Dargoo Faust's [REDACTED] EDGES: "Magic Missile"

3rd Place: Rusalka Schwagelin

Normally, in these types of battles, the warrior with the greatest among of hax will most likely win, as bullets are to anime as is a Nerf Gun is to hyperactive cheetah. However, Rusalka loses this battle plainly because of her  lack of aerial mobility, as I see this being primarily an airborn fight and her insane reaction timing was still shown to stress her out against heavy machine-gun fire, let alone heat-seeking rounds and telekinesis. Rusalka has an edge in the early battle, I'll give her that, where everyone is still grounded and testing their opponents, yet when either of her opponents figure out her tricks, she's a goner. Pair that with a poor durability, and while her defeat isn't exactly an easy one, she ranks this low because her defeat is an inevitability. If this was Nuke Dura Rusalka this would be unfair, yes, but even then I can imagine situations where Izetta and Tanya temporarily team together and wear their enemy out with explosives from a distance. Her desire to torture her enemies and ultimately elongate combat makes things more complicated.

2nd Place: Izettta

Now we either get to a dogfight or one of the two remaining warriors owning Rusalka from the comfort of the skies. As the former situation will ultimately be more common, let's see which of them will survive this epic, explosive battle thousands of feet in the air. We have an interesting situation here: Izetta has the speed advantage and Telekinesis, yet Tanya has her heat-seeking rounds, superior offensive force, and better tactics and training. I'll say that Izetta will ultimately fall short, as while she might be able to outmaneuver Tanya in the sky, Tanya's skill set will more than make up for her shortcomings in speed. That said, I could actually see Izetta and Rusalka switch places depending on the early battle.

1st Place: Tanya von Degurechaff

Tanya wins this battle for taking edges in offensive combat and tactics, as well as having defensive magic to make up for her lack of speed. While every warrior here has a good chance of winning, ultimately Tanya will win more rounds than not. Being X looks broken as all hell, and given Izetta's poor durability and lack of defensive options I'd say she only needs one good shot to call this a day. Izetta's speed will make that a challenge, but Tanya will win the long game.
