Big Boss is gonna kill overnight, though. Wow, Mario went from around 59% in Europe earlier to barely losing to him right now. The percentages for Europe are pretty unstable right now. I would wait until at least the end of the first hour before looking at European percentages. --- Luster Soldier --- ~Shield Bearer~ | ~Data Analyst~ Popular at school, but not as cool as KrahenProphet, Guru Champ! |

I
feel a bit silly for predicting Big Boss to hit 42% after saying that
even as one of Mario's biggest detractors, I would be satisfied with
40%. Had to hope for Mario to underperform though! --- Missingno's quest to avenge Crono - Round 2: Yoshi |

From: LeonhartFour | #259 Snake and Big Boss are two different animals, and how BB performs with a Naked Snake pic proves it. Seph is going down. --- who needs a dick when you're good at smash brothers - stingers Now this is entertainment! |
Iamthekuzalol | Posted 2/20/2010 9:20:22 PM | message detail |
On the bright side, 35-36% on Mario would still put BB on a high-midcarder status which isn't too shabby. Was hoping 40% though. --- Snake's Mission "To make it to the finals for the fourth consecutive times" |

Zack won't beat Megaman. He'd probably have a close match with X. He'd beat Big Boss, and Kirby. --- Missingno's quest to avenge Crono - Round 2: Yoshi |

And
it looks like Edgey's gonna end up weaker than SFF'd Falco. Big Boss
would have to get nearly 40% before we get to Edgey > Falco --- "Why must we always choose between certain death and probable death?" "I'm in an epic battle to the death, FIGURE IT OUT YOURSELF!" |

The 45% hype should have been saved for Zack. Don't think he'll quite get that, but it should be close. --- wheresoever you go, go with all your heart |
Not_Wylvane | Posted 2/20/2010 9:24:26 PM | message detail |
It's
hilarious that in terms of which game/franchise dropped the most, Sonic
Team's no longer in contention. What seemed like weak performances may
actually be decent, between Tails impressing against Kratos and Shadow
losing to Ama, who then beasted on Luigi to make Shadow look decent.
Knuckles is a whole other story, and we'll have to wait and see how
Sonic does next round. --- Not Wylvane |

From: LeonhartFour | #283 Crono beat Mario by a sizable margin in his match. Throw MMX into the mix, I still say Crono would have won. Zack didn't win in that situation. Hence, no chance. --- who needs a dick when you're good at smash brothers - stingers Now this is entertainment! |

And Mega Man X = Mega Man, clearly! This is the main THRUST --- "The great GF...Bahamut." "...GF? I...? Using my powers...It is you humans...I fear..." |
LeonhartFour | Posted 2/20/2010 9:27:44 PM | message detail |
Crono probably still wins even if you throw X into that situation instead of Samus. But the point is that Crono had a better scenario than ZackFAQs did! And Crono probably doesn't beat Zack by that much. --- "The great GF...Bahamut." "...GF? I...? Using my powers...It is you humans...I fear..." |
Not_Wylvane | Posted 2/20/2010 9:28:14 PM | message detail |
I
think Zack will be lucky to break 40%. Mega Man hasn't really looked
that bad recently, and I think he's the strongest character outside the
top six and still a big step above Sonic and Crono as well as other
near-elites like Vincent and Squall. --- Not Wylvane |
KamikazePotato | Posted 2/20/2010 9:28:20 PM | message detail |
Mega
Man has always had overlap with Nintendo. Could Zack win if Samus
replaced him? Maybe, but it would be by a slim margin, and it doesn't
really change anything either way. --- KrahenProphet lived up to his name. |

You people and your ZackFAQs doubting! You'll see! --- "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!" |
ZFS | Posted 2/20/2010 9:29:01 PM | message detail |
Yeah,
Crono would probably beat Zack by about the same amount Mega Man does.
Those two should still have around the same popularity. --- wheresoever you go, go with all your heart |
Not_Wylvane | Posted 2/20/2010 9:30:26 PM | message detail |
2008 Crono beat Vincent, who I'd pick to crush Zack before SFF is factored in. Zack is strong, but you guys are starting to do the same **** you were doing a few hours ago for this match. Mega Man is not Sonic. --- Not Wylvane |

From: LeonhartFour | #290 Mario vs. Crono in a triple LFF match: 43.6% Mario vs. Zack in a triple LFF match: 51% --- KrahenProphet lived up to his name. |
red sox 777 | Posted 2/20/2010 9:31:26 PM | message detail |
He
probably does a bit better, meaning he would win except that Mario
pulls out another clutch miracle. Or maybe he'd do better by enough to
win, but he 'aint getting near Crono's 57% on Mario. Going through
Zack's 30% on Link and Vincent's performance on Link the previous year,
Zack gets about 46% on Crono/Vincent, and that's a comparison I've been
using since round 2 of 2008 (remember me saying Zack = Tifa and
everyone laughing?). Going from 49% to 53% on Mario by taking out MMX and replacing him with Samus is probably a pretty agressive prediction for the difference between them considering they were in last place and weren't draining all that many votes from the poll, but it's possible and lines up pretty well. Zack being in the 44-46% range on Crono/Vincent makes a lot of sense. --- Missingno's quest to avenge Crono - Round 2: Yoshi |
ZFS | Posted 2/20/2010 9:31:52 PM | message detail |
Well,
Zack isn't going to beat Mega Man, or even make it a close match, that
much is pretty clear. Getting in the low-to-mid 40s should happen,
though. Zack is a good ways above Cid. --- wheresoever you go, go with all your heart |
LeonhartFour | Posted 2/20/2010 9:32:11 PM | message detail |
From: KamikazePotato | #296 Yeah, it's not like Samus would LFF Mario worse than X would or anything. --- "Why must we always choose between certain death and probable death?" "I'm in an epic battle to the death, FIGURE IT OUT YOURSELF!" |
