Solid Snake is a fraud Courage is the magic that turns dreams into reality. |
WEll we can all discard the stupid "Seph will still beat Mario" garbage out the window. Mario will murder him and get Revengre twice over. |
Frauded Snake https://imgur.com/M1heX2g RIP Paul Bearer. Ohhhh nooooo. :( |
I
mean there aren't any Mario or FF7 characters in the polls today so I
don't think today is the best day to draw that conclusion from |

ZeldaFAQs is back. Link’s so pissed at losing to Draven he made Draven the weakest character this time and gave his girlfriend his strength. |
WarThaNemesis2 posted... Frauded Snake Blame Konami Kojima Left Konami . And with that Snakes Soul. He's not the same anymore. |
Not_Wylvane posted... ZeldaFAQs is back. When did ZeldaFaqs go away? Like i've said before. Zelda as a character is just more respected than she was because she isn't just a damsell in distress. |

Back
when people actually came to GameFAQs, the match went the right away
(and I say that as a huge LoZ fan), and in spite of Snake having a
horrible match pic - https://vignette.wikia.nocookie.net/board8/images/a/a0/Cb05b37.jpg https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/poll/2102 But Nintendo boosting, Metal Gear falling (and the most recent games are even about Big Boss instead of Solid Snake), all are coming down to this. Maybe Snake can recover. But while he remains losing, it makes 2013 even more painful. f*** YOU, R/LOL! ALL HAIL! King of the losers! |
ZenOfThunder posted... i made this gif but i guess it's no longer relevant I was hoping you'd make a gif/video of Zelda shooting Snake with an arrow and the MGS game over screen appearing. :( PaulG235 | "But if any man be ignorant, let him be ignorant."

Well, in hindsight, Ezio doesn't look that bad anymore! congrats to BKSheikah the BYIG guru |
So
right now I have to think Zelda is the favorite. Even if Snake does
take back the lead overnight, she'll easily win the day and take back
the lead then. He has to have something like 400-500 votes by the day to
be safe and that'll be tough to get at this rate. I think Pokemon Trainer vs Big Boss is a good match to look at for trends, and Big Boss only gained about 0.5% rest of the match from that point... which would leave Snake still about 0.4% short. https://i.imgtc.com/xAYJuK1.gif Playing: Red Dead Redemption 2 (PS4), Fallout 76 (PC) (edited 11/28/2018 5:15:26 PM) |
That's a pretty substantial cut |

Only in the west do we get half a day..when most of the kids are in School. Snake cannot have any sort of lead above 300 or Zelda is Toast. |

There have been battles with lead changes, like X/Tifa and MM/Pikachu SmashBurb is a generic anime swordsman. |

School doesn't really matter these days because of smartphones. People can vote whenever.. but we still get a substantial amount of people voting during the day, just not in one big chunk like with the ASV. We've seen AAA and kid friendly characters gain about 1% in the final 12 hours still. https://i.imgtc.com/xAYJuK1.gif Playing: Red Dead Redemption 2 (PS4), Fallout 76 (PC) (edited 11/28/2018 5:20:13 PM) |
Zelda is such a tease https://i.imgtc.com/xAYJuK1.gif Playing: Red Dead Redemption 2 (PS4), Fallout 76 (PC) |
Snake cut -> Zelda recovery every time You felt your sins weighing down on your neck. |
This is definitely still a toss-up. If we want to look for trends, Zelda vs The Boss is probably the most logical one to use since she's also an MGS character and Zelda was at 70.31% at the 8:20PM update and ended with 70.70% congrats to BKSheikah the BYIG guru (edited 11/28/2018 5:21:36 PM) |
Yeah that's a huge bounceback and it's not like either is spiking. It's the other falling off that is causing it |
Zero impresses, and Mega Man only looks ok. Magus and Frog impress, but Crono only looks ok. Knuckles and Tails impress, but Sonic only looks ok (at best). I'm sensing a pattern here! Edit: Oh, yeah, and same with Link relative to Ganondorf and Zelda! "Ah,
a party! We haven't had one of those. It could be fun! So... what is
a party?" "Well, you drink punch and eat CAKE! ...I think." (edited 11/28/2018 5:28:14 PM) |

Looking at her matches, she generally actually goes up in percentage from this point so being up at 51% already is pretty good for her. She probably won't go up from here in this match but it gives her a good buffer. https://i.imgtc.com/xAYJuK1.gif Playing: Red Dead Redemption 2 (PS4), Fallout 76 (PC) (edited 11/28/2018 5:28:50 PM) |
Haste_2 posted... Zero impresses, and Mega Man only looks ok. I thought Crono looked pretty good in his match. He got a better results than I expected compared to Mega Man and Sonic who are looking to do worse. Crono managed to finish with a better result on Bowser than Pikachu did on Yoshi. This was not the best year for my bracket. Congrats to BK_Sheikah00 for winning the BYIG Guru Contest! |
Again, I blame Board 8 for talking me out of the Zelda > Snake upset in Second Chance. Oh, sorry, I mean the Zelda > Snake non-upset because apparently the Noble Nine outside of Link are underdogs now! "Someday I'll catch up, and then you'll all be surprised!" BKSheikah has the power. He is the one. |
Yeah I'd agree on Crono for a guy who has had no games for decades or even a Smash appearance He performed very well. Hard to judge Cloud because he didnt face a Nintendo Elite |
TsunamiXXVIII posted... Again, I blame Board 8 for talking me out of the Zelda > Snake upset in Second Chance. Tomorrow will tell us how this contest will go If Seph and Mario is close and Mario can't get more tha 53% on Seph then Cloud can reassure himself of getting to two finals at least. |
2Dover3D posted... Yuri_LowelI posted...The way these contests are formatted There isn't much day. Only in the west do we get half a day..when most of the kids are in School. That and kids don't really come here anymore. Character Battle X Current Score: 224/288 [insert obvious "Snake?!" joke here] |
I
decided to pick this second chance bracket based on my initial thoughts
and stick to it. I picked Zelda here. May still end up being wrong, but
this result doesn't surprise me t all based on results so far. ~ Ringworm ~ Congrats to BKSheikah - Guru champion - Best Year in Gaming |
Even if Snake wins, I am beyond vindicated in those old arguments about how his support collapses against Nintendo. Remember people thinking he could beat FREAKING MARIO? Give me a break.

100 vote barrier breached. |
Zelda really likes punishing cuts by following them with bigger gains. (edited 11/28/2018 5:42:21 PM) |
UltimaterializerX posted... Even if Snake wins, I am beyond vindicated in those old arguments about how his support collapses against Nintendo. He would have beaten Mario in his Prime. The Issue isn't his Nintendo Support. It's the fact that his Sony and MGS support is dying that is causing him to struggle. |
UltimaterializerX posted... Even if Snake wins, I am beyond vindicated in those old arguments about how his support collapses against Nintendo. I have him beating Mario. I still believe damn it. XBL Gamertag - Tiirshak PSN ID - Kudaark Steam Name : skaalfa |
UltimaterializerX posted... Even if Snake wins, I am beyond vindicated in those old arguments about how his support collapses against Nintendo. It depends how Snake looks against Auron or Sonic. Considering how the rest of MGS has looked, it seems likely that Snake has simply collapsed and the collapse is unrelated to fighting a Nintendo opponent. This was not the best year for my bracket. Congrats to BK_Sheikah00 for winning the BYIG Guru Contest! |
I had Mega Man and Snake going to loser's semi-finals. GG y'all. it was fun Character Battle X Current Score: 224/288 [insert obvious "Snake?!" joke here] |
IS the Losers Round two matches per day? |
Yuri_LowelI posted... IS the Losers Round two matches per day? Yes. For the first four rounds. https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/boards/8-gamefaqs-contests/77205898 This was not the best year for my bracket. Congrats to BK_Sheikah00 for winning the BYIG Guru Contest! |
I don’t care one bit about the LOL x stats. Solid Snake can’t beat Mario. Don’t @ me. Winner of the Spring 2004 "Best Game Ever" Contest http://www.twitch.tv/ultimaterializerx ; https://imgur.com/dsnL40n |
*checks results for first time* So, is Alucard still the star of the contest, or is Zelda entering "turd" territory at this point? Yoblazer https://imgur.com/gByqgPg |
I thought I was bold and edgy for taking Zelda > Sonic. LOL. |
CaptainOfCrush posted... is Zelda entering "turd" territory at this point? zelda is getting 51% against a noble niner how is that turd territory You felt your sins weighing down on your neck. |
CaptainOfCrush posted... *checks results for first time* Just how high did you expect Zelda to go on Snake? This was not the best year for my bracket. Congrats to BK_Sheikah00 for winning the BYIG Guru Contest! |

Sorry, I meant "turd because some people probably hate her so much right now." IMO, Zelda is clearly the star now. She's leapfrogged Alucard, Pikachu, and anyone else. Yoblazer https://imgur.com/gByqgPg |
Oh I would agree with Zelda being the star of the contest now, though. You felt your sins weighing down on your neck. |
