That's exactly why it's bad. Arthas isn't that strong himself and Thrall is even weaker. It's interesting that today's match suggests Arthas is as strong as Magus, though, so we have 2 signs Thrall isn't that bad now. --- 6 years later, Crono's quest to defeat Sephiroth -- Round 1: Missingno 'Till shade is gone, 'till water is gone, into the shadow with teeth bared.... |

To be honest I'd expect Rat/Ike to have hurt Arthas more than Alucard, so Arthas probably takes Magus without too much trouble. ....man Magus, you might be weaker than a guy who lost Vergil. --- http://i259.photobucket.com/albums/hh293/zukiraphaera/war-sig-1.png |

Link breaks 80% with ease with a full 24 hours. Heck, he might even make it to 82%+ at the rate he was going. --- "The great GF...Bahamut." "...GF? I...? Using my powers...It is you humans...I fear..." |

Yesterday
wasn't a bad performance by Link just because the Oracle had everyone
going mid 80s. Thrall is probably the second strongest Warcraft
character behind Arthas. I'd say Illidan is the second strongest character in the Warcraft universe, but that's going strictly off of WC3. --- Calling Pokemon RBY a top 10 game was the most insane contest jibba-jabba ever Woe unto he who sig bets with the near-invincible Lord High creativename |

It's interesting that today's match suggests Arthas is as strong as Magus, though, so we have 2 signs Thrall isn't that bad now. Both of them being high fodder seems reasonably sensible. I think Link was also hurt a little more because the match was on a weekend and he couldn't really take advantage of his morning vote, but that's a pretty small difference. I must say that I like this 12 hour thing, though I wish it were a bit more balanced...My intuition is that 6-6 or 7-7 would more fairly split votals while also being more exciting (3-4 hours for ASV comebacks and 7 hours for night comebacks). --- Mustache...and Green... http://backloggery.com/rpguy96 |

Nintendo
always slows down in the afternoon on weekends. Link might have gotten
to 81%, but then even 82% would still have been pretty disappointing. --- 6 years later, Crono's quest to defeat Sephiroth -- Round 1: Missingno 'Till shade is gone, 'till water is gone, into the shadow with teeth bared.... |

Alucard with over 59% that last hour. I wonder if he can hit 60% by the time this thing is done. By the way, Magus looking this crappy makes Phoenix Wright look pretty crappy now, too. --- "But you have been given freedom. Freedom to be...outside." "I am lightning...the rain transformed." |

Jecht > Phoenix a lock I'd say Illidan is the second strongest character in the Warcraft universe, but that's going strictly off of WC3. I would have to agree. I nommed him this year and was hoping he'd get in since I think he might even give Arthas a run for his money. That dude has awesome character design too, something Thrall sadly lacks. --- http://i48.tinypic.com/24ytvz8.png Albion Hero is the Cream of Loli Fanboyism |

By the way, Magus looking this crappy makes Phoenix Wright look pretty crappy now, too. And Sonic.. and Shepard... (though he probably still wins his match anyway). --- *is Dranze* Krahen Prophet did a fatality. |
LeonhartFour | Posted 1/16/2010 12:08:50 PM | message detail |
Sonic looked pretty crappy anyway. Plus, it's looking like Sandbag's round 2 number on Sonic was the more accurate one anyway! From 35% on Link to 35% on Sonic 2008. This is Magus. --- "So cold. I am always by your side." "There ain't no gettin' off of this train we on!" |

Well, using 2007 Magus, the one Phoenix faced, makes this match....make sense. Magus only got 27.63% on Mario that year. --- 6 years later, Crono's quest to defeat Sephiroth -- Round 1: Missingno 'Till shade is gone, 'till water is gone, into the shadow with teeth bared.... |

Can Alucard push hard enough to reverse 2k3 exactly? Magus (2003c) has a strength of 34.93 against Base Link. Alucard (2003c) has a strength of 27.56 against Base Link. Magus wins with 60.55% of the vote! A 23,448 vote margin of victory. --- http://i259.photobucket.com/albums/hh293/zukiraphaera/war-sig-1.png |

Magus' recent contest history! 2005: Lost a match to Knuckles that nobody expected him to lose 2006: Did not make the bracket 2007: Lost a match to Big Boss (to be fair, as Naked Snake) that nobody expected him to lose 2008: Lost a match to Sandbag that only a handful of people expected him to lose 2009: Lost a match to Alucard where he was the slight underdog --- Mustache...and Green... http://backloggery.com/rpguy96 |

4-way matches don't make Arthas weak. He's low midcard. --- "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 |

A
lot of people expected Magus to lose to Sandbag or at least thought it
had a good chance of happening. This is far more embarassing than
losing to a joke in a 4-way can ever be. --- 6 years later, Crono's quest to defeat Sephiroth -- Round 1: Missingno 'Till shade is gone, 'till water is gone, into the shadow with teeth bared.... |

So
that % on Mario is for real? .. My goodness Magus. If that dropped

Well, everyone thought Naked Snake messed everything up in that match, so nobody took it seriously. Fact/Fiction: Magus will not win an update the entire match. --- "So cold. I am always by your side." "There ain't no gettin' off of this train we on!" |

Alucard
come to think of it, is a very under the radar type of character, we
never expect anythng from him and we never really hype him or bash, we
just go PLAN whenever he shows up. --- Shakes Fist! |

Well, everyone thought Naked Snake messed everything up in that match, so nobody took it seriously. I guess Mario is our new Sam Fisher then.

Alucard to break 35% on Link next round. Believe. --- No problem! This is a cute and pop genocide of love! |

And by 35% I mean 50% I'm sure some x-stats whoring can make that terrible pigman performance and this awesome Magus performance turn into a win for Alucard right? --- No problem! This is a cute and pop genocide of love! |
WarThaNemesis2 | Posted 1/16/2010 12:51:50 PM | message detail |
It depends, do you think Magus could have boosted 6% on Base Link from CTDS? If so, then based on 2k3 Magus Alucard has a shot! --- http://i259.photobucket.com/albums/hh293/zukiraphaera/war-sig-1.png |
red sox 777 | Posted 1/16/2010 12:52:22 PM | message detail |
50% is probably doable but harder. It's very easy to get Alucard to 41.82% though- just go through this match and Link/Magus. --- 6 years later, Crono's quest to defeat Sephiroth -- Round 1: Missingno 'Till shade is gone, 'till water is gone, into the shadow with teeth bared.... |
LeonhartFour | Posted 1/16/2010 12:55:08 PM | message detail |
From: Lopen | #244 Well, let's see... Link got 79.81% on Thrall yesterday. Ganondorf got 74.38% on Thrall in 2007. Magus got 50.30% on Ganondorf in 2003. Alucard has 58.24% on Magus right now. If I'm doing it right (and I'm probably not), then Alucard is projected to get 79.21% on Thrall. It's practically a tossup! --- "I can set you free, mate." "My freedom was forfeit long ago!" |
Lopen | Posted 1/16/2010 12:55:09 PM | message detail |
Well
correct me if I'm wrong but isn't Thrall estimated at like 14% by 2007
stats, making Link through Thrall like... 34 on Base Link? --- No problem! This is a cute and pop genocide of love! |

WarThaNemesis2 | Posted 1/16/2010 12:56:43 PM | message detail |
Hm...let's see... Based on 2007 Thrall, Ganon is expected to get 75% on Thrall. Based on 2k3, Magus = Ganon, so Magus is expected to get 75% on Thrall. Based on Magus at 75% on Thrall and Link at 80% on Thrall, Link is expected to get around 58% on Magus. --- http://i259.photobucket.com/albums/hh293/zukiraphaera/war-sig-1.png |
