GameFAQs Contests

Wrex is in good shape. ME is way more day oriented than FFIV is.

I'd almost say I feel bad for FFIV fans because this is the second contest in a row Cecil gets potentially robbed of a win by getting put into a day match instead of a night match but LOL FFIV

Oh I'm not saying Tali's UNpopular. Just not as popular as her... 'enthusiastic' fanbase would have you believe. Line should go Garrus > Wrex > Liara > Tali.

This is probably going to cause a lot of people to fall off the top 50 if this happens...

Nah, you probably won't see a lot of leaderboard movement if Wrex wins. Very few of the high ups have him winning. Heck, his prediction percentage should be pretty low in general.

You weren't kidding, Tali's voice is wicked cool. Actually, from a glance, the cast in general seems to have good voice acting.

Does anyone think the winner of Cecil/Wrex can beat Red through LFF?

If Red gets a s****y Brawl pic, there's certainly a chance. Especially if it's Wrex - I feel like he'd be able to take advantage of the LFF more effectively.

I don't understand this. Red's Brawl model is identical to his R/B/Y appearance.

And Red isn't losing next round period.

What is wrong with people

The original Pokemon RBY artwork is really, really good. It's also distinct and very nostalgia-inducing - as are the sprites. On the flip side, the Brawl artwork for him is weirdly bland; it's kind of plastic-y, and doesn't appear as detailed as most Brawl models. Which makes sense - he's not actually playable in Brawl himself, his Pokemon are.

And let's face it, this:

Just flat-out has more cool factor than this:

I dunno. I have a hard time seeing Liara being the #3.

But let's get Liara, Tali, and Thane (the best) in next time anyway! More Mass Effect characters for everyone!

I agree on the Brawl part, and yes there's a good chance it could have caused a Red underperformance against Ocelot and X (although Red still broke 40%, he'd be a beast then! Which would make sense to be fair...). Brawl's rendition just looks like a generic Pokemon trainer, while the original art is like GETTING S*** DONE.

Currently Playing - Super Metroid, MGS4, Brawl, FFVII, Wind Waker, RE4, SOTC

If Wrex wins today and beats Red next round I will label FF4 the unluckiest game ever in GFAQs contests.

There's pretty much nothing to back up "Liara would be stronger than Tali" at all. Tali is playable in all 3 games just like Garrus and in pretty much any poll I've seen off Gamefaqs Tali is just about as popular as Garrus is.

Also, to return to Nintendo's performances for a second, because I really feel this hasn't gotten enough attention (especially since FF7 has gotten more attention!):

- Marth completely rolls over and dies against Phoenix Wright despite having strong upset support, can't even break 45%
- Falcon impresses many by hanging tough with Alucard and showing he probably is stronger 1v1 in a 24 hour match (not me, though! I had him winning with like 53% argh)
- N comes close to getting doubled by Bayonetta in a match where a quarter of the board had him winning (N had more support than Captain Falcon disgusting)
- Ike nearly chokes a match away to Protoman, underperforming significantly relative to board expectations
- Ridley bombs against Zidane even though he's well above him in last contest's stats
- Groose ridiculously bombs in a match where he was heavily favored to win, coming in third against Yoshimitus and Lu Bu
- Game and Watch lets Lee Everett come very close to him in a day match after we've seen new characters bomb left and right. In his defense, this was the bracket favorite (not to me though, again! Like Falcon, G&W majorly disappointed me :()
- Tom Nook looks like he'd have lost a 24 hour match to Pyramid Head despite new games and the biggest pic advantage of the contest so far.
- Missingno nearly blows the match to Tidus when he was projected to double him and expected to blow him out at the least by 90% of the board
- Pit, having the majority of the brackets, is getting squashed by Cecil and wrexed by Wrex

If you're gonna call out FF7, look at what Nintendo is doing!

We don't need any more FFVI characters. I guess if you people want to shoot for Mog or Shadow. FFVII is pretty much tapped out as well unless we just want to try to "complete the set" by going for Red XIII, Yuffie, and Cait Sith.

Don't really have a lot of faith in any Mortal Kombat or Street Fighter characters we haven't seen yet. Maybe Reptile, maybe Vega.

We definitely don't need any new Mario or Zelda characters. They're definitely tapped out.

I think he does look like his Fire Red interpretation, but I always thought that design sucked too, compared to the R/B/Y version.

I think it's better if no one steps up. If the ceiling keeps lowering with no one raising, eventually you'll have lots of potential high tier close together.

Time for damage control...

- Marth completely rolls over and dies against Phoenix Wright despite having strong upset support, can't even break 45%

Phoenix was likely to be stronger this year.


- Falcon impresses many by hanging tough with Alucard and showing he probably is stronger 1v1 in a 24 hour match (not me, though! I had him winning with like 53% argh)

You can't blame someone for losing a close match when everything everything pointed this to be a close match.


- N comes close to getting doubled by Bayonetta in a match where a quarter of the board had him winning (N had more support than Captain Falcon disgusting)

New character, not their fault the board overestimated him, N should have had no support regardless.


- Ike nearly chokes a match away to Protoman, underperforming significantly relative to board expectations

I agree, Ike should have won that match easily.


- Ridley bombs against Zidane even though he's well above him in last contest's stats

lol using Cloud/Ridley at face value, there's a reason why almost everyone went with Zidane


- Groose ridiculously bombs in a match where he was heavily favored to win, coming in third against Yoshimitus and Lu Bu

Again can't blame the new character for the board's mistake.


- Game and Watch lets Lee Everett come very close to him in a day match after we've seen new characters bomb left and right. In his defense, this was the bracket favorite (not to me though, again! Like Falcon, G&W majorly disappointed me :()

New character and G&W was predicted to be weak, likely the weakest outside of Tharja to reach the second round.


- Tom Nook looks like he'd have lost a 24 hour match to Pyramid Head despite new games and the biggest pic advantage of the contest so far.

While Nook looked the best he was without his apron, 2007 Pyramid Head showed he would easily win over Nook


- Missingno nearly blows the match to Tidus when he was projected to double him and expected to blow him out at the least by 90% of the board

Joke characters lose their strength in the next contest.


- Pit, having the majority of the brackets, is getting squashed by Cecil and wrexed by Wrex

I would like to imagine people forgot Knuckles/Cecil, there is no way Cecil should not be the favourite against Pit.

Char, I don't disagree that there are other possible explanations for the matches I listed.

It's just that if there's an excuse for almost every example of Nintendo underperforming, the odds rise significantly that those excuses don't hold water - and they're just straight up underperforming. What will be the excuses if Charizard looks terrible against Riku or Sub-Zero exposes Bowser?

As I said, I'm taking debatable matches or ones that were unexpectedly close. Epona was the overwhelming, nearly 90% bracket favorite, and Mordin is hyper-weak. Not impressive to let him score nearly 40%.

I'm gonna go ahead and even damage control the Ike thing.

Ike (2010c) VS Proto Man (2010c)

Ike has a strength of 26.54.
Proto Man has a strength of 25.72.

Ike wins with 51.54% of the vote!


People giving Ike a free pass easy win is something I never understood, personally.
