From: XIIAxelCrossIIX Alright, first things first, I want to make sure it’s clear that this will not be a one word poll, like I’ve mentioned before. Once you name who you think will win, you must give at least a sentence or two of why you think that certain character will win. If you don’t, your post will be deleted, we want to start promoting discussion a lot more.Now that that’s out of the way, let’s start this amazing battle. For you hermits out there, I’ll explain the two characters. Source: IGN.comSora: Keyblade Master Weapon: Keyblade 'Various Forms'One-AP Abilities Air Combo Plus: One extra air combo attack. Equip multiple Air Combo Plus abilities to gain more combo steps. Berserk: Grants an attack bonus when the health meter is flashing, especially in conjunction with a special combo attack. Cheer: Grants summoned monsters more MP, and thus more staying power. Combo Plus: Like Air Combo Plus, but applies to ground combos. Dodge Roll: A diving roll, avoiding enemy attack. Vortex: An extra attack that lets Sora close more distance when starting a combo.Two-AP Abilities Aerial Sweep: Like Vortex, a more powerful starter for air combos. Counterattack: After parrying an attack, the 'Attack' menu option will flash 'Counter.' Hit that quickly to strike back with a riposte. Guard: Press square for a temporary window in which to parry an attack. Works great with Counter. MP Rage: Recover MP when taking damage. Second Chance: Stay at 1 HP after taking a lethal blow. Three-AP Abilities Blitz: A special combo for attacking enemies in front of you. Critical Plus: Increases the chances of a powerful critical hit. MP Haste: MP recovers more quickly in battle. Sonic Blade: Rush through an enemy at medium distance with a hard slash. Strike Raid: Throw the Keyblade in an arc at the target. Extendable, like Sonic Blade.Four-AP Abilities Ars Arcanum: A powerful close-range combo. Also extendable. Ragnarok: Hit an enemy with an aerial combo, and then watch for the Ragnarok ability to light up in the menu options. Also extendable.Five-AP AbilitiesTrinity Limit: A powerful blast that expends the whole party's MP. Link: Hero of TimeWeapon: Master SwordMelee abilities:Snipe - One of Link’s most strategic attacks. Link hides, concealing himself from the opponent, and with his bow and arrow, snipes out his enemy with a variety of arrows, including the Fire Arrow, Light Arrow, and Ice Arrow.Spin Attack - Link’s most deadly attack. Powering his sword up with magic, his sword becomes a powerhouse of strength and light. Then, using a small amount of magic, spins around multiple times, shredding whatever is left of his opponent into pieces. If used right, Link can literally shred his opponent with this one attackDown Slash - A simple yet lethal attack. Used by Link countless times to both attack and defend himself, this technique is a must-have for Link. Using his powerful legs, Link jumps high up in the air, surprising the enemy, then pointing his sword directly down at a 90 degree angle, cuts into his opponent, either severely injuring him/her or killing him/her instantly. Although it is extremely easy to dodge.Magic abilities:Power of Din - Much like Cloud’s Firaga, Link calls upon the power of the Goddess of fire, Din, to make a huge wall of flames surround him to both defend himself and burn his opponent to smithereens. A very helpful attack when cornered or being brutally attacked.Power of Nayru - Link’s most helpful magic in terms of defense. Link calls upon the power of the Goddess Nayru to help him. Nayru will make a force field for Link, defending him from everything and anything that comes at him. In this phase, Link’s magic power is drained drastically, literally down to nothing, but he is also invincible in this short period of time.Power Up - A very simple technique, yet essential if Link is to succeed. With this, Link can use his Ice, Fire, or Light arrows, which are all lethal to the enemy if hit in the right place. Link can also power up his sword to use the Magic Spin Attack, which is a nearly assured to kill the opponent if timed rightAlright, you've seen the stats, you've heard the opponents. Vote away! Don't forget to give an explanation of why you chose that character.
