Remember when every contest would have Knuckles vs. Snake in the second round, seemingly for the hell of it? Agent Triple Zero at your service! This line reserved for the true greatone, the 2020 Guru contest winner. |
This was Knuckles' worst of the three. Guinness Book of World Records is the name of the diary that belongs to Advokaiser, the winner of the Character Battle X guru contest. |

Bloodborne had a huge update there. Lead change probably next update. Guinness Book of World Records is the name of the diary that belongs to Advokaiser, the winner of the Character Battle X guru contest. |
this is interesting because, as more voters wake up , RE2's natural strength being higher will start to become more relevant but on the other hand the BB subreddit will also just get more active during the day. |
I
have a hard time seeing RE2 take this right now. I think Bloodborne has
quite a bit fuel if needed and a remake is probably among the harder
games left to rally for. And I'd think P4G and HGSS would be easier on
top of that. Guinness Book of World Records is the name of the diary that belongs to Advokaiser, the winner of the Character Battle X guru contest. (edited 4/21/2020 3:08:18 AM)report |
All I want for xmas is ME2 vs Skyrim Hardest man on gameFAQs |
Given
where the rally upvotes are now compared to the last Bloodborne rally,
this is pretty much over. It got 800+ upvotes last time and is in the
200s now. It still has far too much steam for RE2 to swing this back. What probably hurt RE2 more was the match starting late so it not having a bigger lead before the rally kicked in. Rally is going to be big enough for it to not matter but would have at least made things more interesting |
ME is kinda laying a huge egg here but i suppose Horizon might be overperforming due to some sort of PS4 exclusive fanbase? |
tie |
Tie! Guinness Book of World Records is the name of the diary that belongs to Advokaiser, the winner of the Character Battle X guru contest. |
Rallies won't be interesting if you know the rallied game will win anyway |

the rally is now the number one topic on the subreddit |
the BB subreddit is actually becoming less active...there were 1k+ people througout the night, now only 850. (edited 4/21/2020 3:41:41 AM)report |

And I'd think P4G and HGSS would be easier on top of that. Maybe it has just enough fuel to get close enough for those two hours to have mattered.

that 70% update though |

ZeldaTPLink posted... Maybe it has just enough fuel to get close enough for those two hours to have mattered.I don’t think the two hours really matter right now. Bloodborne is going to have a huge lead by the time it’s done, and the rally was going to happen regardless when the match started. Allen still deserves a little bit of shade for putting himself in a position where not having the correct start time could impact the results of the match, but I think he dodges that bullet for now.

Well my bracket is officialy dead now with Bloodborne winning. But the real question is would RE2 won without rallies? So why we exist? What happens when we stop existing? |
handsomeboy2012 posted... The rally was locked Oh s*** this is potentially huge. If we assume RE2 is naturally stronger, it can absolutely make up the lost votes. The final Undisputed Champion in UCA history. |
thats really weird that they'd lock this rally but not the one before i think someone here might have reported it falsely lol |
great report imo The final Undisputed Champion in UCA history. |

Pretty sure RE2 cut a single vote on that last update, so the locked rally thread is already making a difference. The final Undisputed Champion in UCA history. |
COMEBACK TIME oh ya The final Undisputed Champion in UCA history. |
Big RE2 cut. You love to see it. I just decided to change this sig. Blaaaaaaargh Advokaiser |
RE2 made a solid cut there. We have a match! Guinness Book of World Records is the name of the diary that belongs to Advokaiser, the winner of the Character Battle X guru contest. |
ctesjbuvf posted... RE2 made a solid cut there. We have a match!The rally is dead, RE can go back to winning with 52%. This is over. |
You
have to think the BB fans will attempt more rallies throughout the day
and hope they don't get taken down. If not, RE2 will run away with it. |
Yeah, and I do think they will do that. Guinness Book of World Records is the name of the diary that belongs to Advokaiser, the winner of the Character Battle X guru contest. |
I suggest anyone who wants RE2 to win to repport those rallies as soon as you see them. |
Well, this match was close before rallies, so I guess we'll see some stalling. Guinness Book of World Records is the name of the diary that belongs to Advokaiser, the winner of the Character Battle X guru contest. |
can't wait for ulti's post contest analysis on this one, i am expecting at least 10k words (|| ' ' ||) drooling while eating . /|_|\ |
'Salty b8ers reporting rallies' |
Is the RE2 rally gaining traction or just people starting to wake up that didn't vote right away? That update was huge Guinness Book of World Records is the name of the diary that belongs to Advokaiser, the winner of the Character Battle X guru contest. |
I think there might be some people who went to sleep when the start was delayed and are only voting now |
Has there been any confirmation about this match ending on time and it just being not a full 24 hours? The final Undisputed Champion in UCA history. |
Can
somebody link me to the leaderboard page? I voted on my phone when I
woke up, so I clicked the X on my computer to make the match disappear
in order to not accidentally vote again, and now I can't actually get to
any of those pages easily. The final Undisputed Champion in UCA history. |

People just go to reddit now everytime there's a close match? How petty. I thought rallies were suposed to be funny |

I thought rallies were suposed to be funnyHow on earth is "hurrrr durrrr I asked people to vote in these stupid contests like a giant sorry" ever funny? It should be pretty telling that the biggest manchild on the board seems to be the only person universally in favour of rallies, and everyone else only supports them when the outcome is in their favour (or when they're a sad basement dwelling turbovirgin rooting for anime t******) "Like Darth Maul, the bastard child of Michael Flatley and hellboy" - trancer1 lol xstats |
