Season 7, Week 3
Necron
(Final Fantasy IX)
 
The Colour Out of Space, the Heart of Darkness, the Shadow Over Innsmouth... though all of these are actually novellas, any one could easily be used as a title for this fearsome combatant. Necron commands somewhat of a mastery over space-time, giving him four shots of magic from his powerful arsenal to each of his opponent's actions; and whether he chooses to invoke either the debilitating status of Grand Cross or the crippling power of Neutron Ring, the result will likely be the same. If he can withstand the brunt of T.G. Cid's awesome offensive with his suspect durability, this Lovecraft-inspired behemoth of blackness looks ready to float through with a win.

Having proved that Serge was no match for the Thunder God, Orlandu now faces a terrible villian, one bent on stopping him right here and now! Indeed, Necron is quite capable of throwing a barrage of spells Cid's way, making the Thundergod's task a trying one. However, with the massive speed Excalibur offers coupled with Night Sword and Holy Explosion, his offense is far from lacking. Considering Necron's relative fragility, can Orlandu overwhelm the blue monster before he gets magick'ed to death?

It is said the Holy Stones can react to the bearer's strongest desires.

Posessing both the Holy Stone 'Libra' and a copy of Final Fantasy 9, the natural desire to eradicate Necron and stop one last lame plot hole manifested itself in Orlandu's heart.


One nifty cutscene later, Necron was now a hopping rabbit with permanent Don't Act. The world rejoiced, and a single Stasis Sword ended things for good.

Necron > PC

Orlandu's used to being the fastest blade in Ivalice. So it's going to be a bit of a shock for him when Necron gets the first move in their fight. It'll be more of a shock when Blue Shockwave does its job.

But, of course, the real shock comes when the Thundaga follow-up topples the Thunder God like a sapling. After all, automatic Haste is nothing when the enemy inspires the phrase "quadra-turn".

Necron, the embodiment of pain, suffering and death, versus Orlandu, the Holy Swordsman. Let's look at the facts. Necron has well 50,000 HP. Orlandu's game max HP could only 999. Necron's basic attack deals at 1,500 damaage per attack. Even if Orlandu gets the first attack with Holy Explosion, it only did about 800 damage per hit.
Now if his stats are raised in proportion to characters in FFIX, we're still talking about a final boss versus one PC. Its a matter of statistics.
