Eh,
I called for an FFVII drop during the Games Contest after seeing its
day vote tank. That indicates something changed about the fanbase here,
and a day vote getting worse has always been associated with strength
dropping before. Was hoping it'd be very minor, just a percent or two.
Probably shouldn't draw too much from this match though. --- 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.... |

You
know, this result makes a lot more sense if we assume that 4-ways
helped the FF7 Crew. The playrate for that game is decreasing every
year. --- KrahenProphet lived up to his name. |

The playrate for that game is decreasing every year. And OoT's playrate still dropped when that poll was re-run last year, which is weird. --- Luster Soldier --- ~Shield Bearer~ | ~Data Analyst~ Popular at school, but not as cool as KrahenProphet, Guru Champ! |

Well, what are you drawing from it then? If Cloud gets around 73%, it'll be no worse compared to expectations than Link did against Thrall. --- 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 2/4/2010 9:25:34 PM | message detail |
From: MyWorldIsCrono | #068 Yeah, Zack's the only one who's done well so far, but he was facing Yuna. We won't get any sort of read from Auron against Aerith. I dunno what kind of expectations Squall has against Akuma. Well, Tidus did okay all things considered, but he still lost. Jecht was unimpressive against Phoenix even though he won. --- "I can set you free, mate." "My freedom was forfeit long ago!" |

Marth
would probably end up better in a day match, but start out better at
night. Melee has the best board vote there is, other than stuff like
Phoenix Wright. --- 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.... |

Isn't Sephy's board vote even worse than Cloud's? Against what is essentially a Melee character? Could get ugly. --- KrahenProphet lived up to his name. |
PartOfYourWorld | Posted 2/4/2010 9:28:11 PM | message detail |
This is hilarious and all, but let's try to get realistic for a moment... This is the first time we've seen Ridley since Brawl, which is easily the biggest game he's ever been in. I know Brawl is a multiplayer game first, but I'm guessing most people at least played the SSE far enough to see Ridley. He's gotta be stronger than Thrall these days. You combine that with the anti-votes the obvious winners have already seen coupled with the anti-votes FFVII has always gotten, and this won't be too outside the realm of what some people were expecting if Cloud pushes to 70%+. I had Cloud at a tripling and kinda wanted to go lower, and I saw at least a few Oracle picks in the low 70s. --- Yoblazer: http://i38.tinypic.com/2s024p4.jpg Watch and you'll see... someday I'll be... part of your world! |

Seriously,
what? It's the first 25 minutes of a round 1 blowout match. Are we
supposed to conclude that Sephiroth is doomed against Snake or
something? Obviously it looks bad. It's not the least bit conclusive. --- 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.... |

KamikazePotato | Posted 2/4/2010 9:28:51 PM | message detail |
From: UltimaterializerX | #077 Even factoring how much he'll gain from here, Cloud needs to be about 5% higher than he currently is to meet expectations. --- KrahenProphet lived up to his name. |
LeonhartFour | Posted 2/4/2010 9:29:09 PM | message detail |
From: UltimaterializerX | #077 Not usually this bad. Ridley should realistically be getting tripled, not doubled, based on the last time we saw him. Cloud probably won't even get that high. --- "I can set you free, mate." "My freedom was forfeit long ago!" |
MyWorldIsCrono | Posted 2/4/2010 9:29:46 PM | message detail |
From: LeonhartFour | #084 According to lol xstats, Cloud would get 84% on him in 2007. --- http://i48.tinypic.com/2wmghtl.jpg Albion Hero is the Cream of Loli Fanboyism |

Holy ****ing ****. Dissidia deboost? All of a sudden, all those Snake > Sephiroth pickers don't seem that crazy! And **** escaping the tripling, Guybrush is now going to avoid the doubling against Vincent! If Marth breaks 40% on Sephiroth, I'm all on the "Guybrush breaks 40% on Vincent" train! This will be Guybrush's year. --- Not Wylvane |
red sox 777 | Posted 2/4/2010 9:30:45 PM | message detail |
See,
the thing that makes this performance only bad instead of awful is that
Link also missed expectations by 5-6%......in the 80s too. --- 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.... |

Can Marth lead for the first 5 minutes against Seph? That'd be amazing. --- Demyx is better than Axel. |

From: MyWorldIsCrono | #085 Yeah, but I'm not even sure how those numbers were determined. I wouldn't trust them too much. Still, Leon Kennedy doubled Ridley. Cloud should be way outdoin' this. --- "I can set you free, mate." "My freedom was forfeit long ago!" |

From: MyWorldIsCrono | Posted: 2/5/2010 12:29:46 AM | #085 Oh my GOD with the fourway stats. Leon's stats are by far the best, because he made a ton of 1v1 adjustments. And even then, some of the results are laughably stupid (not his fault by any means). 4ways are the most unreliable crap ever. --- I'll attract the enemy with my *human* call....

MyWorldIsCrono | Posted 2/4/2010 9:32:13 PM | message detail |
From: red sox 777 | #087 theres only so bad you can look from still hititng about 80%. The fact that fodder is doing this well against Cloud should bring up worries about how much this guy can be anti voted. There is no way that Ridley is worth anything more then 20% on Cloud at best not facting in anti votes, so that can be 10% of anti votes against Cloud in a given match. Thats seriously something to worry about in close matches. --- http://i48.tinypic.com/2wmghtl.jpg Albion Hero is the Cream of Loli Fanboyism |

PartOfYourWorld | Posted 2/4/2010 9:32:48 PM | message detail |
From: LeonhartFour | #084 A tripling would be a good performance (although I doubt anyone thinks he can obtain that now). The last time we saw Ridley was before Ridley got Brawl. He should be stronger than Thrall now, and Cloud has always been more anti-voted than Link (in addition to being a clear notch weaker in the first place). Man, why didn't I go lower for my Oracle. I was thinking about all of this! --- Yoblazer: http://i38.tinypic.com/2s024p4.jpg Watch and you'll see... someday I'll be... part of your world! |

This
is like the third time in a row I've predicted a big win in the Oracle
and lost. So naturally when I take Vincent to fail to triple Guybrush
he's going to get the blowout of the contest. --- 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.... |
