Nanis23 posted... So this Dunban ultra fodder or just getting SFF'd to death? It's less than ideal conditions for him in this match, thats for sure. No real need to speculate with Shulk and Reyn around but it'd be very disappointing if the level of Xenoblade support was this low. --- Smurf, the cream of Sonic Fanboyism. |
There are 3 RPG characters here.Vincent is from the most popular RPG series,and the other 2 from not so popular series. --- GameFaqs is NOT the place to go for relationship advice.Nobody here gets any action unless it is their right or left hand.Including me.~Dawn and Dusk~ |
MegatokyoEd posted... Lightning Strikes posted...There is no way Shulk loses to Ratchet. Jak didn't beat Chie by that much. Shulk is surely stronger than her. Anyway, regarding Dunban, accounting for SFF it looks like he'd at least beat Kerrigan, so while he is very weak, he's not that terrible. --- Something something something ^Poorly disguised anti-caps sig |
Isn't Xenoblade the game that the internet ****stormed and had Operation Rainfall and everything? Then I really expected it to be stronger |
Lightning Strikes posted... --Smurf-- posted...ZinsanityCraze posted...Wait, Vincent couldn't even double KOS-MOS, Ganondorf actually scored 70% on her back then. Link, Marth, Lucina, Olimar. Tharja struggled much more than expected. Waluigi is a joke character who probably transcends voting patterns somewhat. --- Smurf, the cream of Sonic Fanboyism. |
I
feel like people who expected much from Xenoblade should remind
themselves that Xenoblade nearly lost to Pokemon Black/White 2. It's a
very small Wii release that only did as well as it did in the GOTY final
(the only time where it showed anything resembling strength) on
reputation. Their characters were always going to be weaker versions of
Tales characters. |
Nanis23 posted... Isn't Xenoblade the game that the internet ****stormed and had Operation Rainfall and everything? It got number 2 in last year's GOTY polls, beating games like Mass Effect 3. It's not the game's strength that is in question. --- Something something something ^Poorly disguised anti-caps sig |
--Smurf-- posted... Lightning Strikes posted...--Smurf-- posted...ZinsanityCraze posted...Wait, Vincent couldn't even double KOS-MOS, Ganondorf actually scored 70% on her back then. Fire Emblem characters and Olimar are fodder. --- Fast Falcon ate my bracket for dinner in the guru contest. |
Okay I think Vincent is starting to warm up now. --- "When your enemies defy you, you must serve them steel and fire. When they go to their knees, however, you must help them back to their feet." |
Yeah,
Xenoblade is that game, but we're talking about a match in which
Vincent (FFVII) is present and even more problematic for Dunban is that
KOS-MOS is here, also from the Xeno series, and almost certainly the
strongest character the series fields here. --- xp1337: Don't you wish there was a spell-checker that told you when you a word out? GotD (219/384) Melee v FFX |
Avoiding a doubling from the star of one of the biggest current-gen game franchisees is disappointing? Lol Fire Emblem characters. --- Currently Playing - Super Metroid, MGS4, Brawl, FFVII, Wind Waker, RE4, SOTC |
--Smurf-- posted... Lightning Strikes posted...--Smurf-- posted...ZinsanityCraze posted...Wait, Vincent couldn't even double KOS-MOS, Ganondorf actually scored 70% on her back then. I don't know what matches you watched. Link was Link. Marth did fine, and Phoenix is basically Nintendo anyway. Lucina also looked fine, that was all Dracula. And Tharja put away the opponent people expected her to lose to easily, it was just that Tina was kind of crazy. The real question mark here though is Olimar. He did waaaaaaaay better than projected. Now Shepard, that was a disappointing performance. --- Something something something ^Poorly disguised anti-caps sig |
Huge
update for Vincent. He is rising fast now that we're out of the board
vote. If he keeps this up, he should break 55%, but 60% is not
happening. --- Luster Soldier --- ~Shield Bearer~ | ~Data Analyst~ Popular at school, but not as cool as SuperNiceDog, Guru Champ! |

If condensed to just Link and Marth it's still two suggestions for Nintendo performing poorly and none against. --- Smurf, the cream of Sonic Fanboyism. |
Lightning Strikes posted... MegatokyoEd posted...Lightning Strikes posted...There is no way Shulk loses to Ratchet. Why is he surely stronger than her? And by enough to beat Ratchet, if he is? Xenoblade sold around the same, if not less than Persona 4. It's release in America was Gamestop only. The only thing we have to say it has strength is the GOTY poll, which I put zero stock in for anything. Especially when it's biggest competition after Borderlands 2 in the final poll was the game that inspired the entire internet to rage in fury. Don't forget that Mass Effect 3 not only easily beat it in the poll with more options but Xenoblade struggled to barely beat Walking Dead. --- Demyx is better than Axel. http://www.last.fm/user/crazydom |
Lightning Strikes posted... --Smurf-- posted...Lightning Strikes posted...--Smurf-- posted...ZinsanityCraze posted...Wait, Vincent couldn't even double KOS-MOS, Ganondorf actually scored 70% on her back then. Right, right so the Nintendo characters just looked bad because of strong Phoenix, Dracula and Tiny performances rather than weakness on their side? They're the constant and everyone from different fanbases are the unexpected anomalies? It's all perspective at this point with limited evidence but the fact that every non-fodder character performance by Nintendo in this contest has been underlined by a "well the victor was just stronger than expected" should be setting off a few alarm bells. --- Smurf, the cream of Sonic Fanboyism. |
I really don't know what to think about Vincent performance here If Dunban is LFFing KOS MOS,then she can be only 200 votes apart from Vincent Which would mean that in 1vs1 he would only...52/48 her? |
Smurf, Yoshi did great. Sonic and Megaman are basically Nintendo and dominated as well. Who was expecting great performances from the Fire Emblem cast? --- Fast Falcon ate my bracket for dinner in the guru contest. |
Okay.
Waluigi. Tharja and Olimar, as said. Yoshi was the big one, great
performance. Even Jigglypuff, given her dreadful vote-in performance a
few years back. I really don't get why those two either. Getting 70% in a
3-way with a character from your own game in the poll is kind of nuts. Nintendo is being Nintendo. I see no clear change one way or the other. --- Something something something ^Poorly disguised anti-caps sig |
Nanis23 posted... I really don't know what to think about Vincent performance here Xenoblade is gutter trash. --- Fast Falcon ate my bracket for dinner in the guru contest. |
Even
if Nintendo has theoretically looked weaker this year (which I'm not
sure I agree with), what's the endgame for this discussion here? There
weren't a ton of debatable matches that involved Nintendo characters in
the first place. Link's still not going to lose. It doesn't really
matter. --- i'll do rydia -Dante |
Also,
it's not every. Dracula was expected to look great. Tina shocked
everyone, what are you on. Phoenix... Eh, a little better than I thought
but not by much. He's basically Nintendo, too, which is the thing. --- Something something something ^Poorly disguised anti-caps sig |
Why bother judging Nintendo before the rest of the Mario cast, Zelda cast, Samus and Kirby perform? --- Fast Falcon ate my bracket for dinner in the guru contest. |
Lightning Strikes posted... Okay. Waluigi. Tharja and Olimar, as said. Yoshi was the big one, great performance. Even Jigglypuff, given her dreadful vote-in performance a few years back. I really don't get why those two either. Getting 70% in a 3-way with a character from your own game in the poll is kind of nuts. I have no idea what to expect from Yoshi anymore. There are times when he is pretty darn impressive and times when he seems much worse. |
Anyone
losing confidence in Reyn winning should rethink their
reconsiderations. You don't have to be strong to win that match at all
theoretically speaking. --- "i am pretty sure 3-year old children would generate more thoughtful discussion than board 8 on any topic of sexism" - Naye745 |
dethfdddddh posted... Nanis23 posted...I really don't know what to think about Vincent performance here Well, I think that 70% of the votes Dunban got would go for KOS MOS,if not more Seeing as how both of them from the same series.. |
After
looking at this match, pretty convinced that Cloud would beat Link even
without the presence of Mario. I mean, 59% on a slightly LFFed KOS-MOS
man, what a beast Vincent is. --- The cycle of life and death continues. We will live. And they will die. |
Poor Dunban, but characters are definitely not the strength of Xenoblade. --- Green is not a creative color |
I really doubt the Xeno overlap is as intense as some of you are acting like. --- Demyx is better than Axel. http://www.last.fm/user/crazydom |
KOS-MOS would beat Shulk. --- Pts: 14/14 Today's Picks: Mewtwo & The Boss IX: Link-VV-BB-SS-Cloud-Sora-Samus-Mario-Zard |
What would KOS-MOS get on Fei Fong Wong? --- Pts: 14/14 Today's Picks: Mewtwo & The Boss IX: Link-VV-BB-SS-Cloud-Sora-Samus-Mario-Zard |
KOS-MOS would probably go 63-37 on Fei --- Wii Fit Trainer MASTER RACE |
So on another topic entirely, I did some lol x-stats for tomorrow's match. Alucard is projected to get 60.3% on The Boss. Dracula got 62.8% on Lucina. Chrom>Lucina, and presumably Dracula>Alucard, so I am thinking Chrom will take it. I could be wrong but I don't get the confidence in The Boss for that match. --- Something something something ^Poorly disguised anti-caps sig |
Does Mewtwo break 75% tonight? --- Pts: 14/14 Today's Picks: Mewtwo & The Boss IX: Link-VV-BB-SS-Cloud-Sora-Samus-Mario-Zard |
Alucard = Dracula > The Boss > Chrom > Lucina --- Pts: 14/14 Today's Picks: Mewtwo & The Boss IX: Link-VV-BB-SS-Cloud-Sora-Samus-Mario-Zard |
as much as I'd like Chrom to win The Boss most likely has it --- Want any VNs pre-patched? PM me. List of VNs can be found by clicking on my username. |
Well my Dunban > KOS-MOS pick is really working out! If it's any consolation for the people who picked Reyn to win his match, it is a night vote. I would suspect Xenoblade characters to be much stronger at night. --- http://i.imgur.com/32RNLnc.gif |
Even
if we assume Alucard=Dracula, as well, Chrom would only need to get 51%
on Lucina to be projected equal to or better than The Boss. --- Something something something ^Poorly disguised anti-caps sig |
Alucard > Dracula, if you think Dracula comes anywhere close to Alucard then Chrom wins. --- BOP Results: http://www.freewebs.com/charmander6000/CB9%20BOP.xls Points: 11/12 Today's Picks: Marth and Vincent |
Which
brings me back to the deleted part of that post, why
Alucard>Dracula? I can't think of a reason he would be stronger. At
least not significantly so. --- Something something something ^Poorly disguised anti-caps sig |
Alucard
is a fan favourite, a main character and has made multiple appearances
in other games while Dracula is essentially an endgame boss that is
mentioned a few times throughout each game. People may know him, but do
they care about him. --- BOP Results: http://www.freewebs.com/charmander6000/CB9%20BOP.xls Points: 11/12 Today's Picks: Marth and Vincent |
Time for fun with lol X-Stats. If you assume 75% of Dunban's votes go to KOS-MOS, that puts her at 44.24% here, which if you assume constant Vincent puts her slightly above Big Boss. |
I'm
thinking Vincent might get beat soundly now by Sonic after this match..
In the Sonic/Vinent/Bowser match. What do you guys think? --- nt |
Why
would we assume that. Most of his votes would likely go to Vincent
since Vincent is much stronger anyway and since they have more overlap
(male RPG side characters). The "Xeno" overlap is not a very reasonable
thing to assume. --- Chen Kenichi's #1 Fan (also Yoblazer) http://i.imgur.com/NQTthNf.jpg |

Vincent
can do it.Sonic nowdays is Nintendo and along with Bowser,Vincent can
slip by.But still Sonic is the favorite.Also all 3 FF 7 characters broke
50% in their matches.Very nice. --- GameFaqs is NOT the place to go for relationship advice.Nobody here gets any action unless it is their right or left hand.Including me.~Dawn and Dusk~ |
