And Yoshi/Crono occurs on a weekday, which means Yoshi gets an ASV. Bowser got one against Frog, too. If Yoshi/Crono goes the same way, Crono won't have much to worry about. --- "Hold on a minute!

Yoshi
vs Crono could be great if Yoshi is at similar 1 on 1 strength to 2k6..
Imagine if he improved. The fact that it's an afternoon match makes it
worse.. http://www.gamefaqs.com/poll/index.html?poll=2551 nearly 43% on Snake in 2k6 is no easy task.. MM hit 44% on Snake, Sonic hit 45.. We know Crono lost to Sonic, so they were only a couple % off if we compare that year. Could it happen O_O? --- Nominate Red XIII for the Character Battle VII!

I cannot help but be reminded of Luigi/KOS-MOS by this match and the stats reaction. Yup, that and Tifa/Vyse. I must not think of such things though. Being overconfident is just asking for Crono to let me down again. --- 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.... |

The board vote in an obvious blowout almost always goes to the underdog. Hey, Mario, Luigi, Yoshi, and Bowser all looked good so far this contest. Mario Bros. Wii boost? Makes as much sense as any Dissidia effect whatsoever! |

nearly 43% on Snake in 2k6 is no easy task Sprite round. 2006 Yoshi > 2006 Squall according to that year's stats. http://www.gamefaqs.com/poll/index.html?poll=3265 Whoops --- "The great GF...Bahamut." "...GF? I...? Using my powers...It is you humans...I fear..." |

I cannot help but be reminded of Luigi/KOS-MOS by this match and the stats reaction. ??? people thought Luigi would get under 55% against KOS-MOS. Though had Tifa not just put up Cloud-like numbers on Vyse the Luigi > Tifa train would have started right there. --- Board 8 BOP: http://www.freewebs.com/charmander6000/CB8%20BOP.xls Character Battle VIII - 48/58 - Today's Winners: Yoshi and Crono |

As
much as I love Yoshi, he's not equal to Crono. Both Yoshi and Jak are
casual characters known and liked by everyone.. except Yoshi is MUCH
more loved so what reason would someone have to vote for Jak besides
possible Sony fanboyism? --- CBVIII: 51/56 - 51 pts, tied for 82nd - L: Ocelot, Liquid, Phoenix, Kratos A, Revan Day Pick: Vincent Valentine - Night Pick: LUEshi |

God
I really wish I had Yoshi > Crono right now. Not because I think
it'll happen, but because I want Yoshi to win and nothing hurts my
bracketing heart more than to bet against the character I want to win
and be wrong. I want to go vote Yoshi, watch him be at 60% at 15
seconds, and go "Oh yeah I called that GO YOSHI!" instead of "HA HA
**** MY BRACKET GO YOSHI!" --- http://i259.photobucket.com/albums/hh293/zukiraphaera/war-sig-1.png |

Yoshi and Bowser are overrated. Actually, now that I think about it, pretty much every Mario character is mediocre other than Mario and Luigi themselves. Luckily, both are more than badass enough to make up for the supporting cast. --- Not Wylvane |

Mario
is a character I genuinely like. He's noble, heroic, and never backs
down from a challenge. Where other heroes would hesitate, Mario just
jumps on ahead and overcomes any obstacle in his way. Luigi's my #1
favorite character overall, but Mario is my #2. --- Not Wylvane |

There's a reason ****ing everybody in the Mushroom Kingdom worships Mario and treat him like he's a god. Even his enemies take one look at him and go, "OH **** IT'S ****ING MARIO" and either get their asses owned by him or simply run away in fear. Nobody likes ****ing with Mario. --- Not Wylvane |
