Mario/Samus SFF is not confirmed at all. And much less is it that there was no rSFF in Tifa/Seph. Stop ignoring everything that happened.

You really think after we've seen underdogs gain bandwagons contest after contest that Zelda does not have one here? You really think the Zelda that beat Aerith is on par with the one that beat Mario? Because she isn't. She straight up beat NN'ers twice, one of them being a debated second strongest while already having crushed brackets getting there. She's bandwagoned hard.

Mario would easily beat Snake too. It's a shame we can't get that confirmed.
You get some really messed up numbers if you assume Mario/Samus is the only wonky match.

It could have even been higher than 450 rallied votes, because removing 450 votes from Zelda would give Zelda 52.40% with anonymous users (Zelda had 48.82% with registered users). We would still have a fairly large split of about 3.5% between registered and anonymous users even with 450 votes removed from Zelda.

Samus/Mario had a 3.25% voter split difference, so none of this is out of the realm of possibility. Mario does very well with registered voters.
Black Turtle did a pretty good job.

That Snake pic wouldn't really be so bad if his head was in the center of the pic where you could see Snake's face when viewing by mobile. I more blame Allen on slecting it and how strict he can be at times sticking to a pic format than Ulti (though he should've known better and considered how match pics would look on phones given how long he's been picsmithing).

I was kidding, but votals don't bother me at all.

10k votes still makes for an interesting analysis of user preferences. It's still decent sample size. It would just really streamline the bracket making process. Nobody would have been forced to back Monika and Waluigi making the final out of rally fear

Just weighing up heirachies, x stats and subtle trends. Sounds fun

We all want Samus to win becaue Samus/Zelda and Samus/Cloud is a far more interesting Contest.

1.66% on initial brackets, 6.88% on second chance brackets.

The former figure is #3 among 1v1 matches (behind the last two Undertale matches), tied for #7 (with L-Block in the semifinals in 2007) all-time. The latter figure would itself be tied for #17 among 1v1s (with Brawl in the GotD semifinals).

Yes,that means that this was still considered less surprising than Draven > Link.

How is a Zelda bandwagon confirmed? This could just be Mario getting more rSFF than we figured and maybe pic factor.

Not that I’m ruling a bandwagon out. I just don’t believe it’s confirmed.

Did she face Mario with a ZSS pic? Maybe there’s an outside chance she could win with a ZSS pic.

People should submit a lot of hawt ZSS pics if they want a better match.

I could see Tifa and MMX being slightly above Sonic, but not by THAT much....

That was a really bad 3rd hour for Crono. The thing keeping his hopes alive is that with the low votals, hour to hour variance of the percentages is much higher than before. Gotta hope MM has had good variance these first 3 hours.

Legends and Loser Bracket, Round 3 and later

Zelda vs. Mario
Registered Vote Result:
Zelda - 4200 (48.82%)
Mario - 4403 (51.18%)

Anonymous Vote Result:
Zelda - 5333 (54.59%)
Mario - 4436 (45.41%)

Mario won the registered users, but Zelda did close to 6% better with anonymous users. Some of that was from the hentai rallies, but I could still see Zelda doing at least 3% better with anonymous users without any rallies, based on the splits in the first Samus/Mario match.

so far this Crono match has been following the first megaman vs Pikachu almost exactly

i imagine Megaman will lose the lead later on in the europe vote, but i also think Crono will have a harder time holding it than Pikachu, so for now Megaman is the favorite.

The Samus/Mario match used sprite pictures. Samus does have a good sprite that is recognizable, but Mario is perhaps the king of sprites by having the most iconic sprites in video games. I think Samus has a good chance of doing better in a rematch that won't have sprites.

Before this contest, Crono was the first one to embarrass the Noble Nine every contest.

This contest, Mega Man was the first one to embarrass the Noble Nine. He redeemed himself in a rematch though, and redeeming himself prevented Crono from his opportunity to redeem himself against Pikachu for his handicapped loss in 2013 (who wasn't even the first Pokemon to defeat him, but he might not ever face Missingno again).

If Crono can't get his chance to redeem himself against Pikachu or Pokemon in general like he did against Vincent, he'll just have to die trying to redeem himself against the robot boy who prevented his redemption.

Blast his face back through time, Mega Man.
