Season 6, Week 2
Shadow
(Final Fantasy VI)
 
Shadow's out to prove one simple thing this week: that ninjas are better fighters than athletes. Can he do it? Well, with his aptly-named Shadow Edge to give him perfect evasion from Wakka's blitzball-borne status attacks, and the advantage in speed, he's in good shape. Provided Wakka can't break his Image defence, Shadow has a free pass to victory, since his thrown Falchions will easily outpower Wakka's weak Drain spell.

Wakka won't be able to take two hits from the high offence Shadow, but that doesn't matter. With the World Champ giving him Evade and Counter, Wakka will be getting two high power shots in even though he can't evade Shadow's attack. Drain will do double duty as it both keeps Shadow from daring to use an Invis Edge and heals Wakka. And with Triple Foul and Sleep Buster to knock Shadow out of comission if the two hits won't do the job, Wakka's poised to get win number one this season.

Shadow vs. Wakka "I'm suppose to fight you, yah? Lets have a good time, alright?"


"..."


"Don't want to be a good sport? Alright, just so you know, I do my best, and I try for Victory! So don't expect me to pull any punches, ya hear?"


"..."


"Alright, here's my ultimate secret! Triple Foul! Booya!"


Wakka threw the ball right at SHadow...only to see it go right through


"What the...my hit was dead on, how did you manage to dodge it"


"You'll have to try harder to hit me than that, you fool"


"Hey, I take offense to that, ya know? Lets get this show on the road!"


"Your drawing my patience thin...INTERCEPTOR, Attack!"


"Ha, my Evade and Counter will let me dodge a simple dogs attack, even if he's pulling out all the...OWWW!" He yelled, just as Interceptor jumped up and bit him


"Its a shame that interceptor can't be dodged unless you fly, and you don't fly"


Wakka, running around like a maniac from being bitten by Interceptor, didn't notice Shadow's lack of concern other than the easy target. One Falchion in the back Side, Wakka fell down, signalling Shadow's victory.

Shadow: 17
Wakka: 8

25% chance to break through the image status. Technically, he needs 4 hits to do it. He's not getting a 4th turn. Advantage: Shadow.

Evade and counter won't work on throws if you ask me...
