Just saw this match for the first time today. what the. augh. --- xp1337: Don't you wish there was a spell-checker that told you when you a word out? GotD (219/384) Melee v FFX |
1337gamerpr0 posted... Karma Hunter posted...Rallying, the solution to every match Rallying is worthless in that match. I know you're joking about asking for my opinion, but it is. You cannot rally in a fight where you have two nigh-equally matched entrants splitting votes left and right AND a third option who has no relationship to either of the first two. It'd be like putting in two liked LoL characters against Squall and hoping they'd catch a mega rally to win as everybody focuses on one of them. If that sounded stupid to you, it's because it is. One entrant must fall if you want the other to have a chance. |
charmander6000 posted... I have reservations about this smart voter theory. Not that voters aren't smart (clearly, they must be for DK is winning today), but you think these smart voters that are abandoning Falco would give up voting for DK when they see that the big ape has a 10% lead on Lightning. Yet, we're not seeing that. http://www.gamefaqs.com/poll/5001 16.85% of the site checks the results of every single match before voting. Then you have another 21.34% of the site that will check out the results sometimes. --- Luster Soldier --- ~Shield Bearer~ | ~Data Analyst~ Popular at school, but not as cool as SuperNiceDog, Guru Champ! |

Sorry for doubting you DK. I thought a Final Fantasy lead would be wayyyyy stronger than this. Never again! --- Never a dull moment. |
You
know, I wonder how many people in Expert took this. Just using myself
as a reference because I'm at the bottom of the named portion, I don't
think it's reasonable to assume everyone behind me who could pass me on
this will miss, but I don't actually expect to fall that far. --- xp1337: Don't you wish there was a spell-checker that told you when you a word out? GotD (219/384) Melee v FFX |

I took the upset in expert, but I'm so far behind, i'm not gonna gain much ground --- Drop it to the floor... |
This division has killed me in the expert, but I'm expecting to stay around in the same spot on the leaderboard. 2nd round will probably kill a lot off people off. It'll probably make or break mine, because I'm gonna go for some questionable upsets. Like Ryu > X, being one of them. --- http://i.imgur.com/32RNLnc.gif |
Karma Hunter posted... Pokemon seems more independent to me. If anything I think Zelda's already kinda slim upset chances just went out the window. Yeah, if this is supposed to be a good thing for Zelda, then you can throw my bracket in the trash now. "Pokémon is more independent" is pretty much the linchpin of my bracket--namely, that Charizard can make like Blue did and take advantage of a Nintendo split in Round 4. So if that fundamental assumption is wrong...well, okay, it was always a kind of crazy upset, but Charizard did fairly well on Mario in a 1v1 so a rematch with Samus in the poll, the upset has to be possible, right? --- RIP GrapefruitKing and Emporer_Kazbar. You will be missed. |
So..what happens if Nier somehow scores 3% tomorrow? --- Nominate Spring Breeze Dancin' from Mystical Ninja Starring Goemon for Character Battle IX! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NJrnlFW4IMc |
I
could see Zelda winning as a longshot. With three Nintendo fanbases you
have the potential for something really screwy to go on. Wario once
beat the hell out of Captain Falcon thanks to screwy Nintendo SFF. --- http://i.imgur.com/xiKRQ2F.gif Proud to share the same sig as Chen Kenichi's #1 Fan (also Yoblazer) |
Most independent or least dependent would me more appropriate for Pokemon if you ask me. --- I have Cloud winning this contest, which means I'll beat most of you... Nawt gonna happen >_> |
So what is the consensus right now concerning Division 9? I picked the division final to be MM/Zero/Charizard. MM and Charizard are fairly obvious (unless DK pulls off some kind of absurd miracle, which isn't impossible considering that he's Nintendo's Kefka when it comes to predictions), but I'm not as confident about having picked Zero>Rikku. Maybe more confident after Zero made that huge showing in Round 1 but I just don't know anything about FF characters and their strength aside from FFVII and Auron/Squall. Good pick, then? --- Every day the rest of your life is changed forever. |

Yet, we're not seeing that. Yeah. I usually just vote right away, but when I know there's a chance of a close match and my vote normally would've gone to the third contestant, I sometimes wait to see if it might be prudent to give it to the one I want to win out of those two. Of course, DK's winning so commandingly here that if I'd waited, I would've just stuck with voting for Falco! But, yes. I'm not normally one to check the results before voting, but did so for Tidus-Missingno because I had a feeling Missingno might need my help and my vote would've otherwise gone to Banjo. --- RIP GrapefruitKing and Emporer_Kazbar.

Kinda my thoughts too. I still picked Mario to win but I thought a very long time about picking Charizard. --- Every day the rest of your life is changed forever. |
MM/Zero/Zard should be the overwhelming favorite for the division final. Not sure who is favored to win that. Zero is out, obviously. I get the feeling that Zard probably is the Guru favorite in a similar fashion to Crono/Pikachu but someone who knows/is willing to check can say for sure. --- xp1337: Don't you wish there was a spell-checker that told you when you a word out? GotD (219/384) Melee v FFX |
I'm actually one of the few (probably) who'll have Megaman winning in MM/Zero/Zard match. --- I have Cloud winning this contest, which means I'll beat most of you... Nawt gonna happen >_> |
Charizard is the favourite to beat Mega Man in the guru by quite a bit. --- Pokemon VGC2013 US National - 39th place Pokemon VGC2013 Worlds LCQ - Top 32 |
If
you consider Charizard's performance on Mario legit (or legit enough to
be replicated by the time he gets back to him) you should have put him
in the finals without so much as a second thought. Mario's 53.5% was a
ridiculously wimpy performance, and the most a Non-Noble allowed from
any outsider that entire contest bar Missingno. Samus will blow that
away beyond any shadow of a doubt to turn it into a rout for Charizard. --- http://i.imgur.com/xiKRQ2F.gif Proud to share the same sig as Chen Kenichi's #1 Fan (also Yoblazer) |
what if.... Mario/Samus/Charizard turns into a close 3-way match *gasp* |
hahaha expecting good close all Nintendo matches prepare yourself for all-day same percentages where each of them are never in contention against the others --- http://i.imgur.com/xiKRQ2F.gif Proud to share the same sig as Chen Kenichi's #1 Fan (also Yoblazer) |
1337gamerpr0 posted... what if.... Not a chance in hell. Samus will fold super hard if Mario is threatened. Mr. Nintendo will never allow intra-company upstarts to beat him. |
Karma Hunter posted... hahaha expecting good close all Nintendo matches Charizard>Mario>Samus CONFIRMED by proxy, Snake>Link>Charizard CONFIRMED because Pokemon doesn't fold thank you KH ;) |
Megaman
is going to win, and for what it's worth, it is never going to be in
doubt. He's going to hurt Charizard, even with Zero there... --- From: Regaro_Ukiera | MWC is god-tier |

what were predictions for Charizard's % anyway? |
What the **** Lightning. Donkey Kong winning despite Falco. Lightning doesn't deserve to appear in these things anymore --- Bracket for the Great GameFAQs Character Battle IX contest: http://www.gamefaqs.com/features/cb9_code?c=5yiset6iJe2HCg87EdqV1-UnpdF4VgRZC5 |

XD Expert Challenge. I dropped one place with Lightning > DK. I should have kept track how many times I've been that "1 more users tied at." >_> --- xp1337: Don't you wish there was a spell-checker that told you when you a word out? GotD (219/384) Melee v FFX |
I
honestly wouldn't be surprised if this didn't drop, which would
definitely infer that Charizard has retained the bulk of its strength.
May still have lost a touch because this is just such a lopsided picture
but you can't argue with 72% on Riku if it holds. --- http://i.imgur.com/xiKRQ2F.gif Proud to share the same sig as Chen Kenichi's #1 Fan (also Yoblazer) |
2Dover3D posted... I really hope Charizard stays around this level since that percentage is kinda scary Fixed. |
71.49% What is "% Snake is expected to get on Riku" --- www.dudewheresmyfreedom.com Proud to share the same beliefs as SmartMuffin |
How is anyone surprised by Charizard here? Nier is garbage and Riku is below Frog. --- Tornadoman78: tornadoman and tornadogirl like to kick box each other in my tornaolayzers and she dosent even mind getting hit |
Okay so Charizard isn't Solid Snake yet, good for the rest of the bracket I guess. --- www.dudewheresmyfreedom.com Proud to share the same beliefs as SmartMuffin |
