Terra is one character I have trouble playing as. I'm not sure why, she just is hard to get to grips with. Playing against her is hard as well, her EX mode is indeed lethal.

Cecil is one of my mains, but he's definitely more potent in Paladin form. I use ground attacks very rarely (except maybe with Firion, he mid airs are bad), so I am mostly in Paladin anyway. I'd say he is one of my three mains, along with Squall and Shantotto.
