Could damage... the percentages of the match? Because Lara's already
the favorite in round 1 and has no chance in round 2, and likewise
Vercetti doesn't have a chance in round 1. Although seeing Yuna >
Vercetti when some people have MC in the finals would probably the
funniest thing ever. --- FFXII NLB - finished - 39 marks FFXII LLIENANMiNDM - Bhujerba (post-Ba'Gamnan) |

And Lara's chances in Round 2 are exceptionally slim, but it's not a
lock. When there's one character with her own boosted fanbase against
three with considerable overlap, then...*shrug* I most definitely have
Squall and Aeris but I'm not counting out Lara. --- http://boards.gamefaqs.com/gfaqs/genmessage.php?board=7&topic=34492787 Sign plz "NOT MY DAUGHTER, YOU *****!" - Molly Weasley, Deathly Hallows |

The only way I foresee Lara impressing me is if she fails to get out of
the first round. She'll be the only non-Square character in Round Two,
but she's still PS-material and she's still not loved by many. She'll
have a really hard time impressing anybody. --- PETITION: a "Contest Suggestions" board. Life-changing details below: http://boards.gamefaqs.com/gfaqs/genmessage.php?board=7&topic=35717580 |

If Revelations did as little for her as it did last year and did as bad
as it did in the GotY polls, I don't think TRA will save her. Maybe,
but I'm not betting on it. --- PETITION: a "Contest Suggestions" board. Life-changing details below: http://boards.gamefaqs.com/gfaqs/genmessage.php?board=7&topic=35717580 |

Yeah, also that. If you don't like Square, where do your votes go? Lara.

After how MC jobbed last year, it doesn't really make sense how people
aren't giving Tommy a chance against him. I mean he has beaten DK and
held up against Zero. Not the favorite for sure, but he's no slouch. All this about a Halo "dedicated fanbase" seems like trash to me. Yuna'll win, it's up to chief to take down Tommy for 2nd IMO. --- I made a promise and I'm here to keep it. Today, I put my past behind me. THIS IS WHO I AM - Shadow the Hedgehog |

Akuma is by far the best "casual" upset. you can pretty much write Lara
off there. at least Akuma has a higher ceiling at the moment since he's
an unknown. --- "where the heck does diablo get his votes from on weekends? He should be losing because christians are fresh from the church and voting against evil" -voltch |

She'll be the only non-Square character in Round Two, but she's still PS-material and she's still not loved by many. Legend was released for about 10 different systems, and Anniversary has so far been released for PSP, PS2 and PC. I don't have the exact dates, but the release for 360 (Some time in October) should be right about the same period as her second match. --- i dont like haley scarnato |

The whole FF7/FF8 thing was a mistake >_> I meant that usually
when those two meet, FF7 performs the better. Now I know that's
virtually impossible in this case, which is why I deleted it. And of course, no forgetting that Aeris once doubled Sora. If Revelations did as little for her as it did last year and did as bad as it did in the GotY polls, I don't think TRA will save her. Maybe, but I'm not betting on it. Revelations...? What the hell? That came out in, like, 1999. >_> --- http://boards.gamefaqs.com/gfaqs/genmessage.php?board=7&topic=34492787 Sign plz "NOT MY DAUGHTER, YOU *****!" - Molly Weasley, Deathly Hallows |

I don't remember its sub-title anymore, but it was the one lots of us talked about last year. After how MC jobbed last year, it doesn't really make sense how people aren't giving Tommy a chance against him. Considering MC did ~10% better against Crono than TV in 2k5 and Halo 3 is closer and closer to release, not to mention how well MC and Halo do in seeding and the Top 100 List...it makes lots of sense for this format. --- PETITION: a "Contest Suggestions" board.

Lara Croft (2006c) VS Lara Croft (2004c) Lara Croft has a strength of 24.56.

Samus is also way overrated in those X-stats. Lara at 26.77 on Samus
should be more like 21 or 22 on BL, then throw in Zelda overrated to
put her in the 20 or 21 range. --- FFXII NLB - finished - 39 marks FFXII LLIENANMiNDM - Bhujerba (post-Ba'Gamnan) |
