Iunno, if Shadow's proven anything, it's that SA has a fanbase on the site. ...Sure, go ahead and bash me for bringing up Shadow, the only Sonic character who's had a win against Nintendo. --- September 22nd!

Against someone around her own strength, she's just not battle-tested. The point is that Amy Rose just isn't around her strength. She's fodder, easily. Hell, she's the second most hated Sonic character according to some ancient poll. --- Character Battle V Score - 8/8 points Current Prediction - Zelda vs. Carmen Sandiego |

Uh. Tails Vs. KOS-MOS may even be a slightly tough match for me to
clal. I'd take Tails but I wouldn't exactly expect a very comfortable
win. KOS-MOS Vs. Amy? Come on.... --- ertyu and VeghEsther are truly proof that there is much about this world we still do not understand. |

Ngamer64's lol x-stats page on his site showed me that Terra would get
almost 60% on Kerrigan (based off of the 2005 x-stats). However, KH is
right in the fact the x-stats can be flawed sometimes. Taking that into
account, I'd expect Terra to get around 54-55%. --- Luster Soldier - Pwned by Repus_Yortsed http://boards.gamefaqs.com/gfaqs/genmessage.php?board=7&topic=30445079 |

Zelda's expected to get 68.41% against KOS-MOS next round (assuming
KOS-MOS beats Amy). That seems like a lot of pressure on Aeris in Round
2. Still, considering Samus only got 69.75% on KOS-MOS in 2K3 I think
Aeris can fall a bit short and still be capable of beating Zelda. --- "Ah, a party! We haven't had one of those. It could be fun! So...what is a party?" "Well, you drink punch and eat CAKE! ...I think." |

If Shadow wasn't mainly notable for being the black, cooler Sonic, I'd say he's proof that SA is respected here. But he gets a lot of his support from just looking like Sonic. --- Commit it to memory. |

Say what you will about KOS-MOS's performance in 2005, but the fact of
the matter is that she's still around 20% on Link (21% on BL).
Honestly, I have a hard time seeing Amy Rose up there. --- Character Battle V Score - 8/8 points Current Prediction - Zelda vs. Carmen Sandiego |

I forgot that Amy wasn't really on the Genesis. Though, really, I think Sonic's 3D games are a joke on this site. Shadow as a character just has appeal. --- Zelda vs. Carmen Sandiego / Bracket: Zelda / Vote: Zelda (7/8) Tomorrow / Bracket: Terra / Vote: Terra |

It's only being taken seriously because there's so little to discuss in this bracket. KOS-MOS's floor is *probably* 60%+, but there's always that slight little possibility. --- Commit it to memory. |

Yeah, Zelda getting at least 100k votes is more or less a sure thing now.

Comments... Terra vs. Kerrigan: Kerrigan somehow looks even worse than last year, but Terra looks slightly cooler. I like the angry expression on her face. Advantage Terra. KOS-MOS vs. Amy: KOS gets exactly the same pic as last year, and Amy looks like Amy. Advantage KOS-MOS. Aeris vs. Marle: Aeris looks terribly ordinary, while Marle looks like she's about to kick som ass. Advantage Marle. Yuna vs. Roll: Ewwww. Worst pic yet. Yuna looks like she's on drugs, and Roll looks like a little girl. Why couldn't we have gotten MML Roll? Advantage: Yuna. Joanna vs. Cortana: Joanna has exactly the same facial expression as last time (literally, it's identical) but her outfit looks far better. Cortana is both ugly and invisible. I'm not sure which is worse. Advantage: Joanna. Chun Li vs. Kasumi: Chun Li continues her trend of getting incredibly awesome pics that encroach upon the other's frame. Kasumi looks more stoned than Yuna. Advantage: Chun Li. --- Pity for the guilty is treason to the innocent. |

Match X: (4) Terra Branford vs. (5) Sarah Kerrigan Contest History Terra Branford Summer 2005 Lost to Dante Sparda, 28.50% - 71.50% Ranked: 47th Sarah Kerrigan Summer 2005 Lost to Vincent Valentine, 21.00% - 79.00% Ranked: 58th Analysis: Ten matches in and this is our first match against two contest vets. Terra is the main character from Final Fantasy VI. Even though she isn’t officially considered it she’s probably the closest to that position. Kerrigan is one of the more known characters in Starcraft playing one of the most important roles in the game. Remember last year when these two characters were supposedly to have a close match with their opponents, heck I even remember some people taking both upsets and having this match. Well this year you get your match. This shouldn’t really be in question; they were in the same four-pack and Terra done better against Dante than Kerrigan did against Vincent. Final Fantasy VI and Starcraft may be really popular on GameFAQs, but the same can’t be said about their characters. Since this is a fodder vs. fodder match the percent between the two characters may be different than what the x-stats say, but I don’t see Terra losing the match. charmander6000’s Bracket: Terra Branford over Sarah Kerrigan charmander6000’s Prediction: Terra wins, 57.74% - 42.26% --- "I was trying to escape.
