Cloud with or without Kingdom Hearts?

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

Seems that Terra is becoming stable in the 37s. I doubt she drops off much here, since its not like Squall has a good day vote either. Damn good performance for Terra I must say. I for one am glad to see this resurgence of old FF characters. We need to bring back Celes, Rydia, and Kain now, imo.

Celes got the snot beaten out of her by The Boss, and did not appear in Dissidia. She never needs to return.

I dunno. Going from losing to Mario to beating Link is a pretty big jump. It's hard to say though because we never got to see Nintendo characters before Melee.

I'm worried a hell of a lot more about Sora than I am about Squall. Bowser matched this percentage against someone we all assumed was stronger than Terra.

Hot damn, Terra. Keep it up!

Heh, this is making me want FFVI-2. Love to see what that would do for her and Kefka. (I'd rather have a DS remake of VI myself, but that didn't seem to do Crono and co. any favors.)

Not anymore!

Plus, Kefka's first few hours were by far his best. Squall's no Bowser when it comes to the ASV, but FFVI is basically the king of day vote suck around here.

Yeah, but by how much does Cloud win? I doubt it's a whole lot. Link still got 56.65% on Sephiroth, so we're talking, what 55/45 at best for Cloud?

I'm sure SOME of Missingno's picks were favorites (People who hate Crono) or 0 bracket attempts, but I don't know how much that will affect its overall percentage.

I wonder how many 0 bracket attempts we had this year? TRE will have to report back on the number of 0 brackets after the first match of the contest, because that had the highest prediction percentage so far this contest. I assume most of the 0 brackets after the first match of the contest were actually 0 brackets, rather than Thrall fans picking him over Link.

I think Squall will improve with the day-vote and I'm taking Squall > Bowser regardless, but Sora hasn't looked so hot and isn't as strong as Squall...hmmm.

Also, pretty much off-topic, but does anybody know what "Dissidia" means? Or did Square just decide that a new word would best define the game?

No, Ike still sucks. Why does Zidane get to be the New Square exception? Because it's the least popular one?

Man Terra, why could you not have been more popular than Kefka FIVE YEARS AGO WHEN I HAD YOU IN MY BRACKET!!!

In all fairness, if the Kingdom Hearts crew has really collapsed, it makes sense that Squall would as well.

Sorry I read that wrong, yes 55/45 for Link/Cloud in 2002. Wind Waker provided a boost, but so did Kingdom Hearts.

It is a derivative of the Latin word "Dissidium", which roughly translates to discord or conflict.

But really, even if New Square or Kingdom Hearts has deboosted, that doesn't give Auron any particular advantage because it affects him, too.

If you bother playing Dissidia, you'll never want to hear the words "discord" or "conflict" ever again.

Yeah, New Square/Kingdom Hearts weakening certainly doesn't do Auron any favors. The idea does make sense given how most of Square/KH has done this contest, though. Not that they've all been equally terrible, but most have been pretty underwhelming.

Not as badly though. He's newer and in the only good FF game for PS2, which shouldn't bring him down too much.

But I wouldn't take anything out of these two matches. MM related characters have boosted, and old Square has boosted, so it's tough to see how good each of these performances actually are.

UltimaterializerX | Posted 3/2/2010 9:45:53 AM | message detail
Also, Dissidia clearly boosted characters who weren't already massively popular. It can't do anything for guys like Cloud, Squall and Seph because they're already entrenched. Cecil, Kefka, Terra and Zidane have all done very well this contest. Auron's still in a world of trouble.

I dunno. Auron/Aerith went almost exactly as Squall/Aerith did in 2007, for what little that's worth. You'd figure Auron would do better than that if he were affected less, at least.

Sephiroth doubled Auron back in 2004, and they're from different games. Vincent's stronger than Auron (or at least stronger than Auron 2004 was), so...I dunno. I'd say a doubling or so. It's hard to say.

I think Vincent can stop Seph from breaking 70%. People point to the Seph/Mario/Link 2007 match, but that was pretty exceptional and Vince was way out of his depth there. Heavy favourites are really struggling this year.
