Karma Hunter posted... Honestly this looks better for FF7 to me than worse. I didn't even expect Aeris to be in the match, and she's built a case that she should be favored in a night or perhaps even a 24 hour poll. You really expected her to lose to Rinoa of all people? o_O --- Brawl FC - 1332 8069 6690 http://i.imgur.com/OZ9aS.png |
Using Chrom=Tharja Shepard is barely over 60% on The Boss In comparison Luigi easily doubles her using WCC. --- BOP Results: http://www.freewebs.com/charmander6000/CB9%20BOP.xls Points: 65/81 Today's Picks: Link and Aerith |
Wrex and Mordin may beat Master Chief. Chief is a nothing now. --- Chen Kenichi's #1 Fan (also Yoblazer) http://i.imgur.com/NQTthNf.jpg |
Once again: Epona is legit. --- Hey, its that SuperNiceDog! Congrats to the Guru 2011 winner |
From: KanzarisKelshen | Posted: 8/19/2013 2:41:25 PM | #247 LinkMarioSamus posted...More likely a combination of Aeris dropping and Shepard boosting. well, he kinda has to be at 30 to do this to Aeris. she might have dropped a bit but 29 is about the lowest i'd put Aeris. --- http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lxkdr0uNc91qlu5jao1_r1_400.gif |
GloryChaos posted... You really expected her to lose to Rinoa of all people? o_O you know what he meant, he expected Shepard to destroy her here unless you're intentionally misreading it, in which case lol |
charmander6000 posted... Using Chrom=Tharja Shepard is barely over 60% on The Boss Boss is underrated more than a touch in 2010 (she's real bad in the day), but she also might be stronger now, I'd like to wait and see on her before making any judgments. Edit: Though I think the Chrom poll and her next match are day matches anyway, so hopefully it'll roughly line up. --- http://i.imgur.com/xiKRQ2F.gif Proud to share the same sig as Chen Kenichi's #1 Fan (also Yoblazer) |

Auron
scored 57% against Aeris and 56% against Zero in 2010. Do you guys
really believe Shepard is nearly as strong as 2010 Zero? I highly doubt so, this is probably a combination of Aeris dropping and a decent ME3 boost. --- Zinsanity of the Helix Board |

It's
possible. We need to remember that the ME series playrate is much
higher now than it was in early 2010. Most of the big ME fans on the
board now hadn't even touched the series when Shep faced Pikachu, and he
still managed a good performance. btw, played the original back in 2007 yeaaaaaaaaaaaa superior --- Chen Kenichi's #1 Fan (also Yoblazer) http://i.imgur.com/xiKRQ2F.gif |
Boss
is underrated more than a touch in 2010 (she's real bad in the day),
but she also might be stronger now, I'd like to wait and see on her
before making any judgments. It's possible and Luigi probably wins in this match too, I'm just more surprised on how well Tharja is doing, she may be a fan favourite, but I did not expect her to be close to Chrom/Lucina Maybe just being a Nintendo option against two characters far from Nintendo helps. --- BOP Results: http://www.freewebs.com/charmander6000/CB9%20BOP.xls Points: 65/81 Today's Picks: Link and Aerith |
Zero almost lost to Vivi and lost to Hayabusa, he hasn't looked good since 2003/2004 --- BOP Results: http://www.freewebs.com/charmander6000/CB9%20BOP.xls Points: 65/81 Today's Picks: Link and Aerith |
charmander6000 posted... Boss is underrated more than a touch in 2010 (she's real bad in the day), but she also might be stronger now, I'd like to wait and see on her before making any judgments. how many Nintendo fans would even know Tharja is a Nintendo character in the first place after all, Awakening was released in 2013 in America |
FF7 never got worse. Nintendo's fanbase in general got bigger. --- http://s19.postimage.org/aosug5mrn/Persona4.png |
Xuxon posted... From: KanzarisKelshen | Posted: 8/19/2013 2:41:25 PM | #247LinkMarioSamus posted...More likely a combination of Aeris dropping and Shepard boosting. Yeah, but the point I'm making is that Shep's 2010 value was BS. He was most emphatically not a character who was worth 30% on BL, he was closer to a guy like Ike. He boosted a bunch and seems real now. |
how many Nintendo fans would even know Tharja is a Nintendo character in the first place after all, Awakening was released in 2013 in America Awakening is considered one of the games to buy for the 3DS, not all Nintendo fans will know her, but anyone that has played the game likely has. --- BOP Results: http://www.freewebs.com/charmander6000/CB9%20BOP.xls Points: 65/81 Today's Picks: Link and Aerith |
He
got 47% on Crono back in 2007; that was a damn good showing. The
Hayabusa match should be thrown out. Zero would throttle him in a 1v1. --- Chen Kenichi's #1 Fan (also Yoblazer) http://i.imgur.com/a4GuDV3.gif |
I
think at this point Tharja, Vincent, Wrex, etc. have proved that being
optional is almost meaningless when it comes to your popularity on
GameFAQs. That's why people come here. It wouldn't hurt Mog in the
slightest either, I'd bet almost anything. --- http://i.imgur.com/xiKRQ2F.gif Proud to share the same sig as Chen Kenichi's #1 Fan (also Yoblazer) |
You know who else is optional? MAGUS --- A refusal of praise is a desire to be praised twice. |
ChenKenichiFan posted... He got 47% on Crono back in 2007; that was a damn good showing. The Hayabusa match should be thrown out. Zero would throttle him in a 1v1. The Crono match is a textbook fraud showing caused by the match picture, as Zero's next year (losing cleanly to Hayabusa and practically losing to Vivi) showed. --- http://i.imgur.com/xiKRQ2F.gif Proud to share the same sig as Chen Kenichi's #1 Fan (also Yoblazer) |
The_Djoker posted... FF7 never got worse. Nintendo's fanbase in general got bigger. That doesn't really hold up for Cloud and Vincent looking bad. Ok yeah Dunban is Nintendo, but Xenoblade was such a colossal flop in this contest that it doesn't matter. --- http://myanimelist.net/animelist/swordz9 |
Then00bAvenger posted... You know who else is optional? MAGUS Yeah, but people bullied you if you actually missed him. --- Brawl FC - 1332 8069 6690 http://i.imgur.com/OZ9aS.png |
Then00bAvenger posted... You know who else is optional? MAGUS That's right, he's just that bad based on pure talent. --- http://i.imgur.com/xiKRQ2F.gif Proud to share the same sig as Chen Kenichi's #1 Fan (also Yoblazer) |
He
got 47% on Crono back in 2007; that was a damn good showing. The
Hayabusa match should be thrown out. Zero would throttle him in a 1v1. Forgot about that match. Zero would easily win over Hayabusa today, but he did have strength back then. To me Zero seems to be one step below the near-elites now. --- BOP Results: http://www.freewebs.com/charmander6000/CB9%20BOP.xls Points: 65/81 Today's Picks: Link and Aerith |
This match gives me some much needed reassurance for Vincent....whew.... --- Drop it to the floor... |
swordz9 posted... The_Djoker posted...FF7 never got worse. Nintendo's fanbase in general got bigger. Aeris looked bad last round too. She's currently less than 100 votes away from post-ME2 (PS3)/ME3 Shepard. --- http://i.imgur.com/xiKRQ2F.gif Proud to share the same sig as Chen Kenichi's #1 Fan (also Yoblazer) |
It wasn't a "clean" loss to Hayabusa, are you kidding me? --- Chen Kenichi's #1 Fan (also Yoblazer) http://i.imgur.com/a4GuDV3.gif |
Zero overperforming on Crono seems far more likely than taking that result as the gospel, considering his performances since 06. He's a long way away from the guy who once made Sonic sweat and put up 44% on MM. --- Demyx is better than Axel. http://www.last.fm/user/crazydom |
ChenKenichiFan posted... It wasn't a "clean" loss to Hayabusa, are you kidding me? He'd have lost AGAIN if Hayabusa hadn't run into Snake. The 'Nintendo LFF' theory in that match is nonsense, it was Hayabusa folding to Snake. See: 2007. --- http://i.imgur.com/xiKRQ2F.gif Proud to share the same sig as Chen Kenichi's #1 Fan (also Yoblazer) |
15% update for Tharja, ASV is here and Aeris isn't dropping much</wishful thinking> --- http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lxkdr0uNc91qlu5jao1_r1_400.gif |
Reminder: Rinoa is going to be below Olimar in the Chester-Stats. --- ~War~ |
Though
Zero did look quite good last round, too bad he wasn't given a match
against someone like Dante to test if he's bottom of near-elite or top
of high midcarder --- BOP Results: http://www.freewebs.com/charmander6000/CB9%20BOP.xls Points: 65/81 Today's Picks: Link and Aerith |
Karma Hunter posted... swordz9 posted...The_Djoker posted...FF7 never got worse. Nintendo's fanbase in general got bigger. Before this match I thought she was a lock for R3 and that Shepard had literally 0 chance of beating her so this just makes me think she's weaker to be losing. --- http://myanimelist.net/animelist/swordz9 |
Give
me a f***ing break if you're willing to say that Zero overperformed in
some match because of picture advantage and then won't even acknowledge
Hayabusa's insaaaaaaane pic advantage in 2008. http://www.gamefaqscontests.com/gallery/albums/cb7/cb7-19.jpg It really doesn't get any bigger than that. And there's nothing asinine about Zero being informally a part of the Nintendo family. He's just as big a part of it as MM and X. --- Chen Kenichi's #1 Fan (also Yoblazer) http://i.imgur.com/gdl8lcn.jpg |
Reminder: Rinoa is going to be below Olimar in the Chester-Stats. Olimar was underrated (plus female Shepard), do wonder if Rinoa was SFF, Seifer looked pretty bad too. --- BOP Results: http://www.freewebs.com/charmander6000/CB9%20BOP.xls Points: 65/81 Today's Picks: Link and Aerith |
Adding
on to what yo said, Zero (and everyone from the Mega Man series) just
looked weaker in 4-ways. They've rebounded since then. --- Black Turtle did a pretty good job. |
Magus is the antagonist for a good chunk of CT, so being optional wouldn't really matter anyway. Also, assuming Shepard and X advance to R3, who would you take for second considering Link will likely SFF the tar out of X? --- Current Let's Play: Final Fantasy II - http://forums.somethingawful.com/showthread.php?threadid=3557012 Previous: http://lparchive.org/author/mega64 |

That's why people come here. It wouldn't hurt Mog in the slightest either, I'd bet almost anything. I'd agree. Though I still think Tharja's the weakest of the FE characters - I'd easily take all three of Chrom, Lucina and Lyndis to smash the scrubs that she got. --- "Divine judgment for an evil soul!

ChenKenichiFan posted... Give me a f***ing break if you're willing to say that Zero overperformed in some match because of picture advantage and then won't even acknowledge Hayabusa's insaaaaaaane pic advantage in 2008. There's far more independence there. That's why MMX was able to nearly beat Mario. Not to mention the general worthlessness of the competition - this is like blaming Jinjo and Lucas on Kirby's throttling at the hands of Big Boss. Not to mention that picture gives an advantage to Ryu H, yes- http://www.gamefaqscontests.com/gallery/albums/cb6/cb6-40.jpg But this is preposterous beyond all comparison. You can't even SEE anyone except Zero when you first look at it. --- http://i.imgur.com/xiKRQ2F.gif Proud to share the same sig as Chen Kenichi's #1 Fan (also Yoblazer) |
KamikazePotato posted... Adding on to what yo said, Zero (and everyone from the Mega Man series) just looked weaker in 4-ways. They've rebounded since then. It's funny to say that when that performance on Crono is by far the best Zero has looked since 04. --- Demyx is better than Axel. http://www.last.fm/user/crazydom |
Well this is over. Happy Aerith managed to show up though! Would've had a night match I think. --- We are living our lives Abound with so much information |
Don't give up hope! Aeris would never want us to give up hope! If only Bacon hadn't chosen to do a bonus poll....... --- Fine! I'll go to the store and get your Goddamn drain cleaner! Character Battle IX Tingle Victory Parade - the journey is over.... |
swordz9 posted... Before this match I thought she was a lock for R3 and that Shepard had literally 0 chance of beating her so this just makes me think she's weaker to be losing. Shepard was a significant guru/BOP favorite and also the slight Oracle favorite...so clearly you were not on the wavelength of anybody else. --- www.gamefaqscontests.com www.gamefaqscontests.com/gallery |
The
pic for the Vivi match was also pretty even (advantage slightly Zero,
if anything), and he still almost lost. Vivi is not worth 47% on Crono. --- http://i.imgur.com/xiKRQ2F.gif Proud to share the same sig as Chen Kenichi's #1 Fan (also Yoblazer) |
Denzokuken posted... Don't give up hope! Aeris would never want us to give up hope! If only Bacon hadn't chosen to do a bonus poll....... LUUUSSSTTTERRRRRRRR!!! (well we probably would've had a dumb bonus poll anyway) --- www.gamefaqscontests.com www.gamefaqscontests.com/gallery |
Also I can't believe so many people are calling this! Trends or not, uh, at least wait for it to get above 100 votes? --- http://i.imgur.com/xiKRQ2F.gif Proud to share the same sig as Chen Kenichi's #1 Fan (also Yoblazer) |

this is like blaming Jinjo and Lucas on Kirby's throttling at the hands of Big Boss. Isn't this common consensus though? --- No problem! This is a cute and pop genocide of love! |
Karma Hunter posted... Also I can't believe so many people are calling this! Trends or not, uh, at least wait for it to get above 100 votes? Yeah this match is very up in the air right now. Shepard is a slight favorite maybe...but not much of one. This should be the best time for him and he's not really doing much. If Aeris can get the traditional FF7 SNV (which is not guaranteed, as her trends may be different), then Aeris can pull a comeback even if she falls behind by 200-250 votes. It's unclear if Shepard will ever lead by that much anyway. --- www.gamefaqscontests.com www.gamefaqscontests.com/gallery |
