That's what I'm talking BOUT Started from the bottom now we here |
And Mario is already up to his very shady votestuffing shenanigans in the weaning hours of the match. |
Match CXLIX: (4) Zelda vs. (7) Mario Zelda Defeated Ezio Auditore da Firenze, 75.33% - 24.67% Defeated The Boss, 70.70%, 29.30% Defeated Squall Leonhart, 63.32% - 36.68% Defeated Aerith Gainsborough, 62.19% - 37.81% Defeated Solid Snake, 50.32% - 49.68% Defeated Sonic the Hedgehog, 56.45% - 43.55% Defeated Mario, 50.91% - 49.09% Lost to Link, 36.44% - 63.56% Mario Defeated Sephiroth, 59.25% - 40.75% Defeated Samus Aran, 51.42% - 48.58% Lost to Zelda, 49.09% - 50.91% Defeated Samus Aran, 50.03% - 49.97% Defeated Cloud Strife, 50.1x-49.8x Analysis Zelda was able to hold Link off for about five minutes before crashing down to Earth. Overall, she did quite well, avoiding the brunt of the SFF hammer. Mario on the other hand is coming off of another close match. Will he be able to get his revenge on Zelda? That depends on whether or not Zelda retains her bandwagon. Her loss to Link was quite demoralizing to the point where it was quite clear she would lose again if she tried. At the same time, she only needs to retain a small portion of that bandwagon to hold off Mario whom is regaining his reputation of being a bit of a villain in these contests. You clutch out three wins over 15 years ago and you’re branded a villain for life. If Cloud wins this match as he is leading and I don’t have time to redo my analysis, I’d give him a better chance at winning, but in the end, I still think Zelda has this. charmander6000’s Bracket: Solid Snake > Mario charmander6000’s Prediction: Zelda wins, 53.73% - 46.27% CBX - Today's Winner: Mario |

So this is where the Mario clutch kicks in? Raytan7585 is better than me at redditFAQs |
Cloud's bringing the anti-clutch. These last two hours are going to be insane. Raytan7585 is better than me at redditFAQs |
You should read the write up first! charmander6000 posted...

This was not the best year for my bracket. Congrats to BK_Sheikah00 for winning the BYIG Guru Contest! |
Cloud's 57-vote update ties his biggest update since 10:25 AM. Raytan7585 is better than me at redditFAQs |
TheOneAboveAll posted... So this is where the Mario clutch kicks in? with 2 hours to go? please. this is mario, he'll kick it in with 2 updates to go. regardless of the margin it'll be enough. he can't keep getting away with it xp1337: Don't you wish there was a spell-checker that told you when you a word out? |
Yeees Yeeees Started from the bottom now we here |
Yay, Cloud is in the lead! If Mario still wins, he'll go down as one of the great GameFAQs Contests villains, up there with Draven and present day Ulti. Courage is the magic that turns dreams into reality. |
Cloud has hit his Limit Break. Let's Play Octopath Traveler (SSLP) https://mega64.net/index.php/lp/ot |

Luckily ulti has already rallied his classmates this time so no last minute bulls*** I'm sure XIII is on his hands and knees at work beggin for people to visit gamefaqs Started from the bottom now we here |
70 votes up? Yeah Cloud has this RIP my bracket and my hopes of winning this. Needed Mario > Cloud and Zelda > Mario to finish 1st |
haloiscoolisbak posted... Luckily ulti has already rallied his classmates this time so no last minute bulls*** That would be weird at 1:20 in the morning Not to be confused with XIII_Stones. |
ShatteredElysium posted... 70 votes up? Yeah Cloud has this Ha ha ha ha. 70 votes is not safe at all. Maybe if there was only 10 minutes left, but this is Mario we're talking about here. Courage is the magic that turns dreams into reality. |
a 70 vote lead with 10 minutes to go would lead the penultimate update being a Mario cut of 32 to cause maximum sweating. we know how this guy operates everyone xp1337: Don't you wish there was a spell-checker that told you when you a word out? |
*Cloud leads at 7 P.M.* *match is extended, Mario wins* SBAllen: It was too close to call and I wasn't ready for the next match yet because I didn't know who would be in it. |
i know its not technically correct, but Cloud with a stall. "L-Block 2007 Character Battle Champion" Always remember. "L-Block, shaped like a boot to kick your ass" |
LeonhartFour posted... *Cloud leads at 7 P.M.* This post made me laugh in real life. If I only consulted the Gossip Stones like BKSheikah, instead of listening to Tingle, maybe I could have been the 2017 Guru Champ! |
LeonhartFour posted... *Cloud leads at 7 P.M.* 6:59:59 PM ET. Cloud leads by 1 vote. Scene: A dark room, illuminated only by the dim light of a computer monitor. The GameFAQs homepage is displayed and the cursor clicks down on the Vote button, Mario chosen. A voice, off-camera, announces... ???: How long has it been? The work... it is finished. The camera continues to pan up the screen, stopping finally as it reaches the top line. CJayC 7:00:00 PM ET. Match concluded. Mario wins by 1. Registered users favor Mario by 1 vote. xp1337: Don't you wish there was a spell-checker that told you when you a word out? |

Almost 100 vote barrier. Mario has Cloud right where he wants him. |
Zelda has a Sheik and a toon Zelda picture? rip Zelda. |
Has Sheik ever been used before for Zelda? If all else fails use fire. |
Lmao such blatant pic bias. CorruptFAQs |
There
could be another Zelda picture hiding somewhere, but since I can only
find two foregrounds and 1 background for each character, I'm assuming
this is it. One would think you would throw in a traditional Zelda to balance the two odd choices, but it's not like attention to detail has been had at all in the pic selection process at all this year.

95 now. Come ON MISTER STRIFE ~Phoenix Nine~ ~Victory needs no explanation; defeat allows none.~ |
Oh geez. Zelda getting sabotaged. Think I want Cloud if I'm her. I've always been nervous about the rematch factor and that seriously isn't helping. xp1337: Don't you wish there was a spell-checker that told you when you a word out? |
Of
all the times that Mario has performed shenanigans to win, this is like
the only time I've wanted/needed him to win and he's going to fail me. When he beat Samus I didn't actually think I had a shot of winning so didn't care then (edited 12/12/2018 2:48:15 PM)report |
If
this were any other character, I'd say Cloud's lead should be safe at
this point since he's not actively facing a comeback and has been
gaining/stalling. but this damn plumber you'd have to knock an hour off the time remaining for me to feel good about cloud xp1337: Don't you wish there was a spell-checker that told you when you a word out? |
94
votes in 14 updates is a huge ask when both sides are only pulling ~40
an update. That's going to need Mario to have some huge spikes or start
lopping off consistently which he's showing no sign of doing |
That's why I said any other characters! But this guy! He could start breaking out 10-20 vote cuts out of nowhere and I'd be like "yeah of course he is" >_> xp1337: Don't you wish there was a spell-checker that told you when you a word out? |
Yeah those are some sabotage Zelda pics. Yikes. Black Turtle did a pretty good job. |
i thought Shiek was very popular in the Smash community? will that pick really hurt Zelda? "L-Block 2007 Character Battle Champion" Always remember. "L-Block, shaped like a boot to kick your ass" |
I'm
actually really curious about Sheik. I actually submitted one myself,
and I think there's potential for Sheik to be just as strong. Just, put it alongside an Ocarina or BotW Zelda, not Toon Zelda. 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 |
Is Sheik really pic sabotage when the site is riding on Smash high? "In this world you will have trouble. But take heart! I have overcome the world." - John 16:33 |
Guys it's Zelda you should be thrilled with sabotage at this point "undertale hangs out with mido" - ZFS Not changing this sig until CM Punk returns to the WWE |
Final hour and Cloud's lead isn't even over 100. Mario got this. :( Ngamer64: Zylo, you're making less sense every day. DpOblivion > Me |
Alright Cloud. 12 more of those and we're gold! "undertale hangs out with mido" - ZFS Not changing this sig until CM Punk returns to the WWE |
I'm just tired of this blatant FF7 domination. Wish someone would take Cloud down a peg BKSheikah, my hat is off to you. Welcome to the Guru Champions Club lol xstats |
Mario gained less than 100 votes on Sephiroth last hour these would need to be some really insane trend breaking shenaningans |
Captain_Sorzo posted... Is Sheik really pic sabotage when the site is riding on Smash high? Sheik has been a separate character for about a decade now. "The people who play Final Fantasy 7 actually have lives and dont NEED polls" ~MajinUltima BKSheikah won Guru, but you know that. |
