Wasn't that just KP, and then everyone yelled at him that Mega Man was going to get 60-40'd, then KP got mad everyone wasn't hyping a dumb upset?

I seem to remember a few people. It stands out because I'm usually all about the Mega Man upsets, but I wasn't touching that with a 10 foot pole.

There were actually 29 people in the Guru who took Red > MMX!

I meant Mega Man > Mario after Mega/Hayabusa.

I thought those were her knees or something? People said she's sitting in the "knees against the torso" position in that picture.

Pretty sure I did that because my Oracle was already toast, and I wanted the novelty of calling it if it did happen. Feel free to dig through old stats topics in case I'm wrong though.

At least I correctly called Ness and Pac-Man

Because 60% on Terra/Kefka isn't good.

well so much for the idea that maybe X/Zero would even put up a fight on Mario/Bowser.

Not impressed at all by this showing, though the Ninjas look legit amazing because of this and DK too

In defense of Samus vs. FFVI, We've seen Kefka in a form he actually has in the SNES version of FFVI only once before and he was clearly far stronger than normal, and we've seen a character far more popular than Kefka underperform horribly due to not being his usual form.

It's 60% on Tidus/Jecht vs 61% on Terra/Kefka. Based on what I saw outta the four in 2010, I gotta take Terra and Kefka's team.

I think Samus is the one who is ragging.

A better way to put it is 56.5% on Chris/Wesker vs. 61% on Sprite Terra/Kefka, and we've already seen Sprite Kefka 70-30 Wesker before Dissidia.

Wesker back then was a complete joke. He got held below 60% by Luca Blight. Both Terra's and Kefka's best matches came without sprites (2010, vs. Squall and Bowser).

70/30 Wesker before Dissidia and before RE5.

Remember, Wesker lost to Lloyd Irving in the next contest.

#139 | WarThaNemesis2 | Posted 12/6/2011 10:41:51 AM | message detail
A) Terra's never had a sprite picture.
B) 2010 was the first year of post-Dissidia FF, so obviously characters perform better when they're stronger, so I'm not sure what your point is.
C) Wesker did better against Lloyd than he was expected to do on Mithos through Kefka. This kinda supports the idea that Sprite Kefka is far stronger than normal!

Well, I don't have a problem saying FFVI characters do better with sprites.

I don't think Samus doubles them or something with Dissidia artwork though.

If you accept FFVI does better with sprites than normal, there's not much leeway before things look really, really good for Samus getting out of the fourpack (barring Trainer silliness because we still have no real idea where they are relative to Bosses/Fighters/Ridley).

I'm taking Samus to win against the Bosses (very reluctantly), mostly because I believe that performance against Terra/Kefka is better than the performance against Chris/Wesker, all things considered. It's hard to imagine Chris/Wesker pushing 44-45% on Samus.

I hope the end results somehow make it clear that Sub/Scorp > Ryu/Ken, even if Trainers lose to Fighters.

I don't care if MK is an inferior game to SF, Sub/Scorp were far more appealing to 10 year old me.
