Man,
why do we have so many damn Tails characters in these things? Can't
even Seifer in these damn things and yet Lloyd Irving keeps getting in
here >_> --- Currently 17th on the CBVIII Leaderboard ^_^ Current Pick: Gaming's most generic "badass" ;_; |

Hmm. Maybe Sackboy>Vault Boy after all. Probably not, but he won't be too far off. --- Board 8 BOP: http://www.freewebs.com/charmander6000/CB8%20BOP.xls Character Battle VIII - 36/44 - Today's Winners: Leon and Sackboy |

Lloyd would probably beat Seifer. There's a reason he never gets in. --- KrahenProphet lived up to his name. |
LeonhartFour | Posted 2/7/2010 11:17:23 AM | message detail |
Eh,
I really don't have a problem with Lloyd or Kratos being in these
contests. They're high enough fodder to be somewhat interesting at
times (but still foddery enough to make you feel stupid for picking
them, like today). With 128 characters, having someone of their
strength is pretty much inevitable. --- "I can set you free, mate." "My freedom was forfeit long ago!" |

Just be happy that Jade Curtiss was stopped by the vote-ins. --- Board 8 BOP: http://www.freewebs.com/charmander6000/CB8%20BOP.xls Character Battle VIII - 36/44 - Today's Winners: Leon and Sackboy |

From: KamikazePotato | #455 I blame KH. You make whiny, sulky Squall into badass Leon, but Seifer turns into a jobber :/ --- holy crap, you used an apostrophe to make a word plural at least 3 times in that post. that's like cryptonite to me if I was batman - Bako Ikporamee |

Kingdom Hearts Squall is basically disc 3 Squall. He's not any different. --- "Stay with me until the end. Please." "Not until the end. Always." |
KamikazePotato | Posted 2/7/2010 11:20:01 AM | message detail |
Yeah,
no one should feel offended by Lloyd or Kratos getting in. Jade
Curtiss, yeah, but thankfully his total of 100 people who nominate and
vote for him wasn't enough this year. --- KrahenProphet lived up to his name. |

He's not falling over himself for Rinoa aka one of the worst VG characters ever in KH, so thats a big plus. --- holy crap, you used an apostrophe to make a word plural at least 3 times in that post. that's like cryptonite to me if I was batman - Bako Ikporamee |

I will grudgingly concede that Guybrush making it in this year is somewhat reasonable due to his new releases, but the fact that he has made more contests than Tifa and as many as Aeris is nauseating --- "You've got a ramen doctor at your secret ramen base?"--Neku Sakuraba Yesmar |

Man,
do we even need to 'cut fodder' that badly? It's not like we have a
long list of new blood that needs to get in. There's Bayonetta,
Gilgamesh, Lightning after FF13...Blastoise? --- KrahenProphet lived up to his name. |

We should have Solid Sackboy for next round against Leon. http://ui20.gamespot.com/595/oldsackcover_2.jpg --- Board 8 BOP: http://www.freewebs.com/charmander6000/CB8%20BOP.xls Character Battle VIII - 36/44 - Today's Winners: Leon and Sackboy |

Not
with 128 character brackets, no. But frankly, I think I prefer 64
character brackets. Even with 2 matches a day, we have a ton of boring
round 1 matches this year. Either way, if I were Bacon I'd just
auto-seed the Noble Nine into the contest. That would solve a lot of
the problems with the FFVII characters I think, who'd no longer have to
compete for noms with Cloud and Sephiroth. --- 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.... |

Chun-Li and Pac-Man are the only ones from that list we need to see as far as returning regulars. --- "I couldn't stand a day without a past or future. I need to live each moment to keep fighting here and now." |

64-character bracket would be horrendous. --- KrahenProphet lived up to his name. |

Unfortunately,
I don't think Claire should be brought back until her industry-defining
starring role in Resident Evil 6. She lost to Kairi four years ago and
hasn't gotten anything of note since then, so watching her get killed
would make my face cry. --- Yoblazer: http://i43.tinypic.com/25z1non.jpg Watch and you'll see... someday I'll be... part of your world! |

We don't need to see any of those guys again. Or, in Seifer's case, ever. Every single one of those guys (except for Morrigan and Aya) would have been given a shot to take down C. Falcon. How would that not have made the contest better? --- "You've got a ramen doctor at your secret ramen base?"--Neku Sakuraba Yesmar |

I wouldn't take any of those guys over Falcon. Maybe Chun-Li. --- KrahenProphet lived up to his name. |
Lightslayer987 | Posted 2/7/2010 11:29:38 AM | message detail |
From: KamikazePotato | #478 Yeah, that is just unacceptable now. We've gotten too used to 128, that way too many contest regs would be snubbed and it would just not really feel right, to me. --- http://i48.tinypic.com/2wmghtl.jpg Albion Hero is the Cream of Loli Fanboyism |

From: ZFS | #477 You would be. I shudder to think how weak a non-SFII Street Fighter character would be in these things. Depending on how Ryu does, though, we might try to give Chun-Li another crack at this thing. The Ryu/Chun have had three new games since the last Character Battle, and after watching the three RE5 guys in action, I'm starting to get this crazy feeling that Ken's performance may have actually been good. --- Yoblazer: http://i43.tinypic.com/25z1non.jpg Watch and you'll see... someday I'll be... part of your world! |

I would take Chun over Falcon no problem, but then I don't have the respect for Falcon that some people around here seem to. --- wheresoever you go, go with all your heart |
LOLContests | Posted 2/7/2010 11:31:30 AM | message detail |
Seems like 2 new blood to me, as long as you're talking about the right Morrigan! I meant Morrigan Aenslad, but any Dragon Age characters would be welcome as well as far as I'm concerned. --- "You've got a ramen doctor at your secret ramen base?"--Neku Sakuraba Yesmar |

Lightning Strikes | Posted 2/7/2010 11:33:24 AM | message detail |
Honestly
of all the guys who should be cut, Kratos is one of the last guys to
pick and Lloyd actually definitely deserves to stay. He got royally
placement screwed this year, but actually has potential to win
sometimes. Lara Croft Morrigan Aya Brea Seifer Diablo Claire Pac-Man Nightmare Chun-Li Eh NO. She impressed in 2002 but would be super-fodder now See above Sure Eh Eh Legacy wise is worth it but is the biggest flop in contest history Sure Duh Yeah, only a handful of those are definitely worth getting in. Other than those few you've got high-end fodder, just like the ToS cast, but with a much less devoted fanbase, or even worse, the likes of Morrigan and Aya Brea who absolutely don't deserve it and would bomb if they got in. |

Diablo's worth a shot, especially once Diablo III comes out (if ever). Nightmare, ehhhh, he's decent. --- "I can set you free, mate." "My freedom was forfeit long ago!" |
