FF Character Tournament Madness! Winner revealed!

[Llanowar]

Yes I agree Sabin not having a place in the IV-VI section is a travesty. That muscle bound Kefka pounding FREAK of NATURE is awesome. I guess since VI was going to dominate anyway the creators assumed that the deck didnt need to be stacked any farther in VI's favor Oh well maybe next time He will be put in.

amazing, I and the only other person who has voted agreed on *one* category.

yay maria.

(who is gus? I keep thinking it's guyX.x;; or IS IT?)

[Masamune·1600]

Let's see....

Ninja (FFIII). Still dual wielding Ragnarok and Masamune. Still the old-school ninja with Throw. Not close.

Knight (FFI). Knight is the powerhouse class of FFI, in my opinion. Tough call, though.

Gus (FFII). If Gus somehow got by the Sage, the Summoner has no chance.

Frionel (FFII). Underdeveloped, personality-lacking main characters are pretty awesome.

[Del Murder]

Gus is indeed also known as Guy. I used the names from the Origins version of the game, since that is the only version I have.

[PearlRose]

Wow, a tiebreaker? Cool.
::vaugely wonders how it works::

Oh, well, another round in this divison, with the characters I'm still less than familiar with. If it wasn't the week all my final papers were due, I'd so start playing one (or all) of these games. Voting on word of mouth and usefulness, then, I suppose.

[Del Murder]

For tiebreakers I hold a super-secret committee and we have a runoff vote. The committee can have anywhere from 1-99 members.

[Ultima Shadow]

Ninja(FF1), just because I say so. Knight, just because it's the by far best class in FF1. Summoner... jsut because... bah, nevermind... I just voted summoner. And finally... my last vote goes to Maria... just because... uuuh... well... just... BECAUSE!

[Apollo]

GO MARIA!!!

[strawberryman]

I shall not say a thing about who I voted for.

(Aside from voting for Maria)

[MrEvil]

Black Wizard wins because of knights low magic resistance and his awesome 1-hit KO attacks which kill that kind of fighter. Also because Knight wasn't cool enough to be put into a 3D game now, was he?

Remember 8-bit theater's old tagline:
"Black Mage always wins!

Remember 8-bit theater's old tagline:
"Black Mage always wins!

but not Black Wizard. I thought the black wizard was actually kind of weird looking, and he most certainly could'nt hold a match to a Knight. They're just too strong, and have too much HP.

[Masamune·1600]

Real FFI Black Mages/Wizards are kind of lacking as far as Hadoken and stabbity death are concerned. Besides, BM can never actually manage to kill Fighter (unless you count the episode where BM sacrificed the whole party, only to have Sarda immediately bring them back).
