If the match got close, rallying/potential cheating would come to Kefka's rescue much like it did for him before against Vercetti and Frog against Axel.

Ah, you mean like right now?

Oh wait, Kefka hasn't managed to come back and actually WIN a close match he's been in yet.

It's not going to stay close though -- the match won't be within 1,000 votes again. If Kefka/Ocelot was 50-50, Kefka would benefit from hardcore support much moreso than Vercetti.

Also, Kefka has beaten Pac-Man in a close match before. I don't think it was a comeback, but you can't say he never won a close one.

I find Kefka and Ocelot practically equal and just because he lost to Pac-Man doesn't mean he'd lose to Kefka. Pac-Man could have very well gained even a tiny bit. I'd take him over Kefka now anyway..

34% on Bowser puts him on par with Chun-Li. that's good enough to be equal with Kefka if you ask me.

Hmmm. Kefka was up by about 1500 last time I checked... nice to see his day vote hasn't improved a bit.

Bleh, more yellow, and I imagine the casuals kicked my ass here. Oh well. It'll be interesting to see how many perfects got this one.

This is like a Bizzaro Contest match

Tom Nook is actually beating someone, a ToS character is getting crushed, a Square-Enix character has completely choked and XBox 360 character is well ahead in the poll.

Holy freaking crap at the vote swing. I figured Fenix would take the lead but Kefka put up a bomb of epic proportions. Pushing a 3000 vote lead in just a few hours? Oh man...

aughaughaugh WHY DID I CHANGE! THE ONLY THING THAT SOFTENS THIS BLOW IS FENIX TO ROUND 3! WHOOOO FOR A DARK HORSE THAT DIDN'T COMPLETELY DISAPPOINT ME

Marcus is already closing in at putting a 3% gap between them... by the time this is over the percentages might equate to that of a 57-43 match or something in that area. That would put fenix right around jill, making quite an interesting match in round 2. As far as kefka goes though, no way he does anything in that match with cloud there to sff him.

all of those except for the last are surprising really. First off the first two go hand in hand. ToS is terrible and Nook is almost as terrible... Kefka is probably the worst character to ever advance in a match and people(including myself) continue to put faith in him. The truth is, is that any square character pre FF7, except for I guess Crono, Frog and maybe Magus are terrible in the contests.

Kairi/Claire last year is one, where Claire had a 508 vote lead and which Kairi ended up winning by 4496 votes.

Castlevania made it to 1199 and ended up losing by 3416 to Kingdom Hearts.

Those are the only two I can think of with a huge lead that disappeared.

Looking at the poll updates for that match, it looks like kuja's biggest lead was 439.

Close enough I guess, although that comeback started really early, which is why it was such a huge turnaround by the looks of things.

Kuja never made it to 500 (412 was his max), but he lost by 5526.

Magus got up to 646 before losing by 1756 to Knuckles.
