I think Alucard can outdo MM's percentage, but not by much. I wouldn't feel too confident either way there and assume similar results.
#102 | JJH777 | Posted 12/9/2011 9:07:41 PM | message detail
Assuming that like 90% of the perfect battle brackets voted for Alucard/Dracula as a bracket vote this could change extremely fast.

Well, it was fun. I made it to the top 75 or so, and that's eons better then I've ever done before.

Like I said previously, I would rather go down in a blaze of glory then end up perfect and getting nothing.

Still, damn you CT. The one time I actually bet on you, you fail miserably.

At very best, it stays at the same percentage as it is now by the end of the match. This board loves its CT

Most likely, Alucard jumps like 3% by the end.

Aludrac will almost certainly outperform MM/Wily against Linkondorf. There's a lot less SFF involved there.

No megamqn is just weak. there might be a little though. not a lot. he been sucking the whole contest.

That's pretty much why I never thought CT had a shot. Phoenix had more reason to win this division than Frogus ever did.

If Link breaks 80 in a non Divisional round, that is the most ever, right? I ask because he is probably going to bury the unholy **** out of the Vampires.

You mean a Round 4 blowout? Yes. The current record is 75.98% set by Link against Scorpion in 2k2.

And to think this was the same Alucard that got Last Place Factored by Crono, Pikachu, and L-Block. It seems almost strange how much stronger Crono is than Frog and Magus (perhaps not to me as a Crono fanboy but that so many CT fans agree with me on this is surprising).

(Yes, Crono wasn't behind, but against FFVII early on, staring down the specter of Crono/Vincent 2007, he was behind by a lot!)

Alucard will hold on. As said, CT's inability to grab the lead at this point is its death knell. This will leave only one perfect bracket in the Guru, and he has Trainers over Mario. Could end up looking like a ****ing genius, but we'll probably end this with no perfects on B8.

No, I meant not in a Divisonal Round. Link vs Scorpion was a Division Final, granted the regions were different with only having 4, but the point stands. I am wondering what is the largest win ever that happened after we had crowned Region/Division Champions.

Well, Frog is always the one who's reliably pulled through in close matches.

But since 2005, we've had Knux/Magus, Sonic/Crono, Crono/Vincent II, CT/Mario 64 twice, Magus/Sandbag, and Crono/Missingno vs. Frog/Axel, Crono/Vincent III, and I suppose you can count Frog/Magus's last round win there, too.

CT's like 2-2 in close matches if you count CT/Mario 3 as relatively close.
