Great to see DMC handing DKC its ass. There were some really sassy folks on this board calling me an idiot for doubting a third rate Wii U exclusive Donkey Kong side game

MK11 is great and all, but was it really fair to seed it against SMO? C’mon.

This. I was so let down when I saw this in the bracket.

yes Pokemon was beating it too

it was never going to hold

Pokemon beat it from the get go just like every game that had faced it. Melee got a massive rally and trumped undercard mid way through. Undertales votals in that match were bizarre. All from one country as well.

I'm not sure where you could put MK11 in this bracket where a game that polled less than Crash Team Racing would look respectable.
Black Turtle did a pretty good job.

Undertale winning each of its matches was as obvious as today's match.

Definitely not going very far regardless of where it’s seeded, but still, 2 wins is perfectly viable. Or would have been if it wasn’t against SMO.

The fact that it has even 10% is weird as hell.

Undertale didn't go a good job against RBY. It didn't start its rally until halfway through the day and it only took the lead four hours before the match ended.

Undertale v Melee was a rally battle, pretty much the only one we've ever seen, so I don't think that was a guaranteed call either.
Black Turtle did a pretty good job.

I think the litany of blowouts we've seen in the past few days have shown we're kinda scraping the bottom of the barrel here.

EDIT: Oh you meant in comparison to MK9/10. Recency I guess.

It's actually indeed the least popular and I have no idea why it made the contest over MKX, which was universally praised.

Allen for some reason limited entries to one or two games. For most of the lesser franchises...1 game.

I refuse to beleive MK11 got more nominations than MK9.

Undertale's matches were never on the level of Draven.

https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/poll/5227-character-battle-ix-division-1-round-2-draven-vs-ryu-vs-x

I think you could reasonably look at this and say that we were always screwed against Draven. Undertale's rally never reached that height and had some closeish calls.
Black Turtle did a pretty good job.

Considering i've got Undertale losing to MArio in my bracket i don't really care. IF anything this shows how weak Undertale is now. Its reassuring because i predicted Undertale to win with over 60% and be a strong game.

The fact that its going toe to toe with a 2nd rate Switch JRPG shows how far its fallen.

and yet the Draven matches somehow ended up being way more exciting than anything Undertale did outside of the crazy comeback against ME3

MK11 was the one with the single player stuff that was always online, right? Like I think it was called Towers of Time. I remember people complaining a lot about that while I don't recall people complaining that much about MK10. But maybe I'm just wrong here.

Link/Draven was the only good Draven match. Draven/Snake was interesting until reddit pinned the match. Then it was over.

Undertale/Melee was fascinating at the time. We've never seen two large-scale rallies having a slapfight and we never will again.

David Hayter rallying for Snake and it actually working to the point that Draven supporters literally lied to the mods to get the rally thread pinned was super fascinating

Snake actually made them sweat

MK11 had a lot of loot box and live service related controversy when it came out. Game has a 3.3 user score on Metacritic lmao

I forgot about David Hayter rallying against the draggy cow. That was pretty amazing, yes.

Octopath busts out that 56% hopekiller update I was waiting for, and Dragon's Dogma gets a 40% update. Still a good result for Shovel Knight but it's looking way worse than it did at the start.

Also I don’t remember that detail - how did Draven supporters lie?
