Contest Stats and Discussion - Part 1141

It might have history, but I just don't think Crono is good enough anymore to go toe to toe with Mario and X is likely a lock for 3rd place. I could be wrong, but I honestly think it'll be as boring as Chester/Caim/Dancin

Mario/Crono V happening is kind of awesome.

It's a little sad, though. It's a symbol of the "old" contests, when things were simpler and a bit more isolated. The Mario/Crono rivalry is almost a relic. Then, in the next match, we get the ultimate powerhouse of these contests going down to a reddit rally - and that is what these contests are now.


You say that like it's a bad thing.

We'll never know for sure if we don't run it

more importantly comparing it to Chester/Caim/Dancin' okay I know when to stop paying attention

There should be some pro-Nintendo spillover from the rallying in this match, though nothing too crazy I imagine.


I don't know about that, because all 3 characters in this match are Nintendo.

Well my favourite contest is 2006 so

I don't necessarily dislike this contest, though. Lot of great matches. Draven's first match was wonderful, even if his second was kind of an "oh" moment

Honestly though, I expect Charizard to win the next update. Zelda just put things on RED ALERT hard to imagine Charizard doesn't respond.

also it'd be too much to ask for drama on the final update

I'd take MMX as well, but I've always considered him Noble 9 tier.


Same here. More specifically, I've always felt like X was the stronger Mega Man. In fact, it wouldn't surprise me if Mega Man experienced a drop in strength after X was first allowed into the contest because he was using the combined strength of both until that point.

Technically, this is Mario/Crono VI. Mario/Crono happened in 2002, 2003, 2004, and 2005 prior to the 4-way era. Then it happened in 2008, which was unfair to Mario since Link and Samus were in that match. So this is the 6th time these 2 characters go up against each other.

A cut of 10 to put it at 10 would have been ideal. But 19? Hard to envision a scenario where Zelda can out-spike Charizard by enough.

Well, it's certainly possible. They've both had cuts larger than that just in the past hour or so. Could go either way.

Presumably the Charizard rally is on full alert. Can't see Zelda pulling something crazy out again.

Charizard has to drop the ball for Zelda to win IMO.
