Congratulations to Snake for becoming our #3 character and giving Cloud such a good fight. This match is over though; Snake has only won 2 hours so far, the Power Hour and an hour he won by like 20 votes.

Can't see Snake winning. Dude's got a pretty bad day vote, and it's a weekend so most likely we're just going to see this pattern continuing. Match does make me wonder what happens if we swap Snake and Samus's positions in the contest though.

Makes me wonder how badly Link will blow out Cloud(or maybe Snake, who knows) tomorrow. I'll be very surprised if it's not the harshest beatdown Cloud's had.

By the way, predict this:

Cloud
Mario

Sonic
Charizard

Samus
Snake

Sephiroth
Mega Man

It should be over now, but still a very impressive contest for Snake. 48-49% on the 2nd strongest character on this site is nothing to scoff at.

Let me do it for the one last time.

Snake wins. He's not even down 1000 and managing monster cuts out of nowhere. Cloud will drop this.

Karma Hunter | Posted 3/20/2010 7:58:55 AM | message detail
The wind is too capricious. Snake needs to cut like something much more consistent... like a sturdy oak tree.

Alternatively, like something that's actually good at cutting things. Like a sword. Or an airplane wing!

We're not even to Cloud's best time of the match, he would need a ton of rallying efforts and a last hour push. It's *basically* over, though I'm doing my darnedest to support him despite the < 5% or something chance he's got at this point.

Jeez the difference between cloud and sephiroth is insane now. To think it was less then 2% in 2k3, and sephiroth was stronger in 2k2. We've seen likely sff in the past between square/metal gear, did it occur again during seph/snake maybe? Snake taking over with nintendo support.

For what it's worth, Snake's percentage in the US and Canada used to be far higher than what they currently are. Cloud is just outright winning the day vote and if this match goes how it should - being weekend - he should win... but Snake is not one to conform to expectations.

The thing about Snake is that he doesn't get any better than this. He puts all of his strength into his first 2 or 3 hours-he's like a Nintendo character without a good day vote in that respect. Cloud's still got some of his best hours ahead of him.

Snake had close to 53% in NA a few hours ago, Cloud should be over 50% there easily by the end of the match I'd think.
