Season 58, Week 4
Banon
(Final Fantasy VI)
 
Banon's cunning plan for Light conquest continues. It's straight-forward, but brutally effective: heal against losers who can't keep up consistent damage until they die of old age. Gordon's standard strike is nothing to fear, and the fabled Gordon Blitz? Ha! He'll devour his limited SP in no time as Banon cheerfully heals his attacks off while he gets nowhere fast. It's questionable if Gordon can even defeat Banon in two strikes, which would render the point entirely moot anyway. Banon's settling in for another nice, slow, relaxing match, just the way he likes them - he'll drink to his own Health repeatedly as Gordon meets Labyrinthia's sad fate!

Haha! Junior Defenders of Earth, look at this week's battle! Captain Gordon faces off against the - presumably! - evil Banon! You might think Banon is an innocent person intent only on helping the world against The Empire... but you would be wrong! Banon is clearly an evil-doer masquerading as a "hero"! That is completely inexcusable to a true Defender of Earth! Thankfully, Gordon has an easy win this week! Banon's durability and speed are so pitiful that a few rounds of Gordon Spark will turn him into a pile of dastardly goop. Fear not, Junior Defenders, the Captain has this p-e-r-f-e-c-t-l-y under control!

It's hard to picture Gordon as a trendsetter for anyone who's familiar with him. However, by taking advantage of the latest trend,

"Hyper Viper Beam!"

...um, not that. It's by taking advantage of the fad of sleep effects, Gordon has a chance of victory. While having his fellow Defenders of Earth fight alongside him is clearly illegal, the fickle judges ruled that putting Banon to sleep with their flashy intro is OK. So does Gordon maximize his initiative and win with a single well placed headshot or does he whiff repeatedly and receive a flimsy rod beatdown in spite of a preemptive strike?

Banon: 19
Gordon: 30
