Which FF character would win in a fight when they face each other?

[Hero without a Name]

After watching Final Final Fantasy on Newgrounds.com, I had an interesting idea for a thread and I'm hoping a lot of people will participate. As we all know, the heroes/villans of Final Fantasy each have their own strengths, weaknesses.....but who would win in a fight to be the greatest of them all? Still confused? Let me explain some more.

I will start off with a vs match...for example Kain Vs Cloud....based on the vs I would decide who would win, and how they would by giving some details in the battle. Every person I will list below is allowed to be in the tournament. If they win, they continue on to the next round, if they lose...they are pretty much dead and are no longer allowed to be used in the vs battle....make sense? Alright here are the people allowed for the contest

Characters allowed in the vs battle
Firion
Guy
Lionheart
Emperor
Cecil
Kain
Rosa
Rydia
Yang
Edge
Golbez
Bartz
Faris
Galuf
X-Death
Shadow
Edgar
Sabin
Cyan
Terra
Kefka
Cloud
Tifa
Vincent
Cid
Barret
Sephorith
Squall
Zell (killed by Shadow)
Quistis
Ultemica
Zidane
Steiner
Vivi
Kuja
Tidus
Auron
Wakka
Lulu
Seymour
Balthier
Vann
Basch
Vayne

I know that's a lot of characters, but everyone you see her (I'm sorry for the misspellings is allowed to participate, anyone in there cannot be used in the vs battle...now we shall see who will win round one. I shall choose.....

Shadow vs Zell

Zell would try and get up close and attack Shadow head on, but Shadow would use his Ninja skills and make Zell hit a scarecrow, once Zell realizes it, Shadow will throw a sword at Zell's head taking him out. Winner of round 1....Shadow, Zell has been eliminated from the contest.

So now it's someone elses turn.....it will be Shadow vs ? and who will win. The answer lies in your hand.
