Votes for Shadow

 * 1) Usually I would side with the Nobodies... but... the Creeper is too pathetic.  22:49, 22 May 2011 (EDT)
 * 2) Shadow is cute. [[File:EtherRCO.png]]==Pea 14733== [[File:AeroRCO.png]] 22:57, 22 May 2011 (EDT)
 * 23:35, 22 May 2011 (EDT)
 * 23:57, 22 May 2011 (EDT)
 * 1) I love how this thing thinks it can hurt me.--Bananaphone1996 03:19, 23 May 2011 (EDT)
 * 2) Can't beat the classics. 20:52, 23 May 2011 (EDT)
 * 3) I think all he need is a hugzzz. 21:08, 23 May 2011 (EDT)
 * 4) This is some classic Kingdom Hearts. Creepers are too overrated. 23:04, 23 May 2011 (EDT)
 * 5) Cute, classic, [insert further adjectives beginning with c here]. 05:59, 25 May 2011 (EDT)
 * 6) First enemy we were introduced too. - JTD 13:42, 25 May 2011 (EDT)
 * 7) It's hard to beat the original-- 00:02, 29 May 2011 (EDT)
 * 8) Heartless beat Nobodies 200,000-1.--My Keyblade + Your face = pwnage 20:26, 29 May 2011 (EDT)Chihuahuaman

Votes for Creeper

 * 1) It can turn into a sword and cause massive damage, what can the Shadow do? 04:48, 23 May 2011 (EDT)
 * 2) I'm not voting for an oversized ant. 07:16, 23 May 2011 (EDT)
 * 3) Oversized ant. xD-- Xion 4  ever  18:11, 23 May 2011 (EDT)
 * 4) All the Shadow can do is pounce. Meanwhile, the Creeper has multiple ways it can devastate its prey. Therefore, the Creeper is BIWINNING. -- 20:36, 23 May 2011 (EDT)
 * 5) These things were almost dangerous on Proud Mode, though I'll give Shadows style points.20:42, 23 May 2011 (EDT)
 * 6) These things are literally tranformers. They can transform into (Okat, I'll admit it. almost) anything. The shadows just.....pounce at you and hide in the ground.
 * 7) These formless horrors are deliciously eldritch. 02:21, 25 May 2011 (EDT)

Keyblade Graveyard
Also, technically, the Creepworm is the weakest Heartless. 22:51, 22 May 2011 (EDT)
 * And, Yen Sid states that Dusk is the most common form of Nobodies. [[File:EtherRCO.png]]==Pea 14733== [[File:AeroRCO.png]] 23:15, 22 May 2011 (EDT)
 * Creepworms only appear in one game and not all of them. Creepers are the weakest, but are not the most common, such as Pea had said. 04:47, 23 May 2011 (EDT)

@Erry: Creepers transform, but Shadows can cause terrible, terrible damage. -- 23:21, 23 May 2011 (EDT)
 * Counterargument: Shadows are not BIWINNING. -- 00:48, 24 May 2011 (EDT)
 * Scratching is not considered terrible, terrible damage in my book. Sword slashes and lance slashes, are. 05:27, 25 May 2011 (EDT)
 * Shadows are classic enemies that could strike some fear into young, first time players. The Creepers are just large metalic ants. Eat that Erry.--My Keyblade + Your face = pwnage 20:34, 29 May 2011 (EDT)Chihuahuaman
 * Well then, their fault for not having any courage. Not mine. I'm a pro player and I don't even need to hit these guys, Donald and Goofy take care of 'em straight away. While with the Creeper, you need to time hits right since they can turn into lances and swords and hit you without notice. 20:40, 29 May 2011 (EDT)

Are you kidding? I can easily waste Creepers AND Shadows. Neither of them are strong, but Shadows are stronger. They sink in the ground if your not fast enough, and no Reaction Commands can force them back up. Why you insist that Creepers are better is beyond me.--My Keyblade + Your face = pwnage 13:19, 30 May 2011 (EDT)Chihuahuaman
 * I don't think anyone was suggesting either of them were hard to beat. Shadows aren't stronger; hiding isn't strength. They might be trickier, but Creepers have gotten my into the alarm zone once or twice in Proud mode during the Roxas tutorial of KHII.13:38, 30 May 2011 (EDT)

True. But the only time Creepers ever posed a threat to me was in the crappy Level 99 Underworld challenge.--My Keyblade + Your face = pwnage 22:02, 30 May 2011 (EDT)Chihuahuaman
 * Fair enough, and like I said in my vote, the Shadows definnitely get style points. They're much more memorable and iconic of Heartless.22:45, 30 May 2011 (EDT)

Votes for Zack

 * 1) Less emo, more awesome. -- 21:15, 14 May 2011 (EDT)
 * 2) The scene where he asks out Aqua was hilarious. -- 21:19, 14 May 2011 (EDT)
 * 3) Much better character, not just a stereotypical quiet, reserved, reluctant hero archetype. 21:55, 14 May 2011 (EDT)
 * 4) In FF, Cloud barely earned his gloominess, and in KH he didn't at all. At least Zack's upbeat.23:12, 14 May 2011 (EDT)
 * 5) I always had prefer backstory then the actual story. 23:56, 14 May, 2011 (EDT)

Votes for Cloud

 * 1) I have one wing.  And you don't.  SUCK ON THAT!   21:45, 14 May 2011 (EDT)
 * 2) Yes.
 * 3) Storm, rain down! 00:00, 15 May 2011 (EDT)
 * 06:47, 15 May 2011 (EDT)
 * 1) I'm looking for a guy with EXTREME SPIKEY IMPOSSIBLE STONE-GEL HAIR! 19:57, 15 May 2011 (EDT)
 * 2) Cloud's outfit is much cooler than Zack's - JTD 08:42, 16 May 2011 (EDT)
 * 3) Zack may have come first in the story's timeline, but we were introduced to Cloud first, and Zack will never replace him Cloud > Zack -- 12:34, 16 May 2011 (EDT)
 * 4) Cloud wastes all, except maybe me....

... Wow. So this is essentially picking between a moldy, year-old sandwich or a moldy, year-old hot dog. You lose either way, you're just picking which is the lesser of two evils. -- 21:48, 22 May 2011 (EDT)
 * Whatchu talkin bout, Willis? Zack is teh awesome sauce. -- 21:55, 22 May 2011 (EDT)

Doesn't this battle end at 21 May? ==Pea 14733== 22:03, 22 May 2011 (EDT)
 * Didn't the world end on May 21? Yeah, someone should probably get on changing it. 22:05, 22 May 2011 (EDT)
 * I laughed so hard at the 'Zombie Apocalypse' There really should be more noms by the way. No offense at all Chitalian, but Shadow vs Creeper was not the best nom we've ever had. 22:30, 22 May 2011 (EDT)
 * Then you should've nom'd something, I didn't realize that no one else would. 07:24, 23 May 2011 (EDT)
 * I'm sorry Chitalian I did not mean that AT ALL to be offensive. I'm merely stating that it wasn't the most spontaneous, creative, out of the ordinary nom that's ever been done. I mean, compared to what I've got (nothing) your nom is really good. Unfortunately I couldn't think of anything. *pumps up creative juices* 23:02, 23 May 2011 (EDT)

If the battle ended on Saturday then my vote is rendered ineligible, as I voted on Sunday. Zack wins.

Votes for Decisive Pumpkin
