If all these results hold true, Gold Star of the Day goes to Xenoblade. People actually care about Splatoon to some degree and it's getting crushed.

Ori is winning? My poor bracket...

Yeah, but I could see some sort of Nintendo console SFF going on here.
WRPGs have generally had very terrible board votes in past contests, so Dragon Age was expected to look bad early on. But it's still close enough that it can recover from its board vote and take the lead at some point in this match.

Not just console, straight Nintendo SFF.

lol wut

Splatoon is probably one of the weakest games in the bracket

On the plus side, Overwatch over Fire Emblem is looking pretty solid right about now, shame about Dragon Age

Xenoblade still going up, and Dragon Age is freefalling after the always strong WRPG board vote is fading.

Eh I’d say it’s more likely this site just doesn’t care about Splatoon much so it’s hard to tell what kind of strength it has over a JRPG
LeonhartFour 4/2/2020 5:15:59 PM#366
If Bioware properties are tainted this much by their recent efforts, it's getting even harder to see Mass Effect 2 winning its division.

Mass Effect 3 is very lucky it got a friggin' Blizzard game.

Gold Star of the day goes to Ori, Xenoblade winning was never in doubt but DA:I was the favorite in that match
Patience.
Gotta say, an even 55.55% always looks appealing, even considering the -1 it will do to my bracket.

South Park had a modicum of strength once upon a time, but people who rolled with Three Houses > Xenoblade are not going to happy with this result regardless.

(Except me, gogo Xenoblade)

I mean, Dragon Age has always been a thoroughly average series in contests.

not to excuse this performance but I'm not entirely sure this reflects poorly on ME2 quite yet

Awesome job making sure we discuss Ori on the podcast! This man KNEW.

I've always felt whatever gets out of the bottom half would take down Mass Effect 2. It's very much a "what have you done for me lately" situation, and the fact that ME2 is going in there cold while the winner of the bottom half has to win two close ones gives it that little extra momentum.

Can't wait to see Mass Effect 3 underperform against *checks bracket*

Starcraft 2? Yeah, I could see it somehow dropping that

did anyone actually care about Starcraft 2 though?

I mean I guess they did since it's in the contest at all but man I never heard anyone talk about it
They cared about how disappointing it was, yes.

No one cares about Starcraft 2. As a big player of most of blizzard's games, Overwatch is fairly beloved in the community - Starcraft 2 was DoA <_<

Yeah, ME3 was rife for upset potential, but Starcraft 2 is the absolute one game that I could never see being able to take advantage.

Nah, Octopath is officially the strongest according to the stats

Props to everyone who bet on Ori, that was a damn decent upset pick.

Still need to play that game sometime, it looks great.
The music was thud-like.

Give me more of those 83% Xenoblade updates.

So as someone who has Persona 4 > Xenoblade division finals in this division I can work with this.

Xenoblade stomps this half.

Persona skins the other half.

RPG priority in the division final.

My bracket is already doomed but let's do this...!

congrats to BKSheikah the BYIG guru
LadyVyxx 4/2/2020 5:27:46 PM#399
Hot take

Ori beating DA might just be due to the fact that DA is ass
Hollow Knight/FF15 was already questionable the moment the comparison was made that Berseria had to get like 63% on Editch Finch for the match to be in doubt. I'm pretty sure a paper clip could double Edith Finch.
Black Turtle did a pretty good job.
