Attackers will start by the Ferry Docks, with defenders starting at the Drowning Wench. Which side will win?

Guidelines
- The fight will occur in real-time (like an FMV sequence). Gameplay mechanics are less important than how the characters would function in a real-time environment.
- The members of each team are ideal teammates capable of a pre-selected plan of battle.
- "Broken" refers to a lot of things, including insta-death, auto-effects, a variety of status effects (e.g., Imp, Silence, Stop, *not* Poison), and revival. Unless stated otherwise, nobody has them, though do use your own discretion.
- There may be SPOILERS from all of the games the characters are from.

Raiden is as seen in Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance with access to all of his weapons (save the Fox Blade) and upgrades available in that game. He doesn't require Zandatsu to recover. He has access to roughly one full bar of energy for Blade Mode and Ripper Mode. He also randomly has the power to expel lightning from his body in a limited capacity, as seen in Metal Gear Solid 4. He will start the battle naked and fully human. He'll run and cartwheel around the terrain, desperately hoping to avoid being seen. If he makes it to the other end of the terrain, Snake will be there to give him his gear back -- in this case his exoskeleton, weaponry and lightning powers. For some strange reason, all the enemy mercenaries after Raiden gets his equipment back will be using swords almost exclusively, and will have their weaponry replaced with blades for Honorable Samurai Combat.

Sorey is as he appears in Tales of Zestiria, with all orbs and talismans (though they buff only himself and his seraphim) and an endgame skill build. He enters the battle with 5 Blast Gauges and may armatize freely with his seraphim during the course of the battle, but armatization cannot be used to revive anyone. He does not have access to Siegfried.

Lailah, Mikleo, Edna and Dezel are accompanying Sorey into battle. They are as they appear in Tales of Zestiria, with an endgame skill build. They will enter battle with 5 Blast Gauges, and will be permanently invisible and inaudible to Y'shtola, Selvaria, Lu Bu, Joshua Fireseed, and Squall. Only two Seraphim may be on the battlefield at a time, with Lailah and Dezel beginning on the battlefield, and the others dwelling inside him. He may swap between them as seen in the game, and inactive seraphim will heal gradually over time, including from death, but they are considered defeated once Sorey is killed.
