MBlock / Evade is not Levin's friend.


Middle:

Tony (WA4) vs. Byleth Eisner (FE3H)
Tony doubles with his basic attack, but I'm inclined to respect-check him here.  Maybe he barely 4HKOs but if he ever misses or Crest of Flames ever triggers or if Byleth gets a crit on SotC counters, Tony is toast (either immediately or once Byleth gets a turn).  For that matter, since Byleth is getting doubled anyway, the goofy White Magic setup with WM Avo +20 and Nosferatu also serve the cause of just ensuring Byleth gets one turn with which to Sublime Heaven and blow Tony up with.

Heather (FE10) vs. Karn (BoF1)
Traditionally, having counterattacks is a huge swing in Light slugfests.  And I don't think I'd let Karn double, Heather is pretty blazingly fast (even if Karn is too, but in a system where this is less meaningful).

Fenrir (VP1) vs. Belial (WA4)


Heavy:

Levin Brenton (WAXF) vs. Edgar Roni Figaro (FF6) - Think I agree with this as a kneejerk.


Middle:

Tony (WA4) vs. Byleth Eisner (FE3H) - So Shoot 3HKOs on average, that'd be a bit too much to me (no I am not going to board the absurd cast favoritism train and pretend Shoot isn't something that can't double)... except WM Avoid +20 exists and should let Byleth dodge two out of four attacks.  Two Nos counters + Sublime Heaven won't be enough... but those and a SotC counter will, and the weak Nos healing + Renewal means that Tony will need 3 crits to avoid this which isn't that likely, so yeah saved by that near in-game useless budding talent here.

Godlike:

Fenrir (VP1) vs. Belial (WA4)- Kneejerk that Belial's speed is a functional substitute for damage control here.


Heavy:

Levin Brenton (WAXF) vs. Edgar Roni Figaro (FF6)- Without heavy math, basically Levin needs both of his first two hits to connect before he gets breathing space from natural doubles and I don't... think he quite gets there.


Middle:

Tony (WA4) vs. Byleth Eisner (FE3H) I could probably math this but funny nos tank build sways me.


Light:

Heather (FE10) vs. Karn (BoF1)- I... thiiinnk.

Fenrir (VP1) vs. Belial (WA4) - Kneejerk here.  We're looking at a speed spread of very slightly above average to literally 270% WA4 boss overclock bullshit.  Belial can absolutely burn empty turns moving in order to set up as close to the limit as possible and then waiting for a triple.


Heavy:

Levin Brenton (WAXF) vs. Edgar Roni Figaro (FF6) - This one is...close.

Godlike:

Fenrir (VP1) vs. Belial (WA4) Fenrir can't even hurt Belial before 50% HP, and Belial can probably come close enough to killing on a Triple.


Heavy:

Levin Brenton (WAXF) vs. Edgar Roni Figaro (FF6) - One miss at a bad time for Edgar to win, though Levin does still have an argument.
