When Mewtwo ends up being worth 49% on his most inflated x-stat possible... See, I told you he'd be weaker this time around!

I picked Ocelot so I can't say I saw this coming really.

But thinking on it, this kinda feels like where Dedede should be in this year that Nintendo has looked so good? Dedede being weak was one of those things I found kinda mindboggling when I read it in the contest analyses this year (I had forgotten his actual matches)... Kirby is pretty big and he's a well-liked character with a distinct design and is often quite funny (an awful lot like Bowser, actually, just obviously Mario > Kirby in general). Him being supposedly weaker than Meta-Knight never made a lick of sense to me, I've definitely run into more Dedede fans personally.

Dedede being weaker than Meta Knight makes perfect sense because all the Kirby characters get most of their strength from their designs and Smash and Meta Knight is superior to Dedede in both.

Do you think Meta Knight would be losing to Ocelot right now? I don't.
Haste_2 10/31/2018 10:13:14 PM#107
Based on the current result, if Mewtwo = Pikachu, GlaDOS beats Scorpion with 54.01%.

If Mewtwo = Charizard, Terra beats GlaDOS with 61.32%.

Meta-Knight vs. Ocelot would have been a heavily debated match pre-contest, but after the second Nintendo boost was revealed, MK would have become the favorite for sure.

Would it have?

I'd have taken Meta Knight without thinking twice, but I guess I think more highly of him than others do then.
LeonhartFour 10/31/2018 10:18:08 PM#110
Tifa is literally at 85% in the UK right now

she's about to start taking off soon

also Ocelot's nearly doubling Dedede there so if he can't take the lead by morning he's pretty much dead
Meta Knight is so much cooler than Dedede

actually now that I think about it all this Nintendo dominance just makes me sad that Diddy's not in this year

that's one lower tier Nintendo character I could actually get on board with finally being strong enough to win matches now!

oh well we'll always have DKC2's 2015 run I guess

Ehhh, nobody on this site really cares about post-Gen 2 Pokemon, but they do love old games from the 90s. This isn't too mindblowing of a result.

Hmmm... is it me, or has Nintendo not had a very good day vote this contest? It seems like the best time is always the first few hours, which could be a good sign for Ocelot.

Though that's a guarantee of nothing since the direct might give us a boost and it's literally Ocelot
"Those who cast the vote decide nothing. Those who count the vote decide everything."
There still hasn't been a single match that's been decided by the 2x bonus to user votes.

I wonder how long until that changes.

Huh, the only mainland European country Tifa is losing is Bulgaria.

Europe is waking up.

Watch the Ocelot charge. I reckon he will be in the lead in 2.5 hours
Given that he hasn't done it yet I'm really doubtful that he'll withstand the day vote even if he does take the lead for a bit.

Bolto4 11/1/2018 1:18:29 AM#123
Yeah, Ocelot may take the lead for a bit, but really doubt he will be able to hang on to it during the day, he needed to be in the lead by now to have a good chance of winning this match
OFool 11/1/2018 1:30:50 AM#124
It’s still 830am in the UK. He will be ahead in 2h and It will be a photo finish.

Were registered voters for Dedede as well?

If so Ocelot has the tailing off of those votes to his advantage as well
Janus5k 11/1/2018 1:46:27 AM#125
Oh, GlaDOS got a cut of 1 vote.

Gotta love those OoT specials

Europe/UK morning vote?

How does one look at the registered vs non-registered votes, really would be good to know where ocelot stands on that

Quicker than expected.

Ocelot will build from this and I don’t think Dedede will be able to quite pull it back. It’s gonna be a close one though!

When do we expect Dedede to start cutting, 3 hours from now?

Also how do I get the registered vs non registered votes, that will be key to predicting the outcome. Or is this only possible after the conclusion of the match?
you can get them by viewing the source code of the detailed results page
abdou 11/1/2018 4:44:03 AM#136
Dedede will probably comeback and win this.

The_Ctes 11/1/2018 4:54:09 AM#137
How can anyone seriously believe the direct will benefit Dedede?

You think people who would otherwise vote for Ocelot will think "But I just saw this direct for a game that Dedede is in today, so that changes everything!"

Look how active the Smash Ultimate board is, clearly at least a few people come here to talk about directs. Odds are a fair amount of them will go to the homepage and vote

Currenty, Ocelot is at 50.23% with registered users and 50.44% with anonymous users. I'm surprised it was actually that close. This could still change later on.

Don't worry, the Smash Direct is coming up in 25 minutes from now. I would expect Dedede to drop off while the Direct is being shown, but then he should recover after it ends.

It's probably coming out in a couple months.

Best case scenario we get another contest next year so we can have some influence.
The_Ctes 11/1/2018 6:55:01 AM#150
I really doubt it makes any real difference. Smash is a month away. People coming here to talk about Smash are probably already doing that or st the very least have been since the direct was announced.
