Match XXXV: (1) Mega Man X/Zero vs. (5) Bartz Klauser/Gilgamesh Previous Round Mega Man X/Zero – 80.45% Captain Falcon/Black Shadow – 19.55% Guybrush Threepwood/LeChuck – 35.76% Bartz Klauser/Gilgamesh – 64.25% Analysis Mega Man X and Zero had a rather impressive performance last round showcasing that they are among the strongest pairs in the contest. While Bartz and Gilgamesh performed better than expected I would argue that they are by far the weakest pair remaining in the contest and could be facing the biggest blowout of the round despite SFF matches being present. While the large win may hint that Bartz and Gilgamesh may have some strength, even considering the opponent I think the blowout is more of an illusion due to how weak their first round match was. Guybrush and LeChuck are probably so unknown to a large portion of GameFAQs that just simply having the knowledge of Dissidia could have swayed many voters that just know Bartz, but don’t really care for him. These apathy votes are going to disappear rather quickly in this match all that will be left are the handful of Final Fantasy V fans and the people that liked him in Dissidia. I honestly feel that Mega Man and Zero can get a higher score this round than what they had against Falcon and Shadow. Even if they do fail they should be able to at least triple this pair as both Mega Man X and Zero would destroy the pair individually and the rivalry between Bartz and Gilgamesh doesn’t compete with what Mega Man X and Zero have. charmander6000’s Bracket: Mega Man X/Zero > Bartz Klauser/Gilgamesh charmander6000’s Prediction: Mega Man X/Zero wins, 80.88% - 19.12% --- BOP Results: http://www.freewebs.com/charmander6000/Rivalry%20BOP.xls Rivalry Rumble: 33/34 Today: Kirby/Meta Knight |
I'm
hoping X/Zero and Sub-Zero/Scorpion absolutely destroy it these next
couple days just so we can potentially have something to look forward to
next round. --- http://i52.tinypic.com/2zfiu09.gif http://i54.tinypic.com/10729w2.gif |

Bad
performance? I think people are underestimating Bartz/Gilgy here. We
saw what Dissidia did for Kefka/Terra. I think my oracle was 77% or so. --- Game of the decade? More like Guru of the decade mirite? |

BlAcK TuRtLe posted... Bad performance? I think people are underestimating Bartz/Gilgy here. We saw what Dissidia did for Kefka/Terra. I think my oracle was 77% or so.

This
is about what we expected from X/Zero in this match, so I wouldn't call
it a bad performance. Of course, X/Zero should collapse near the end
of the night vote and into the morning vote. --- Luster Soldier --- ~Shield Bearer~ | ~Data Analyst~ Popular at school, but not as cool as BlAcK TuRtLe, Guru Champ! |
Vincent
got the same percentage on Guybrush as X/Zero are getting on
Bartz/Gilgamesh right now, so.......doubling Vincent would be really
good! Really really good! --- 2002 Link, 2003 Cloud, 2004 Link, 2005 Link, 2006 Link, 2008 Link, 2010 Link, 2011 Cloud. Link 6, Cloud 2 |

The perfects weren't fooled on this one. Nearly all of them get the match right again and they once again do quite a bit better than the -1s.

77% is an okay score, but Europe (UK) is not going to be kind to him in a few hours. --- BOP Results: http://www.freewebs.com/charmander6000/Rivalry%20BOP.xls Rivalry Rumble: 33/36 Today: Mega Man X/Zero |
should end up at exactly 75.02% AS EXPECTED --- ~ Rivalry Rumble Oracle Challenge ~ Rank - 29th Today's Prediction: X/Zero - 75.02% |
I
dunno if Bartz/Gilgamesh will do all that much damage to him since old
FF games aren't very popular there either. X/Zero finished less than
half a percent from where he was at the end of the first hour to the end
of the match against Falcon. --- http://i.minus.com/iH9vIGOBoyTQ2.gif |
Europe hates Falcon too. --- BOP Results: http://www.freewebs.com/charmander6000/Rivalry%20BOP.xls Rivalry Rumble: 33/36 Today: Mega Man X/Zero |
And Europe doesn't really like old FF either. That's kind of the point. --- "I couldn't stand a day without a past or future. I need to live each moment to keep fighting here and now." |
Damn,
FFV pair doin' work here! Really, this doesn't reflect poorly on X/Zero
or anything, IMO; but even still, I'm hoping the MK pair does great
tomorrow, so that some upset hype gets going. --- "Claire likes to say 'You can be part of the problem, or part of the solution.' But I happen to believe you can be both." - Phil Dunphy |
From: TheCodeisBosco | #437 ...what? I really don't get you people! --- http://img.imgcake.com/leonpngpe.png http://img.imgcake.com/squalloweenpngem.png |
And Europe doesn't really like old FF either. That's kind of the point. But FFV was released in Europe/NA for the same system as opposed to the other old school Square games which were never released in Europe for the SNES. --- "What's wrong with bootblacking? We like it very much!" This is Yesmar. |
From: LOLContests | #439 FFV wasn't released in Europe or the U.S. until FF Anthologies. FFV is almost certainly the weakest FF out of all the ones we've had in this contest, and by a decent margin, at that. --- "I couldn't stand a day without a past or future. I need to live each moment to keep fighting here and now." |
I'd say Bartz gets most of his strength from Dissidia anyways. --- BOP Results: http://www.freewebs.com/charmander6000/Rivalry%20BOP.xls Rivalry Rumble: 33/36 Today: Mega Man X/Zero |
My
point is that FFIV and FFVI perform worse in Europe relative to the
U.S. because they were never released for the SNES there. FFV does not
that issue relative to the U.S. because it was released for the SNES in
neither region. --- "What's wrong with bootblacking? We like it very much!" This is Yesmar. |
It's not really an issue of relative to the U.S. It's an issue of relative to MMX/Zero. --- "The great GF...Bahamut." "...GF? I...? Using my powers...It is you humans...I fear..." |
Huh, at first I thought X/Zero only jumped up a few hundredths of a percent. Then I did a double take and saw that they jumped up over a full percent there. --- http://img.imgcake.com/leonpngpe.png http://img.imgcake.com/squalloweenpngem.png |
Pretty
much any character can overperform in Europe if they are up against
Mega Man (or its other characters) just because Europe (mainly the UK)
hates Mega Man. --- Luster Soldier --- ~Shield Bearer~ | ~Data Analyst~ Popular at school, but not as cool as BlAcK TuRtLe, Guru Champ! |
From: -LusterSoldier- | #445 Oh, I'm not saying X/Zero's percentage won't drop overnight. But it's not like facing off against Sonic or something here. --- http://img.imgcake.com/leonpngpe.png http://img.imgcake.com/squalloweenpngem.png |
From: -LusterSoldier- | #445 We don't hate Megaman he's just absolutely and utterly irrelevant in every way. Nobody's heard of him. --- http://farm6.static.flickr.com/5261/5567070428_ee1dcd3590.jpg |
X/Zero
will drop off overnight, but the beauty is that with a 24 hour match,
they will gain everything back and more with the day/SNV --- Game of the decade? More like Guru of the decade mirite? |
