No wonder Teedus needed 2:1 vote stuffing to keep it close with Missingno.! If I only consulted the Gossip Stones like BKSheikah, instead of listening to Tingle, maybe I could have been the 2017 Guru Champ! |
BetrayedTangy posted... Unless DK's boost comes from Nintendo being in the upswing. In which case Noctis is about to get Noct-out Or DK was already this strong in CBIX This is actually good news for Sonic if DK is actually noticeably stronger now as a result of DKC Returns |
Hell yeah, DK! Dilated Chemist |
Dang it Teedus oh well just gonna swing this as confirming Waluigi > Aeris "Those who cast the vote decide nothing. Those who count the vote decide everything." |
KanzarisKelshen posted... BetrayedTangy posted...Unless DK's boost comes from Nintendo being in the upswing. In which case Noctis is about to get Noct-out It has nothing to do with the Switch - it is not a successful system. It's just that the demographics of this site show that people who were big on Final Fantasy have mostly left the site. We saw this last contest. We've seen it since 2005.That means Nintendo comparatively appears stronger Obviously, Squall has a 0% chance against Zelda |
Leonhart4 posted... BetrayedTangy posted...Unless DK's boost comes from Nintendo being in the upswing. In which case Noctis is about to get Noct-out Nobody cares anymore about DKC Returns. DK is not some powerhouse. This is all Final Fantasy crashing and you know it. Don't make excuses. Don't be a spin doctor. I don't like it either, I enjoy FF games characters but I've accepted it. |

In which case Noctis is about to get Noct-out It's not trailing far behind the Wii in units sold, what makes you think it's not successful? Shine on, you crazy diamond.

The Switch is very successful. Dilated Chemist |
Square waning and Nintendos on the rise. I'll never enjoy these contests as much as when Square was competitive. All things must change. Donkey Kong is a terrible character. |

Vivi and Lightning just both did really good Does Tidus equal all of Square now Black Turtle did a pretty good job. |
KamikazePotato posted... Vivi and Lightning just both did really good Vivi and Lightning beat horrible fodder? wow!!!!!!! |
Lightning vs Tidus, who wins? Dilated Chemist |
_REDDIT_ posted... KamikazePotato posted...Vivi and Lightning just both did really good Yu isn't fodder, he's a low midcarder (or really really close to that mark). Shine on, you crazy diamond. |

The
only contest history Yu has is getting 32% in a 3-way with Shadow and
Kat from Gravity Daze with Shadow almost getting 50%. I dunno what that
means for his strength given Shadow’s mixed reception and Kat is uh well
obviously super fodder. Jesus Shadow’s contest history is pretty
terrible too. At least he got 45% on Mario once upon a time, but
otherwise yikes |
Wow,
Tidus is getting rekt. Good thing I switched to Leon for winning Round 2
against Tidus, but now I'm not even sure if Leon would win against DK.
If he does, I highly doubt he will get past Vivi. Ugh I let this board
influence my bracket too much. My original version had all Nintendo
dominance. Now Playing (and for the next 50 years): Path of Exile! Win 10 Pro | Vive Pro | PS4 Pro | The only Pro platforms for Pro gamers. |

Pretty sure leon would win regardless if its DK or teedus -~get rich or drunk trying ~- |
Shadows a low mid carder and he destroyed Yu in 2013 and that's being generous to Shadow. My Quest to beat the Final Fantasies: I II III IV V VI VII VIII IX X XII XIII XV |
I wouldn't know who to pick between Aya Who and Victor Whatshisface without the board's help. |
Yesterday: 50/50 states had Ganondorf and Lightning winning. 49/50 states voted for Dante. North Dakota voted for Cuphead. 39/50 states voted for Chun Li. 11 states had Spyro (AK-ID-KS-ME-MO-NE-NH-ND-RI-SD-TN). A couple states were 50/50 but colored for Spyro, so I counted them for him. Congrats to BKSheikah, the new Guru champ! Not that I'm bitter or anything... (edited 10/19/2018 7:17:41 PM) |
A
small part of me wishes I kept the DK > Leon upset I originally had.
I don't think Tidus is that weak, but I do think the "double voting"
will help Nintendo a long ways. Yoblazer https://imgur.com/gByqgPg |

Aya/Sully
is the kind of match where Sully would win almost everywhere that isn’t
here most likely. She’s had basically nothing after the first two PS1
games other than a PSP game people didn’t even seem to care for while
Sully has the Uncharted games and is well liked. I mean most people
these days are probably at least aware that he’s “that old guy in
Uncharted” while most people would probably not even know who in the
world Aya is |
"It has nothing to do with the Switch - it is not a successful system" definitely the best take I read all contest season so far Communists |
https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/poll/5239-character-battle-ix-division-5-round-2-shadow-vs-leon-vs Shadow isn't that weak. We actually have a direct Leon/Yu comparison through Shadow that year, and through that we get: Leon Kennedy68.10% Yu Narukami31.90% This is a great result for Vivi no way you slice it. Black Turtle did a pretty good job. |
And
yeah Lightning blowing the doors off of Chloe Price, even if she's
going to be one of the weakest characters in the bracket, implies that
Lightning isn't as weak as we thought, which means DK beating her means
DK is better than we thought too Black Turtle did a pretty good job. |
CaptainOfCrush posted... A small part of me wishes I kept the DK > Leon upset I originally had. I don't think Tidus is that weak, but I do think the "double voting" will help Nintendo a long ways. It's hard for me to envision DK actually taking down Leon, especially when you consider that Mister Kennedy has some Nintendo ties due to RE4 originally being a Cube exclusive during a drought in the Cube's lifespan, but weirder things have happened. Agent Triple Zero at your service! This line reserved for the true greatone, the 2018 Guru Contest winner. |

The only impressive thing Persona has ever done was destroy Turbofodder 999 in 2015 My Quest to beat the Final Fantasies: I II III IV V VI VII VIII IX X XII XIII XV |
Isn’t
Gordon Freeman kinda weak though? I feel like people always say “Gordon
Freeman Never Wins” or am i confusing him with somebody else? |

In which case Noctis is about to get Noct-out https://www.reactiongifs.us/wp-content/uploads/2014/07/lol_vladimir_putin.gif Character Battle X Current Score: 4/4 How do Yu prove that Yu exist? |
GFNW is a meme that was broken literally 12 years ago. Gordon is pretty good nowadays. Black Turtle did a pretty good job. |
Dkc and SNES definitely looked to be in an upswing in the last games contest Might be more than just 'lol square sucks now' Started from the bottom now we here |
A+, North Dakota. Tidus, come on bro. Use Haste and Quick Hit -- USE HASTE AND QUICK HIT ALREADY. This match by itself doesn't worry me much for Nintendo right away...but another two or three like this and that will start a legit wave of Nintendo fear. I am counting on this topic for some serious 800 BANANA ACTIVATE if Tidus makes some cuts tonight. Nominate METAL MAN for 20XX! https://imgur.com/Dr4NAeq |
Kleenex’s Prediction: Tidus with 66% This aged well -~get rich or drunk trying ~- |

HaRRicH posted... A+, North Dakota. Not just Nintendo fear ...POKEFEAR -~get rich or drunk trying ~- |
Am I the only one who has Master Hand > Noctis? My bracket is perfect btw. I took DK over Tidus and never looked back. My Oracle prediction was DK with 55% so yeah, I'm good. Better than most people here. |
_REDDIT_ posted... Am I the only one who has Master Hand > Noctis? Hand vs. Noctis has been one of the more debated Round 1 matches, because who could forget Hand > Kufa as one of the most striking first round upsets ever? Agent Triple Zero at your service! This line reserved for the true greatone, the 2018 Guru Contest winner. |
I took Master Hand > Noctis without hesitation |

Sora vs Red - do you still got who ya got 2 days ago Yoblazer https://imgur.com/gByqgPg |
_REDDIT_ posted... Am I the only one who has Master Hand > Noctis? Let us all bow down to the only guy with a perfect bracket two days into the contest. He's clearly better than all of us. "undertale hangs out with mido" - ZFS Not changing this sig until CM Punk returns to the WWE |
CaptainOfCrush posted... Sora vs Red - do you still got who ya got 2 days ago Yeah. I don't think Tidus is a proxy for all Square nor is DK a proxy for all Nintendo. I want to wait to get a look at the Pokemon characters before I derive anything for that match. "undertale hangs out with mido" - ZFS Not changing this sig until CM Punk returns to the WWE |
CaptainOfCrush posted... Sora vs Red - do you still got who ya got 2 days ago I'll still back Sora, but if Red wants to lose to Kefka, it won't hurt me that much. Agent Triple Zero at your service! This line reserved for the true greatone, the 2018 Guru Contest winner. |
CaptainOfCrush posted... Sora vs Red - do you still got who ya got 2 days ago No I changed my bracket this morning -~get rich or drunk trying ~- |
Persona 4 in the 2015 Games Contest was much stronger than it was in the 2010 Games Contest. Black Turtle did a pretty good job. |
I feel pretty good about my Leon > Vivi pick now. Dilated Chemist |
I
dont think all this means Square ducks. But I don't trust midcarder FF
in any debatable match. Like Cecil is about to get his ass handed to him
