It seriously needs to be Bartre Vs. Karla in the final. What better way to end a marriage-themed VG than re-enacting the way that couple actually met?

True!😙

Part of Karla recruitment dialogue:

Bartre:
“Meeting me here will be your doom! I must erase the shame I met on the Western Isles! Come! We duel!”

Karla:
“…Oh, I remember you. You’re the guy who came out of nowhere and challenged me… The one I knocked out with my first sword stroke.”

Bartre:
“The Bartre before you is not the same one you faced then! I will have my revenge for the Isles here in Ostia! Now, dig up some courage, and do your worst!”

 

A Support:

"Bartre: Enough, braggart! You’re no better than me! We are the same, you and I!
Karla: …Except that I am a woman.
Bartre: I–!
Karla: …What? Are you so surprised? Surely you must have realized this before now!
Bartre: Err… No! I’m sorry! I mean, I forgot!
Karla: You forgot? Whatever do you mean?
Bartre: …From the first time I met you on the battlefield, I saw a beautiful girl… But…after I fought you and realized your strength, I only saw the greatest warrior I had ever met.
Karla: ……
Bartre: Did I anger you?
Karla: No. It’s just…
Bartre: Just what?
Karla: Bartre, you are a good man.
Bartre: Hnh?
Karla: I will train harder, so that I do not betray your expectations of me. Farewell.
Bartre: K-Karla. What was I thinking! That was the absolute stupidest thing I could have said! What’s wrong with me! Am I…in love? Wauuuugghhhhhh!"

 

Although going off the data for their rematch at the end of  the Nergal incident, Bartre should win as long as he has the Iron Rune to be immune to Crits. With base stats + Warrior promotion bonuses + a Swordreaver, Bartre can survive Karla's recruitment duel if she doesn't crit.

Which just speaks to the gulf between her in FE7 and her in this game. She can't with certainty ORKO someone with 32 HP and 9 Def, despite coming four fights from the very end.

...Now I really question why Karla ever even considered marrying that clown...

EDIT: WHAT DEIRDRE ACTUALLY WON!! SIGURD MAY TRIUMPH! 😄

Lol, we still lost though I did finish at rank 36 in Team Karla. Welp, time to make amends and join Deirdre for the finals.

Love works in numerous ways.

[Sentinel07]

Wow, Deirdre with the comeback win!

I guess it does, yeah...

Though not that I thought Bartre didn't have a good heart, it's his head I find weird.

Sweet, Deirdre prevailed. Pity I had to go and forget about the VG, missing the final multiplier. Oh well.

[Xenomata]

So... I was on Deirdre's team, but only did enough battles to get the rewards, so...

Man, this gauntlet is downright bleh for me. I'm barely doing anything.

[NSSKG151]

So, Bartre won? I'm on his team and got the 500 extra feathers. I wasn't around for the final hour of the round but did Pent not the final multiplier?

No, Pent did have the final multiplier. Bartre apparently didn't give a shit, just punched Pent in the face and then proceeded to bench press him.

That's...interesting considering Bartre was the smaller team from my understanding.

Well, his multiplier gains were actually outgaining Pent's multiplier gains at times so I guess the feather mercs inadvertently led Bartre to victory not unlike Shanna all those VGs ago.

FE7 characters are so intensely relatable. I've been there, Bartre. Hnhhh-!?

Looks like the bulk of feather mercenaries were hiding on Team Bartre if we lost. Well, my net total from this VG thus far is a cool 5500 feathers so I'm not going to complain about being Team Pent, GG Bartre. I think I'll go Karla for the finale. It might be easy to rank high if I manage to discover the occassional multiplier.

Edit: Oh, no Karla? Deirdre I guess.

Hm, I usually have him equip an Iron Bow just to make sure he doesn’t kill her by accident. Iron Rune is a must. 

Anyway, it’s Bartre VS Deidre for the finals. Bartre should avenge his wife.

Here, I updated the Predictor's link by changing it to the 2nd version of DarkAlf's Predictor. I believe now it's right.

Oh, thanks! it sure helps me a lot during the second round. 

It is in error again though? 

[Stroud]

This could be the first time since a long time I'll be in  the winning team starting round one. Go Deirdre!

But overall I am happy with this setup, Bartre against Deirdre. Both are characters I like!

Try this one: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1M_W5UEWsL1opN5jjUVp0Jr0hGdoh86ldp3trlZcCSdc/edit#gid=70440011

DarkAlf did 2 Predictors, just in case one of them gets problems.

Thanks again!

also, man, this round was brutal, Deirdre's first hour score is nearly 5x Bartre's, look at all disadvanatges Bartre can get.

Golden chance to burn flags tho

Yep. Team Bartre is the most Team Feathers we ever got!

I was really shocked to wake up to see that Deirdre won. A very nice surprise. XD

Yeah, I was like "WHAT NO WAY" myself when I got my victory feathers. For the first time, we not only both picked the same team(s) but also picked the same ones throughout the whole thing. What a change. XD

[Etrurian emperor]

Pent....lost? NO!

I didn't even know Barte had supporters to begin with.

[Vicious Sal]

Karla nooooooo... =[ 

Oh well, time to Naga up!

He dangled Feathers in front of mercenaries like me. I normally do mercenary work for the first two rounds and support which ever character I prefer more during the last round, but sometimes my mercenary contract gets extended.

[EricaofRenais]

Well team Bartre it is since I have him.  I actually changed my lead from V!Lilina to Kaze since colorless can be hard to get.
