Yay, Frog got an FMV shot!

This match will be interesting. My two least favorite characters ever against each other. (Excluding every FF9 character.)

Yeah, this is the face shot I'm hoping he gets:

I'd hope he would get something like that.

Looking at tomorrow's match, Samus is projected to get 62.07% - 65.86% depending on which value for Frog is closer (26.97 / 29.96). I'm personally hoping Frog gets as close to 40% as he can, if only to see him not get completely owned tomorrow.

I'm personally hoping that Frog does as bad as possible, so Sora looks much more impressive.

I'm hoping Frog does well, so it reinforces Sora > Alucard. >_>

By the way, what are the stats so far for the Mushroom Division (assuming adjusted Ness and non-20XXDF Zero, and that Zero keeps his current percentage on Lloyd).

Frog looks average and my hopes of a Phazon Suit Samus close-up are dashed.

Samus' picture looks really grainy, and unfinished, and Frog well it's a frog.... with whiskers... 3 whiskers.

And Samus looks really Asian if you look past the visor.

All of these pictures are looking like couples in a Photo Booth shot with one person trying to squeeze in to more of the picture. Mario/Ness could have even been a father/son type pic. <_<

The only decent pic has been Zero/Lloyd (I know there's only been three) but it's because it was done in the style it was done in. Everything else will look like crap.

I think Master Chief is one of few characters who the super face shot will benefit.

I think the super face shot will benefit the following:

Snake (at least we won't see Solid **** this round)
Sora (no clown shoes)
Alucard
Dante
Squall
Luigi (no TJF for Tifa)
Leon Kennedy

Either that doesn't make sense either, or I'm losing my mind.

Anyway, I agree with you pretty much, except I think Sora will benefit more than Alucard, since Alucard always looks badass, and Sora gets to hide his feet.

I'd only give Auron the edge if he gets that pic and Ganondorf gets a Wind Waker close-up.

From: Draco1214 | Posted: 8/21/2005 4:38:32 PM | Message Detail
I'm not at all confident about Ganon > Auron. Watching Diablo and Ocelot bomb has shown (at least to me) that the Villains Contest stats aren't reliable and that Ganondorf (along with Bowser) is overrated. I feel better about Sora > Alucard and Ryu > Bowser, but I feel like I lost two points already with Ganon/Auron.

Summer 2005 Contest - 32/36 points
Current Match Prediction: Samus Aran vs. Frog
From: outback | Posted: 8/21/2005 4:41:50 PM | Message Detail
I would agree with you, but there hasn't been a year in which Ganondorf hasn't been over Auron in the stats, and Bowser absolutely destroyed Chun-Li.

But what about the whole Magus incident. And Auron may have been the victim of SFF when he faced Sephiroth.

and Bowser absolutely destroyed Chun-Li.

Chun's a new character. I think she's closer to Bison (wherever he may rank) in strength.

I'm honestly worried as heck about Auron vs. Ganondorf, too. In fact...Auron beat Big Boss with 71.47%, while Ganondorf is expected to beat Kratos Aurion with 69.90%.

But, wait, yoblazer, you really think the Wind Waker picture HURTS Ganondorf?

Oh, and about Bowser destroying Chun-Li...just remember that Pac-Man = Chun-Li. Or, at least that picture of Chun-Li.

Seeing Ness, I think that's pretty much true. But how much was it really..? We can't see, as Ness is behind SFF, and Carl is a new character. Though, Donkey Kong proves Vivi didn't suffer that much. But seeing Cloud obviously SFF Auron, Sephiroth probably did it to a much less amount.

It would seem to be enough to be at least Zero's equal, considering they have a common opponent in Scorpion.

Looks like Llyod is just weak as ****.

I figured that Zero will easily double him, but I didn't think Zero could break 70% on him.

I think people were being a bit too hopeful thinking Lloyd could break 30% here. Nothing really pointed to that being the case.

Kratos would get about 35.4% on unadjusted Zero, and about 31.9% on adjusted Zero, assuming Spring Contest Diablo is correct.

Remotely interesting as in making Mario sweat for it? Not likely. He should get 45-46% tops.

I was thinking that Llyod could get 30% or so on un-adjusted Zero, thinking he shouldn't be too far from Kratos.

Apparently, this will be the first case where a non-main char >> the main char.

Auron, Kefka.

Auron > Tidus, but not Auron >> Tidus, even then we're still not exactly sure where those 2 stands.

Kefka is a special case as there's no "main char" in FF VI.
