That's pretty easy to figure out... especially if you saw that scan way back when the Limit Cuts were first shown with Wisdom vs Water Forms lol... He was the first one I beat too...
If we're talking about Re:CoM, then Darkball has a different effect, called Duel Trigger... unfortunately, I can't translate the effect, but I presume that every card you use (until you reload, and it's Riku exclusive in that version by the way) triggers a duel (something else they added... just look at some of the Riku Re:CoM boss vids here if you don't know what it does lol)
There's also Xemnas: Guard after the first attack of a combo. Also halves fire, ice, lightning, and non-elemental damage
Xigbar: Raise the damage of ranged sleights by 50%. Also halves fire, ice, lightning, and non-elemental damage
Xaldin: A barrier of wind surrounds you, damaging foes that touch you. Also halves fire, ice, lightning, and non-elemental damage
Zexion: Confuses enemies you attack. Also halves fire, ice, lightning, and non-elemental damage
Saïx: Makes the combo finisher more powerful. Also halves fire, ice, lightning, and non-elemental damage
Demyx: Doubles water damage. Also halves lightning. and non-elemental damage. You are also immune to ice damage while this card is in use
Luxord: Break every card your opponents play, regardless of numbers. Also halves fire, ice, lightning, and non-elemental damage
Technically, the Roxas card does 2 hits per attack, rather than just double damage
There are also 2 other cards that are used in the same way, but they aren't enemy cards lol
Personally, I prefer Re:CoM... the original IS very good, but I HATE the Dodge Roll/Side Jump control... Maybe it was just me, but half the time, it just didn't work... Re:CoM's version is infinitely better, plus it just isn't the same looking at 2d attacks compared to 3d... and I love Lethal Frame (a new sleight added to Re:CoM, gained at Level 32)... Sora stopping and repeatedly slicing an opponent = awesome lol
But I digress, the better version (in my opinion, anyway) is Re:CoM... new sleights for both characters, new cards... I could keep going, but I won't lol
About a 0.01% chance of actually being the case there... Ven looks to be about 14... and that, quite frankly, is TOO young for that... older brother is MUCH more believable... unless he is CONSIDERABLY older than he looks, you can kick that theory out...
BTW, anyone notice Axel's face in the centre pic on the first scan...? He's GLARING... We don't see him actually glaring much... except in the scene in FMII where he's ordered to finish matters with Roxas (one way or another), interactions with Saïx, and when facing away from Marluxia... NO other times...
I have to disagree with that... she runs about the same as Cliff, Mirage, and Sophia... and as far as Freya goes... it's been proven Maria can beat her solo... maybe you're just not used to her hit-and-run combat style?
Wrong... Ansem found 'Xehanort' YEARS before BBS (see the Secret Ansem Reports for details)... so appearing AFTER BBS would make no sense... Also, 'a man' is FAR from specific...
