Tifa may be an even more random near-elite than Missingno.

What's wrong with Disc 2?

Like (seemingly) much of the FFVII fanbase, I didn't like Tifa nearly as much in Disc 2. She went from being optimistic and driven to sulky and totally useless. Seems like a lot of fans hate the fact that she hid the truth from Cloud, but I can understand why she did that. I just hated all the "without Cloud, I can't go on" crap. Disc 1 Tifa was way better than that.


The worst part when Cloud was gone, she stepped up and was like "aw yeah, Tifa is gonna actually do something now". Then as soon as Cloud is back, she right back to being stuck in the kitchen, making Cloud sandwiches.

Woah Tifa. She won't hold anything like what she has now, but she'll look great regardless. I have to suppose this is mostly her strength since Seph didn't lay eggs against Marth and Vincent.


Though if she keeps updating like that (47%)...

I'd probably vote for Fenix over a good number of characters that he would lose to, but Pikachu isn't one of them. I might vote for Gears of War over any SSB, but I'm still debating that.

Nah. He's not looking as bad as Link or Cloud or Sora (lol), but he's far from the most impressive.

I think most impressive #1 seed this contest would go to Samus.

Snake's board vote will get him far enough in the lead that he can hold it for a few hours probably, but this is just ridiculous. Seph during the board vote and Seph after the board vote are just two completely different entities. Unfortunately for Snake, he has to deal with the latter for 11 hours or so. >.>

Tifa did get to win three matches. People are starved for an upset and she contrasts pretty well with Sephiroth among the cast; maybe no one else from the game would be able to overperform better on the guy. Either way, this match is pretty garbage; Tifa performance against Big Daddy wasn't impressive enough to make me think this is legit. I'm also still wary of taking her over Squall, but she should have the raw strength and SFF advantage to get my support over Vincent or Auron.

I think Snake will be lucky to lead Sephiroth for more than 20 minutes, frankly, and I'm being generous here.

I'm feeling a whole ten minutes of Snake leading Sephiroth.

Assuming it's someone equal to Tanner, since Tanner would get votes from Board 8 just for being Tanner, then yes.

I bet Tanner's equal would break 10% on Sephiroth!

Wow, Pikachu below Fox. And there's no way that Pikachu would be that close to Ellis. Ellis was easy turbofodder. Also, even if Snake didn't have his Solid **** pic, Pikachu still would have outdone Fox's result on Snake anyways. There needs to be a better way to adjust Pikachu. I remember someone saying that Bacondorf is worth 47% on Ganondorf (or maybe it was 48%), based on 2 Luigi/Ganondorf matches in 2007. Too bad Solid **** and regular Snake don't share any common opponents upon which we can accurately calculate the strength difference between the 2. Solid **** is a lot worse for Snake than Bacondorf is to Ganondorf. I guess Solid **** is probably in the range of about 40-42% on regular Snake. I guess if you take that fact and readjust Snake's round 3 result, Pikachu should still wind up higher than Shepard.
