Not
sure if this has been brought up yet, but Ezio might lose some of his
edge on DK if he doesn't have a clear pic advantage with Rodrigo
dragging him down. --- "Ahem! There is *sand* on my *boot*!"--Kefka This is Yesmar. |
  |
Neither side has a real pic advantage. --- "I couldn't stand a day without a past or future. I need to live each moment to keep fighting here and now." |
DK's pic is clearly better. --- "intention doesn't matter? clearly your cashier degree did not require a law course." - ND to Joyrock on the legality of drinking a soda before paying |
Yeah,
nothing wrong with the pick but I think the Ezio pic hurts him a tad.
Or rather doesn't help as much as I might have hoped. I think DK needs a solid lead early to win. If it's a nailbiter, never pick DK. --- http://img.imgcake.com/drakeryn/tiroalecjpgap.jpg http://img.imgcake.com/drakeryn/alecjpgyt.jpg |
DK
is going to be lucky that Ezio has such a bad board vote (based on his
previous matches), so he'll need to start out strong in order to win.
If DK has less than 53% by the end of the board vote, I'd probably call
it over for DK. --- Luster Soldier --- ~Shield Bearer~ | ~Data Analyst~ Popular at school, but not as cool as BlAcK TuRtLe, Guru Champ! |
I'm
not saying DK will get points for having a great picture (although it
is a great pic), but in an ordinary 1v1 match, Ezio gets a lot of "Woah,
that guy looks badass" votes, but the rivalry itself will lose some of
those votes with some dumpy old guy in a prominent part of the match
pic. --- "Ahem! There is *sand* on my *boot*!"--Kefka This is Yesmar. |
Wow Guybrush crushed the EU evening vote. --- Praise the Black Turtle, Game of the Decade Guru Champ. (Well, I never promised creativity, did I?!) |
Wish I felt more confident about my pick, but it really feels like a toss-up. Oh well, here we go! |

Rivalries Matter . --- .... |
Well,
what I view this is as even more proof that the 2nd character matters.
People aren't going to vote for someone if their 2nd is a chump --- http://raptr.com/badge/cf898f37d9c30ef120ada6c35e636ad3/fs.png http://myanimelist.net/signature/RyanSaotome.png |
Well I banked on this match, oh well. At least I still have a perfect bracket after this. --- GameFAQs isn't going to be merged in with GameSpot or any other site. We're not going to strip out the soul of the site. -CJayC |
Nice one, DK. --- Praise the Black Turtle, Game of the Decade Guru Champ. (Well, I never promised creativity, did I?!) |
DK will still lose --- Love was invented by guys like me, to sell nylons. |
From: FateStayAlbion | #283 In other words, "Rivalries matter." --- "Why must we always choose between certain death and probable death?" "I'm in an epic battle to the death, FIGURE IT OUT YOURSELF!" |
Alright,
let's assume DK takes a win without trouble. For whom does that spell
trouble? Certainly Shepard. Maybe Chell/GlaDOS for those who took the
upset over Frog/Magus? --- Yoblazer: http://oi52.tinypic.com/ad21i1.jpg Watch and you'll see... someday I'll be... part of your world! |
My
reasoning for taking DK/K Rool was the DKC nostalgia. DK being the dude
everyone will vote for, plus this being a night match would actually
favorite his team for the older crowd. I figure Ezio would get more
votes during the day, but I have no idea how people feel about him or
his rival since I've never played an AC. --- GameFAQs isn't going to be merged in with GameSpot or any other site. We're not going to strip out the soul of the site. -CJayC |
Soooo... I've called all the battle picks right, haven't banked and am not on the leaderboard. Any idea why? |
People literally still wondering if DK is going to win. --- :> |
Well,
what I view this is as even more proof that the 2nd character matters.
People aren't going to vote for someone if their 2nd is a chump King K. Rool despite liking him is also a chump --- BOP Results: http://www.freewebs.com/charmander6000/Rivalry%20BOP.xls Rivalry Rumble: 6/6 Today: Donkey Kong/King K. Rool & Sub-Zero/Scorpion |
From: spikevegeta | #290 It's glitched. There are actually like a thousand people who still have perfect scores. --- Yoblazer: http://oi52.tinypic.com/ad21i1.jpg Watch and you'll see... someday I'll be... part of your world! |
From: PartOfYourWorld | #288 I will be the first to say it tonight. It spells trouble for the god himself. LInk is in deep. It also spells trouble for anybody unfortunate enough to get in the way of XZero, and the Poke trainers. Link still has a good shot, just because lets be honest here, I think that match is so high profile it still becomes Link vs Cloud, but if it does not, if it REALLY is Linkondorf vs Cloudiroth, uh.... --- From: Regaro_Ukiera | MWC is god-tier |
charmander6000 posted... King K. Rool despite liking him is also a chump You're kidding yourself if you think K. Rool isn't worth a lot, lot more than Rodrigo. --- :> |
PartOfYourWorld posted... Alright, let's assume DK takes a win without trouble. For whom does that spell trouble? Certainly Shepard. Maybe Chell/GlaDOS for those who took the upset over Frog/Magus? I think this also bodes well for Ryu/Ken or the Pokemon Trainers versus Samus. --- http://raptr.com/badge/cf898f37d9c30ef120ada6c35e636ad3/fs.png http://myanimelist.net/signature/RyanSaotome.png |
The
battle stats are messed up because there are only 31 people with a
streak of 2100 points and I'm not on the leaderboard despite having 2100
points right now. --- Luster Soldier --- ~Shield Bearer~ | ~Data Analyst~ Popular at school, but not as cool as BlAcK TuRtLe, Guru Champ! |
From: FateStayAlbion | #296 Assuming Samus, you know, gets past THE BOSSES --- "Why must we always choose between certain death and probable death?" "I'm in an epic battle to the death, FIGURE IT OUT YOURSELF!" |
You're kidding yourself if you think K. Rool isn't worth a lot, lot more than Rodrigo. 10% on Link vs. 15% on Link, they're still both fodder. --- BOP Results: http://www.freewebs.com/charmander6000/Rivalry%20BOP.xls Rivalry Rumble: 6/6 Today: Donkey Kong/King K. Rool & Sub-Zero/Scorpion |
wow this was the match that all the new users came here to ask about? assassin's creed really isn't worth crap on this site is it --- ~Zen |
