I'd take L-Block in the bracket over Amaterasu, although I think both can find a nice home there. --- Yoblazer: http://i33.tinypic.com/16hnm05.jpg Watch and you'll see... someday I'll be... part of your world! |

If anyone has a shot at taking down L on their own merits next round,
it might be Pikachu. Unlikely, but with enough fluking one way or
another, it's possible. --- "The right to be God. That right is now mine"--Albert Wesker |

Well, we're both getting 4 points, so it's not really a great choice
for me. Plus, you've got better odds if L-Block makes it out of round 3. But thanks anyways! --- # of Days until things start looking up for me: 9 All started when: I broke my arm. November 3rd, 2007 |

The problem with this result is that Pikachu could weaken Crono enough for L-block to sneak through. Hmmm? The link seems to be very tenuous to me. Yeah, they're both RPGs, but they're very different sorts of RPGs that aren't likely to appeal to the same sorts of people. Yeah, they're both Nintendo, but as popular as the gameboy was back then, you can't really assume that someone having it is going to be a Nintendo diehard with all the other Nintendo consoles. --- "There she lusted after her lovers, whose genitals were like those of donkeys and whose emission was like that of horses." --Ezekiel 23:20 |

| Crono should dominate next round. Ryu and
Amaterasu are far stronger than any possible combination of 2
characters from tomorrow's 4-pack. If Alucard and Pikachu are there, I
think it may go 38/30/18/14 or so. --- Crono's quest to kick L-Block out of this contest: Round 2: Crono > L-Block > Ryu > Amaterasu |

Ammy's getting 34% of the vote on Crono. Quick! Someone do an x-stat calculation based on Crono's 2k6 value to see how awesome Ammy is! --- "There she lusted after her lovers, whose genitals were like those of donkeys and whose emission was like that of horses." --Ezekiel 23:20 |

Well, Alucard was projected through Auron to get 32.40% on Crono in 2006, so I'd take Ammy over Alucard now. --- Crono's quest to kick L-Block out of this contest: Round 2: Crono > L-Block > Ryu > Amaterasu |

and it looks like it will stay that way as Ryu hasn't gained any
percentage on Crono in a few hours....he's actually slowly losing
ground to Crono now. --- Crono's quest to kick L-Block out of this contest: Round 2: Crono > L-Block > Ryu > Amaterasu |

I would prefer Clinkeroth to be in the main bracket. There's nothing
like Link and Cloud trying to outdo each other's performances for 4 or
5 rounds before their epic showdown. Also, while I wouldn't expect any
of them to pull it off, I'd like Samus and Snake (and post CTDS Crono!)
to have an opportunity to try to take down Seph. --- Crono's quest to kick L-Block out of this contest: Round 2: Crono > L-Block > Ryu > Amaterasu |

Oh, no, you have the GoW Kratos. And I guess ToS Kratos is pretty weak now... I would still put in Diablo. Diablo III will probably give him a nice boost. --- (|| ' ' ||) Not changing my sig until EBA2/Ouendan 3 is announced. (4/22/08) . /|_|\ http://imgcake.com/img/40/all_eba.jpg |

I considered all of those suggestions, believe it or not. I gave most
consideration to Ike and Ocelot. Ocelot... I see no reason to put him
in over Jill now (let alone after RE5), and I'm not sure if Ike has
enough to actually win a match. --- Yoblazer: http://i33.tinypic.com/16hnm05.jpg Watch and you'll see... someday I'll be... part of your world! |

I can't see Metal Gear Solid getting 5 characters in a 64 character

who deserves it the most. --- ...I'm still War13104! "and seriously, white flags, god damnit. v.v" - ExThaNemesis, 11:44 PM EST, 1/28/07 |

Not enough balance in the bracket, with the current situation you've
got characters like KOS-MOS or Raiden being brought along only to be
punching bag 16 seeds for the Noble 9. You need the likes of Tales and
Xbox characters to fill that important role and not kill joys who'll
break 20%. --- Smurf. The cream of Sonic Fanboyism you're like some devious internet fiend- Majin |

Possibly (I'm skeptical of how Arthas can do without benefiting from a
split + 4-ways helping rallying), but just saying. If you're going to
put in Captain Falcon, who is basically CF : Melee, Ike : Brawl, you
might as well put in Ike. --- Bracket: http://thengamer.com/guru/bracket.php?id=10 |

Well, we'd have to cut some midcarders for the sake of bigger first
round blowouts. Doesn't matter to me one way or another, since you're
right in that those weaker characters will have a very tough time
winning a match, regardless. --- Yoblazer: http://i33.tinypic.com/16hnm05.jpg Watch and you'll see... someday I'll be... part of your world! |

You also didn't put anyone in the Star Fox category. Or am I missing something? And if you're basing this on who will get in and not on who deserves to get in, throw in some cult characters like Laharl. --- Bracket: http://thengamer.com/guru/bracket.php?id=10 |

I'm not sure if Ike would beat Arthas 1v1 or not. People seem to ignore

I'd remove Rikku and Charizard. Charizard is because he's just a guess

thought Lucario would be strong yet he was a joke, so I don't see any
reason Charizard would be a given. --- http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v410/RyanSaotome/rydia.gif http://card.mygamercard.net/geothermal/Albion+Hero.png |
