If L-Block and Kirby make it, I think the block has a great chance. If L-Block and Kratos make it, I think the block has a 99% chance.

Kratos/Kirby could be interesting here, because both have good day/ASV votes. (...ASV votes is a bit redundant, but whatever)

Kratos still getting 30% updates despite L-block's insane 1st hour support is pretty impressive. I'd say he's probably proved himself pretty well here

He'll need one hell of a collapse to go from a lead this big to third place. In addition, Kirby has two disadvantages that he didn't have last time: a character with a day vote that's as good or better (leaning towards better) than his own, and a fanbase split. L-Block definitely has a chance, and if he makes it out of here with Kratos, he'll make it out of the next round with Snake.

You're all getting too excited. L-Block isn't leaving this round.

Indeed. I didn't realize people were actually serious in thinking he could advance here. This should still come down to Kirby/Kratos, with Kratos being a substantial favorite, though not a lock.

Eh, I wouldn't say L-Block has this - Mudkip's lead over Luigi reached four digits, and he ended up losing by over 4000 votes.

L-Block's main chance is that his horrible pic last round just destroyed his strength, and he's naturally stronger than Kirby. In which case he might even be stronger than Kratos straight-up. But that's highly unlikely (though I did think this pic would help him somewhat over the other one).

L-Block is already nearing Mudkip's biggest lead over Luigi, and he's (I hereby declare that L-Block is male) not getting a few thousand "rally" votes. He's not in the clear but he's not looking half bad, either.

Well, that's different in that that was with outright cheating, this is just board favoritism. The vote totals in this match are quite normal.

Board favoritism shouldn't die down as much as cheating. Though of course, L-Block will still inevitably collapse. He just won't fall off the face of the earth completely ala Bidoof.

Which is exactly what happened to every other "joke" character...

...But I'll admit, that last update made my black heart skip a beat.

L-Block's entire first hour was about as strong as his first 30 minutes. He may get the lead to nearly 1300 by the time the first hour ends. Even then, the collapse in round 1 was gradual. It's possible that L-Block reaches a 2000 vote lead here. Now if anyone can lose a 2000 vote lead it's a joke character, but I seriously... wouldn't count him out yet

I kind of expect Kirby to own the ASV, although its not a certainty since Kratos is from 2 very recent games whereas Vivi wasnt.

L-Block seems to be a bigger drag on the Nintendo crowd than on Kratos. I thought the 6,000 versions of Tetris out there would negate the importance of the GB one.

And even assuming L-Block does collapse, Kirby's already getting a low amount of votes compared to Kratos. In order for L-Block to lose to Kirby, you have to assume a disproportionate amount of L-Block votes goes to Kirby rather than Kratos.

Which... I suppose isn't too unlikely though

Kirby is doing worse than I thought right now...he keeps dropping. Kratos' gains seem to be coming at the expense of Kirby/DK.

If Kirby actually drops overnight, or doesn't increase much, then L-Block really would have a shot here.

Well come on, just because he's gonna lose doesn't mean he doesn't deserve to be in the pic. You can't just leave him out because he has no chance.

That's a good point, Kirby might well pick up more of L-Block's votes than Kratos does.
