I don't get it. Is this a RE5-reference or trying to say Swamp Thing fits Africa somehow or...

...I mean, I dunno. I probably shouldn't ask either!

RE5 takes place in Africa, and Chris and the (black) locals don't get along terribly well.

RE5 had quite a bit of controversy among black people cuz Chris goes and kills tons of black people in Africa in RE5.

Well, its just the entire game of RE5 is big white man Chris going to African and shooting crazy black people the entire game.

but again, Jill lost in Africa too! Maybe Africa just hates all RE characters now.

So I made a couple match pics for rounds 2 and 3, are they any good?

http://i10.photobucket.com/albums/a135/Kracko/CharizardMatchPic2.jpg

^Head shot for Round 2 using the artwork from his original Base Set trading card. Somebody in a previous topic was talking about how he should use that picture in a match.

http://i10.photobucket.com/albums/a135/Kracko/MatchPicCharizard.png

Sprite Round picture for Charizard assuming he beats Kratos. I'm really proud of this one. It's going for the old-school vote as most of the voters seem to prefer gen 1 over everything else. You look at that picture and you remember YOUR Charizard, the one with Flamethrower/Fire Blast/Fire Spin/Fly as its moveset. You remember and then you cry a little and then you vote.

Here's a Kirby one I threw together, kind of "ehh" but I submitted it anyway. >_>

This picture is awesome. I think the sprites should be a bit bigger but I'm not sure if that would wreck the picture.

I had Flamthrower and Fireblast but I didnt have Fire Spin and Fly.

Probably because I already knew Fire Spin was a PoS and you couldnt teach 'Zard fly till Yellow.

Sackboy vs. Kratos is without a doubt one of the best match pics ever.

so far all my changes have made me crash and burn, I originally had sackboy winning this one, but switched, so sackboy is winning for sure.

TheCodeisBosco | Posted 2/5/2010 2:06:07 PM | message detail
As someone who has Sackboy winning in his bracket, I don't think you should be worried. Kratos has a huge picture advantage in my opinion - the Sackboy picture doesn't represent him well at all! He looks evil in that picture, with the red glow, creepy smile, etc. Kratos, on the other hand, looks way better here than in previous match pictures.

But I thought Fawful had a big picture advantage over GlaDOS, so what do I know?

There are actually are, but they're scarce and a pain to cut out from their background. Thinking back on it, I originally made a great Wander pic that I didn't know wasn't eligible at the time due to it being zoomed in on his face. I think the pics topic just sort of forgot about him after that.

Man, Sackboy totally has a "Today...I...shall...take over...The World! BWAHAHAHAHAHAHA!" air in spite of the cuteness. It's got my vote, for sure.

And Vault Boy looks great there, with the wink and thumbs-up. He's gonna get fodderized, but he's gonna crash and burn...with style!

Only weird thing there is Riku. Doesn't he give anyone else a Dissidia vibe?

Which Aeris pic did HM make? And what's Zen's R2 pic? Considering the quality of the rest of the pics you mentioned, I'm curious about it now, Yo. :P

Did any of you make the Ryu picture that was just chosen? I was just curious, as it's one of the best match pictures I've seen so far. It's almost as good as The Duke's.

From: HaRRicH | #036
The problem is that Squall came really close to a hype-fueled Sonic. Auron beat a Sonic whose hype had come and gone. It's a very different situation.

That excuse doesn't work for Squall's second match with Sonic since Solid Snake was in the poll. It also looked like Sonic only benefited from the hype in R2 since Squall still almost beat Sonic despite Sora in their first match.


There was something weird about that round 3 match because that was the only time out of 4 matches when Squall beat Sora without any problems. Regardless, we've seen plenty of instances of FF and MGS affecting each other, and it's exceedingly obvious that Sonic received some sort of benefit from the Brawl announcement (He went from 55% on Sub-Zero to 65% on him between rounds 1 and 2, and he maintained that 65% in round 3 as well, so I don't think it was a one-round wonder. I don't know why it would be anyway. Snake blasted through an entire contest because of Brawl hype). Squall would've killed Sonic in 2007 if not for Brawl (unless you think Sub-Zero gets 45%+ on Squall that year). Thinking Snake takes away Sonic's Brawl hype is a mistake as well. You tried to make that argument for Meta Knight before, and I'm not sure why since he did just fine against other Smash characters anyway. I'm not really buying "Brawl hype LFF" there.

Snake took away Sonic's Brawl hype, but it's all good since he hurt Squall as well (how many times do they have to meet, again). Squall would've beaten Sonic in 2k7 straight up, and squelched him in 2k8.

...I still have Auron > Squall. I am pretty sure I am relying on rSFF the more I think about it :(
