Spam it on playstation/sony related forum/facebook. Snake is an icon among the sony community.

they aren't falling in line and abandoning Samus like they should be

Snake has literally had updates where he actually cut and where his deficit only increased by 1. In the first hour. Could Snake actually pull this off?

and obviously i'm including the rallying for 'extra factors' there to keep it close but i really wanna know what the reddit traffic looks like for this match afterwards. if Link could 60/40 i wonder if Samus/Snake combined could bring it down where someone else is around the same level or better.

I wouldn't be surprised if Snake easily had the highest percentage of LoL reddit goers defecting to vote for him instead.

Probably helping him out a ton.

Why would Snake be considered Nintendo? He made a guest appearance in Smash, which means Nintendo fans will support him against non-Nintendo stuff, but he's always been Sony first.

it's early in the match and Samus is on her way to being 20%. i think it's a safer bet to say that she's being abandoned for Snake alright. just not enough. Samus is to Snake what Zero was to Mega Man right here.

Draven's first rally under 400 votes against Link was at 1 am. He will most likely dip under 300 within the next update or two. For whatever reason, the rally overall is just weaker than against Link.

Votals are higher overall, but that is probably due to the site-wide banner. The rally is a bit weaker. Also, this seems to lend real support to the fact that Samus is helping dilute the Draven rally.

Well, the rally wasn't deleted until five minutes before the match started, so I'm sure a decent number of LoLers saw it and voted anyway. It's why Draven was in second instead of last to start, I'd imagine.

Draven's votals tanked after the first hour. For 30 minutes after that, Draven was struggling to break 60 votes per update while Mewtwo and seph were scoring mid 100s until the rally was put back up.

Why is the Draven rally so piss poor this time around?

When the thing was posted against Mewtwo he didn't get an update under 400 votes for the longest time. Here's he's already had multiple updates in the 300s.

Considering the streams tomorrow will likely have 50k+ viewers, if the casters so much as mention the Character Battle there will be an enormous spike of votes.

It's possible that there is a high percentage of "backfiring" and people are voting for Snake here instead of Draven.

The rally topic was put up too early

vs Ryu/X - 10 minutes before
vs Link, vs Mewtwo - three hours before
vs Snake/Samus - nine hours before

Basic math is hard so they forget it if it's more than three hours
