400 Lead barrier breached. --- The Gamer In Me "Ike and Ash & Co. saw a Yoshi and didn't catch it." - Mer telling us his dream. |
Because Ryu sucked in 2010. A bit unfair to use his round 3 match, might as well use Solid Snake's match at face value. --- BOP Results: http://www.freewebs.com/charmander6000/CB9%20BOP.xls Points: 29/34 Today's Picks: Lara Croft and Ryu H. |
I think Ryu is more likely to catch Zack than Zack is to catch Kefka at this rate --- A refusal of praise is a desire to be praised twice. |
Uh
Im not sure how relevant it is to the argument at hand, but the
argument for most of the Charizard pickers wasn't necessarily
Zard>Bowser, it was Zard>Sora>Bowser --- Dr voltchball - best in the world. |
Ryu's always been more likely to catch Zack. Honestly feel Ryu's more likely to catch Kefka than Zack is to catch Kefka. Ryu's day vote should be killer in this group. --- No problem! This is a cute and pop genocide of love! |

GloryChaos posted... Nanis23 posted...ChenKenichiFan posted...I have a hard time seeing the "common sense" in Charizard > Bowser. Common sense goes like this: Well the reason he is garbage is because of Stealth Rock And people hate SR,not Charizard! |
19 gurus took Charizard to win that division, only 6 of them predicted it would happen against Bowser --- Dr voltchball - best in the world. |
Well the reason he is garbage is because of Stealth Rock And people hate SR,not Charizard! You should take a look at smogon, there are people upset that Charizard gets something like 3% usage in the high tiers. I mean if people want to use worse Pokemon let them. --- BOP Results: http://www.freewebs.com/charmander6000/CB9%20BOP.xls Points: 29/34 Today's Picks: Lara Croft and Ryu H. |
Now already up at 450. Kefka could run away with the poll at this rate. --- The Gamer In Me "Ike and Ash & Co. saw a Yoshi and didn't catch it." - Mer telling us his dream. |
Kefka gained over 100 votes in the last 3 splits. --- I pwn you all! |
TheOneAboveAll posted... Sprite Kefka upsetting Sprite Snake could mean a Crono/Cloud/Kefka semi, which (in mine and red sox's dreamworld) leads to an SFF upset and a Crono/Mario/Link final, which leads to... This post got me on the Kefka bandwagon. --- Fortune favors the bold. -Virgil |
Come on Zack, switch with SOMEONE. --- I don't know how much you know about women, but Dr. Pizza is an expert. - The Mana Sword |
Kefka at +514.. I think he's averaged a 30 vote gain in the last 4 splits. --- I pwn you all! |

I don't think Snake's name penetration is weak enough that the sprite round would knock him out against Kefka. People have to click the bubble before voting, not the picture! It's a completely different scenario than Big Boss. --- http://25.media.tumblr.com/577e7c376f5f1ba2c1e99c2bd374a202/tumblr_mpnimmUE2m1solfhro1_500.gif http://img.imgcake.com/tumblrmmb4idD68O1r37arko1400gifve.gif |
Does anyone have the Contest Bingo thing? Wasn't there something about Kefka in there? If not, there should be. http://i52.photobucket.com/albums/g3/CzarMagus/contestbingo_zps3cd1ee46.png Not sure how to check square 16. I get the reference, but I have no idea what contest-wise has to happen. --- [NO BARKLEY NO PEACE] |
So is Kefka a shoe-in for Round 3? Is he likely the second strongest in the division? |
Snake/Ike/Kefka, believe! (lol) |
AxemRedRanger posted... Does anyone have the Contest Bingo thing? Wasn't there something about Kefka in there? If not, there should be. it was a reference to Phoenix Wright losing debated matches in the past (Gordon, Jecht, Alucard/Dracula etc.) Of course he beat Marth so the Miracle DID happen in this case Also I believe there were a few matches B8 over the casuals and vice-versa --- Want any VNs pre-patched? PM me. List of VNs can be found by clicking on my username. |
It
also should be taken into consideration whether only official sprites
will be allowed. Knowing Allen, he may take unofficial sprites into
consideration. --- http://25.media.tumblr.com/577e7c376f5f1ba2c1e99c2bd374a202/tumblr_mpnimmUE2m1solfhro1_500.gif http://img.imgcake.com/tumblrmmb4idD68O1r37arko1400gifve.gif |
I'm pretty sure Protoman/Ike let you fill in #16 --- No problem! This is a cute and pop genocide of love! |
Also I believe there were a few matches B8 over the casuals and vice-versa I figured there has to be a massive gap to check those squares. What are the biggest guru vs. sitewide bracket differences so far, in both directions? --- [NO BARKLEY NO PEACE] |
Steins_Gate posted... It also should be taken into consideration whether only official sprites will be allowed. Knowing Allen, he may take unofficial sprites into consideration. in the past this sadly hasn't been the case Mario vs. Ike in 2010 had Ike with a fan sprite that had to be changed --- Want any VNs pre-patched?

#23: Casual bracketers beat us pretty good in the Spyro match, right? --- Chen Kenichi's #1 Fan (also Yoblazer) http://i.imgur.com/xiKRQ2F.gif |
Fun Fact: Despite contributing to an underperformance, Solid **** hasn't actually cost Snake a contest match, yet. --- The Gamer In Me "Ike and Ash & Co. saw a Yoshi and didn't catch it." - Mer telling us his dream. |
Is
Solid **** supposed to be that lousy NES sprite that was supposed to
have made Frog and Bowser perform so well against him? That sprite may
suck, but I honestly don't think it's bad enough to cost him a match. --- Brawl FC - 1332 8069 6690 http://i.imgur.com/OZ9aS.png |
Yes, it's that sprite. Thought we have seen the Gameboy Colour sprite, too. --- The Gamer In Me "Ike and Ash & Co. saw a Yoshi and didn't catch it." - Mer telling us his dream. |
I still don't know why Locke did so poorly if Kefka's killing it like this. Did that pic really hurt him that much? --- No problem! This is a cute and pop genocide of love! |
Eh.
I have the weakest estimations of Snake in the Stats Topic, and I don't
think he'd come close to losing to Kefka in the Sprite Round. Kefka
might be able to make it fun for an hour or two in a Night Match, but
with 24 hours, Snake should be getting at least 55% --- "What's the matter with bootblacking? We both like it very much!" This is Yesmar. |
Lopen posted... I still don't know why Locke did so poorly if Kefka's killing it like this. Did that pic really hurt him that much? No Dissidia. Plus Locke while liked isn't a super fan favorite like Kefka --- Want any VNs pre-patched? PM me. List of VNs can be found by clicking on my username. |
The
only reason Locke is even in this at all is because he's the first dude
you play as in the game. I'd say the likes of Edgar could possibly
overtake him. --- http://25.media.tumblr.com/577e7c376f5f1ba2c1e99c2bd374a202/tumblr_mpnimmUE2m1solfhro1_500.gif http://img.imgcake.com/tumblrmmb4idD68O1r37arko1400gifve.gif |
600 reached. Now it is totally a gg Zack situation now. --- @w@ Gamertag: SliceSabre |
Kefka
and Terra (especially Kefka) seem to have become the icons of Old
Square on this site, and perhaps that status carries with it more
Nintendo support than we know. --- http://i.imgur.com/a4GuDV3.gif |
I still think Edgar >= Sabin > Terra > Locke but after seeing Locke stink up the joint I don't care enough to try it. --- No problem! This is a cute and pop genocide of love! |
Oh did we have a competitive battling discussion here? Cool. Chaizard sucks in competitive battling, even without Stealth Rock best it can get to is UU. Volcarona>>>>>>>>>>>Charizard In simple terms, Moth>>>>>>>>>>>Dragon. There was a tournament going on on the Pokemon X board. 32 users participated in it, I was in the top 6. Only 2-3 battles are remaining in that tournament. --- Pokemon Showdown Peak Ranking OU: 2004 And then lost 7 matches in a row >_> |
I might take Cyan over Locke even, but at that point it honestly does come down to the picture, I'm sure of it. --- http://25.media.tumblr.com/577e7c376f5f1ba2c1e99c2bd374a202/tumblr_mpnimmUE2m1solfhro1_500.gif http://img.imgcake.com/tumblrmmb4idD68O1r37arko1400gifve.gif |
SliceSabre posted... 600 reached. I feel like I'm picking on you :( Only 545 right now. 600 seems inevitable though! --- I pwn you all! |
Should have stuck with my gut, I originally had Kefka. Switched to Ryu because I figured they would kill each other. Dammit. --- http://i.imgur.com/32RNLnc.gif |
Take
it from me - Snake only hasn't lost a contest match with Sprite Snake
because he's almost invariably gone up against subpar competition.
Sprite Snake could conceivably lose to every single member of the Noble
Nine and almost every near-elite out there. It's only because he keeps
getting put up against chumps like Frog and Pikachu that he gets
embarrassed, but hasn't actually cost him yet. If Kefka can get to R3 and his true sprite that he's never gotten makes him as strong as he should be (I'm not talking about Angel form, I'm talking about in-game Kefka), Snake's not immune from a loss. --- sig |
As
someone who was excited for Locke...we dont need to see him or Edgar or
anyone from now on. Terra and Kefka is all we need from FF6 and
Dissidia is the obvious explanation. --- Leafs / Raptors / Blue Jays / TFC / Argos / Tottenham We'll get 'em next year. |
spooky96 posted... Oh did we have a competitive battling discussion here? Cool. Without stealth rock, I'd actually use Charizard in OU. He makes for a great scarfer / specs user (not so much) on sun teams. OHKOing / 2hko'ing pretty much any switch in is nothing to joke about. And interestingly enough, there are a few opportunities where he could be switched in. Volcorona would still be infinitely better though. --- Brawl FC - 1332 8069 6690 http://i.imgur.com/OZ9aS.png |
By the way, the votals are pretty good this match. It doesn't seem like there's any SFF here at all. |
AxemRedRanger posted... Does anyone have the Contest Bingo thing? Wasn't there something about Kefka in there? If not, there should be. Link wins free space made me lol |
So
if Kefka does somehow make it to Snake and beat him we could possibly
be looking at Kefka/Cloud/Sora for the final 3 of that group right? --- http://myanimelist.net/animelist/swordz9 |
I
don't think Sprite Kefka would do that much for him. The reason Kefka
slaughtered Wesker that one time is because that is the Kefka that should have always been. a.k.a., Kefka with a decent picture. Now that Kefka has decent pictures to work with, he should perform a lot more consistently. --- Black Turtle did a pretty good job. |
So
if any of us are taking our Sprite Kefka>Snake conversations
seriously (I'm not, by the way), this match knocks off numbers 2, 11,
and 23 from the bingo board. |
TheOneAboveAll posted... By the way, the votals are pretty good this match. It doesn't seem like there's any SFF here at all. Eh, Zack and Kefka definitely have disproportionate overlap. Not to an insane degree, but it's there, and Ryu H would be stinkin' up the joint even more did they not I'd wager. SFF matches don't have to be low vote affairs, it happens but it's not an ironclad rule. --- sig |
