Relm or Shadow? Please say that there is a winner. this one'll only last for a week.

:D I've said it before, but i'll say it again:

Re: The FINALS OF THE FINALS!!!
 

Relm-witten!!

Re: The FINALS OF THE FINALS!!!
 

And Relm is in a huge lead!

Re: The FINALS OF THE FINALS!!!
 

Urgh, pitting two of the more useless characters in FFVI against each other...

I'll go with Shadow, simply because I prefer his character design.

Re: The FINALS OF THE FINALS!!!
 

Shadow useless? o_o

Relm, okay, she's not powerfull, altough a cool ability,

but Shadow useless?? :p

Re: The FINALS OF THE FINALS!!!
 

When you size up 'throw' against abilities like Blitz, Swordtech, tools, morph, rage and hell even dance, Shadow is pretty sub-par.

Re: The FINALS OF THE FINALS!!!
 

Throw is an underrated ability. I'm going with Shadow.

Re: The FINALS OF THE FINALS!!!
 

That's who you guys voted for, I can't help the facts.

Re: The FINALS OF THE FINALS!!!
 

Excuse me, Throw, useless? Shadow useless? Maybe you need to buy more shuriken or something, throw is definitely not useless. (Or Shadow.) Relm may be one of the more not-so-useful characters, skill-wise. (And if you have the U.S. cartridge, you can screw up your game with sketch, but...) With the Cat Hood, Relm can have the third strongest magic in the game, next to Celes and Tina. (Which is really saying something.)

Anyway, Throw isn't useless. Shuriken are pennies, and you can get 99 of them when Shadow first joins you in Mash's scenario. Throw ignores defense, so it'll always do decent damage. Shadow has a very, very, monstrosly high evasion (or MBlock, whatever really decides evasion mechanically), and the added bonus of Interceptor to do extra damage while slipping out of harm's way. And with the Offering/Genji Glove relics, you can make him a savage beast.

Although I did find it ironic that Relm and Shadow were being pitted against eachother...:p

Re: The FINALS OF THE FINALS!!!
 

Shadow outlives his usefulness pretty quickly. By the time I was on the floating continent, he was causing more damage with fire 2, an ability that any character can learn, than he was with either Interceptor or any of his throwing weapons (except a few of the more powerful ones, in which I had about 2).

I would rather give the Offering to a characters like Locke, who can actually equip some decent swords like Atma Weapon or the Ragnarok.

Re: The FINALS OF THE FINALS!!!
 

Well, he's still not useless, far from that, although I can understand why someone would use another character instead of him. (Lock is great with the Valiant Knife!)

Fira is definitely not as good as Throwing, unless his magic is really high or something. Throw never ceases to be useful, although it's definitely not the best ability of characters.

Re: The FINALS OF THE FINALS!!!
 

Let's see:

Terra: Morph
Locke: Steal/Capture
Edgar: Tools
Sabin: Blitz
Celes: Runic
Setzer: Slot/GP Rain
Shadow: Throw
Cyan: SwordTech
Gau: Leap/Rage
Mog: Dance
Strago: Lore
Relm: Sketch/Control
Gogo: Mimic
Umaro: Rage/Blizzard

Well, Mimic is all in one :p, so that's my favorite. ^^

Re: The FINALS OF THE FINALS!!!
 

Yeah, and Gogo is pretty much every character in one...so, he just can't be useless. In fact, he'd probably be broken if only for the fact that he can't equip everything. :p

Re: The FINALS OF THE FINALS!!!
 

tomorrow's the last day for the poll! And it looks like shadow's gonna win.
