L-Block has no chance of going down next round, Ryu's much more capable than either of the next guys...

But I guess if you want to go for the outside shot you go with Arthas + anyone for mass rallying potential.

I'd say out of the 4 guys in tomorrows match, though none have a very good chance, Arthasdefinently has the best due to seeing what Blizz ralliers have done with Starcraft in the past

If Arthras can't keep it a close match for second, then I highly doubt that rallying will matter. If Blizz fans see that Arthras doesn't have a shot, aren't they inclined to vote L-Block?

Blizz fans are about as loyal as they come, but are mostly PC centric gamers, too. They'er not gonna vote for a joke character over one of their beloved characters

The rallier (go, Albion, go!) will just have imply it is close. If the percentages look reasonably close I doubt they'll argue!

Thats what I've done with previous matches even if they are close, so why not go that route again?

If Ramza was weak enough to be rallied against for the loss, he deserved to lose.

Yeah. With disappointing performances like his bomb against Knuckles and choking to Sandbag, it makes us wonder how the hell he avoided getting doubled by Link once.

I know I keep sticking up for the people in fourth place often this round for some reason, but is anyone else impressed with Ammy being able to stick in there with close to 15%? I mean Block, Crono, and Ryu are literally three of the impressive characters in contest history, and Ammy isn't exactly looking terrible here. Good job Okami fans. Of course the percentage will probably end up closer to 12% or something, but still.

What does Ryu have to do at all with Ammy?

They're not from the same era.
They're not from the same genre.
The characters are nothing alike.
