Contest Stats and Discussion - Part 1321 GameFAQs Contests
Respect
to Cloud for holding up and making a match of this in the Smash/BotW
era. Re-established as the strongest non-Nintendo character by a
distance even with Seph collapsing. We are living our lives Abound with so much information |
Down to 63 votes now. This is trending towards a Cloud win unless there's the usual Mario shenanigans |
I really wish I knew how many people in the Top 10 has a Cloud win here. At least 1 of them has to I would assume |
Down to 40 votes now so I'd expect a lead change soon |
Remember what happened to Samus, Cloud. Don't let up when you get the lead. Put the match beyond reach of his shenanigans. September 1, 2003; November 4, 2007; September 2, 2013 Congratulations to DP Oblivion in the Guru Contest! |
Told that before. The Mario clutch(meaning vote stuffing!) So why we exist? What happens when we stop existing? |
Even
as a huge fan of Samus it feels a little soul-crushing to see her, not
exactly the top of the heap when it comes to Nintendo (though she's not
far behind, but still), blow out the strongest non-Square/Nintendo rep. Oh my god, I just realized that ZELDA can now beat any character not from Nintendo or Square (and for all we know she could take Cloud). Wow. I guess that's what happens when other companies embarrass themselves on a regular basis. "Nothing I could do!" -Darksydephil |
Man, this time Mario will lose the lead This reminds me of Pikachu/Mega Man (1st) "Surely, once the day vote comes, Mega Man will take the lead...Mega Man..? any time now.." Like Mario doing better in the night against Cloud and then losing the day..amazing... wololo |
This match is following Crono/Megaman really well. Which is good for Cloud! September 1, 2003; November 4, 2007; September 2, 2013 Congratulations to DP Oblivion in the Guru Contest! |
Well
Mario has all the US/Canada and Clpud has the bulk of Europe so this
could just be a case of Europeans getting home from work. So it could
still swing back in a few hours to favor Mario |

Cloud is rocking in Colorado! We are living our lives Abound with so much information |

Re-established as the strongest non-Nintendo character by a distance even with Seph collapsing. If you extrapolate based on this, Samus/Snake, and Mario/Samus 1, Cloud threatens 60% against Snake. Wait a sec, Snake is weaker than Mega Man now? Hmmm...back to 2004 I see. "Nothing I could do!" -Darksydephil |
Just wanted to say I really like the "villainous Mario" concept One of the very few times a character gets a contest personality (the other being Unpredictable Kefka I guess?) wololo |

But if you assume Mario/Samus is an SFF mess and instead extrapolate though Zelda/Mario and Zelda/Snake, then Cloud only gets 50.7% on Snake. |
I
mean Zelda vs Mario also has SFF maybe but I guess Zelda is more robust
than Samus since she's got the series advantage. And because her
results still make sense if the only thing you remove are the Mario vs
Samus matches. |
Cloud. What a guy. |
Come on Cloud! We know you have what it takes dammit! #HeroCloud #OurSaviour ~Phoenix Nine~ ~Victory needs no explanation; defeat allows none.~ |

If you extrapolate through Zelda/Mario and Zelda/Snake, then Snake should be stronger than Cloud since Zelda beat Mario harder than she beat Snake. congrats to BKSheikah the BYIG guru |

Cloud ahead! So why we exist? What happens when we stop existing? |
Even with Odyssey and Smash out, Cloud is still a beast. Dilated Chemist |
Cloud is ahead. Time for big match Mario to overcome the odds again. |
Beat the thief Cloud! Beat him! So why we exist? What happens when we stop existing? |
Nanis23 posted... The clutch Mario I don't have f***ing POWERS Just abject desperation Not to be confused with XIII_Stones. (edited 12/12/2018 11:28:12 AM)report |
XIII_rocks posted... Nanis23 posted...The clutch Mario I thought you rallied some people against Samus? wololo (edited 12/12/2018 11:29:57 AM)report |
Yeah I did Some people. Not enough. Cloud is just building and building and is not going to stop. At all. Not to be confused with XIII_Stones. |
Shenanigans. Dilated Chemist |
There's the lead. Now the hard part - holding off Mario's clutch. September 1, 2003; November 4, 2007; September 2, 2013 Congratulations to DP Oblivion in the Guru Contest! |
I accidentally voted cloud when I have mario, this may haunt me. Might have blew my chances finishing in the money. |
Cloud took too long to get this lead. Not enough time to build it I don't think. "undertale hangs out with mido" - ZFS Not changing this sig until CM Punk returns to the WWE |
Mario wasn't doing very well against seph at the end of the match who knows |
The vaillainous Mario thing is weird though. Guess board 8 really likes Samus now. Ctesjbuvf posting on his phone. |
How in the world is Cloud this strong? What happened to the nostalgia + relevance theory? I really thought Odyssey would make this no contest. |
The big thing to me is the difference between Cloud and Seph is huge now Is it all Smash? Warning: I'm literally VeryInsane. |
The_Ctes posted... The vaillainous Mario thing is weird though. Guess board 8 really likes Samus now. Dude, Mario has been cast as a villain by the board forever. Look up “Mario vs Cloud 2002”. >unironically playing video games |
The_Ctes posted... The vaillainous Mario thing is weird though. Guess board 8 really likes Samus now. It's just the many people who argue in favor of Samus being indirectly stronger and wanted to prove it by beating Mario directly There are people who like her sure but I know many stats people have wanted this result for a long time ISFJ Big on Visual Novels, Anime, Video games.

I
know all about that, but it hasn't been relevant since the early days.
And unlike that match, yesterday was Samus almost rallied past Mario,
but fell just short. Not Mario riding major rallies past her. Ctesjbuvf posting on his phone. |
Mario losing is always more interesting than Mario winning. |
this result kinda sets it in stone that Samus is stronger right? if Mario > Samus is legit, that'd put Snake behind Crono and Megaman |
Smash aside, the gap between Cloud and Sephiroth had been slowly increasing for quite awhile up through 2010. [NO BARKLEY NO PEACE] [NO BKSheikah NO PEACE] |
UltimaterializerX posted... It’s remarkable to me how similar this match is to 16 years ago. How the hell do people remember how a match 16 years ago went You don't have the updater for 2002 wololo |
Well, if Cloud wins, we'll get a better idea when he faces Zelda. |
It was recorded and discussed at length even without the updater Not to be confused with XIII_Stones. |
LeonhartFour posted... Well, if Cloud wins, we'll get a better idea when he faces Zelda. Depends. Zelda has a bandwagon right now, which is going to muddle up the numbers for that match. Black Turtle did a pretty good job. |
Nanis23 posted... UltimaterializerX posted...It’s remarkable to me how similar this match is to 16 years ago. Because they’re turbonerds who spent a literal 24 hours constantly F5ing a votecount page. Who wouldn’t remember that kind of experience? >unironically playing video games |
But will she keep it now that she's gone up against Link and still fell far short? |
Nanis23 posted... UltimaterializerX posted...It’s remarkable to me how similar this match is to 16 years ago. Mario/Cloud 2002 was THE match of the contest. Cloud got more votes that day than any previous contestant in any Gamefaqs contest, even the 90%+ blowout winners, and lost. And this was immediately after 2 other close matches in Sonic/Samus and Sephiroth/Megaman and immediately preceding a kind of close one in Crono/Snake. In a couple years I'll remember Mario/Cloud 2002 better than today. September 1, 2003; November 4, 2007; September 2, 2013 Congratulations to DP Oblivion in the Guru Contest! |
