Ah, but the question is, is it really Bartz who's winning that match, or is it Gilgamesh? Now, maybe I'm underestimating FFV fans (it's on my list of upcoming games to play, I swear), but with Gilgamesh's penchant for hilariously hammy lines and the fact that he keeps showing up in other games, I just get the feeling he might be the strongest character from FFV, which would make it just the second game (I think) where the strongest character is an antagonist.
Incidentally, the first such game is also a Final Fantasy game. (Come on, for all of his well-publicized flops, you've got to admit that Kefka's the strongest FFVI character in GameFAQs contests, right? Well, okay, maybe not; it's tough to tell since the game really hasn't gotten all that much representation. Terra's 2-3; Kefka's 5-7. Kefka padded his resume with Villains Contest wins, but Terra had a Female Bracket win so her record might be a bit padded as well. So I'm not really sure what to think.)
Uh...well, since I obviously have no clue what I'm talking about anymore, let's just agree that Bartz/Gilgamesh is picking up the win.
