I have Gordon Freeman > Tifa, and subsequently, Gordon Freeman > whoever he faces next (ness?), but I'm not confident at all in freeman to beat Tifa, and I'm kind of regretting it, even still.

Eh, saying Mega Man was LFF'd by Samus and Ryu reeks to me of looking for LFF where it doesn't exist to justify a bad performance. Mega Man didn't really look that great in 2007 or 2008.

Yeah, 62% on Tidus isn't exactly "inspiring".


Oh man. Anyone remember when Tidus v. Shadow was a heavily debated match? Good times!

Vincent also put up 45% on Samus in that match, a great deal better than the 39% Megaman put up in 2007.

Against Axel Mega went from 75.06% 35 minutes in to 72.76% 12 hours in. I think Cid will break 37%, and could push closer to 40%, by the finish (his trends should be more overnight based as opposed to Axel's).

message detail Why is noone discussing the possibility of Gordon Freeman > Tifa?

Because 43% on Sonic and doubling Peach is more impressive than anything Gordon's ever done in these.


I can't wait for Gordon to double Peach, and Tifa to only get around 70% on Yuri. I'm actually wishing I pulled the trigger on that one. Valve games have just seemed to become so much more popular nowadays, and the popularity of Steam must be giving Gordon SOME improvement, especially considering he managed to get a 2 seed and win the Gamespot contest.

I'm still hoping we find a suitable fourth for our Magus/Shadow/Kefka Fourpack of Suck! Closest I can think of is Donkey Kong, and even then he's more inconsistent than bad.

I've never even played a Half-Life game (well, Portal on the Orange Box if you want to count that), but I would love to see that upset take place. Just think, Gordon goes from losing to Tina to beating Tifa. The ultimate contest success story (look out Sora)

Yeah but come on now a doubling? Peach was doubled by Tifa. That would take a world of difference for that to happen for Gordon. That'd put him in near elite status wouldn't it?

Fourpack of Doom you mean - remember, this match will take place 12-21-12.

And ironically, DK had like the most consistent performance ever against Vivi.

With crap votals and Peach potentially deboosted, Gordon could feasibly do the doubling without an insane increase in strength. Hell, he could double Peach and still lose to Tifa.

Lieutenant Kettch | Posted 1/25/2010 9:44:51 PM | message detail
Yeah, disregarding the Samus match, Tifa has never looked weak. Beat Luigi and 43.6% on Sonic pre-Advent Children. Female bracket. Didn't have the nominations in 2k7 and was grouped with Sephiroth twice in 2k8. We don't have a great read on her, but I'd lean on the stronger than we've seen side of things rather than weaker.

KrahenProphet and Nintendo cleaned me out in the Guru Contest.
creativename | Posted 1/25/2010 9:45:24 PM | message detail
I wouldn't be all that surprised if Gordon has super-boosted. Again.

I expect around 40-45%ish against Tifa for him. He should break 40%. And an upset isn't entirely out of the question, although that would surprise me.

MM probably falls to 37% or so percent, but that still looks amazing compared to his past performances.

I'd wager Freeman ends up closer to Peach than he does to Tifa, honestly.

Arthas should be stronger than Thrall, and even Thrall looks like he could potentially take Kefka. So that's not looking too good for Kefka, unless he's boosted due to Dissidia.

Wow. Thrall taking Kefka. That sounds so wrong. (...and yet, somehow, so right)

Well if Cid can bring this up to the higher 30's that would put him in Aeris' range at least; which isn't truly shocking anymore.

Yeah when I saw the pic I was really tempted to raise my Oracle by a couple points. He looks like a dark blotch. The same exact picture with a lighter background would've been much better. I don't really know what Bacon was thinking here.

...oh wait a minute. This is the same dude who made the Jenova division. Bacon loathing FF7 supporting cast re-confirmed.
