I've got Revan winning with less than 55% because I'm a pansy who can't commit one way or the other. --- "Hold on a minute! That testimony stinks!" "Witness! You can't just say 'Hello' and expect us to get anywhere! I want you to testify!" |

I
was worried about the Revan > Terra pick until I saw him get Darth
Revan in his name and light saber in the picture. Not so worried now. --- "I learned in England not to deceive the referees" - Cristiano Ronaldo http://i50.tinypic.com/ohsr5j.jpg |

Even if we want to take this best, most recognizable Terra as being (super-optimistically)
at Kefka 2010's level or even a little above, I'd have no doubt in
Revan manhandling her. He should be a clear few tiers beyond HK-47, and
he's historically looked more impressive than Kefka has. <_< --- turnturnturn your brain in http://fc03.deviantart.com/fs14/f/2007/020/b/f/Ariel_by_lolita_art.jpg |

Revan being a tier or two above HK-47 is very, very possible. --- KrahenProphet lived up to his name. |
KamikazePotato | Posted 2/10/2010 3:08:28 PM | message detail |
But uh...yeah, pretty sure Revan gets a doubling there. Unlike Kefka, Terra sucked in Dissidia. --- KrahenProphet lived up to his name. |

How
has that new game weak character theory been proven? Ezio looks pretty
strong considering. If he beats Zelda, or even puts up a respectable
performance, the theory goes out the window. --- Curt - PSN - CPhoenixM I am the master of my fate; I am the captain of my soul. |

It's
possible for Darth Revan > HK-47, sure -- I'm not against that. It
seems unlikely that Revan's completely out of his league though
considering how HK-47 made it into the contest right after SW:KotOR
came out and several times afterward while Revan's just now getting
into a contest thanks to the NRT. I know nominations = strength, but
when a game first comes out you expect its fans to support their best
character most in nominations. They went to HK first, then came back
for more of him as far as nominations go. Don't bring up Sandal, either
-- Bioware rallied that scrub in. If he's really that strong, he shouldn't scare everybody with the fear of not having "Darth" or his weapon in his pictures when it comes to facing Terra. --- T E A M C H O C O L A T E http://img269.imageshack.us/img269/7355/64590879.png |

That's cause for *some* worry, sure, but it's the virtue of his specialness that will contribute so much to his strength to begin with.

I'm
gonna be mad if Auron beats her considerably worse than Squall and
people blame it on her name instead of giving Auron credit. Not that we could take such a comparison that seriously anyway since four-ways =/= one-on-one, but still! --- T E A M C H O C O L A T E http://img269.imageshack.us/img269/7355/64590879.png |

if
anything, this name should make her do better. she's been called Aeris
in one game out of like 10 she's appeared in due to a mistranslation.
Ever since 98 she's been Aerith in everything official. --- http://i48.tinypic.com/2wmghtl.jpg I Am Albion Hero! |

red sox 777 | Posted 2/10/2010 3:30:27 PM | message detail |
Anyway,
I hadn't thought about that.....perhaps I should raise my Auron
prediction a little bit. The issue here is that people like FFVII more
than the other games she's been in and I could see some people voting
against "Aerith" for that reason. --- 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.... |

know, I don't think any stats topic regulars have won a contest since

a victory. --- 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.... |

How has that new game weak character theory been proven? Ezio looks pretty strong considering. HAHAHAHAHA no.

To clarify for those that haven't played it, Revan is... MAJOR KOTOR SERIES SPOILERS ...the main character of Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic. END MAJOR SPOILERS The question of his popularity now that he's in won't stem so much from how popular he will be specifically (because he is), but rather the staying power of KOTOR itself. Though HK-47 has held up alright over the years, so I have pretty high expectations. --- turnturnturn your brain in http://fc03.deviantart.com/fs14/f/2007/020/b/f/Ariel_by_lolita_art.jpg |

why that spoiler is so major. It means nothing at all to me without
proper context. Never played it either, but from what I understand. SPOILERS The main character has amnesia or something, and joins the rebels in their fight against someone named Darth Revan.

PiGuy96 | Posted 2/10/2010 4:26:37 PM | message detail |
MAJOR KOTOR SPOILERS The main character has no idea that he/she was until very recently a rather evil Sith Lord; everybody thinks Revan disappeared (and/or was killed by Darth Malak, the bad guy). The reveal that the player is actually Revan is fairly momentous.

So Terra doesn't stand a change? If you believe old-school Final Fantasy has boosted from Dissidia she does. Also getting a green haired Terra picture is probably to her benefit. It'll also help if you don't believe that Darth Revan is some hidden mid mid-card that is going to 60/40 HK-47 with ease. --- Board 8 BOP: http://www.freewebs.com/charmander6000/CB8%20BOP.xls Character Battle VIII - 42/50 - Today's Winners: Pikachu and Ellis |
