Alright so Metal Gear doesn't have to totally suck if Mass Effect can redeem itself. Let's go Shepard performing really well on Ryu! Simultaneously the worse Ryu looks the worse Ganon looks! (edited 11/7/2018 8:55:35 PM) |
LeonhartFour posted... Gordon gets 27.56% on Terra Damn, that would have been glorious to see. I bet some people would've taken Gordon to win that. If all else fails use fire. |
I've been waiting for the other topic to fill up to post the 5-minute X-Stats since they're already super late, but whatever.

so Kratos vs. GlaDOS: who ya got? since Pikachu and Mewtwo got similar percentages on them |
Cayde > Neku?! Dammit Bowser you better 80/20 2B. BK_Sheikah? More like BYIG_Sheikah. https://imgur.com/gw03gl7 - Number of people that D'awwed: 102 |
Lots of weird Ganondorf hatred in the last topic. If y'all don't like Ganondorf for lacking a personality, I hope not a single one of you f***ers votes for Link in his matches. "undertale hangs out with mido" - ZFS Not changing this sig until CM Punk returns to the WWE |
if anything the Ganondorf hatred wasn't strong enough imhotbqh |
Ganondorf is a better character than Squall. "undertale hangs out with mido" - ZFS Not changing this sig until CM Punk returns to the WWE |
can't wait for ExTha to panic rally for Ganondorf when Dante is going neck and neck with him next round LOLOLOLO (edited 11/7/2018 10:19:28 PM) |
LeonhartFour posted... can't wait for ExTha to panic rally for Ganondorf when Dante is going neck and neck with him next round LOLOLOLO Well, we got to figure out who is dropping Division 1 to Donkey Kong somehow. Agent Triple Zero at your service! This line reserved for the true greatone, the 2018 Guru Contest winner. http://thengamer.com/guru/bracket.php?id=40 |
Dante the same guy that lost to Yoshi is gonna beat Ganondorf a year after BoTW and with Smash 3 weeks away, yeah sure ok "undertale hangs out with mido" - ZFS Not changing this sig until CM Punk returns to the WWE |
watch out for CALAMITY EXTHA also yesterday was a bad day for "Smash = Instant win" |
what is this at the end of the last topic about Bayanetta? "L-Block 2007 Character Battle Champion" Always remember. "L-Block, shaped like a boot to kick your ass" |
Leon I am not gonna enjoy seeing you depressed about Squall getting Ulti-style blown out by Zelda but just know that I did tell you so "undertale hangs out with mido" - ZFS Not changing this sig until CM Punk returns to the WWE |
im317 posted... what is this at the end of the last topic about Bayanetta? Lady Gaga is playing Bayonetta and Twitter... went gaga over it. BK_Sheikah? More like BYIG_Sheikah. https://imgur.com/gw03gl7 - Number of people that D'awwed: 102 |
ExThaNemesis posted... Leon I am not gonna enjoy seeing you depressed about Squall getting Ulti-style blown out by Zelda I mean everyone's been apologizing to me since round 1 and if Squall loses, he loses (although no one will actually feel bad for me when that match rolls around LOL) But nothing will take the shine away from Phoenix Wright proving to be legit. If anyone ever says, "Only on GameFAQs would Phoenix Wright beat Chris Redfield and Ike," I'll just be like, "You're darn right!" That's a badge of pride for this site.

Fun with Numbers, Division 4 Edition! If 2B = Phoenix Wright: Ike beats Ness with 53.09% Shadow beats Chris with 50.22% Joel beats Cayde-6 with 70.15% If Bowser = Kirby: Charizard beats Isaac with 65.81% Terra beats Guile with 68.97% Gordon beats Estelle with 53.52% (For the record, that's the amount +0.01% that Kirby needs to beat Bowser by for Estelle > Gordon in case you guys want something to root for) (edited 11/7/2018 10:57:12 PM) |
Man, who would have thought Gordon Freeman vs. Estelle Bright could have been a round 1 upset? Agent Triple Zero at your service! This line reserved for the true greatone, the 2018 Guru Contest winner. http://thengamer.com/guru/bracket.php?id=40 (edited 11/7/2018 11:04:29 PM) |

_SecretSquirrel posted... Man, who would have thought Gordon Freeman vs. Estelle Bright could have been a round 1 upset? I have an easier time believing that everyone in Gordon's fourpack except Gordon is just really good. He's is clearly fodder now, but there's no way he'd drop so far down as to lose to an absolute nobody like Estelle Bright, surely? If all else fails use fire. |
Gordon Freeman was the original absolute nobody. |
Rags to riches to rags, I guess. Well, substitute "riches" for "middle class". If all else fails use fire. |
LeonhartFour posted... If Bowser = Kirby: Hnnnggg So close, yet so far! |
Surely Gordon gets some Pac-Man apathy factor, right? ...Right? "Those who cast the vote decide nothing. Those who count the vote decide everything." |
Now I want Kirby > Bowser so that Estelle beats Gordon imhotbbq Courage is the magic that turns dreams into reality. |
LeonhartFour posted... Fun with Numbers, Division 4 Edition! Also I missed this classic 'lol Shadow' result. The last time they met sure wasn't this close, I'll say that much. |

If anyone ever says, "Only on GameFAQs would Phoenix Wright beat Chris Redfield and Ike," I'll just be like, "You're darn right!" That's a badge of pride for this site. He would at least be close. Chris and Ike aren't exactly murderer's row as far as popularity is concerned. Ike gets all his popularity from Smash while Chris is divisive even among Resident Evil fans.

Ike's the most popular character from that Fire Emblem Heroes thing that has a lot of fans |
mnkboy907 posted... im317 posted...what is this at the end of the last topic about Bayanetta? Well, that is pretty awesome. Character Battle X Current Score: 78/96 ... whatever |
So with Round 2 ending in a few days, is there anything about user submitted match pics for Round 3? Or are we getting these images throughout the contest? Warning: I'm literally VeryInsane. |
VeryInsane posted... So with Round 2 ending in a few days, is there anything about user submitted match pics for Round 3? I really hope we're not stuck with these for the whole contest. The match pics are like, a third of the reason I'm so invested in these contests. I mean say what you want about the Undertale rally, but it produced some pretty good pics in the final match Rally for Kirby in Character Battle X! He is the true hero of Nintendo! |
So I'm looking at the trends from my country (Brazil) and found some interesting things. This is SonyFAQs. The PS1 is the strongest console here bar none, and everything that had a peak in PS1 has a peak here. Resident Evil is beastly. Castlevania is beastly. MGS is beastly. MMX is absolute god mode. Aya Brea overperforms like crazy, though she doesn't win R2. Nintendo is moderately weaker, but how weak varies between characters. Ness is garbage here, but stuff like Mario and Zelda, not that much. Donkey Kong doesn't change. Pokemon is moderately weaker all across the board in R1, though Red flips over Sora and Zard flips over Bowser (even though he loses to Terra). FF doesn't seem to vary from the global trends. Matches involving FF characters have little change. Same for KH. Frog's match had the same results, but Magus flipped over VIncent and got 55%, so either we don't care about Vincent or CT is a little stronger here. Noctis flipped over Hand, though. PW seems a little stronger too. Don't ask me why. Sonic is also considerably stronger, for some reason. The only Sonic character who didn't get higher percentage in R1 was Metal Sonic, which stayed the same, probably because of the stronger MGS I mentioned above. We care even less about modern gaming than the world average. Ramza almost doubled Garrus. K. Rool flipped his match. Glados was weaker despite pokemon being weaker. All fighting game characters are stronger too. Chun-Li beat Ganondorf, and Ryu hit 77% in his match. Bomberman is stronger too and beats Kefka in a close match. MMX is the big winner here. I might take MMX over Link if the contest was limited to Brazil. Both Zero and MMX got nearly 90% in their R1 matches, and Zero got 73% on Knuckles. No idea what this says about Mega Man Classic, though. I don't know how much you folks care about this stuff but hey, it's stats. I'm posting it because I love stats. Brazil is probably only about 2% of the gameFAQs userbase though, looking at geographical polls, but hey, maybe we help MMX win a close match over Luigi/Tifa. (edited 11/8/2018 8:36:00 AM) |
ZeldaTPLink posted... Donkey Kong doesn't change. He would have lost to Tidus in any contest prior to CB IX. Him beating Leon was an even bigger surprise. |
TooTooP3 posted... ZeldaTPLink posted...Donkey Kong doesn't change. I mean geographically, not temporarily. In Brazil, DK only got 50.3% on Leon. |
Him
being ahead of Leon at all is an improvement. I blamed his first
victory on the death of FF, but after beating Leon is when I realized
he's just gotten stronger. |
I
think LMS is right re: Phoenix. The series is legit popular now. There
is a reason the original trilogy is fast becoming a new SFII or RE4 for
Capcom in terms of putting it on absolutely everything. And nobody
really likes Chris Redfield. I just decided to change this sig. Blaaaaaaargh BKSheikah |
Came back from work, checked the results. Squall with less than a doubling. Didn't expected that. Why is Zelda so strong? Why is Fox so strong? Aerith beating another Nintendo character. FF>Nintendo confirmed! So why we exist? What happens when we stop existing? |
So is anyone here planning on tweeting CDPR when we get to Round 3 (assuming Simon doesn't advance, obviously)? As I recall, in the 2015 contest they mentioned they'd have tweeted in support of W3 if they'd found out about the contest in time. While I feel like Geralt should be able to squeak by Simon via natural strength, his subsequent match with Bayonetta is a foregone conclusion otherwise. "In this world you will have trouble. But take heart! I have overcome the world." - John 16:33 (edited 11/8/2018 9:03:49 AM) |
How the hell has Fox continued to rise?! 😂 Now crack that combination: 27 99 23. |

Pretty much, Phoenix Wright isn't a board or even a GameFAQs creation, he may not defeat Chris or Ike on other sites, but he won't be embarrassed. CBX - Today's Winners: Squall, Zelda, Fox, Aerith Score: 74/96 |
Captain_Sorzo posted... So is anyone here planning on tweeting CDPR when we get to Round 3 (assuming Simon doesn't advance, obviously)? Is Squall vs Zelda gonna be happening at the same time? If so, you have my blessing if that looks bad. |

Probably because it's easy and cheap, unlike localizing AAI2 or the DGS games. |
TheCodeisBosco posted... How the hell has Fox continued to rise?! 😂 people have not played his recent games. Adventures was solid but 64 was the last great game he had. U was 64 with fresh paint and a control scheme nobody really wanted. oh and Assault was ok, but it was short. maybe the multiplayer was good? never tired that. unless Star Fox 2 on the SNES classic actually did something for him? "L-Block 2007 Character Battle Champion" Always remember. "L-Block, shaped like a boot to kick your ass" (edited 11/8/2018 9:54:21 AM) |
Yeah,
I'd wager most of the voters haven't played a Star Fox game other than
Star Fox 64. I know I haven't! Well, other than a little bit of
Adventures. Fox benefits a lot from being a good character in most Smash
games, too. (edited 11/8/2018 9:54:33 AM) |
MetalmindStats posted... Also I missed this classic 'lol Shadow' result. The last time they met sure wasn't this close, I'll say that much. Oh, I missed this post from earlier. The last time they met, RE5 hadn't been released yet, so it makes sense that it'd be closer now. Shadow is probably the same character he's been for a decade plus now in terms of strength. He's above the fodder line, but just barely. |
TheCodeisBosco posted... How the hell has Fox continued to rise?! 😂 everybody knows fox from being high/top tier in all smash games so far (although this looks to change in Ultimate where everybody has agreed he was ass in the Ultimate demos), plus ultimate is now less than a month away maybe people cared about fox from star fox before, but this power has to be mostly from smash now. SF hasn't gotten a game anybody wanted since... 64. Zero was ruined by the controls, and we already know how people thought about the Cube titles. And Star Fox 2, a game running at a whole 10fps, is definitely not going to boost anybody from Star Fox Also it's D.Va You felt your sins weighing down on your neck. (edited 11/8/2018 10:25:15 AM) |
Captain_Sorzo posted... So is anyone here planning on tweeting CDPR when we get to Round 3 (assuming Simon doesn't advance, obviously)? Yes But only on Round 3 because if he can't beat Simon (which should be weaker than Rosalina) he is not worth rallying for 3DS FC : 3411-1762-0066 |
