Link and Arthus got bad matchpics --- GamF@qs = Large amounts of text and merry-goround- debates that normally end with going off topic and talking about something that nobody cares about --Lambent7 |
wait, Link's in the picture? --- thelefty for analysis crew 2008 imo -tranny I have a third degree burn in flame-o-nomics -Sir Chris |
scotted4 posted... Link and Arthus got bad matchpics I think the Arthas/Illidan match pic looks pretty sweet. Link's looks horrendous, though. It's a good thing he doesn't need it. --- PSN - Aevio "I'm on a Goomba." - BlackMageJawa |
Wow,
that first one is easily the worst pic so far. This is what we come up
with for freakin' Link? I should have put something together in ten
minutes. Nook and Redd look like ****ing bosses, though. --- Yoblazer: http://i44.tinypic.com/5nw45i.jpg Watch and you'll see... someday I'll be... part of your world! |
I'm loving the Arthas/Illidan pic. They really stand out there. Not that it'll matter, but maybe it'll help them get over 20%! --- http://raptr.com/badge/cf898f37d9c30ef120ada6c35e636ad3/fs.png http://myanimelist.net/signature/RyanSaotome.png |
I
don't think they stand out at all. They look like two frosty shadows or
something. It looks like some effort was put into that pic, and I do
appreciate that, but I still don't think it looks very good. --- Yoblazer: http://i32.tinypic.com/zlf1w7.gif Watch and you'll see... someday I'll be... part of your world! |
I
imagine its probably the same kinda thing that happened with the Boss
pic today... it looks awesome if you're already a fan of the characters,
and looks lame if you aren't. --- http://raptr.com/badge/cf898f37d9c30ef120ada6c35e636ad3/fs.png http://myanimelist.net/signature/RyanSaotome.png |
Can
someone please tell us about the quality of the Amaterasu/Orochi
rivalry? I (and I imagine a decent chunk of this topic) know nothing
about it. --- Yoblazer: http://i43.tinypic.com/25z1non.jpg Watch and you'll see... someday I'll be... part of your world! |
I'm not so confident in Ammy after seeing that picture. Tom Nook looks like he will kick my ass if I don't vote for him. Then again it's Tom Nook. --- Ngamer64: Zylo, you're making less sense every day. Black Turtle > Me |
From: Zylo the wolf | #061 Yeah, he'll kick your ass AND foreclose on your house. --- Yoblazer: http://i44.tinypic.com/5nw45i.jpg Watch and you'll see... someday I'll be... part of your world! |
PartOfYourWorld posted... Can someone please tell us about the quality of the Amaterasu/Orochi rivalry? I (and I imagine a decent chunk of this topic) know nothing about it. Unfortunately, I don't know anything about it. But come on, he's up against Animal Crossing. Then he's getting fed to Link in round 2. --- PSN - Aevio "I'm on a Goomba." - BlackMageJawa |
Why is Nook and Redd a rivalry? Because they both sell furniture? I don't remember them interacting in the original game. |
Yeah,
but I'm not sure about the Spread line (65%). If Ammy is an "appeal
character" like Ezio, then this format might hurt her as well,
especially since Nook and Redd got an eye-popping and extremely
appealing picture. --- Yoblazer: http://i32.tinypic.com/zlf1w7.gif Watch and you'll see... someday I'll be... part of your world! |
From: pjbasis | #064 They're competitors in sales! But they're in mostly because Mer rallied for them and there aren't many good rivalries to choose from. --- "So cold. I am always by your side." "There ain't no gettin' off of this train we on!" |
I
think Redd may have taken some cheap shots at old Nook's expense. And
yeah, that's pretty much why it's a rivalry, and a genius one at that. --- Yoblazer: http://i32.tinypic.com/zlf1w7.gif Watch and you'll see... someday I'll be... part of your world! |
PartOfYourWorld posted... Yeah, but I'm not sure about the Spread line (65%). If Ammy is an "appeal character" like Ezio, then this format might hurt her as well, especially since Nook and Redd got an eye-popping and extremely appealing picture. I only put half up on Ammy, because I'm not sure about her ability to blow out Nook. That said, I wouldn't be surprised if she did. I'm not entirely sure Nook could beat Vyse. --- PSN - Aevio "I'm on a Goomba." - BlackMageJawa |
Tom Nook would probably beat Vyse, unfortunately. Nook isn't complete turbo fodder, at least. --- http://www.gifsoup.com/view/593815/frasier-and-niles-dance-o.gif |
Talking
about the more "obscure" kinda rivalries... why didn't Tifa/Aeris make
the contest as love rivals, anyway? Cath/Kath made it, and I have a
really hard time believing that some of the chumps in the vote ins got
more nominations. Did Bacon just disqualify them? --- http://raptr.com/badge/cf898f37d9c30ef120ada6c35e636ad3/fs.png http://myanimelist.net/signature/RyanSaotome.png |
From: FateStayAlbion | #070 They probably would have, but they hardly got any noms on Board 8. --- http://i.minus.com/iH9vIGOBoyTQ2.gif |
just got back from dinner and looked at the Link pic closely oh my god who did it --- ~Zen |
0 for 4 today on pics well, 1 for 4 but the fact that it's Tom Nook makes it 0 for 4 --- xyzzy |
Transparency Link! Yeah, that pic overall is pretty bad. --- - |
Amaterasu shouldn't have any problems with weird Animal Crossing things. --- peace comes from within |
thank you tranny! I'll take that as a compliment or something --- ~Zen |
LeonhartFour posted... Regardless of what people say about Tidus, I'd still take him directly over any other FFX character not named Auron. I'll take Yuna over Tidus anyday now --- Link's is pretty much the video game equivalent of the Jesus story. -- Yoblaser |

I'll take Yuna over Tidus anyday now Same. I'd take Rikku over him as well, and wouldn't be confident either way about Jecht. Yuna and Jecht both came out below Tidus on the adjusted x-stats. But I suppose "indirect strength" doesn't necessarily mean anything in direct matchups, especially between characters who are less than 1% apart. --- PSN - Aevio "I'm on a Goomba." - BlackMageJawa |
The
thing with Tidus is that I can see him being Reverse SFF'd by others in
his same game. I feel a lot of Tidus' strength is because he's the MC
of FFX, not because people like him. So if you give people another FFX
option they like more, they'll vote for them. --- http://raptr.com/badge/cf898f37d9c30ef120ada6c35e636ad3/fs.png http://myanimelist.net/signature/RyanSaotome.png |
I'd
take Tidus to win in those matches. Yuna would rely on FFX-2, Jecht
would rely on Dissidia, and there's no way I'm trusting Rikku with
FFX-SFF. Tidus isn't great, but FFX is his story. --- http://img812.imageshack.us/img812/3492/eponaharr.jpg Nominate E P O N A. |
People are overrating how much FFX fans hate Tidus. He's not getting rSFF'd. --- "I can set you free, mate." "My freedom was forfeit long ago!" |
I could see Yuna potentially beating Tidus 1v1, but not any of the others. Well, Auron would crush, but everyone knows that. --- peace comes from within |

Match XVII: (1) Link/Ganondorf vs. (8) Arthas/Illidan Previous Contest Link – 2010 79.81% against Thrall 71.79% against Alucard 67.28% against Mega Man X 71.13% against Luigi 70.23% against Sonic the Hedgehog 64.57% against Mario 53.54% against Cloud Strife Ganondorf – 2010 58.65% against Mewtwo 63.83% against Ken 42.82% against Sonic the Hedgehog Arthas – 2010 39.43% against Kefka Palazzo Illidan – N/A N/A Analysis According to the board Link and Ganondorf is by far the favourite to win the contest, however with the results of the first half of the round already in people have been questioning whether or not Link and Ganondorf have the rivalry power to do so. Unless Link and Ganondorf get an abysmal result I don’t think this match is going to tell us much about their chances at winning the contest. Arthas was actually well respected in four-ways and even though Kefka received a Dissidia boost his performance in a one on one setting was terrible, which was matched by World of Warcraft in the Game of the Decade contest. It isn’t too surprising considering the low player rate in World of Warcraft and Warcraft in general on GameFAQs. In the vote-in the pair didn’t look to be world beaters either. The major reason to doubt Link’s ability to win this contest is that he is essentially going solo in this contest. From 2004 we saw Link give probably the highest degree of SFF ever seen with only Link vs. Zelda having a chance to be higher which tells us that most Ganondorf fans like Link more which means he isn’t going to add too much strength to this poll. In terms of a rivalry they are better than many of the ones in the contest and they are iconic, but I think most people would agree that it is far from the best. Link did fail to break 80% on Thrall so maybe he’ll struggle to break 75%, but this contest has been favouring blowouts and I feel that this will be the same. Link has a good chance at going for the blowout of the contest which is currently held by Mario and Bowser. charmander6000’s Bracket: Link/Ganondorf > Arthas/Illidan charmander6000’s Prediction: Link/Ganondorf wins, 84.29% - 15.71% --- BOP Results: http://www.freewebs.com/charmander6000/Rivalry%20BOP.xls Rivalry Rumble: 14/14 Today: Chris/Wesker & Big Boss/The Boss |
I would take Yuna over Tidus. --- caps |
I've
just started playing Final Fantasy X, so I can't say whether I like
Tidus or not. The only thing I've known before playing it, was the
laughing scene. --- Official Marth of the SSBU Board Sign here http://bit.ly/qqDDST and copy this to your sig if you want Majora's Mask 3D. |
Yuna over Tidus is feasible, but I wouldn't take it. But if Tidus lost, it wouldn't be because he got rSFF'd. It'd be because Yuna was stronger to begin with. --- http://img267.imageshack.us/img267/2369/mythbattlers.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v516/Sensui22/1248835958206.png |

COMEBACK TIME PUT UP THE VOTE BARRIERS --- My Japanese alter-ego. Hey all this is Bartz btw. |

So...will the Bosses be the bracket favorites overall or will this be our first "upset" in terms of prediction percentage? --- http://www.gifsoup.com/view/593815/frasier-and-niles-dance-o.gif |
LeonhartFour posted... So...will the Bosses be the bracket favorites overall or will this be our first "upset" in terms of prediction percentage? I think Tidus/Jecht will be a slight favorite. Many casual bracketmakers will just see the higher seed and know that they needed a vote in to make the contest, so that won't instill confidence in their win. --- http://raptr.com/badge/cf898f37d9c30ef120ada6c35e636ad3/fs.png http://myanimelist.net/signature/RyanSaotome.png |
definite upset. I'd say 35%. --- xyzzy |
Agreed. It's the 2-seed and it's Final Fantasy. TONIGHT WE LAUGH AT CASUALS, GENTLEMEN. IT HAS BEEN TOO LONG. --- Yoblazer: http://8board.webs.com/ariel.jpg Watch and you'll see... someday I'll be... part of your world! |
If Link gets under 80 percent in the first hour I'm calling time of death. |
yoblazer is waiting for fire off yet another salvo shot. What number are we on now? --- http://img600.imageshack.us/img600/8718/leonflowchart.png |
What realistic number would Link have to post in order to end the salvo shots? --- Pobody's nerfect. |
95% --- "Stay with me until the end. Please." "Not until the end. Always." |
