Contest Stats and Discussion - Part 1260 - The Coronation, Plus Grudge Matches!
I mean who has the bigger rally potential between Melee and Pokemon --- http://i.imgur.com/3DwCNLJ.gif What DpOblivion did to me in the Guru Contest, in GIF form |
In
the URLs for today's matches, I have tried replaced "r7" with either
"r8" or "bonus", but nothing is showing up. Maybe Allen is reusing
round 1 pictures for these bonus matches. --- Luster Soldier --- ~Shield Bearer~ | ~Data Analyst~ Popular at school, but not as cool as DpObliVion, Guru Champ! |
That'd be hard to gauge going by CT considering Pokemon's base strength should be a *lot* better than Melee's. --- Welcome to the League of Antivotes. |
Also,
I kinda suspect those registered user votes overrate CT by a good bit.
It's easily #1 for registered users between these, that recent list, and
the noms, but I don't expect it to be as dominant once unregistered
voters are factored in, even without rallies. Though it's been in god mode this contest anyway so it probably would still beat FF7 and OoT, it'd just be pretty close. --- Not_Wylvane |

So
what records did Undertale break in the contest? The only 2 for sure
are biggest comeback ever and having a higher percentage victory in the
final match than any of the previous matches! --- Why do we exist?What happens when we stop existing? 124 Gurus were better than me in BGE 2015 contest! But the best of all was DpObliVion! Congrats! |

Yeah, I know, but I can't really think of an interesting opponent for CT if it's not FFVII or OoT. --- http://i.imgur.com/3DwCNLJ.gif What DpOblivion did to me in the Guru Contest, in GIF form |

Pokemon vs MGS was a solid 75-25 stomp. --- Warning: I am a satirical person and don't care for other's sensitivities. If you have a problem with this, please block me and go away. |
Safer_777 posted... having a higher percentage victory in the final match than any of the previous matches! Hate to break it to you, but Undertale might not even be top 3 by the time this match is over in terms of highest percentage in the finals. --- http://i.imgur.com/3DwCNLJ.gif What DpOblivion did to me in the Guru Contest, in GIF form |

Plenty of people think it can win. Even red sox thinks it's got a chance! CT/RBY is okay in a vacuum but RBY rallying is just gonna kill whatever 1% chance FFVII would have to compete with OoT with spillover. --- Welcome to the League of Antivotes. |

LeonhartFour posted... Safer_777 posted...having a higher percentage victory in the final match than any of the previous matches! I think what this is trying to say is that it's somehow a record that you have your biggest win in the finals. --- xp1337: Don't you wish there was a spell-checker that told you when you a word out? |
I'd rather see FF7 face Super Mario 64 or RBY or even LttP myself. Those could probably give FF7 a good match. I think we'd all want to see CT/OoT. --- Not_Wylvane |
What
I mean is that in the earlier rounds it won with a less percentage that
it wins now. I mean the highest was with Fallout 3 and it was around
55% and now it seems it will finish with around 57. I don't think any
other winner has done that. --- Why do we exist?What happens when we stop existing? 124 Gurus were better than me in BGE 2015 contest! But the best of all was DpObliVion! Congrats! |
Oh, I guess. That's an odd record to want to keep track of. --- http://i.imgur.com/3DwCNLJ.gif What DpOblivion did to me in the Guru Contest, in GIF form |

that was the semifinals of the entire contest and there are literally two Pokemon in the same match literally every semifinal match had at least one Pokemon character in it that should give you an idea --- http://i.imgur.com/3DwCNLJ.gif What DpOblivion did to me in the Guru Contest, in GIF form |
Vayu_The_End posted... Not_Wylvane posted...LeonhartFour posted...http://www.gamefaqs.com/poll/5263-character-battle-ix-final-nine-solid-snake-vs-squirtle-vs It wasn't too surprising, but it was still impressive considering how freaking dominant Pokemon was that contest. Pikachu beat Crono and later Sora despite LFF, Squirtle beat Cloud, Mewtwo beat Sonic and Sephiroth and put up a decent fight against Draven, Red took advantage of FF LFF to make it far, and Charizard, uh, well, he showed up! --- Not_Wylvane (edited 12/15/2015 4:21:21 PM)report |
Mega Man just barely saved us from having over half the final 9 being Pokemon characters --- http://i.imgur.com/3DwCNLJ.gif What DpOblivion did to me in the Guru Contest, in GIF form |
I will never understand why Charizard sucked so much in 2013 but I'm okay with it --- Welcome to the League of Antivotes. |
LeonhartFour posted...
In a contest where our top is not far off from our elite we're gonna say Mario World or 64 or LTTP are not interesting opponents for CT. You have all sipped the Red Sox Kool Aid I would suggest --- satoru iwata |
LeonhartFour posted... Mega Man just barely saved us from having over half the final 9 being Pokemon characters Nailing Mega Man > Charizard is still probably my favorite upset pick and, combined with Pikachu > Sora, helped get me in the top 5 of the Guru that year. People overestimated the f*** out of a character that was around the level of Kratos because of one good run. --- Not_Wylvane |
He
bandwagoned in 2010 somehow, I'd guess. He had very low prediction
percentages to win his matches. HS/SS came out on the day of
Charizard/Bowser, too, if I remember right. He got 55% on Kratos for crying out loud Charizard couldn't have been that strong --- http://i.imgur.com/3DwCNLJ.gif What DpOblivion did to me in the Guru Contest, in GIF form |

You have all sipped the Red Sox Kool Aid I would suggest I mean if you want to throw them up against Chrono Trigger, I won't stop you but quick FFX vs. FFIV who wins FFX vs. FFVIII who wins FFX vs. FFT who wins --- http://i.imgur.com/3DwCNLJ.gif What DpOblivion did to me in the Guru Contest, in GIF form (edited 12/15/2015 4:24:13 PM)report |
I have bad news for you about FFX Leon --- satoru iwata |
It's only as strong as Melee, I know It's awful news but I've accepted it --- http://i.imgur.com/3DwCNLJ.gif What DpOblivion did to me in the Guru Contest, in GIF form |
Charizard did well in 2013 if you take his Charizard/Kratos number instead of Mario/Charizard. --- BGE3: Today's Matches LoZ: OoT > SM64 Points 243/384 |
I can conceive of weird bizarre realities where FFX is below FFIV and FFT. ...but not FFVIII under any circumstances, sorry Mario World you suck. --- Welcome to the League of Antivotes. |
i am actually legitimately impressed you guys can keep debating the stats i mean uh... ffx wins all those matches unless ffviii unleashes its rally --- xp1337: Don't you wish there was a spell-checker that told you when you a word out? |
xp1337 posted... i am actually legitimately impressed you guys can keep debating the stats My hand is on the button at all times. --- http://i.imgur.com/3DwCNLJ.gif What DpOblivion did to me in the Guru Contest, in GIF form |
As for the grudge matches I predict Ocarina of Time/Final Fantasy VII Super Mario Bros. 3/Pokemon RBYG Super Mario World/Super Mario 64 Chrono Trigger/Link to the Past --- BGE3: Today's Matches LoZ: OoT > SM64 Points 243/384 |
ZFS posted... LeonhartFour posted... I had nothing to do with this! I've been the voice of reason on CT ever since that FFX match! --- September 1, 2003; November 4, 2007; September 2, 2013 NEVER FORGET. |
Eh, let's not do a Mario 3 vs. R/B/Y rematch, please. --- http://i.imgur.com/3DwCNLJ.gif What DpOblivion did to me in the Guru Contest, in GIF form |
So are well all just that confident in FF10 over MM --- satoru iwata |
I'm confident Majora wouldn't win with 65% at least! --- http://i.imgur.com/3DwCNLJ.gif What DpOblivion did to me in the Guru Contest, in GIF form |
ZFS posted... So are well all just that confident in FF10 over MM FFX can be well, well, well below Majora's Mask and CT can still scorch LttP. --- Welcome to the League of Antivotes. |
xp1337 posted... i am actually legitimately impressed you guys can keep debating the stats Calling Charizard being overrated was the one good call I've made in 13 years of these damn contests, I'm gonna be smug about it until the site or I dies because that's all I've got! 2013 was also the only time I actually spent a lot of time looking up past matches and stuff for my bracket, and it worked out great for me. On the flip-side, I barely paid any attention to my bracket for this contest and did my early 00's strategy of "make a couple of ridiculous longshot picks based on favoritism" and somehow I did terrible! --- Not_Wylvane |
Karma Hunter posted... and CT can still scorch LttP. Oh man Allen please do it run this match --- satoru iwata |
charmander6000 posted... As for the grudge matches I predict Pretty good list, although I have a hard time believing that we will get a re-run of Mario 3/RBY. --- Luster Soldier --- ~Shield Bearer~ | ~Data Analyst~ Popular at school, but not as cool as DpObliVion, Guru Champ! |
I literally don't think CT will win a CT/LttP showdown, though it should be close. But FFX/MM isn't the comparison to make there! FFX = MM right now means CT just crushes LttP. --- Welcome to the League of Antivotes. |
