Crono fans stuffed Lloyd to make Pikachu look bad *grabs tinfoil hat* |
The last 6 updates have gone: cut gain big cut stall stall cut --- POKEFEAR |
creativename posted... Karma Hunter posted...I mean depending on the level of Tales boost you're talking, Zero needs to be seriously concerned about Kratos Aurion! He's lost to Hayabusa in this format. Kratos Aurion is significantly underrated because he goes through Ryu/Leon. --- www.dudewheresmyfreedom.com Proud to share the same beliefs as SmartMuffin |
Fox seems to have stopped the bleeding a little bit, my bracket might have some life in it yet. --- Kid: She wrote a bad word! Jade: I write what I feel. |
Wolf with those 12 vote updates. |
Fox is dead people Pokemon don't let characters do comebacks on them <_< --- www.dudewheresmyfreedom.com Proud to share the same beliefs as SmartMuffin |

He's lost to Hayabusa in this format. even with Leon's adjusted stats, which are pretty generous for Leon, Kratos is under 20 --- http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lxkdr0uNc91qlu5jao1_r1_400.gif |
How
does Ryu/Leon make Kratos Aurion underrated...? Even if Ryu for some
reason overperformed on Leon, it wouldn't be by very much. Not enough to
noticeably budge Kratos Aurion's numbers. --- www.gamefaqscontests.com www.gamefaqscontests.com/gallery |
Blue finally noticing something. |
Karma Hunter posted... Also, those of you making Blue v Fox 1v1 comparisons may want to absorb this little tidbit! The other day I tried to figure out Charizard's pre-bandwagon strength using Charizard > L-Block > Isaac from 2010 and Snake > Isaac from this contest; Charizard ended up about as strong as Fox, too. Then again, 2010 stats are so old at this point that they shouldn't be too reliable for this sort of thing. --- Congrats to 2011 Guru champ SuperNiceDog! |
tennisboy213 posted... The last 6 updates have gone: And a huge gain that is only 1 vote away from peak |
Everytime Fox boosts to get through, Blue just sends out Blastoise. And are people really not counting on Blastoise pics in the future? --- Hey, its that SuperNiceDog! Congrats to the Guru 2011 winner |
Oh that's right, Leon got a crappy sprite vs. Ryu http://www.gamefaqscontests.com/gallery/albums/cb8/cb8-108.jpg Still, moving Leon up a couple points is barely going to affect Kratos. --- www.gamefaqscontests.com www.gamefaqscontests.com/gallery |
Nah wolf just DOUBLED his previous vote intake to 24. |

He's lost to Hayabusa in this format. That... doesn't seem right. Kratos A. is worth like 18 just going by his raw value, I thought. Regardless, we're getting away from the main thrust of the matter, which is if Kratos A. goes out and bombs to all hell there's not going to be much explanation in the ways of a Tales boost! --- www.dudewheresmyfreedom.com Proud to share the same beliefs as SmartMuffin |
So
apparently Pokemon doesn't even need the Power Hour to have a
ridiculous early vote, even against other Nintendo characters. Good to
know for Squirtle/Dante. --- Black Turtle did a pretty good job. |

Didn't expect Blue to do this well, nor did I expect Fox to shut down Wolf this hard. The next round of this division is definitely going to be interesting. --- Current Let's Play: Final Fantasy II - http://forums.somethingawful.com/showthread.php?threadid=3557012 Previous: http://lparchive.org/author/mega64 |
I
am personally not relishing the prospect of Snake probably having the
closest wire-to-wire match or some similar dumb s*** in this year's
setup of Sprite Snake v Laughing Kefka augh --- www.dudewheresmyfreedom.com Proud to share the same beliefs as SmartMuffin |

Karma Hunter posted...

(clearly Kefka will choke in round 2 and surprise us, Kefka-style) |
Totally didn't post this in the wrong topic BLUE GAIN --- XIII_rocks, the cream of XIII fanboyism. |
Looking at Fox previous matches...he..doesn't look so strong..? I'm actually worried about Blue here |
Fayt_Esteed posted... Karma Hunter posted...I am personally not relishing the prospect of Snake probably having the closest wire-to-wire match or some similar dumb s*** in this year's setup of Sprite Snake v Laughing Kefka augh In a 1v1 I'd say Kefka wins 60-40 or so. |
I
like how we're all talking about Solid **** vs. Laughing Kefka as if
Kefka is guaranteed to get to Round 3. I can see where that assumption
comes from since Kefka beat someone who has beaten Altair in the past,
but for all we know FFVII has dropped quite a bit. And wow, first match this contest where Pokemon has impressed, although I guess the previous matches involved non-RBY entrants (N, Lugia) or characters that aren't well-liked in America anyway (Jigglypuff). Uh Ridley vs. Pac-Man who've you got? I go with Pac-Man because...it's Ridley. --- Currently Playing - Super Metroid, MGS4, Brawl, FFVII, Wind Waker, RE4, SOTC |
Blue
will win and look 'bad' here. Well, 'bad' in that he's probably 'equal
to Fox, a strong middle-of-the-road midcarder, more credit than I would
have given him pre-contest'. He's basically a lock for R3 now, as if he
runs into Pikachu they're going to kill each other and let Sora
through... and if he runs into Crono instead, no way Blue is gonna take
advantage of Crono/Sora overlap when Pikachu couldn't take advantage of the Crono/Magus split. --- www.dudewheresmyfreedom.com Proud to share the same beliefs as SmartMuffin |
Nanis23 posted... Looking at Fox previous matches...he..doesn't look so strong..? Fox is pretty much the posterboy of unlucky bracket placement. Most of every other match he's been in has had him meet up with other Nintendo characters... --- "Here I go! Divine judgment for an evil soul! Sacred Penance! Rest in peace." - Estellise Sidos Heurassein, Tales of Vesperia |
Oh wow Fox is trying to mount a comeback. But it's just SO SLOW. Imagine if Wolf wasn't here. --- Currently Playing - Super Metroid, MGS4, Brawl, FFVII, Wind Waker, RE4, SOTC |
Karma Hunter posted... I am personally not relishing the prospect of Snake probably having the closest wire-to-wire match or some similar dumb s*** in this year's setup of Sprite Snake v Laughing Kefka augh If Kefka doesn't lose next round, he will have to find another path that makes no sense. Bad news for Snake! |
Part of me is feeling as if this site never really cared for Fox, and that he'd be fodder without Smash Bros. --- Currently Playing - Super Metroid, MGS4, Brawl, FFVII, Wind Waker, RE4, SOTC |
And
yeah if Wolf wasn't here this would be an amazing match probably, and
potentially quite a big bracket-buster as I can't imagine the board
supporting Blue much if Wolf's not here pre-contest. Dammit Bacon --- www.dudewheresmyfreedom.com Proud to share the same beliefs as SmartMuffin |

LinkMarioSamus posted... Oh wow Fox is trying to mount a comeback. Uhhh Fox isn't doing s***, and won't be doing anything soon. Anytime Wolf gets any semblence of an increase, Blue will go up as well. --- http://i.imgur.com/32RNLnc.gif |
LinkMarioSamus posted... Oh wow Fox is trying to mount a comeback. Not how percentages work. --- Hey, its that SuperNiceDog! Congrats to the Guru 2011 winner |
Even if Fox did mount a slow comeback, he's screwed. This match would be close, regardless, at the end and Blue isn't losing a close match. --- Demyx is better than Axel. http://www.last.fm/user/crazydom |
Even
more stupid is that Fox is completely killing Wolf anyway.
Pre-contest, the debate was whether or not Wolf could avoid getting
killed enough to cost Fox the win. I guess that's what Wolf is doing,
but he somehow STILL manages to be on the ass end of the worst SFF
beating we've seen that wasn't from Link. --- Currently Playing - Super Metroid, MGS4, Brawl, FFVII, Wind Waker, RE4, SOTC |
Also whoa at the Fox disrespect, he's worth a cool 45% on Yoshi directly! Blue being equal to Fox is a good achievement. --- www.dudewheresmyfreedom.com Proud to share the same beliefs as SmartMuffin |
Part
of me gets the feeling that the Mario crew is all stronger now than in
2008, while most of the rest of Nintendo is taking a hit due to largely
getting ignored (or in Metroid's case...). Basically, I wouldn't put a whole lot of stock in that 2008 result now. Speaking of Nintendo, I just realized that even though Ryu Hayabusa and Big Daddy underperformed expectations right after coming off of poorly-received games, Ridley somehow managed to avoid that (although I guess Ridley did underperform based on stat expectations...but that could easily be explained by him being against Cloud and having a complete pic advantage. Breaking 45% on the lead of a PS1 FF should not be disappointing!). Good sign for Samus? --- Currently Playing - Super Metroid, MGS4, Brawl, FFVII, Wind Waker, RE4, SOTC |
I
wouldn't say Ridley impressed me at all, even relative to my
pre-contest expectations of Zidane winning. That was a day match, too -
Zidane brutalizes him even more over the course of 24 hours. --- www.dudewheresmyfreedom.com Proud to share the same beliefs as SmartMuffin |

Err, it was Zidane he was against - I'd never *ever* expect Ridley to get that close to Cloud. --- "Here I go! Divine judgment for an evil soul! Sacred Penance!

I know that for me,HotS really killed Kerrigan I prefered to vote for Missile for "lol sake" which is something I would never do with a character I like (same reason I won't vote Karp over Megaman) If Other M really killed Samus for people,then yes she is in trouble But unlike Kerrigan,Samus got alot more history...so I dunno |
Also
this argument is almost completely pointless for Samus - even assuming
some kind of Other M backlash, I don't have faith enough in its playrate
as a Wii Metroid game for that to be worth much. Even if she got
severely hurt, who the hell is she going to lose to before getting
smashed by Mario? Even against Auron/Tifa, she's got insurance because
they're gonna be in the same match! DAMMIT Bacon --- www.dudewheresmyfreedom.com Proud to share the same beliefs as SmartMuffin |
Blue is pretty strong. Looks like he might be stronger than Red after all. --- http://i498.photobucket.com/albums/rr345/Rakaputra/B8%20Girls%202012/pjbas.png SuperNiceDog - 1, pjbasis - 0 |
