For the record, if Ramza can get more than 61.70% on Wander, then Riku > Falcon.

CAN HE DO IT

Non-Sora?


Sora hasn't looked any weaker or anything, especially since it's tougher to gauge him from these weaksauce early matches. Until he drops it against Bowser or Charizard or someone else, he's still Mr. Clutch.

Yup I had pegged this match to be a 65/35 affair because I thought Jill got a boost from RE5.

Jill is gonna finish above 31%.. maybe 33+. She's definitely stronger than Rikku. Also, Bowser vs Sora only worries me because its a sprite round.. Who the hell doesnt know the king koopa?

I wonder how well Roxas can do on Subby. He can kinda redeem KH's somewhat unspectacular contest so far if he can get anywhere near Tidus's number there.

Depends on what sprite Bowser gets. If he gets a Mario 1 sprite, yuck. That's butt ugly. Sora has great sprites, too.

Kratos does well pre-ASV, but Charizard is pretty consistent the rest of the way once we hit the ASV.

Sadly, I think the morning vote will eat her brains. She's got at least two more hours to cook, though.

I think she needs to get this to under the doubling before the morning vote to have a shot at 33%. She's trimmed off 0.79% in the last hour and doesn't appear to be losing steam so it's not inconceivable but won't exactly be easy either.

Fact/Fiction: She finishes above Chris in the xstats

I'd take Jill > Chris no questions asked, and I do think she will finish above him in the stats. I think generally she's always been more popular then him. Why she got her own RE game before him, why she was in spinoffs like Marvel vs capcom 2, why she was in a RE movie, and why she made it in the contest every year(right?).

ShatteredElysium | Posted 2/25/2010 2:06:18 AM | message detail
Whilst I'd take Jill > Chris without a second thought, the reason I asked is that Jill probably has to beat what Chris manages on Cloud by a couple of % to finish above him in the xstats. And Ridley managed 28.28% on Cloud.

That's of course assuming Cloud beats Samus.

I honestly don't think Cloud will have any trouble with Samus at all. 5-10min lead by samus is the most one could expect. That being due to Cloud's horrible board vote.

There's one thing that doesn't bode well for Samus here. Her trends are not looking even tonight - RE's night vote isn't this strong. Taking Cloud on at his best time, that's not something you want to have.

Jill has not made it in every year, though she was only absent in '05 while Chris made his contest debut in '07 (and did it by losing to Pyramid Head, lol).

Jill's now had six >40% updates... I don't think Samus has much chance of staying close to Cloud during the night.

Charizard actually made his spread yesterday... looks like Samus might yet make hers (68%).

40% for Jill in Europe. Yeah, that Smaus > Cloud train really looking good. Cloud will double her over here. Smaus has always been overrated against weaker characters anyway, when it comes to the top 4 she just can't cope.

Really low percentage for the previous match.I guess not many had faith in a Pokemon.Also if Jecht wins it will be the lowest seed that advances to round 3 so far in round 2.
