Yeah yeah I'm early, whatever. Don't care. The main character from my favorite game is in a heated contest match and might -- MIGHT!! -- pull one off. I am downright giddy. The only game I've put more time into than Final Fantasy Tactics is Dota 1, and even then no one character in Dota has been in my life for more hours than Ramza.

So screw it.

Hey Mass Effect. "Silence! Surrender now or die in obscurity!"

I flipped back and forth on this match a lot but I eventually took Garrus. I wanted Ramza but he never wins on this site for some damn reason.

If any of these characters deserve a rally to win all, it should be Waluigi. He is the perfect troll character too.

Oh and Garrus is probably going to win like I predicted after the first hour too I guess

Just woke up and Garrus as a solid lead. I would have expected evening/night to be Ramza's strongest time also. Is that wrong or should I feel comfortable with Garrus now?

Pretty sure they are, which means Ramza is screwed since those dry up near the end of the match.
