Yeah,
I think it's a law in Japan not to release big-name games like Pokemon
or Dragon Quest on a weekday as it causes mass amount of people to skip
work. --- KrahenProphet lived up to his name. |

Thousand-vote get. This is over if it wasn't already over. The ASV isn't going to favor Kratos that much more over Pokemon and B8 isn't letting Charizard lose if it even gets close. --- T E A M C H O C O L A T E http://img269.imageshack.us/img269/7355/64590879.png |

Charizard actually did (minorly) better in the 2nd hour than the first. 53.21% that hour, 53.13% the "power hour". --- Nothin' conclusive. |

12 hour matches have made it hard on some characters. That said, Charizard should beat L-Block and lose to Sora. --- Curt - PSN - CPhoenixM I am the master of my fate; I am the captain of my soul. |

That
stall was Charizard's lowest vote intake so far and Kratos's highest in
almost an hour. If this is the start of a trend (it probably isn't, but
for the sake of a great match lets hope it is) and a pro-Kratos ASV
(it's only a little early for the ASV to start), then this could be
amazing. Of course, this is all wishful thinking and I don't think Kratos can come back from this far down, but we can all hope. |

I'm
waiting to see how his match against Ryu goes before I put him in

There goes that wishful thinking, though Kratos increased his vote total again, so maybe I wasn't being too far-fetched. |

3/14 is a Sunday, I know that much. And Dante's worthy of a 2 seed. Just that Ryu's a lot better than a 7. --- "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!" |

Losing to Charizard =/= joke. Charizard is the strongest legit pokemon by far.

is the day of Charizard/whoever, yes. A list of poll times is on the

From: charmander6000 | #414 Losing to Charizard =/= joke. Charizard is the strongest legit pokemon by far. I would say Pikachu is the favourite in that match and even if he loses it wouldn't be by much. In a direct matchup, Pikachu gets SFFed out of town. People that hate pokémon vote Charizard, because pikachu is the "face" of the series. Hardcore Pokémon fans vote Charizard. Casuals vote Charizard for being more badass. People like Ermine vote Pikachu. --- I would love to see it. |

And
after how bad L-Block looked, it doesn't reflect too well on Ryu, but
it's pretty simple to chalk that up to the Block dropping, I suppose.
We'll see. I'm pretty confident Dante wins without a problem at this
point, but who knows. --- "Why must we always choose between certain death and probable death?" "I'm in an epic battle to the death, FIGURE IT OUT YOURSELF!" |

Pikachu/Charizard is one of those matches I'd like to see just for the sake of seeing how many people actually vote for Pikachu. Oh, and I guess this is worth asking: Charizard vs. Mewtwo? --- "Why must we always choose between certain death and probable death?" "I'm in an epic battle to the death, FIGURE IT OUT YOURSELF!" |
ExThaNemesis | Posted 2/24/2010 11:24:56 AM | message detail |
Charizard takes Pikachu to the cleaners, and probably beats Mewtwo as well. I think Mewtwo would SFF the Chu as well. --- "I learned in England not to deceive the referees" - Cristiano Ronaldo http://i50.tinypic.com/ohsr5j.jpg |

I mean Pikachu is the strongest character indirectly. Directly would be an interesting match though. --- Board 8 BOP: http://www.freewebs.com/charmander6000/CB8%20BOP.xls Character Battle VIII - 75/92 - Today's Winners: HK-47 and Kratos |

See, I think Pikachu probably holds up pretty well. Just a hunch. Man, next division's going to be pretty boring. They should all be pretty easy wins for everyone involved.

Looking
at Charizard's path, I'm a bit disappointed we won't get a better gauge
of Charizard. Do you guys trust basing him off of Duke and Kratos?
Kratos was against a lot of SFF, characters with a reason to boost, and
L-Block throughout the 4-way contests. Duke's best match to gauge was
probably his last match in 08. He got 22% on Link. But other than that,
I don't really trust Duke either based on last contest. I have a
feeling I'm missing something, but yeah. --- -Heals severely dry skin -18 hour moisturization -Fragrance free -With Vitamin E |

Charizard faces Sora, we'll get a pretty clean read off of him (if he
loses anyway; if he wins and faces Mario, then forget it). --- "But you have been given freedom. Freedom to be...outside." "I am lightning...the rain transformed." |

If
Missingno wins the contest, I think the bonus-poll should have every
single Pokemon in a free-for-all, plus Missingno, plus Red, Ash,
Pokemon Trainer, Brock, Professor Oak, and Shoe from South Park's
