre Battle

Favorite dueller: Fogel. As I'm sure anyone who's played RPGmon with me can attest to. <_<
Least favorite dueller: Don't really have one. Nobody from OB annoys me.

Strongest dueller: Rashidi. Offense respect checking in, and I don't see his durability as nearly as bad as alot of people seem to. He's not durable, especially by Godlike standards, but he's not made of frikkin tissue paper either.
Weakest dueller: Uh, Yushis, I guess? I let OB folks swap positions between rounds, so the Clerics aren't that bad.

Favorite moment in the DL with this game: Winning more then 1 RPGmon as Fogel? Seriously though, I'll say Tris finally getting that championship. 'bout time.
Least favorite moment in the DL with this game: 'lol Rashidi has like .00001 HP' is pretty obnoxious, yes.

A character you'd like to see added to the game: Quoth the Ciato-
Quote
Lans, Warren, Canopus, Deneb. Why they aren't ranked and trash like Aisha and Yushis are is something that has always mystified me.
A character you wouldn't have ranked from this game: Also see Ciato.


Any other notes/thoughts about the game?

Final Fantasy 6

Favorite dueller: Shadow. He's a fun heavy with his various tricks.  Physical walling, Interceptor, ID weapon, evade piercing and so on all make for a strong dueller.
Least favorite dueller: KEFKA. Oh hi, Havoc Wing can hit hard! That's great, just ignore everything else! HP? What's that? I just say I kill everyone instantly HAHAHAHAHAHA!

Strongest dueller: You know, I really don't know. I don't allow the Minerva and I have zero Kefka respect, so it's like a 6 way race.
Weakest dueller: Cyan. He's godawful, but at least in Light he has a prayer.

Favorite moment in the DL with this game: Kefka losing to Belial. I'm not a fan of Belial, but that was a nice fuck you to another season of Kefka hype.
Least favorite moment in the DL with this game: Shadow vs Nel. No matter who won someone awesome came up on top.

A character you'd like to see added to the game: General Leo.
A character you wouldn't have ranked from this game: Ultros. The hype he gets is the epitome of DL issues.

Any other notes/thoughts about the game?

I like FF6 in the DL on the average, it just happens to have some -really obnoxious- views around it.

Ogre Battle

Favorite dueller: Debonair
Least favorite dueller: Mmm. Endora. I feel like she's a spare cog in Godlike. My opinion of her has steadily dropped.

Strongest dueller: Rashidi.
Weakest dueller: Norn. All those clerics wish she could be pretty princesses instead.

Favorite moment in the DL with this game: Fenril nearly winning Heavy. Tough luck with KOSMOS.
Least favorite moment in the DL with this game: Eh.

A character you'd like to see added to the game: None. It's reasonably represented.
A character you wouldn't have ranked from this game: Aisha. We only need one shitty cleric in the DL. This isn't critical.

Any other notes/thoughts about the game?

It's decent in the higher ranks, boring in the lowers. This balances out.
* Infinite_Ko_Loop is now known as Ko-CidisnotaPrincess
<Nephrite> That is depressing.
<CmdrKing> I know.  Cid would makea  great princess.

No, they wish they were Muses. Princess are worse than Clerics in the DL.

Princesses were worse Mages (The rank that gets MT, forget name) that had an element to roxor the Dark alligned characters is all. (Diablo)  Pretty much all the MT whores suck in the DL unless you allow Lich.

Umaro is also insane for being a Godlike stuck in freaking Middle.

Curious here OK.  Is this something from FF6a or am I seriously missing some Umaro hype?

OK is on what they call drugs. Or maybe EVILTYPE UMARO HYPE? Or something.

Even with a vast amount of drugs that's pretty crazy... unless you say no equipment for anyone, meaning Umaro (who comes with it) is teh godlike character!  (Of course by this logic Kefka is now an unbeatable godlike with 200% speed, 300%PCHP damage, and good durability.)

Final Fantasy 6

Favorite dueler: Terra. If you didn't see this coming, you REALLY don't know me.
Least favorite dueller: Gogo, I guess.  Complete lack of tricks + interp issues regarding skills sometimes come up that makes him about 10x better suddenly, and he sucks.

Strongest dueler: Kefka. Massive damage + Speed output, some status on the side with Train, counters, the works.
Weakest dueler: Gogo. Banon w/ more speed, but less evasion and no Healing. LOSING TRADE.

Favorite moment in the DL with this game: Ultros in BtS works for me.
Least favorite moment in the DL with this game: Cyan beating Melody works too.  Much of an FF6 fan as I am, no way in hell he deserved to win that fight.

A character you'd like to see added to the game: Goddesses, though like Elfboy, I am not going to push for them.
A character you wouldn't have ranked from this game: None offhand, well ranked and such.

Ogre Battle

Favorite dueler: The Dragoons.  They all kind of meld together, for all that Fogel > Slust > Fenril feels obvious for worth, but yeah. Decent duelers and not offensive.
Least favorite dueler: MIZAL! ...who isn't ranked; I say this purely cause Super keeps trying to kill me with her <.<
On a more serious note, Rashidi.  Gets annoying hype in ways I don't get, such like having a shred of HP respect...

Strongest dueler: Rashidi.  For all that he's still better than just about all duelers in the game anyway.
Weakest dueler:  Yushis.  Feels like she's the Monks, except without any healing, and completely Holy Based damage.

Favorite moment in the DL with this game: Celes beating Endora. Showed that the hype she was getting wasn't QUITE enough.
Least favorite moment in the DL with this game: Rashidi vs. Guido.  I don't have to explain this one.

A character you'd like to see added to the game: Ranked well enough and such.
A character you wouldn't have ranked from this game: See above.  I guess one of the filler PCs we have ranked or something but...yeah.
