Guess you're not the biggest Raiden fan here then eh eh

Waluigi is now officially above Yoshi, causing the servers to explode again.

If Raiden can push to 28.5% on Link by the time this is over he'll have Waluigi avoiding the tripling against Link too

is there anything that glorious man-shaped thing can't do

ME seems pretty balanced, although it has a bad early vote. Probably a little more day oriented than night oriented though.

Is it a day match? I'd probably take Waluigi.

Not today
#372 | AxemRedRanger (Topic Creator) | Posted 8/19/2013 12:10:12 AM | message detail
Magus starts out strong with like 60% on Waluigi at the freeze and builds a lead for a little bit but a strong sustained 4chan rally eventually takes its toll and Waluigi ends up winning by 666 votes.

So...does anyone think Quote Factor will have an effect on any of the matches?

I think for the large majority it will be meaningless, but maybe there's some characters it will matter for - I just have no idea who!

What is a man? A miserable little pile of secrets! will put Dracula over Barret.

Not sure if he needs the quote advantage to beat Barret but he's beating Barret now regardless!

Eh, wrong topic.

And I do worry about RacistFAQs leading to Barret getting thrashed...

I'm assuming Dracula's quote will be shorted to "What is a man?" to fit...some of these other really long quotes look awkward to trim though. Wonder what Bacon will do for them.

Barret's could be pretty good if he just gets a bunch of cuss signs. Or of course the classic, there ain't no getting offa this train we're on!

We're all forgetting one guy in particular who is absolutely tailormade to boost from the quote round, and he will.

People still think Toon Link hurts Link? Everyone forgets just how divisive Wind Waker was when it first came out, but it's aged well and people are a lot more forgiving and nostalgic for it now. Plus I thought everyone argued that it didn't affect 2003 Link even though he had two non-SFF matches and kinda stunk up the joint in both.

Also, if we get Link/Cloud/Charizard, what will Charizard's percentage be after the first five minutes?

It SHOULD be 2003
WW was just released and it had mixed opinions about it
Most people didn't like cel shading graphics
It's only as the years passed that WW was started to get liked

Waluigi is at 24.91% on Link right now

just a little farther come on

It's pretty good! Not in the same league as the mainline games, but worthwhile for sure. Think it's a testament to how good Metal Gear is that even a game developed by the Bayonetta guys can be pretty fun.

Of course, it wasn't the same people, really, it was a different team. But still!

#391 | ZinsanityCraze | Posted 8/19/2013 4:36:20 AM | message detail
Pretty good showing from Raiden, ended up getting Alucard's percentage against a slightly LFFd Link. Alucard was possibly just as inflated/more inflated due to being the sole beneficiary of anti-Link votes in 1vs1.

Of course, this could be a weaker Link but I can't say for sure yet.

Maybe a little bit.

We're still one week away before it would be in full force.

Though even when school is in session the ASV has been a hell of a lot weaker overall in the past 4-5 years than it has been.

Understandable since like only 20% of the site users are under 18 now

Well I nearly didn't play it because of Bayonetta. Think Rising's main faults were down to Platinum, too. What did you expect?

Wind Waker still won Game of the Year on this site and did well in the first games contest (it beat Metroid Prime at least). I think the bigger factor was people not wanting a repeat champion.
