GoT: ...did Sandol(?) just turn face? Also the red priest guy has been mentioned twice now. I assume/hope he'll be important at some point. Chekhov's fire sword an' all that.

Culdcept: This run on the final(?) level hasn't gone south yet, which I assume means it's just luring me in.

Lucha 1-12a: I think I'd be a bigger fan of Pimpanita and Mascarita if they were presented more seriously? I forget what year it is in LU but here it's 2018 and LOL GAY/TRANS PANIC in particular falls a bit flat while they're talking about equal opportunity and such as much as they do. They lose to some permutation of the goon squad, (**) who proceed to turn on Ryck. Somehow I didn't see that coming. Cage says some words to WCW US Champion Konnan (been background watching a lot of Nitro lately for no real reason). Pentagon puts away Super Fly in a solid match. I like that package piledriver at the end! (***)

Persona 5: Temperance 6 and Sun 6 didn't shake the world or anything. More up my alley, I got to go look at books with Makoto and ran into Hifumi. I want them to be friends now. Followed that up with Star 4. Hifumi is a distant third in the waifu race, but I do enjoy her.

Bass.EXE is as he appears in the Megaman Battle Network series, with access to all the moves and properties of his Omega, XX, and BX forms (including Bass Omega GS, and both Gregar and Falzar), though if any of his barriers/auras is destroyed, he loses access to all of them for the rest of the fight. He can operate here same as he does on the Net. [He has also inhaled Lilith from Borderlands 2, gaining a set of moves fitting her. Whenever Bass.EXE receives a buff any parameters of it (i. e. duration, potency) are doubled.] [He has a loadout of Samus Aran's equipment from Metroid Prime 3, giving him Nova Beam, Corruption Mode, Upgraded Grapple, X-Ray Visor, and Command Visor w/Gunship.] He is as seen during the Metal Gear REX boss fight in Metal Gear Solid (Cockpit closed phase). He will walk REX in from the nearest convenient location on his team's side. He may not leave REX and if it goes down, it can be assumed Liquid has gone down with it.

Kirby is as seen in the Kirby Super Star and Smash series. He has full use of his Smash Brothers Moveset along with the moves from his ____ forms. (He has also inhaled MERCENARIES, gaining a set of moves fitting each). He cannot inhale enemy fighters nor create helpers from his abilities during the match, but can inhale anything else and will not lose access to his forms due to taking damage. [He is piloting Metal Gear REX as seen in the boss fight in Metal Gear Solid (Cockpit closed phase). He will walk Metal Gear REX in from the nearest convenient location on his team's side. He may not leave REX and if it goes down, it can be assumed Kirby has gone down with it. ] [Thanks to the Triforce of Courage, his parameters have been increased by 50%/doubled].

Rikku is as she appears in Final Fantasy X, equipped with Godhand and a Tercio without SOS Reflect. She has access to her own sphere grid. She has brought 5 each of ITEMS to battle and can use any combination of them with Use or her Mix Overdrive, provided sufficient Overdrive has been built. She is as seen during the Metal Gear REX boss fight in Metal Gear Solid (Cockpit closed phase). She will walk REX in from the nearest convenient location on his team's side. She may not leave REX and if it goes down, it can be assumed Rikku has gone down with it.

Bass.EXE Jr. has been created as Kirby's helper. Similar in appearance to a Kirbyed version of Bass.EXE, it has roughly the same size and durability of Kirby, but it has proficiency with all of BASS.EXE's attacks. However, it does not have BASS.EXE's memories, tactics, or personality, preferring to attack in a reckless, erratic, and borderline suicidal fashion. He has access to Samus' gunship

Kefka is as he appears in FF6A in the last battle, having access to all attacks and skills from the fight aside from Trine and Heartless Angel. He additionally has all his Brave and HP attacks from Dissidia: Final Fantasy, as well as the Exhilarating Magic skill. He has Mega Man style weapons based on Divine power attacks, Raziel's Soul Steal, and Aether.

Eddie is as he appears in the mainline Mega Man series. He is carrying one E-Tank, and will attempt to remain hidden until Kefka is low on health, at which point he will attempt to give him the E-Tank.

Dezel is as they appear in Tales of Zestiria, with an endgame skill build. They will enter battle with 5 Blast Gauges, and will be permanently invisible and inaudible to Sorey, Kefka, Morrigan, Terra, and Rikku.

Morrigan is as seen in Dragon Age: Origins and Inquisition (though she has not drank from the Well of Sorrows), with typical endgame equipment and 3 Lyrium Potions. She has mastered the first three spells of the Lightning, Cold, Shapeshifter spell trees, all of the Enhancements, Hexes, Summoning, spell trees, and Mind Blast.

~VERSUS~

Zero is as he appears in the Mega Man Zero series, in his Defense Form as seen in Zero 2. He has his Saber, Buster, Shield Boomerang, and Chain Rod, as well as the EX skills from Mega Man Zero 2. He has the elemental chips and the only effects from Cyber Elves he has are those from Grandie, Atti, Jettah, and Fubuffa, (double life, running speed, climbing speed, no backlash recoil). He will appear 15 seconds late. Zero's Theme (from MMX) will also begin playing throughout the terrain as soon as he enters the battle.

Terra is as she appears in Dissidia, in her base form. She is equipped with full Genji armour, Apocalypse, a Hero Ring, and a Gold Hairpin. She has all her natural magic, as well as those gained from Unicorn and Bahamut, save for Arise, Teleport, Break, Graviga, Meltdown. She has Raise, Ultima, and Flood. Terra may turn into her Esper form for up to 60 seconds at any point of the match. Otherwise it functions exactly as it does in the game.

~VERSUS~

King of Mercenaries has challenged Mercenaries 4 and Draftmercs to a fight, and then everybody kinda ignored it for a couple months! Location of the cluster****: Sanubia Desert - A blazing hot sun, no water in sight, and an endless sea of sand dunes define this battlefield. While the Al Bhed may call this place home, most would call it a death sentence. Attackers will start by the X-Potion chest (which is empty, as are all others), while defenders will start by the oasis. Which side will win?

Guidelines

- The fight will occur in real-time (like an FMV sequence). Gameplay mechanics are less important than how the characters would function in a real-time environment.

- The members of each team are ideal teammates capable of a pre-selected plan of battle.

- "Broken" refers to a lot of things, including insta-death, auto-effects, a variety of status effects (e.g., Imp, Silence, Stop, *not* Poison), and revival. Unless stated otherwise, nobody has them, though do use your own discretion.

- There may be SPOILERS from all of the games the characters are from.

Rules for Voting

- Bold your votes (using bold HTML tags).

- You do not need to require justification for your vote, though the admins reserve the right to disqualify votes in the advent of obvious alt voting and other similar scenarios.

- Leaders cannot vote for their own teams, but they are free to argue their case.

- If you want to switch your votes simply bold the change; there's no need to delete your post, though you may if you wish.

- This match will end in 72 hours.

- Something probably got screwed up somewhere at some point so please watch for errata

Sorey is as he appears in Tales of Zestiria, with all orbs and talismans (though they buff only himself and his seraphim) and an endgame skill build. He enters the battle with 5 Blast Gauges and may armatize freely with his seraphim and <SUB LORD MERCS> (so...nobody?) during the course of the battle, but armatization cannot be used to revive anyone. He does not have access to Siegfried. He will join the battle as a third party in a neutral position from both teams. They will not attack Kefka, nor defend themselves from him, but will not obey his commands either. He will be devoid of emotion and personal memories, the crown cannot be removed nor worn by anyone else, and the ally will not break the slave crown's hold even if Kefka is defeated. He will obey Kefka's commands without question.

~VERSUS~

-Random people I really miss in UCA: Haguile, sbp, Semi, Tecknic, Dante, Alec, FFD, Chris, Drak

-I tried several times to talk Ulti into participating because I really wanted to see him heel it up, especially in like the 2013-2015 era when he was more liked. Best I ever got was a brief Rumble appearance.

-I really like all our different stips, and am STILL in love with MELEE MAYHEM years after it started being a thing. I kinda wanna use it somewhere else. I used it in my short-lived "book WWE like it is UCA" TEW game, and ran like half a round of a tournament with it here.

-Speaking of TEW, the mod is still a thing, and UCA is still in it! It's currently kinda sorta playable (including UCA) and is progressing at a rapid pace. Stop by the 1006-verse topic if you wanna.

-The crossover storyline with that mod went waaaayyyyy longer than we were really expecting! I think we were as sick of it as everybody else but results never really supported ending it. For those wondering, I did a sim with the mod, and filled CPU in on everything his virtual counterpart had done. He happened to wind up in the Sonic fed, and that's why it was Sonic characters (plus or minus some other random folks that they'd hired or let go) showing up.

-Have I mentioned that I'm pretty hyped that it's me and Wigs at Mania? It's still very surprising to me that either of us got this far, but I ain't complaining! WGSIWGSIWGSIGISWGIWSGSIGWSIGWS

-that said I feel kinda bad because boko wanted to do stuff with me and now we can't :\

Random musings:

-Probably my favorite match I had was a Submission match with Semi at Mania. We were ETERNAL RIVALS and he usually got the better of me in multiple things across the board. The stip IIRC was tap out or be out of action on a loss for a few months. I was determined to not tap, regardless of the score. It was a back and forth match, and I had a slight lead coming up on the deadline. Our mutual friend kenrmcha came in with an obviously rallied vote for Semi...but he was just a few seconds late, and Semi tapped out. For many years, I would consider that my biggest singles accomplishment.

-My first HW Title win was a complete accident, and I still feel a bit bad about it. I had come back for the guest booking period at some point where I was barely participating. I went with the character of an over-the-top egomaniac, stuck in the glory days of my being admin. I booked myself against Kora for the title for no reason in a random undercard match, and did lots of pre-celebrating my victory. Then I actually won for some reason. Wouldn't have booked the match if I'd expected I had a chance! And that was my only HW Title win until this one. I'd always wanted the big one, but kinda given up on ever getting there, so it was a weird feeling to accidentally get it in a shady manner. I wasn't really specifically gunning for the title when I won it this time, but at least I earned it!

-I had a few ideas for Mania before I got the title. An early concept of the card had NLK in a multi-tag match for the belts, but I didn't really feel like that and might've fought back. I was planning on hitting up Semi on Discord and seeing if I could talk him into one more match. I've tried a few times to bring him in, and gotten no every time, but I think it's conceivable he could've come back to put the final nail in the coffin. Maybe another sub match where if I lose the UCA can never be brought back in any form, or something. Other things I was considering were NLK/WotR (but I figured there were fifty other people who'd want XIII), going for the MM Title, or teaming up with Boko again.

-When I retained at the Rumble, my plan shifted briefly to being some sorta JRPG big bad, and that's why I was getting weird and nihilistic on commentary. I WILL PURGE THIS FALLEN WORLD EVEN IN VICTORY YOU CANNOT STOP ME HERO and all that. Was gonna start calling myself "The Final Boss of UCA" even. Then Wigs won (getting to hammer was probably my biggest markout moment in UCA ever) and that plan went out the window.

-One of my favorite booking things was when Haguile came back as LuchadorPotter at the Rumble, leading into the whole two-title thing. It was just fun to visualize in an actual wrestling setting! He left UCA as champ, IIRC, and a new champ was crowned. After a while, Potter had started participating, obviously as somebody's alt but it wasn't known whose. Right as the Rumble ended, I did another countdown, and played Potter's theme again, and then he came out with the belt and unmasked.

-It was a pain remembering to insert trons every card, but now that we only get them at the Rumble, I kinda miss them. Hype videos are cool too. I wanted video promos to take off, but they never did. :(

-The Rumble is simultaneously my favorite and least favorite event to run. It's super hype staying around for hours and getting surprise returns and posting trons and coming up with commentary and stratvoting. It's also a huge time commitment, lol. I think this might've been the first time it's gone without some sorta weird drama over lawyering or rallying or such! Thanks for that, everybody. I fully support the idea of having some sorta non-UCA Rumble every year. Also, shoutout to Dp for keeping tallies going a lot of the time.

-I also really like Ultimatum, and am kinda bummed that we couldn't anybody to take cases this year. It's fun coming up with them and one of these days I'm gonna use it in TEW
