I don't know why people thought Squall had a realistic shot in this
match. I mean, Snake made Soma Cruz look like ****ing fodder! That
should be proof enough that he gained tremendously since last year! And don't even bother with bringing up the fact that Soma was untested. He should be as strong as Alucard or very close to him. He was in the second two greatest Castlevania titles ever (arguably, as many say DoS > SotN). --- - Why the hell did I bet against a character as deep, awesome and badass as Lara Croft, instead favouring a character from something as lame as HL2?

Poor Leon, though. He turned out to be right all along about Snake/Squall SFF, and I bet he couldn't have been less happy. --- *kills self* Commit it to memory. |

62% at the first freeze. I doubt many people were expecting that. It'll be interesting to see how the rest of the match goes in terms of trends. I can see Squall bringing it down significantly.

Boo hoo hoo. I took Squall, but you don't see me crying my little eyes out. Just take your poison like a man. Actually, I have Snake in my bracket and figured he'd win easily.

I don't know why people thought Squall had a realistic shot in this
match. I mean, Snake made Soma Cruz look like ****ing fodder! Unless snake magically became stronger then base link, Soma cruz is fodder, and not even high level fodder at that.

"You know who would be doing better than this? Ganon." Only because he'd evade SFF. Squall would beat Ganon in a direct match today, tomorrow, and everyday until TP comes out.

So... what do both characters look like in terms of best vote times? Squall is decent in the day, Snake is abysmal. Squall should bring this down a lot. Though the thing is...Snake didn't drop very much, if at all against Soma. Who, while Castlevania, is an exclusively GBA/DS CV character. That was very odd indeed, and I wonder... --- *kills self* Commit it to memory. |

Read my next message Leon. This has all to do with Snake trouncing Soma and nothing to do with Squall.

And don't even bother with bringing up the fact that Soma was

was in the second two greatest Castlevania titles ever (arguably, as

Don't draw too much from this match, people. This is not indicative of Snake's true strength. But either way, if Snake was going to win this match, I suppose I'd rather it be in a manner where it doesn't look like he's going to lose to Mega Man again. --- Some stories can't be told by words.

Oh, and I still take Squall over every non-Noble. Make no mistake
about that, he's going to snake-bite a ton of folks next time around. Maybe if he's up against someone not named Vincent, Ganon, and Zelda.

..And here comes the drop after the board/bracket/hardcore/whatever you
want to call it that obviously exists vote. Squall won't finish looking
nearly this pathetic, and will probably look fairly respectable by the
end of this, but I'm sure that won't stop people from laughing at his
performance due to expectations that exceeded his abilities by a lot. --- When D... I'd be able to finish this sig if Z1mZum didn't own me so hard in the guru contest. Congrats on your victory! |
