Squall isn't impressing me too much here - Yoshi is the one that stands out. bad performance.

I thought Yoshi's performance here is kinda expected? He should go up around 3-4 percents during the ASV while CATS is falling (unless he isn't falling <_<)

Also, I'm not really worried about Yoshi advancing to the quarter at the moment because it's known that Yoshi couldn't lay a beatdown against a nobody (76-24 on Ryo Hazuki; 73-27 on Laharl) but can beat heavy-duty characters like Dante/Luigi, so this points out that his fans may not be numerous, but they are quite loyal (of course except when he's squaring against a more popular nintendo character like Link/Mario/Samus/MM). And then there are those Mario characters polls...

The point is Cloud will be in that match, and he will take about half of the votes, so the second place won't need a very high percentages to advance. Squall is getting SFF'd by Cloud hard, Yoshi has loyal fans, Mewtwo lost to Bowser that was SFF'd by Toad, so Yoshi is the clear choice there.

In fact, I'm more concerned about Yoshi in Round 2, than in Round 3. Hopefully Squall is going to kill Sora...

If there's any Nintendo character who I've wanted to see fail, it's Yoshi. This is a great performance from Squall, Nintendo looks more suspect and I will return dap on yo for BB > Kirby

CATS is likely not to drop as much as last year, as he was facing the king of the everything-after-the-first-hour vote - sephiroth. maybe finishes above 16%.

Nah, CATS went pretty stable after about 15 minutes. I don't think he's going to go much lower than this. He'll gain with the night, drop with the day.

CATS really doesn't have joke character trends. He gets the board vote but that's it. Also would people quit calling CATS static because that bugs me. I used to say it too, but it's completely wrong. CATS percentage has been all over the place.

yeah, I'm not expecting all that much. Yoshi's got percentage to give to Squall still, and Squall's got about as good of a day vote as Yoshi.

This is about what I expected to see in this one -- a good 10% gap. Given how Nintendo's performed up until this point, it shouldn't come as that big a surprise, I don't think. CATS is the one I'm most surprised by in this one.

Get out of here.

No one is going to vote for a mount. Yoshi is a TALKING mount.

Nathan Drake would win, at least he has fans, as few as they are in number.

You are manually realizing that...Yoshi is failing to double CATS.

CATS is pulling 74% of the Drake/CATS votes.

CATS at one point was pulling 93.55% of the CATS/Drake votes.

I MIGHT consider taking Epona over Drake 1v1.

In a 4 way though with Epona getting none of the ambivalent votes? She'd be the next Agent J.

CATS didn't gain in the night against freaking SONIC. He's dropping from start to finish, it's just a question of how fast.

Agent J was triple-SFF'd dammit! It's obvious! Hell, people were even saying on this very board that "I'd vote for him if Edgey weren't in the match :("

Yeah, he's still ridiculously weak and fodder-iffic, but he's not Jade.
