There's no room in BFVQE for jokes.

Also I did like "Fuck"
Fuck was great because it went against Bitch. I enjoy the themes, even though we are deprived of a Bullet vs. Gun match.

An HD re-release for Skies would probably help Vyse a lot.
Hopefully with a sped up battle system, because I'm not sure people would tolerate 30 second one turn battles these days.

It's odd to see Division 4 end the way it did, as the Vita never did anything notable in past polls while the Wii was known for the phrase "LOL WII" in the last Game of the Decade contest. To see a Wii game beat a Vita game so far in the contest is not something I expected, and judging by the prediction percentage, not many did either.
Persona 4 Golden isn't exactly your typical Vita game, since it's also a very late PS2 release, and there's no reason to think that people didn't just treat the two games as identical entries.

Granted, this division coming down to a PS2/Vita vs. Wii/"New" 3DS finals itself was bizarre in a completely different context.

(By the way am I blind or just dumb? Did yoblazer not enter the guru that year?)
He did not. We had a little bit of discussion on this when I was on The Show, and I believe we concluded that he may very well be in the number 1 slot, if we did account for his missing entries.

(However, there are other gurus near the top that are also missing entries, so there is a very slippery slope involved in taking this step, and considering there is an unofficial prize element to the Guru with sig bets and nominations at stake that could no longer be redeemed, it makes sense not to do that, but unofficially recognize that he's really good at doing this.)

Well, part of it is that Kefka doesn't suck anymore! That was his last bad result for whatever the reason.

He didn't do that great in 2018. Peach finished above Kefka in the stats despite having a common opponent.

Either way, GTA would still love to be going 50/50 with Kefka's worst historical value where he looked like cabbage and got sliced up by Crono.

Hey now neither one of them dropped a nail biter against Kefka! They both beat him!

Perhaps the biggest blight on Kefka's record is that he finished 4th in Marth/Duke/Niko/Kefka
See, I remembered it as Niko taking fourth place in that match, but I forgot it was Kefka that took last.

They'd still kill to barely lose to him now, though. And I don't think Michael/Trevor/Franklin would land ahead of them by much, if it all, despite GTAV being good for now.

Vyse was what came to mind.

But I know it's not 2004.

In terms of games, Minecraft landed right below 20% on Breath of the Wild, and it's one of those games everyone knows. So, it's perfect for the idea of "you're fodder if you can't beat Minecraft."

GTA is up there in the decline. Putting GTA V being respectable this year aside for a second, the protagonists used to be decent midcarders on par with with the likes of Kefka and Ness. Damning praise, I know. But you look at 2013 where Vercetti got embarassed in the Trash Bandicoot match, a match he would have once taken with ease. Niko was an afterthought against a horse and and an alien. They would kill to be dropping nail-biters with Kefka again.

And you know GTAV is going to have no staying power when VI comes out.

Tekken 7 > Mortal Kombat 11 isn't that crazy. Among fighting fans that's the result I would expect. Of course, this is GameFAQs where fighting games are weak so it's not impossible that Mortal Kombat would "name recognition" its way to victory.
Considering both are behind Nintendo juggernauts, it stands to reason that the title that relies less on name recognition is going to be stronger. Tekken 7 is more beloved by fighting game enthusiasts than MK11, so it stands to reason that it would hold up better.

Dunno why anyone would expect more than 'solid midcard' status unless it caught fire and won a tight match. Nier and DQXI stand out as some of the most middle-of-the-pack games we could get in a balanced games bracket; good enough to put a show on decent fodder, then bow out respectfully in Round 3 or so. Always felt that Nier would only win due to Pokemon's weakness and not its own strength.
Pretty much. I was perplexed when talk of HG/SS over Skyrim escalated over the break, when I never would have considered NieR a threat to Skyrim. Now if Pokemon had dominated NieR, it would be a different story, but 52/48 was closer to "well, I don't feel like a moron for being eliminated from the Guru contest over this result" than anything else.

I thought NieR was a good upset to take if you thought 2B's performance in 2018 might translate to her game, and how much you thought HG/SS might lose in strength for being a remaster of a 2000 game.

Honestly, if you just told everyone NieR's eventual xstat value before the contest began, it would have probably been the Guru favorite. It's just that HG/SS didn't lose much at all.

(9) Knuckles - I'm not sure why we need to snap Knuckles' streak of beating unique Square characters just to have an utterly predictable rematch, though.
Is it that predictable? I mean, they landed really close to each other in the 2018 stats, with Magus taking the lead depending on which value for Sonic you think is more accurate (thanks double elimination bracket). Plus, it's the first day of the contest assuming four matches a day, so you'll be missing some casual votes. And while brackets will probably be for Knux, I think the board would probably go crazy for a Magus win, so a close match would be Magus's to lose.

To me the worst part is Byleth actually isn't a Marth (semi-)clone. And is actually pretty fun. So it made the annoying crying that much worse.
I haven't spent a ton of time in Smash since Byleth came out, but I know they don't play like of any of the other Fire Emblem characters. That's not a valid criticism in the slightest.

Division 6
(1) Mega Man

Divison 7
(1) Mario

Division 8
(1) Samus

Quarterfinals

(2) Sephiroth (FF7 Remake is going to be a bit of a game changer. I think it might help Sephiroth reclaim his spot in the hierarchy even though the whole cast benefits.)

(1) Cloud Strife (Zelda won't have quite the bandwagon this time around, which is what helped her run through winner's bracket. She's still an elite tier, but maybe towards the lower end. Also depends on where we are with FF7 Remake vs. BotW 2.)

(1) Link

(1) Samus (Keeping this one, though. If there's any activity in the Metroid series, it will only help Samus. Meanwhile, Odyssey came and went and Mario still almost lost, which is why I thought Odyssey > Smash was a little wild.)

Semi-finals

(1) Cloud Strife

(1) Link

WINNER

(1) Link (FF7Remake's remaining parts would all have to live up to the hype enormously to change the tides here, while Nintendo would need to fuck up the Switch's successor and BotW2 to have a chance at ever losing a non-rally match again)

The one thing I will say in a sort of defense here to the community, Byleth had no business being the last character of the pack announced. You can't throw out third-party bombshell after third-party bombshell four times in a row, and then go back to the Fire Emblem well for the fifth and final one and expect it to go over well. Byleth should have been like the second or third one announced.

That being said, what really stunk for Three Houses is that all we know about Pack 2 is that the first one is an ARMS character, which is going to be even more deflating, so the timing was pretty bad. All will be forgiven when they announce the next third-party character or Geno or whoever the next bombshell fighter is going to be. It just didn't come soon enough for Three Houses here.

Silent Hill and Duck Hunt stand out.
Duck Hunt really isn't that surprising. Divisions by era was very convenient for it to make contests, since it would easily get more nominations than a lot of its contemporaries from that time, but then it probably gets stuck against something with a bigger name that would SFF it to the ground, like Mario. It's only real shot was Donkey Kong in 04, and it just couldn't get the job done.

These days, it's just not going to get the nominations to make a 128 games bracket sans restrictions. Maybe if we expanded Game of the 90s to something like '85-'99, it might have a chance, but I opted to push for '90-'99 when suggesting a retro contest because I always feared we'd get more bad fodder from that time period than we would get games worth the trouble.

Rayman was also one of the Playstation's first big exclusives, and that was huge for Europe where Nintendo never dominated the market. Think to how other big Playstation games like from the other platformers like Crash and Spyro clean up there, all the way up to Final Fantasy VII.

Final Fantasy VII | Ocarina of Time (OoT dropped early in 2004, and I don't think it makes up the difference in 2015)

Final Fantasy X | Super Smash Bros. Melee (This one's tough, but I think FFX gains more from making the finals of the 2009 contest than it loses from exiting 2015 in Round 3.)

Super Mario Bros. 3 | Super Mario World | Super Mario 64 (Another tough one, but Mario 64 is probably the most consistent of the 90s Mario standouts in terms of exiting points)

Undertale | Starcraft (Undertale's rallies were huge, but Starcraft had a decent sized rally itself, and a couple extra contest appearances to boot)

Metroid Prime | Super Metroid (Prime has been consistently better, particularly at avoiding SFF, though Super Metroid is probably the stronger game now. Oh, and it's got a GotD apperance as well)

Final Fantasy VI | The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker (Again, a GotD appearance is going to make a huge difference here)

The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion | The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim (Both were in different GotDs, but even though Skyrim went further in GotD and in 2015, Oblivion's 2009 appearances are what makes the difference for me)

Super Smash Bros. Brawl | Pokemon RBY (Brawl being in every round of GotD is huge, while RBY got cut short in 2015)

The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past | Chrono Trigger (Chrono Trigger going out early in 09 whereas LttP making the finals makes up for any contests CT outlasted LttP)

Metal Gear Solid 1 | Metal Gear Solid 3 | Resident Evil 4 (I think MGS3 outlasted RE4 in GotD and 2015, so I don't think it's RE4. The question is whether or not MGS got more votes in 2004 than MGS3 did in 2010 and the additional match in 2015, and I think MGS3 likely did)

The Legend of Zelda | The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask (This one feels like a trap. The thing is, Majora's early exit in 2009 when votals were high makes this closer than it should be. LoZ made it further in that contest, and made the division finals in 2004 when Majora was on the sidelines. But since then, LoZ has been inactive while Majora won GotD1 and participated in 2015. That said, I'd be willing to take Majora's Mask if it made a couple extra rounds in 2015, but it didn't.)

Fallout 3 | Super Mario RPG (Making the semis in GotD was more lucrative than making the semis in 2015. SMRPG has a couple extra early round matches to play with, but I don't think that's quite enough to make the difference.)

Metal Gear Solid 2 | Shadow of the Colossus (I don't remember what MGS2 did in 2009, but it's got to be better than SotC's Round 1 exit, which is where there's potential for MGS2 to make up the disparsity that SotC would have built in its GotD run)

Final Fantasy VIII | Final Fantasy IX (I can't remember what FFIX did in 2009, but it went further in 2015 and has a GotD appearance.)

I'm sure I'm wrong on a bunch of these since I didn't try too hard to look for trap options, and I feel like I used the extra GotD appearance a bit too much to justify some of these picks.

I remember that one fondly because I correctly predicted Crash to win!

and yet I still didn't pick Crash to beat Cecil in 2018 what is wrong with me

we really need to try to get Rydia in again because she has legit looked stronger than Cecil in both of her losses
When I did the tier rankings for Zen's Tiermaker thing, Crash legitimately ended up in the Trash tier just because of that awful result. There's is only a few contest results that actively get me salty, and it's up there with Melee vs. Chrono Trigger.

Has Super mario RPG won anything?
Put some respect on the greatest game to ever advance to the Final Four of the contest.

also Portal actually has had three NPCs

did you forget Wheatley lost to Crash Bandicoot in 2013?

because I did until just now!
I wish I had forgotten that utter trash result.

Man, 2013 had so many weird characters in it.

It had three Isaacs in it and they all sucked.
Only one of them ended up in last place, though.

it feels like there were one million random Touhou characters one year but it may have just been two
Three. Marisa, Cirno, and Reimu.

oh also Super Smash Bros. 2 NPCs (Sandbag and Master Hand) have been in, but there has never been a single playable Smash Bros. character in a contest.
Objection. Master Hand is actually playable as of Ultimate.

Random question: are there any games besides FF5 and Portal/Portal 2 to have at least two NPCs make the contest, but never any of the playable characters? (Although both Bartz and Chell made Rivalry Rumble)
Animal Crossing, I guess

Hmm...It probably comes close. Squall, Vivi, and Auron probably aren't enough to balance out FFIV, FFVI, FFXII, FFXIII, and FFXV sucking, although they haven't had a ton of entrants.

I'd be curious to see what percentage of FF's total matches are just FFVII.
It's the only franchise to lose to a hand twice.

looking it up, Ryu is +7. I dont remember off hand how many random SF characters have made the contest before, but I dont think any of them have winning records (Chun is -1)
The only one I can recall with a win would be Bison and Ken.

It's probably not Ace Attorney due to Edgeworth stinking up the joint every year.

Only Teemo

I mean, he got a 5 seed in 2018 with not really a whole lot going for him back then.

He'd probably need something to completely usurp Halo's spot in the Xbox Sci-Fi shooter realm to be knocked out completely.

I'd feel pretty good about FFVII and OoT finishing first and second. CT got knocked out relatively early in 2009 and 2015, and Melee got knocked out early in 2009 and 2010. FFVII and OoT getting to the finals in 2009 (which had the highest vote totals by a heck of a lot) would probably make the difference.

Actually, I'd probably take FFX and LttP to round out the top 5 (or 6, because maybe CT finishes ahead of them anyway) because of that.
I think Melee has to be up there, because while Melee went out relatively early in two contests, it still has one extra contest appearance over FF7 and OoT.

FFX should also finish pretty high due to GotD as well, and going far in 2009 probably means more than losing in Round 3 to CT in 2015.

I know everyone was really, really curious where I had M. Bison on my tierlist, so I updated it. Stop flooding my PMs everyone.
