Match XIII: Agent J vs Bidoof vs Link vs Miles Edgeworth Information Name: Agent J Game/Series From: Elite Beat Agents Past Contests: None Wins: N/A Losses: N/A Name: Bidoof Game/Series From: Pokemon D/P Past Contests: None Wins: N/A Losses: N/A Name: Link Game/Series From: The Legend of Zelda series Past Contests: CB2k2, CB2k3, CB2k4, CB2k5, CB2k6 Wins: Little Mac (2k2), Strider (2k2), Jill Valentine (2k2), Scorpion (2k2), Sephiroth (2k2), Mario (2k2), AiAi (2k3), Fox (2k3), Magus (2k3), Samus (2k3), CATS (2k4), Ganondorf (2k4), Yoshi (2k4), Crono (2k4), Mega Man (2k4), Cloud (2k4), Cloud (2k5), Sephiroth (2k5), BR Match 1 (2k6), BR Match 2 (2k6), BR Match 3 (2k6), BR Match 4 (2k6), BR Match 5 (2k6) Losses: Cloud (2k3) Name: Miles Edgeworth Game/Series From: Phoenix Wright series Past Contests: None Wins: N/A Losses: N/A Analysis Fun fact, this is the only match of the contest to have more new comers than returnees. This doesn’t matter since the character that has been to a contest before so happens to be the most dominate character in the entire character battle history. He is so powerful that for the last two years he wasn’t in the main bracket, but a side bracket where he easily beat what is supposedly his strongest opponents. The fight for second will be interesting, the other characters deserve to come in last in almost every single four-pack yet someone here will be taking second. Link will not only be taking first, but he’ll get the highest percent of the contest. That’s what happens when you have the strongest going against three of the weakest characters. The question is how high will Link get in this match? I’ve seen some picks as low as 65% to as high as 85%. Personally even if Link is the most dominate force in the contest he is still going up against three characters with three different fanbases (though their games are all from the DS so there may be some overlap) and breaking 90% on one character is already hard to do. I see Link getting somewhere around the low 70’s. I only really see two characters being able to come in second in this poll, Miles Edgeworth and Bidoof. While Edgeworth isn’t going to be as popular as Phoenix Wright, he probably has the biggest hardcore fanbase out of the three characters. The question is how much weaker is Edgeworth compare to Phoenix. Many PW fansites are usually made for Phoenix Wright, but there is a small community that also loves Edgeworth. Bidoof is a random Pokemon you see in Diamond and Pearl, but last year we all saw Nidoran F do better than what most people expected and the fad with Bidoof extends past board 8. I don’t see Agent J doing much in this poll because out of the three games Elite Beat Agents is probably the least popular and the game itself doesn’t really focus on the characters rather they focus more of the dances. Anyway Link takes first and I have Bidoof taking second, but I see Miles taking second as well. Link will be taking a lot of the votes so the hardcore fanbase may be the deciding factor in this match. charmander6000’s Bracket: Link > Bidoof charmander6000’s Prediction: Link - 71.84%, Bidoof - 10.54%, Miles Edgeworth - 9.78%, Agent J - 7.84% --- The Board 8 BOP - http://www.freewebs.com/charmander6000/CB6%20BOP.xls Match 12: Magus > Bomberman Points: 34/44 |

Huh... so that's Agent J. He actually looked familiar, and I've barely
heard of the game (series?) he's in. I wonder if he could get third? --- FFXII NLB - finished - 39 marks FFXII LLIENANMiNDM - Bhujerba (post-Ba'Gamnan) |

So, if Bomberman "wins" and Phoenix Wright loses, I guess we'll have
records for the character who led the least amount of time and still
won and the character who led the longest and still lost. Unless I'm forgetting one... --- "I'm no hero...Never was. I'm just an old killer...hired to do some wet work." |
