Is it too late to start thinking of characters to nominate who won't be complete embarrassments?

We could always nominate Missingno's brother M!

Don't everyone get too excited... Ken has this handled. We are only a few thousand votes in, and this being the day votes mean this will be the underdog push... check older day tournies for reference... I like this new format! ^_^

Ryu > Chun-Li > Akuma > Sagat > Bison > everyone else > Ken > Dan

Dan is actually the most awesome, but he wouldn't be Dan if he wasn't in last.

This certainly doesn't hurt my theory that voters are becoming more cynical and voting for what makes them cool and anti-establishment!


Knew it was only a matter of time before GFAQS got too cool for school! :P

SFIV online people using him all the time has obviously made everyone else hate the guy.

So how bad does Sagat do?


TIGER overcomes the antivotes. Too much priority!

In all seriousness, I think we should totally rally Garland next year. He'll knock down the competition... and he could actually be sort of popular maybe !

Did Ryu look any weaker in 2008? He had the whole L-Block thing going on, but I was wondering if he appeared weaker then and whether it was just waved off because he was in the same match as L-Block.

We should nominate Dan McNeely from Trapped. He would put up quite a fight, because I'm fairly sure no one see a picture of him and NOT vote for him. He would die in the sprite round for sure though.
KanzarisKelshen | Posted 1/21/2010 9:29:02 AM | message detail
Leon's right. SFF matches don't enable close matches, they prevent them. The only example of SFF doing something to make it close is Zelda 1 vs. All Marios, and that was a once-in-a-lifetime kinda thing.

I'm not surprised at this result in the slightest. I had a strange feeling Wesker was underrated. You don't go from almost beating Lara Croft to barely beating Sackboy. Snake did something there.

He got blasted by Auron in 2k7, and did only decently against a weak Megaman in 2k6, if it helps.

It is when you're as pathetic as Wesker.

At least pre-RE5 Wesker. I almost want to take him to beat Kefka in a rematch now!

No, we should nominate War from TMNT Tournament Fighters.

Let's just nominate every War we can think of.

Better yet, let's go with my plan to make every character in the next tournament Nolan North.Only Nolan North characters. Nathan Drake vs. Guy from Halo ODST, Desmond Miles vs. Additional Voices from Dragon Age. It will be great.

Yeah, I'm not sure there's much of a fanbase overlap between Street Fighter and Resident Evil, despite them both being Capcom franchises. They're very different types of games, and Jill Sandwich is the only Resident Evil character to show up in a Capcom fighting game.

So I could buy there being SFF if it were Jill in here instead of Wesker.

Then again I usually don't know what I'm talking about.

Ken is still winning North America, which makes me think the ASV favors him. A bit.

There's never been the smallest shred of evidence for Capcom SFF, and it doesn't even make sense intuitively.

Capcom SFF is more of a joke than a theory. I do believe in the possibility of an RE boost, however. RE5 was Wesker's first big game in like seven years (because we all know Umbrella Chronicles didn't do jack), and was his introduction to the Xbox crowd.

At least Jill should really stomp Niko now.
