Pop Culture Showdown Day 21: Squall vs. Dizzy

[Gaffit]

You know how this goes. Vote for who you think would win in an all-out battle to the death.

Note that as this is a Who-Would-Win based tournament, it would be appreciated if you read and take part in the debate on tactics and fighting ability before voting; you can change your vote any time you want before the polls close. After the polls are closed, I will spend a day writing out a battle between the two combatants and post it in the next showdown topic, with the winner being decided by the winner of the poll. If you would like to suggest a location for the battle, feel free to do so.

If anyone feels like they absolutely have to write out a battle themselves, feel free to send me what you have in mind, and I'll probably enjoy the day off. 

Now then, on to battle!

Squall Leonhart



Squall Leonhart: Final Fantasy VIII: A man who went from student to hero, Squall possesses amazing speed, dexterity and strength. Squall learned to fight at the famous Balamb Garden military academy, gaining multiple allies as he went. He eventually ended up saving the world while armed with his trademark Gunblade and more magic, items and summons than you can shake a stick at without accidently activating some sort of death spell. The power Squall gained along his epic journey would make any final boss quake at the knees.

Dizzy



Dizzy: Guilty Gear Series: The details of Dizzy’s birth remain largely unknown. It is known that her mother is the Command Gear Justice, making her a Half Gear, whose natural powers include extreme resilience, as shown by her ability to survive a 20,000 foot fall, and longetivity, as shown by her unchanged appearance 100 years later. Dizzy possesses the ability to shapeshift her body into any form she want, but specializes in changing her wings. She also has the ability to summon powerful energy attacks. Although she is normally a nature-loving pacifist, her sheer strength is more than enough to warrant the $500,000 bounty on her head.

[Gaffit]

Within his dark lair upon the earth, the tentacled Demon Shuma Gorath sensed a powerful presence heading for him. The Demon twirled around to face nothing more than shadows.

“I apologize if I’m trespassing upon this hell-stained pit, but I find it necessary in order to achieve my ends,” came the voice of a man who stepped from the shadows, revealing a robed figure fitted with a Guy Fawkes mask.

 “And who do you think you are, to invade the realm of a God?” Shuma Gorath asked.

“Some vicariously view the visage of a vicious vengeance-seeking villain, while others veer their gaze towards a virtuously vigilant victor. Verily the vexed yet vast motives of such a vivified vanguard of justice and values remain vigilant. Evil, vice and vermin are the targets of my violence and this vanquishing includes you. You may call me V.”

“You are here to fight me? I will destroy you!” The demon shouted.

“Vainly.” V whispered as he drew two of his daggers.

A ball of energy appeared in front of The Lord of Chaos and shot at V, who dodged it sideways with incredible speed while throwing his daggers at the Demon. Shuma Gorath turned to liquid to dodge the projectiles and re-solidified behind V, grasping him with his tentacles.

V quickly unsheathed another dagger and swiftly cut through the tentacles that held while putting a good amount of distance between them.

Shuma Gorath roared angrily as his removed tentacles quickly sprouted from their stumps, completely healing over.

“This is… unfortunate,” V noted to himself.

The Chaos Demon launched several eyeballs at the revolutionary that blew up as they landed at his feet, resulting in an explosion that blasted V off his feet.

Shuma Gorath launched himself into the air above V and formed his tentacles into a drill, hurling them into V, who rolled away just in time, while slicing all the Demon’s tentacles off with one swipe of his dagger.

Shuma Gorath hit the ground with a thump as a ball of limbless purple goo. V charged the Demon as a blast emitted from his eye into V.

An ungodly scream emerged from the Demon as V planted his dagger dead center in the creature’s eye. V dropped the metal plate he stashed beneath his vest which now had a massive hole blown through the center of it.

Shuma Gorath’s tentacles grew back as he yanked the dagger from his eye, resulting in a violent squirt of demonic blood before he was able to heal it.

V breathed hard as the Demon pulled himself up before him.

“Are you prepared to die mortal?” Shuma Gorath spat.

“I am not mortal, for behind this mask is an idea. And ideas can never die, no matter how many time they are killed,” V said, pulling himself up to his full height.

“We’ll see about that,” The Lord of Chaos stated as ball of energy appeared before him, launching itself into the unprotected V, who calmly closed his beneath his mask.

[ganonfloyd]

interesting fight.

Gonna go with Dizzy though.

[Z911]

If Dizzy goes insane, she'd win easily. If not, then I'd say it would be an interesting battle considering how Dizzy would be attempting to hold herself back.

[Gaffit]

I don't know. Squall has some pretty powerful summons and magic in his arsenal...

[ganonfloyd]

hm, forgot about Summons.

oh well, I'll change.

Dizzy's way cooler though.

[Gaffit]

I haven't played much Guilty Gear, what happens when Dizzy "Freaks out"?

[ganonfloyd]

well, her wings have their own thoughts and bodies. One is called Necro. In Guilty Gear XX, Necro managed to take over Dizzy for sometime, and he went on a rampage. Dizzy normally doesn't like fighting, but when Necro had full control he went around destroying other fighters with her power until Faust cured her of his control.

[Z911]

Well she was able to completely obliterate I-no with a wave of energy when she went unconscious and Necro took over. I-no's among the more powerful characters in GG as well. Dizzy's also incredibly resilient and was able to survive a 50,000 foot drop to Earth once without any apparent injury too.

[ganonfloyd]

GAH.

I forgot about the fall.

damnit, this one is tough...

[Gaffit]

I think physcially, Squall would be about as powerful as Cloud was in Advent Children, with the added benefit of Magic, The Guardian Forces and Items.

I think if Squall can simply cast Heal enough or cast Reflect, he'd come through alright. Not sure though, it seems like this fight would be over pretty quickly given the strength of both.

[GSD]

Squall.

And I really enjoyed reading that fight...

[Adol the Red]

I'm going with Dizzy because in the CD Drama she easily obliterated a fleet of warships by herself in seconds.

[Gaffit]

Squall.

And I really enjoyed reading that fight...

Thanks! 

I'm going with Dizzy because in the CD Drama she easily obliterated a fleet of warships by herself in seconds.

I'm not going to claim to be an expert on these two characters, but it seems that Bahamut could do similar...

[Adol the Red]

Not only that like her mother she can seize control of Thousands of Gears to fight alongside her.
