This result makes Ike a decent mid-card (When compare to Luigi/Shadow) Same with Zidane. --- Board 8 BOP: http://www.freewebs.com/charmander6000/CB8%20BOP.xls Character Battle VIII - 65/80 - Today's Winners: Mario and Ike |

Squall
is just below the bottom of the NN, so close that he probably beats
Crono and Sonic outright and probably gets like 48% on Mega Man. --- "Like Darth Maul, the bastard child of Michael Flatley and Hellboy" -trancer1 |

It
still amazes me that Amatasterasu is actually a decent competitor in
these contests. A culty game and a name that noone can spell, I figured
she would be closer to Tales characters than to an FF lead (albeit a
lame and weak one) --- "Like Darth Maul, the bastard child of Michael Flatley and Hellboy" -trancer1 |

As
someone who has never played Okami, I couldn't remember how to spell
that name for the life of me. If you're a fan of the game, you probably
have it ingrained into your mind how to spell it. --- http://cache.gawkerassets.com/assets/images/9/2010/02/13twop_02.jpg Albion Hero is the Cream of Loli fanboyism |

Why
would Sonic be weaker than Mega Man? If Squall can beat Sonic he can
beat Mega Man, unfortunately Squall is probably just below Mega Man
(and definitely can't beat Sonic). --- Curt - PSN - CPhoenixM I am the master of my fate; I am the captain of my soul. |

From: MyWorldIsCrono | #164 Never played Okami. Still know how to spell it easily. Fact/Fiction: Zack Fair wins at least one hour tonight! Fact/Fiction: Hayabusa/Chief is the closest match of round one --- "Stay with me until the end. Please." "Not until the end. Always." |
MyWorldIsCrono | Posted 2/21/2010 2:28:07 PM | message detail |
Fiction. He might win a couple updates, but he won't get close to winning an hour. Fiction. Yoshi/Missingno will be. Missingno is the kinda character I think will only have enough outside support to win, but not easily win. So I think it can be a 51-49% if not closer. --- http://cache.gawkerassets.com/assets/images/9/2010/02/13twop_02.jpg Albion Hero is the Cream of Loli fanboyism |

Fact/Fiction: Zack Fair wins at least one hour tonight! Fact. Zack got 57% from 5 to 6 on Mario in a match he lost 51-49, and Megaman is horrible with the deep night/early morning, worse than Mario. Fact, I'll guess for the other one. --- Missingno's quest to avenge Crono - Round 2: Yoshi |

From: red sox 777 | #170 I'd guess Zack isn't too far off from Cid, so he'll be lucky to even get close to 40% here... and winning an hour in a 40% match is a TALL order. --- http://cache.gawkerassets.com/assets/images/9/2010/02/13twop_02.jpg Albion Hero is the Cream of Loli fanboyism |

From: MarioSuperstar | #173 I consider Zack closer to the Aerith/Cid tier than the Tifa/Vincent tier, myself. --- http://cache.gawkerassets.com/assets/images/9/2010/02/13twop_02.jpg Albion Hero is the Cream of Loli fanboyism |

Zack
is considerably stronger than Cid I think. I don't know where Cid got
all this 'fan favourite' business from, even Barret is better than him.
Doesn't help that Cid is one of the last chars. to join the party, and
he doesn't have any 'bishonen' appeal to him. FFVII hierarchy goes
something like this: Cloud > Sephiroth >>> Tifa = Vincent >> Zack > Aeris > Cid Highwind |

MyWorldIsCrono | Posted 2/21/2010 2:38:59 PM | message detail |
Aeris (2007c) VS Yuna (2007c) Aeris has a strength of 28.31. Yuna has a strength of 25.23. Aeris wins with 55.44% of the vote! A win of 14,052 with 129,159 total votes cast. Lol 4way stats, but I think its interesting how close their matches were... Zack got like 3% more, and Aerith was about even with Cid in the vote in poll. So I don't think theres a large gap in strength between them. I think Zack is the strongest of that tier, but I still think they are all part of that mid card/high midcard tier, and not the near elite tier that Vincent and Tifa are part of. --- http://cache.gawkerassets.com/assets/images/9/2010/02/13twop_02.jpg Albion Hero is the Cream of Loli fanboyism |

EternalxCourage Posted 2/21/2010 5:24:06 PM message detail Quote Why would Sonic be weaker than Mega Man? If Squall can beat Sonic he can beat Mega Man, unfortunately Squall is probably just below Mega Man (and definitely can't beat Sonic). 63% on Cid > 61% on pre-FF13 Lightning. Sonic only managed 67% on a weak-ass Knuckles with the help of SFF. Losing to WCC with Zero in the poll > Losing to Auron and Kirby with noone hurting him. And let's not forget that really impressive sprite round match against Samus in 2007 (albeit with Yoshi sharing the poll) compared to Sonic almost losing to Sub-Zero and an SFF'd Squall. Face it, Sonic is the ass end of the Noble Nine unless Missigno lays an egg (lol) against Yoshi --- "Like Darth Maul, the bastard child of Michael Flatley and Hellboy" -trancer1 |

If you think Aeris and Yuna aren't far apart then I'm afraid to ask what you think of Auron. --- *is Dranze* Krahen Prophet did a fatality. |

MarioSuperstar | Posted 2/21/2010 2:41:23 PM | message detail |
So if that's the case, and you think Aeris and Yuna aren't far apart, why wouldn't you take Zack to break 40% easily? --- *is Dranze* Krahen Prophet did a fatality. |
BlAcK TuRtLe | Posted 2/21/2010 2:42:40 PM | message detail |
Aeris
and Yuna probably aren't that far apart. What has Aeris done since that
Sonic match in 2003 to show she has indirect strength? Given how bad
Squall/Sora beat her, it's pretty clear Aeris is a midcarder, about
where Yuna would be. --- "Like Darth Maul, the bastard child of Michael Flatley and Hellboy" -trancer1 |
MyWorldIsCrono | Posted 2/21/2010 2:42:58 PM | message detail |
He
may break 40%, but I doubt he gets much above that. Mega Man in no
pushover. I'm not even sure I'd take Auron to get 45% on Mega Man. --- http://cache.gawkerassets.com/assets/images/9/2010/02/13twop_02.jpg Albion Hero is the Cream of Loli fanboyism |
MarioSuperstar | Posted 2/21/2010 2:45:24 PM | message detail |
Well if you take 4 way stats seriously, Tidus managed 38%, as did Zero head to head (if that means anything to you). I think Zack could really impress here. --- *is Dranze* Krahen Prophet did a fatality. |
MarioSuperstar | Posted 2/21/2010 2:47:22 PM | message detail |
Although
I guess it depends on where you put Mega Man. Personally I don't see
him at his older popularity; I still think he's going to pull the same
thing he did in 2006. --- *is Dranze* Krahen Prophet did a fatality. |
MyWorldIsCrono | Posted 2/21/2010 2:49:17 PM | message detail |
I
put him as the strongest of the bottom 3 of the Noble Nine. I think at
this point he'd easily beat both Sonic and Crono... he hasn't had the
same apparent drop or embaressments the last couple years they have.
His biggest embaressment was losing to the Cube, but at least he had a
legit reason with Zero in the same poll.. Sonic and Crono don't have
those kinds of excuses to fall back on. --- http://cache.gawkerassets.com/assets/images/9/2010/02/13twop_02.jpg Albion Hero is the Cream of Loli fanboyism |

From: ZFS | #191 That would put him close to Vincent/Tifa. We haven't seen enough from him yet to say he is anywhere near that level. --- http://cache.gawkerassets.com/assets/images/9/2010/02/13twop_02.jpg Albion Hero is the Cream of Loli fanboyism |

Vincent would have a great shot to outright beat Mega Man, so no, that doesn't put him on that level. --- wheresoever you go, go with all your heart |

him at his older popularity; I still think he's going to pull the same
thing he did in 2006. Being perfectly consistent with where he was in 2005? I thought after Sora proved himself in the 4-ways that all this "Mega Man dropped in 2006" nonsense would stop. --- "Like Darth Maul, the bastard child of Michael Flatley and Hellboy" -trancer1 |

Unless you think Megaman boosted since 2006, no, not really. In that year Vincent was already projected to over 48% on Megaman. --- Missingno's quest to avenge Crono - Round 2: Yoshi |
CP724 | Posted 2/21/2010 3:06:20 PM | message detail |
43-45% isn't vincent/tifa level, 48-50% is. Remember Sora almost got 46% on the guy. --- derp |
HaRRicH | Posted 2/21/2010 3:06:21 PM | message detail |
Zack
should break 40% on Mega Man. I don't know how much higher than that
he'll go, but Zack beat Yuna like Auron beat Aeris and Zelda in 2006
suggests Yuna/Aeris equals. I don't think that's exactly the case since
there's no way I'm taking Yuna to beat Aeris and I think 2007's stats
back me up (though really, four-way stats like that should hardly be
counted on), but they shouldn't be far apart either. If Auron is on or
close to Mega Man's level, Zack can only be so much further behind than
that. Throw in that Zack broke 30+% on Link three rounds in a row from
2008, and yeah, Zack's gonna look fine. Unless you think 2008 isn't representative of his strength and he SFF'd Yuna in what should have been a close match...but come on. --- T E A M C H O C O L A T E http://img269.imageshack.us/img269/7355/64590879.png |
