Ganondorf only got 38% on Samus, I'm not sure why you expect her to do better.

Direct comparison > a comparison of another character

We'll see in a half an hour though.

Sounds more likely then Zelda only being a mid card, which is what 35% would be.

You mean Link not being able to get as big of blowouts as before (when nobody is able to), Ganon losing to Sonic with a Bacondorf pic, and Jecht overperforming on Zelda due to FFXIII release date?

And not only that, most of the Zelda characters' matches were at night.

I'm taking this result as Zelda pretty much being exposed as weaker than we thought (or Samus can finally SFF properly in 1V1's). Zelda's (and Ganondorf) probably have lost their High-midcard edge and have went down to upper-midcard level.

Zelda getting rocked here shouldn't be surprising. Every performance she's had this year has been pretty lackluster. LoZ looks a little weaker than usual this year.

I'm kinda disappointed here, even though this is practically equal to my Oracle (for now). Mario got 62% last year and Samus had every reason to do better.

Oh well, goes to show you that Mario > Samus, now and forever.

Late-contest insanity and a horrendous Power Hour for Cloud + Samus/Ninty fans holding the Power Hour lead through the night. It's very, very unlikely given Cloud's (and Samus's) night votes, but hell, I won't call it impossible.
