Omitted scores got it wrong.

Another larger chunk of perfect alts just showed up on the Top 50. However, with only 1 perfect getting the match wrong, they would have beaten all the other tiers by quite a bit anyways. More or less a fairly normal chart.

1 user fell off the Top 50. biggen14 did not have Sub-Zero vs. Scorpion winning the match.

Nice damage control. "This is just an SFF match" uh huh.

I'd honestly would've been more impressed had Red/Blue gone for the doubling, at least you could argue no SFF.

Without SFF I think this match is about 65-35. Like I really don't think Luigi/Waluigi are very good.

Then you were wrong then, and are still wrong. Cecil is not fodder. Cecil is basically equal to Knuckles.

Also that comment from charmander is basically the worst thing I've ever read in the stats topic, for the record.

65-35 means Red/Blue likely are the 1v1 equivalent Sonic the Hedgehog assuming Sonic and Knuckles had zero SFF. That's pretty damn good KP I don't see what you're complaining about!

I said equivalent, not that it was actually how it works!

Unless you want to argue Cecil/Golbez > Cecil alone, which means Red/Blue is even stronger than that!

#280 | Lopen | Posted 11/22/2011 9:23:23 PM | message detail
What I wanna know is why more people didn't pick him. 48% on Knuckles isn't too far below Luigi. Unless Knuckles dropped for some reason-- which could be considering he's SFF adjusted.

#281 | TheCodeisBosco | Posted 11/22/2011 9:23:23 PM | message detail
I took Luigi/Waluigi to beat these guys. I had Ryu/Ken winning the division, and then beating Samus/Ridley. I believed in GoodTasteFAQs, and I believed in the Waluigi Crotch Chop™.

But even though this is an SFF match, this is the S(tu)FF of legends. Ryu/Ken would need a miracle of Biblical proportions to win next round... and with that in mind, my bracket is toast, and I admit defeat.

So, there's only one thing left for me to do. I'm heading back to whence I came: the happiest place on earth, the motherland, my personal heaven. Tijuana, I'm comin' home!

Regardless of the implications for their next round, this match indicates that these guys are probably pretty high on the Nintendo SFF ladder. Samus/Ridley better watch out.

Really though, we're 5 matches into the Fighters/Trainers/Samus/Bosses four-pack, and all we know is that anyone who predicted they would be weak is wrong. I haven't seen anything yet to make people who took whoever lose faith.

They just need to not flop. Haven't decided on the percent, but something like what Sub-Zero/Scorpion got would be fine.

Ryu/Ken pulling a near-doubling would be real good. I don't think I'd take anything from their performance we don't already assume unless they get above 68 or below 62.

Around 65%.

I expected this sort of performance by the Trainers. So, anything around 65% will have me comfortable with my pick of Ryu/Ken > the Trainers.
