Top tiers do pretty good relative to the overall prediction percentage. 113 brackets and better go perfect. 109 and better break 80. From there the prediction percentage falls to the mid 30s.

Only 3 people on the Top 50 got this one wrong. Big_Bob, pezzicle and ZenOfThunder did not have Tifa winning the match.

1 person got it wrong but survived. nintendogirl1 also didn't have Tifa winning but manages to hang onto 50th place.

Thanks Anagram!

Only 3 people on the Top 50 got this one wrong. Big_Bob, pezzicle and ZenOfThunder did not have Tifa winning the match.

With such a savvy leaderboard, I really doubt any of them will have Cube > Luigi too. Which means I then have to pray some of them had Ganon > Sonic or something. FML

X has nothing to stop Link's skyrocketing though. Alucard had the entire night to stem the bleeding. MM starts out hot, but if they're not winning by the first 5-10 minutes, they ain't winning at all.

Truly, if there is a god of destiny, he is fond of plot twists.

Nintendo needs to do some serious marketing for Zelda in the Phillipines. Unless it's banned there or something as has been suggested.

Zelda may be unpopular there, but Metroid is even more unpopular there than Zelda. Mario is decent there and Pokemon does best there out of anything Nintendo.

Huh, I probably forgot to update that from a five minute X-stats post. And here I've been using 22% for Magus whenever I argued about Frog and Bowser!

As one of the biggest anti-Red supporters, I would have taken Red over Magus without hesitation.

This is X underperforming compared to what he would be "naturally" worth on this anti-voted Link, but with the SFF involved I really don't think you could have realistically asked for much more.

I mean, I did. But it turns out I'm not very realistic.

Yes, because of SFF

1. Link SFFed MM, there has to be SFF here
2. Votals are much lower for a Link match

Fair enough

Oh I bet. Good for you guys, I honestly came into the game feeling like we had no chance, and that wasn't helped by the first 12 minutes or so. I'm just happy Duke made a game of it. Going into College Park on Senior night isn't easy. GV's senior night makes it even more difficult.
