| LeonhartFour 12/17/18 11:03:45 PM #263 | transience posted... It might be the first time that a NN character has lost the lead outside of the first few minutes of a match. Ryu actually had a lead on Sonic in 2004 up until 2:30 into the match, but the lead never got past 60. That's the match everyone forgets about because of how much Sonic beasted with the Europe and day vote. --- |

| Topic | transience presents: the 75 most important matches in contest history |
| LeonhartFour 12/17/18 10:29:13 PM #256 | Still the greatest successful comeback of all time. Sonic's entire 2006 run was really fun, actually. --- |

| Topic | transience presents: the 75 most important matches in contest history |
| LeonhartFour 12/17/18 9:53:27 PM #251 | Anagram posted... I'm late to the party, but I don't know why anyone still wants Mario/Sonic. Sonic would be lucky to avoid a doubling. Just for the lore at this point, really. --- |
| Topic | transience presents: the 75 most important matches in contest history |
| LeonhartFour 12/17/18 9:51:32 PM #249 | LeonhartFour posted... We actually haven't had a Mario same-series match 1-on-1 since 2004, now that I think about it, and we had several in 2003 and 2004 (Mario/Bowser, Bowser/Yoshi, and Luigi/Yoshi). Oh wait, I take this back. We had Peach/Daisy in 2006 (LOL), but that barely counts. --- |
| Topic | transience presents: the 75 most important matches in contest history |
| LeonhartFour 12/17/18 9:44:42 PM #246 | Speaking of which, I kind of hope Cloud/Sonic 2003 is on here somewhere but it's probably not because I think it might be too high at this point. But I think that was the first time people really thought Link could lose, and seeing a Noble Niner get doubled without SFF being involved is still legitimately stunning. --- |

| LeonhartFour 12/17/18 9:42:04 PM #244 | Paratroopa1 posted... ...I wouldn't rule out Mario getting 68% on Ryu Eh, Ryu would have had to drop a decent bit for that to happen. 2010 Cloud only got 66% on him. --- |
| Topic | transience presents: the 75 most important matches in contest history |
| LeonhartFour 12/17/18 9:38:42 PM #238 | Paratroopa1 posted... Was there actually ever a time that Tifa looked weak? I sort of suspect that she was always this strong I've been a big believer in Tifa from the start. I was one of the people who pushed for her to get in back in 2005 because I thought there was no way she'd be weaker than Aerith. She's never really had a "bad" loss, honestly. --- |
| Topic | transience presents: the 75 most important matches in contest history |
| LeonhartFour 12/17/18 9:37:45 PM #236 | Yeah, I had Luigi > Seph and still feel pretty good about it if he had beaten Tifa. --- |
| Topic | transience presents: the 75 most important matches in contest history |
| LeonhartFour 12/17/18 9:33:11 PM #230 | Yeah, at the very least, Tifa was close enough that if she was weaker indirectly, I don't think it was by much. --- |

| LeonhartFour 12/17/18 9:26:49 PM #222 | Paratroopa1 posted... Random thought: Have we also never had Mario/Luigi in a contest? I can't think of it happening It happened in a 4-way once. https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/poll/3293-division-2-final-l-snake-luigi-mario-mega-man-x --- |
| Topic | transience presents: the 75 most important matches in contest history |
| LeonhartFour 12/17/18 9:18:53 PM #217 | Yeah, the fact that we've still never gotten Mario vs. Sonic is kind of baffling. I mean, it's hard to believe it'd be in any way compelling at this point, but yeah. Mario/Sonic was the one thing that could've saved RR, too. --- |
| Topic | transience presents: the 75 most important matches in contest history |
| LeonhartFour 12/17/18 9:14:44 PM #212 | I think I agree with the ranking. I think I tend to hold multi-way results as inherently less significant because of the format. --- |

| LeonhartFour 12/17/18 9:02:46 PM #215 | Well, P3 is a bit of a slow burn (my dread). Give it time and stuff will eventually start happening left and right. --- |
| Topic | transience presents: the 75 most important matches in contest history |
| LeonhartFour 12/17/18 8:47:17 PM #208 | Yeah, for all of 2013's chaos, Vivi > Mario might somehow be the most stunning result for the reasons you said. This just isn't the type of match Mario drops and non-FFVII Square wins. --- |

| Topic | transience presents: the 75 most important matches in contest history |
| LeonhartFour 12/17/18 4:32:35 PM #164 | Well, Draven and Undertale both got lucky with their first round opponents. If Draven drew MMX/Ryu in round 1, he might not have pulled it off either. --- |
| Topic | transience presents: the 75 most important matches in contest history |
| LeonhartFour 12/17/18 4:25:51 PM #162 | Mac Arrowny posted... I feel like Red vs. Blue > Cloud vs. Sephiroth at least deserves a spot on the list! Not an official match...! Although Red/Blue > Samus/Ridley or Ryu/Ken with 60% each is probably the standout result from that contest because even if you had them going far, you didn't expect THAT. --- |
| Topic | transience presents: the 75 most important matches in contest history |
| LeonhartFour 12/17/18 4:17:35 PM #158 | Yeah, I think Draven/MMX/Ryu is the biggest Draven match because we've never seen anything like that before. Undertale/ME3 is huge because of the enormity of the comeback and just the feeling that many had that it was all over. --- |

| LeonhartFour 12/17/18 3:04:48 PM #31 | Cloud? Nah, this is a far cry from Cloud's best contest. It was just a pleasant surprise to see that he still has the strength to get to the finals because there was a lot of doubt after the Squirtle loss in 2013. Tifa's always been the exception to the rule when it comes to FFVII. She even has different trends from the others! --- |

| LeonhartFour 12/17/18 3:02:50 PM #135 | The Mana Sword posted... I wasn't around in 2003, but wasn't there a pervasive theory going in that the villains of a game would be stronger than the protagonist? Well, we certainly didn't have the mindset that the protagonist is most likely to be the strongest character back then. There were a lot of people who believed Magus > Crono and Luigi > Mario in 2003, for instance. --- |
