    soldier, i guess. they're more focused on fighting, i think. from the little time i played ffviii, i find seed rather weak compared to soldier. its all opinion though, all opinion.
    warning: i am NOT funny.

    SeeD are just military academy fighters

    Soldiers are genetically modified super humans


    Is it really a debate.. ?

    Well all the First Class Soldiers you meet do end up dying in the end so yes it is abit of a debate.

    Well Zack and Sephiroth are the only SOLDIERS i can actually think of though.

    You fight generic First, Second, and Third class SOLDIERS all throughout the game, starting in midgar, contuining at Junon, and then finally you encounter first class soldiers in the raid on Midgar.

    Fact of the matter is, SeeDs were weak unless equipped with GFs, in which case you could consider them to be super humans. However, unequip the GFs, they are still SeeDs, just very weak ones who wouldnt be able to do much.

    Soldiers, by definition, are modified. You can't "unmodify" them, because that would mean they arent soldiers anymore, just normal people. Soldiers without that modification arent SOLDIER at all.

    Thus, if you ARE a SOLDIER, you are automatically genetically enhanced- SeeD is not necessarily so, remove the GF and they are nothing.

    Which are also considerably weaker without their GFs modifying their strength and magic ability

    Group of genetically modified and mako infused super humans trained in the art of death vs a bunch of emo wrist cutting teenagers. The answer is obvious here.

    No one's THAT happy. Really Selphie is just covering her angst and depression in a cloud of caffeine and sugar rushes with a fake hyperactive personality. Deep down she really cuts too.

    Oh please, two FF1 Fighters with two FF1 Red Mages backing them would lay an obscene smackdown on them all, fry their eyes over easy and feed them to Headmaster Cid.

    But hey, if you're like me and somehow feel constantly compelled to consider battle mechanics then SOLDIER, simply because those guys get Final Attack-Revive what with their extreme proficiency with Materia, causing them to be virtually undefeatable anyway.

    SOLDIER members have to be mentally strong before they can even get accepted into the force, and once they've made it, their minds and bodies get strengthened to truly superhuman levels with spirit energy and Jenova cells. This makes them impervious to damage that'd easily kill any regular person, and in the case of the elite First Class SOLDIERs, gives them strength, agility and reflexes that are basically unrivaled.

    SeeD are teenagers who're taught that you should kill whoever you're told to, so that your boss gets some money from the client.


    *votes SOLDIER*

    Sure, there are some gifted fighters in SeeD, especially those who find an actual, moral cause to fight for. And in SOLDIER, there are plenty of warriors who lose to a ragtag assortment of fighters who're utterly dedicated to their journey to save the world. But overall, SOLDIER's easily a stronger, more disciplined and militarily superior force than SeeD.
