Character Battle VIII - 32/40 - Today's Winners: Cloud and Chris
HaRRicH | Posted 2/5/2010 10:39:30 AM | message detail
Well, I'm not sure what we can figure out from today's match. Jill still beats Chris -- I'll take ~67% on Niko over ~71% on MacMillan. Swamp Thing's still crap. Wesker impressed me more by competing with Ken, though this is still nice. It's hard to tell what Chris'll do against Cloud; I'd take Redfield > Ridley pre-RE5 before today, but I'll have to see it to believe it now that Ridley's done so well.

Meh...we'll find out more next round, I guess.

Unless these anti-votes haunt Link and Cloud throughout the contest, Chris shouldn't feel bad if he "merely" matches Ridley's performance. If Cloud gets that picture GANON made for him, even he might be tough to anti-vote.

Leon > Jill > Chris > Wesker until further notice IMO.

Keeping a constant MacMillan Chris is expected to get about 41% on Leon. Seems a bit low IMO.

What's with all of these low ball predictions for Captain Falcon?

I see people predicting low to mid 60s, I even saw a few below 60%

Did Wander triple in strength or something?

Wander's a fourway-only character. I'd agree that Cap's getting lowballed, but people are paying less and less attention to those stats.

You don't need stats to know that Wander is one of the weakest characters in the bracket.

Wander is so bad that there's nothing Falcon can do to improve what people think of him. Falcon could triple Wander and everyone would just go "Wander, you ****ing suck".

I ask this after seeing Wander beat Guybrush on Gamespot with 53.5% before getting tripled by Ryu.

I dont understand why people expect wander to be so pathetically weak. He's from a very well respected game. Its not like he's some eddie riggs or something. and not to mention SotC beat Gears last year with no problems...

Wander is like a perfect storm of awful in these contests. He's from a relatively cult game, he has an unremarkable characters design (which in turn leads to unremarkable picture), and half the people who played SotC probably don't even know he's called Wander.

The original plans for Cloud and Tifa's moment under the Highwind were far more suggestive than the final product. Following a fade-out scene, Cloud was to walk out of the chocobo stable on board the Highwind, followed by Tifa who would check around as she left. This idea was rejected for being too "extreme", and a less risque "toned down" version of the scene replaced it.

This match makes me even more convinced Soap will be picture-dependent. He probably wins his round 1 match (and likely the fourpack) if he gets a helmet picture.

What does this match have to do with match pics? Captain MacMillan is acting like the fodder he is. It's not like his pic last year was any good anyways.
