Blue could conceivably win 2 matches as everyone with him in the second round, if he beats Fox, is weak as hell. |
Yeah I don't know about Hero winning that match, but shame about Rinoa. Also no Chris Redfield. wat --- http://i498.photobucket.com/albums/rr345/Rakaputra/B8%20Girls%202012/pjbas.png SuperNiceDog - 1, pjbasis - 0 |
GloriousSweater posted... Not sure how much this has been discussed, but it's looking like Charizard could be the favorite out of his division as Mega Man and Zero could both easily join him in that final match. From there, it's a Nintendo 3way against Mario and Samus. Mario is the favorite there, but who honestly knows; we've seen Pokemon catch fire time and time again. Charizard in the final against Link and Cloud would look so out of place lol And then Zard wins thanks to SWORDSMAN SFF --- Thank you, Eddie Guerrero. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sf527KRaCEc |
Hazama was never the most popular character from BB though, dont see why RAWRgna getting in is a bad thing. Also Screw you Catherine --- Oh SuperNiceDog's doing it again dude. SuperNiceDog, you ain't no pimp dude |
It's official, Magikarp is winning this contest. Seriously, interesting bracket, got most of my characters in, I'm happy with it. Few dodgy matches as already mentioned, but pretty good overall Allen. --- ~ Ringworm ~ |

You have to use his Kratos/Duke value, not his later showings, or you get a skewed picture. |
Could Peach sap Kirby enough to get Terra through? Maybe...? ....Please? :( --- YOU SPOONY BARD! SON OF A SUBMARINER! |
Shoenin_Kakashi posted... Wrex is gonna wreck both of them tbh Cecil = Knuckles. Are you taking Wrex over Knuckles in a match? |
No, TERROR BALTIMORE is pretty screwed Kirby is gonna eat em both --- Oh SuperNiceDog's doing it again dude. SuperNiceDog, you ain't no pimp dude |
When the hell was Cecil = Knux? That implies Cecil > Magus and even Im not crazy enough to believe that --- Oh SuperNiceDog's doing it again dude. SuperNiceDog, you ain't no pimp dude |
Charizard
could still get a boost from X/Y hype albeit not as big as HGSS Release
day+ bandwagon shenanigans. I seem him barely squeaking by
Zelda/Lightning. |
ff6man posted... Could Peach sap Kirby enough to get Terra through? Terra wouldn't beat Peach, and the latter is the definition of 'fanbase leech' after Ganondorf. What makes you think she's going to beat Kirby? |
At least Squall has avoided a bad start. --- http://i2.kym-cdn.com/photos/images/original/000/330/958/a5b.gif |
Shoenin_Kakashi posted... Hazama was never the most popular character from BB though, dont see why RAWRgna getting in is a bad thing. Because Hazama is probably the only BlazBlue character capable of doing anything. Granted it would take a rally and is unlikely but he's probably the only one I could see possibly sneaking a win. Don't get me wrong, I like Ragna. I would have just preferred to see Hazama. --- Crucifying my Oracle average one match at a time |
ff6man posted... Could Peach sap Kirby enough to get Terra through? http://www.gamefaqs.com/poll/index.html?poll=3821 I guess Terra is probably slightly above the fodder line based on her match with Squall. That's definitely not strong enough to beat Kirby, even with LFF from Peach. --- Luster Soldier --- ~Shield Bearer~ | ~Data Analyst~ Popular at school, but not as cool as SuperNiceDog, Guru Champ! |
Phoenix/Marth/Nightmare Holy crap I don't know --- http://i498.photobucket.com/albums/rr345/Rakaputra/B8%20Girls%202012/pjbas.png SuperNiceDog - 1, pjbasis - 0 |

Actually I am pretty sure Hype Dog could have also done something ...DAMNIT WE SHOULD HAVE RALLIED HYPE DOG! --- 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 |
I dont think hell get anywhere near it, but I do want to See Charizard in the finals. As pipe dream as it is. You just cant resist that Fiery Dragon (despite not actually being a Dragon) --- Oh SuperNiceDog's doing it again dude. SuperNiceDog, you ain't no pimp dude |
This bracket is really hard to predict now. Hahaha. --- ~The Dilated One~ |
Oh wow, just seen Wolfs placement too. Well that ruins a debatable match! --- Crucifying my Oracle average one match at a time |
Shoenin_Kakashi posted... When the hell was Cecil = Knux? Knuckles beat Cecil 52-48. It's not an exact 50-50 affair but it's very close. If you asked me to pick between Cecil and Magus, I'd take Cecil in a heartbeat. |
KanzarisKelshen posted... Don't overestimate Charizard. You have to use his Kratos/Duke value, not his later showings, or you get a skewed picture. Even when using his weaker performances as a gauge, he could still have enough power to get through a match in which Mega Man and Zero are handicapping each-other. He won't fold (does Pokemon ever?), and he's the "most" Nintendo of the three, so the MM duo won't be able to use the Nintendo advantage they've held in past matches. |
Dracula finna win the division --- Me_Pie_Three Bulls and Bears all day erreday (Timberwolves are p cool too) |
Jigglypuff > X --- ~The Dilated One~ |
ShatteredElysium posted... Oh wow, just seen Wolfs placement too. Well that ruins a debatable match! Hardly. Wolf is a big ol' leech and Fox has contest strength. Let's assume Blue is EXACTLY as strong as Red, which is doubtful - Fox wins that match 55-45, hardly in doubt. Wolf would have to severely leech Fox's support and Blue would have to heavily overperform relative to what we'd expect of him (a good two steps below his MC, like it happens with Mario/Bowser and the like) to win. I'm taking Fox there, that albatross around his neck ain't big enough. |
GloriousSweater posted... KanzarisKelshen posted...Don't overestimate Charizard. You have to use his Kratos/Duke value, not his later showings, or you get a skewed picture. That's fair, I'm just saying, don't expect super beastmode Zard. Hell...I'm not sure if he wins the Lightning/Zelda match. I'm picking him for it, but can you imagine what happens if Zelda and Zard's fanbases are distinct enough that each pulls a separate portion of the vote? Do you take Charizard to defeat Zelda assuming that happens? |
And
here's something else: Charizard's surprising presence in the final
could give Cloud a better shot at victory than anyone else, even Mario.
It's hard to imagine a more "Link-resistant" Nintendo character than a
supercharged Charziard or Missingno. If need be, Link could probably
SFF-hammer Mario to the tune of 70/30. I doubt he'd be able to do the
same to a hype-riding Charizard. |
Actually,
and about that...didn't Megaman and Zero meet before? In a no-SFF
match, no less? I'm...not so sure about Zard's chances. What if it
happens again? What if Megaman and Zero just go at it full-strength? |
Supercharged ? Block. --- ~The Dilated One~ |
Not
sure if they have released anything on the round format but this is
what the matchups for the complete bracket look like if they do the
first 2 rounds alternating day and night matches. Its a little off on
the alignment on the bottom and for some reason the screen capture
always has that glitch on Zelda and I am too lazy to fix either. =P
Hopefully this is accurate... Blue - Night, Yellow - Day, and Green - Full Day http://i.imgur.com/YGVtbxG.png |
KanzarisKelshen posted... ShatteredElysium posted...Oh wow, just seen Wolfs placement too. Well that ruins a debatable match! The hell are you talking about? Fox is close, but still weaker than Red. I'm guessing Blue is a pretty good step down, but even if Wolf only leeches 20% of Fox's support, thats more than enough. --- Game of the decade? More like Guru of the decade mirite? However, the Guru of the next decade so far is SuperNiceDog |

I doubt he'd be able to do the same to a hype-riding Charizard. Never happening bro. Mario does not lose to bandwagons until the entire internet is behind them. He has too much respect for people to go 'lol jokez so randumb! XD!!!!!11one!' and vote against him. He's the face of gaming, and jokes don't work against the face of gaming if Yoshi/Missingno and Charizard/Mario are any indications. (Oh yeah, and Missingno is losing to Squall, so there!) |
Hype Dog and Hazama (aka Troll Booth Managers) for next battle anyway so when should this be starting (matches I mean) --- 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 |

No information has been released on the round format, but I expect 12-hour matches for the first 2 rounds with 24-hour matches after round 2. --- Luster Soldier --- ~Shield Bearer~ | ~Data Analyst~ Popular at school, but not as cool as SuperNiceDog, Guru Champ! |
BlAcK TuRtLe posted... KanzarisKelshen posted...ShatteredElysium posted...Oh wow, just seen Wolfs placement too. Well that ruins a debatable match! In what world? Fox has a better contest history, he has more wins, and he's beaten tougher adversaries than Red. He even has better xstats if you wanna talk about that, Raw AND adjusted. He's about even with guys like Sub-Zero, Jill and maybe even Leon. Would you take any of those to lose if they had to share a slot with Liu Kang, Sherry and Ashley, respectively? I wouldn't. Piss-weak leeches don't make a difference when there's a big enough strength gap to begin with. |
Fox even with Sub-Zero? Hell no. --- ~The Dilated One~ |
pjbasis posted... Phoenix/Marth/Nightmare Nightmare is weaker than the other two, so take him out. Now ask yourself this: if I told you that Phoenix and Marth are even, and that Nightmare might steal votes from Marth, who do you pick? (Note: if the new Smash trailer is hype and shows Marth off, go with Marth. He's gonna boost from it.) |
I have Blue and Cecil going to Round 3. What am I doing? --- "The people who play Final Fantasy 7 actually have lives and dont NEED polls" ~MajinUltima SuperNiceDog: Bracket: Good, Taste: Bad |
I'm
having a lot of trouble with that Phoenix Wright match. My gut says
Nightmare, but Marth should have a really good shot there too. What is
the consensus on that one? --- Game of the decade? More like Guru of the decade mirite? However, the Guru of the next decade so far is SuperNiceDog |
I
think Nightmare will finish in last place in that match, so don't worry
about him threatening Marth or Phoenix. And Phoenix gets a night
match, so that will only hurt Marth. --- Luster Soldier --- ~Shield Bearer~ | ~Data Analyst~ Popular at school, but not as cool as SuperNiceDog, Guru Champ! |
KanzarisKelshen posted... pjbasis posted...Phoenix/Marth/Nightmare I'm not sure who you are, but you should probably do some research before talking out of your ass in this topic. --- Game of the decade? More like Guru of the decade mirite? However, the Guru of the next decade so far is SuperNiceDog |
X-Stats give it to Marth with 50.87%. So I'm taking Phoenix, and switching to Marth if he's a badass in the SSB4 trailer. --- "The people who play Final Fantasy 7 actually have lives and dont NEED polls" ~MajinUltima SuperNiceDog: Bracket: Good, Taste: Bad |
Dilated Chemist posted... Fox even with Sub-Zero? You'd be surprised! Their stats are consistent with one singular Fox dip in '08 from '06 onwards. And with that exception aside, the result is always the same: narrow Fox win. Surprising I know, but if you think about it it makes sense. Fox should be at around Captain Falcon's level, maybe a little higher or lower, and I'd certainly pick Falcon to beat Subby. |
Wait, people are taking Phoenix there? Or is this another example of Board 8 being stupid with a fad character? --- Game of the decade? More like Guru of the decade mirite? However, the Guru of the next decade so far is SuperNiceDog |
BlAcK TuRtLe posted... KanzarisKelshen posted...pjbasis posted...Phoenix/Marth/Nightmare You might want to hit up the contest histories and run some stats. Marth and Phoenix are projected to be dead even, Nightmare is projected to lose cleanly (as much as 44-56 to Marth), and this stays consistent even if we use lol4ways and not the more reliably '10 stats. Strangeness is only strange until it becomes the norm. |
BlAcK TuRtLe posted... Wait, people are taking Phoenix there? Or is this another example of Board 8 being stupid with a fad character? No, Marth is in theory at that level. I'm taking it with a grain of salt and waiting until the Smash trailer, but there's no reason to think it's not debatable. Marth isn't strong like Ike is. |
Actually,
now that I think of it that match is interesting because...well, what
if Phoenix boosted since '10 too? He did get UMvC3 and now Dual
Destinies. What happens if boost goes against boost? Smash hype is the
most powerful contest force we have these days, but it's something to
think about. |
KanzarisKelshen posted... Dilated Chemist posted...Fox even with Sub-Zero? XD I'll take wins over 2006 Master Chief and Tidus over wins over 4th tier Nintendo characters and obscure Fails characters. And to Fox being equal to Falcon, might wanna look at this: http://board8.wikia.com/wiki/Banjo_vs_Captain_Falcon_vs_Fox_McCloud_vs_Wario_2007 --- Game of the decade?
