Wow Pikachu...looking at Alucard's round 1 match, he does have some comeback potential with the second night vote past around 10 PM, but Pikachu will probably have the lead by 6, 7 at latest, at this pace, and will have too big a lead to lose here.

Yes, but it still shows his patheticness in 1v1 regardless. He isn't beating any of these guys in a 1v1 match

CF isn't going to do anything with the ASV. Pikachu isn't bad with it; Ike just has a really good ASV.

Also, my stance has not changed from last night. Ike>CF easily.

Nonetheless, i must credit Alucard for doing rather good this year.

Arthas looks worse this round because last round Ike and Pikachu were hurting each other, while this round it's more of Pikachu SFFing Falcon.

I think we were overcrediting Arthas all along. Pika's getting SFF'd and Alucard's a midcarder so I'd say Arthas is probably lower mid which is less than we probably credited him for.

Oh, and is it me or is Alucard looking better than he did last year? Coming close to Pikachu, held back by Falcon or otherwise, is pretty good considering the 'drop some every year' pattern he was following.

The way Captain Foddercon is so close to everyone else concerns me, I wouldn't call this a good year for Alucard yet, this could just be a very bad Pikachu year and they'll both get murdered next round.

1. Never use names like 'Fales Characters' and 'Captain Foddercon'. It makes you sound like BT.

With the pic factor, most of Arthas' fanbase comse from WoW, and the pic he has today and last year isn't recognized as Arthas by the typical WoW players. He's known as the Lich King, with his helmet and sword in the Wotlk promo pics and in game. So yeah, I think that was his biggest problem this round... a pic his main fanbase doesn't know as him.

Has to be, he did like trash last year with that pic, then looks like a solid midcarder with his wotlk pic, now looks like trash again with his Warcraft 3 pic.

I dunno if barely beating an obviously handicapped Ike qualifies anyone as a "solid midcarder." In any case, I now think either Ike or Diablo would deserve a 1v1 bracket spot more than Arthas.

And you think Arthas wasn't LFF'd by Spy in round 1, too? Obviously round 1 Arthas was a different character then we're seeing today.

Diablo would almost certainly be stronger than Arthas in a 1 on 1 setting next year. His boost from Diablo 3 is going to be much more than a WoW expansion.

Arthas proved stronger pre WoW Expac/pre D3, and WoW is bigger then Diablo series, so I'd say Arthas still will be stronger then Diablo next year.

Well done Arthas. You edged out a Fire Emblem character who has never won anything in this contest before, barely finished ahead of an F-Zero fodder entry who was also being SFF'd in the match as well as beating the mighty"Spy". It's as impressive an achievement as it sounds.
