The fact that Snake is doing this now, rallies or no rallies, is nothing short of incredible. He doesn't have Link's day vote, and Samus is a much worse anchor than Samus. Draven doesn't really start to fall off until the last 1/4 of the match.

Black Turtle did a pretty good job.

Damn this is getting interesting.

And regardless of who wins, doesn't this match confirm that Snake had a pretty good chance after all of beating Link? Especially considering that the rallies by our users would be more targeted at Snake fans.

Samus muddles the picture though. She would have folded pretty hard to Link. Maybe not this hard but enough to swing Nintendo votes for Link en masse

Turbo-Charged Snake could.

Don't know if he could against Turbo-Charged Link though. That'd be really interesting.


Turbocharged Link wipes the floor with anyone whose strength comes from this site. Even with a 12% anchor and the LAW antivotes he still almost beat Reddit-rallied Draven.

The caveat of course is that Turbocharged Link probably wouldn't happen against someone from this site. In retrospect that's why that match will always be amazing; those specific circumstances are highly unlikely to happen again.

Also definitive proof that it's ok to care about these pointless internet popularity polls: even the VAs and the creators of the respective games are invested in it!


I'm sure we will see someone accuse Hayter and Kojima of being buttdevastated by the end of the day. >__>


And we can take that as the moment any and all criticisms officially jump the shark.

Everyone needs to downvote this thread so that it will fall off the front page, so that the mods would allow a new thread.
They're talking over there about trying to hold our thread in limbo. http://www.gamefaqs.com/boards/8-gamefaqs-contests/67246684?page=21
And deleting their posts, so that we can't see what they're trying to do.

AHAHAHAHA THIS GUY

Can't reiterate this enough. Allen wasn't trying to screw us over, even if we (myself included) didn't like the decisions he made about certain matches.

if the LoL mods will do what's necessary to stop us from manipulating downvotes, they should do the same to him (i.e. leave it there and maybe even artificially keep it up)

I like how people here are so optimistic and happy

How many times we laughed at Draven and got our ass kicked? 4 times,soon to be 5
1 was "lol doubled by Chie"
2 was "see? Draven can't beat Ryu and X! they are totally different level!"
3 was "Link is coming fast! he will take the lead in 1 hour!"
4 was "lollllll reddit delete rally threads!!"

...We are going to lose this,too

Jesus.

Snake is making me regret our bonus poll. Snake vs. Link would be a fantastic match right now...Link's naturally high non-rallied strength and anti-rally powers vs. Turbocharged Snake.

@Luster--too late to do anything now, I suppose?
