It matters not whether you win or lose; what matters is whether I win or lose.

Shinto, for the love of God, read the full rule. I didn't say that FF characters can't use magic. It's posted in the Zelaron Melee rulebook, and if you read the full description with the "reasons" corollary below it, you'll understand why I've made this rule a necessity. Many FF characters are the video game equivalent of Dragon ball Z characters. Too damned powerful with no obvious weaknesses. FF7 and FF8 characters, to be specific.

Oh something i forgot to say about FF9. Once I go in trance i can stay that way until i am defeated. :)

Yes....but I don't think we could use Ultima. Ultima or at least Kuja's version caused INFINATE damage. Which means that he could kill anyone in one blow. But there's always Flare Star.
