You are all realizing a Final Fantasy V character would beat Wesker.


Eh, not these days, not unless Wesker lost his RE5 boost. Wesker > Ken in 2010 (Ken had brackets and Wesker wins a 24 hour match easy), and Ken did much better on Ganondorf than Boko's doing on Zero.

FF's still got a loyal base that would chop you up even if it is a tad broken now...

You guys really overreact to this Tales stuff. They perform basically the same every year (except for Tales of the Abyss, which is its own special case of awful), and they're all high fodderish. The yearly reactions to them are really strange.

Black Turtle did a pretty good job.

This is looking like Division 6 for me. 3rd straight zero match unless Kratos somehow wins.

Only this time the entire leaderboard isn't failing with me so it's far more destructive.

That doesn't mean anything. Zelda's is even more loyal and Midna got blown out by Scorpion while Groose got blown out by Yoshimitsu and Lu Bu. I'm not saying it would be the easiest match for Wesker, but he can handle that.

Assuming Zero and Lloyd/Kratos haven't changed since 2005, which, considering this site, is probably true, then Zero is looking exactly the same as before. Which isn't a bad thing.

Yeah, I don't really get the Tales complaints either. In a bracket of 243 characters there should be a few of them in. Of course, whether the bracket should ever be as big as that is another question (it shouldn't).

Zero's barely doing better with a massive pic disparity than he did on Lloyd in 2005, who is weaker than Kratos historically, while Kratos A. is losing to a Chocobo.

And those Chocobo voters are going to anti-vote Zero for rounds to come, hail BirdFAQs

The issue is they're NEVER going to amount to anything, and for me, watching them stink up the joint year in, year out is just disheartening.

To Luigi's credit, he is consistent way at the top (like, Link level at the top) when it comes to bringing in votes. Even when he's getting blown the hell out. People just love voting in Luigi matches.

I have massive LuigiFEAR in debated matches. If Ness hadn't been there I'd have picked him over Big Boss. I'm still afraid he'll win even with Ness and then Sephiroth has to deal with him. (but thankfully Kirby would be there).

I'd be pretty surprised if Kratos somehow came back for this. For a while he was kinda, sorta hanging around there but still falling further behind, but now it just looks a lot worse.

Hey charmander where is Luigi's match on these top 10s

He's right in the middle for day matches (17th highest out of 37), as an individual he's 5th behind Snake, Mario, Sonic and Crono.

In comparison Big Boss's night match is 6th least popular, but as an individual he is 8th behind Mewtwo, Link, Yoshi, MMX, Red, Tifa and Cloud
