4/8 points - The Great GameFAQs Character Battle VII
NP: Marth > Kefka
KamikazePotato | Posted 9/19/2008 10:18:46 PM | message detail
Alright, so I can't play the sales card.

I still think that Altair won't be that strong, simply because his game got mixed review. Look at Marcus Fenix; similar sales, rave reviews, curbstomps Kefka. Look at Niko; awesome sales, mixed reviews, loses to Kefka.

Unless you think Altair will be stronger than Marcus (which is possible, I guess, but unlikely) I don't think he places in Round 2.

geez kefka, at this rate, the only time he'll increase percentage is during the dead hours and towards the very end of the match

marth will definitely fall a bit and then own once morning hits, but i'm expecting niko to do well then too and benefit from the prolonged day vote

duke i have no idea what he's going to do. at this rate he'll be looking good throughout the whole match

Niko is staying about steady with Kefka now, during Kefkas best time. Honestly, I wouldn't be surprised if Kefka ends up last.
Karma Hunter | Posted 9/19/2008 10:21:42 PM | message detail

Um, I don't think Altair will place right now - but that's because I'm thinking the Duke will. If he doesn't, I'd bet HEAVILY on Altair doing so - with Lucario and Marth's split, I'd take anything half-decent to place with them.

Why the hell isn't Kefka following his night vote trend?

KamikazePotato | Posted 9/19/2008 10:25:23 PM | message detail
Is it weird that this match makes me lose a little faith in Zack? Just looking at Marth dominate here...I can't help but think that Wario just flat-out bombed and Zack isn't quite as strong as we think.

Of course, my thought processes are currently set to 'whatever helps Zidane', so...

You know, acting like a debated match was a sure thing all along doesn't get you much respect.

I don't really understand that reasoning. It makes more sense that based on what Marth's doing, Wario must be stronger than we even thought which means Zack is going to be like the new Vincent or something

I've got enough respect to lose some here and there.

But you know, I just don't know how some people can continually trust Kefka year after year. That's all I'm saying. In a debated match, there are two rules you should follow: Always go with Frog, and never go with Kefka. Someone should write that in stone somewhere.

And speaking of losing respect, Turtle, where are you?

It just makes me think that Wario should've done better, and that he hasn't really increased at all from last year, which makes Zack's victory look a tad worse

Just a tad; there's no downplaying an Ulti-style blowout, but still.

Honestly, I'm not sure there's all that much connection between Wario's performance and Marth's performance anyway. Wario isn't all that liked widespread for either his own games or his appearance in Brawl, while Marth has been one of the most popular Smash characters for a long time. I think lumping all the Smash characters together and trying to extrapolate one's success or failure from another isn't going to work very well unless the characters have more than just Smash in common.

Doesn't make any sense there. And doesn't make Zidane any more likely to have been able outdo what Zack did.

Soul, why are you acting like Kefka is doing terrible and had no chance? He's within 5% of the lead, and if he had gotten a better pic it might be a different story. It's not that much of a reach to think he had a chance in this match in the right circumstances.

Can someone explain how to do simple x-stat stuff? Like finding out how much a character with 28 on BL would get against someone with 21 on BL. I'm looking for it on NGamer's site and the only explanation given is really confusing.
