Is this a joke post. Please tell me this is a joke post and you're just trolling Leon. I'm... not seeing the problem here. There's a blatant Kingdom Hearts/Nintendo overlap. It's not much, but it's there. And Sora was got over 48% on Squall anyway so my post makes perfect sense. |

Man,
if Sora couldn't beat Squall with Cloud in the poll (Squall's absolute
worst opponent and undoubtedly worse for Squall than for Sora), he's
not beating Squall, period. Not before KHIII. --- "I can set you free, mate." "My freedom was forfeit long ago!" |

Let's
not use outdated stats now. The newer ones contradict them so we really
can't use them anymore. Unless you think Yoshi and Fox SFF'd Squall. |

Let's not use outdated stats now. Squall/Sora/Cloud/Mewtwo is the most recent match they had! Unless you're talking about the Squall/Sora/Sonic/Sub-Zero match, in which case I must ask: What changed from then to now to make Sora > Squall? --- "Spoil it for me.

All
in all, this is a good show for both characters. Ken is probably going
to avoid the doubling, and Ganondorf isn't embarrassing himself in
spite of his Elevator Ganon picture. I just wish I wasn't busy during
the ASV - that'll be entertaining, that's for sure! --- Chop Chop Master Onion for Character Battle '11! Kick, punch, it's all in the mind! |

In
both of those matches last year, Sora would have beaten Squall if he
wasn't mysteriously weak in the UK. More importantly, if you remove
Yoshi and Fox or Mewtwo, he probably would have won. One on one, Squall
wouldn't break 51% on Sora if he did win. Squall still wins both those matches if you take out the UK,with 50.99% with Fox/Yoshi and 50.22% with Cloud/Mewtwo. --- Sux. |

Kingdom
Hearts and Nintendo have very similar patterns and have similar
audiences among the voters. There's bound to be some overlap. You don't
need to have solid ties to share an audience-I thought we'd all
realised that. Nothing huge, but enough to give Sora an extra 1% on
Squall. Also Leonheart you assume Cloud would hurt Squall significantly more than he would Sora(including whatever damage Mewtwo does) which really doesn't have much justification behind it, and considering the consistency between rounds, likely isn't the case. |

Kingdom Hearts and Nintendo have very similar patterns and have similar audiences among the voters. That's because they're both more popular in America than everywhere else. Also Leonheart you assume Cloud would hurt Squall significantly more than he would Sora(including whatever damage Mewtwo does) which really doesn't have much justification behind it, and considering the consistency between rounds, likely isn't the case. So Mewtwo LFF'd Sora just as hard as Fox + Yoshi did then? I don't buy that. The consistency between rounds would be more proof that there was no overlap between Sora and Nintendo in the first place. --- "So cold. I am always by your side."

A
Kingdom Hearts/Nintendo overlap makes even less sense than this idiotic
CT/Castlevania overlap people keep harping about. Squall certainly
didn't get his huge boost in 2003 from a GBA game! I doubt the GBA or
DS games are what keeps him in the same area as Vincent and Crono! I
doubt Sora was held back by ****ing Yoshi when the two have nothing in
common. Why do we keep getting consecutively dumber people? First there was Tsunami, then Eternal, and now this guy. --- Not Wylvane |

Leonheart you assume Cloud would hurt Squall significantly more than he

have much justification behind it, and considering the consistency

I'd take Ken over Akuma. I really don't think Squall could hit 55% on Ganondorf. --- Nominate Red XIII for the Character Battle VII! He's the Lion with a fire tail from Final Fantasy VII. |

Kingdom
Hearts and Nintendo have very similar patterns and have similar
audiences among the voters. There's bound to be some overlap. Everything has overlap. You need to show proof that the overlap actually leads to SFF or LFF. I'm not sure I'd even agree with the "similar audiences" considering Kingdom Hearts is primarily a Playstation series. Similar trends is not a strong enough connection to claim SFF or LFF will defintely occur. You don't need to have solid ties to share an audience-I thought we'd all realised that. Those are the exceptions not the rules. In almost every case, you need a pretty strong connection. --- Every night will have a day. Even forever has to come to an end. 2/14/2010 24:00 EST |

What if Ken 55-45s Akuma indirectly. Preposterous. I won't even dignify things that suggest Squall = Ganondorf with a response beyond this! --- "I couldn't stand a day without a past or future. I need to live each moment to keep fighting here and now." |

It's
difficult providing examples of something which has very little data
for or against it, and is only slight in the first place. So Mewtwo LFF'd Sora just as hard as Fox + Yoshi did then? I don't buy that. The consistency between rounds would be more proof that there was no overlap between Sora and Nintendo in the first place. Mewtwo got about 55% of Yoshi's and Fox's total, and Sora increased on Squall by about 0.4%. If we assume consistency and remove Mewtwo, Sora puts up 49% on Squall, and that's assuming he doesn't get more from Mewtwo. Either way I think we both agree that 51% on Sora doesn't reflect to well on Squall. Those calculations were rough though because I rushed them, for now I must go. |

LeonhartFour | Posted 2/19/2010 10:11:18 AM | message detail |
So
Mewtwo LFF'd Sora MORE than Fox and Yoshi combined then? That seems
even harder to believe since Yoshi is likely stronger than Mewtwo. And I already said I think pretty highly of Sora's strength, more than most. Squall getting 52%~ on Sora isn't that bad to me. --- "I couldn't stand a day without a past or future. I need to live each moment to keep fighting here and now." |

Squall hitting 52% on Sora seems the range I'd place it. Sora did get 45.5% on MM afterall. Can't go much higher for Squall. --- Nominate Red XIII for the Character Battle VII! He's the Lion with a fire tail from Final Fantasy VII. |

From
what I've seen no they don't greatly side with Square. It's much more
balanced than when looking at either NA or Asia. It's not only that,
but even non nintendo/square companies do a hell of a lot better. --- Nominate Red XIII for the Character Battle VII! He's the Lion with a fire tail from Final Fantasy VII. |
