Bowser's scoring huge from TJF right now.

Someone tell me what this means for Kirby > Bowser

That Kirby better bring a whooping for Guile, or else Bowser has a pass to the Legends bracket.

Cayde-6 might be one of the absolute weakest characters we have ever had in a contest so this isn't super surprising to me


This early performance suggests Cayde-6 could be as bad as Tanner.

Also, Charizard struggling this much is a bit surprising, and he didn't get the insane board vote that is typical of Pokemon.

Charizard is going to lose this damn match. He has the Pokemon board vote AND brackets, and this is what he does?
Black Turtle did a pretty good job.
Into the top 50. Yew
Started from the bottom now we here
Hot take: Still taking 2B to lose next round!

Or maybe he did, and this is just a really bad sign for him.

Destiny looked terrible in 2015, so it's hard to say what this means for 2B.

Given Kefka's board vote, I wouldn't count out Terra beating Pokemon with hers.

Yeah, I think bracket voting is minimal here since Char is the overwhelming favorite, so I think this should be consistent with Terra taking a huge board vote like Kefka did and dying off here.

Next update could be crucial.

Preach, it's already a dead meme. This is more likely a combination of Nintendomination thanks to Switch + Smash hype, and Gordon being weaker than previous contests.
Now crack that combination:
27 99 23.
swordz9 10/24/2018 5:12:47 PM#474
Well if these stay how the matches have so far it’s over since none have changed leaders. Really was hoping Shadow would pull off a win there. He even had Smash hype potential. Sure glad these double votes made Nintendo even stronger >_>
this is making me feel good about taking Bowser to beat Crono

That's at least part of it. Gordon before Half-Life 2 was the guy that made GFNW famous, and he's probably regressing without any new games or any new Valve games at all hitting the market.

WOW. Zard really is a fraud.
Get the X out.
Vinateri was using his god powers on the Pats and then was like "Wait I'm a Colt now lol" and now you have it.
So, do you think Gordon vs. Simon Belmont (vs. Hades, I think?) would flip if we ran it this contest?

I think it's a bit of both. NINTENDOMINATION has been a consistent theme of this contest (except for Charizard lol), but Gordon and Half-Life have unquestionably weakened a lot because Valve no longer cares about video games.

Honestly, screw Valve. They gave up the medium to gamify consumer spending.
I just decided to change this sig.

I'm really hoping the lack of close matches thus far doesn't last through the whole first round.

Like, wasn't this around the point where people started cooling down on the Rivals contest because none of the matches were even close?

Sheesh... I thought Bowser had a decent chance at 70%, but 80% is ridiculous. I mean - Ganondorf pulled 78.63% against Neku Sakauba.

Gordon vs. Neku - who wins?
Yay - BkSheikah is the guru champion of awesomeness.

After Kefka yesterday and Terra today, it makes sense that both of them received an FFVI boost. The Charizard result seems to be more on Terra boosting than Charizard dropping in strength, but only round 2 can really confirm this.

What even are these results.

2B quadrupling a character

Gordon Freeman getting quadrupled by a character

Terra getting 45% on Charizard

At least I seem to be getting 4 points today?

Well, my Pikachu > Charizard theory is pretty much proven now!

Also, didn't Leon predict like 84% for 2B? Bow down to Leon, everyone.
