I'm actually really starting to regret not sticking with Bowser > Mewtwo in that first round match. I have a gut feeling that Mewtwo is going to be *really* strong.

Vaan is the reason not a lot of people considered Rikku here. This is going to be far from the first time some one is getting screwed because of the 4th character.

Megaman SFF'ing Yoshi is already set on stone. Don't worry. History doesn't lie :)

I don't know how reliable that match is anymore, but I'm still pretty sure Knuckles outlasts Yoshi with Mega Man in the poll.

Two weak Nintendo characters. There won't be much stealing from Bowser there, I don't think.

Good to see I was on the money with the Square/not-Square splits.

And it will be interesting to see what Balthier can do when his time comes.

On the other end of the spectrum, I'm glad that I have Samus outlasting Mega Man and Luigi outperforming Chief and Ganondorf.

Hooray for practically baseless ramblings!

If anything else, if the Nintendo Power Hour is still the trend this year and Yoshi is getting a lot of LUE support during the opening minutes, he may drop and make this match somewhat respectable.

And for those of us with Mega > Knux in Round 2, we can hope Mega makes Yoshi his Vaan.

Jesus Christ, Vaan. Stick up for yourself a bit, kid. You're a FF lead.

Vaan's too busy looking pretty and posing and daydreaming. Either that, or the people who would vote for Vaan look a bit to the left and see a FF chick wearing barely anything, and instead vote for her.

Vaan is getting hurt by Rikku for sure, but nobody likes him either. This is no surprise.

Yoshi is doing a little better than I expected, but I think he'll continue to dip lower as the match goes on.

my upset of Balthier>Dante is looking pretty idiotic now though....Although Rikku is looking pretty strong so Yuna>MC doesn't look THAT bad anymore.

As somebody with Mega > Knuckles next round...if Vaan wasn't in this match, Rikku would likely be in second right now. The day-vote is going to have to be kind to Knuckles to inspire faith in a third round appearance.

Mega making Yoshi his Vaan makes no sense. I don't care what he has done to Yoshi and Luigi in the past. Vaan is gonna be looking like Tanner if he keeps this pace up.
