LeonhartFour 08/19/18 3:20:26 PM #253 | Undertale would still have to climb a long ways in popularity to go from 37% on Mass Effect 3 to being equal with Witcher 3. I mean, I'm sure it's more popular now just due to the exposure it got from 2015, but I wouldn't give it quite that much credit. --- |

LeonhartFour 08/19/18 2:59:04 PM #249 | I wouldn't take the individual console polls to mean that much because the performances are wildly inconsistent between platforms. Bloodborne stomped Witcher 3 in the PS4 poll, for instance. (also Undertale having a lot of overlap with Nintendo doesn't make any sense) --- |
Topic | Contest Stats and Discussion - Part 1280 |
LeonhartFour 08/19/18 2:49:10 PM #246 | Yeah, I wouldn't expect Undertale to actually repeat that performance. --- |

LeonhartFour 08/19/18 2:24:43 PM #244 | Oh, there's no question Melee will rally at any given opportunity, which is why I don't actually look forward to any future Games Contests (except for a GotD2, I guess). at least with Character Battles rallies are mostly just guesswork --- |

LeonhartFour 08/19/18 2:23:34 PM #208 | xp1337 posted... but it feels so weird for an AoT opening. didn't you like ED2 though xp1337 posted... Also, Leon, since I suspect however you're watching this (Funimation?) is tied to the Toonami schedule, get ready to get episode 2 next week and then have a week off because of Labor Day. it's the worst. or i dunno maybe i'm wrong and you just end up a week ahead of me but i feel like season 2 and toonami were synced. yeah I'm sure they'll be on the same release schedule --- |

LeonhartFour 08/19/18 1:38:56 AM #235 | Akuma finished well ahead of Geno in a 4-way in 2007. https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/poll/2891-division-8-round-1-aeris-akuma-geno-squall I mean I guess you could argue that he got SFF'd or something since Squall and Aerith were in the same poll, but I don't think it'd matter much. I suppose you could argue Akuma had the standout factor, but they've got 1-on-1 matches against Squall where Akuma comes out way ahead, too. (seriously Allen be more original with your Squall matchups; he's faced Cloud, Snake, and Sora way too much, too) --- |

Only a general Games Contest will be able to provide this match to us. and it's not like it would matter because the superiority/inferiority complex of Melee fans would immediately cause them to rally if it were in any way close ZenOfThunder posted... Geno vs Akuma 2018 who wins I'd take Akuma in pretty much any year --- |

LeonhartFour 08/18/18 5:55:59 PM #224 | Melee was going to get 65/35'd like FFX did, which would mean...it's pretty much still where it was in 2004. It would beat Brawl now, but that's more about Brawl than Melee. --- |
Topic | Contest Stats and Discussion - Part 1280 |
LeonhartFour 08/18/18 5:50:09 PM #220 | Nah, Melee's natural strength probably hasn't changed all that much over the years. Unrallied Melee was only worth 55% on KH2 in 2015. --- |

LeonhartFour 08/17/18 12:46:22 AM #457 | Well, Mega Man's 2004 performance obscured things, too, when he underperformed drastically against Link. The sheer amount of SFF and weird overperformances in SC2K4 in general threw us off. People also thought Frog's 2004 run validated Magus's strength. --- |
Topic | ~*~Zen Anal-yzes the Summer 2013 Contest - 5 Years Too Late Edition~*~ |
LeonhartFour 08/17/18 12:38:29 AM #455 | I did some pretty thorough research to argue for Squall > Magus in 2005 and came to the conclusion that the dude had been overrated all along, although even I didn't anticipate him being that overrated. Yeah, it was the 35% on Link that was hard to overlook, but we didn't totally understand the bandwagon effect back then either. It's pretty clear that when the site perceives that a character/game has pulled a big upset or two (even when we as a board actually expected it to happen), the site gets behind the underdog. A couple of other things fooled us, too. Ganondorf probably boosted between 2003 and 2004 due to Twilight Princess hype, and Tidus/Shadow seemed to validate their 2003 numbers by having the 50/50 match the stats predicted, somehow pulling off the unlikely coincidence of both of them being equally overrated. --- |

LeonhartFour 08/16/18 6:08:22 PM #193 | Mac Arrowny posted... I think Leon usually hates it when there's a baseball or other sports episode in something like Haruhi or FMP, so he wouldn't like regular sports anime. I mean, if he actually liked those episodes there'd be a chance, but he doesn't, so eh. I mean, they're okay in moderation. I don't dislike those episodes, but they certainly aren't my favorite and I wasn't clamoring for more of them. BK_Sheikah00 posted... LeonhartFour posted...I tend not to care much about fictional sports. It'd have to be pretty spectacular. I can only play blitzball in moderation, too. It's weird though. I used to love to play sports games growing up. I wonder when I stopped enjoying them. --- |

LeonhartFour 08/16/18 4:56:29 PM #439 | I don't think the Mario fanbase is apathetic either. Mario 3, Mario World, and Mario 64 are all probably top 10-15 games here. Heck, Super Mario RPG won its division in 2015 and beat some pretty popular games in the process despite having virtually zero European presence. But like FF and Zelda, the new games aren't as popular as the classics (well, we'll see about Odyssey and BotW, I guess). --- |

LeonhartFour 08/16/18 4:33:44 PM #428 | Sunshine has looked bad in just about every poll it's ever been in, so it definitely leans more toward just plain disliked. Heck, even in the year it came out, it got utterly obliterated by Metroid Prime in GotY polls. --- |
