Unlike Midna, Ness has proven not to be a turd.

Uh, what? At best, Ness is a bit stronger than Midna. And Liquid >>> Kratos.

Wow, I actually was pretty confident that Pac-Man would take 2nd in this match.

Christ this contest sucks for me...I've missed quite a few characters, including some going to Round 3 and have gotten a lot of them out of order. This is not a good contest for me at all....

...What? Midna losing to Scorpion means by 2k6 stats, she's not even double the strength of Tingle (I remember this being discussed during her match). Do you not think Ness would own Tingle?

HaRRicH | Posted 9/12/2007 9:13:18 PM | message detail
I wouldn't take this as pro-Liquid yet...Revolver's done well and this format is probably a small favor to MGS characters, but I'm not giving the whole gang such credit yet. If BB keeps this up, that'd be nice...but right now I don't think this is MGS-wide.

Maybe it will be, and it certainly doesn't hurt his case. I just think jumping the gun on him isn't necessary right now. If BB stays over 25%, then certainly that means great things for Liquid...but I think we need to let this match go much longer than ten minutes before we even try to decide how this affects Liquid.

Yeah it's not like Ness ever got the same amount as Scorpion on a common opponent or anything. The reason many of us picked Midna is that it was hard to fathom her being weaker than Ness...but that is pretty clearly the case.

At best, Ness is a bit stronger than Midna.

The last time we had anything resembling a good read on Ness was in 2004 when he performed about the same as Scorpion on Auron. That makes him a pretty solid midcarder. This was pre-2005, so before the Nintendo Boost. Now, expect him to be even stronger.

I have zero confidence in Ness in this format. He may be Nintendo, but that means nothing when it comes to being a favorite of people's in a such a varied fourpack (Square/CV/MGS/Nintendo). The hardcore fans of Ness are mostly in the Earthbound crowd, and I don't feel threatened by them.


The Square character is Zidane so he has zero impact on anything. You really think the main Nintendo fanbase here will vote for Alucard or Liquid over a Smash Bros character who is decently well liked? I can't see that happening.

The point is that being Nintendo does not guarantee a win, especially in this format. Ness perhaps has a right to be favored over Liquid - but people here have been writing him off like he has no shot in hell.

In THIS format.

Forgive me if I'll hype the MGS train a bit, NintenBoard8. :P

Whoa @ Big Boss. He's not far from the % he got against Auron alone. To get it against Mario and 2 others(fodder though they may be) is awesome. Of course he won't finish this high. But finishing with over 20% in itself is impressive

That was by far Scorpion's worst year, and I thought his dominance showed that he's above his 2004 self now. Plus there's Sub-Zero's performance to consider.

Kratos was at 20.94 on BL, and Midna beat him by a comfortable margin. That puts her around... 22%? That's about what I peg Ness at.

The Square character is Zidane so he has zero impact on anything.

Uhh, Zidane may not be quite up on the other three's level at first glance, but he's hardly trash... and there's always potential SFF from Crono to consider.

You really think the main Nintendo fanbase here will vote for Alucard or Liquid over a Smash Bros character who is decently well liked? I can't see that happening.

The Nintendo fanbase is not independent from the Square, Castlevania, and/or MGS fanbases by a longshot. This format mixes up things a lot, and the dedication of fans means a lot more to me. Ness has been SFFed *badly* in the past more than once - against strong Nintendos, sure, but I don't think he's got the loyalty he needs to pull through.

I think Alucard has his own little "hardcore fanbase". I have confidence in him finishing first.

LS second feels like the favourite in my eyes, but let's not react too quickly. I don't think Sonic is going to bomb just because Knuckles and Shadow performed below expectations, for example.

SFFed or not, the idea of Pac barely getting updates over Wander is embarrassing. You never hear his name ONCE in SotC (it's in the credits, missed by most I'd say) and that's not exactly the most recognizable picture in the world. Either Wander has some of the most hardcore fans this site has seen, or Pac has virtually ZERO hardcore fans...
