I would've expected Knuckles to do better than Zelda with the initial board vote. Does this look bad for Knuckles?

Though I do have Zelda in my bracket, I gotta root for Knuckles....

Of course, Bowser started off looking bad too, but still, this isn't the best of signs for my pick of him advancing over Vincent/Samus.

3 years later and you people still don't get it.

Mario won't "hurt" Knuckle's day vote any more than he hurt's his night vote, and his afternoon vote etc.

If you put Sonic, Crono and Master Chief in a poll, Sonic and Chief won't hurt eachother's day votes. They'll both gain tremendously on Crono.


didn't you say earlier that geno hurt phoenix's opening vote? pretty sure i remember seeing that.

If Mario doesn't shape up, then this is the best Nintendo Decrease argument yet. As KH said, Mario is Nintendo; he rises and falls as Nintendo's popularity does.

Remember who you're speaking to - I am a prize winner and I am in the top 1% percentile as of now. I have more points than everyone in the stats topic. I have the wherewithal to ascertain trends based on the first 30 minutes. Bowser will not, and cannot hit 45%. Sorry.

If you put Sonic, Crono and Master Chief in a poll, Sonic and Chief won't hurt eachother's day votes. They'll both gain tremendously on Crono.

Crono would probably win that poll though... Sonic characters just seem to suck when put against more than one people.the sonic fanbase just doesn't seem to be very trustworthy...hell,Shadow and Knuckles are the most popular characters besides sonic himself in the sonic fanbase,yet look what's happening to both of them...

between a possible Crono boost and this,i'd certainly take Crono if that poll ever happened (unless the fourth character was Magus or something like that >_>)
smitelf | Posted 9/23/2008 9:13:09 PM | message detail
Mario's performance here is puzzling. He won't be able to gain as much in the day as Bowser did with this caliber of competition, but he should still hit mid-40s. Even that is pretty disappointing for the plumber, though, LFF or not.

Mario can't be leeched because the votes would go to... Fei. and it's not like Fei's crushing everyone here.

Mario's just failing at SFFing someone from a more popular series. ain't no thing.

I definitely buy Mario being hurt a bit by Zelda, the LoZ series should draw more than the Mario series. And Knuckles is just a badass, whereas Mario isn't.

How is Mario doing so badly, exactly? I've got him for 42% in the oracle, and he'll likely get to that by the end of the match.

Eh, I had a feeling Zelda would hold up very well. Ganondorf got his ass kicked against Link as well, but he'd still hold his own very well against Mario. Zelda sits on the Nintendo throne, after all.

X>Mario relies heavily on Luigi advancing (and Bowser, but Luigi is more important). If Luigi doesn't advance...

Of course, Mario weakening helps.

Yeah, I think the fact that there's three-way LFF here limits the damage somewhat. After all, there's only so much %age a character as weak as Fei can absorb. So that could explain Mario's poor performance and Zelda/Knuckles having relatively high percentages.
