Oh
I forgot to ask last night: does anyone know where redsox has been? I'm
not sure if he's even posted once since the contest began. --- http://i.imgur.com/a4GuDV3.gif |
Spring Breeze sure is weak! (no surprise, of course) You think he might end up second lowest in the x-stats? MegatokyoEd posted... I expected Pit to be around Ike level now and blocked out the memory of Cecil almost beating Knuckles. Same here, except I switched to Cecil at the last second... as Cecil had room to dropped since 2010 and still beat Pit. I still have Red beating Cecil and Wario in round 2, though. I hope Cecil pulls through, costing me 3 points, because FF4 really needs more respect in these contests. --- "Ah, a party! We haven't had one of those! It could be fun! So... what is a party?" "Well, you drink punch and eat CAKE! ...I think." |
I
really wanted to take Red to win two rounds, but Wario being there and
Brawl pics and the whole 'Cecil is probably stronger than him anyway'
things reared their ugly heads. --- Black Turtle did a pretty good job. |
Haste_2 posted... Spring Breeze sure is weak! (no surprise, of course) You think he might end up second lowest in the x-stats? He might, but there's still REYN TIME! |
Oh that's right, I have Red winning next round but if Cecil can beat up on useless Pit he's going to Round 3 hahahahaha oh my bracket --- sig |
Wario absolutely sucks. I took Creeper over him just based on that and had him going to round 3 off Red/Pit LFF. But that's not happening now. --- Demyx is better than Axel. http://www.last.fm/user/crazydom |

I
wouldn't be surprised if Creeper does weird things, but I don't think
GameFAQs particularly cares about Minecraft. Not enough turn-based
combat and buster swords. --- Black Turtle did a pretty good job. |
LinkMarioSamus posted... It just occurred to me that Zidane got only 64% or so on Claptrap last contest. In hindsight... You keep using that word, and we keep telling you that being mainstream is irrelevant at best and very well might be a liability. I mean, Halo and Call of Duty are extremely mainstream, right? --- RIP GrapefruitKing and Emporer_Kazbar. You will be missed. |
Yeah this is looking like a route for Zidane. Good for him, GameFAQs shows some good taste today. Anyway let's go...Yu! Yeah, Yu. --- "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." |
Yu beating Shadow would make my contest. --- Black Turtle did a pretty good job. |
For
what it's worth, assuming constant Zidane since 2010, Tanner is
expected to get 7.33%, while SBD is at 10.53%. I know Reyn finished well
below Tanner assuming constant Spyro (lol), so we'll see. |
Perhaps Minecraft's Creeper can beat Wario and give us... a surprisingly cool match in R2. --- Chen Kenichi's #1 Fan (also Yoblazer) http://i.imgur.com/xiKRQ2F.gif |
I like how you guys totally ignore Uprising Before he was just a "guy that appears in SSBB" Now he has a game (and a good one) behind him (and yeah that 1989 trash doesn't count) |
I can't believe Yu and Kat are in the same match. Poor Kat. She's VITE EXCLUSIVE, and launched with the Vita, and was the only good game. That plus being free on PS+ since the start means that almost every Vita owner has played Gravity Rush. ...But then she's stuck with Yu, the star of P4G, the game every Vita owner loves. Any strength Kat would have had is gone. She doesn't even get TJF cuz she's not really that sexy. Maybe the cute factor but Yu is cute too. Oh well. RIP Kat. I don't expect her to be Caim weak, and it impresses me that a Vita-only character can make it in without a rally, but damn. --- ~Zen |
Uprising was what kind of hit on GameFAQs? Zilch. --- "i am pretty sure 3-year old children would generate more thoughtful discussion than board 8 on any topic of sexism" - Naye745 |
I
laughed when I saw that too - there is only one (or two, if you count
Chie) character in the bracket who could SFF her and she drew him. --- We are living our lives Abound with so much information |
KamikazePotato posted... I wouldn't be surprised if Creeper does weird things, but I don't think GameFAQs particularly cares about Minecraft. Not enough turn-based combat and buster swords. I don't think he'll do much either. I just decided to roll the dice on his intangibles over a bum like Wario. --- Demyx is better than Axel. http://www.last.fm/user/crazydom |
MarioSuperstar posted... Uprising was what kind of hit on GameFAQs? Zilch. The 3DS board seems pretty popular..for what's it worth Though it doesn't matter too much,because otherwise Harvest Moon characters could be near-elite or something |
Oof, disappointing showing from Ridley here. Was really hoping he'd put the worst Final Fantasy character in the series to bed. --- Game of the decade? More like Guru of the decade mirite? However, the Guru of the next decade so far is SuperNiceDog |
TsunamiXXVIII posted... LinkMarioSamus posted...It just occurred to me that Zidane got only 64% or so on Claptrap last contest. In hindsight... Halo and CoD are really bad counter-examples to cite, seeing how they both get so much hate on this site. Well, at least CoD does, part of me feels as if Halo hate is gone due to how well the games performed in GOTD. --- Currently Playing - Super Metroid, MGS4, Brawl, FFVII, Wind Waker, RE4, SOTC |
match result suddenly 100x more satisfying than was expecting well done GameFAQs A++ result --- sig |

LinkMarioSamus posted... It just occurred to me that Zidane got only 64% or so on Claptrap last contest. In hindsight... How do you post here for so long and have no idea how contests work. --- Menji has reclaimed what was his by rights. I was more of a man with his than with my own combined. ##Alec |
Great
to see a strong Zidane performance, I feel like FFIX is the kind of
game that'll grow in stature here as the years tick on. Gamefaqs initial
position on it was always a bit weird and probably had an element of
childishness to it because of IX's colourful, fantasy vibe which should
and seems to be going away. --- Smurf, the cream of Sonic Fanboyism. |
...no idea where that's coming from. In hindsight, it's difficult to see Ridley breaking 60% on Claptrap like Zidane did. And of course, the issue of FF hero vs. Metroid villain rears its ugly head. So how about a change of topic: do you guys feel that Ridley is another "could have won a good number of matches in this bracket" character? Or hold on a sec... Ridley vs. Elizabeth, who've you got? Heck, Ridley vs. Spyro who've you got? --- Currently Playing - Super Metroid, MGS4, Brawl, FFVII, Wind Waker, RE4, SOTC |
ChenKenichiFan posted... Oh I forgot to ask last night: does anyone know where redsox has been? I'm not sure if he's even posted once since the contest began. I'm pretty sure he was here for at the very least the Kefka match, but maybe I'm thinking of someone else. --- xp1337: Don't you wish there was a spell-checker that told you when you a word out? GotD (219/384) Melee v FFX |
Zarbon is an awesome henchman. I'm bored and that's why posted this random thing. --- Pokemon Showdown Peak Ranking OU: 2004 And then lost 7 matches in a row >_> |
Characters making it to R2 who I'd pick Ridley to beat: Tharja Draven (at least I'd take Ridley to do better against Jak) The Boss? Ness? Elizabeth Okay admittedly that's not much, and two of them are even pushing it. Still. Oh wait, new question: who do you think is the weakest character to make it to Round 2 so far? I'd say it's Tharja. --- Currently Playing - Super Metroid, MGS4, Brawl, FFVII, Wind Waker, RE4, SOTC |
Was
red sox the guy who used to compare every match to Crono/Vincent trends
or am I thinking of somebody else? I miss whoever that guy was. --- Smurf, the cream of Sonic Fanboyism. |
LinkMarioSamus posted... Characters making it to R2 who I'd pick Ridley to beat: If he doesn't get a rally it's Draven, he was literally finishing last on base strength in a very weak match. --- Smurf, the cream of Sonic Fanboyism. |
ChenKenichiFan posted... Oh I forgot to ask last night: does anyone know where redsox has been? I'm not sure if he's even posted once since the contest began. He's popped in occasionally. He compared Kefka/Zack to Crono/Vincent <_< --- sig |
Xuxon posted... you forgot Spyro I know where you're coming from, but no. --- Currently Playing - Super Metroid, MGS4, Brawl, FFVII, Wind Waker, RE4, SOTC |
Ness and The Boss would beat Spyro easily so if you have those as maybes then Spyro needs to be on there. i'd also put Crash and Bayonetta on there. maybe Lugia. --- http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lxkdr0uNc91qlu5jao1_r1_400.gif |
Dancin has had 5.96% for the last three updates now. --- [NO BARKLEY NO PEACE] |
Tharja is the weakest to make it to second round This is easy to see as Jack is supposed to be stronger than Tina,and he lost to Joe Joe has better xstats than Spyro in 2007,but now it's kind of debateable Tharja or Spyro anyway |
Spyro kicked too much ass in his match for me to think he is the weakest. I'll spare someone when they break 55%. --- "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." |
Spyro is helluva weak. God bless its heart, but it's helluva weak. --- Drop it to the floor... |
Tharja is by far the weakest in round 2 with only unrallied Draven possibly being weaker. --- BOP Results: http://www.freewebs.com/charmander6000/CB9%20BOP.xls Points: 34/40 Today's Picks: Squirtle and Zidane |
Nanis23 posted... MarioSuperstar posted...Uprising was what kind of hit on GameFAQs? Zilch. Totally need to nominate Pete the farmer in the next character contest. --- Current Let's Play: Final Fantasy II - http://forums.somethingawful.com/showthread.php?threadid=3557012 Previous: http://lparchive.org/author/mega64 |
Xuxon posted... Ness and The Boss would beat Spyro easily so if you have those as maybes then Spyro needs to be on there. I'm not taking Ridley to beat gaming icons, thanks! Although I guess Ridley could munch Bomberman or Pac-Man to bits. Uh...actually forget about that last one, Ridley vs. Pac-Man sounds like Ocelot vs. Pac-Man (and I'd take Ocelot over Pac-Man NOW, but still). --- Currently Playing - Super Metroid, MGS4, Brawl, FFVII, Wind Waker, RE4, SOTC |
Anyway, what's the next debatable match? Sora/Scorpion? Lee Everett/G&W? --- Drop it to the floor... |
Yeah Game & Watch. Suddenly now I'm finding it difficult to see Game & Watch being treated as a Smash symbol the way I...actually forget it...or not. It's difficult to see someone who even remotely likes The Walking Dead or Super Meat Boy voting for Mr. Game & Watch. The former is a freaking high-selling Game of the Year pick. And yes I know that 2012 characters have looked like garbage all contest. Don't care, I'm just using common sense. --- Currently Playing - Super Metroid, MGS4, Brawl, FFVII, Wind Waker, RE4, SOTC |
Wasn't pre-rallied Draven getting annihilated by Chie? He's definitely the weakest in round 2. --- Demyx is better than Axel. http://www.last.fm/user/crazydom |
AlecTrevelyan006 posted... How do you post here for so long and have no idea how contests work. This is the ultimate response to every LMS post. |
kinsho3 posted... Anyway, what's the next debatable match? Sora/Scorpion? Lee Everett/G&W? Was Magus/Otacon settled at some point? --- xp1337: Don't you wish there was a spell-checker that told you when you a word out? GotD (219/384) Melee v FFX |
I
can't even begin to stress the amount of overwhelming confidence I have
in G&W. I hedge on every single match like a mofo and I still can't
possibly imagine him losing. --- sig |
We should treat the rallies as a part of Draven's strength. Also dear god no, Bayonetta would shoot Ridley out of the sky, though I'd guess he'd have as hard a time as Samus does fighting Ridley in her games. Imagine if Ridley and Wander switched spots. We'd see Ridley gulp down N and Wander slay Spring Breeze. --- Currently Playing - Super Metroid, MGS4, Brawl, FFVII, Wind Waker, RE4, SOTC |
Being rallied is a kind of character strength There is no such a thing as "unrallied Draven" |
