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!

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.
These two both died at a major part of the story only to continue to help the party in some form, despite the handicap of no longer having a body. Or maybe that's an advantage.
...In fact, I think one of these two was eliminated in Last Man Standing a month ago, and he's still back for more! I guess that proves it, ghosts are the true master race.
(Please note: No members of the Ghostbusters are allowed in the DNC during this fight.)
Well... she did (at least help) stop a giant rock from smashing into her planet. So if anyone has a chance of beating rock (not likely) it'll be her. King of Noobs 13:26, March 3, 2015 (UTC)
It's gotta be aeris/th.Shadow123367 (talk) 18:58, March 3, 2015 (UTC)
Voting for Aeris purely due to King of Noobs comment above. Although I think I'll still be voting for rock next week. --Ffgamesftw (talk) 11:58, March 4, 2015 (UTC)

Votes for Ghost Galuf
I vote for a guy this time. Monterossa (talk) 09:55, March 3, 2015 (UTC)
Aerith's scene makes me cry while Galuf's one does not, but as we vote for ghosts rather than dying people, I'm going with the old man. --Flüstergras 11:29, March 3, 2015 (UTC)
No disrespect for Aerith, but Galuf not only had a purpose in FFV, but when he died, it left a big impact for many players, and it DIDN'T require a well-placed song to do it. (Least not at the exact moment). I could go on. MechaKaiser, who else? (talk) 16:57, March 3, 2015 (UTC)
Unlike Aerith (was only a bit sad at this), Galuf's death made me bawl tears the first time I saw that happen... :( Crashb2007 (talk) 20:57, March 3, 2015 (UTC)
One of the greatest old men who were playable characters. That's got a lot of clout for me. Luacas (talk) 23:39, March 3, 2015 (UTC)
Put simply, Aerith sucks compared to Galuf. He's scrappier, 1,000x spunkier, funnier and Infinitely more awesome and didn't lose his personality over the years. And he uses big rocks as a ride, he knows his way around a mineral.--AnonyMan (talk) 00:06, March 4, 2015 (UTC)
Died and kept fighting.--Otherarrow (talk) 19:48, March 4, 2015 (UTC)

For the record, we probably won't allow Galuf vs Rock to happen again. Unless Scathe finds it funny enough to run it again. -- SomeColorMage~(Talk) 09:25, March 3, 2015 (UTC)
Week 338: Last Man Standing Round 85: Incredibly Half-Assed Edition: A Rock vs An Edea
CHAMPION THAT ROCK YOUR GARDEN VICTORY 13-7.5
LAST MAN STANDING
CHALLENGER EDEA KRAMER LEE FINAL FANTASY VIII BRAVELY DEFAULT DEFEAT 13-7.5
So on this side, we have a rock. Not sure what kind of rock but it's being thrown at something, so I guess it's good for that.
On the other side, an Edea. Not sure which Edea, I wrote this a week in advance. But either way they have a very stunning fashion sense.
Note that along with Throw Stone, the Squire skillset also contains an ability called Steel. Stone is a kind of rock and steel is a kind of metal. Rock and metal are kinds of music. Therefore this side is musical, while the other is not. CATUSE 07:48, February 23, 2015 (UTC)
I'd like to have a special fight: The rock in the garden vs. that Bartz in the fridge. --Flüstergras 10:10, February 23, 2015 (UTC)
Sexier character, more endearing, looks cooler, funnier more badass. I could go on. Edea can't hang, maybe if it were a plastic.AnonyMan (talk) 12:12, February 23, 2015 (UTC)
Rock is love. Rock is life. King of Noobs 17:57, February 23, 2015 (UTC)
We will, we will rock you like Kuja's Theme Primarch Dysley 20:30, February 23, 2015 (UTC)

Rolling into the champs seat. Shadow123367 (talk) 19:34, February 25, 2015 (UTC)
Unlike the other character this one can actually hang out with you. Although calling it a freind might make people think you've hit "rock" bottom --Ffgamesftw (talk) 01:23, February 26, 2015 (UTC)
Only because this side rocks. JC Holy Knight (talk) 01:37, February 28, 2015 (UTC)

sexier character. Monterossa (talk) 07:45, February 23, 2015 (UTC)
I refuse to participate on the left side's attempt (funny as it may be) to make an inanimate object more loved than just about anything. Plus I'm afraid she'd do more damage to me should I chose the other guy, er, thing. MechaKaiser, who else? (talk) 14:31, February 23, 2015 (UTC)

I would've voted rock but only if Tetsuya Nomura designed it with long flowing braided bangs. 120.147.119.29 22:40, February 24, 2015 (UTC)
The Democrats should run a ridiculous meme candidate in 2016. "Vote Rock in 2016, he is America's Foundation." Enough people will be swayed by ironic stupidity that they will be a shoe-in to defeat the inevitable Republican president. --BlueHighwindツ 15:17, February 28, 2015 (UTC)
A rock would probably get more done than our current government, sadly enough. King of Noobs 20:22, February 28, 2015 (UTC)
btw if someone were to draw a rock with long, flowing braided bangs we would probably run it as an image. Not that many good pictures of a rock on the site. -- SomeColorMage~(Talk) 04:47, March 2, 2015 (UTC)
I know about this Edea than the other one... Crashb2007 (talk) 00:34, February 17, 2015 (UTC)
Meh. Edea Lee would most likely be one of the characters I like least in BD anyway. Gotta respect someone who took precautions to take herself out due to shenanigans she knew the consequences of them.--AnonyMan (talk) 12:14, February 19, 2015 (UTC)
Edea is better than Edea. --Flüstergras 15:40, February 19, 2015 (UTC)
The original Edea. GoldenChocobo 12:24, February 21, 2015 (UTC)
I loved this Edea, while I know almost nothing about the other. JC Holy Knight (talk) 23:06, February 21, 2015 (UTC)
She should have totally been a permanent playable character, lover her look.--Juicy Boy (talk) 01:56, February 22, 2015 (UTC)
Ideally, I'd vote for Edea Lee! :D TMG- Why? (talk) 11:16, February 16, 2015 (UTC)
Having finally played Bravely Default, I can safely put my vote here and not feel bad about it at all. For Edea! King of Noobs 12:59, February 16, 2015 (UTC)
I am voting for the one whose popularity doesn't come from someone else wearing them as a suit.--Otherarrow (talk) 05:15, February 17, 2015 (UTC)
Her theme song "Hinadori" has the best vocalized version and it is pure awesome. Mierna 05:33, February 17, 2015 (UTC)
Merely voting for the more familiar candidate is a poor way to vote, but I suppose it'll have to do for now. I really liked Ms. Lee's development in Bravely Default, and I'm excited to see her grown up even more in Bravely Second. Unfortunately, as cool as I think Ms. Kramer is, I've yet to get very far in FFVIII. MetroSubwayAndroid (talk) 03:51, February 23, 2015 (UTC)

You say that like it's a bad thing. EdeaEdeaEdea ~ (Edea) 05:43, February 17, 2015 (UTC)
I don't want a Sorceress who is possessed by a being who wants to achieve time compression anywhere near me, thank you very much. I would much rather have Beetlejuice than her... The other Edea would be cool though (All the shopping trips we could go on! :D ) TMG- Why? (talk) 11:42, February 17, 2015 (UTC)
Well, if you're assuming I meant that Edea, she got better. But, uh, I'm not a big fan of any VIII characters except for Laguna. And if you say his name three times, he doesn't show up, you just turn into a moomba. -- SomeColorMage~(Talk) 08:36, February 18, 2015 (UTC)
