I'm rather surprised at Duke this year, i don't recall him having this much power before. Now Marth is in danger of getting shoved out of contention by Altair, you think the Brawl fans will attempt to rally for him tomorrow? --- "If my fate is to die, I must simply laugh." -Magus (see quote for full) |

this isn't duke being strong, just everyone here being low-midcard.

But before 2007, his one win was against Iori Yagami - and I don't know
who he is, only that he's from the King of Fighters series. --- Isaac and Princess Kumatora for SSB4! SSBB Mains: Zelda, Peach, Lucas, Ness Now we must duel, like two gleaming banjos on a moonlit stoop! -Dimentio, SPM |

Well yeah, but his other matches were against Ryu and Cloud Strife, no way does Duke even touch them. Since 2007 though, he's gotten a lot of low-midcard opponents, which is great for him. --- Moltar Status: augh Marth/Duke/Altair/Lucario - Bracket: Lucario > Niko - Vote: Lucario (103/136) |

Yeah. Even low midcarder is more than I expected outta Duke, really. Same here. After all, his one win pre-2007 was way back in 2002. --- Isaac and Princess Kumatora for SSB4! SSBB Mains: Zelda, Peach, Lucas, Ness Now we must duel, like two gleaming banjos on a moonlit stoop! -Dimentio, SPM |

Hmm, interesting. This is the first match that definitively showed me
Pokemon/Nintendo LFF. Based on Pikachu and Mewtwo last year, I was
holding out hope that Marth would win by avoiding LFF. I guess not. :( --- -Heals severely dry skin -18 hour moisturization -Fragrance free -With Vitamin E |

Eh, I thought Duke was more high fodder myself, but ever since his R1
match last year, he definitely looks to be a low-midcarder. Didn't think that all these characters would be down there with him though augh --- Moltar Status: augh Marth/Duke/Altair/Lucario - Bracket: Lucario > Niko - Vote: Lucario (103/136) |

Japago (#210) That was up for debate? Am I reading this right...you thought Nintendo and Pokemon characters wouldn't share a fanbase?

It seems logical that they would. But based on Pikachu and Mewtwo, like I tried it out. Pikachu did worse in relation to Tidus when Issac was removed. Ryu did only 6% worse in relation to Bowser when Toad and Mewtwo were removed. But yeah, feel free to laugh at me :). --- -Heals severely dry skin -18 hour moisturization -Fragrance free -With Vitamin E |

Right now, I'd say that 30% is pretty much a lock for Altair. If he's
above 29% before the ASV, he'll go berserk then and easily break 30%. --- Luster Soldier - Popular at school. ~Shield Bearer~ | ~Data Analyst~ |

Altair looked like he might have some decent strength in the first round, but if he can't even beat Duke hes nothing special. --- "The PS2 had 12,000,000 pre orders. To give you an idea of how many people that is that's over half of the world population." - DifferentialEquation |

| you know, I bet Duke holds up great against Link.
I could see him having a nice performance there -- probably not enough
to take down Zack, but Duke getting 20% wouldn't surprise me. --- xyzzy la la la you're dead la la la la we killed you la la la |

Don't think Bacon wants the earliest possible, just one from a 2D appearance. --- six bullets. more than enough to kill anything that moves. |

Liking Duke's chances at holding onto first now! He should be at 1200
by the next update, if he keeps this pace and he's got another 3 hours
to go before the morning hits. --- http://i169.photobucket.com/albums/u205/MapleMasta/IkeClimbers2.jpg http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xDaGWrPcjb8 |

I like the fact that Altair is also gaining (albeit relatively
steadily) while the Nintendo characters are just dying off. They'll be
getting the lion's share of the day vote, further worsening his
chances. --- Yoblazer: http://i33.tinypic.com/16hnm05.jpg Watch and you'll see... someday I'll be... part of your world! |

Is that to say that Altair may end up getting ousted by Marth? Na, Altair only needs a passable day vote to keep this lead safe, and he demonstrated that last round. It does, however, make Duke's lead safer. I'm not even expecting the Duke to have a day vote meltdown, though... not with such a casual friendly pic. --- Yoblazer: http://i33.tinypic.com/16hnm05.jpg Watch and you'll see... someday I'll be... part of your world! |

Well Altair had a damn good day vote last round.. but so did Marth. So
not sure. Not a big enough difference for Marth to come back from 2k
down or however far he'll be down though --- http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v410/RyanSaotome/rydia.gif http://card.mygamercard.net/geothermal/Albion+Hero.png |

So, Link>Zack is a guarantee in the next round then, eh? Looks like the Kefka>Altair pick in this round isn't going to hurt me as much as I thought too. So kind of Altair to get second, as I slowly creep back into the game and yet again threaten to make the leaderboard.

Altair has been doing pretty good at stalling Duke for the past hour.

even possibly take the lead over Duke. --- Luster Soldier - Popular at school. ~Shield Bearer~ | ~Data Analyst~ |
