Laharl winning is a great victory for us all, miserable vassal. Also yes BT that's right. --- Though Neku's cool too. |

So...if Laharl after 6 years finally wins in his version of Vyse/Laharl...who does Neku get to beat up in 2k16? --- http://i259.photobucket.com/albums/hh293/zukiraphaera/war-sig-1.png |

Kratos
is pretty good during the day, but he's not going to be able to take
advantage of it. Sora's stronger than Kratos to begin with. --- "But you have been given freedom. Freedom to be...outside." "I am lightning...the rain transformed." |

I'm
sorely tempted to switch to Magus>Alucard. I saw someone mention how
Magus should take the early lead, and with his night vote being just as
good how could he blow it? ...but of course, he's Magus. Too bad for Magus the Frog supporters never seemed to aid him in his times of need, otherwise I'd certainly take him, since this should be a close Frog-like match. Hey guys, what's the consensus on Sora/Kratos? Sora>Charizard. Might not be the consensus but that's what I think. --- gamefaqscontests.com gamefaqscontests.com/gallery |

True, but Kratos won't exactly perform that much better if it was a night match. --- Board 8 BOP: http://www.freewebs.com/charmander6000/CB8%20BOP.xls Submit bracket here: http://www.gamefaqs.com/boards/genmessage.php?board=8&topic=52670380 |

From: LeonhartFour | #171 I'm surprised that creative's putting stock in the pokeymanz this year! And Alucard's Power Hour isn't anything to sneeze at either. Can't be getting burned by the pokécraze too often! Seriously though, I fully expect Charizard to put up 45%+ on Sora which puts him at or a bit above Pikachu. --- Taking him anyway because I'm crazy! |

I
saw someone mention how Magus should take the early lead, and with his
night vote being just as good how could he blow it? ...but of course,
he's Magus. If that match started at night, Magus should have the lead early on with his godly board vote. But with that match starting in the day, who knows how that will affect the board vote. --- Luster Soldier --- ~Shield Bearer~ | ~Data Analyst~ Popular at school, but not as cool as KrahenProphet, Guru Champ! |

Something
I just thought of; what do you think the votals will be for every 12
hour match on an average? Also, could we see characters that love
votals that low do better? I personally think the votals will be about 60,000-65,000. As for the later, I could see some upsets occuring thanks to the lower votals. Characters like Crono and Cube looking slighty better? --- The Gamer In Me "Ike and Ash and co. saw a Yoshi and didn't catch it" - Mer telling us his dream |

Ack, I keep forgetting Magus/Alucard is a day match. Alucard it shall be then. The Plan commences in earnest. I'm surprised that creative's putting stock in the pokeymanz this year! Why? I've always supported Mewtwo being very strong (think he's underrated still actually). For years before we saw him. I think Charizard should be right there with him, and potentially even stronger. I just loathed the rat. (except when he beat L...that was awesome...hail the rat!) --- gamefaqscontests.com gamefaqscontests.com/gallery |

its
pretty obvious that its starting tonight unless bacon doesnt know what
day it is. "In just a few hours the contest begins" on the front page I honestly think he *doesn't* know what day it is. I think the intent was to start tomorrow night (Friday 9pm PST) - but he's gotten confused, and once he realizes he'll probably say "ah the heck with it" and start tonight anyway. --- gamefaqscontests.com gamefaqscontests.com/gallery |

Why? Well, I just remember all your arguments against RBY in the Games Contest. That's all. I've always supported Mewtwo being very strong (think he's underrated still actually) Eh, he struggled to beat Midna. I don't think he's that strong. He did decently on Bowser because of Toad, I think. --- "I can set you free, mate." "My freedom was forfeit long ago!" |

Charizard
could potentially become the next Lucario. Everyone thinks he'll do
good because of X reason and then he shocks us all by losing. Mewtwo's gonna get exposed. Maybe not this contest, but in a future contest. I say that because he's got Ganon, so no one's going to take that match seriously. Missingno avoids the doubling on sole joke factor and the low votals. --- The Gamer In Me "paulg is a genius." - MajinZidane |

Charizard would own Lucario, no doubt about it. --- "Spoil it for me. I'm never going to play that game so I want to know if he's going to be another Auron or another Sin." - Soul about Jecht vs. PW |

I do think Charizard will do fine, though. I'm sure he'll beat Duke relatively easy, then lose to Kratos respectively. --- The Gamer In Me "paulg is a genius." - MajinZidane |

If Charizard lost to Duke Nukem, that would be pulling a Lucario. Otherwise no. --- ------ --------- |

I'm
now starting to have major doubts about Nathan Drake for the first
time. I'm just remembering the opponents The Boss has defeated and I
don't think Nathan would be able to beat them. Drake/Tails, I would
probably pick Tails, Drake/Raiden, definitely Raiden. Agh, Last minute bracket panic! I'm now thinking of changing to The Boss. --- The Gamer In Me "Ike and Ash and co. saw a Yoshi and didn't catch it" - Mer telling us his dream |

Drake/Tails, I would probably pick Tails, Drake/Raiden, definitely Raiden. I wouldn't take anything from those vote-in polls in determining character strength. They were 12-way polls, so it's easier to defeat a certain character there. If The Boss's poll had been cut down to the top 4, she might have a harder time still being able to defeat Raiden, if she even can. --- Luster Soldier --- ~Shield Bearer~ | ~Data Analyst~ Popular at school, but not as cool as KrahenProphet, Guru Champ! |
