Charizard is done. Kratos will build an insurmountable lead, Char will try to cut with ASV, but SNV will heavily favour the God of War!

Well I have Sora > Charizard too, so bracketwise, this is looking better for me. But I'm already eliminated, so I wanted to see another strong near-elite.

Okay, not really. But I figured the update for it was just a prolonged board vote due to the glitch. Now we're into the match proper.

No, but at this point stalling is the best he can hope for. Ocne we get out of the power hour is the time he starts his cutting.

Reducing a 70 vote increase to 30 in the next update is as good as a cut here considering what we know of K.

No, it isn't. Do you people not understand that this is a bad timeframe for Pokemon? Outside of the board vote, Kratos and Charizard are going to have identical trends.

Uhh...just look at Kratos' starts. Even if this is a bad timeframe for Pokémon, it's not as abysmal as Baldhead's starts. They're just a bit above FF7 tier, really. >_>

And seeing how he's keeping it close, I'm confident on his ASV again. Charizard is well known, but K has the casuals in his hip pocket.

Red/MMX and Missingno/Crono are the only Pokemon day matches we've seen so far. Not very good comparisons considering Kratos' trends are nothing like MMX or Crono, so who knows how this goes.

Pokemon is generally strong in Asia. I'm sure the result will change to Charizard > Kratos when more votes from Asia come in. There are very few votes from Asia right now.

I'd say the match itself is over, I don't see Kratos actually winning.

However he could cut into the %age. Though I see Charizard rising a bit, before Kratos starts cutting.

The ASV and SNV will probably favor Kratos, but only slightly, and it's not definite the ASV will favor him.

Quick question: if you rerun Duke/Kefka/Marth/Niko from 2008, does Kefka advance now? Does he win? How easily?

Because Bowser got 61.88% on Kefka in a day-match while Charizard got 64.25% on Duke in a night-match. Assuming Bowser/Charizard happens, Charizard has that favorable comparison on his side unless you think Kefka RREEAALLLLYY boosted.

Can't expect much more then that in the power hour from him. He's horrible at this time period; He should do a lot better once we're out of it.
