The first time I fought Emerald Weapon in FFVII, I fought with all the meticulously strategic system-abusing precautions that surround all these hyper-difficult optional boss fights, but I was still losing the battle. The beast slowly wore my party deeper and deeper into the ocean floor, until it finally looked like Cloud and company were on the brink of destruction. Final Attack + Phoenix had already activated five times, so there was no hope of any convenient auto-resurrection.

I had given up all hope and was already planning out my second try when I noticed that Cait Sith was up for his Limit Break, and there were only a few seconds remaining before Emmy's next turn would come up and she'd deliver the finishing blow. "It ain't over till it's over," I figured, so, with no expectations whatsoever, I hit the slots.

The slots stopped: three Crowns. Toy Soldier. Six diminutive toy soldiers in an orange uniform marched out towards Emerald Weapon in a row, came to a halt, lowered their rifles, and shot. The attack dealt less than 2000 damage. My jaw fell slack as Emmy completely and gloriously vaporized. My tears of satisfaction still have not stopped flowing.
