I think the bigger shock is that Master Hand is pulling away by huge amounts here.


M-Melee rally!?


The Melee dudes would probably rally Fox tbh, but it's not gonna happen because their main source of rallying (r/smashbros) is overrun with people making low-effort Smash Ultimate posts atm and r/ssbm is a lot less active

I still think there's no chance Waluigi wins.

That's the one FF vs Nintendo match I can't see going to the N.

I’m really hoping Waluigi pulls through... he’s a character with big rally potential... I can see Walu pulling the upset at the moment if FF keeps looking like this
http://www.change.org/petitions/nintendo-give-waluigi-a-chance-in-the-spotlight
Let's try giving Waluigi a chance in the spotlight! 2,400+ supporters!
And Monika's votes fall back down to earth.

For the record: Knuckles and Master Hands vote totals spiked up like crazy during the update that Monika's did. As if the FF guys needed another nail in their coffins.
Black Turtle did a pretty good job.

Meh, if it wasn't for the HUGE pic advantage (for MH) I figure Noctis would do a lot better.

And, geez, Zero, is that all you can do? Lightning nearly tripled turbo fodder, so why aren't you approaching 80% here?

So.... does MH have any shot against Wario next round, assuming Wario wins? I'm thinking Wario will still have a clear advantage, especially if the pics change to larger ones next round.

I don't think Octopath Traveler characters will be THAT bad! The game has sold really well and has been well received. It's probably gonna become the Tales of Symphonia/Golden Sun of the Switch.

Primrose is arguably the best character of the eight that you play as in Octopath Traveler. It's a pretty good game that was well received. The Switch has been on fire.

Primrose is from a game that is published by both Square and Nintendo, and is a from a popular new JRPG. She’d cream Chloe.
Still hoping.

Is there something particularly wrong with Noctis's picture? Since Master Hand is a glove, he doesn't really have many bad angles unless you really force it so his picture seems normal to me.
This was not the best year for my bracket.

The Master Hand picture is pretty great
Aesthetics was a big part of the reason I took Master Hand over Wario (until I chickened out).
If I only consulted the Gossip Stones like BKSheikah, instead of listening to Tingle, maybe I could have been the 2017 Guru Champ!

Yeah my bracket is f***ing DOA. Even a moderate stance on FF looks to be doomed after this.

Noctis has started stalling at least but it's unlikely to matter when the lead is already so big

well Noctis is showing some signs of life at least

It's remarkable just how close the Zidane/Knuckles and Noctis/MH votes align.

Looks like your bracket is about to crash hard.
Still hoping.

Lightning is going to be one of the most impressive FF character at this rate.
Ranticoot 10/20/2018 6:12:01 PM#284
i feel a lot better, though still not great, about Crash now

seeing Spyro not totally tank makes me wish I had used a nom on Ratchet. he got a pretty popular release and missed the bracket completely. truly i think there's some matches in this bracket he could outright be a favorite in.
Born to lose, live to win!
I'm excited for Crash/Cecil, that should be a fun match. One of the most intriguing R1 matches IMO.
Now crack that combination:

Potential freeze updates for all 4 matches:

Zero 74.17% 445
Primrose 25.83% 155
TOTAL VOTES 600

Zidane Tribal 44.83% 269
Knuckles the Echidna 55.17% 331
TOTAL VOTES 600

Noctis Lucis Caelum 42.81% 257
Master Hand 57.19% 343
TOTAL VOTES 600

Monika 34.17% 205
Wario 65.83% 395
TOTAL VOTES 600

For Zero/Primrose, I seemed to remember that Zero had 74.18% at the freeze, but that was with the poll results page showing 609 votes for some reason. Yet the raw voting data for all 4 matches shows identical vote totals for every match at the freeze, so I blame this discrepancy on the poll results page not being fully accurate. I ended up calculating the result of the Zero/Primrose match at the freeze assuming 600 votes at the freeze and Zero's percentage being roughly around 74.18% (although 74.17% is the closest percentage that works with 600 votes)

Zidane/Knuckles was calculated based on a post on Discord where someone mentioned that Knuckles apparently had a 62 vote lead at the freeze.

Noctis/Master Hand couldn't be calculated based on any known information I could find, so I assigned them percentages that were nearly identical to what the results would have been without factoring in the registered user bonus. Either way, I'm not too concerned about the accuracy here.

Monika/Wario is the only freeze result that I personally saw with my own eyes and can vouch for its accuracy. It formed the basis for attempting to work out the other 3 matches.

I have the % of Noctis Master
43.14 - 56.86

Unfortunately, I only tracked the last 2 matches so I can't tell you the others (but I confirm your 4th match %)
Zero had 450 votes and 73.89%
Primrose had 159 votes and 26.11%

Zidane had 268 votes and 44.67%
Knuckles had 332 votes and 55.33%

Noctis had 258 votes and 43.14%
Master Hand had 340 votes and 56.86%

pretty solid guesswork on Zidane/Knux!
Master Hand was less at the freeze. I forget the exact percentage but for sure it was less than 57 as that was the match I was watching at the freeze. I wanted to say 56.84 but I see it was cleared up above me.

Nice, didn't think you had retrieved the freeze vote totals. Guess you can go ahead and use your numbers instead.
