Nice 106 vote gain by Kratos. Geez, by next update, DK will be closer to Marth than Kratos.

nice to see Kratos kicking ass and taking names here. can't wait to see what he does in the daytime. I'd expect lots of 40% updates.

why did i take Kirby > Kratos in round 4? I have Kratos > Kirby in the 3rd, and I've always supported Kratos > Kirby in a 1v1 match if it were to have happened this year. augh

I'd say "there's no way DK loses a lead like this"...but L-Block's taught me a thing or two about epic collapses.

(*shakes his head* Closest I've ever come to abject fanboyism....)

Marth seems pretty worthy here, though. I think I'd take Marth over Ness at this point. I'd definitely take him over Captain Falcon at least.

Captain Falcon's quite a bit stronger than he looked against Fox though, he almost certainly got SFFed substantially there.

Though I'd probably take Marth>CF.

Don't worry guys DK has a chance at choking next round.

Holy crap Kratos has a terrible board vote. It would've been awesome if he were in Kirby's place yesterday...L-Block would've been absolutely destroying him for a while.

Lopen | Posted 9/27/2007 9:24:28 PM | message detail
Facing two Ninties I'm not sure he goes up with the day vote that much at all. I don't expect many shifts in this one.

I mean yeah, he won the day vote in a big way from Alucard and Ryu, but it's not like he's X-Box. Dante's day vote is nothing special after all.

Why would Kratos have a better day vote than Dante? Or GTA characters?

And why the hell would he have a better day vote than Marth? PoaC and DK, yeah...but there's no way he beats Marth with the day vote.

What I'm saying is Kratos is closer to a Dante than a Master Chief or a Marcus Fenix in terms of fanbase. And Marth has pretty nice casual appeal, I think, and he's Nintendo. I put my money on Marth to make any significant % moves during the day.

Kratos doesn't need to be related to Xbox to have a dominate day vote; I'd expect him to have a very similar type of day vote regardless. DK and Marth may be from Nintendo, but they just don't have anywhere near the type of appeal. Kratos should be one of the more dominate day vote characters we've got, especially after getting GoW2.

---

creativename | Posted 9/27/2007 9:29:01 PM | message detail
I wouldn't be surprised if Marth went up more in the day actually.

Largely because I think Kratos should have a better overnight vote than Marth.

Kratos will crush in the day here. No one will even stand a chance of taking that domination away from him. There's a galaxy of difference between something relatively hardcore and niche like DMC and the ultra-casual uber-appeal of God of War.

Samus 2K5 is horribly underrated, and is indirectly stronger than Mario. KHF sucks and never existed either, much like my package.

Erm...how can you say that Kratos > Marth with the day vote? Seriously now, Smash is as good as Xbox or KH with the day vote. Remember Master Hand?

I'd expect Kratos to rock Dante during the day, personally. I may be wrong (we'll find out soon enough), but I'd place him much closer to a Master Chief or Sora before I would a Dante. He seems like that type of guy, but we'll see.

Me too. I don't know about "rock", but I think he'd win the day comfortably there.

Marth is most likely going to cause some damage in the day...not that he'll upset DK, but DK better keep building considering his history to flush away his day-vote potential and knowing SSBM's general tendencies.

I have to agree with HM here, Kratos definitely seems like more of a Master Chief/Marcus Fenix type character than Dante-like. Actually, I'd expect him to be exactly like Fenix, a great day vote, but a night vote that isn't too bad.

Why is Kratos going to win the day vote? How about the fact that he outdid Sora with the day vote against Alucard back in 2005? Reason enough for you? >_>

Of course you think he'd do well. Dark Horses always get great day votes, right?
