Quad, Hart, Bateman, Kjata, Bishop, and Ludo were inspired by an awesome idea from IdesofMarch and his friends to do a class draft 1.3 challenge.

Rules:
Squire/Chemist/Mime are common classes (available to all players and not featured in the draft).
BUT in each battle there is a limit of 3 instances (total) of Item & Basic Skill (including Ramza's).
Poaching may be used, but players without the Thief class must wait until after Finath.
In the draft, each player gets to pick five classes.
Draft is Snake style (1-2-3-4-5-6-6-5-4-3-2-1-1-2-3-4-5-6-6-5-etc)
Cumulative brave+faith per unit allowed is 130.
Monsters are usable from start of game.
Over the course of the game your usable party members are limited to Ramza + 7 generics + 5 monsters.

Classes to be drafted are the 17 remaining base classes, Dark Knight, Onion Knight, Mustadio's Engineer, and some monsters. Full list in spoiler:

I'm partial to Bateman's team as it's eerily similar to my own, but Quad's seems really strong in the abstract.

I didn't even think about drafting monsters, but I'm totally stealing that for next time. Super stoked to hear how it goes.

I think quad has the best, and hart has the worst.

Just so everybody knows, I didn't pick ninja when I had the chance because quad said "inb4 ninja." So I spite picked lancer.

Poll.

I think Quad's team is best because it's being played by Quad. And even aside from that it probably has the best chance of beating Altima.

In retrospective, Bishop's pick is absolutely parallel to my playstyle, which is why I picked it. However, I'm still in love with my set up. Not only it's a mix of my old school and new school strats, but it also gives me the advantage of being good at both low levels, and high levels. And I'm tempted for the latter.

I voted quad. Dark Knights will make a lot of the generic battles easier. He also has Bard to get him through a lot of otherwise difficult battles, including Altima. Sage will make for good control via status effects, and Monk will offer good damage and a good skillset. Ghosts are a nightmare for physical users and they don't really crystalize. They also have some good synergy with Monks because they can avoid earth slash and Chakra can actually heal them. It seems like a well-rounded setup to me. His setup also provides Damage split, so that can make for some interesting tanky strats with Chakra.

I can see Bishop and Hart doing well, too. Look forward to seeing what happens

And no one has still mentioned quad's boner for cursed rings. That equipped on ramza means unholy champion, which opens many, many fun possibilities.

quudpolor, male, 70/60 Cancer
Adabbon, male, 70/60 Scorpio
Jkata, male, 70/60 Pisces
Satann, female, 64/70 Cancer
Boship, female, 64/70 Scorpio
Jart Junt, female, 64/70, Pisces
Mastur Bateman, female, 70/60, Cancer
Tim the Douche, Pisco Demon, 70/40, Cancer
Squidward, Squidlarkin, 70/40, Scorpio
Sunshine, Mindflare, 70/40, Pisces
Bacon, Uribo, 70/40, Cancer
Pork, Porky, 70/40, Scorpio

This draft just got real sinister. I gained a few levels in the process, but that fuckery alone was totally worth it.
