Actually, now that I think about it, Sora is one of the most clutch guys we have: 2004 - Very debated fourpack with Hayabusa and Jill. Sora crushes it. 2005 - Very debated R2 match with Alucard. Sora gets the easy 55/45. 2006 - Nothing unexpected, but he brought his A+ game against Mega Man. 2007 - Debated R2 match against Aeris. Kills her. 2008 - Debated R2 match against Yoshi. Smashes him and scared Squall in the process. Sora shows up. In the last few years, Bowser... has not. --- Yoblazer: http://i43.tinypic.com/25z1non.jpg Watch and you'll see... someday I'll be... part of your world! |

Even
if Kefka hits 40% (which I am very much hoping he does!) that puts
Bowser awfully near Crono based on Crono/Alucard, Alucard/Arthas, and
Kefka/Arthas. For the record, using those matches, Kefka would be expected to get 37.31% on Crono - slightly better than Frog did on Bowser. --- Mustache...and Green... |

We only get two Tales of Symphonia characters regularly. That's not that many. --- "Spoil it for me. I'm never going to play that game so I want to know if he's going to be another Auron or another Sin." - Soul about Jecht vs. PW |

It's a day match, we should expect Bowser to overperform. --- Nominate Red XIII for the Character Battle VII! He's the Lion with a fire tail from Final Fantasy VII. |

based on Crono/Alucard, Alucard/Arthas, and Kefka/Arthas. This sounds reliable! --- "I can set you free, mate." "My freedom was forfeit long ago!" |

Sora
strikes me as a character that'll never really blow anyone out, but
won't really choke either. Laharl is definitely doing better than
expected, but I'm not too worried about it - it's not like Bowser's
performance against Frog was a show-stopper or anything. --- Master Chief choked. sad face :( |

I still think that Layle would be the most fantastic fodder ever. ...But I would take Laharl>Layle easily if he ever made it into a contest. Hell I'd take Vyse>Layle. |

Kefka/Arthas. For the record, using those matches, Kefka would be expected to get 37.31% on Crono - slightly better than Frog did on Bowser. It's Kefka. Who the hell knows what his performance means? He could break 40% or get doubled and I don't know if we'd really learn anything reliable from it. --- gamefaqscontests.com gamefaqscontests.com/gallery |

From: red sox 777 | #098 128-character 4-way All Tales Character Contest. With the winner facing Navi in a bonus match. Strongest of Jade/Luke/Yuri wins after Lloyd/Kratos/Mithos [or Zelos/Sheena] destroy each other in the finals. Navi then either pushes for 80% [in which case 2nd Bonus Match against Link for some real lol X-Stats hilarity], or ends up inspiring such a legendary anti-vote that she loses. --- xp1337: Don't you wish there was a spell-checker that told you when you a word out?

And now for something TOTALLY RELIABLE! Based on Laharl's percentage right now, Neku gets 27.89% on Sora. Neku got 22.05% on Ganondorf last year! Sora looks awful no matter what you do! --- "So cold. I am always by your side." "There ain't no gettin' off of this train we on!" |

I'm talking about the Tales franchise as a whole. There was also that one from the villains contest. And people actually talk about nominating more. Ugh. --- gamefaqscontests.com gamefaqscontests.com/gallery |

I have extremely high hopes for that picture! Let's do this, Kefka! That is the single most glorious picture Kefka ever received. I think Kefka reaches 45%. |

good. --- Missingno's quest to avenge Crono - Round 2: Yoshi |

There was also that one from the villains contest. Who will never come back again because that was just the Villains Contest. ...He did a lot better on Kefka than Wesker did though! Seriously, having Lloyd and Kratos in the bracket every year isn't that big of a deal. --- "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!" |

Bowser
has had his moments, though. He's come the closest of anyone of
dethroning the N9 in 1v1 until Missingno. Of course he had the perfect
storm of the 2005 Nintendo Boost, his solid performance in the Villains
Contest, facing the weakest N9 member at the time, and having one of
the weirdest pic advantages imaginable, and even then he still couldn't
pull it off. Yeah, Sora is still the favorite here. --- Not Wylvane |

If all FF characters sucked, we'd be screaming to get rid of them too. e.g. nobody wants to see any FF12 characters again, even fans of the game (like me). They suck, so screw 'em :) They just don't belong. --- gamefaqscontests.com gamefaqscontests.com/gallery |

Let's switch gears a bit: is anyone still holding out ANY hope for Kratos? As someone who has Kratos to the division finals in his bracket, I think he's screwed. ...barring some crazy, 7-Eleven related miracle, of course. --- Master Chief choked. sad face :( |

in those peoples' defense, have we ever seen an FF character outside of the villains contest who any Tales character could beat? Kuj...Oh wait, outside of the Villains Contest. But saying ANY Tales character is unfair. Jade Curtiss is one of the weakest characters ever. He finished dead last in the stats last year. --- "Spoil it for me.
