What percentage would you give to the idea of Yuna beating Master Chief for 1st place?

I figure both of them get over 30%. I think Yuna needs about 35% to beat the Chief - Vercetti probably won't fare nearly as well, and PaRappa is, as they say in the trade, "lol"

Alright, maybe if Master Chief gets 1st tomorrow I'll finally be on the leaderboard.

Neither can I, so let's give her 35%. I can't see her going higher than that.

PaRappa the Rapper. I'm tempted to vote for him as I don't even really like Yuna and Master Chief.

I'd give Yuna a 60% chance for first there. Don't think MC will have enough, pre-Halo 3, and especially not with Vercetti there.
swirIdude | Posted 9/20/2007 1:04:42 PM | message detail
Oh man, PaRappa. This changes everything.

You can't tell me you had high hopes for Vergil? I mean, Dante is badass and all, but Vergil is kind of a generic villain.

Sephy gets anti-voted because he's awesome and I'm comparing Vergil to Sephy so of course it doesn't make sense.

Actually, Anti-Votes are really just a myth fabricated by the Patriots last I checked.

Actually, I didn't have that high of hopes for Vergil, I was just hoping he'd be a midcarder.

I predicted Vergil high, but I was more thinking Ganondorf would flop in this format. Take 10% away from Ganondorf and give it to Vergil, now that's a good match.

And I still say Ganondorf has it in him to flop, he just needs to go up against opponents that aren't weak. Watch out for round 3, that one might be a doozy for him.

Considering Vince and Zelda were supposed to have a close match by the stats I don't see how you can't call that Zelda flopping. It wasn't just a clear victory... he flat out dominated her.

Well we know how reliable the stats are. I guess all I'm saying is I expected domination from Vincent, even though for whatever dumb reason I had Zelda > Vincent in my bracket(Still can't figure that out)

Tomorrow's match is very important in determining the strengths of MC and Yuna and potentially how far each an go. It will also prove if our theory on MC doing well in this format was correct.

Considering Vince and Zelda were supposed to have a close match by the stats I don't see how you can't call that Zelda flopping. It wasn't just a clear victory... he flat out dominated her.

But was that Zelda flopping or was it Vincent impressing? After the impressive performance of Auron, a character with a similarly hardcore fanbase, I'm more tempted to believe in the latter.
---
Rapid analysis, accurate judgment, and superb powers of concentration. That is all we need.
HeroicTronBonne | Posted 9/20/2007 3:35:59 PM | message detail
It was definitely more along the lines of Vincent being a beast than anything.

If Zelda can't compete with hardcore fanbases she might as well be flopping in this format, since most of the elites she's around statwise have them to some extent.
