So who's ready for a massive Jecht overperformance due to FFXIII that'll make him end up higher in the Xstats then his brat son?


Until Samus gets through with Zelda anyway.

Looks like Subby's gonna end up beating Jilly's percentage after all. I think this is an impressive performance for Samus. I mean, this is a guy who got 40% on Auron on two separate occasions and 45% on Sonic on another. I think Samus will end up putting a good number on Cloud in a couple rounds. I think she'll actually be decently close before that night vote kills her off.

Between Samus underperforming in 2006 and a potential Zelda deboost this year, I wouldn't be too surprised if Samus breaks 60% on Zelda.

Sub-Zero got 40% on Auron?

Why hasn't anyone mentioned this yet?

I'd be kinda surprised if Samus didn't break 60% on her, really. She very nearly got 60% on Ganondorf in his best year in 2005. She got 62.02% on Ganon in round 2 in 2008 and 67.25% in round 3. The round 2 number's probably a little more accurate, but I think Samus can get 60%+ without much trouble barring something weird happening there, which I suppose is possible.

I don't really see this performance as too impressive. Auron is expected to break 40% on Samus which is something that I expect him to do. Samus seems likely to break 40% on Cloud, but she was already doing that in 2004.

In round 1, he did. Round 2, he was a little off. He got 40%+ on Sonic that round though.

Based on what? Round 2? Sonic got Brawl in between those two matches.

I can buy some OFPUF there though, I guess.

He also has a picture advantage, and Samus is the worst opponent Jill could have drawn. Jill > Sub-Zero with somewhere in the neighborhood of 53%, probably.

3D Samus usually has better performances (which makes sense if you like to believe that Samus gets some of her support based on her appeal) and Sub-Zero's pic is very nostalgic - likely the best he could have gotten.

The idea of 32% against Samus being a Sub-Zero *overperformance* makes me scared of Samus.

Well, if she wasn't running headfirst into Cloud.

Heck her sprite isn't that much different than her 3D form.

I think that's circumstantial evidence more than anything else. She did fine against Squall in 2003. She did fine against Sora in 2004. Mario, she loses that one no matter what pic you give her. She did fine against Rikku in 2006. As much as you don't like to believe it, there was almost certainly Samus/Yoshi LFF in 2007 (I don't think Scorpion ever gets as close to Yoshi as he did in that match).

So yeah.

Ulti is also responsible for the ****ed-up Luigi sprite.

Of course, he *****ed when people criticized the sprite.

And now here we have a guy who got 56% on Ratchet in his preferential timeframe flirting with 40% on Zelda. Can it be partially because his picture looks a lot cooler? I think so.

Not really. It was obvious that Jecht would get an overperformance on the day that a new mainline FF was released... since you know, this site is full of FF fans talking about it.
