Link vs Alucard

Well, it's a Link match, what is there to say? Guess I'll try this tactic- call me crazy, but I think Alucard outperforms Mega Man in this one! Link's obviously a monster (still shaking my head over that 84% on Ammy), but even so, 75% on Mega Man strikes me as "something fishy's going on here!" in the same way that Mario's 71% on Sonic did. I just get the sense that against beasts like Link and Ocarina, your (tiny) final percentage is often more a reflection of how well you "stand out" versus your opponent rather than your own inherent strength. No one would pick Ammy to score only 52% on those Warcraft clowns, but they were PC and RTS and MMO and Blizzard, all areas of this site that Link can't reach, and they put up an impressive (in retrospect!) final percentage as a result.

As for Alucard, he's Sony and PSX and PSN and Metroidvania, and although Castlevania has gone mostly in the Nintendo handheld direction in the last decade, Link doesn't have the same death grip on those systems as he does on the console side, so it's still a plus. Alucard should also have the advantage of a decent "push" overnight that might help keep this percentage down (something Mega Man couldn't say; remember, Europe hates him!), plus he's got Dracula by his side to nullify whatever small advantage Ganon might bring to the table. All that adds up to the kind of showing that will ensure future generations take one glance at the final 2011 x-stats, shake their heads in disbelief, then totally disregard them for the remainder of their lives!

Link - 75.25%
