Too bad it'll be Zelda in that match. >_> --- BOP Results: http://www.freewebs.com/charmander6000/CB9%20BOP.xls Points: 58/72 Today's Picks: Mega Man and Kratos |
Karma Hunter posted... I wouldn't judge it on Magikarp. He's clearly getting *some* strength from being a joke character. Let's take a look at Charizard's own strength. Honestly, while the odds are still vanishingly slim imho, he has to worry about against Zelda. Charizard is hardly a joke... --- The Artist Commonly Known as The Hardcore Kid |
Oh,
and since no one's posted any numbers of what they think a good
performance for Charizard would be this round, I'll be satisfied with
the guy if he can post anything above a good 61/39 on Riku. If he can
against the odds double Riku it means there's a decent chance that he's
retained his strength from the Mario match and he's going to the finals.
Conversely, anything that puts him into the mid 50s on Riku means he starts getting closer to that... Captain Falcon level, eugh. Now that being said Riku's a tough cookie to gauge. I get the feeling he's significantly weakened along with Sora (Sora got noticeably less on Scorpion than he's projected to on Sub-Zero). But make no mistake breaking 61/39 would still be a good performance, and a doubling would prove he's still got lightning in a bottle. --- http://i.imgur.com/xiKRQ2F.gif Proud to share the same sig as Chen Kenichi's #1 Fan (also Yoblazer) |
maybe charizard will lose round 1 wouldn't that be cool --- i'll do rydia -Dante |
Too bad it'll be Rikku, not Zero in that match... Yeah my guru bracket had no hope. --- ~ Ringworm ~ |

Ringworm posted... Too bad it'll be Rikku, not Zero in that match... Rikku is a sexy, sexy pick. <_< *Not* an impossible pick at all. Zero has struggled before in these multiway situations. He lost cleanly to Hayabusa and whatever you want to complain about fanbase splits in that match (MM maybe, Zero I ain't biting) he then went out and nearly choked next round against Vivi. If you think this year's Rikku can be a touch above that Vivi and account for some variance, she can win and make it into the Mega Man match, assuming she can take down ? Block. ...I kinda wish I had Rikku to R3 now. That is just such a sexy pick. --- http://i.imgur.com/xiKRQ2F.gif Proud to share the same sig as Chen Kenichi's #1 Fan (also Yoblazer) |
Lightning wins Round 1 due to DK/Falco Split Lightning wins Round 2 due to Zelda/Charizard Split Lightning wins Round 3 due to Mega Man/Zero Split Lightning wins Round 4 due to Mario/Samus Split I don't think I can come up with a reasonable scenario for the finals though. Curses. --- i'll do rydia -Dante |
Karma Hunter posted... Ringworm posted...Too bad it'll be Rikku, not Zero in that match... I wish I'd given Rikku some more thought instead of just defaulting to Zero there. --- Die young and save yourself. Brace for the G's, and fast heel-toe work. |
The Mana Sword posted... Lightning wins Round 1 due to DK/Falco Split Link/Epona split !!! --- Die young and save yourself. Brace for the G's, and fast heel-toe work. |
Nailed it. --- i'll do rydia -Dante |
Too bad Raiden's gonna knockout Link coz of Link/Yoshi split, right? --- Die young and save yourself. Brace for the G's, and fast heel-toe work. |
MGS screws me again. --- i'll do rydia -Dante |
I
just realized we're finally gonna have our first half-decent look on
Kratos this year since, like... 2006. Dude could be practically
anywhere, especially since he keeps pumping out big titles. --- http://i.imgur.com/xiKRQ2F.gif Proud to share the same sig as Chen Kenichi's #1 Fan (also Yoblazer) |
I
wonder if anybody at all even picked Lightning winning the whole
contest. Has there ever been a contest where literally nobody picked the
champion correctly? --- http://myanimelist.net/animelist/swordz9 |
Kratos
underperformance incoming. Drake has surpassed him as Sony's guy the
last few years. Plus he really hasn't had much since GoWIII. One or two
spinoffs that came and went with barely a whisper. --- Chen Kenichi's #1 Fan (also Yoblazer) http://i.imgur.com/gdl8lcn.jpg |
swordz9 posted... I wonder if anybody at all even picked Lightning winning the whole contest. Has there ever been a contest where literally nobody picked the champion correctly? IIRC 0.27% of the site picked L-Block. --- i'll do rydia -Dante |
I
don't even know what an underperformance from Kratos would look like (I
guess we'll see in 10 minutes, though). If he can 70/30 Travis it'd
look pretty cash imo since that's what Zelda got. Anything below 65/35
would probably look kinda lame, and anything near 60/40 lol no --- http://i.imgur.com/xiKRQ2F.gif Proud to share the same sig as Chen Kenichi's #1 Fan (also Yoblazer) |
What if Kratos 70/30s Travis but loses to Recette what then tough guy --- ~War~ |
ExThaNemesis posted... Karma Hunter posted...Ringworm posted...Too bad it'll be Rikku, not Zero in that match... ...Damn it, you're right! Zero's been kind of weak lately...I don't know. MMX looked pretty good in R1...let's see how Zero does. --- RIP GrapefruitKing and Emporer_Kazbar. You will be missed. |
I'd
imagine a few people have Lightning winning the entire contest without
being favorites brackets. Nobody on this board, but Lightning is pretty
popular despite her games' mixed reception. I'm interested to see how well she does for herself. --- Current Let's Play: Final Fantasy II - http://forums.somethingawful.com/showthread.php?threadid=3557012 Previous: http://lparchive.org/author/mega64 |

Her Rivalry Rumble aside, here's a list of vote-in entrants who have gotten last place in their poll: Lightning + Barthandelus (with Yuna + Seymour) Harman Smith + Kun Lan Battler + Beatrice Jigglypuff (with Missingno, Mudkip, Toad, Scorpion, Dan Hibiki, and Yoshimitsu) Andrew Ryan (with Big Daddy) Doc Louis (with Ridley) Emil Castagnier Jade Curtiss CATS Killer7 Ikaruga God Hand Company of Heroes If you're within that type of company, you shouldn't have the benefit of the doubt. Lightning's not the only entrant there who had an excuse of SFF/LFF, either. She may prove to be strong, but frankly, there's been no proof she has benefitted from having games released. If you have strength, odds are, you can find some way to avoid last place in the types of twelve-way polls that Raiden + Vamp, Frog, and Gears of War 2 can win. --- T H E S T A B L E - bring on Epona! http://img812.imageshack.us/img812/3492/eponaharr.jpg |
The Mana Sword posted... swordz9 posted...I wonder if anybody at all even picked Lightning winning the whole contest. Has there ever been a contest where literally nobody picked the champion correctly? Yeah, that's probably as close as we'll ever get. Generally speaking, I'm sure most characters have at least one bracket--if nothing else, a joke bracket. --- RIP GrapefruitKing and Emporer_Kazbar. You will be missed. |
All I'm getting from that is CATS > Lightning would have been the best upset in a normal bracket. Damn you Bacon. --- ~War~ |
And the first major joke character is officially dead! Can Rikku continue the trend? --- http://i.imgur.com/xiKRQ2F.gif Proud to share the same sig as Chen Kenichi's #1 Fan (also Yoblazer) |
