So
the 2-seeds go up against the 17- and 26-seeds. Don't expect there will
be many characters that far down the seeding roster who could really
trouble any of them, except perhaps GlaDOS or Ezio. --- We are living our lives Abound with so much information |
Interesting 3 seed list --- XBL GT: Demon Ninja X2 "There comes a time in every man's or woman's life where they have to make **** up to cover their ass." - Hazama |
WELCOME TO THE LEAGUE OF DRAVEN! These 3 seeds just made my day! |
*Keeps reading through seed list* Oh my god Shulk 3 seed yessssssssss KamikazePotato's right hand is fistpumping furiously right now and he doesn't know why. EDIT: AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHH 3 SEED YU AAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH |
Let the records show I called Draven being a 3rd seed --- Oh SuperNiceDog's doing it again dude. SuperNiceDog, you ain't no pimp dude |
At this rate, we could get Reyn and Dunban! YOU WILL KNOW OUR NAMES |
Draven Chrom Elizabeth Shulk Yu Narukami (huh, does this mean multiple Persona 4 characters?) Lee Everett Dragonborn Creeper John Marston --- We are living our lives Abound with so much information |
Draven in Link's division Chrom in Sonic's division Elizabeth in Sephiroth's division Shulk in Snake's division Yu Narukami in Cloud's division Lee Everett in Crono's division Dragonborn in Samus's division Creeper in Mario's division John Marston in Mega Man's division --- Luster Soldier --- ~Shield Bearer~ | ~Data Analyst~ Popular at school, but not as cool as SuperNiceDog, Guru Champ! |
Ahahahaha, freakin' Creeper is a 3 seed? That's gonna be a casual bait match if I ever saw one! |
Awesome 3 Seeds --- http://i498.photobucket.com/albums/rr345/Rakaputra/B8%20Girls%202012/pjbas.png SuperNiceDog - 1, pjbasis - 0 |
John Marston ridin' the LFF all the way to the title, book it --- Fine! I'll go to the store and get your Goddamn drain cleaner! |
wow that is an awful list --- ... |
Pretty sure more than half of those 3 seeds wont make it out of round one, regardless of opponents... --- Text and stuff and bla |
it's conceivable that every 3 seed will lose in round 1. that's nuts --- xyzzy |
Holy fodder 3 seeds, Batman! --- http://i259.photobucket.com/albums/hh293/zukiraphaera/war-sig-1.png RIP Paul Bearer. Ohhhh nooooo. :( |
So yeah, quick 3 seed analysis: -Draven: Fodder unless the LoL community backs him and RIOT tells people to vote for him, which could happen. In which case expect something out of the Gamespot contest with Gordon Freeman and Steam. -Chrom: Low midcarder. Not making any waves. -Elizabeth: Same. -Shulk: Possible midcard? No clue, but if we get another X trailer I'd put some money on him to make noise. -Yu: Best ****ing 3 seed, so good -Lee: Welp, Crono officially got a softie path I think, this ain't scaring anybody. -Dragonborn: Turbofodder or surprise strong character? You decide. Not sure what to think of, silent protagonists do good on this site. -Creeper: ...Yyyyyyeah, Mario's still safe from the upset now. -Marston: Wait, people still remember RDR? Well I'll be. Did not expect this at all! |
Elizabeth is gonna win dammit --- http://i498.photobucket.com/albums/rr345/Rakaputra/B8%20Girls%202012/pjbas.png SuperNiceDog - 1, pjbasis - 0 |

Dragonborn can win actually. --- Oh SuperNiceDog's doing it again dude. SuperNiceDog, you ain't no pimp dude |
The strongest three seed is the ****ing Creeper are you kidding me? And how the hell is John Marston still relevant? (**** yeah Yu) --- "The people who play Final Fantasy 7 actually have lives and dont NEED polls" ~MajinUltima SuperNiceDog: Bracket: Good, Taste: Bad |
swirIdude posted... The strongest three seed is the ****ing Creeper are you kidding me? And how the hell is John Marston still relevant? Creeper is fodder. If you want the strongest 3 seed without shenanigan potential, it's between Dragonborn, Shulk and Elizabeth. |
yeah
I think Dragonborn is going to get a huge split. some people will take
him to win 2-3 rounds and some will pick him to finish last in his
pairing. --- xyzzy |
KanzarisKelshen posted... Lee: Welp, Crono officially got a softie path I think, this ain't scaring anybody. Why? It's not as if any of the strong characters that could beat him were taken off the table with this update. --- Our eyes were removed For our own safety. |
I don't think Shulk or Elizabeth will necessarily be any stronger than Chrom --- Woop woop woop woop woop |
Creeper
and Dragonborn have at least lower-midcard strength; I imagine they'll
do some damage. Not enough to beat they're NN division-rep, but
something. Lee, Shulk and maybe Elizabeth just under that. The rest
won't be doing much. --- Will not remove this line of my signature until the Seahawks, Jazz or Rockies win a title (Started 5-16-09) SuperNiceDog: Guru winner |
Pondos posted... I don't think Shulk or Elizabeth will necessarily be any stronger than Chrom Let's say Chrom is Ike levels of strong. I think Shulk can better that, and Elizabeth can be about as strong as Big Daddy, probably. Big Daddy vs Ike, who ya got? |
TheArkOfTurus posted... KanzarisKelshen posted...Lee: Welp, Crono officially got a softie path I think, this ain't scaring anybody. Just talking about what we have so far and overreacting 'cause it's fun Ark. Obviously this doesn't preclude Vincent sneaking into Crono's division to smash him again or something! |
GloriousSweater posted... At this rate, we could get Reyn and Dunban! Let's not lose our 'eads, though! --- Black Turtle did a pretty good job. |
Pfft... John Marston would kick all of those character's asses. --- BOP Results: http://www.freewebs.com/charmander6000/Rivalry%20BOP.xls Congrats to SuperNiceDog for winning the guru contest. |
Curse of the 3 seed returns. --- Leonhart posting from his phone |
I'm surprised Yuri Lowell couldn't get a higher seed than some of these guys. Really? --- Hey, its that SuperNiceDog! Congrats to the Guru 2011 winner |
BK_Sheikah00 posted... I'm surprised Yuri Lowell couldn't get a higher seed than some of these guys. Really? People love them some manly jRPG protagonists over guys who look like pretty girls obviously. |
Yuri has been in a contest before so he wasn't eligible for a 3 seed! --- [NO BARKLEY NO PEACE] |
I
have a feeling that the bottom section of each division is going to be
all new characters. All of the 3 seeds being new characters doesn't make
much sense otherwise. If I'm wrong though, they are all going to get destroyed. |
http://www.gamefaqs.com/boards/8-gamefaqs-contests/66374236 Interesting topic from Bacon. --- Luster Soldier --- ~Shield Bearer~ | ~Data Analyst~ Popular at school, but not as cool as SuperNiceDog, Guru Champ! |
Who the hell are these characters? The all newbies theory sounds solid. --- "What's the matter with bootblacking? We both like it very much!" This is Yesmar. |
LOLContests posted... Who the hell are these characters? You don't play many games do you |
I wonder how behind on the times you have to be to not know any of the 3 Seeds Probably as behind the times as most of GameFAQs is --- Black Turtle did a pretty good job. |
Er,
on second though maybe not about the all newbies theory. Would ruin the
3-way idea for the Divisional Finals, as they would almost all
certainly lose. --- "What's the matter with bootblacking? We both like it very much!" This is Yesmar. |
KamikazePotato posted... I wonder how behind on the times you have to be to not know any of the 3 Seeds I've barely played video games in 5 years! There's your answer to that! --- "What's the matter with bootblacking? We both like it very much!" This is Yesmar. |
-LusterSoldier- posted... Draven in Link's division Oh my G-d. It's like CBVIII all over again, only with niche RPG characters instead of LOLFPS characters. Still surprised not to see Yuri Lowell yet, but we're unlikely to see any of these guys in Round 3, and a few of them will probably be gone in Round 1. Though with the way this thing has gone thus far, it's probably the 7-12 winners they should be scared of more than the 4-seeds. Or is that the 15-seeds? ...Suddenly this all makes sense. Board 8 probably has a fairly large portion of the noms (although the fact that Yuri's not top-3 is reason to question that). How many Board 8 regulars actually nominate the contest regulars? For the most part, we trade votes with each other for our "niche" contestants that we want in the lower seeds and let the casuals take care of putting the regulars in. I think probably the least "niche" thing on my nomination list was probably either Barret or Otacon. So if casual noms are down...so are the seeds of the "strong" characters. --- "Everyone has a dick although it may not be physical.

GoldSlime35 posted... I have a feeling that the bottom section of each division is going to be all new characters. All of the 3 seeds being new characters doesn't make much sense otherwise. That...does sound solid. Back when we were considering what the gimmick would be, I actually considered the possibility of a half-returner, half-newbie bracket. Of course, having each division divided rather than dividing the whole bracket is better for this supposed "celebration of the Noble Nine" thing, but... Yeah, I can see it. --- "Everyone has a dick although it may not be physical. You just have to learn to access it within your mind." - blindhobo13 |
Was there a big push for John Marston? I'm surprised to see him there. --- You think this is over because I am dead. It's not over. The games have just begun. |
TsunamiXXVIII posted... GoldSlime35 posted...I have a feeling that the bottom section of each division is going to be all new characters. All of the 3 seeds being new characters doesn't make much sense otherwise. What does it make the middle division, then? 'Mixed bag'? |
Was there a big push for John Marston? I'm surprised to see him there. Red Dead Redemption was one of the biggest games in 2010, even three years later he'd have enough casual support. As a 3 seed maybe not, but I'm surprised with the entire group. --- BOP Results: http://www.freewebs.com/charmander6000/Rivalry%20BOP.xls Congrats to SuperNiceDog for winning the guru contest. |
Tagging this topic for when I get a chance to catch up. --- http://img.imgcake.com/drakeryn/alecjpguz.jpg http://img.imgcake.com/drakeryn/alecjpgja.jpg |
TsunamiXXVIII posted... GoldSlime35 posted...I have a feeling that the bottom section of each division is going to be all new characters. All of the 3 seeds being new characters doesn't make much sense otherwise. Yeah. The problem with it is that all the division finals except Crono/Sora would have obvious winners. So I'm not really sure if he'd do it. The first 2 rounds would be crazy though. Tons of matches with just new characters would be tough to predict, plus all the stronger returning characters would be bunched into less spots instead of being spread out more. |
It's
also possible that that there's one new character in each match ala
2008, and that it goes by seeds. Like all of the 3/6/9/12/15/18/21/24/27
seeds are newbies. I saw someone in another topic one point out that not only are these guys all newbies, they're not even in the same game as a previous entrant, but do we really have 80 some characters that that applies to? --- "What's the matter with bootblacking?

I am scared of LoL already. Dem streamz. --- Dr voltchball - best in the world. |
