I almost never voted Batman until the final but he's probably my favorite in the field. I just didn't think he needed the help so never had to. Good winner. Good final 3 too.

Arguably Master Chief stalling/cutting while down 56-44 in a contest that doesn't have trends has almost already made it worth it to some extent but LET'S GO CHIEF

As someone who's beaten Final Fantasy VII 100% a few times I don't actually remember Vincent's backstory.

I just remember you had to go to the cave
It involved some woman named Lucretia, who I assume is his mother
I believe it involved Hojo?

I'm going to guess like Hojo was his father and caused his morphing by experiments or something but yeah to me it wasn't really that interesting, obviously.

Vincent is far and away the character I remember the least about 20 years after the fact. And I actually liked him more than a lot of the characters but yeah.

I'm not sure why Prima is the one that lasted longest. They were the worst.

I will eventually get some Lokis due to drawing for her because I want one with a decent nature on her, and then I'll probably use the Duel Skills on Matthew and Serra and rake with a good score, but before then yeah there's no point.

Lopen's Unofficial Analysis x4

Luigi vs Frog
Vincent held fairly well against Auron after Magus gave him trouble, so in theory Frog should probably hold alright here.

Too bad, Luigi time.

Luigi with 65.45%

Master Chief v Tails
That was probably the closest thing I'll do to a real analysis this entire contest. I feel so much believe right now.

Master Chief with 54.07%

Mewtwo v Tifa
Yeah throw me on the fraud bandwagon. Charizard held up decently well against Bowser but I think Mewtwo is probably even weaker than Charizard is. Doing reasonably well against GlaDOS was a mirage because GlaDOS should in theory be dropping too. I don't expect a total beatdown, but Tifa should win fairly decisively.

Tifa with 56.08%

Mega Man X v Ocelot
After seeing Quiet and The Boss get utterly murdered, I'm thinking Dedede holding against Ocelot was as much an indictment of Ocelot being weak as anything. With Mega Man X breaking 80% on that dog thing from animal crossing, and The Boss completely folding against Zelda, this is going to be ugly as hell.

Mega Man X with 73.26%

Then Drake is the only guy from a game released in the last 10 years that didn't fall off a cliff I guess?

I mean, I wouldn't trust it considering how badly Sully (and other modern guys like Ezio) got embarrassed and that none of the other Sonic characters really did all that well (Knuckles did "fine" I suppose) but if you wanna go that way, sure. I'm just saying people who believed in Master Chief to win the pack should still believe in him to win the pack because he looked fine in R1 and there's more evidence on the table to believe that Tails > Drake easily was a Drake drop than a Tails boost.

People who picked Drake to win the pack... shouldn't necessarily assume the match is going to vindicate Drake > Master Chief as a valid pick either. I would be very surprised if Drake outdid Chief. Drake's type of character has shown a lot more sign of dropping off than Master Chief did and the match has never been a great look for Drake to begin with, even for Chief's worst years.

I think if you took Tails to win the pack you should still feel confident in it, though. No real reason to doubt it unless you were banking on Chief dropping when you made the pick.

Drake has never looked stronger than Master Chief at any point, really. Drake isn't really the icon of the PS4 so it's not really an X-Box vs PS4 poll at all.

People were expecting Chief to drop off due to Halo not having a release in a while which is why there's popularity in the pick. If you don't think he looked like he dropped off in round 1 then you should still have confidence in Chief here.

Well Dante's got a lot of hammy dialogue that was "dated" when it came out which is kinda the point of him. He also has buckets of memorable scenes. He's kinda timeless in that way. You weren't a fan of Dante to begin with so your opinion isn't really relevant. If you found appeal to Dante at any point his appeal hasn't worn off with time.

Vincent kinda just looks cool. You find more guys that look cool as time goes on and he's more whatever.

the way I see it is that guys like Vincent and Magus are the type of characters where you go like "uhhhh I thought they were cool when I was younger but I don't really remember why" especially if you haven't played their game in a long time (as I imagine is the case with many voters)


I think this is closer to the right idea. Badasses who basically just float on their design are going to tank as there's more and more time between their heyday and the now. Badasses that have a bit more to them like Auron or Dante, not so much.

Lucina being as strong or stronger than Marth is very possible. She definitely gets a lot more from the Fire Emblem side of the equation than Marth does and she's in Smash too now. I would guess she probably is a bit stronger. Fire Emblem Awakening is not token. Tharja and Chrom show us that it's enough to make you high fodder at base without even considering Smash.

Aether battles are a bit more complicated than they should be for sure. The tutorials are kinda bad. Just poke around the battles and building menus a bit. The key is that you kill the enemy team without dying, and killing the two aether structures are stretch goals to get an aether refund.

But I think I like this. Wait. I like this?

That's not how new modes are supposed to be.

Dwarves: good at being blacksmiths

yeah, but is that innate, or just a cultural thing

it's like how stereotypically, elves love the forest, while dwarves love being underground; but maybe that's not so much innate inclination as just being comfortable in your childhood home. you gotta wonder how it turns out if, say, a family of dwarves adopts an elf (and the elf isn't pressured to conform to traditional elf norms). does the elf grow up dissatisfied, restless, yearning for nature and sunlight? or does he grow up, like his siblings, to be a boss blacksmith with a moderate case of agoraphobia?

If the thing is damage control then it's better for tails to win because less gurus have him than Chief.

I mean, for those who have Nathan winning R2 like I do.


Nah people who have Drake winning would rather Tails win because then at least then they were less wrong. Feels better when Tails got a boost out of nowhere than to say your pick to win the four pack just sucked.

Yeah UBW Anime Series, which is the only Fate property anime that Archer's been in that people actually like, came out in 2014-2015.

Saber probably is more interesting though even if Archer's better. She was in Fate/Zero as well which would give her even more coverage.

I'm actually on the fence with Auron vs Sub-Zero. Pretty sure I voted Sub-Zero last time but this time I'm feeling Auron. Would probably come down to the pic.

Scorpion would be an auto-vote though so there's at least a small difference there.

Let's see... now just because I'm interested... going into match histories.

Both > Kazuya Mishima
Scorpion > Max Payne > Sub-Zero
Scorpion > Pac-Man > Sub-Zero
Both > Link
Scorpion > Zero > Sub-Zero (because of math)
Scorpion > Auron >= Sub-Zero
Both > Sora + Aya Brea
Scorpion > Balthier > Sub-Zero > Big Daddy + Gordon Freeman
Scorpion > Kratos Aurion > Sub-Zero > Midna + 47
Both > Samus + Frog + Midna
Scorpion > Mega Man > Sub-Zero > Yoshi + Samus

Master Chief > Both
Tidus > Both
Both > Roxas
Both > Sonic + PoP + Viewtiful Joe
Scorpion > Duke Nukem > Sub-Zero
Squall > Both

Rydia > Both > Marcus Fenix
Both > Sandbag
Both > Frank West + Garrus
Both > Bowser + The Boss

Both > Shulk
Both > Claire
Both > Pikachu

Sorry for the wall of inequalities I didn't realize it would take so long. But now that I've done it and have revealed that I'm full of crap and there are a ton of characters that fit in between the gap (mostly in Scorpion's matches) I must post it.

Sub-Zero has always been a decent way above Scorpion for whatever reason. Scorp had some decent results in the four way contests and not much else.

I've always been a Scorpion guy myself but yeah. Hard to argue Sub-Zero isn't a good way ahead of him.

But saying Claire is being super pic screwed isn't damage control it's just the truth.
