Click here to nominate or vote for fights to be held in the DNC in the future.

Uwee hee hee hee! Welcome, editors, to the Dragon's Neck Colosseum! My name is Ultros the receptionist, and I'm taking bets as to who will win in a tussle between two characters from the Final Fantasy series! The winner gets, well, nothing. It's more of a poll, really. The Colosseum owner stuck me on this duty after Kefka was defeated, but I need the money! So what are you waiting for? Get voting! Remember, you can remain anonymous!

DNC Moderators

The DNC is run by committee. If you have any questions regarding DNC rules, please contact one of the following people: Deadlyslashsword, ScatheMote, and Jimcloud. TacticAngel will also help in areas of policy or if somehow all other members of the committee are unavailable. The committee members will take care of changing the fights, archiving older fights, and maintaining the nominations page. Please do not change the format of this page or change the fight without permission.

The Rules, Briefly

Functionally, this is a popularity contest. You may vote for your favorite or whom you think would win in an competition between the two combatants that week. Failure to comply with these rules will likely result in your vote being removed up to being banned from participating in future fights.

  • You may vote only once.
  • If you are a user, please include your vote in the user section. If you are not logged in when you vote as a user, your vote will be removed.
  • If you are not a user, please include your vote in the anonymous section.
  • To vote, type the following "#~~~~", afterward including any reasons for voting you may wish to include. You are required to leave this whether you are logged in or anonymous. If you do not sign and timestamp your vote, it will be removed.
  • Add your votes to the bottom of the list. Please do not post anything obnoxious and/or extraordinarily lengthy or it will be removed. Lengthy votes will be moved to the peanut gallery, whereas obnoxious votes can be removed if two thirds of the panel agree upon it.
  • If you wish to comment on the fight, please leave your remarks in the peanut gallery. You are expected to conduct yourself with courtesy. Comments must relate to the fight at hand.
  • Any failure to adhere to these rules will result in your vote(s) being removed.

Last Man Standing

Last Man Standing is a spinoff of the original Dragon's Neck Colosseum. It is a fight between the previous victor of Last Man Standing and victor of the previous DNC fight. It occurs every other week; in other terms, it happens when the normal DNC fights are not going on. It has the same rules as the normal fights, with a few exceptions:

  • If the two opponents tie, the both characters will be retired, and two new fighters will appear.
  • If a character wins 5 Last Man Standing fights in a row, he or she will be retired from LMS and two new battlers will vie for the coveted champion spot.
  • Sometimes a previous Last Man Standing champion may be revived to fight against the current champion. This will happen if the previous DNC winner is incompatible with LMS (i.e. if the previous winner was a game mechanic, a summon, or an enemy) or for special celebrations.

  7. I've heard of him.--Kierandell1409 (talk) 11:31, June 24, 2014 (UTC)
  8. Anyone else think FFXII playing as all the guests characters would make a cooler lineup than the actual cast? I mean think of it 2 of the "guest" characters were the better main characters Basch and Ashe only missing out on Balthier. Then you have all the sweet guest characters of Vossler, Reddas, and Larsa. You'd get to miss all the bad characters this way excluding Vaan, Penelo, and Fran. Now if only AL-Cid was a guest character... --Ffgamesftw (talk) 01:14, June 27, 2014 (UTC)

  1. Reddas is pretty cool, but Ringabel comes from a proud line of the FF clan that can name Edgar and Balthier among its ranks.120.147.40.135 14:39, June 24, 2014 (UTC)

14½ to 9½
In one corner, we have who might be the smuggest looking character ever. In the other corner, we have everyone's favorite cowboy hat wearing superstar named for a city in California. But these two have several similarities. Indeed, Irvine scours the earth looking for love and fails. However, he does eventually find in the party member he had been traveling with this entire time, Selphie. Does this story ring a bell for you when it comes to Ringabel's plot?

What kind of monster have I become?

  1. So awesome they used him (or at least his character) again in FFIX as a dude named Zidane. 120.147.40.135 03:05, June 17, 2014 (UTC)

@Anon Irvine Vote- So they could try again to do better. And they did, Ziddy's the Gold Standard for rakish likeable rogues.--AnonyMan (talk) 03:10, June 18, 2014 (UTC)

Yeah I honestly can't even really compare Irvine with Zidane as I find their characters quite different. I'd say they are more the "Ladies man that really isn't" archetype than anything else. Which in that contest Zidane would come in 2nd behind Edgar imo. --Ffgamesftw (talk) 07:05, June 18, 2014 (UTC)
They are not comparable at all. Irvine was trash, "hurr durr im gonna act like i can shoot but actually im a pussy really lol". At least Squall's douchebaggery had a tiny bit of an explanation, Irvine was just "let's throw this in so we have even MORE emos! YAAAAAAAAAAAY". Zidane is just a total boss who is a cool-headed ladies man done right. Irvine is a trash pussy who had the potential to be this game's only good character and failed.--FFVI Kefka Palazzo Sprite iOS Technobliterator TC 15:48, June 18, 2014 (UTC)
I think you have misunderstood VIII, because that's totally not what happened. JBed (talk) 16:14, June 18, 2014 (UTC)
Perhaps. But I do not consider a game where I have to look deeply into it to understand why something is supposed to be enjoyed a good game. Not that I don't like character development and only like things straight forward, because I do like how, for instance, Yuna felt like she grew as a character and began to stand up for herself. But Irvine sucked from the outset and didn't redeem himself by the time I'd already stopped playing.--FFVI Kefka Palazzo Sprite iOS Technobliterator TC 16:19, June 18, 2014 (UTC)
Wow. Did Irvine personally steal your lover and poop in your cereal. Gotta love these outrageous rants some people have for characters who are pretty decent people but never for the true a-hole ones. Also, did you stop playing right after the assassination attempt?--AnonyMan (talk) 22:41, June 18, 2014
...I would reply, but your comment is full of ad hominems and nothing to support your case (as well as an assumption that I only like a-hole characters), so there is not a lot I can really reply of value. I am 99% sure the Peanut Gallery is not the place go discuss this either. Take it to my talk page (although it was partly my fault when my comment provoked this).--FFVI Kefka Palazzo Sprite iOS Technobliterator TC 22:59, June 18, 2014 (UTC)

The first time a fight of mine gets into the DNC it causes a flame war :( TMG- Why? (talk) 10:59, June 22, 2014 (UTC)
