@The Great ZZ

I'd rather not.

Tifa vs Yang is possibly accurate because of the setup- Tifa was allowed none of the good materia because Deathbattle won't accept the possibility of them using any materia except the most basic ones. If I took away Yang's abilities and equipment I could make her lose just as easily.

Deathbattle's a bit hypocritical about FF7 characters, which is why I want them to use a different FF so I can judge exactly how they're judging the characters (The ones they can't just gimp and remove the hax magic because "They don't use this materia"). Thus far the only other FF character is Lightning and that was a OMM.

On an entirely personal level (read, quite differen't from the objective level I use for most fights) I'm fucking upset they didn't at least give her the materia Monty had her using in Dead Fantasy. It was a perfect mix of normal magic and hax magic- but they apparently digress. That's fine- they're no more right or wrong than any other debate site- they just have an animator- big whoop.
