Hugo (Suikoden III) vs Nel Zelpher (Star Ocean: Till the End of Time) - Well, good news is Freezing Daggers is faster than Wind of Sleep or Hugo's physical. Problem is... the evade, man, the fucking evade. It doesn't help that nothing else Nel does is faster than Hugo's relevant moves in this battle and he has multiple venues to win. Heal-locking, putting pressure with Wind of Sleep... though, really, just heal-locking with his physical with that evade alone just makes the fight a nightmare for Nel. She just can't really make it happen without ramming into that and it ruins her so bad.
Mesdoram Elmdore (Final Fantasy Tactics) vs Hope Estheim (Final Fantasy XIII) - Haste/Faith into a OHKO, probably. That's how much I respect his HP.
Adray Lasbard (Star Ocean Till the End of Time) vs Hubert von Vestra (Fire Emblem: Three Houses) - Hm. Adray actually can be heal-locked if barely with the threat of Miasma counters and Hubert should go first. Problem is Reflection just lols at that and now Adray probably can just get himself up with his healing and then win via Ice Needles spam on turns where he's not suffering a death threat. Don't think a crit comes up before that either.
