Cecil vs Cecil
Sora vs Roxas
>>388114007
Nothing even comes close to this fight
>>388114007
Not enough games do 1v1s like that.
Galuf vs Exdeath
RRRREEEEEEEEEPLIICAAAA
>>388115597
It's a bit of an unfair standard to hold others to, anon.
>>388115984
This.
God damn this was fucking cool.
Song was good too.Sam was a cool guy

This. Not only a cool rival fight with an opponent of the same size as yourself, but a literal clone fight.

>making Frog go out of character to seek petty revenge
>making Frog go out of character since Magus just revealed he is on the same side as you and you played the entire scenario that shows the misdeeds done to him
>making Frog go out of character, JUST BECAUSE MAGUS SAID SOMETHING MEAN ABOUT CRONO
you people don't deserve Frog, he is too good for you
Justin's various duels in Grandia. The combat system is really fun, but with a full party it's just way too easy.
>>388117462
His entire character revolves around Cyrus though.
>>388114007
Aw yeah, that fight was so badassI was kinda pissed when i found out you could get him to join your party instead
>>388116035
Not really that fair since you had your entire army
and party backing you up
>>388117713
Yeah, it was hardly a "1 vs 1 fight". More like beating down an exhausted and driven into a corner opponent.
>>388114007
Hard to say, despite how shit I am I love CURAYZEE and beat-em-ups like DMC and Asura's Wrath respectively
>>388118339
Who gets to go first?

I liked these guys cause of how crazy/silly it was
>Yasha kicks your ass, shows he's not really taking you seriously at all
>You kick Asura's ass to make him calm his ass down
>Fight while falling down a fuck ass huge tower in a flashback
>One last fight, finally beat Yasha
>"You were always a brother. Never an enemy."
On a second note, Asura vs Akuma felt so satisfying. His remixed theme was great
>>388122851
It helps that Yasha's theme is fucking awesome.
>>388119598
This is up there, just because it's a huge case of role reversal since Soma is Dracula. I honestly consider Julius the final boss. Yeah there's Chaos or whatever, but Julius is a way more impactful final fight
>>388114007
There are a lot of ways to handle this fight, I killed the guy with just a starting weapon knife and the Life rune.
>>388115597
to be honest, the Wizard/Sorcerer squadron fight right before it was more challenging and fun.
>>388122851
>That slow as fuck QTE leading up to the very last hit
>It disappears at the last second as Asura pulls his punch
Asura's Wrath was the only game to do QTEs right.
all time classic

REPLICA!!!!!!!!!
The original "1v1 me faget"
...
>>388123680
that moment was pretty cool.
Jonny is an alright guy.
Ludger vs Julius. Neither of them wanted to do this, but it had to be done.
>>388123680
HOW DARE YE DODGE THE BARREL
>>388120508
Came to post this
>>388121337
Well yeah, it's why it plays in the arena instead of the normal BGM when you're playing as one of the two and then fight the other as fighter #100
>>388116296
It's a fresher one so we'll see how it stands the test of time but I also found this was a stand out battle.
>>388117983
And yet he could still easily slaughter you in that duel.
>>388114007
>one on one duel
>in a JRPG
Sounds like a snoozefest. What exactly are you going to do? Hit them until you have low enough HP that you have to use a potion?
>>388123889
my nugget
>>388116296
>Get to this fight
>Sam spends the entire fight spamming the dash and jump attack, never using a single other move
I don't know why the AI chose to break there but it rather killed the mood.
Nothing else even comes close.
>>388114007
Either the final fight of Transistor or theGehrmanfight in Bloodborne.
Idk about my all time favorite but these are some good ones

>>388117983
>>388124639
This. It only seems unfair because a lot of people forget that Luca was literally a monsterous killing machine who could easily solo your entire army out of pure rage
>>388118294
MY MAN
>>388114007
The whole game
>>388117462
>making Frog go out of character
How the fuck is avenging your dead knight bro and lost honor by dueling the man who turned you into a frog to death out of character for Glenn?
Edgy faggot deserves what comes to him
>>388118339
I know it woulda made it less special, but I wish there were more moments like this. This brought a sense of logic and tactics to a game that mostly played out way more chaotically than it should ever have with it's mechanics.
>making your way through a difficult dungeon and your resources are low
>maybe you even just beat a tough boss and haven't saved
haha guess who wants to duel Gala to the death

>>388118657
How about.....you just stay in here and i'll just walk out of the fucking sword because you're going to kill yourself to jump back in anyway like a little bitch in five minutes and at least i'll try to chill in what's left of the city after my literal faggot friends ruined everything
>>388123261
Jesus, this is why CRT shaders exist. Or even better - actual crt
>>388123889
this moment was the height of my youger self gamer career. i remember nearly crying.
>>388118339
>>388125446
Seconded. Kudos for saving the best for last, but I wish a few more boss fights had that impact.
from the intro and working your way to this point was a journey
BEEP BEEP BEEP BEEP
This one was so awesome. Especially since it was optional to do it 1v1, and doing it with help was easier and had no consequences down the road. You'd just duel for the hell of it, and even have your party miss out on the EXP.
Nein
>>388125336
>avenging dead knight bro
more like spitting on his grave and abandoning what it means to be a knight and a hero. You aren't fighting the Dark Lord Magus, you are murdering Janus, the guy trying to get his sister back.
>>388115984
This. Sheena and Kuchinawa's duel from Symphonia is a close second, though

They're one and the same. Janus murdered Cyrus.
Janus is a fucking asshole that killed vast amounts of innocent lives, hurr burr my sister doesn't excuse that fact.
>>388126093
Finnegan was a cool guy. I kinda wish Soul Hackers fleshed out the Phantom Society as a whole a bit more.
These two going at it

dante vs vergil DmC
>>388127052
Soul Hackers is so fucking good. Dr. Victor is honestly the best fusion bro.
Say what you will about the Tales of series, but if there's one thing they know how to make, it's the duels

>there's a long empty walkway leading up to the final battle
>place half a dozen frag mines every two feet across it

Raiden vs Solidus. The scene right after you finish is excellent and possibly my favourite scene in the entire MGS series.
I also really likeLOSING MY IDENTITY WONDERING HAVE I GONE INSANE
This is the shit
>>388127719
Man, I hate the tales anime style. It's so void of shading. Everything's flat and bright
>>388127860
Fun fight.
Took forever to do on Extreme.
