Neat little effort, but this looks like a wrap. Good job, Snake, but you're not on that level yet, even with Hayter Hype.

If Snake can hold tough through the power hour... well, he can't win but he can do really respectably!

Excellent choice for a bonus poll. Sigh. Should've been Link vs Snake vs Samus. I'm not sure why people thought Link would be vulnerable to Snake in a 1-on-1.

I wasn't even on the leaderboard before. How did this many people not pick Draven to win the final, after they saw how he performed before and made enough smart picks to get on the leaderboard at all?

Nice, ending on a leaderboard.
I guess it was a good thing I decided to have my main and my alt have different picks for 2nd and 3rd, otherwise Yoblazer wouldn't have made it on.

Link would erase them from existence with SFF and Snake wouldn't have a big bandwagon if there was no Draven.

Gah. Snake cuts Link's percentage.


But Link's overall lead is increasing, if barely.


Won't we expect Link to gain through Power Hour and then Snake make cuts/take led until morning vote hits? The day vote is gonna be brutal to Snake unless he gets some rallies.

Also +45. Good to see Link still has it!

Link's probably good for increasing his percentage about 3% from 8 AM to the end. He'll rise in the power hour some more then fall with the first night vote. 55% looks fairly tough at this point, though it's early.

I know Link's gonna end up with between 53 and 54% here, but this should solidly prove that Snake is our current overall #2. He's achieving former Cloud levels and Cloud has apparently dropped a fair bit.

I couldn't care less about this match, but if Link wins, he earned it. Snake is turbocharged and he isn't.

Also wow ended 37th... would have been 11th if I hadn't forgotten to make a pick on Draven/Mewtwo/Seph, which probably would have netted me a decent amount of karma given my non-prize entry f*** up

C'mon, Snake, get in a good cut during the Power Hour. Even if you can't win you gotta do your best. Give some hope for more 1v1s and the possibility of threatening Link even more post-MGSV.
