From: red sox 777 | #442 It's now midnight in London. Asia waking up isn't as big as Europe falling asleep. This still isn't over, but Ryu is the clear favorite, no doubt. --- Yoblazer: http://i32.tinypic.com/zlf1w7.gif Watch and you'll see... someday I'll be... part of your world! |

Hockey
Factor is for real as the votes for the last hour barely dropped from
the hour before that. In the Super Bowl match, the votes actually
boosted a tiny bit in the hour after the Super Bowl ended. Though that
didn't happen here, there was only a 5 vote drop in this hour. Well Canada is busy celebrating and the game didn't quite finish at the beginning of the hour. --- Board 8 BOP: http://www.freewebs.com/charmander6000/CB8%20BOP.xls Character Battle VIII - 85/108 - Today's Winners: Leon and Ryu |

At
this point, I'm willing to buy that. If a SF character is at the 180ish
range 'round the time Ken/Wesker was, the lead change WILL happen. :P From now on, every time there is a debatable match, I WILL take the SF character. But again, I already did that. Picked both Ken>Wesker and Ryu>Dante. --- JechtFAQS. |

From: voltch | Posted: 2/28/2010 7:05:56 PM | #459 Well...Dante has jobbed 3/3 debatable matches, hasn't he? He lost Yoshi/Dante, Vincent/Dante, and now Ryu/Dante. Maybe Ryu/Dante 2k3 too if you wanna count that, which means he has NEVER won a debatable match. --- Placeholder anti-capslock sig. |

Dante's loss to Vincent wasn't jobbing because Vincent actually showed himself to be legitimately stronger. --- If you're seeing this sig, I'm not on my computer! |

I
mean, Vincent DESTROYED Kerrigan, and some people thought he had a
legit chance against Crono. Dante was the first guy to show everyone
that Vincent was tough, but not unstoppable when he got 46% on him. --- This is good...isn't it? - Big motha****ing Boss |

Dante's
lost two truly debatable matches (counting this one), both with very
slim margins and both with the same bleh DMC2 pictures. I'm aware that
people have the opinion that it doesn't matter... and I offer up the
polite counteropinion that they're full of it. Aside from it being
DMC2, Dante is a character whose strength draws heavily from his design. That's not a cool looking picture. --- http://i48.tinypic.com/1ryijd.jpg http://fc03.deviantart.com/fs14/f/2007/020/b/f/Ariel_by_lolita_art.jpg |

From: Karma Hunter | #480 Its cool in a different sense, a sense that the current jokester Dante from 3/4, is vastly different from. Its definitely my least favorite version of him. Man, this makes Axel ever worse, doesn't it?

From: KanzarisKelshen | #462 Vincent/Dante was never debatable, no matter what those Kerrigan whiners say. Dante's debatable 1v1 losses are Crono 2002, Ryu 2003, Yoshi 2006 and presumably today. 0 for 4 is pretty bad. --- ·.,¸¸,.·´¯`·.,¸¸,.·´¯`·.,¸¸,.~*ST*~.,¸¸,.·´¯`·.,¸¸,.·´`·.,¸¸,.· http://img196.imageshack.us/img196/9416/eziogaiden.png |

Meh. There's no evidence whatsoever this picture actually hurts him. People said the same thing about Solid **** for years. I offer up my polite counteropinion once again. Now, this doesn't mean that I'll be taking Dante in any debatable matches from here on out, but that's because I expect him to keep getting stuck with it! --- http://i48.tinypic.com/1ryijd.jpg http://fc03.deviantart.com/fs14/f/2007/020/b/f/Ariel_by_lolita_art.jpg |

From: UltimaterializerX | #2405 I was also going to say something about how Vincent/Dante wasn't debatable, just debated :) But, I wouldn't have been serious. It was certainly debatable, even if the debate was way more than it should have been. --- gamefaqscontests.com gamefaqscontests.com/gallery |

From: UltimaterializerX | Posted: 2/28/2010 7:16:59 PM | #485 Huh, so the number ends up the same, though for different reasons. Funny that. But yeah, I think this says a lot of Dante. He's always shown that he can never win a debatable match (and he's even been called "consistent (AKA boring)" on something like every single match writeup he's had, which ain't good for when you need a clutch to take it), and he likely never will unless he gets a new fanbase or something. --- Placeholder anti-capslock sig. |
