I don't really feel like rewriting a rant but I can just bring back the old write-up I did back in... 2013? Wow. Time flies. 115. Terra Branford (Final Fantasy 6) http://www.411mania.com/siteimages/terra-dissidia_27853.jpg <- This no longer exists-- it was a picture of Terra in a shocker. What is love? I am boring. - Terra (paraphrased) The quote really says all you need to know. Without a doubt, the most bland lead in the series, Terra. Game starts and she's like who am I. Unfortunately, unlike Cloud, she really fails to take any sort of initiative whatsoever. She is constantly led throughout the game, and used. Kefka does so early, but I never really got the feeling that Terra really wanted to help the Returners much either. She was sorta just like well okay this guy who helped me out before likes you guys so I can help. Then she goes insane and disappears for a while, only to come back and be used by the (now peace seeking!) empire again. In the World of Ruin... she uh... decides to act like a mother to a bunch of children? Well uhh cool character development there. It's nice to protect kids, but I get the feeling that she's not actually doing anything that important. The older kids could've managed what she was doing. Also how the heck did she even provide for everyone. And if she was able to provide for everyone, why were they still in those bunk ruins of a town, eh? The one active action she takes in the game? Harassing General Leo about what love is, which was fairly gagworthy anyway. I'm pretty sure every other thing she did was set in motion by some other character or organization. Now, I wouldn't mind this much, but seeing as she's bland as a brick, is arguably the main character, and certainly has the power within her to make changes happen. So it's just a bit frustrating for this brick to be a focal point of the game. Oh, she's also annoying as hell to fight in Dissidia. Damn tornado attack. --- No problem!

Oh I meant ranking insofar as an objective assessment of the 3rd place finisher in the context of the contest - which would also necessitate having duplicates e.g. separate IX Dagger and XXII Dagger - but this works too... the seething Doomtrain ranking... potential repeat champs ranked 2nd, 3rd and 5th, wow... and poor Ultros... and I never made the Sabin/Dagger connection before that either, that's crazy.

Bringing up Layle in the same breath should make it obvious that stats don't necessarily mean you have any chance to win the whole thing. When you've got STATS in the high 80s and you have multiple top 5 finishes, you can win. Seymour is an underdog in the sense that he's not the type of character who ordinarily wins, and he's probably like the 6th or 7th most popular FFX character overall. But in terms of performance over the last 7 years, he's been only bested by one person in terms of consistency (and you can guess who that is). Layle's STATS are just under 70% so this isn't quite the same thing. --- http://i2.kym-cdn.com/photos/images/original/001/080/145/638.png ... Copied to Clipboard!
