WarThaNemesis2 (#050)
Albion, I'm talking first place, not second.



Yeah... thats surprising?

I expected him to be first on brackets cuz of name recognition.

Can't say I'm too surprised about Lucas, though. I thought being weaker than the absurdly weak Olimar was pretty much a given.

My goodness, look at Jinjo. This is a fine performance, and it's coming from a joke entrant that has almost nothing in common with the likes of L-Block and WCC. Hope he doesn't drop too far, because this is making me feel pretty good about Sandface.

To think, BB went from almost being tripled by Auron a few years ago to beating Kirby outright.

Liquid to round 3 confirmed

Question now is, Bowser or Luigi?

Honestly that picture looks identical to Smash Snake's outfit and design... the only thing different is the eyepatch. I seriously think Brawl votes is the only way to explain this.

Jesus christ I have 79 points right now and could have easily placed tomorrow if Kirby beat BB. And to add salt to the wound, I just realized I have MC > Kirby in the division finals.

DAMN YOU KIRBY!

Hmm, I wonder if I'll fall off the top 50 after being on a day (again) for scoring half points with Big Boss raping Kirby? Then again, maybe a lot of top brackets have Kirby > Big Boss. Who knows...

pfft, you can't argue about Kirby being overrated if you've got him beating out Dante.

I, on the other hand, also have 79 points and Kirby > Big Boss, but I've got Dante so I can make fun of Kirby all I want lol kirby

Xcarvenger | Posted 10/11/2008 9:22:32 PM | message detail
this match is strikingly similar to squall/yoshi match:

Big Boss (in Snake's form) = Squall
Kirby = Yoshi
Jinjo = CATS
bad fodder = SFF'd fodder

which means Big Boss may end up in 44-46% range tbqh

Kirby still has a chance to beat Dante in R3. Someone will submit that moronic Viewtiful Dante picture, and if Bacon picks it you can forget about it against sprite Kirby.

Same here. The only reason I have Kirby > Dante is because it's already proven that Leon will LFF Dante. I should have went with my gut instinct that Kirby was on a completely lower tier then all three of them though.

overreactions woo

Kirby should be safe for round 3. Ocelot/Kratos/Sephiroth/Tifa is a little interesting, though. wonder if Ocelot can top Kratos in round 1, too - he should get the biggest boost out of everyone, I'd think. someone submit his MGS4 picture.

I expect a weaker performance from Big Boss next round. Two reasons:

1. His picture will be less Snakelike at close range.
2. Raiden will beat him tbqh.

I don't want to sound like an ass, but I still don't understand what the hell anyone was thinking when they took Dante>Leon in R2.

Riku could beat Leon outright in a 1 on 1. How is Leon supposed to win with Dante there?

Yeah, the only way Kirby looks good after this is if Dante brings Leon with him. I've got Riku making it to the division finals, but I'll be pulling hard for Leon now.

Just like I said "Holy **** Squall", a big good ol' "Reverse Holy **** Lucas" on this one.

I knew he'd be weaker than expected, and everyone expected him to be weak in the first place! But this is just laugh out loud pathetic.

1. His picture will be less Snakelike at close range.

Odds are good he'll get a picture of him saluting from MGS3, which may be even better than what he has here. Won't have to worry about the pic next round, but if he wins there he gets screwed by the sprite round.
