I agree that Pikachu is weird, and an unhindered rat is clearly a scary thing, but Luigi didn't seem to have any trouble SFFing it in their match last year. I'm not expecting it to make any noise, or cost Samus anything more than Ganondorf did.

ok I take it back.

ZSS is the only thing that can hold Samus back.

Pikachu impressed last year too, but Luigi still beat him fair enough when it was all over. Ganondorf beat Luigi by 3% when he had a good pic and still only barely lost with Bacondorf. Samus destroyed Ganon twice this year.

Pikachu has been great this year...but unless he's changed a decent bit from last year, I don't like the idea of him messing up Samus. If push comes to shove, even if Samus is affected by Pikachu, Samus will also be the odd one out in a way: she'll be the only non-RPG character, and each of the other three represent very different yet large aspects of the RPG genre.


I think Samus still has first place tomorrow. If Pikachu costs her first, then I think this is an even more beastly version of Pikachu we're seeing this year.

With ZSS being more recognizable, if anything, it'll HELP her.

I'd entertain the idea of pikachu mega boosting and beating Sonic 1v1 before I bought ZSS helping Samus.

I mean come on.

My point is that Samus nearly collapsed against Tifa because you couldn't recognize that as Samus.

predictions for the next match

Pikachu leads for like one minute due to insane board vote

Vincent is in last or close to pikachu by the freeze,due to horrible board vote

Crono is ahead of samus at the freeze
Fayt_Esteed | Posted 11/13/2008 3:57:49 PM | message detail
Those other posts were poorly worded. ZSS should be more recognizable relative to when it was used back in 2006. That said, we'll likely have to wait until a 1-on-1 before we can confirm how she performs with it relative to with the Power Suit. Though I'll guess that it doesn't hurt her too badly.

Epic pic is epic

I don't like the campaign button one, or the shadow one. The others seem pretty good though. Vincent is a little blurry and indistinct in most, but I think that's mainly because he just isn't a photogenic character. He's still recognizable.

I don't think you have to worry too much about Layton getting into round 3.

Or making another contest.

The first and last pic are terrible because you can't make out any of the characters. The rest are good. 3rd and 5th are the best.

1 - Button picture is completely stupid. You can barely make out the characters. Advantage - Pikachu
2 - yay for brown... and photoshopping. what the hell
3 - WHAT?! A GOOD PIC?!
4 - acceptable. plus crono's about to get PIKA PIK'd
5 - acceptable.
6 - shadows? where the **** do people get these awful ideas? jesus christ. Even the lettering sucks. Way to go.

conclusion: NO ZSS WHOOOOOOOOO
