Contest Stats and Discussion - Part 505

Remember Moltar, Sora is like Master Chief in that he loses a lot of strength in antivotes. I have a feeling he's going to turn heads tomorrow. His fourpack is almost as weak as Dante's, and I think Sora/Dante would be a good match.

Seriously, don't mess with anyone who can get 57% on Snake. That's more than Samus got.

Once again, Squall got 57% on Solid Snake last year.

Mega Man and Sonic both managed 55%.


Huh, so Snake didn't win the male division last year.

Turtle, what gave you the idea Pikachu would beat Tidus? The same Tidus that everyone else and their stats picked to beat him?

It is simply a hunch. I have a feeling KH2 and the upcoming KH releases are going to push Sora above Vincent and perhaps even MM and Snoic.

There is a large chance I am wrong. But again, where better to discuss a hunch than this topic.

Question: if this was 2k3, how would a Squall/Aeris/Sora match go?


We already know that Sora got doubled by Aeris head-to-head that year, and 2k4 suggests Sora was equal to her. It's also obvious that Squall would have hurt Sora some more, though I don't think Squall could have taken a LOT more from Sora-fans who preferred him over Aeris already...not to mention that Aeris was statistically higher than Squall that year anyway (attribute that to Samus if you wish) Would 20%-25% be reasonable for Sora in this three-way for 2k3?

[Psst, this is the part where I relate it to the next round with shaky stuff with no definitive theory. Take this as you will.]

Regardless, whatever number Sora lands at in 2k3 with those two against her...that gets to go up since KH:CoM got him some handheld-exposure (2k5 never reliably showed us what it did) and KH2 was not only rather popular but also made Sora a much more likable character in his own series. This increase in numbers for him will most likely be at Aeris's expense, since Squall is well-liked in the series as well. Aeris also didn't look like she did in 2k2/3 last year either, and I doubt FF:AC helps her much in this new SFF-fest...

...and according to today's match, head-to-head, Aeris would get at least 25.5% while Squall would get at least 35%.; if you try to jump the gun (not recommended), Aeris gets about 42% on him. Sora would take a substantial amount of that if he could get 20%-25% in 2k3, and it'd be worth mentioning that Aeris would be the only non-lead FF character of the three. That puts her in a rather difficult position, though with these three together it could really go crazy.

Then throw in Lara.



Just figured I'd throw some jibber-jabber out there and see if anybody wants to/can make anything of it.
