Meta Knight is pretty close to Ryu right now, but it's probably due to hurt the block. --- sig |

People overestimate the board in the early vote. Stuff like
Vincent/Dante showed that there's plenty of other contest goers who
vote at the beginning as well. --- "Keep in mind that I am making this proposal out of good will. I could just as easily toss you all out and take over the ship."--KOS-MOS |

Whoa, Meta Knight is giving Ryu a fight. Heh, it seemed like a lot of people were hoping for Meta Knight to do well at L-Blocks expense, but it looks like its at Ryu's expense. Ah well, back to working on this paper. --- Currently playing: GTAIV, SSBB, MP3, Apollo Justice, FFIVDS, Dracula X |

Nothing wrong with MK's performance here - he's
pretty much a Brawl only character going up against one of the best
relative performers in this format and L-Block. Like I said, anywhere
else and he could have made some serious noise. --- turnturnturn your brain in turnturnturn your brain in |

L's lead on Meta-Knight is pretty big - a bit bigger than his 5 minute
lead on Kirby in Round 2, albeit with more votals - but he did look
like he was slipping in that last minute. We'll see, it's really been
more Ryu taking L's percentage than Meta-Knight. Meta should have a
pretty big day vote advantage, but it won't help him if he falls too
far behind. --- Mustache...and green... |
red sox 777 | Posted 9/30/2008 9:09:07 PM | message detail |
L-Block always generates a surge of votes at the beginning, I think. I
feel quite good about it losing today: He fell something like 20% from
this point in last year's final. Lead over Meta-Knight stands at 238;
L's lead over Link stood at 800 or so at this time. --- Evvivan: Character Battle VII --- Score: 42/48 --- T-20 (104 way) Bracket: Crono > Amaterasu --- Vote: Crono |

Remember that the entire board is basically voting for MK. Ryu will beat Meta into the ground over night. |

Also if Dog is hurting L, then this bracket is pretty much at its whim - unless it hits WCC later on... --- turnturnturn your brain in turnturnturn your brain in |

Lieutenant Kettch | Posted 9/30/2008 9:10:08 PM | message detail |
Yeah, I don't know about L-Block here. His last few matches last year started out with him getting 56%, 54% in the first 5 minutes and then dropping about 20 as the match went on. Could just have a weaker board vote now, and stay more steady throughout the match, but I wouldn't say it's over yet. |

Only 7 people fell off the top 50 today. _Viggs_,

haruo214 did not have Crono > Amaterasu as yesterday's winners. One person scord half points and survived.

L's looking weak here. It always hemorrhages
percentage throughout the day, so by no means is Meta Knight to be
counted out yet. My bracket is pleased and my Oracle prediction is sad. --- Official Queen ***** of the Universe! Biden/Obama...er, I mean Obama/Biden '08! |

Hmm, so where would you put L-Block's relative strength based on this opening? I'd say R3 L if Dog is hurting him, otherwise R2 sounds about right. --- turnturnturn your brain in turnturnturn your brain in |
