It looks like you're gonna need a Tifa boost to get Samus up to Snake 2010 tho. We do honestly have a decent read on Tifa in 2010, her Gordon Freeman match was completely unpolluted.


How so? If we're reading off of that, Snake 2010 gets 70% on Peach (behind Gordon), and if I recall one comment on Tifa/Gordon is that it made Tifa/Peach look fine, which has Samus at 70% on Peach with Tifa at 44% on Samus. Tifa still has a long ways to go (which she will get because lol Samus night vote vs. FFVII) to put Snake 2010 even with this Samus.


...dude.

You're using Female Bracket results.


I'm well aware! Female Bracket results are the only read we have on 1v1 Peach pre-2010, which is what I assume is being used when you try to go 'well we have a read on Tifa because GORDON FREEMAN', who has every reason to do a lot of weird things since his last 1v1 match.

Unless we're estimating Gordon through 4-ways which opens up a whole new can of problems.

It does, but it's far superior to the Female Bracket. Also we had Leon/Gordon/Shadow this year.

Also this argument is kind of academic now!

Tifa has held up SO, SO much better than everyone else from her game save possibly Aeris. Aeris, like Tifa, has normal trends and a fairly strong early vote that indicates she isn't hated and a prime anti-rally target like Cloud/Seph/Vincent. I'd say this definitely makes Shepard's R2 win more respectable.

Also, if we do care enough to try for one more FFVII character, it's gotta be Yuffie. None of this Red XIII puppy dog crap.

So for the sake of argument let's say Sora 2008 = Sora 2006.

Are you arguing Sora beats Vincent?

Agreed. Yuffie really needs to make a contest already.

I don't really like Red XIII but I always got the impression he's more popular than Yuffie/Caith and probably Barret

If you're using the Sora number that's a near-equal to Squall, absolutely. Squall has arguably been stronger than Vincent since KH2, and I've backed it for years now.

Also, again... this doesn't look anywhere near good now!

err wait orange box between 2007 and 2008 wasn't it?

...well Tifa is now clearly stronger than Vincent so uh obviously she was stronger than him in 2008 too.

i think i'm going to decide not to argue samus vs. snake anymore until we have a set-up where they can have a no excuses match.

no LEAGUE OF DRAVEN/snake/samus doesn't count.
