I think that the odds of a second Undertale rally are really low 5 years after its release.

Ultimate has the LAW on its side. It can only lose to other LAW games.

But Odyssey has the Mario T-Rex, maaaan!

Undertale/Octopath is the ultimate “Do I vote for you for being good or do I anti-vote you to death” match.
It's an honor being part of Board 8's community.
As someone who used that XC/DKC2 match to pick Xenoblade..... yeah.

So is anyone taking Tekken 7 to beat MK11?

Its a better fighter for me but on this site? hell no. MK is way more popular than Tekken.

Odyssey might just be the favourite against Smash right now.

I took DK but I'll be happy with this loss. Love playing as Nero so much.

DMC5 isn't that great. I really don't get the hype around it. Only one of the characters is fun to play as, it's repetitive, and the gold gems make the game really unbalanced.

I mean, when it's good, it's REAL good, but those moments are few and far between.

Not that it changes the result but Shovel Knight is dropping like a rock.

Odyssey > Ultimate would be so shocking to me. I've internalized the rule that non-64 3D Mario games are always way weaker than you'd expect.

Tumblr could still be alive and noone would give a s***. Undertale had just come out and it was a meme.

oh s***.

Also Shovel Knight tanking percentage right now is slightly concerning to me.

LeonhartFour 3/31/2020 5:24:30 PM#69
also I could see modern MK being about as useless as Tekken

the last few entries have been well received but they won't be as popular as the first three games
MoogleKupo141 3/31/2020 5:24:30 PM#70
it’s too bad Tekken 7 didn’t get into any of the GOTY polls the year it came out so we have no real idea of anything about it strengthwise
For your BK_Sheikah00.

eh I think it's still the decisive favorite next round regardless

if Undertale pulls this out the anti-voting will hurt it a lot more next round

if Octopath wins it won't be artificially boosted by Undertale anti-votes

You can go by anticipated polls

Basically gives us an indication of the fans

KH3 beat RE2 in "Most wanted games for January 2019" only to lose to the same game when asked about GOTY so far 3 months later.

MOst anticipated is a good indicator of a franchises pull on here.

I don't think Undertale is gonna rally, but I still think it's gonna come out on top. I don't think Octopath has any lasting power.

Also to those wondering how DMCV could beat DKTF

DKTF is a Wii U Game. Its not all that strong.

DMCV is below the likes of Sekiro and Red Dead 2 as well. The only DK game worth a damn is DKC2.
I'm not sure why so many if you were high Tropical Freeze. It was always going to be several orders of magnitude worse than DKC2, which only looked alright in a year of SNES dominance
If you're only on this board to whine about "SJWs", please redirect whatever you type on to the nearest trash can. And hop in after it.
Wow, the Undertale subreddit has fewer active users than the Danganronpa subreddit. I don't think they're going to bail the game out.
Advokaiser is the man. Congrats!
I have a hard time seeing Tekken substantially ahead of MK, or even likely to be ahead at all.
I just decided to change this sig.
Blaaaaaaargh Advokaiser

it didn't have to be anywhere close to DKC2 to beat DMC5!
Gogogo Octopath! I'll be happy to lose that point (either way though I'm feeling much better about my Shovel Knight pick next round).

On the other hand DK screws me yet again!
Congrats to Advokaiser for winning the CBX Guru Challenge!

No. I'm sure everyone thought it was going to suck.

What are Undertale's trends, even? We never got to see what they were.

I don't think it's a guarantee it does worse in the early game than with the later voters, anyway.

but MK11 and Tekekn 7 were received abotu equally. its not about finding out strength its about finding out the fanbase of those franchises on this site. To give us an indication of "fan support"

MK has historically been more relevant in these contests be it characters or games. Thats a fact.

So using that as Data its sensible to assume MK11 would beat Tekken 7 in a 1v1 Poll.

yes we would all assume that because MK historically is stronger than Tekken

but it means nothing as far as gauging how strong the individual games are

If this is how you guys react to Undertale still 5 years later, whenever another rally happens it'll feed off your anger again. Nothing has changed.

And Had MEA been an amazing game it would have been #2 GOTY that year behind BOTW.

Thats the point. MK11 and Tekken 7 weren't abysmal games people hated.
