49.5% on Yoshi 43.5% on Ammy/Ada/Balthier RE4 RE2 RE series Dante head-to-head Dante tomorrow --- Samus 2K5 is horribly underrated, and is indirectly stronger than Mario. KHF sucks and never existed either, much like my package. |

Oh my gawd MC looking to have his best hour yet! EEEE! Go for 36%, young man! I guess it's because Ganondorf and Luigi are relatively worse with the second night vote vs the ASV...? I figured one of the ones in the middle of the after school block would be his best hour. --- "GUYS I JUST DRANK A MASTER CHIEF SODA, MASTER CHIEF FOR 2007!" - Swirldude |

Match LIV: Dante vs Amaterasu vs Leon Kennedy vs Pikachu Past Matches Round 2 Dante - 43.41% Amaterasu - 20.83% Ada Wong - 19.41% Balthier Bunansa - 16.35% Leon Kennedy - 33.31% Pikachu - 24.14% Vivi Ornitier - 21.73% Tidus - 20.82% Analysis Last round we saw Dante being unchallenged by fodder characters and is showing to be as strong as last year, while Amaterasu needed the day vote to pull one of the biggest upsets so far in the contest, prediction-wise. Leon safely won over his competition while Pikachu walked all over Vivi and Tidus as they SFF each other. Dante should take first in this match and while he hasn’t impressed me so far he hasn’t disappointed me either. His only competition here is Leon and really RE4 Wii can only do so much for your strength. Personally I think this match is more of whether Dante has the power to beat Luigi or upset Master Chief. While I don’t believe Leon has a chance at beating Dante he could come dangerously close to her. In round one Leon vs Vivi was suppose to be a close match yet Leon was able to win it rather easily. If that was mostly Leon going up because of the new RE4 game that would put him fairly close to Dante and if Dante was overrated last year because of Snake/Yoshi he could take the upset. So he does have a chance though almost every factor would have to go his way. Pikachu will take third; he’s a lot stronger than Amaterasu and a lot weaker than Leon as seen by last round. It is nice to see a Pokemon in round three and to have seen them rebound since the early days, but the series just isn’t ready to take on the big boys. Had Ada won rather than Amaterasu this would have been more of an interesting match and if Pikachu came in second I’d probably call him the luckiest character of the bracket along with Ryu. Amaterasu will come in last. She was the underdog in both of her round one and two matches, but all four (indirectly six) of the characters she beaten are considered fodder and if she somehow managed to score above 10% in this match I would be very surprised. Also despite her getting to round three I think she has the least chance at returning next year. Dante will take first and Leon will take second and if it wasn’t for the Sephiroth/Mario/BB/Fox match I’d consider this match to be the least hyped match. However unlike that match Leon does have a chance for upset though I wouldn’t count on it. charmander6000’s Bracket: Dante > Leon Kennedy charmander6000's Prediction: Dante - 38.25%, Leon Kennedy - 29.76%, Pikachu - 22.36%, Amaterasu - 9.63% --- The Board 8 BOP - http://www.freewebs.com/charmander6000/CB6%20BOP.xls Match 53: Ganondorf > Master Chief Points: 221/320 |

The funny thing is that if you cut out Ganondorf and Luigi, Master
Chief goes from getting 53% of the MC/Yuna votes at 5 AM to nearly 74%
in the last hour --- This story is not an end yet. Because only you are in the infinity loop. |

I would imagine that the recency of Halo 3 is what's been giving Master
Chief such late peaks. While he's getting boosts from the normal day
votes, people are probably more likely to start playing games around
evening time, so he's been peaking around that time this year. --- "Look out-- It's Liquids and Gases!" |

If Dante and Leon share a fanbase, I'm taking Leon for certain. RE4
trumps any two DMC games you throw at it, and I'd take RE2 to compete
with any DMC game as well. We know the RE series is the favorite Capcom
series here and smokes DMC's series, and there had been talk earlier
about how many DMC fans were RE fans first until its then-exclusive
move to Nintendo...and now that RE's back and stronger than ever for
PlayStation fans while having a strong new fanbase in Nintendo's camp,
that sounds to me like Dante could collapse if this is a
SFF-situation... ...though that's all game/series-talk; characters are obviously different. That said, Leon's the big fan-favorite in the RE series and if anybody from it is going to compete with and tackle Dante, it's Leon. Dante better hope this isn't an SFF-match (and I don't think it is). --- PETITION: a "Contest Suggestions" board.

Division 6: Round 3 - Match 54 – Dante vs. Amaterasu vs. Leon Kennedy vs. Pikachu Moltar’s Analysis Dante Round 1 – 49.19% vs. Amaterasu, Little Mac and Matt Round 2 – 43.41% vs. Amaterasu, Ada and Balthier Dante keeps on chugging. Ammy Round 1 – 22.75% vs. Dante, Little Mac and Matt Round 2 – 20.83% vs. Dante, Ada and Balthier I love this site. Leon Round 1 – 40.13% vs. Vivi, Ridley and Spyro Round 2 – 33.31% vs. Pikachu, Vivi, and Tidus Leon owns some more faces. Pikachu Round 1 – 36.62% vs. Tidus, Issac and Serge Round 2 – 24.14% vs. Leon, Vivi, Tidus I hate this site. Why must such an awesome thing like Amaterasu in Round 3 be so, so tainted with Pikachu in the same match. Everything else Pokemon is out and the lone thing that remains is Pikachu? augh I wish I could just pretend the yellow rat wasn’t here So I will! Dante vs. Leon vs. Ammy. Well, as cool and awesome as Ammy is, she won’t be making a dent here (well, one that’s larger than 15% anyway). The real battle is for first between Dante and Leon. Dante’s indirectly stronger, but Leon hasn’t been looking like a slouch. Both have performed well so far, though that may be because their fourpacks were (for the most part) weaksauce. Both characters have their similiarites. Both were raised on Sony platforms, but have cool designs, both have dialogue riddled with cheese, both have guns, both have troubles with women, both have hair… What, too specific? Okay, well, the thing is. It’s likely both share a slight overlap in audience. I’m thinking that audience would swing in Dante’s favor, but it’s tough to say beforehand. Still, neither should be in trouble of falling to third. Moltar’s Bracket Says: Dante > Leon Moltar’s Prediction is: Dante: 35% - Leon: 32% - Ammy: 17% - Pikachu: 16% Ultimaterializer’s Analysis Not going to pretend to be objective. Gogo Leon and Dante! They should be strong enough to go Dante > Leon with no fear of anything else sneaking into second place, and uh... die Pikachu die? Damn you for beating Vivi. Yeah no stathead stuff to say here. Too obvious =/ Ulti's Prediction: Dante [31.00%] Leon [29.00%] Pikachu [22.00%] Amaterasu [18.00%] Yoblazer’s Analysis Well, after the last two epic days, the rest of this round (with exception to continued L-Block heroism) will seem a bit subdued and, dare I say it, boring. This match, in particular, doesn't seem particularly interesting, and any surprises it could generate would just suck ass anyway. It's a crucial match for my bracket, but eh, I'm still not excited. That's kind of strange when two of my favorite gaming badasses, Dante and Leon Kennedy, are sharing the poll, but hey, the last two days have been that amazing. As I just mentioned, Devil May Cry's Dante and Resident Evil's Leon are in this match, and they're extremely heavy favorites to move on. Dante has been in the upper midcard for years, and Leon has been impressing us old fogies since 2005. They both have legitimate strength - too much, in fact, for their opponents to keep up with. Their first lamb to the slaughter, Amaterasu, has had an exceptional year. She made it through two rounds when hardly anybody thought she had a chance at one. Shocking the board twice in two matches is a surefire way to say you've done well for yourself. However, she's still a very low midcarder at best, and that simply is not enough to contend with the two bad boys staring her down. Great contest, Amaterasu. Maybe we'll see you next year. |
| Master Moltar | Posted 10/25/2007 8:21:54 PM | message detail |
| Our fourth entrant, Pikachu, has had a similarly
spectacular contest. He surprised everyone by defeating Tidus in Round
1 and then went on to prove he was a legitimate contender by beating
both Tidus and Vivi in the second round. Like Amaterasu, though,
there's simply too large a gap in strength between him and the two
favorites. I wont dole out any compliments, you stupid rat. Go jump in
a California wildfire. So Dante and Leon advance, but who takes first? While I have a feeling that Leon's Resident Evil fanbase might be a bit more devoted and likely to stick around when facing tough competition, there's little denying that Dante is the legitimately stronger of the two. Also, while the picture isn't up yet, it's fair to assume that Leon will get a Resident Evil 2 pic for the first time ever, which probably won't help among the many fans who recognize him exclusively from RE4. It should be a respectable performance from both of them, but I think Dante takes it in the end. Dante - 32% Leon Kennedy - 30% Pikachu - 22% Amaterasu - 16% Lopen’s Analysis Dante: Eeew... what's that smell...? Leon: *sniffs underarms* NO PROBLEM, BRO! Dante: Not you... Amaterasu: Woof! *Dante spies the steaming pile* Dante: Didn't your trainer ever teach you to do that outside? Amaterasu: Woof! *rolls over* Leon: BETTER TRY A NEW TRICK NEXT TIME, 'COZ THAT ONE'S GETTING OLD. *Vergil appears* Vergil: Dante... it's time... Dante: Heh. What, you're gonna show the dog how it's done? Looking at last round, you seem to be a pro. Vergil: Silence! Observe... go, Pikachu! *hurls Pokeball* Pikachu: Pika! Pika! Dante: That's low, Vergil, even for you... bringing your English tutor into this? Vergil: Ha. Funny you should mention tutoring... it's time for a little lesson in science... behold the evolution of combat! RAICHU! *holds up a shiny yellow stone* Pikachu: Pika...? *stares at the stone quizzically* Vergil: ... *Dante taps his foot impatiently* Vergil: WHY DO YOU REFUSE TO GAIN POWER!? *splits Pikachu in two* *Amaterasu yelps and whines at that* Vergil: BE GONE! *splits Amaterasu in two* Dante: The evolution of combat is you... killing helpless animals? Gotta admit, it's a step up from losing to small animals. Leon: VERGIL, YOU'RE SMALL TIME! Vergil: Scum... *splits Leon in two* Dante: This sure is one crazy party... Yeap. So like last round, the true to life match pic is Vergil standing above three bloody carcasses. This all amounts to Vergil winning with 82%. I'm not sure where Dante comes into this, but we'll say he rSFFed Vergil's % or something. Lopen's Prediction: Dante - 36.78% Leon - 29.02% (some might say this deserved analysis... I really don't think you have a chance. Prove me wrong, I guess.) Rat - 20.12% Dog - 14.08% Karma Hunter’s Analysis One of the more hyped affairs and even fewer up-in-the-air fights for first place we get to see in this contest... let's see Leon get tested. Dante Perhaps best described as the dividing line between upper-midcarders and the near-elites, Dante has been performing with that 'on-the-line' status the whole contest, doing quiet dominations that haven't got much attention because the competition is so... meh. Now he meets fellow Capcom star from a much bigger series, and Dante is looking to prove he's still second-in-command to Mega Man... |

Amaterasu You can talk about L-Block all you want, but there's no way anything he could have done (or will do) that could fill me with the incredulity at Okami Amaterasu getting to the third round. She's dead here, but with a potentially favorable picture factor (I think it's nigh-impossible to find a bad pic of her, though Bacon will certainly be trying), she could impress again... or fall apart now that the competiton has finally been raised to the level that the round demands, excepting her... Leon Kennedy Quietly dominating performances, but ones with much more fanfare as per the Pika > Vivi upset. Leon proved he deserves to be on the cusp between upper-midcarders and near-elites. Now today's match looks to answer which side he falls on (yes I know the format doesn't actually conclusively determine anything, let me hype stuff jeez). Pikachu Arguably the weakest Poke in this contest, the only one to make it to the third round. Thanks to Pokemon surging and Vivi being restrained by the always troublesome Tidus (I still <3 you Blitz Ace), he's only just a *few* lightyears less surprising than Amaterasu being here. Barring stupid shenanigans which I won't go into (bad Pikachu bad), this is exclusively a two-way battle between Dante and Leon. Amaterasu's 'drain' on either should be negligible, so I'll focus just on them. Superficially, Dante's the tested competitor, and has more impressive performances to his name. He's had trouble getting over the hump in his debated matches (Ryu, Vincent, Yoshi), but there's no denying he's been doing progressively better each year, now up to a standard that very few characters can match. Leon, on the other hand, got his start in 2005 - and while he had a perceived slip-up against Gordon Freeman initially, he went on to perform admirably against Mega Man and later Bowser in 2006. His dominating performances have cemented his status as contender in this match, and thankfully for him Ada wasn't quite able to make the party and screw him over here. As for outside factors? Leon's got RE4: Wii Edition, which while normally not much (it's a port of a port that isn't selling THAT well), the fact that it's for the Wii and sets him apart even more from Dante can do nothing but help. There's also the little fact that Dante's statistical readings in the past have been somewhat flimsy - the Devil Division's question has never been quite conclusively answered, at least for me, and more starkly is the fact that he's one of the most obviously overrated characters in the contest from last year thanks to Snake/Yoshi. However, I don't think that Dante's favorite status can be denied. I questioned Leon's earlier, but he seems to have a really devoted following as well. This should be a close one, and it should come down to intangibles... and unfortunately, 99 times out of 100, I think that brackets make the difference when all else fails. I like Leon more and hope that he can pull this out, but I'm feeling Dante pulls out his first debated match of his career today. Karma Hunter's Vote: Leon Kennedy OH GOD NOT AGAIN Karma Hunter's Krazy Prediction: Dante with 32%, Leon Kennedy with 31.5%, Pikachu with 21%, Amaterasu with 15.5% who wins the day vote Upset Probability: 45% Leon is certainly legit no matter what happens here, and he may impress above and beyond even what his supporters expect out of him. Dante has thrived off of his character designs in lieu of truly elite games, and with the RE factor Leon could conceivably siphon away his more casual support. Or, y'know... be the indisputably stronger character. Transience’s Analysis Leon Kennedy is my dark horse to do Really Well this contest season. I believe in him more than seemingly anybody else. |

compare him to Dante and he's pretty much equal to him if not stronger.
45% on Bowser vs. 49% on Yoshi? in past years, that would have been
completely equal, but god knows what's up with Bowser lately. it's
probably a push - Bowser beat Yoshi with 55% - but we can give the edge
to Dante and it doesn't even matter. Leon has been increasing rapidly,
and we haven't even mentioned RE4 for the Wii which sold like a million
copies worldwide. it's probably in the top five Wii titles as far as
sales go, which is pretty incredible considering it's a port of a game
that is already playable on the Wii. Ada looked a little stronger this
year from it, and who knows what it could do for the main character.
Leon covers every notable system but the Xbox/360 at this point, more
than Dante can claim. Resident Evil 4 is just huge on this site, bigger than all the DMC games combined. this poll probably doesn't mean anything, but it's fairly interesting: http://www.gamefaqs.com/poll/index.html?poll=2805 I mean, it's not even close. hell, Mega Man isn't even close. RE fans are pretty hardcore, and they triple DMC fans. the only problem here is that Dante is MUCH more popular than his series, and he seems more like a fan-favourite. but with the way Leon is growing, that won't even matter soon. the only problem here is the picture, which I haven't seen yet and is going to hurt Leon a LOT. RE2 (or RE: Gaiden? eek) is going to be a problem for a guy who is the Cloud of his series. RE2 is a fraction of the popularity. Dante probably won't look good either, but at least he'll be recognizable. the pictures I've seen of RE2 Leon look a good bit different. oh well, I've defended Leon far too much to abandon him now. even if he ends up taking second here, I'll probably support him next round anyway! Resident Evil, more popular than Devil May Cry, Leon wins. transience's prediction: Leon with 33.18%, Dante with 29.99%, Pikachu with 19.94%, Amaterasu with 16.89% Guest’s Analysis - satai_delenn I can already tell. Looks like this is gonna be one hell of a party! …actually, after the debates over the MC/etc. match, this one seems so anti-climactic. All right, getting down to business here. First of all, I've been forced to write this the day before the pictures go up, thanks to homework (why won't this semester die in a fire??) so if somehow something bizarre happens like Dante gets a picture of, uh…the back of his head, or something, don't mind me. I've heard cases being made for Leon > Dante here, but I'm not entirely sure what the evidence for that is. RE4 Wii or whatever clearly isn't doing much for its representatives against Dante, if Ada is any example, and if there's any of that DMC/RE QXGJPFF stuff to be had it should be in Dante's favor. Sure, Dante's competition wasn't exactly the epitome of fierce last round, but he looked good enough against them that I anticipate his road this round to be once again paved with the bones of his opponents. (Well, let's face it, Dante looks good no matter what he's doing… >_>) As for Pikachu, you know what? I've had it with these mother****ing Pokemon in my mother****ing bracket…! </Samuel L. Jackson> I mean, nothing against Pikachu, really. I like the little dude. But come on already. Dante will be only too happy to punt him out of the arena and back to Viridian Forest where he belongs. Dante: "Sweet dreams!" Pikachu: "Piiika-piiikaaaaaa!" *ping* Wow, Dante for Brawl. What an awesome idea. |

| …anyway. The match, right. Amaterasu surprised me
twice by looking like an actual valid competitor, and congratulations
to the wolf…goddess…thing. But here's where her reign of terror stops.
Like many of the Marcus Fenixes of this contest, now that she's facing
more than one legitimately strong character, she should dry up like an
old inkwell. Dante doesn't like calligraphy, though; it's so girly. So
he'll be smashing up that inkwell right proper. Dante: "Too easy!"
Amaterasu: "Owwwooooo…." Satai's Vote: Dante Freakin' Sparda Satai's Prediction: Dante – 37.24% Amaterasu – 14.01% Leon Kennedy – 28.71% Pikachu – 20.04% Crew Consensus: Dante > Leon is the big favorite |

Less than half an hour to go with no match pic. UNACCEPTABLE --- This story is not an end yet. Because only you are in the infinity loop. |

What if Leon gets a Resident Evil Gaiden sprite? --- Hochiminh155's Trail to Victory Future winner of the Summer 2007 Contest |

I dunno RE: Gaiden seems to suffer from the ensemble cast effect in a way that makes FF6 look like LoZ --- Samus 2K5 is horribly underrated, and is indirectly stronger than Mario. KHF sucks and never existed either, much like my package. |

Oh man, if Leon gets THAT sprite, that will be VERY upsetting. Don't **** up a good match Bacon-Nation. --- PETITION: a "Contest Suggestions" board. Life-changing details below: http://boards.gamefaqs.com/gfaqs/genmessage.php?board=7&topic=35717580 |

pleased about the effects of 'dorf losing on his bracket... or very
graceful in said defeat. --- Samus 2K5 is horribly underrated, and is indirectly stronger than Mario. KHF sucks and never existed either, much like my package. |

Leon was in RE2 long before RE:G, so I wouldn't worry about that too much. --- CB6 - 226/320; Oracle - 35th http://i236.photobucket.com/albums/ff192/Afroking97/sonicwii.jpg |

...but seriously, Leon's first game was RE2. 99.9% chance he gets an RE2 polygon, or *maybe* a cutscene shot. --- Samus 2K5 is horribly underrated, and is indirectly stronger than Mario. KHF sucks and never existed either, much like my package. |

Catching up with the rest of the topic today, and I ran across this: Time .| Ganon ..| Luigi ....| Chief .....| Yuna 05:00 | 23.35% | 24.34% | 27.83% | 24.49% 20:00 | 20.63% | 22.33% | 41.62% | 15.43% I look at that and I don't just see Chief's ridiculous range. I see that almost 10% of it came at Yuna's expense. The explanation may just be Yuna's day vote sucking (relative to the other three). But if you look at Yuna and MC's other matches so far, pretty much the same thing happens - Yuna falls behind right around the time the Chief takes off. In fact, in the other matches, MC and Yuna's opponents held up just fine during the day vote - even Liquid and Alucard. I almost want to say it looks like Halo/FF SFF...but that just sounds so stupid I can't even type it with a straight face. |
