Karma Hunter posted... 38% on Ryu H 2010 isn't that bad. Hayabusa's underrated in that year. He just fell off a cliff this contest because NG3 arguably killed his entire series in one fell swoop. Oh, I agree on both fronts. I had Hayabusa > Chief in 2010 after all (LOL XBox SFF). But I wouldn't give Crash more than 35% on Kirby directly, I think. --- http://media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lo22vfguji1qzxr43.gif |
Two contests in a row with Crash being stuck behind SFF in the stats. --- Currently Playing - Super Metroid, MGS4, Brawl, FFVII, Wind Waker, RE4, SOTC |
If quote factor exists, GlaDOS could overperform. Her quote is hilarious. --- Proud supporter of DogFAQs |
LeonhartFour posted... X-Stats: What I find mildly interesting from those is that it basically makes Elizabeth = 2k10 Drake. --- Crucifying my Oracle average one match at a time |
Makes sense. --- Currently Playing - Super Metroid, MGS4, Brawl, FFVII, Wind Waker, RE4, SOTC |
I think Magikarp could catch a joke-bandwagon and be a huge threat if he wasn't against Mega Man of all things |
Looks like these results point to Crono > Snake > Link > Cloud That looks good to me! --- Congratulations to SuperNiceDog, Guru Winner, who was smart enough to pick your 7 time champion, Link. |
If
anyone's gonna be helped by the quotes next match, it's gonna be Epona.
It's so stupid and out of place that it's guaranteed to get some joke
votes. --- http://i.imgur.com/xiKRQ2F.gif Proud to share the same sig as Chen Kenichi's #1 Fan (also Yoblazer) |
Lucario
did 0.03% better against Altair than Shulk did this contest. I think
33% on Altair makes you fodder without question, but yeah. To be fair Altair in 2008 is probably stronger than Altair in 2013 --- BOP Results: http://www.freewebs.com/charmander6000/CB9%20BOP.xls Points: 85/105 Today's Picks: Kirby and Solid Snake |
LinkMarioSamus posted... LeonhartFour posted...The funny thing is that we totally wrote Lucario off after that performance and we've never seen a whiff of him since. ...Did LMS just make a salient point? I was going to say that I'm not entirely sure; coming in second to Altair in round 1 turned out to be nothing to be ashamed of (a fact that we didn't know at the time because Altair was a newcomer as well), but the next round when Lucario finished last and LFFed Marth into 3rd place, Altair finished a close second to Duke Nukem. I mean, kudos to Lucario; he provided a strong enough LFF presence to knock Marth out when Marth had finished first in his R1 match. But seriously, this is Duke Nukem we're talking about here. --- RIP GrapefruitKing and Emporer_Kazbar. You will be missed. |
No, he didn't. LMS has no concept of how stats actually work. --- http://img571.imageshack.us/img571/9919/leonhart.png |
...I wonder if Snake's going to catch fire against Alucard with the ASV. That's kind of a scary thing to think about. --- http://i.imgur.com/xiKRQ2F.gif Proud to share the same sig as Chen Kenichi's #1 Fan (also Yoblazer) |
But I wouldn't give Crash more than 35% on Kirby directly, I think. That's pretty good for Wheatley IMO. --- BOP Results: http://www.freewebs.com/charmander6000/CB9%20BOP.xls Points: 85/105 Today's Picks: Kirby and Solid Snake |
Damn you Bayonetta --- Tornadoman78: tornadoman and tornadogirl like to kick box each other in my tornaolayzers and she dosent even mind getting hit |
charmander6000 posted... But I wouldn't give Crash more than 35% on Kirby directly, I think. That's the upper limit of what I'm willing to allow. I dunno if I'd actually give him that much. But yeah, either way, Wheatley looks like he's on the same level of 2010 GlaDOS. --- http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v516/Sensui22/1248835958206.png |
If you assume 2010 Kirby = 2013 Kirby anyway. --- http://gifsoup.com/view/477513/red-vs-blue-road-rage-part-1-o.gif http://gifsoup.com/view/477534/red-vs-blue-road-rage-part-2-o.gif |
LinkMarioSamus posted... Greyfeld posted...Considering the overall strength of western, casual-bait protagonists, I think that doubling Cole gets beat by doubling Niko and beating Protoman. Yes, but his game is a little older, and GTA has a larger following than Infamous. And unlike Cole who got paired up with "Ragna the who, now?", Niko got stuck behind a Mass Effect character and still managed to pull off a decent percentage. --- PSN - Aevio "I'm on a Goomba." - BlackMageJawa |
Niko is arguably the weakest GTA character if you don't take into account RacistFAQs. I'd take Cole to beat Niko albeit barely. |
If Cole = Niko indirectly, GlaDOS doesn't even need LFF to beat Epona. --- http://i.imgur.com/CbfFb.jpg |
tgs2 posted... Niko is arguably the weakest GTA character if you don't take into account RacistFAQs. I'd take Cole to beat Niko albeit barely. So would I, I'm just saying that Glados' performance on Cole isn't really indicative of much, considering Epona didn't do much worse on Niko, with Mordin sucking up votes. --- PSN - Aevio "I'm on a Goomba." - BlackMageJawa |
tgs2 posted... Niko is arguably the weakest GTA character if you don't take into account RacistFAQs. I'd take Cole to beat Niko albeit barely. I know you are talking about CJ but my god Tenpanny was legendary(and yes RacistFAQs on him too) Too bad,he actually was a good character |
LeonhartFour posted... If you assume 2010 Kirby = 2013 Kirby anyway. Rarely is it a good idea to assume that any character is constant. The trick is trying to determine how they've changed. And with 3.5 years since the last contest, there's even more reason for strengths to have changed. --- RIP GrapefruitKing and Emporer_Kazbar. You will be missed. |
There is no way Niko would lose to Cole. Cole is legendarily bad. --- Demyx is better than Axel. http://www.last.fm/user/crazydom |
Dayum, MGS characters should be tested for performance-enhancing drugs after this match. --- The cycle of life and death continues. We will live. And they will die. |
Lara, Kefka and Altair who wins? i honestly don't know where anyone finishes in that match. --- "L-Block 2007 Character Battle Champion"Always remember "L-Block, shaped like a boot to kick your ass" |
I would say next match is in the top 5 list of this contest "hardest to predict" matches And by "hardest to predict" I mean matches when it's impossible to know which character finish first AND last 1.Kefka,Zack,Ryu 2.Epona,Ike,GlaDOS 3.Groose,Lu Bu,Yoshimtsu gap! 4.Tiny Tina,Tharja,Juliet another gap! 5.Catherina,Vaas,Neku Ignoring special upsets like Wrex and round 2 Draven |
Kirby got no chance next round Kirby - 4.36’ Terra - 3.43’ Elizabeth - 2.08’ Crash - 2.06’ Wheatley - 1.78’ Poison - 1.66’ Peach - 1.60’ Thrall - 1.28’ Vercetti - 1.00’ --- http://i498.photobucket.com/albums/rr345/Rakaputra/B8%20Girls%202012/pjbas.png SuperNiceDog - 1, pjbasis - 0 |
im317 posted... Lara, Kefka and Altair who wins? i honestly don't know where anyone finishes in that match. I would like to say Kefka based on round 1 performances but... it's Kefka. You never know --- A refusal of praise is a desire to be praised twice. |
LinkMarioSamus posted... AxemRedRanger posted...Being from pokemon isn't worth much on its own if nobody cares about you. Heck, a certain SOMEONE got into Brawl and then this happened: I think all three would be pretty weak. --- "Divine judgment for an evil soul! Sacred Penance!

Snake
now putting in updates where he's practically doubling 'card/Bayo
combined. I really wish we could have a clean Link/Mario/Samus v Snake
match just to put this Nintendo rSFF thing to bed. He doesn't even get that
much of his strength from Brawl anymore, he's wayyyy stronger than he
was in 2006. Dude lost to a Sephiroth being SFFed by Cloud that year! --- http://i.imgur.com/xiKRQ2F.gif Proud to share the same sig as Chen Kenichi's #1 Fan (also Yoblazer) |
Fayt_Esteed posted... LinkMarioSamus posted...AxemRedRanger posted...Being from pokemon isn't worth much on its own if nobody cares about you. Heck, a certain SOMEONE got into Brawl and then this happened: I wonder how much of Board 8 has even heard of those characters. --- Currently Playing - Super Metroid, MGS4, Brawl, FFVII, Wind Waker, RE4, SOTC |
im317 posted... Lara, Kefka and Altair who wins? i honestly don't know where anyone finishes in that match. I think Kefka's going to take it. Lara Croft and Altair both fall in the "western protagonists" casual-bait category that's been falling off a cliff this contest. Lara will pull second because she has more games and she's overall the more popular character, and Altair will come in last because he's a new-generation character and hasn't had a game in a few years. --- PSN - Aevio "I'm on a Goomba." - BlackMageJawa |
Guru's watch! 119 got GlaDOS 40 got Ike 82 got Epona 1 got Robotnik! (lol) Anyway,yeah the gurus favored Epona..but I believe most of them would change it after Epona round 1 performance? |

uh why --- http://i498.photobucket.com/albums/rr345/Rakaputra/B8%20Girls%202012/pjbas.png SuperNiceDog - 1, pjbasis - 0 |
If anything, everyone is abandoning Ike and Glados to get on Epona's saddle after their Round 1 matches. Which makes no sense; those Round 1 matches didn't really tell us anything. --- "The people who play Final Fantasy 7 actually have lives and dont NEED polls" ~MajinUltima SuperNiceDog: Bracket: Good, Taste: Bad |

He doesn't even get that much of his strength from Brawl anymore, he's wayyyy stronger than he was in 2006. Dude lost to a Sephiroth being SFFed by Cloud that year! Yeah, it's pretty amazing how stubbornly people have been holding onto Snake getting Nintendo sapped because of that Samus match back in 2006, especially considering we've moved past the point where we even think that's what happened. --- http://img.imgcake.com/leonhjpguz.jpg |
pjbasis posted... Nanis23 posted... I..don't know? Maybe because I expected her to be the Zelda version of Missingno and anything less than 60% in the first round I would consider bad? But it's just that I feel...not many people here support her,most notatbly KH by calling her a "horse" every now and then Also her round 1 crew prediction doubted her,but it was agreed that she will win over fodder just because she is from Zelda Of course,Groose and Wrex happened so maybe she really got some strength after all I really don't know and im confusef |
Man, Alucard is just dying now that we're past his awesome morning vote! --- [NO BARKLEY NO PEACE] |
swirIdude posted... If anything, everyone is abandoning Ike and Glados to get on Epona's saddle after their Round 1 matches. I'm guessing that people think Epona looks great for the numbers she put on Mordin after how well the other ME characters faired in round one. Thing is, Mordin is the weakest character from their lineup, so there's no telling exactly where he should have fallen in that match. Not sure going 60-40 on Niko is worth all that much, personally. I think Ike looks like a strong contender for first place after beating Protoman and Robotnik. --- PSN - Aevio "I'm on a Goomba." - BlackMageJawa |
cracked
the top 1000 in expert, not bad considering i picked chalk for the
first 31 matches before i actually started paying attention to it. im up
to 176 from 40 at the start --- "L-Block 2007 Character Battle Champion"Always remember "L-Block, shaped like a boot to kick your ass" |
Looking
closer at the xstats, it's showing Ike over Niko at 64%. Since Epona's
match had her 70-30 over Niko, I'm curious how much of that is
influenced by Mordin, how much is influenced by the lower votals for
this contest, and how much is legitimate strength. --- PSN - Aevio "I'm on a Goomba." - BlackMageJawa |
Not
sure why people are considering Epona a joke character all of a sudden.
While she obviously isn't on Yoshi's level by any stretch of the
imagination, I think her type of appeal is similar. They're the "noble
steeds" that bring back nostalgic memories, and made their debuts in
arguably the most beloved games of their respective series. I'm not saying she's a lock to win. I could see her winning by a decent margin, putting on an unimpressive third-place performance, or anywhere in between. But people certainly aren't just voting for a horse and/or a joke. --- [NO BARKLEY NO PEACE] |
Also,
MGS has seriously been blowing me away all contest. My jaw hit the
floor when The Boss kept it close with Sub-Zero, and this is just as
impressive. Alucard is no joke. --- [NO BARKLEY NO PEACE] |
Nah, Epona and Yoshi aren't really that comparable. --- http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v516/Sensui22/1248835958206.png |
We've also got this: http://www.gamefaqs.com/poll/3246 Marth got 57% on Niko, Ike > Marth, and it's pretty much guaranteed Niko has completely plummeted since. --- [NO BARKLEY NO PEACE] |
The
closer we get the more fearful I am of oats and her power. She's gonna
school Ike and I'm not sure if GlaDOS has the strength to handle that.
The WCC match was definitely not a good omen, and neither was Luigi
coming so close to saying "F***-A you, wahoo!" to Nintendo LFF and
winning anyway. --- Chen Kenichi's #1 Fan (also Yoblazer) http://i.imgur.com/xiKRQ2F.gif |
