Dante is owning in Europe and Asia. I expect this to go down a lot from now, when the ASV rolls in.

Damnit i was going to raise my Dante prediction in the Oracle until i saw everyone going low 60's on him. Oh well 66.67% will still be better than most everyone else's from what i saw.

The flinch in your eye
Calls you a bluff
Feel free to drown when you have enough

Useless cause is breaking your back
Your life will end when you attack
Make your move, Make your stance
Make the win
Heh, like you can.

See the war
See me rule
See the mirror
You'll see a fool

To take me out you most fight like a man, To take me out you most fight like a man
You've yet to prove that you can, You've yet to prove that you can!
So you might be compared to something, So you might be compared to something
That is something is nothing, that is something is nothing

Time to figure
Time to sin
Your time is done
When you begin

Live for suffer
Live for revenge
Now your life comes to an end

Taste the blood, taste your fate
Swallow your pride with your hate

Your last breath, Your last stance
The last of all with your command

Knees in the blood with your crying pleas
Wait in your sorrow, bathe in the fear
Clear the mind of the righteousness of it
Witness the moment of failure prosper!!

Ok Axel slowly bringing Dante down to reasonable levels.

...reasonable being approaching 70%, of course.

Another thing Bayonetta > DMC3 on. I mean, did they have to do the same damn battle song for 90% of the battles in DMC3? So irritating.

Same as me. I intended to raise my prediction to line up more with xstats and then saw everyone was going really low so I dropped it instead.

Ouch, that sux bro. I've done that before too, which is why i decided to go for the middle ground and neither raise nor lower my prediction. I've really got to try and just ignore what everyone else is predicting though, unless they present some factor i hadn't considered in their reasoning.

I don't think this says anything about Sora. Axel's a lot more likely to take a big drop than Sora is, I think.

After School Votes. When the children come home. This noteably gives an advantage to most nintendo characters and Kingdom Hearts as well cause of disney.

PartOfYourWorld | Posted 2/8/2010 9:21:57 AM | message detail
Lol indeed. I've lost a lot of my confidence, but what worries me now is Sora > Bowser/Charizard. Many people thought he looked underwhelming against Midna. I didn't really buy it at the time, but this doesn't exactly help.

Then again, maybe Axel just tanked after 2007 (he didn't make 2008, right?), and maybe Dante is one of those perfect characters to just pound the crap out of him. They do look pretty similar.

Yeah, I was thinking that these might be the kind of characters who appeal to the same type of fan.

Or maybe everyone started disliking Axel when he became a pansy.

I don't think there's much overlap between Dante and Axel. They don't strike me as having that sort of appeal. The pic being so favorable to Dante could have something to do with it if you believe that sort of thing. The more likely thing in my mind is that Axel has just gotten weaker.

KH exclusives: Sora, Riku, Kairi, Axel, Roxas
Characters who got in after being in KH: Uhhh...Cid Highwind, but I doubt KH was the reason.

Kratos would probably hold up better than you think. He'd be a better opponent for Dante than, say, Hayabusa. But yeah, that wouldn't be too close a match.

Yeah, we've seen the other 3 KH characters before pretty much as expected. Axel just had 358/2 Days and beat out healthy competition in the vote-ins, so why would he be that different?

This is more Dante then Axel. Ryu is gonna get wrecked next round, probably.

I'm not all that convinced that Axel would beat Balthier by very much, actually. I think he would certainly win, but not in any kind of blowout.
