I'll
take Charizard over Luigi/Bowser/Yoshi. Might have done it before the
contest (I did take him over Kratos and Kratos is probably right around
their level). After this, I think I'll take Charizard over Kirby,
Zelda, and Ganon too assuming he ends at 62-63%. For non-elite Nintendo
characters, that leaves Pikachu and 62-63% here would be stronger than
anything Pikachu has ever done, and as long as Charizard is of
comparable strength Pikachu shouldn't be able to win get any weird SFF
on him. So yeah, everyone but Link, Mario, and Samus then. (And Sheik!) --- 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.... |

From: Team Rocket Elite | #145 I just checked, and it looks like Sora gets Charizard in the day. Sora gets Charizard in the day on the day of HeartGold/SoulSilver's release in the US. Add to that whatever 5th gen hype that pops up from here until their match. ****ING AWESOME --- I love this bracket. |

In
fact my LOL 4-WAY XSTATS have Frog a decent bit ahead of Duke, and they
predicted Bowser/Frog almost perfectly (I was .02% away from a perfect
Oracle). --- "The great GF...Bahamut." "...GF? I...? Using my powers...It is you humans...I fear..." |

Would
you take Frog over Gordon Freeman? Even in 2006, before Orange Box,
Gordon already got 36% on Sora, and Sora got 45% on Megaman 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.... |
LeonhartFour | Posted 1/30/2010 9:54:03 PM | message detail |
Although
for the record, 65% on last year's Duke puts Charizard in the
Sonic/Dante range (but still below Luigi because LOL Sonic). --- "I can set you free, mate." "My freedom was forfeit long ago!" |

From: MyWorldIsCrono | #169 Being in between Marth and Kefka isn't strong though. But the main thing is let's just wait to see where Charizard ends up at the end.

Fact is, both Frog and Duke are fodder line/low mid card. So if Zard outdoes what Bowser did on Frog, thats damn impressive. --- http://i47.tinypic.com/28gtj5g.jpg Albion Hero is the Cream of Loli Fanboyism |

Yeah, he's not either, but I think you people think too highly of Duke. The dude got whipped by Marth. Not to mention the fact that he barely best Gordon Freeman and pre-Brawl Ike before inexplicably collapsing the round after. I have no idea why people think Duke's strong, but the fact of the matter is he just isn't. --- "Here I go! Divine judgment for an evil soul! Sacred Penance!

red sox 777 | Posted 1/30/2010 9:57:48 PM | message detail |
No, but I wouldn't take Duke over him either. But he actually beat Gordon. As for Marth, I'm willing to chalk up the margin of his loss to DK in 2007 to SFF. DK would beat Frog pretty easily, sadly. --- 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.... |

Do
you want to believe that Arthas is weak in a 1v1 setting, or do you
want to believe that Kefka is much stronger this year than last year,
or some combination of the two? Gotta pick one -- and in any case, it's
not cough worthy! --- wheresoever you go, go with all your heart |

Last Place Factored. It doesn't change the fact that he beat Gordon the previous round, and Gordon was already no joke in 2006. The real reason I'd rank Charizard so high after this match is Zack. If he beats Zack's mark, with a night match and against a good picture for Duke no less, then I'll take Charizard over any character I'd take Zack over- which these days is all the Nintendo characters but the top 3. --- 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.... |

Duke
might have dropped this year, but he was definitely decent in 2008, and
if you think otherwise you have to assume that Altair either boosted a
ton this year, or Liquid dropped a lot in order to make him not look
good, since he did beat Altair twice. --- "Our job is to find truth, no matter how painful it may be."--Miles Edgeworth Yesmar |
