Also, just to touch on what KH said: not only is Fox arguably THE
favorite of the SSB series, but he's been re-announced on the site and
Wario will most likely be in the poll with MK as well. MK will be going
solely off of his surprisingly-decent strength from the Kirby
series...it's just a matter of how much that really amounts to and how
well it holds up against two Nintendo characters instead of one. --- PETITION: a "Contest Suggestions" board. Life-changing details below: http://boards.gamefaqs.com/gfaqs/genmessage.php?board=7&topic=35717580 |

Mario/Cloud underrates him there. Totally neglibly. Cloud should've beat Mario match by like 2 points maybe. I do agree that Fox will be fine though. Fox isn't losing to Falcon there. It's just not happening. I agree, but I could definitely see Fox>Falcon. --- www.gamefaqscontests.com www.gamefaqscontests.com/gallery |

Even if Fox does beat Meta Knight this year, Meta Knight will probably
beat him handily after Brawl. Judging by how he looks to play in Brawl,
theres a new fan favorite in town. --- Demyx is better than Axel. I don't like Haley Scarnato |

Meta Knight beating out Fox is clearly in the realm of possibility however if Meta-Knight can take care of Peach. Even if we assume Peach beats Fox one-on-one, this format simply does not favor Peach while it's tailor made for someone like Meta-Knight. There's no need to get out of control and start calling for Meta-Knight to be this monster just because of him being a couple of percents ahead of Peach, especially here. He's doing a good job right now, though. Don't need to make more out of it than what it is. --- Experiment status report update: Metroid project 'Dread' is nearing the final stages of completion. |

I'm sorry, but you guys may be over estimating Fox. I can see

than anything. --- Pokemon Pearl Code: 2663-9266-2709 WWEGSB Hardcore Legend and Board 8er Masa/Hiko |

Even if a lot of people have played Kirby, does Meta Knight have that
prominent of a role in the games? I'm not trying to be smart. I haven't
played them, so I'm just asking. --- "Look out-- It's Liquids and Gases!" |

Totally neglibly. Cloud should've beat Mario match by like 2 points maybe. 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. --- delicious cats Commit it to memory. |

I think it's a lot more his close relation to Kirby, and his awesome character design. 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... --- Currently playing: Call of Duty 2, Maverick Hunter X, Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney, Dead Rising, Tomb Raider Legend |

Like I said in my writeup, MK is basically to Kirby what Protoman is to
Mega Man. Recurring boss with mysterious motives, but generally seems
to be on the good side. TuRtLe ~~~ 28/32 in the contest. Next pick: Sephiroth > Peach BlAcK TuRtLe. The cream of Zero fanboyism |

There's no need to get out of control and start calling for Meta-Knight to be this monster just because of him being a couple of percents ahead of Peach, especially here. I agree he's no monster just because he's stronger than Peach, but that's because Peach is a borderline chump. She's low midcarder. --- www.gamefaqscontests.com www.gamefaqscontests.com/gallery |

No one truly likes Ridley, though, as I
said during the villains contest. He is best known for breaking through
random walls and attacking for what the gamer determines to be no real
reason aside from a boss fight. He's not badass, he's just some random
dragon thing you fight. Meta Knight? His fights are epic, man. I would not be surprised in the slightest to see Meta Knight be stronger. --- "GUYS I JUST DRANK A MASTER CHIEF SODA, MASTER CHIEF FOR 2007!" - Swirldude |

I'd take Meta Knight over Peach 1 on 1. I don't see how this format helps him. 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. --- Experiment status report update: Metroid project 'Dread' is nearing the final stages of completion. |
BlAcK TuRtLe | Posted 9/10/2007 9:36:22 PM | message detail |
My comparison raises a good point. We need to see Protoman back in these things. I bet he would have done well for himself in this format. TuRtLe ~~~ 28/32 in the contest. Next pick: Sephiroth > Peach BlAcK TuRtLe. The cream of Zero fanboyism |
BDawg | Posted 9/10/2007 9:36:38 PM | message detail |
I don't count that as a Peach stall, just a Sephiorth beatdown. --- Should I start running now? |

I'd take Meta Knight over Peach 1 on 1. I don't see how this format helps him. 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. He's got the look, he's got the Brawl hype, but Peach has too much of the Pac-Man effect on her side to lose heads up. --- delicious cats Commit it to memory. |

Even if this is the NPH, the sight of MK > Peach > CATS thirty
minutes into the match is worrisome. It's only amplified when CATS's
poor day-vote is compared with Nintendo's consistent one. This is
brutal on CATS right now. --- PETITION: a "Contest Suggestions" board. Life-changing details below: http://boards.gamefaqs.com/gfaqs/genmessage.php?board=7&topic=35717580 |

hmm.. I can't believe that with Peach and Meta-Knight splitting votes
so effectively, that CATS isn't in a better position. maybe he'll end
up staying somewhat stable while the other two tussle for votes,
allowing him to sneak in here. I'm still kinda shocked here.. never even considered Meta-Knight. --- THE ORDER MATTERS?!?!?!?!?! now playing: Jeanne d'Arc |

Even if a lot of people have played Kirby, does Meta Knight have
that prominent of a role in the games? I'm not trying to be smart. I
haven't played them, so I'm just asking. This is purely anecdotal and meaningless, but I've played Kirby games for a grand total of 5 minutes, and would never have known Meta Knight from that series. But I voted for him here. This also might be the first time I didn't vote Sephiroth in a match he was in. Overall though, I think his games might play a role, but his character design and similarity to Kirby are more important. Also, there's the fact that he has "Knight" in his name, and everyone loves knights :) Hell, if Frog was called Frog Knight, he probably wouldn't have struggled with Axel at all! ;) --- www.gamefaqscontests.com www.gamefaqscontests.com/gallery |
