wow. Soul made us all look stupid. i retract my earlier laughter. i really hope Leon's performance is attribute to Gordon genuinely increasing and Leon being a decent chearacter. i really do not want to see Megaman lose to Sonic. >_<

Jill 2k2 was at 27.37%...it's not to hard to see Leon at that level.

I wake up to see Mega Man not doubling freakin' Leon Kennedy? Yikes. Mega Man is lookin' like he could be in some trouble if he even makes it to Sonic <_<

I am absolutely intrigued to see tomorrow's match. Using Bowser, Pac Man is expected to do decently. Using Luigi, Pac Man is expected to get throttled. Either way... somebody is going to be chuckling LOL XStats.

There's no freaking way Yoshi is losing to Pac Man. I expect him to get 65% on Pac Man or better.

Wow. Surprisingly great job by Leon here.

Question: Leon or Diablo?

Ouch. What happened to you, Mega? For the love of my bracket, please let this be Leon and Gordon being strong(er).

It looks like megaman dropped a lot. And I first thought that Diablo > Leon, but after seeing this it's almost not possible anymore unless megaman is really that weak.

Gordon freeman probably did get stronger. he's had a very strong bracket support and hal-life 2 must have boosted his popularity by much.

GF vs Ocelot. who wins?

I think Ocelot would beat Gordon Freeman.

Diablo vs Leon could be an interesting match as well, but Leon seems to be a bit stronger.

I do think Freeman was stronger, and Leon has a decent fanbase.

But I also think Mega Man is weakening.

Year after year of crap games are finally starting to take their toll.

From: HaRRicH | Posted: 9/3/2005 7:50:18 AM | Message Detail
I really think this is Gordon and Leon showing strength more than Mega Man showing weakness; Mega Man had nearly done to Conker what his adjusted value was expected to do...and that is after C:L&R, too. Gordon also had good reason to gain, and Leon had good reason to be strong...

...though I still didn't think Leon would crack 30%; with him doin' nearly 36% here, I could see it bein' Mega Man taking a small dip, or at least being adjusted in 2k4 less. Hard to tell.....

^no, megaman just weakened, and he might not even make it past yoshi to be honest. He will die to sonic if does.

I doubt that Conker: Live & Reloaded would help Conker that much when Halo 2 has seemingly done jack **** for Master Chief.

Megaman will still make it to sonic, at this point with sonics over-performance against Diablo, and assuming that leon isn't that mcuh stronger than diablo if at all, it looks like he'll lose when he gets there.

Exactly. You know your grasping at straws when you have to raise Gordon freaking Freeman by huge proportions and have Leon at decent midcarder levels when all the other RE characters bombed in the spring contest to explain Mega Man doing so horribly.

From: dragoontheguy | Posted: 9/3/2005 7:59:42 AM | Message Detail
He isn't even close to the weakest in the contest, and he has had ahlflife 2 since the last contest. With that said this is an absolutely massive increase we would be looking at. Right now a static megaman puts him close to 20% on bl, if not higher.

And there has to be a limit to how much Megaman has fallen. Even if you bring him down a bit lower than unadjusted, Gordon Freeman still technically comes out of the fodder category.

If GF gets in next year pray to god he ends up with a 15 or 16 seed against a noble-nine character or else the universe at severe risk.

Sonic hasn't had too many good games over the years either.

Gordon Freeman can increase that much, and he's not the weakest character in the contest.

I said he would increase from HL2 but...

But this?

Sonic's portable outings have been some of the most popular games for the GBA, and whether you like them or not, all the GCN Sonic titles have been top sellers as well.

I would be inclined to agree but at this point it just looks like sonics fans haven't deserted as much on this site as megamans (if I'm not mistaken his stregth has gone down EVERY year).

we want CATS vs GF then the universe will hang in the balance in the greatest match ever.

CATS the strongest fodder character we have against a man who should be at zero's level but instead is at fodder level.

Kefka got 70% on Wesker and Diablo beat Kefka and got destroyed by Sonic. I'm not saying Leon is anywhere near as weak as Wesker, but Wesker should be more then absolute fodder if Leon is midcard level.

From: The n00b Avenger | Posted: 9/3/2005 8:13:38 AM | Message Detail
For the most part Wesker and Leon are unrelated. The only game they even share is RE4 where Wesker only appears in a mini-game after you complete the game. I don't think being from the same series is enough to warrant overall strength.

Besides, it's not like Jill has been weak in the contest. And even she has a little more to do with Wesker than Leon.

At this point wesker actually looks to be alittle lower than tails 2k4 value after lloyds performances against him and zero

"and he has had ahlflife 2 since the last contest"

I'd put just about any character in the contest over Freeman, including Pac Man. I just don't believe hes raised that much. Its not like PC games have any strong following on this site either. And dont bother bringing up Starcraft, because I would be willing to bet a heck of a lot that Starcraft was cheated for by some degree in every match it was in.

I can see Mega Man weakening.

When was the last time he had a really noteworthy game? The series just becomes more and more niche as the years go by, and the quality of the games is far, far past their prime.

Wesker is nowhere near Tails. Even with adjusted Zero. He's nowhere higher than 17 at the moment.

I always thought Mega Man's fanbase wasn't nearly as devoted as some of the other legends'. In all honesty, he's more like an extremely popular Pac-Man than anything else.

I always got exactly the opposite impression from MM. He has an extremely loyal and rabid fanbase that buy every damn game in the series, which is why it's still chugging along all these years.

I haven't owned a MM game since the 16-bit days.

I don't know, I never really got that impression from that many megaman fans anymore. Where as with SEGA they will defend they're favorite characters to the death (see how ryo hazaki came back all those times).

Leon is doing better then Tidus here! o_0

Mega has dropped a huge amount. Heck! Yoshi could give him a close match at this pace.

My prediction for the elite 8 is Sonic with 56%, and another bold prediction is that Tifa will score more on Sonic then Mega.
