Red/Blue still gets to make a run at Cloud/Sephiroth. Probably won't win but with the board vote they may be able to pretend they can for a while.

Would you like to use CUT on this lead?

I didn't expect that.

Look at the strength of the Metroid series, then look at the strength of Samus/Ridley vs. Samus alone.

Look at the strength of the Kirby series, then look at the strength of Kirby/Meta-Knight vs. Kirby himself.

Characters relying on multiple sources for their strength disappointed in their rivalries because those rivalries generally don't represent all their sources. Heck, even Solid Snake looked off, and that's probably because as 'good' of a rivalry as Liquid/Solid is, Solid Snake draws strength from four other games that Liquid Snake has zero real appearances in. The Bosses looked real good (same with Ryu/Ken) because the rivalry is relevant to pretty much everything they draw strength from.

Edit: Not to mention that rivalries with one beast and one piece of crap faltered compared to rivalries with two characters who are liked equally, as seen in Subs/Scorp and Red/Blue for the positive, and Leon/Ada being the prime example of the crash.

Augh. Knew this would happen. Luckily the powers that be aren't fully behind Pokemon this time so I'm fairly sure Mario can still win.

No problem!
This is a cute and pop genocide of love!
#272 | FateStayAlbion | Posted 12/16/2011 9:27:53 PM | message detail
So say the Trainers somehow win here. Is there any chance they could get a big enough bandwagon to take down Link himself? I doubt it, but weirder things have happened

It's too bad Pokemon doesn't have it's usual questionably fair pictures. If somehow Red/Blue manage to stay this close they might have made the difference.

Hey, if you want to think going wire to wire with Mario means they have a shot at Link, go ahead!

Red/Blue vs. Link/Ganon would have a horde of sprites, which means I give Red/Blue like a 3% chance at taking down Link/Ganon if they win here.

If Cloud/Seph and Red/Blue both win though I give Red/Blue a 40% chance to win it all.

Obviously their current strength doesn't indicate that, but remember L-Block. It went from 57% on Snake to 53% on Link in one day. Bandwagons can really make big differences

Yeah, they can make big differences when you get the internet behind you.

When we see an outside source rallying for Red/Blue, then we'll talk
