DID you ask permission to make this topic? How dare you yep, don't mind, I've already won one and I'm rich, it's not like I need 1k for video games - UltimaterializerX |
Hey, as long as Ulti doesn't make the majority of the topics its all good Courage is the magic that turns dreams into reality. |
Woah, Bayonetta. Black Turtle did a pretty good job. |
Good matches. Nice to see Zelda having all the reason in the world to boost and taking full advantage of it. |
how high can zelda go here geez xp1337: Don't you wish there was a spell-checker that told you when you a word out? |

zelda just slaughtering You felt your sins weighing down on your neck. |
Zelda
will not beat Solid Snake. The only chars left who can take Snake are
Sephiroth and whoever wins between Link and Cloud. I am surprised Zelda
is winning, period. The seeding is pretty bad in this whole thing. There are 1, 2 and 3 seeds I've never even heard of while characters like Sub Zero, Gordon Freeman, and Aeris are 10 or worse seeds. Why is Cloud not the 2 seed? Samus will not beat either Link or Cloud, so where was the logic there? (edited 11/13/2018 4:51:45 PM) |
Okay, that's it. We should officially have a term called "FFPF" (Final Fantasy Protagonist Factor). It is characterized by the main characters of their respective games have some kind of underperformance or for "choking" badly against stiff competition. Here lies the sig of BK_Sheikah00, who swore fealty to the Gurus of Board 8. |
My takeaways 1. Come on Geralt! 2. Very surprised to see Aeris winning convincingly so far. 3. All three women winning their matches so far today, in Round 3. Good year for female characters overall, it seems to me. 4. Seriously regretting my Auron > Zelda pick in loser's bracket right now. Character Battle X Current Score: 128/160 We Can Do It! |

Geralt with another comeback. This guy really doesn't have an easy match huh |
The Owner of FF9 posted... ??? Another way to get Sonic/Zelda is to have a result of Snake > Zelda and Auron > Sonic in round 1 of the Legends Bracket, which would create a Sonic/Zelda match in round 1 of the Loser Bracket.

Tf happened to Squall "i am pretty sure 3-year old children would generate more thoughtful discussion than board 8 on any topic of sexism" - Naye745 |
Probably the same thing that happened to Vincent ""Love"

All MGS characters have looked like s*** in this contest and Zelda is looking like N9 right now. Explain to me why can't Snake go back to being what he looked like pre-2013. And if so, why can't Zelda beat him. (edited 11/13/2018 4:52:49 PM) |

So this is the most shocking result of the contest, right? People were expecting a Zelda win but wow. Black Turtle did a pretty good job. |
how does it feel to be a drone GJ BK_Sheikah |
ZeldaTPLink posted... All MGS characters have looked like s*** in this contest and Zelda is looking like N9 right now. Because he's Solid Snake? He's probably the biggest character from PlayStation that isn't Cloud |
KamikazePotato posted... So this is the most shocking result of the contest, right? People were expecting a Zelda win but wow. Nah. By this point most expected a Zelda win. GJ BK_Sheikah |
Dfy556 posted... ZeldaTPLink posted...Dfy556 posted...show hidden quote(s)Zelda will not beat Solid Snake. The only chars left who can take Snake are Sephiroth and whoever wins between Link and Cloud. I am surprised Zelda is winning, period. Yes. At the start of the contest the consensus was that Sephiroth is bottom N9 and Snake/Mario were fighting for #2. Now the consensus is that MGS is looking like s***. So explain where you did take that from, because your list of things that can beat Snake is a bizarre random list of characters that doesn't match either pre-contest stats nor current ones. |

If Geralt is at 48% at the end of the hour he has enough room to win base on the last 2 rounds. i7 7700k, RTX 2070, 12gb DDR4 Playing: Red Dead Redemption 2 (PS4), Fallout 76 (PC) |

The only chars left who can take Snake are Sephiroth and whoever wins between Link and Cloud. I am surprised Zelda is winning, period. Uh, it's my opinion? What does this even mean |
Dfy556 posted... ZeldaTPLink posted...All MGS characters have looked like s*** in this contest and Zelda is looking like N9 right now. Based on what stats |
For the record, I don't buy that Sephiroth still isn't the bottom of the Noble Nine. His performance against Captain Falcon was okay. Black Turtle did a pretty good job. |
Snake lost to Samus in 2006. Why is Samus not in your list, for example? |
ZeldaTPLink posted... Explain to me why can't Snake go back to being what he looked like pre-2013. And if so, why can't Zelda beat him. Because that would require a drop of epic proportions to go from number 2 just behind Link to being at the bottom of the Noble Nine. Zelda would only really be capable of beating the bottom of the Noble Nine (Sonic, Mega Man, maybe Sephiroth depending on how weak he's gotten). I have no idea where Crono might be this year.

Zelda would pwn Crono so hard right now. GJ BK_Sheikah |
LusterSoldier posted... The Owner of FF9 posted...??? So by "this contest," you meant the legends (winner's) bracket? Character Battle X Current Score: 128/160 We Can Do It! |
It would be a fall oif epic proportions, yes. But it would match what we have seen from Big Boss, The Boss, Quiet and Ocelot. |
ZeldaTPLink posted... Dfy556 posted...ZeldaTPLink posted...show hidden quote(s)All MGS characters have looked like s*** in this contest and Zelda is looking like N9 right now. Stats? I have no idea what you're talking about. When I think popular playstation characters 8 think Cloud, Snake, Crash, Spyro, Squall... I don't have any stats dude, I played all the games. It's just my opinion based on how I feel about them |
LusterSoldier posted... I have no idea where Crono might be this year. runner-up after a hard fought match with link ending in a heroic, respectful handshake between the two xp1337: Don't you wish there was a spell-checker that told you when you a word out? |
SuperNiceDog posted... Zelda would pwn Crono so hard right now. I wouldn't be so sure, Magus and Frog both looked really solid. Now crack that combination: 27 99 23. |
Dfy556 posted... ZeldaTPLink posted...Dfy556 posted...show hidden quote(s)ZeldaTPLink posted...All MGS characters have looked like s*** in this contest and Zelda is looking like N9 right now. This is Character Battle 10. There are 9 contests before this one where Snake lost matches to characters other than the ones you have mentioned. That's what "stats" means. |
SuperNiceDog posted... Zelda would pwn Crono so hard right now. We haven't even seen Crono in action yet, so let's not jump to any conclusions on his potential strength before he has his first match this. Crono's match against Kirby/Bowser will give us an idea as to whether he can beat Cloud. The Owner of FF9 posted... So by "this contest," you meant the legends (winner's) bracket? Both the Legends and Loser bracket. Luster Soldier --- ~Shield Bearer~ | ~Data Analyst~ Popular at school, but not as cool as BK_Sheikah00, Guru Champ! |
FSABot posted... If Geralt is at 48% at the end of the hour he has enough room to win base on the last 2 rounds. Geralt’s got one problem here. He’s not slaying in Europe like he was the last few rounds. Agent Triple Zero at your service!

Sorry
my friend, I don't want to be rude, but if you come here saying "there
is no way anyone but Link/Crono/Sephiroth beats Snake" you better show
your evidence, because we have 16 years of evidence on this side. Snake lost to Samus in 2006. Why can't he lose to her now? |

Dfy556 posted...ZeldaTPLink posted...show hidden quote(s)Dfy556 posted...ZeldaTPLink posted...All MGS characters have looked like s*** in this contest and Zelda is looking like N9 right now. I don't remember anything specific dude. I just remember it always comes down to Cloud vs Link. I'd have a hard time believing Zelda is more popular than Solid Snake. |
This match... Honestly, I have no words for this. I can't even feel angry. I just feel like I've lost something very valuable because the contests are probably not for me anymore. I feel so, so disconnected from this Squall/Zelda result. I don't even know what to do with this. I'm just...numb. Has it ever happened to you guys before? Feeling like there isn't any reason to care for the contests anymore? Shine on, you crazy diamond. |
The Owner of FF9 posted... Dfy556 posted...ZeldaTPLink posted...show hidden quote(s)Dfy556 posted...ZeldaTPLink posted...All MGS characters have looked like s*** in this contest and Zelda is looking like N9 right now. Lol. s***. I wasn't aware. I thought this was just casual conversation |
Crono is really hard to predict. I could see him losing to Kirby or beating Cloud. |
To
be fair The Boss looks waaaaay better after Zelda just annihilating
Squall like this. And if I told you pre-contest, "Big Boss gets 49% on
Sora" you would probably go "yep sounds right to me". So I think MGS
looking bad is not yet certain. I just decided to change this sig. Blaaaaaaargh BKSheikah |
