Okay, here is my debate~!

Chrono Stone
We need to take into account Hikaru being a forward and Midorikawa being a midfielder when comparing their stats.


 * GP- Midorikawa's 147 is higher then Hikaru's 139.
 * TP- Hikaru just edges this one with 134, Midorikawa's is only 5 less with 129.
 * Kick- Being a forward, a high kick stat is needed. Hikaru succeeds in this with a stat of 144. Midorikawa's is a respectable 121 but Hikaru does have a higher chance of scoring.
 * Dribbling- Midorikawa wins this with 138 over 112. Being a midfielder though, this is only expected.
 * Block and Catch- Midorikawa is higher in both, but these stats aren't that important for both Midfielders and Forwards.
 * Technique- Hikaru loses out with 100 when compared to Midorkawa's 116.
 * Speed- This is where we need to take note. Midorikawa, someone who was once feared for his speed as the captain of Gemini Storm has a stat of 104. Hikaru on the other hand has a stat of 159. That's a massive difference. Midorikawa stands no chance of being able to catch Hikaru.
 * Stamina- Midorikawa would last longer with 102 when compared to Hikaru's 83.
 * Lucky- Hikaru has victory in this with 104 over 78. I know relying on luck isn't real strength but it's luck which always gets you out of those tough spots.

Go Game
Hikaru's hissastu are:
 * [SH] Extend Zone, Wood Element, 55TP
 * [SH] Koutei Penguin 7, Wind Element, 60TP, Long Shoot
 * [SH] Koutei Penguin 2gou, Wood Element, 50TP, Chain Shoot
 * [OF] Sprint Wrap, Void Element, 50TP

Midorikawa's hissastu are:
 * [SH] Fortissmo, Wood Element, 40TP, Chain Shoot
 * [SH} Extend Zone, Wood element, 55TP
 * [OF] Sprint Wrap, Void Element, 50TP
 * [DF] Deep Mist, Wood Element, 40TP, Shoot Block

Both characters are of the wood element so no advantage there. Both have Extend Zone and Sprint Wrap as well. Hikaru has both a long shoot and a chain shoot at his disposal. Midorikawa's chain shoot uses less TP as well, this makes him less likely to score. Midorikawa does have a block technique which to be honest, he won't use very much but could it stop Hikaru's Sprint wrap. Midorikawa would have a element bonus. Despite that though, the facts point to Hikaru winning. Sprint Wrap uses more TP making it stronger and he has higher luck and speed meaning he has more chance of winning. The same goes for if he tried to block his shots as well. Even though Midorikawa would have an element advantage against Koutei Penguin 7, higher TP use means it would probably break though Deep Mist.

Chrono Stone
Hikaru's hissastu are:
 * [SH} Extend Zone, Wood Element, 55TP, Chain Shoot
 * [SH] Koutei Penguin 2gou, Wood Element, 50TP, Chain Shoot
 * [OF] Muei Souha, Void Element, 40TP
 * [SK] Kick Plus 10, I'm not explaining it

Midorikawa's hissastu are:
 * [SH] Astro Break, Wood Element, 35TP
 * [SH] Gamma Strike, Wood Element, 55TP
 * [OF] Spinning Upper, Wind Element, 32TP
 * [SK] Wide Range, Makes the shoot range bigger, making it easier to trigger a chain shoot

Both now have two shots, one offense and one skill. Comparing them straight up, Extend Zone beats Gamma Strike due to it being a chain shoot and having a higher chance of scoring due to Hikaru's higher kick. Same goes for Koutei Penguin 2gou expect it also has higher TP use than Astro Break, making it stronger as well. Midorikawa has lost Sprint Wrap, it having been replaced by the weaker Spinning Upper. Hikaru on the other hand has gained a combination offense technique in Muei Souha, still being of the Void Element. Hikaru has Kick Plus 10, a good skill for a forward to have. Midorikawa's Wide Range is also a good skill but Kick Plus 10 makes it easier to score goals. What's the point of forwards? To score goals, that's what.

Anime

 * Hikaru has proven to be a quick learner after quickly learning to dribble and shoot in his first training session with the Raimon team.
 * Without Hikaru, Raimon wouldn't have been able to complete Double Wing which meant they would have lost against Hakuren. That and they would have been forced to call it Run Run Running as well. He also scored the first goal against them without using a technique. An impressive feat.
 * Hikaru has contributed more to the victories of Raimon then Midorikawa did to the victories of Inazuma Japan.
 * Hikaru did leave the team but that was due to him being brainwashed by Beta, not his own free will. He came back as soon as it was broken.

That was my debate, I hope it made both Beta and Ash proud. It's up to you two now to make sure we win this round. This was my first debate since I've not been able to take part in any of the previous rounds so any criticisms you have or any mistakes I've made, post a comment and I'll be sure to work on them for next time.
