It used to be Sonic/Crono in 2006, where Sonic came back from 2250 or so vote. I think Magus/Sandbag in 2008 topped that, though.

If Kirby/Rikku is close, I'm using the vote-in poll to hype Frog > Bowser.


Speaking of which, does Crono get night matches? Because if so, we're probably going to see Crono from 2k4, NOT the Crono from 2k8. I've got plenty of respect for CT's lead when he doesn't have to deal with the day.

Didn't Squall do better during the night in their last match?

I thought that was when Squall won his one update vs. Snake.

This match is over. Cecil put up a good show, but it's not quite good enough. He'll be back after the next re-re-re-release of FFIV

Still, I feel like a "LOL Team Sonic" is appropriate.

The biggest comeback that ended with the person doing the comeback winning is still Sonic/Crono I think, at around 2250 votes. Magus/Sandbag fell short by about 100 votes. The biggest comeback with the person coming back taking the lead but ultimately losing is Master Chief/Frog from 2004- Frog was leading by around 2400 votes before the ASV.

The most impressive comeback ever is probably Donkey Kong/Duck Hunt. Donkey Kong led by 3200 before the ASV (in a year with pretty low votals) and ended up winning by about 100. Duck Hunt ran out of time in the end.

If you adjust for votals, the largest comeback ever was Axel's against Frog, and it's not even close.

Here's the Top 10 (NOTE: Not all 2009 matches have been counted yet.):

1. Frog/Axel: 3754 (1903)
2. Squall/Sora R3 (2008): 3384 (1528)
3. Magus/Sandbag: 3277 (2150)
4. DK/DH: 3203 (3108)
5. Fenix/Ocelot: 2849 (1276)
6. Frog/Master Chief: 2650 (2413)
7. Starcraft/Wind Waker: 2442 (2022)
8. Raiden/Sam Fisher: 2304 (1158)
9. Duke Nukem/Altair R2: 2278 (1863)
10. Sora/Squall R2 (2008): 2246 (1684)

Squall/Sora isn't a comeback because Sora never came back.

Same with Raiden/Fisher and Duke/Altair.

Awesome to see Cecil finally making some noise in this contest.

This is totally thanks to Dissida, and my Cloud > Link upset is going to happen. This is not Sonic team getting weaker, it's the FF crew kicking serious ass!!!

However Kefka will still lose because he's Kefka.

Hey look, actual trends! Lightning did very good overnight, as expected. Couldn't quite get that 40% hour though. Sonic noticeably improved once we hit the morning vote full swing. I dunno what got into him that last hour, but he started tearing into Lightning there.

Yep. The full list as of 2007 and some of R1 2008 is located here:

http://www.gamefaqs.com/boards/genmessage.php?board=572228&topic=45956004

It's not perfect, since it doesn't adjust for how many votals the match had during the comeback, but it's good enough, I think.
