Why on earth can't Sephiroth SFF smash people? WHY?

What's with all this Snake/Seph talk? I mean, I'd love to pretend that Missingno doesn't exist, but the glitch has a serious shot at the finals if Seph is getting this anti-voted against freakin' Vincent.

I think Vincent's just cemented himself as the strongest of the near-elites, though I still think Squall would have a shot at him.

And I love how good this makes Crono look! By the way, if Seph ends at 58%, Samus is expected to get 47% on him.

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

For the record, Sephiroth is projected to get 60.75% on Vincent based on the 2008 stats (though Vincent's probably a bit inflated there).

From: Not_Wylvane | #397
Anyone who thought Seph would crush Vincent horribly with SFF in 1v1 relied too much on four-way results. SFF is much bigger when you include two other characters that may threaten the bigger name.

Why hello there Link/Ganon
---
How are you today?

XD, if Sephiroth doesn't finish above 60% here, we could make a very good case for rSFF. It also means that Sephiroth is in trouble against Missingno.

Obviously Seph got the board vote. Time for Vincent to start cutting into this lead.

When wasn't Sephiroth in trouble against Missingno.?
---
:>

Wow, seriously.. end at 58? Listen to yourselves. Seph will get at least 61%. Book it
---
hmmmmmmmm

Well it's going to get over 60% thanks to Sephiroth's anti votes. But I don't think Vincent is a super board vote guy either so it probably won't be super higher than 60%

...what will Missingno be up by

Missingno needs to be up by at least 500 at the freeze for me to have hope in Missingno defeating Sephiroth.

If you're seeing this sig, I'm not on my computer!

Overreaction zone.

This

I remember when Terra had >38%. (Good times, good times.) And that was with Squall. You think Sephiroth can't do better than that?

So what can explain this? rSFF? Becuase 2007 Vincent got 23% on Sephiroth. LOL 4-ways all you want, but this is a 20% difference. And I thought it would be worse because I thought Vincent had got some "obvious last place" votes in a poll with 3 of the other 4 strongest characters out there.

BAM, seph smashing the anti voters now. Already about to hit 60

hmmmmmmmm

There we go. Five more of those in a row and we might actually be ok!!!!

The overall prediction wasn't too bad but the top tiers still made a killing on the match. Top 8 tiers go perfect and top 19 tiers are aobve 90. The prediction percentage will also be high for Sephiroth's win before Missingno. causes brackets to crash.

No one fell off the Top 50.

Vincent looking good. Would of loved to see him up against Sonic.
God him and Tifa are so wasted here.

What is this "overreaction zone" stuff? Missingno was always a threat to Sephiroth, and Missingno is even more of a threat now that Seph isn't destroying someone everyone thought he would destroy. Saying Seph is in serious trouble against Missingno is in no way an overreaction.

Yeah, Sephiroth will be just fine. Still not worried about Missingno against this guy. This match will give us a good idea of how far above Crono Sephiroth is anyway.

Gear Division Fourth Quarter

Squall Leonhart – 50.00%
Terra Branford – 35.48%
Darth Revan – 32.73%
Akuma – 31.99%

Akuma gets 48.87% on Revan and 45.08% on Terra.

The overreaction is how bad you guys are making this particular performance out to be. Vincent is near elite, possibly stronger than Crono and Sonic. I fail to see how what Sephiroth will end up putting on him isn't great.

This match is going to go exactly as it should by the time it's done, just minus the SFF. Not being able to SFF Vincent doesn't mean Sephiroth's in trouble.

"Stay with me until the end. Please."
"Not until the end. Always."

First Missingo has to get by Yoshi. I'm not convinced he can

Unless Missingno gets a giant bandwagon, which hasnt been confirmed yet, he as ZERO chance. Vincent = crono. Meaning they'd both be getting beat just as bad.
---
hmmmmmmmm

The fact that there's a question about Missingno's chances against Yoshi should tell you everything you need to know about his chances with Sephiroth.

Missingno always had a chance at Sephiroth, and he certainly still does.

But I don't think this performance makes the upset any more or less likely than it was after last round.
---
If you're seeing this sig, I'm not on my computer!

I think if Missingno does not get rallying like he did against Crono, he'll need to get his lead up to at least 3000 at its peak to withstand the last 8 hours of the match. If he does get rallying, all bets are off, but each 1000 Missingno fails to add to his peak lead is probably around 2500 extra votes he has to rally.

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

I should point out that everyone appears to be pointing towards Missingno getting an L-Block style bandwagon, when we have an alternate example in Weighted Companion Cube of a time when that did not occur to such an extent.

Missingno needs to get stronger to be a real threat. And he might - L-Block certainly did in his first year, and so did the Weighted Companion Cube. But if you look at, say, Mudkip, he didn't get appreciably stronger between rounds in 2008, and in 2007 was likely just taking advantage of LFF. And L and WCC both looked fairly bad in the second round. I don't think it's a given that Missingno builds up enough strength to beat Sephy.

The board vote will be absolutely glorious, though.

Missingno will go 50/50 for the first half hour maybe and then Sephiroth will just kill it.

Why is everyone trying to read Crono through Vincent through 4-ways? Assuming Crono=Missingno. we'll know exactly how these two stack up in about a week-and-a-half. Unless Missingno gets a huge bandwagon by then (which I doubt, I think the ridiculous votals from round 1 show he has legitimate strength coming in), that match will give us an almost-perfect read of how Crono/Sephiroth would have gone.

He has a chance if he can get a huge bandwagon going like Lblock. If he barely boosts he has no shot. The difference between crono and sephiroth is like 12%.
---
hmmmmmmmm

You're stupid if you think this match is going to go 100% for either character at this rate.

Missingno just pulled off a huge upset in Round ****ing 1 and has a bit of time to gain momentum. Sephiroth is the third strongest character in the contest by far (lol Snake).

This match doesn't change my mind one way or the other. I'm leaning toward Sephiroth still, but I'm not counting Missingno out yet.

There's a bit of difference there considering L-Block hadn't even had a match yet!

But really, this match seems to tell me more about Vincent than it does Sephiroth. He's still got the stuff.

For one, Cube isn't as big of a joke character in terms of appeal. Its from a PC game a lot of people haven't played. Pokemno is closer to tetris in terms of "Everyone has played"

Plus, Cube started off losing to Tidus. Missingno started off breaking the noble 9. Theres obviously a huge gap in strength there, so even the little bit of bandwagon should help Missingno tremendously.
