I would rather Jill win by 27 votes than via curbstomping! --- Crucifying my Oracle average one match at a time |

If
this site lets Red Bird defeat Mike Haggar, Mayor of Earth, then I'll
crawl into a dark corner and cry endless amounts of tears. Manly tears. |
Currently Fox would need 77.2% of Wolf's vote to defeat Blue by 1 vote. Is Fox v Blue a virtual draw 1v1? Or is that still too high of an estimate of what Fox would get from Wolf? --- I pwn you all! |
Match LV: (1) Samus Aran vs. (18) Isaac Clarke vs. (27) Sandbag Previous Contest Samus Aran 2010 78.69% against Prince of Persia 67.52% against Jill Valentine 67.31% against Sub-Zero 63.85% against Zelda 47.19% against Cloud Strife Isaac Clarke N/A N/A Sandbag 2008 24.99% against Sonic the Hedgehog, Magus and Commander Shepard 15.15% against Auron, Sonic the Hedgehog and Sub-Zero Analysis Finally a new division, hopefully it is better for both my bracket and expert challenge. Samus should have no issue of winning this match. She is one of the strongest characters in the bracket and will always put up a good performance against anyone not named Link or Mario. Sadly Samus is on a collision course with Mario and she does not have any debatable matches along the way. Sometimes that is how the bracket falls. I am not expecting much out of Isaac. Dead Space is not a popular series on GameFAQs with the first game handily losing to San Andreas. Still a sequel and a third game has been released since then, but I feel Isaac could have several releases and he will still be weak until one of those games became a huge hit on this site. I am a bit nervous of taking Sandbag for second place with Samus in this poll. Sandbag held up decently with Sonic in the poll when we last saw him, but Samus is more Nintendo and also appeared in Melee. Joke vote characters also tend to perform not as well in their return contest so that is something that we should watch out for. Isaac can take second place, but I feel it will be due to Samus getting SFF on Sandbag as oppose to Isaac having some strength. If Samus does pull off some SFF we could see her reach the high 60s or even break 70%. charmander6000s Bracket: Samus Aran > Sandbag and Isaac Clarke charmander6000s Prediction: Samus Aran 63.46%, Sandbag 22.73%, Isaac Clarke 13.81% --- BOP Results: http://www.freewebs.com/charmander6000/CB9%20BOP.xls Points: 43/52 Today's Picks: Pac-Man and Fox McCloud |
ZeldaTPLink posted... My bracket has Catherine and I still think I chose right. Worked out great for Juliet --- Game of the decade? More like Guru of the decade mirite? However, the Guru of the next decade so far is SuperNiceDog |
I think Red Bird will fall prey to "nobody actually cares for him and feels obligated to vote for him" like Pac-Man but worse --- ~Zen |
raginbull911 posted... Currently Fox would need 77.2% of Wolf's vote to defeat Blue by 1 vote. I'd pick Blue to win by a smidge. It would be a hell of a 1v1 match though. --- http://i.imgur.com/32RNLnc.gif |
Is Fox v Blue a virtual draw 1v1? Or is that still too high of an estimate of what Fox would get from Wolf? Even if Fox doesn't get that many votes from Wolf we are in the range where day to day variation could change the outcome. --- BOP Results: http://www.freewebs.com/charmander6000/CB9%20BOP.xls Points: 43/52 Today's Picks: Pac-Man and Fox McCloud |
ZenOfThunder posted... I think Red Bird will fall prey to "nobody actually cares for him and feels obligated to vote for him" I actually think he's going to be Pikachu circa 2003 GameFAQS. Everybody knows him and everybody antivotes him. --- Demyx is better than Axel. http://www.last.fm/user/crazydom |
If Red Bird does well, I'd attribute it to joke votes(ala Missile) before I would consider real popularity. --- A refusal of praise is a desire to be praised twice. |

ZeldaTPLink posted... Pizzaknight posted...If this site lets Red Bird defeat Mike Haggar, Mayor of Earth, then I'll crawl into a dark corner and cry endless amounts of tears. If you want a newer character to win over the Nostalgia Brigade, root for someone better! Like Nathan Drake, Booker DeWitt, Elizabeth, Handsome Jack, Vaas, etc. The list goes on. |
there is someone who believes that Red Bird beating Mike Haggar would be a good thing what website is this --- ~Zen |
Oh, I actually thought Mike Haggar was another generic FPS character. My bad. Never played FInal Fight. Still, it would be hilarious to see the tears if someone like Red Bird got an upset. |

Pizzaknight posted... ZeldaTPLink posted...Pizzaknight posted...If this site lets Red Bird defeat Mike Haggar, Mayor of Earth, then I'll crawl into a dark corner and cry endless amounts of tears. No, I thought Mike Haggar was a new character. In fact, I want to see the Nostalgia Brigade crush every single bone of those new characters. Except the ones I like :P |
So... this is also a result of Fox not having gotten anything relevant recently, huh? --- "Divine judgment for an evil soul! Sacred Penance! Rest in peace." - Estellise Sidos Heurassein, Tales of Vesperia |
Blue might just be as strong as Fox. We don't have any past data on how strong Blue is supposed to be. --- Pokemon VGC2013 BC Regional - 16th place Pokemon VGC2013 US National - 39th place |
there was a remake of his most famous game! that... probably didn't increase his fanbase by much! --- ~Zen |
1337gamerpr0 posted... www.angrybirds.com :P https://www.facebook.com/angrybirds Look at all those likes. Even someone posting on that page would probably get a lot of votes for Red Bird. If the owner of that page publicly endorsed a rally, that would be thousands of votes for Red Bird. --- Luster Soldier --- ~Shield Bearer~ | ~Data Analyst~ Popular at school, but not as cool as SuperNiceDog, Guru Champ! |
Fayt_Esteed posted... So... this is also a result of Fox not having gotten anything relevant recently, huh? I have a feeling that Rivarly Rumble is not as irrelevant as people think. Very hard to translate into actual stats, yes, but not irrelevant. Anyway, if you don't consider RR, there is a 5 year gap since last contest. That's almost an entire gaming generation. Stats have changed. |
Angry Birds really IS a thing my dad likes it my little sister loves it my mom actually knows what it is I see merch all over the mall and little kids always have angry birds (and minecraft!) shirts there's tv commercials and a tv show coming, with talks of a movie as well there were angry birds world championships held on a plane flying over China there's a knock-off angry birds theme park in China too i took a class on marketing and stuff and we looked up the hottest IPs in the world right now and Angry Birds was in the top 10 but none of that matters cuz this is gamefaqs --- ~Zen |
@ZTPLink:
Ah, that explains it. The Nostalgia Brigade certainly doesn't take any
prisoners, so I expect more and more newer characters to fall. Drake and
Elizabeth are living on borrowed time. =P @Fayt: Yeah, Star Fox (as a franchise) has been criminally underutilized by Nintendo, so Fox has nowhere to go but down. I don't think he's lost much strength (if any at all), though. Blue is simply more legit than a lot of us thought. Still, give us a new Star Fox already, Nintendo. Let Fox properly join the upper echelons of the Nostalgia Brigade. #NostalgiaBrigade |
-LusterSoldier- posted... 1337gamerpr0 posted...www.angrybirds.com :P Draven vs Red Bird, who would everyone here vote for |
Draven, without a second thought. |
ZenOfThunder posted... Angry Birds really IS a thing This thing is a pop icon. It might be more recognizable than Mario at this point. Still, GameFAQs is weird. But I don't understand how some people here think it's easy to predict Red Bird's strenght. It's an entirely different situation from Pac-Man. Nothing will surprise me. |
Easily Draven. Actually I would vote for neither, but I'd take Draven in my bracket I think Draven without rallying strength could beat Red Bird OK, maybe not THAT far, but Red Bird doesn't have nearly as much rallying potential, as GameFAQs doesn't care about Angry Birds and whatever 10-year-olds love Angry Birds don't care about GameFAQs --- ~Zen |
I don't care about LoL, so Red Bird. |
Does anybody keep track of who wins the Board Vote? I want to see where Red Bird ranks on that list --- ~Zen |
ZenOfThunder posted... Angry Birds really IS a thing I even saw an Angry Birds car driving on a highway on a long road trip back from Florida. --- Luster Soldier --- ~Shield Bearer~ | ~Data Analyst~ Popular at school, but not as cool as SuperNiceDog, Guru Champ! |
if GameFAQs followed mainstream trends, Mario would SFF Link and not the other way around but yeah, I'd vote Draven because Angry Birds sucks |
Team Rocket Elite posted... Blue might just be as strong as Fox. We don't have any past data on how strong Blue is supposed to be. Agreed. It's hard to tell when SFF is part of the equation... --- "Divine judgment for an evil soul! Sacred Penance! Rest in peace." - Estellise Sidos Heurassein, Tales of Vesperia |
1337gamerpr0 posted... if GameFAQs followed mainstream trends, Mario would SFF Link and not the other way around I actually have that on my bracket. Yeah I know it's harder than winning the lotery. But I like the idea of ending the bracket with a semi-impossible upset that nobody but me would get right. |
I forgot what match was next so I glanced at the next match pic and I wish I hadn't. Holy hell this is gonna be a boring one --- www.dudewheresmyfreedom.com Proud to share the same beliefs as SmartMuffin |
Samus could SFF Sandbag into giving Isaac a close ma... yeah okay maybe not --- A refusal of praise is a desire to be praised twice. |
Karma Hunter posted... I forgot what match was next so I glanced at the next match pic and I wish I hadn't. Holy hell this is gonna be a boring one division 6 is over, your average boring matches resume now inb4 Magikarp upset |
when will this f***in' round be OVER --- F*** BT |
It'll be fun to see if Isaac will be worth getting into a contest ever again so that he gets a fair shot SPOILERS: He won't be --- ~Zen |
Most
of the other 1 seeds are fun to watch at least because they all have
big implications for future rounds. Samus and Sephiroth are completely
wasted - why weren't they at least matched up against each other, again? --- www.dudewheresmyfreedom.com Proud to share the same beliefs as SmartMuffin |
Samus Aran 0% 0 Votes Isaac Clarke 0% 0 Votes Sandbag 100% 2 Votes |
Christ, Isaac you are the worst hing --- ~Zen |
LOL Isaac |
Another bad day for Isaac Clarke --- F*** BT |
Board does not care about Isaac --- BOP Results: http://www.freewebs.com/charmander6000/CB9%20BOP.xls Points: 43/54 Today's Picks: Samus and Vaas |
Samus Aran 51.72% 30 Votes Isaac Clarke 3.45% 2 Votes Sandbag 44.83% 26 Votes Your Pick Total Votes: 58 lol Isaac --- I don't know how much you know about women, but Dr. Pizza is an expert. - The Mana Sword |
Sephiroth can potentially lose to Kirby. The only implication Samus can possibly
have for a later round is hurting Mario enough to lose to Mega
Man/Charizard/Magikarp. I find the possibility of Sephiroth losing to
Kirby far more likely. --- Chen Kenichi's #1 Fan (also Yoblazer) http://i.imgur.com/NQTthNf.jpg |
