Season 8, Week 4
Orlandu, Cidolfas
(Final Fantasy Tactics) 		 
This week Orlandu will finally have an opponent who can actually threaten to stop his run for a back-to-back Godlike Championship. However, Ash Lambert, the famed Vandelier, will do little more than threaten the famed Ivalician general. Despite being immune to Cid's equipment breaking moves, having versatility that makes a mockery of the varied All Swordskill command, and a physical attack strong enough to make Night Sword useless, Orlandu still has options. His Holy Swordskills, with a reasonable chance of status, are a major threat to the Vandelier.

 The Vandalier Ash faces a PC that rivals him in power, this week. However, anything Orlandu can do, Ash can negate. While his Iron Boot/Perfect Guard strategy won't suffice against Orlandu's Swordskills, he will still be able to laugh them off, given his naturally godly defenses. With Ash leaving Orlandu unable to break his equipment or deal any worthwhile damage without sacrificing the durability needed to prevent a one-hit-kill, it's almost guaranteed that the Vandalier will triumph over the Thunder God.

Orlandu is one of the most broken characters ever made for an RPG. He's insanely fast, insanely strong, has break techniques, has leech techniques, and is pretty durable.

A pity he runs into Ash, who, while being slower, is even stronger, is immune to Orlandu's break techs, is much more durable to the point where the leech attack will hardly harm him, and has an infinite supply of every item and spell in Vandal Hearts at his disposal, giving him immortality in the face of Orlandu's inability to kill him in one or even two hits. Looks like T.G. Cid's run through godlike is about to hit a brick wall.

TG Cid, is powerful in the FFT world, but Ash Lambert as the Vandalier has never been toppled by anyone in the Vandal Hearts world.


His magic spells and items he has access to (Life Orb in particular, an item he has an infinite amount of access to), will ensure victory for him.

Orlandu opens up the battle with a Holy Explosion, an attack that's able to fell PCs with a single blow.


Ash, who was strong enough to live through a couple of Plasma Waves in his game node, calmly walks through the Holy Explosion and pokes Orlandu with the Vandal Heart.

On the surface Orlandu and Ash are pretty similar, being that they are both widely recognized as frighteningly overpowered in their own games. But when you look deeper, Orlandu just makes his game really easy. Ash, however, makes his game capable of being beaten by an iguana.
