So, Ryu>Dante people

Where have you been the last five minutes, REFAQS.

I'm more worried about CLOUD/CHRIS.

It's like it suddenly became a lot more awesome, giving us these crazy-ass close matches and unexpected results.

There really is none. That match is a lock for Dante now.

Ken's a guy who hasn't made a contest in what... seven years? I think attributing this to some kind of Street Fighter weakening is a little extreme.

It's possible that the 4way contests turned a non-negligible number of voters into the pro wrestling equivalent of "smart marks." I really don't know how to explain what I'm thinking any better than that, so I apologize if you don't know wrasslin.

logic would dictate that Ken is the 2nd strongest character from the series. And if he loses to Wesker, then thats a serious SF deboost.

Ken is most likely done.

If only I could find my post in a previous CS&D topic about how no one's really talking about Wesker/Ken and everyone just mentioned his match against Luca Blight and ridiculed me for debating it.

Told you so doesn't get me any points though :(

So, in other words, people noticed OGM LINK ALWAYS WINS and the like, researched the Noble Nine, and learned a bit more about the contest, for instance? It would explain obvious winners underperforming.

Speaking of 4-ways, if this was a four-way match, Mewtwo would've advanced with Ganon.

Ganon: 35%
Mewtwo: 28%
Wesker: 19%
Ken: 18%

pffft, Akuma is totally second strongest. Maybe Ken's even number 4 at this point. SFIV online people using him all the time has obviously made everyone else hate the guy.

For the record, Wesker did manage to have the worst ASV last year in a match featuring Snake, Vivi, and Sackboy. Maybe there's hope for Ken yet. Ryu's ASV's always been pretty bad though.

Definitely. Wesker was able to break 35% on Sora in '07 and Ganondorf is most likely even weaker.
