Same. I never gave Meta-Knight more than three seconds of thought. Yesterday's Mewtwo performance makes Mudkip look good. Today's Meta-Knight performance makes Pit look good.

WHERE IS THE PERFORMANCE THAT MAKES MY TINGLE LOOK GOOD.

*looks at Midna*

Oh. Oh ****.

they were a few topics back. TRE probably has them, if he's even bothering to archive a dozen topics a week.

no one commented on them, so I wasn't planning on doing them again, but maybe tomorrow.

At 35 minutes in Cloud had 54% of the vote. Sephy is definitely looking bad.

I know you like to hold that Sephiroth > Cloud in 2002, but I find the idea unfathomable. Cloud certainly didn't get much more, if anything from the KH games - the biggest hype-selling point on ANY character was Sephiroth's much heralded boss battle.

I couldn't POSSIBLY disagree with you more. Cloud had soooo much more reason to benefit from Kingdom Hearts it's ridiculous.

Everyone agreed at the time too. Sephiroth's role in the game was minor relative to Cloud's, who was pretty prominent. That means a lot more than an optional boss fight.

I don't even really this is as much up for debate, honestly. But it's not something we can ever know for sure, as it's the past.

When are we going to see a 3 way or 4 way close match?

If there is one, it's going to be tomorrow. 4 way SSF, even though Banjo isn't gonna stand a chance.

Really? Because if Meta Knight keeps these updates up until morning... well, how bad do you expect the disparity of the day vote to be between two Ninty characters?

Doubt it. The Kirby series isn't that popular for Meta-Knight to show this type of strength. Otherwise, Ridley should have been a lot stronger given how much more popular a series it is...

I don't understand what you're saying? I said that his strength probably had less to do his games than his relation to Kirby, and the way he looks. And Ridley's character design is crap compared to Meta Knight.

Clearly I was exaggerating when I said no one... but I'd call for Ridley's fanbase to be extremely unloyal. I expect him to go very low in his match in round 1 this year. Unless he's up against a buncha crap anyway.

Sephiroth will be fine. The difference between him and Cloud is that nobody in this match sucks as hard as Migdar Zolom.
PortugalTheMann | Posted 9/10/2007 9:43:37 PM | message detail
Who said I'm not taking him seriously? I'm just not taking him as a lock to win this match, sorry if that's what your definition of serious is. MK has every reason to do better now compared to the day. Sure he might be able to continue this and lead all day long, but I can still see Peach coming back with it.

I like Peach to do better than Meta-Knight in the day, but who knows there? gotta wait for it to have any clue. if this goes like you'd expect, and Meta-Knight does even *better* during the night vote.. it's not going to matter. I'd give CATS a better chance in that case.

If I had to choose between Jill/Ocelot/SFF'd Zolom and Peach/Meta/CATS... well, initially I would have definitely gone with the former, though I'm rethinking things now. But the disparity shouldn't be SO much to justify the difference between Cloud and Sephy right now.

Master Moltar | Posted 9/10/2007 9:45:21 PM | message detail
Eh, I can see where the argument about Meta-Knight looking cool comes from. From the Kirby games I played, it's not like Meta-Knight is a big character in them. I like him more so because of his design (and he rocks in CC). I can see why he would be voted over Peach, but I didn't think he'd get that much support over her.

Brawl may be helping here too....whoa whoa brawl hype is reel

He really is looking like crap.

Sephiroth falling from grace would make me so proud of this site.

Well, Kirby's best time against Luigi was the Board Vote...but we'll see what happens.

I know it's not looking good for Peach, but I definitely wouldn't call this match over. Luigi made his move on Kirby at around 1:30 AM and his percentage rose until around 2:00 PM.

And I have have played Kirby games a significant amount, and Meta Knight played such a minor role I didn't give him much thought.

Eh, I'm still not counting CATS out on this... and I don't think the day vote will hurt him as much as people are saying, since Sephy will be more potent in the day than he is now too, so the %s they get will be lower, which helps CATS.

Meta Knight is the type of character who thrives in the day.

Oh, good thing you have tons of evidence to back this up. Yeah, he's Nintendo, but it just makes sense that when comparing him to Peach, he would fair better at night than he would in the day against her. Regardless of whether he was in 2nd or 3rd right now, I'd expect him to only fall relative to Peach as the day hit. Sure I also thought Peach would be winning now, but this'll just make for a closer match. If MK continues to gain solid leads on Peach, he can put it out of reach, but I don't know how capable he is of that.

HM:
I understand that you don't buy into the idea of this format favoring characters with a hardcore fanbase, which is something I really don't agree with. I'm not willing to say anything about Peach/Meta-Knight in a one-on-one environment based off of this. Meta-Knight's not exactly running away with this right now.

This format certainly should definitely favor certain characters more than others - but so far the characters it favors has been quite unpredictable. Also I think SFF is by far the bigger factor.

The "hardcore" theory is where the issue is. People say "hardcore", but then they fail to definite it beforehand. How is Meta Knight more hardcore than Kefka and Frog? He isn't at all.

I agree with you that this doesn't necessarily mean Meta Knight>Peach 1 on 1.

KH:
And THIS just seems like you're trying to rationalize a pick in order to assert the format doesn't matter. In a one-on-one situation, Peach would dispatch of Meta Knight handily.

How in the world can you say this so authoritatively? That's preposterous. I agree with HM, this does not necessarily say that Meta Knight>Peach 1 on 1. I wasn't trying to say that it did, just that I would pick Meta Knight there.

Also obviously the format matters, I've gone on and on about that since the start.

And Ridley's character design is crap compared to Meta Knight.

Prime Ridley looks great, but he has no art. Super Ridley's art is absolutely terrible, and that's what he got against Diablo and what he'll likely get in his first round match.

Well, equaling Peach to Jill. (and that works perfectly) Meta Knight end ups looking like at Ocelot's level. Assuming Sephy is still close to Cloud...CATS would probably triple Zolom. >>
