Newbie here: Can Stocke equip set-ups null Confuse, and can his Mana Burst do enough damage to Momo?
Good question! RH does not have confuse (or anything particularly similar), so I wouldn't see any RH statusblocker as doing anything against it. If you're more generous on statusblockers than me, you could argue that Sky Drops, due to resisting all four RH status effects, would also resist all status effects from other games, and that would certainly give Stocke a shot. His Mana Burst absolutely kills MOMO if he gets it off.
Godlike:
Mewtwo (PKMN) vs. Shania (SH:FtNW): Rematch. Once again, RBY takes this, other forms are a headache.
Heavy:
Nel Zelpher (SO3) vs. Lady Elmina Harken (WA:ACF): Rematch. Kneejerk that good ice damage is too much.
Middle:
MOMO Mizrahi (XSs) vs. Stocke (RH): See above. To me, MOMO just lands confuse and cruises, since Stocke's basic physical is not scary.
Light:
Marianne von Edmund (FE3H) vs. Zhuzhen Liu (SH1): Rematch. Zhuzhen still hates the combination of regen and magic durability.
Pools!
Magus (CT), Zio (PSIV), Odd Eye (ShF2), Chris Lightfellow (S3), Nel (SO2), Harken (WA:ACF)
Chris has about 0.4/0.75 durability.
Chris beats Odd Eye by immuning sleep and tanking all his damage (he has a 3RKO on her so she can alternate healing and attacking), and beats Magus by healing off his low damage and counting the ITD effect of crits kicking in eventually. Zio is too much for her though (he 2HKOs with Black Wave, and his physical probably manages a 3HKO so he'll outslug under Silent Lake). She beats Nel via parry rate reducing freeze to turn 3. Harken is probably too much as well, since she'll need two phyicals before Phoenix can kill, which lets Harken get off too good a Maximum Risk. 3-2
Zio is pretty hopeless against Magus if the latter spams the fire or ice barrier. But he beats Chris, outslugs Odd Eye (similar offence, better HP), can chip-then-smash against Harken, and I'd vote for him over Nel too (overwhelms her non-full healing). 4-1
Magus loses to Chris, beats Zio. He beats Harken by unloading ice damage at the right time, beats Odd Eye by countering his weak beams for real damage, but loses to Nel who can turtle through his defensive game. 3-2
Nel beats Harken and Magus, but loses to Chris and Zio. Odd Eye just overwhelms her too. 2-3.
Odd Eye beats Nel, but loses to Chris/Magus/Zio. Against Harken... kinda feel like he's in trouble, since his normal attacks run into parry and Odd Eye Beam isn't that strong, he's likely to face a powerful Maximum Risk. 1-4.
Harken beats Chris and Odd Eye. 2-3.
This would result in
Nel up, Odd Eye down. Not... a totally unreasonable result, I suppose.
Heavy: Lyndis (FE7), Maya Schrodinger (WA3), Therion (OT), MOMO (XS1), Stocke (RH)
Maya > Lyn. Maya OHKOs; Lyn can 2HKO her but not in a way that avoids Calamity Jane.
Lyn > Therion. Even debuffing Lyn's attack doesn't stop the 2RKO, provided she doubles (and I'm strongly inclined to say she does, Octopath speed is so trashy). To make matters worse Aebar might just miss.
Lyn > MOMO. Doesn't care about confuse, shreds.
Lyn > Stocke. Still 2RKOs, doens't have.
Therion > Maya. He can debuff her offence and tank her gatling guns until he OHKOs on turn 3.
Maya > MOMO. Doesn't fear confuse, does too much damage surely.
Maya > Stocke. Kinda close but Maya going first seals it, I think.
MOMO > Therion. Confuse wrecks him too badly, I think.
Therion > Stocke. Corrode Armour and then OHKO with Aebar, Stocke just misses the 2HKO it looks like.
MOMO > Stocke.
Maya 3-1
Lyn 3-1
MOMO 2-2
Therion 2-2
Stocke 0-4
MOMO and Therion could trade, I suppose.
Middle: Clive Winslett (WA3), Bowser (SMRPG), Albel Nox (SO3), Marianne (FE3H), Zhuzhen (SH1)
Albel > Clive. Clive can't win until turn 3 with Gatling (Lock-On x2 gets eaten by Vampire Flash) and I have to imagine Albel either 3HKOs or 4-3s.
Albel > Bowser. Even under Fear he heals enough to recover from Bowser's attacks, and then Bowser runs out of MP and he's toast.
Albel > Marianne. Better at the same game.
Albel > Zhuzehn. lol.
Bowser > Clive. Goes first, drops Fear, and suddenly the kill point is way out of reach for Clive.
Bowser > Marianne. After fear, he 2HKOs through Renewal and two halved Nosferatus.
Zhuzhen > Bowser. This one is close. Zhuzhen needs to heal after each fear-buffed physical (even the one where fear wears off), but wins on his fourth Corpse Arm. He can use Corpse Arm on turn 1, 5, 9, and 10 to try for the win. This takes 430 MP. After that he should barely win, I think, ~2.5 physicals (would be 4 but a doubleturn comes around now, and fear might still be in play) and one Flames of Fudo does it.
Clive > Marianne. 2HKOs with Lock-On through anything Marianne does. Marianne wishes she had a reason spell to double with, Nos/Blutgang are too heavy.
Clive > Zhuzhen. His physicals heal-lock, then Gatling comes along.
Marianne > Zhuzhen.
Albel 4-0
Bowser 2-2
Clive 2-2
Marianne 1-3
Zhuzhen 1-3
No ranking changes, provided Mitsuru can take care of herself.
