This (not this current match, but the upcoming one) is like the fourth successive match where the matter of who'll be the second place finisher was called into question.

And I'm 0-3 and if I stick with Lenneth it's probably going to be 0-4!

And all on matches where I heavily considered switching in the final hour and just didn't. Everyone should just pick opposite of me. >_>

Also guys all KH is proving is that Missingno is much, much weaker in a night match than a day one.

Clearly Missingno/Crono was legit, but Missingno would have breaten Sephiroth 60/40 in a day match.

Quick KH through all of those things you've used and Missingno/Yoshi, what is Yoshi expected to get on Link next round?

Zero is now tripling Kratos. He is almost equaling the percentage that Cloud AND Sephiroth managed on Kratos (and Lloyd). Absolutely stunning and also even better news for Crono than it was 20 minutes ago.

I need to get everyone to just start laughing and go, "oh that stats topic just needlessly puffing up crono again." then they forget that Crono > Pikachu is the one legitimate thing we got out of all this!

...it really would have been more effective if i hadn't explained it. >_>

SFF and LPF does the bulk of the work. It'd have been even worse if he'd had me splice in Cloud/Squall 2004 with Cloud/Snake 2010.

I'm not sure what Crono you want me to use here (clearly not the one beating both L and Pikachu), but virtually any one you use in relation to that Link is gonna result in Pikachu beating the hell out of him with at least 90/10, before Magus saps him of even more strength.

Kefka beat the hell out of two people he was supposed to have no chance against according to most of us. Zero is putting up a really good percentage, but it's not unprecedented - a lot of us were expecting it with this setup. If he goes and beats the holy hell out of Rikku next round (assuming she makes it), it'll hold a lot more weight.

And yes, that means I wouldn't expect Zero to blow out Pikachu in excess of 60/40 (like the Kratos = Lloyd would currently project here), unless he got something like this awesome beam sabre in the face of a dorky looking rat for his pic.

But neither can I really give Kratos that much more credit because he's still losing to Bartz's chocobo. Yeesh. Zero > Pikachu by a healthy amount seems pretty safe.

If Kratos fails to beat Boko then all Tales characters must be excommunicated from all contests forthwith. The first time they fail is quite funny but by this point its not even that interesting to see what new nadir they can sink to. With this match we have reached the Challenger Deep of futility.

- Zero is the best character in the bracket
- Zero will likely stand up to Mega Man and let Charizard through for the sake of my bracket
- This match makes Crono look great, meaning he probably crushes Magus en route to beating Pikasuck
- lol fails of failphonia
