A much bigger rise. Bets on whether Draven cracks a lead of 100 before the power hour ends?

This might stabilize soon... or Draven will begin to rise... really gonna be sad if Draven is held under 50% here. That means he was beatable in a 1v1 >_>

The Draven rally is currently on the second page of r/all, which probably explains why Link is getting a lot of votes from this rally.


Can you please give me a link to that page or something >_>

Link's still down 440 votes fifteen minutes in. Not a good position if Draven keeps rising. Link won't be keeping up this momentum either.

Also, 5k votes in fifteen minutes.

I love a 100 vote increase being called "holding the line". This is great.

You've gotta hand it to Link, he really is holding up great here.

Also, Shepard has a surprisingly successful rally going on himself! Nothing nearly as big as Draven, but still better than most other Reddit rally attempts.

People are saying Link can't sustain this?

If anyone will run out of votes, it will be Draven, IMO.

Also again DAMNIT SHEPARD. Link would so have a great shot if this were 1v1.

Obviously it's near impossible for Link to withstand this, because Draven's rally against X/Ryu was completely endless in nature. Link will eventually run out of gas here unfortunately, but it's certainly a noble effort from our hero.

If Draven finishes sub 50%, is there any doubt that the post-round bonus poll needs to be Draven v Link 1v1?

Or even better, DRAVEN v SHEPARD!

Well to be fair, we expected him to be WAY farther behind. If he really is getting helped by the rally then there's a good chance he can at least keep it respectable

this is actually looking like a regular, non-rallied match.
