HaRRicH posted... Vincent was always overrated within FF7, but gotta give credit where credit is due: he's its best optional character. Man low f***ing bar Board 8's Voice of Reason https://imgur.com/chXIw06 |
So, there is a 40 minute Nintendo Direct featuring Smash Ultimate this Thursday at 10AM Eastern. If Geno is revealed as a playable character during his match, will he be able to take down Tifa? Yay - BkSheikah is the guru champion of awesomeness. (edited 10/30/2018 8:12:41 AM) |
cyko posted... So, there is a 40 minute Nintendo Direct featuring Smash Ultimate this Thursday and 10AM Eastern. Depends on; 1) How well Tifa is doing in the poll prior to the possible announcement. 2) If people IMMEDIATELY rally hard for Geno after said announcement. PaulG235 | "But if any man be ignorant, let him be ignorant." This line is currently being vacanted by supreme Guru BKSheikah |
10 am seems awfully late for a match I expect to be 65 - 35 Conformity
and rebellion...both ways are simple-minded--they are only for people
who cannot cope with contradiction and ambiguity. (edited 10/30/2018 8:15:55 AM) |
Yeah, depending on the timing of his reveal 70-75% of voters would have already voted by then. Geno would need a rally It would be awesome to see what changes in trends would occur. CBX - Today's Winners: Auron, Magus, Sub-Zero, Claire Score: 36/44 |
Came back from work, checked the results. Auron doing really good as expected. Vincent barely beating Magus and I think he was losing for a while? Now that I didn't expected. Sub-Zero of course he would won. Claire winning? This is the most suprising result for me. Yeah I know Persona series isn't that famous but Claire winning over Joker? RE 2 remake boost! So why we exist? What happens when we stop existing? |
It
would be nice if Geno could get a non Square non Nintendo opponent one
of these days. Not that he wouldn't still be fodder, but for someone
who's been in so many contests we don't have a great read on him. He
didn't look THAT bad vis a vis Akuma in '07, but looking at '13 that's a
pretty dire performance with only Magikarp and maybe Last Place Factor
to blame anything on. Yesmar |
What is the link for the vote update counter thing? |
*checks results*... -Auron 1% off my Oracle prediction. Good. -Vincent recovering from Magus's lead from last night. Wow! -WHAT?! I can't believe Sub-Zero is winning by this much, having quite possibly the worst picture choice available. I knew Shulk would have a very hard time, but this is nuts. Oh well, maybe it's just my own fanboyism taking place. -Claire pulling the upset here and approaching my Oracle percentage. I'm so glad I switched to her at the last moment! Here lies the sig of BK_Sheikah00, who swore fealty to the Gurus of Board 8. |
This
has probably been discussed before, but why did the contest banner
disappear from the top of the front page? I imagine this will affect
votals quite a lot. Here lies the sig of BK_Sheikah00, who swore fealty to the Gurus of Board 8. |
Ya know...using Vincent/Magus, Magus/Ganondorf 2003, and Vincent/Ganondorf 2006, today's match looks pretty normal! Nominate METAL MAN for 20XX! https://imgur.com/Dr4NAeq |
@Advokaiser You can turn it off if you like. I guess you did it by mistake. So why we exist? What happens when we stop existing? |
900
votes....that's only a bit over 100 an hour. Probably long gone in
this environment though. Someone rally for Magus please! September 1, 2003; November 4, 2007; September 2, 2013 Congratulations to DP Oblivion in the Guru Contest! |
Claire
shouldn’t be considered an upset. Also sad to see Magus so far behind
now. Him winning would’ve been the biggest surprise of the contest |

i went to the twitch channel of someone speedrunning Chrono Trigger and asked for the people in there to vote for magus there were 142 viewers the comeback begins now Curator of the Character Battle X Archive https://bit.ly/2yYUo0A |
@swordz9 Claire winning is actually. The whole Crew went with Joker. As for Magus...the Guest went with Magus so it is not an upset! So why we exist? What happens when we stop existing? |
I can’t see why anyone went with Joker and I’m arguably the biggest Persona fan on the board! |
Because we thought that except Leon all other RE characters would suck. But RE 2 remake boost is real! So why we exist? What happens when we stop existing? |
Crew
is full of Persona fanboys. Wouldn't have been a crew curse had they
kept the voice of reason Lopen around. Claire is probably the bracket
favorite by a lot. No problem! This is a cute and pop genocide of love! |
I’ll be amazed if Joker’s bracket prediction percent thing is over 25% |
he's a 2 seed and had some board support, it'll probably be like a 50/50 prediction percentage Curator of the Character Battle X Archive https://bit.ly/2yYUo0A |
Higher seed so this prediction will be around 45% at least I believe. So why we exist? What happens when we stop existing? |
Lopen posted... Crew is full of Persona fanboys. Wouldn't have been a crew curse had they kept the voice of reason Lopen around. pretty much, yeah. this match reminds of when the whole crew took persona 3 over dragon quest viii. Geothermal terpsichorean ejectamenta |
What was Kiryu’s prediction percent? He was the same seed as Joker I think |
Safer_777 posted... @Advokaiser You can turn it off if you like. I guess you did it by mistake. I'm on my phone, but the current match doesn't appear at the top like it used to (I'm almost certain I didn't close it because I could just make it reappear by refreshing it); instead I have to scroll all the way down below the poll where it invites you to visit the "contest hub". Here lies the sig of BK_Sheikah00, who swore fealty to the Gurus of Board 8. |
swordz9 posted... What was Kiryu’s prediction percent? He was the same seed as Joker I think 45.82% [NO BARKLEY NO PEACE] [NO BKSheikah NO PEACE] |

Joker losing to Claire...while being called Joker....is probably the biggest shock to me so far this contest. Don't mind me. I'm just here for the contest. |
it's funny how claire > joker is somehow more shocking than master hand > noctis Curator of the Character Battle X Archive https://bit.ly/2yYUo0A |
I'd guess Claire probably has north of 65% based on Bomberman getting 55%. No problem! This is a cute and pop genocide of love! |
If I had ever gotten around to playing FFXV, it probably wouldve been. Don't mind me. I'm just here for the contest. |
Changing the name was good, but I still blame the picture. P5 should be stronger than this. Okay, I rolled a 14. What's that mean? Hsu That you're a cheater. This is a 12-sided die. Chan |
Claire's picture is dreadful too so that's probably neutral No problem! This is a cute and pop genocide of love! |
https://i.imgtc.com/olK7UlB.png https://i.imgtc.com/vYqK3ET.png i googled "joker persona 5 render" and grabbed the two most recognizable joker images from the first 5 results and dropped them into photoshop it took about 1 minute total allen plz Curator of the Character Battle X Archive https://bit.ly/2yYUo0A |
https://i.imgtc.com/TCe5DXH.png https://i.imgtc.com/znIVOpm.png https://i.imgtc.com/4CZw7Jh.png i didn't do clean renders of these cuz obviously they aren't getting used but claire has way better pictures to choose from allen just let us do the pics next time, this "120x120 transparent background format" is super easy, we could have knocked out multiple nice match pics for all characters in like two days Curator of the Character Battle X Archive https://bit.ly/2yYUo0A |
Wow. I didn't know Claire was so pretty. Here lies the sig of BK_Sheikah00, who swore fealty to the Gurus of Board 8. |
Those
are so much better. The Claire pic we have right now looks like she
just walked into the restroom and somebody left a turd on the toilet
seat |
Yeah honestly I'd say Claire got screwed more than Joker on the match pic But they're both garbage No problem! This is a cute and pop genocide of love! |
I
think people who know Persona are likely to recognize Joker because he
has his freaking name written below. I don't think the users are dumb
enough to miss that. Match pic matters for people who don't know the characters, I think. In that sense Claire loses all the pic advantage she could possibly have, but Joker isnt much better with that regular boy face. |
Advokaiser posted... *checks results*... Sub-Zero should be winning by more. He's always been a high midcarder, I'm surprised he isn't getting the doubling here against some more JRPG turbofodder BKSheikah, my hat is off to you. Welcome to the Guru Champions Club lol xstats |
I
was surprised that the entire crew+guest went with Ren, but 35% of the
gurus had Claire so it wasn't a huge upset. Even yesterday only 26% took
Simon Belmont. CBX - Today's Winners: Auron, Magus, Sub-Zero, Claire Score: 36/44 |
charmander6000 posted... I was surprised that the entire crew+guest went with Ren, but 35% of the gurus had Claire so it wasn't a huge upset. Even yesterday only 26% took Simon Belmont. I think this was just another classic example of Board 8 overestimating how many people care about the obscure crap du jeur that the board is on that day BKSheikah, my hat is off to you. Welcome to the Guru Champions Club lol xstats |
Jesus christ, are you still making the same post after 15 years? Not to be confused with XIII_Stones. (edited 10/30/2018 11:18:15 AM) |
BlAcK TuRtLe posted... Advokaiser posted...*checks results*... Shulk is in Smash and his game did okay in 2015. I'd say this is pretty good. [NO BARKLEY NO PEACE] [NO BKSheikah NO PEACE] |
xenoblade has been around for long enough that people have actually played it by now the re-release, sequels and smash 4/smash 5 hype and general lack of interest in MK and fighting games in general right now are enough to explain subby's underperformance here Curator of the Character Battle X Archive https://bit.ly/2yYUo0A |
So
after seeing all the other results this round, is anyone worried about a
Ryu > Sephiroth upset? FF7 has looked like absolute ass, and every
ancillary Smash character has vastly impressed. Ryu was already a really
strong character, could Smash have boosted him at all? I definitely
think that match will be at most 52-48 either way. BKSheikah, my hat is off to you. Welcome to the Guru Champions Club lol xstats |
