I've always believed that Ganon was significantly stronger than Zelda indirectly... the only chance Zelda had to beat him was her being the namesake of the series for people who really didn't know/were indifferent to them. I'd still take Ganon in the direct match-up, but I would never call Zelda out of it. I would however, bet my nutsack that Ganon would perform better against anyone when compared to Zelda.

While SexistsFAQs is an exaggeration, I'm honestly starting to believe females ridiculously over perform when their opponents are female as well.

There won't be any big swings here today. Dante is a pretty steady character leaning slightly to the night side of the spectrum. Arthas was pretty steady leaning slightly to the day side. I expect these 2 to be at it all day unless someone starts pulling away soon.

Was Ganon not considered an obvious favorite here or something? Or is this board just full of Ganon fanboys - oh

Vergil and Thrall >>>>>>>>>>>>> Simon Belmont

by that much? honestly,simon would probably be the underdog,but it would be a possible upset,


This is a four way format, how do we know how much Vergil and Thrall is stronger than Simon Belmont. Well if we are looking back at their past 1 vs 1 performance, i think Vergil had a better performance.

They've both gone up against the same character twice. It's currently 1-1, and Zelda performed better in the more legitimate match.

yeah, Ganon's actually decreasing here. ah well.

I think this will be back and forth until 1:30ish, when the night vote actually begins. we can't really make any judgments on this match until then, I think.

Hmm....apparently Ratchet has quite a good day vote, or at least did in 2003, as he swung over 9% against Luigi from the 15 minute mark to the end (starting with only 16%!), according to Stats Topic 2.

BlAcK TuRtLe | Posted 9/19/2007 9:28:51 PM | message detail
Granted Vergil may have benefitted from Sephy being anti-voted. But Simon's lone appearance was in 2k2, so I hardly trust him to repeat his performance on Crono 1 on 1

I think it's the % everyone is crapping their pants about (really isn't that impressive to me, given that all 3 of these characters are crap, none are going to benefit from being a joke, and we really don't know where they stand), I just thought I'd throw in my view of Ganon/Zelda since it was brought up.

I find this round to be boring. Last round was awesome because you had four weird and ridiculous characters. It made things fun.

This round is just straightforward. No fun.

You'd expect Ratchet to have a good day vote. But he'll be too far behind by the time it hits to do anything

This is a 2 horse race

Honestly after Vincent did, Ganondorfs percentage here isn't really impressive in the least. Anybody in Vincent's fourpack would blow out(55%+) anybody here.

I have a feeling we're in for a barnburner today.

Neither will have any lopsided trends. I expect them to both stay even all night and all day. Unless one starts pulling away after the NPH

Zelda > Ganon.
