This isn't something you see everyday in the DL arena: A Shining Force character - a physical brawler, no less - with more variety than his opponent! All jokes aside, Gong is a force to be reckoned with in this fight. His damage isn't impressive, true, but he can heal himself fully, and going up against utter mediocrity like Jayle that could be all the difference he needs. Jayle's damage is pretty shabby, so Gong will most likely have plenty of turns to whale away at the Einherjar, after which he can lesiurely Cure 3 or 4 himself back up to shape. With no other real options in this battle, Jayle is forced into a battle of attrition, which she most certaintly can not win. It's as simple as that. With an already-dead transvestite down, and the rest of Light to face, Gong might not have the most bragging rights, but he's certainly capable enough to go far!
