FACT- If Mega Man can lead Samus for an hour, why not Mario for 5 minutes? Shame that round 4 isn't the sprite round.

I think a better question would be:

FACT/FICTION: Mega Man outperforms Snake on Hayabusa next round
---
"Like Darth Maul, the bastard child of Michael Flatley and Hellboy" - trancer1

30% on BL? Zack got 30% on 2008 Link, who's probably stronger than BL. Crono got 45% on Samus last year- he may be a tad overrated there, but 35% on BL is a lot more reasonable for him.

The Samus we saw in 2008 was more on par with 2002-2004 Mario than her previous years. Getting 45% on her in a LFF match, isn't that much better than 33-30 on BL, and combine that with the drop off the CT characters might have taken.

Alucard's numbers are very suspect when taking into account Link's previous match.

Your new name is decent, Albion.

I'd love to see Megaman > Mario at the freeze, but Mario's board vote is really good. It's possible though and Megaman could end with like 47-48% if he resists SFF.

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

Normally, I just lurk around here, but I need to get something explained....

I don't get Luigi. He doesn't seem like the a very strong character, yet he beat Zero in 2006, edged out Ganondorf in 2007, and blew away Bowser in 2008. Is he some sort of master at rSFF or something?

Congratulations to KrahenProphet for beating me in the Guru.

also MEGA MAN > MARIO SON

Its a good thing that its not the sprite round, then! I'd imagine round 4 is when we are gonna start getting those "art" pics again.

Going by Zero/Crono the round before, he looks pretty close to his 2005/2006 numbers.

Except for the fact that Crono fell off a cliff that year.

Samus has been perhaps the most consistent character ever since 2003; why would she suddenly fall off so much? It's not like she looked bad in her other matches, and indeed, she broke 46% on Mario while being at the bottom of Triple SFF. And if you don't like Samus still, Vincent's always been way above 30% on BL too.

I mean, Link is strong and all, but all the near-elites should be above 30% on BL, and probably some of the high midcarders too, depending on how much stronger you think Link is now than in 2003.

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

Sonic has reason to nose-dive downward since his games are one continuous ball of suck. Crono is just slowly deteriorating, and even had a port to slow it down a bit. In 2008 he handled L-Block with ease and beat Vincent in a rematch, not to mention having enough strength to make it to the finals through the intense LFF (something Zack couldn't pull off!). 2008 was probably Crono's best year since 2004 or so.

Crono is still likely Top 10, or would be if Missingno hadn't showed up and threatened to dethrone him. Of course, who knows if Missingno will actually be a Top 20 Contender next year, let alone Top 10! WCC went from being close to Tidus to being close to The Boss, and L-Block's a far cry from even his 2008 self!
---

Auron should still rise enough during the night to look respectable. Hopefully this is just a sign that Zero is returning to his old levels.

You know, I think the thing most startling to me about all of this is that Fenix *hasn't* dropped off and is actually stable. Wtf.

I don't think Mario's board vote will be great in that match. It might be a Snake/Fox like thing - favorites seem to have a lot of trouble with the board vote.

I really doubt Mega Man can hit 48% by the end though.

Yeah Luigi's strength seems pretty sneaky.

It's a shame that Luigi's just wasted against Link! He needs to gradually face competition you'd expect him to lose to, from Zero to Ganondorf.

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

Zero would probably be around 54-55% here if it was a full day match. Either Auron is looking to not be anywhere near contention next round or Zero is back to top 15 status.
---
"Like Darth Maul, the bastard child of Michael Flatley and Hellboy" - trancer1

Well Auron/Squall won't tell us the answer to that because of SFF.

There shouldn't be any serious SFF in that match.

Yeah, we've seen that the board's love for Mega Man this year knows no bounds. Their early votes are up there.

The Snake/Fox thing still confounds me. With how Fox did in the Power Hour you'd think Snake would drop off come morning, but instead his morning vote wasn't even all that lower than his overnight domination.

I mean, since when did Snake become a FF7 character? What's with the early vote/Power Hour vote this year?

No SFF between Auron and Squall? Two "badass" type characters from Final Fantasy?

The Power Hour is truly back to being the Nintendo/Mega Man Power Hour, basically. If you're not Nintendo, too bad!

Nah. The day vote wouldn't favor Zero nearly as much as this early vote. Auron's day vote is quite decent. It'd probably be mostly a stalemate from morning on.

"Like Darth Maul, the bastard child of Michael Flatley and Hellboy" - trancer1

There could be SFF. We don't know. Squall did deliver massive SFF to Tidus afer all.

Touche, I guess. I still say it existed despite the results; it doesn't necessarily require blowouts of Tidus/Squall proportions to make a case for SFF. Remember what those are initials for... it's clear Squall and Auron share a fanbase and all.
---

SFF isn't a factor in close matches, outside of killing the votals. We saw that in VIncent/Squall, Kirby/Luigi and Kirby/Bowser for example.

As if Auron wouldn't :o) That would be even worse.

I'd be pretty surprised if Squall SFFed Auron. Auron should get 47% or more.

What are you trying to get at here? SFF as we use it means someone is disproportionately favored by that fanbase. Everyone shares a fanbase.
