is a little too late since it's west coast, usually doesn't get to the
big matches until after this match is going to be over. Lucky is also going to be at Rubicon weakening the field. --- twitch.tv/bonedragons (edited 12/11/2015 6:00:22 PM)report |
People
though the Worlds weren't sure how the Worlds would affect Draven in
the final a couple of years back. That turned out to be pretty
conclusive. But with that said it only became conclusive once they stickied the rally, and this tournament won't have the viewership of the LoL World Championships, so it's not exactly the same thing. --- Such a lust for revenge |
ah..i just checked their stream schedule Melee is on saturday. could still help since it's so close and the community might be a little more active as a result of a tournament having just happened. i'd think part of the melee community also plays other fighting games and keeps up with them |
Yeah
if stuff is actually going on there's the competing force of people
posting stuff actually talking about the tournament which can knock the
rally down the page (that happened to the Starcraft rally). --- I don't know how much you know about women, but Dr. Pizza is an expert. - The Mana Sword |
Oh f*** the salute. If you lose even with that pic, MGS3, I swear to god. |
Man, the salute vs Mario and the Axem Rangers. I really don't know which side has the better pic, they're both super godly. --- Remember when you were young? No longer bearing the mark of Kan. I'm a new man now. |
The
actual in-game salute screen would have been better, especially if it
captured the teardrop, but this isn't far off from that. I'm pissed as
hell at Big Boss and I've been voting for SMRPG non-stop, yet the first
thing I thought upon seeing those pictures is "MGS3's got my vote" --- Goddamn Metal Gear Solid 3 |
I love that 4 people submitted the literal identical MGS3 picture without it being collusion to force it in. Iconic stuff. --- Winner of the Spring 2004 "Best Game Ever" Contest "F*** Draven." -SBAllen |

Oh
wow I expected Undertale to be absolutely destroying Mario after taking
the lead at the beginning. Any reason why it is still 51-49? |

handsomeboy2012 posted... Oh wow I expected Undertale to be absolutely destroying Mario after taking the lead at the beginning. Any reason why it is still 51-49? Lazy Rally Factor. Undertale already had the lead so the people rallying for it aren't trying as hard anymore. As a result, Mario 64 avoids getting destroyed. --- No amount of rallying would let me beat raytan7585. Congrats to raytan7585 for winning the CB9 Guru Contest! |
Mass Effect 3's #2 spot in the X-Stats has been secured. Don't let the Mario SNV sneak up on you, Undertale! --- http://i.imgur.com/3DwCNLJ.gif |
Also,
remember that LTTP/FFVI was the thing that gave us user made pics in
the first place, so it will always have ugly pics if they're not
sprites. --- http://i.imgur.com/3DwCNLJ.gif |
Ocarina's
pictures are just great. Minus that one awkward one from the official
art, weird choice. This one captures OOT perfectly. I'm convinced Mario RPG is untouchable when it comes to pictures. It just dominates every match. --- satoru iwata |
Mario RPG is very photogenic, yeah. Its sprites are excellent. That's the benefit of coming out so late in the SNES's lifespan! That's about as good of a pic as MGS3 could've hoped for though. That's the iconic image of the entire series. --- http://i.imgur.com/3DwCNLJ.gif |
Yeah,
MGS3 has a great pic, too. It's just the mixture of colors and sprites
that make Mario RPG stand out so much. Feel like it's a big nostalgia
rush that makes you wanna vote for it. I'd be surprised if MGS3 wins
here, if only because Mario RPG has ripped through similar competition
and it's way more of a GameFAQs game. Plus, Mario. MARIO. --- satoru iwata |
I
expect the spillover from Tumblr to favor Mario as well. Tumblr seems
to love Nintendo as much as we do, if not moreso, if that's possible. --- http://i.imgur.com/3DwCNLJ.gif |
WhiteLens posted... For what it's worth, Melee has more total votes than Undertale. Why would you need(or want) Viviff? --- www.twitch.tv/Hylian88 www.twitter.com/Hylian88 |
Viviff is a tournament player, so I'm guessing he wants to see if Viviff has any connections. --- http://i.imgur.com/3DwCNLJ.gif |
Man,
I didn't realize how much the vote totals slowed down over the second
half of the match. I guess the rallying dried up for both matches. --- http://i.imgur.com/3DwCNLJ.gif |
He knows that, he's just trying to take the opportunity to score points by trashing him and nursing his fragile ego. Spoilers: neither of them can save Melee from Undertale anyway --- Goddamn Metal Gear Solid 3 |
DaruniaTheGoron posted... Like, the Undertale votals were up early for the Pokemon match and now they are down. Probably ends up close but it just peaked early. The smashboards post alone reached 8k+ people, with almost 3k clicks to the voting link. Some smash pros also retweeted about the competition. It wasn't melees full rally strength, but there was def more than a small reddit thread. --- www.twitch.tv/Hylian88 www.twitter.com/Hylian88 |
LeonhartFour posted... Viviff is a tournament player, so I'm guessing he wants to see if Viviff has any connections. Viviff is not a melee tournament player, he plays smash4. They are not the same scene, and viviff would have pretty much no impact on any sort of melee rally. Karma Hunter posted... He knows that, he's just trying to take the opportunity to score points by trashing him and nursing his fragile ego. I just like to hate on Viviff because he goes around claiming to be a "pro" while living in one of the lowest skilled smash states and not having a single notable result against a well known player, as well has having never placed even remotely well at a national tournament. --- www.twitch.tv/Hylian88 www.twitter.com/Hylian88 |

This is some master class baiting --- satoru iwata |
Hylian88 posted... WhiteLens posted...For what it's worth, Melee has more total votes than Undertale. He said he could use his connections to help Melee if it was up against Undertale, but I guess it would be the same connections that yoi have. --- http://www.backloggery.com/whitelens | http://myanimelist.net/profile/WhiteLens http://na.finalfantasyxiv.com/lodestone/character/5086952/ |
LeonhartFour posted... I expect the spillover from Tumblr to favor Mario as well. Tumblr seems to love Nintendo as much as we do, if not moreso, if that's possible. Animal Crossing will always be that one time where everyone was confused. --- satoru iwata |
Animal Crossing is Nintendo! Their priorities might be different than ours (MM > LTTP, for example), but they very much love Nintendo. --- http://i.imgur.com/3DwCNLJ.gif |
Of course! But it was against Mario World! Mario World! Actually, I guess what Tumblr really brings is the New Nintendo love we don't quite have. We should have rallied for Galaxy. --- satoru iwata |
Most of those Tumblrers weren't even born when Mario World came out! They grew up on 3-D Mario! That being said, I'd still expect them to default to "Mario anything" over MGS3, even if MGS3 is a game that came out within their lifetime. We saw it with FFVIII/Mario World and Sonic 2/Uncharted 2. --- http://i.imgur.com/3DwCNLJ.gif (edited 12/11/2015 7:11:01 PM)report |
random question: what are the strongest characters on this site (rallies excluded) that were created after the 90s |
Hey man the Virtual Console --- satoru iwata (edited 12/11/2015 7:11:23 PM)report |
1337gamerpr0 posted... random question: what are the strongest characters on this site (rallies excluded) that were created after the 90s Auron is probably the strongest. Dante is second. After that, good luck! Dunno if you can count Draven now that you can't rally the subreddit anymore. --- http://i.imgur.com/3DwCNLJ.gif |
Honestly, Tumblr's choice should've won the Zelda match. |
LeonhartFour posted... That being said, I'd still expect them to default to "Mario anything" over MGS3, even if MGS3 is a game that came out within their lifetime. We saw it with FFVIII/Mario World and Sonic 2/Uncharted 2. Same. I think Mario definitely carries more appeal than anything MGS. --- satoru iwata |
ZFS posted... Hey man the Virtual Console Oh, I wouldn't be surprised if they'd played Mario World (or LTTP). It just doesn't mean to them what it means to--as much as I hate to phrase it this way--"our generation" --- http://i.imgur.com/3DwCNLJ.gif |
I mean Big Boss may be the 80s, but he wasn't a character people even knew about in any real way until MGS3. --- satoru iwata |

I didn't feel old until you did this --- satoru iwata |
LeonhartFour posted... 1337gamerpr0 posted...random question: what are the strongest characters on this site (rallies excluded) that were created after the 90s Sora vs. Dante is debatable! --- [NO BARKLEY NO PEACE] |
Next time someone says hey Undertale isn't as bad as Draven just remember Draven didn't bring back ASCII art --- satoru iwata |
Hylian88 posted... Viviff is not a melee tournament player, he plays smash4. They are not the same scene, and viviff would have pretty much no impact on any sort of melee rally. This is wrong. He has run Melee tournaments before. Hylian88 posted... I just like to hate on Viviff because he goes around claiming to be a "pro" while living in one of the lowest skilled smash states and not having a single notable result against a well known player, as well has having never placed even remotely well at a national tournament. I would bet my entire house on Viviff destroying you. --- "I'll admit that I made one or two sarcastic remarks in this topic, but in all serious I akin Undertale to fascism." -ArgaiRonso |
Oh right, I forgot about Sora. So yeah, Auron, Dante, and Sora would be the top 3. Maybe Shepard and Kratos a tier down from them to round out the top 5. --- http://i.imgur.com/3DwCNLJ.gif |
ExThaNemesis posted... I would bet my entire house on Viviff destroying you. Does being worse than Viviff at Melee mean Hylian doesn't know what he's talking about? --- Every day the rest of your life is changed forever. |
I bet my house that all of you Meleedrones won't come within 1000 votes of beating Undertale --- Goddamn Metal Gear Solid 3 |
I have no respect for Kratos's strength after 2013. Would also take Tidus, Yuna, Rikku, GLaDOS, Garrus and Amaterasu over him. ...Probably even The Boss. --- [NO BARKLEY NO PEACE] |
i bet my house none of you are willing to actually bet yours. |
