Contest Stats and Discussion - Part 408

MyWorldIsZelda | Posted 10/27/2006 9:22:15 PM | message detail
I wouldn't really even think about Crono increasing here so much as I would just blame it all on Bowser. The whole Bowser = Luigi = Yoshi thing is pretty much truth as it's going now, Bowser was overrated a good deal (Thanks, Snake!), and Leon boosted a bit from the PS2 release of RE4.

....But I cannot explain Mega Man/Ryu.


And just because it was so debated before, Ganon is expected to get 55%+ on Bowser right now.

After his match with Dante, Yoshi will do respectable against Snake

Oh, and this also makes Leon look a lot less impressive. In fact, he only boosts half a percent if Bowser = Luigi 2005.

TuRtLe's Bold Round 3 Predictions!

Rikku bombs against Samus, adding to the Dream Division = overrated fire

Peach manages to do decently on Tifa

Zelda destroys Aeris starting the Zelda > Samus upset bandwagon

Yuna beats Chun-Li comfortably putting the Zelda > Samus bandwagon on hold

Yoshi outdoes Squall by a good margin on Solid ****, but Snake still manages to look good stats-wise

Mega Man massively underperforms on Sora, starting the Snake > MM bandwagon again

Luigi manages to pull a Shadow on Sonic and confusingly outdo Tifa's 2k5 performance <_<

Crono absolutely crushes Auron making Master Chief the likely ultimate loser, both stats wise and bracket-wise.

I would think so too. I figured Bowser was overrated, but not by that much.

And really, Crono's going to start taking off with the night vote soon...

We still need to see what Mega Man does against Sora, but a lot of things come together with Bowser being overrated. Pretty crazy how it all falls into place, but yeah...

Yuna impressing would imply that Samus was indeed underrated last year. Although the only people who will make that connection probably know Zelda has no chance anyways

...Or Chun-Li was overrated last year thanks to Bowser, which explains the performance against Lara Croft and then your prediction of Yuna winning comfortably.

Hey, I was busy doing crap all day before going to work tonight, all on 4 hours of sleep thanks to a lame physics assignment.

And since this match is looking pretty boring, I think I'll crash.
