question i have is will Cloud crush Squall enough for Yoshi to get by? Obviously. Squall's not that far ahead of Yoshi to start with, and Cloud crushed Squall when they met in 2k4. --- All the stars in the sky are waiting for you. Brawl FC: 4253-3155-6697 |

no way are luigi and bowser going through together with liquid snake in round 2. Liquid's arguably not even in MGS4, so I'm not sure how much that does for him, and Phoenix won't be draining much at all percentage-wise. --- All the stars in the sky are waiting for you. Brawl FC: 4253-3155-6697 |

What is this trash. This bracket is terrible. All I can say for now is hopefully the Duck Hunt dog and the L-Block LFF each other for an early exit. --- Prisoner number 4983-4750-0321 Nominate Raiden!: http://www.gamefaqs.com/boards/genmessage.php?board=8&topic=44772404 |

link/cloud/snake/mmx here too,man some areas are way too stacked and
others are just fodderfilled,heck some might gain l-block style
momentum the way the bracket's been set up. --- Del Boy:He who dares, wins! |

Master Moltar | Posted 8/21/2008 1:56:48 PM | message detail |
Division 1 FINALLY Shadow gets some goddamn respect. He and Link in the same fourpack, and the rest of the division is crap. aww yeah Shadow going all the way. All the Round 1 matches were pretty easy for me, but Marth/Kefka/Lucario is kind of a mess, and Altair is a bit of a wildcard. Division 2 Mario/Zelda/Knux in the same fourpack? wtf is that ****, Bowser and Luigi in other divisions too. Liquid will be interesting to see in a post-MGS4, especially with Bowser/Luigi going at it. MMX makes this division a mass Nintendo SFF-fest later on as well. --- Moltar Status: =D Brawlin' - 4339-2157-7264 |

I have L-Block getting to the finals and losing there, after getting
second in every previous round. Vincent/Crono LFF and Link/Samus/Mario
LFF get me there, or else I'd have him losing against Vincent or Crono.
Before that, his first opportunity to lose is against Crono and Ryu,
and both of them have fallen enough that I think L's static percentage
will pull him through... --- All the stars in the sky are waiting for you. Brawl FC: 4253-3155-6697 |

You know... unpredicatability is good and all, but with all the joke
characters and their potential after seeing L-Block... I just think I
simply don't care about the contest as much as others! I'm looking much more forward to a traditional 1-on-1 GAMES contest! --- Proud Supporter of Zero |

****,if Ryu/Crono don't do something with the block my bracket's ****** again. but i'm banking on an overload of joke characters to make the L joke stumble. --- Del Boy:He who dares, wins! |
Lopen | Posted 8/21/2008 2:00:27 PM | message detail |
I think L-Block has a pretty good chance of losing round 1. I'm not
joking when I say that I think the Dog might LFF him below Meta-Knight. Round 2 is also a probable exit point. Crono is strong and Ryu is pretty hard to knock down percentagewise, despite not being on the elite level... and Crono is bringing garbage with him. If he gets through those two rounds I think his oppositiion is either too weak or too stacked to lose. --- Prisoner number 4983-4750-0321 Nominate Raiden!: http://www.gamefaqs.com/boards/genmessage.php?board=8&topic=44772404 |

I've got L-Block going up to the quarterfinal, where I have Vincent>Samus. But then again, 5 minutes ago I had Kefka winning 2 matches. --- You don't stand a ghost of a chance! |
Zylo the wolf | Posted 8/21/2008 2:03:04 PM | message detail |
I suck at doing a bracket, I got X and Sonic in the finals. Why? Link VS Mario VS X ah yeah LFF. Samus VS Link VS X, aw yeah LFF. Vincent/Crono might ruin it for me. As for Sonic's case, well he did almost as good on L-Block and Snake with Squall in the poll that MC did when he faced Dante, and Squall is way stronger than Dante. Then he's up against Cloud, Seph and Snake, which I assume Cloud could hurt both Sephy (who might finish last, poor guy) and Snake. With Brawl + all the games coming out soon, I have to take this risk as a Sonic fanboy. Oh and I learned nothing from last year so I got L-Block lossing to Crono and Ryu, and Crono will beat Vincent this year ^_^ --- Ngamer64: Zylo, you're making less sense every day. EC > Me |

And yeah, I'm with MNM. There is just too much "lulz joke character"
and jobbers in this bracket. I hate Aeris but damn where's Aeris? How
the hell does ZACK get in over Aeris and Yuffie? Maybe I'm just annoyed right now. Needless to say I won't be on the leaderboard for a while because I'm going to take a while to care enough to fill out the bracket. (Plus with Sailor Jackass randomly calling me out on "cheating" he had no real proof of I'm also a bit less motivated... it could happen again this year) --- Prisoner number 4983-4750-0321 Nominate Raiden!: http://www.gamefaqs.com/boards/genmessage.php?board=8&topic=44772404 |

Division 3 Ouch, some new characters get unlucky spots here. Last fourpack is a mess though, especially now that we know Flopthier's strength. Lots of familiar opponents too with Samus, Ganondorf and Vincent. Division 4 augh @ more L-Block nonsense, and the third fourpack is a waste since all four characters have potential and two won't make it (coughnintendosffcough). Oh, and Pikachu is here too so we'll just call this division the **** off division yay. Kratos ends up jobbing to L-Block again down the line too. just augh --- Moltar Status: =D Brawlin' - 4339-2157-7264 |

I like the bracket. Plenty of new blood; it isn't strong blood, but we
didn't have much to choose from. Too many jokes, but none of them are
going to do particularly well. --- Brawl FC: 4296-2658-3681 (KP) |

The bracket ais one big mindfart impossible to predict, which is good very hard to care about, which is not good fourpacks which is very much not good 1 vs 1 is more intimate funner to predict and extrapolate and argue about now theres not much to argue because nobody knows much of anything --- B8BL Gambling Project: http://boards.gamefaqs.com/gfaqs/genmessage.php?board=8&topic=39885921 |

In terms of unpredictability and head-scratching matches, this may
be the best contest ever. But... why care when one doesn't even care
about the characters, themselves? This is kind of exactly what everyone is failing to realize. There are two things I wonder: 1. How the contestants were determined, seeing as it surely wasn't by most nominations received. 2. If there are even pictures on the internet of some of the characters that got in. --- caps |

I do find the idea of Sonic to be a potential Clinkeroth breaker in
round 4 if Seph can manage to drag Tifa (or maybe Auron is enough) with
him that long. That would be something special. --- Prisoner number 4983-4750-0321 Nominate Raiden!: http://www.gamefaqs.com/boards/genmessage.php?board=8&topic=44772404 |
