Okay, here's my thoughts:
The animation is pretty good, and the edits to the sprites are pretty good too, but there are a few issues that I think ruin it, and here they are.

1. It is a sprite animation.
Yes you've done the animation well, but it's not made completely with content you've made yourself, the sprites are obviously ripped from Maplestory, and thus aren't truly your creations.

2. The voices and sounds weren't amazing, but the sounds you did use were good, and here's my explanation;
In a combat animation, you at least expect footsteps to make a noise, not to sound like I am nitpicking or anything, but considering how you've implemented other sounds, you could have at least included footsteps, the sounds of certain things hitting, and collegeEdge getting impaled too.

3. There's no impressive actionscript used here, there's a preloader that autoplays, but because of that, when the animation stops, it automatically replays again. You could have fixed this by putting a stop command at the end, then giving the viewers a choice to replay using a button or something, it's not too difficult to do, and there are several tutorials online on how to do this.

Other than lack of proper plot or story, it was pretty good. I suggest working on animations more, and learning to draw and animate on flash using the tools included in the software, opposed to using sprites.

For example, you could learn to draw your characters using the pencil or paint tools and then tween/frame-by-frame with those.
