I
could almost buy Vivi beating Squall, but I don't think he beats Red
while being held down by Squall. He needs another rally or he's screwed. --- Black Turtle did a pretty good job. |
no actually, Vivi took Mario's spot and Squall took Missingno's spot that the glitch took from Crono in 2010 :P Actually Sephiroth took Missingno's spot since he lost it to Kirby in 2008. --- BOP Results: http://www.freewebs.com/charmander6000/CB9%20BOP.xls Points: 107/147 Today's Picks: Squall and Cecil |
Vivi
could beat Squall if he gets a bandwagon behind him, but the problem is
that Squall won't fold to Vivi, and Vivi won't fold to Squall if he's
getting bandwagoned. So yeah, they doom each other unless people stop caring about Vivi beating Mario next round, which probably won't happen. --- http://i.imgur.com/kCpvD.gif |
Red
is going to maul that match and could potentially make the FINALS if
Mega Man has what it takes to outlast zard. I can see Samus/Red/Mega Man
tipping in the Trainer's favor. --- Chen Kenichi's #1 Fan (also Yoblazer) http://i.imgur.com/a4GuDV3.gif |
Only way Mega Man beats Charizard is if Rikku beats Zero --- BOP Results: http://www.freewebs.com/charmander6000/CB9%20BOP.xls Points: 107/147 Today's Picks: Squall and Cecil |
Don't see any way the Zard drops the match now unless Rikku scores the crazy upset. --- http://gifsoup.com/view/874243/big-boss-o.gif |
Augh, if Tidus had won, we get Squall/Tidus/Ammy Vivi/Ammy/Red Vivi could've done that. Missingno seriously messed up everything. He won when he shouldn't have and lost when he shouldn't have. --- Black Turtle did a pretty good job. |
Unlike Pikachu and Blue,I believe Charizard can SFF Red to the ground..even beneath it! Really,it will get the point that if Red finish with 10% I will consider it overperformance and wonder for hours who the hell would vote for Red over Charizard |
Or Squall could've destroyed Tidus with SFF like he has in the past and wins anyway...! --- http://i848.photobucket.com/albums/ab48/Leonhart4/Squall.jpg |

That's another good point. Now I regret Missingno beating Tidus! The worst part is that if Missingno had won the last match, we could've had Tidus > Squall. At least we still have Tidus > Crono. --- Current Let's Play: Final Fantasy II - http://forums.somethingawful.com/showthread.php?threadid=3557012 Previous: http://lparchive.org/author/mega64 |
But
Red would have had no Nintendo character holding him back. I think he's
going to embarrass both Square guys next round. And yes, Mega Man's
only good shot lies in Zero flubbing, but after what we've seen this
past week, I don't find the possibility all that crazy. --- Chen Kenichi's #1 Fan (also Yoblazer) http://i.imgur.com/a4GuDV3.gif |

I seriously think Charizard got enough strength to compete with Mega Man 1vs1 Yeah I know it's crazy..but...we will see I guess |
Let's
not overrate what Red is doing here. It's a great performance, but I'm
pretty sure Vivi 'beat freaking Mario' Ornitier could do this to Wrex
and Wario if he really wanted to. --- Black Turtle did a pretty good job. |
It's
sort of a Catch-22 though. If Zero has fallen far enough that he could
lose to Rikku (who is basically on the same level as Tidus and Yuna),
that doesn't say good things about Mega Man as a franchise. --- http://i.imgur.com/kCpvD.gif |

There may be a chance the Cube might get rallied over Zero and Rikku. Unlikely, but feasible. The Cube might actually save Mega Man if it wins its match, hilariously enough. --- Current Let's Play: Final Fantasy II - http://forums.somethingawful.com/showthread.php?threadid=3557012 Previous: http://lparchive.org/author/mega64 |
If
Charizard's result against Mario is legit (a notion that seems more and
more plausible as time goes on), then he's likely as Mega Man normally.
Zero doesn't even need to be there. --- Black Turtle did a pretty good job. |
Man,
I like how this contest is set to ruin the one good thing it had going
for it and then some by having Red beat Squall + Vivi next round. MissingNo I hate you --- No problem! This is a cute and pop genocide of love! |
Yeah, Charizard has a chance to beat Mega Man straight up. It just becomes a guarantee if Zero's there, basically. --- "I can set you free, mate." "My freedom was forfeit long ago!" |

no Sephiroth took Vincent's spot, I was the one who started this stupid thing :P I forgot Crono took L-Block's spot and not Vincent's --- BOP Results: http://www.freewebs.com/charmander6000/CB9%20BOP.xls Points: 107/147 Today's Picks: Squall and Cecil |
Squall beating Red would be good damage control but Vivi is supposed to be the miracle story dammit --- No problem! This is a cute and pop genocide of love! |
Vivi already had his miracle story. Beating Mario is a miracle in and of itself. Squall getting to the finals would cement his place as the new strongest FF character. It's about validation...! --- http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v516/Sensui22/1248835958206.png |
L Block/Vivi/Charizard Samus/Vivi/Charizard Vivi can do it! --- ~ The Dilated One IX: Link-VV-BB-SS-Cloud-Sora-Samus-Mario-Zard |
I'm
gonna burst Leon's bubble a tad and say that I don't think Squall's
performances have been too great this year. I don't think he's dropped a
ton or anything, but so far he's -Got 71% on Rayman, when Rayman looked ABYSMAL the other times he was in -Got 52% on a Missingno that was one stuffer away from losing to Tidus -Got 61% on an Ammy that was a completely irrelevant option in the poll The third option specifically is sort of worrying - that's what Luigi did despite reasons for Ammy to underperform, and Squall has every reason to be a good bit stronger than Luigi based on previous result. He still looks strong, but not quite as strong as the past. Doesn't help that these all took place in night matches, which favor him heavily. --- Black Turtle did a pretty good job. |
If
everyone rally for Vivi and let Squall dies and that Vivi has another
rally , it might happen but I doubt it will happen. Red won't be an easy
opponent either. |
KamikazePotato posted... -Got 61% on an Ammy that was a completely irrelevant option in the poll Sorry, you don't get to argue Ammy got LPF'd when she got 25% of the vote. Also Ammy's probably stronger now than she was in 2010 due to MvC3. --- http://i43.tinypic.com/dgwh0.gif http://www.majhost.com/gallery/atukam/OHWD/snownd.gif |
Rayman
also has had tons of reasons to be better than he was last time. He
didn't even have Origins the only other time he was in the contest. --- "Why must we always choose between certain death and probable death?" "I'm in an epic battle to the death, FIGURE IT OUT YOURSELF!" |
Vivi/Squall/Red is like Lightning/DK/Falco Hopefully. --- ~ The Dilated One IX: Link-VV-BB-SS-Cloud-Sora-Samus-Mario-Zard |
Just
because a character doesn't completely die doesn't mean they don't
underperform. Close rally matches almost always make other options
suffer, at least a little bit. And Rayman does have reasons to improve,
but yeah. I'm not saying that Squall looks a lot weaker, just not quite
as impressive as he's been in the past. Even just based on their Round 1
matches, he looks pretty close to Vivi (which isn't bad because Vivi is
clearly on roids this year). --- Black Turtle did a pretty good job. |
There
wasn't even that much rallying. Missingno started strong. Then Squall
just caught up, stormed past him, and never looked back. There was no
back and forth, no stalling, no nothing. Ammy's fine. --- http://images.cheezburger.com/completestore/2011/8/22/2094c2de-bae8-4f5b-9f27-67eaff0aaeaf.jpg |
Not
that impressed by Squall's performance to be honest, i think he has a
good chance of being in last place in the next round, especially if
4chan decides to give Vivi yet another push. --- Zinsanity of the Helix Board |
Fine, you guys can keep doubting Squall if you want. Doesn't bother me! --- http://i.imgur.com/M7vKB.gif |
I haven't been here but I want to say to all the Mario > Sephiroth nerds... Bwahahahahahaha --- Die young and save yourself. Brace for the G's, and fast heel-toe work. |
I
think you're misinterpreting what I'm saying - I'm talking about Squall
being a little weaker. That's it! That would honestly be what I
would've expected given how the rest of the contest has went - Squall is
an unholy fusion of FF7-era Square and Kingdom Hearts, and both of them
get weaker as time goes on. I'm surprised he isn't worse off, really --- Black Turtle did a pretty good job. |
ExThaNemesis posted... I haven't been here but I want to say to all the Mario > Sephiroth nerds... Make sure you show back up when Sephy gets last place in a few days, bro...! --- http://i.imgur.com/eqOQs.gif |
It's even funnier once you realize that even yesterday's Mario could beat Sephiroth! --- Current Let's Play: Final Fantasy II - http://forums.somethingawful.com/showthread.php?threadid=3557012 Previous: http://lparchive.org/author/mega64 |

The_Djoker posted... Missing no losing has probably been the best result of this contest so far. These joke characters got old. Salt like yours is what makes these contests magical. Thank you. --- GameFAQs isn't going to be merged in with GameSpot or any other site. We're not going to strip out the soul of the site. -CJayC |
Switch Ganondorf and Wario's position in the bracket. --- ~ The Dilated One IX: Link-VV-BB-SS-Cloud-Sora-Samus-Mario-Zard |
We just get the same result a round later, with Squall beating Mario and Ganon instead of Vivi. Which is cool with me! --- http://i43.tinypic.com/dgwh0.gif http://www.majhost.com/gallery/atukam/OHWD/snownd.gif |
Quick list of how MvsC3-characters have don, minus the Street Fighters: --> Phoenix Wright beat Marth and Vincent (haw haw) --> Frank West was quadrupled by Garrus --> Morrigan beat Miles and Spyro --> Viewtiful Joe edged out Handsome Jack --> Dante lost hard to Squirtle, but beat Zidane and doubled Laharl --> Wesker beat Oliver despite Leon --> Leon beat Gordon with space to spare --> Amaterasu easily tripled Vyse before she got 39% on Squall --> Mike Haggar beat Red Bird Not a bad run for the game. Ammy looking better than before isn't a shocker. --- T H E S T A B L E - bring on Epona! http://img812.imageshack.us/img812/3492/eponaharr.jpg |
I
agree that it would make sense for Squall to be weaker and that's
honestly what I would have expected, but I don't think that's really
what his poll results indicate. How Rayman did back in the Rabbid era is
completely irrelevant to how strong he is now and Squall looked fine
against an Amaterasu who might even have boosted a little from MvC3.
Meanwhile, Missingno. is weird and probably not transitive; it made
Crono, Yoshi, and Sephiroth look stupidly close together in 2010 too.
And if you think Missingno.'s strength has a lot to do with Pokemon
rather than JUST being a joke, he would have been vulnerable to Banjo
LFF. And while there was definitely spillover effect from the previous match, I don't think there was all that much rallying; or at least, not any from a single, easily identifiable place. None of Missingno.'s reddit threads really took off, though I made sure to downvote them; Luster made several! /v/ rallies didn't seem to do much better. --- [NO BARKLEY NO PEACE] |
Guys guys it's time for the most important question of the day forget about the Pokecontest for a sec SOLID SNAKE VERSUS MARIO predict the percentages imho --- http://i.imgur.com/xiKRQ2F.gif Proud to share the same sig as Chen Kenichi's #1 Fan (also Yoblazer) |
HaRRicH posted... Quick list of how MvsC3-characters have don, minus the Street Fighters: Leon? He wasn't in that game though. --- Zinsanity of the Helix Board |
Zero is in MvsC3 too no? Anyway,im glad we finally have a normal match at last (although the start was kinda scary) And hopefully next match is going to be a normal match too...but who knows,maybe Jill can surprise |
Snake
wins 57/43 over Mario, flipping the 2005 results. I realize this may
be undershooting Snake but I'll be conservative for now. --- Congratulations to SuperNiceDog, Guru Winner, who was smart enough to pick your 7 time champion, Link. |
