Week 3 - Quarterfinals




Fou-Lu (BoF4) Fou-Lu vs Sofia Sofia (DW4)

superaielman
"I shall be avenged!"

Before the match even started, the crazed Winglie Lloyd attempted to make good on his long ago promise to smite Fou-Lu. His opening physical missed Fou-Lu. The interference was enough to get Sofia DQ'ed, though.

Sofia was not happy. Spotting a certain godlike in the stands, Sofia smiled and cast one of her trademark spells..

-Outside the arena-

"Curses... curses! I shall avenge myself!" Brushing himself off, Lloyd walked away from the arena, and right in front of a rather tall silver haired man.

"Sephiroth!?" Lloyd looked all around, and tried to flee. He couldn't move fast enough, and the incoming Masamune strikes cut the Winglie to ribbons.

After Lloyd was properly punished, Transform ended. Sofia smiled, happy that she had managed at least a moral victory upon this day.

Fou-Lu: 35
Sofia: 5

MepMep
W00t... Sofia pwn the overhyped dragon god!




Luca Blight (S2) Luca Blight vs Sephiroth Sephiroth (FF7)

AAA
With probably two of the most famous madmen(only Kefka, I believe, eclipses them) in all of RPG history squaring off, you would expect a very bloody confrontation, wouldn't you? At the least, it would be a very interesting affair, as Sephiroth's megalomania and Luca's all-consuming rage would spark into a giant clash of brute strength and subtle sorcery. Dissapointingly, the match quickly ended up being a lopsided affair as Luca futily hacked away at Sephiroth under Wall, until eventually Sephiroth managed to send Luca packing.

Luca Blight: 18
Sephiroth: 37

MasteroftheGame
It's fugging Luca. How can he lose to that pansyass white haired nut?




Myria (BoFs) Myria vs Chris Lightfellow Chris Lightfellow (S3)

Meeplelard
Myria opened the match in an unexpected way against Chris.

"Will you be my friend?"

With such an innocent line like that, coming from such a sweet girl...how could Chris refuse? Or evne more, how could she even think about harming her...it was then Myria transformed into giant Hydra form and smacked Chris around when her guard was down.

Moral of the story: Never trust a little girl who wants friends

Myria: 29
Chris Lightfellow: 17


Albert Simon (SH1) Albert Simon vs Melfice Melfice (G2)

Meeplelard
You know, it sucks when your last name is "Bacon" against the man who invented the Wailing Soul Soup.

Albert Simon: 10
Melfice: 26




Keith Valentine (SH1) Keith Valentine vs Isaac Isaac (GS)

AAA
So, through a large amount of luck, Keith ends up beating several good opponents and making his way this far. He joins his bishie brethern Sephiroth and Jowy in the winner's circle, leaving Issac a bloody pulp. Poor Issac. I guess he didn't realize that bishie's always win in the end.

I suppose one could mention that Isaac went insane and offed himself after listing to Keith happily blab on about how awesome his sword is to nobody in particular, but let's just skip that little detail, shall we?

Keith Valentine: 24
Isaac: 6


Auron (FFX) Auron vs Id Id (XG)

MepMep
Hmm... Auron power breaks... gets hit twice countering... low HP gets his final turn and wins it with a super powered hit...

Auron: 31
Id: 21


Jowy Atreides (S2) Jowy Atreides vs Marsilio Marsilio (SO2)

AAA
Marsillo ain't the strongest of the Wise men, but that certaintly doesn't stop him. He happily shreds apart your party once, and even though he is eventually defeated he still puts up quite a fight. He does this, mind you, with only Cruelly Rushes and his stats, not anything cheap like Indy's spell spamming or Berle's Meta-Shield cheese. So, all in all, he's pretty respectable.

However, there's no real way he could stand against Jowy and his Black Sword Rune.

Jowy Atreides: 34
Marsilio: 9


Wugui (SH1) Wugui vs Geddoe Geddoe (S3)

Nanashi
For all the power bestowed upon Geddoe by the True Lightning Rune, none of them will stop him from keeling over after the onslaught of sound effects and still shots of he and his opponent that lead up Wugui going into the crane stance.

...someone should really ask Wugui how that hell something like that constitutes ID.

Wugui: 25
Geddoe: 15




Jerin (Lufia1) Jerin vs Lufia Lufia (Lufia1)

Grefter
Lufia has been completely and totally outclassed here, by someone from her own game even. Remember why she was back in light? This is why.

Jerin: 31
Lufia: 13


Mara (DW4) Mara vs Seifer Almasy Seifer Almasy (FF8)

Meeplelard
...Mara, beat a boss...with THAT durability? Surely you jest...

Mara: 6
Seifer Almasy: 37


Amarant Coral (FF9) Amarant Coral vs Maya Amano Maya Amano (Pers2)

OblivionKnight
Amarant, well-trained in the arts of self-control and physical combat, was unfraid of fighting a Maya in the arena. He had nothing to fear: he had the strength, he had the moves...nothing could go wrong.

Unfortunately, something did go wrong. Maya's overly positive attitude - ripe with beautiful Engrish - was something the monk had never had to bear for extended periods of time. After only a minute, the mercenary lost all self-control, and wildly tossed blades all around the arena. Unfortunately for him, these blades happened to strike a several little girls in the front row, causing Albedo to go into a berserker rage and slaughter the hapless fool.

On a positive note, Maya won. On an even weirder note, Albedo got a standing ovation for the first time in his life.

Amarant Coral: 13
Maya Amano: 20


Beatrice (WA3) Beatrice vs Bowman Jean Bowman Jean (SO2)

Xeroma
Beatrice is good with making the enemy take a snooze.

Couple that with the fact that Bowman sucks, and you have another victory for the Dream Demon.

And her opponent next week will probably end up the same way. Stupid 100% sleep attacks.

Beatrice: 24
Bowman Jean: 13




Cecile (S3) Cecile vs Luccia Luccia (CC)

Andrewrouge
As per a proper soldier's duty, Cecile arrived a good solid 10 minutes early to the match and stood ramrod straight as she waited for her opponent to arrive. And wait she did.

As a castle guard, long hours of standing at ready are right up her alley. She exhibited that quality quite well in this match, as it was finally called several hours later, Luccia never having arrived.

Apparently experementation on mermaids is far more interesting than trying to fight hopeless battles with young human girls.

Cecile: 36
Luccia: 9


Olan Durai (FFT) Olan Durai vs Jacques Jacques (S3)

superaielman
Jacques's accuracy with a crossbow is to be feared.

Olan's physical, when not against the likes of Big Joe, is not.

Olan Durai: 20
Jacques: 29


Slash (CT) Slash vs Irvine Kinneas Irvine Kinneas (FF8)

Jo ou Ranbu
The support of Galbadia's cheerleading squad made all the difference for Irvine in this match, though. You just can't beat stupid girls who have a thing for ponytailed losers, and Slash didn't get any prettier after getting slaughtered by a slut student union. Fortunately, when Irvine got home after his losing duel, Selphie rightfully bashed him on the head using her nunchakus and her unbearably obnoxious sugar-addict behaviour patterns.

Slash: 28
Irvine Kinneas: 25


Banon (FF6) Banon vs Ronfar Ronfar (Lunar2)

Hunter Sopko
Seeing as this match wouldn't be won by brawns or damage, and since healing can't kill either opponent, Banon and Ronfar decided to have it be an old school pimp off. They each set out to bring back the best looking girl they could muster.

Ronfar, of course, brought Mauri. He recieved high marks from judges Meis Triumph and Sheena Lepant, although the third judge was rather indifferent. Total Score- 10-10-2 = 22

Banon, bless his heart, was reduced to bringing in Relm to showcase. Meis and Sheena nodded in approval, but deducted points for her age. However, the third judge was ecstatic, giving her the highest marks possible. Total Score- 5-5-10 = 20

This made Banon the winner. However, the third judge did not like this at all, and began his own rampage, which was quickly put down by DL security. Luckily, Ronfar was uninjured and able to proceed to the next round.

The real moral of the story: Never make Albedo a judge for a beauty pageant.

Banon: 26
Ronfar: 27

Dance Off

Rikku vs Meru vs Jean vs Fujin
~Dhyerwolf


superaielman
Seifer stood and stared at the various women. Boring, boring, BORING. What he wanted was spirit. What he wanted was fire. What he wanted was RAGE.

Seifer's gaze wandered over to the one eyed woman chasing Raijin, and grinned.

The parade was a smash hit. The one eyed woman, if fearsome in appearance, had grace and style and lead the parade with ease.

The crowd was slightly curious, though. Why was the parade leader and his friend covered in boot marks?


Jean: 18
Rikku: 11
Meru: 5
Fujin: 19

MepMep
Dude... no Mog in the dance contast? Rikku wins this one with ease then.

Grefter
There is a decided lack of an option that involves fire or death in this dance off competition. How disappointing.

DragoonJay
Picture it this way. In order for Rolf and Lin to win, they'd have to survive for a while out in the Phantasy Star 2 overworld, which means a fair bit of levelling. In order for Ashley to stop the earthquakes, he first has to go through the annoying cave to Sundletan, and then find out that he has to go to another cave. In order for Frog and the SeeDs to rescue Rinoa, they have to clear the Guardia cathedral.

Team Seifer already knows where to go, and their dungeon is the shortest (not to mention reasonably linear). I think they accomplish their task first, but Rinoa gets captured a few more times as they try to get back home.


SeeD and Frog: 18
Rolf and Lin: 10
Ashley: 15
