I'm pleased to see Travis doing fairly well. BUT HE SHOULD BE WINNING. But man, I can't believe this match was ever in dispute. I don't want to sound arrogant, but Mewtwo>Pac-Man was really, really obvious. Mewtwo's shown to be good with SFFwith Bowser, and Ness really only has Smash. Hell, even Travis may be sucking up some cult votes from him. In other news, does this make Mewtwo a top 20 contender? Top 25? --- The below statement is the most false thing in the world. http://i113.photobucket.com/albums/n237/Danielyoon10/B8sigbet.jpg?t=1221767288 |

Top 20 for Mewtwo is really pushing it. Ness is just clearly weaker,
like many Brawl characters have been. Travis is also taking up a lot
more of the percentage than most probably thought he would. It's hard
to judge what his day vote will be as well. Top 25... perhaps. It's hard to say what the top 25 really is, if you want to include joke characters, the only one that can be there in L-Block because Cube hasn't proven to be that powerful (even though I sadly thing it is) and Sandbag's match hasn't even happened yet (but again, I think it sadly is as well). --- :> |

Hmmm Mewtwo as one of the top 25 characters.... Nah I think all these characters would beat him. 1: Zack 2: Link 3: Cloud 4: Sephiroth 5: Mario 6: Samus 7: Snake 8: Sonic 9: Mega Man 10: Crono 11: L-Block 12: Squall 13: Vincent 14: Tifa 15: Ganondorf 16: Auron 17: Ryu 18: Bowser 19: Yoshi 20: Dante 21: Zelda 22: Sora 23: Kirby 24: Zero 25: Kratos/Knuckles Now I bet a lot of you will say: Hey Zylo you forgot Masterchief, and yes I'm sure that I forgot someone, but no way that the character who lost to Sub-Zero in a 1 on 1 wins over Mewtwo. --- Ngamer64: Zylo, you're making less sense every day.

Zylo the wolf | Posted 10/11/2008 5:40:09 AM | message detail |
Yeah I totally forgot about X. And it's possible that I underestimate Mewtwo here, because I really don't like him considering how über he was in Red/Blue. Just curious, which characters on my list wouldn't you pick to win over Mewtwo? --- Ngamer64: Zylo, you're making less sense every day. The 2008 Guru contest winner > Me |

vcharon | Posted 10/11/2008 5:54:27 AM | message detail |
Zero is very questionable now after his performance. Knuckles and
Kratos would without doubt lose to Luigi. I could see Mewtwo beating
Knuckles himself. I question Zelda as well, but maybe I shouldn't. To be clear, I never said for sure that Mewtwo should be in the top 25, but I was merely saying that a few of the ones you listed probably should be either. --- :> |

I thought that I had Luigi there, the reason why I put both Kirby and Zero there was because they did a good job against Luigi. --- Ngamer64: Zylo, you're making less sense every day. The 2008 Guru contest winner > Me |

Wow, are we really doing all this speculation about Mewtwo based on him fodderizing Ness, Pac, and Travis Touchdown? The fact that Travis is over 15% should tell you how weak this pack is, but I guess if you want to. --- turnturnturn your brain in turnturnturn your brain in |

uhh smurf he's performing alot better then expected, be happy he's not bottom of the barrel fodder like he coulda been Not what I expected. He's a genuinely excellent character on the most widely owned console on the site, I was expecting a bit more from him. It's not bad like you said for his first year but here's hoping he doesn't something more next time. --- Smurf , The cream of Knuckles Fanboyism. |

Travis is a sublime character, I'm a firm believer that you could not have played NMH and not have voted for him today without having some sort of mental defect. I'm inclined to agree with this, even without having played his game... certainly he has to have a lot more personality than these other three combined, who have very scarce amounts of it. I would have voted for TT, but I bracket voted for Pac-Man. --- :> |

woooo Travis near 15%, him not flopping is like the best thing to happen in this contest so far. so awesome and man, Mewtwo crushed Ness way harder than I expected. oh well, mewtwo looks good here, and even though he just seems to be beating down low-midcarders/high-fodder, I think some of this is pretty legit (a la Fox). He'll probably look pretty decent next round as well. --- Moltar Status: augh Mewtwo/Ness/Pac-Man/Travis - Bracket: Mewtwo > Ness - Vote: Travis (73/92) |
creativename | Posted 10/11/2008 9:12:21 AM | message detail |
Hard to believe that some people are still trying to discredit Mewtwo
after his utter ass-whooping today, and his very impressive performance
last year. He's a force. I'm pretty confident Mewtwo>Fox and fairly confident Mewtwo>Knuckles 1-on-1 (Knuckles probably isn't what he used to be). 23: Kirby 24: Zero 25: Kratos/Knuckles Mewtwo vs. Kirby I think is pretty debatable too. But you can't put Kratos below Kirby IMO. Kratos is above Kirby. --- www.gamefaqscontests.com www.gamefaqscontests.com/gallery |

and this is, I believe, the first time I've ever called a Ness match right. I called it right last year! Well, I called Ness not advancing right, at least! Had Alucard > Liquid. Mewtwo vs. Kirby I think is pretty debatable too. But you can't put Kratos below Kirby IMO. Kratos is above Kirby. I disagree on both counts. I think people are selling Kirby short because of last contest. He got L-Block/DK LFF'd last year. You can't hold that against him. And if you put Kratos above Kirby, you have to give him a great shot at beating Luigi (which isn't happening, by the way). --- Squall Leonhart's Path to the CBVII Championship Round 1: 1st place, 57296 votes, 45.06% |

Cloud with the bad Power Hour, and then skyrockets his way through the rest of the match. If it weren't for that first hour, Cloud would've gotten 60% easily. Bad last two hours for Edgey though.

didn't say Mewtwo should necessarily be the favorite, but there has to
be some debate there. And also, why is Smurf saying Kratos is Travis' ceiling? Kratos is from a series thats sold over 10 million copies, and Travis' game has sold 300k... Wrong Kratos, I believe. --- www.gamefaqscontests.com www.gamefaqscontests.com/gallery |
