I was going to use Squall/Luigi trends to predict Big Boss with 60%, but I'll settle for the much more reasonable Bowser/The Boss trends.

Congratulations to SuperNiceDog, Guru Winner, who was smart enough to pick
your 7 time champion, Link.

To be fair you can still say it would be a good result from Big Boss here if you take the percentages put up by Mario and Luigi against Link literally and assumed they both got hit hard by the hammer equally which means Luigi is worth 44% on Mario. Factor in Ness here and it's ~40%. Still a boost from 2010!

Luigi barely extends his lead. He's probably got to do a lot better than that if The Boss/Bowser is any indication!

Problem is we're already at the height of the day vote- noon- since the ASV is dead. The day vote will stay this way for around 6 hours and then fade hard.

Seriously support the character that is supposed to win,it doesn't matter if your "favorite" will end up looking worse

It's not that they hate the other character, it's just that they prefer the one they are voting for. Also, voters are stupid, they should be voting to put my bracket on the leaderboard!

Generally speaking, day vote characters do better later on in day matches due to Europe going to sleep. However, a diluted Power Hour still exists, which Luigi is in right now. It should theoretically be his best time, so he's in some trouble here.

Shame, it means we'll have to put up with the boring fights for twice as long.

I get the impression that Link/Shepard/Draven will be an anti-climax. It's a shame that Shepard will be buried.

For what it's worth, Luigi ended up at a higher percentage than his power hour percentage in his round 1 match

Indeed.

Mario and Luigi at least have distinct personalities.

Not to mention, different names. Literally Snake and Snake.

Draven is going to maul Link. It's gonna be sad and I'll be offering therapy (and will probably be in need of some myself), but it's happening. Draven went from 55% on Jak to 78% on MEGA MAN X. He had that kind of explosion between rounds, and he's very likely going to get stronger now. Link's fans will give up and he'll finish tripled or worse. There is simply no place to rally for Link with any kind of frequency as to counter the LoL fanbase.

Hey Naked Snake and Solid Snake have extremely distinctive personalities, way more than Mario and Luigi. That's like saying Mario and Wario have the same personality, or something!

BB is a lot more important to his series too. Opinions differ wildly on both Snakes.
