Is ZeldaFAQs seriously going to let a Zelda character lose to Lu Bu!?

Skyward Sword has a terrible playrate confirmed.

So... Is Gilgamesh the weakest FF character in the contest? Who would you guys take him over?


Sin is the weakest. Why was he even put in the villains contest?

Sin isn't in this contest, and if you mean ever Kuja was weaker in that same contest that Sin was in! Beaten by a Hand. One of the most embarrassing results ever along with Magus/Sandbag.

I'm sure 4chan will attempt to rally for Groose since I heard that they were planning to do that for Groose.


4chan rallies rarely do anything. We always have a promise of them, 99% of the time they're worthless

I bet a lot of the top brackets wished they could change their pick just before the match. The -1s (48 points) are finished off. The -2s (47 points) take massive damage. Relatively speaking, the -3s (46 points) do much better. The casuals beat us this time around. Mid-30s to low-40s isn't that good but clearly better than how the top tiers did. Depending on how much support Kaim got, Booker may have been the favourite for the casuals as well but not nearly as much as he was for us.

18 people fell off the Top 49. scolletti105, Spikedross, startme_up, TeamRocketElite, t_kizzle, VincentLauw, Abuses_J00, Acro_, ahirsch101, ALAKA, Ambertwo, Amyson, arachnidkid, AtmaZeroX, Bane_Of_Despair, Baseman, BlackMetalex and BlAcK_TuRtLe did not have Gilgamesh winning. I'll need to work my way back on again.

21 people got it wrong and survived. Former first place Fr0zoN, former second place NLMagic, former third place -LusterSoldier-, former fourth place AAAMitsugi, former fifth place Blairville, Colegreen_c12, DarkFalconX, davidponte, Gandalfsam, GoldSlime35, hellfire104, iGenesis, isNotPerfect, JaySolano, Karma_Hunter, Kumatora, Lizcious, Luis_Sera89, MrDew, Nintendoboy375 and ramprevs also did not have Gilgamesh winning.

Congrats to the 10 people who knew Gilgamesh would win. Current first place CarveyFAQs, current second place Crossfiyah, current third place Flock_Masta_P, Hagankefs, Xcarvenger, alblito, AlecTrevylan006, Als52, AsurasKordoth and BakusaiTenketsu correctly predicted Gilgamesh's easy victory.

More like Skyward Sword *is* terrible.

Why that game had a stamina meter and no Gamecube controller support is just beyond me.

If Groose blows this to freakin' Lu Bu then it probably has to be both...not only would SS have to have a fairly bad playrate, but the ones who played it can't like it that much. Along with those same people also not liking Groose the character.

Seriously. Lu Bu is going to be complete garbage tier. If SS had real fans no way would any Zelda character lose to him.
