Contest Stats and Discussion - Part 401

If Yoshi's afterschool vote isn't a lot better than Peach's, he may end up in danger.

Dante's night vote isn't as great as Jill's, but his day vote is better. It should balance itself out.

At least Yoshi will have a realiable x-stat value, assuming he wins, or Snake doesn't "weird MGS/Playstation SFF" Dante

Just giving Yoshi the proportion he had with Luigi in 2004 with Luigi 2k5 gives Yoshi a comfortable win...this doesn't prove it by any stretch of the imagination, but I always thought there was something weird with Luigi > Yoshi...I just had given up on the opposite being true by now.

Jill was stalling Peach at this point of the match with Peach. If Yoshi holds tough during the night, Dante will actually have to win the day vote to win. Good luck.

Regardless, Dante is gone if he doesn't make a move damn fast. And given his history of being consistent in every match, he may already be gone.

Riku v. Ryu Hayabusa was never in doubt, unless you thought Dante was just going to obliterate Yoshi.

Riku/Dante may be the match to watch if this keeps up.

Whoa. Even though I'm a Dante fan, I'm still really glad Yoshi's winning here regardless of what my bracket says. If he holds on (looking like he will), we'll have our clearest read on the dino, and a pretty good read on everyone in his fourpack. Dante would have completely ruined that against Snake.

Character Battle V Score - 45/50 points
Current Prediction - Yoshi vs. Dante
Karma Hunter | Posted 10/22/2006 9:50:10 PM | message detail
For all the people that clamor saying that the sprite round makes such a significant difference for Snake, it won't be a good read. If it's Snake/Yoshi, Yoshi will be overrated. If it's Snake/Mega Man, Snake (and thus Yoshi) will be underrated. We'd either need the sprite round in the Final Four, or for Snake to beat Mega Man in the sprite round (which would presumably overrate...Mega Man).

This match was an easy pick for me, Yoshi.

However, Luigi totally jacked my bracket! Although sadly, it was another instance where I had Luigi winning but then changed it to Zero after reading several posts on Board 8... DAMN!

Although I picked Sub Zero to beat MC, so even though I'm not winning this contest, I win at life.

Because of course you know how strong Tingle is, right?

If freaking Nidoran F can do what I saw her do to Samus, Tingle doesn't get a cap on his strength.
