charmander6000 12/01/18 5:29:03 PM #460:	Match CXXXI: (3) Solid Snake vs. (3) Auron Current Contest Performance Solid Snake Lost to Zelda, 49.68% - 50.32% Auron Defeated Lucina, 65.44% - 34.56% Defeated Vincent Valentine, 55.80% - 44.20% Defeated Sub-Zero, 56.71% - 43.29% Defeated Geralt, 53.14% - 46.86% Lost to Sonic the Hedgehog, 45.68% - 54.32% Analysis The writing was on the wall all contest for Metal Gear characters, but it was still impressive to see Solid Snake drop enough to lose to Zelda. The good news for him is that Zelda is strong and that Auron hasnt looked the greatest, though he did look okay against Sonic. Regardless on paper he should defeat Auron by more than what Sonic did last round. Now if Solid ** makes his reappearance we could see an interesting match. While it wont be an instant victory for Auron it would give him a great chance to stay alive. Based on previous incarnations of Solid and that Aurons sprite wont be impressive like Frog was in 2004 we typically see Solid Snake 55/45 his weaker self. That should be enough to hold onto victory, but definitely not what Solid Snake wants to see. My prediction will be based on a normal picture. charmander6000s Bracket: Zelda > Auron charmander6000s Prediction: Solid Snake wins, 56.83% - 43.17% Match CXXXII: (3) Tifa Lockheart vs. (1) Sephiroth** Current Contest Performance Tifa Lockheart Defeated Geno, 73.19% - 26.81% Defeated Mewtwo, 58.10% - 41.90% Defeated Mega Man X, 50.18% - 49.82% Defeated Luigi, 51.36% - 48.64% Lost to Samus Aran, 41.07% - 58.93% Sephiroth Defeated Albert Wesker, 70.28% - 29.72% Defeated Captain Falcon, 64.93% - 35.07% Defeated Amaterasu, 61.37% - 38.63% Defeated Ryu, 60.26% - 39.74% Lost to Mario, 40.75% - 59.25% Analysis While Cloud and Sephiroth fell over the last decade or so Tifa has stayed relatively constant to the point where she finished ahead of Cloud and Sephiroth on the adjusted 2013 stats. Now I dont exactly believe Tifa is stronger than the two, but I do feel she is pretty close. Both Tifa and Sephiroth got similar performances against Samus and Mario respectively and direct matches aside the two seem to have similar strength. Historically, Tifa has held up quite well against Sephiroth, avoiding SFF in 2/3 matches involving the two characters. Im not expecting SFF here either, for the most part Final Fantasy VII fans dont have a hierarchy of characters that is susceptible to SFF and if it were to occur, Id expect it to be relatively smaller than what we see among Nintendo characters. charmander6000s Bracket: Mega Man X > Sephiroth charmander6000s Prediction: Sephiroth wins, 53.17% - 46.83% --- CBX - Today's Winners: Ganondorf and Bowser <cite>charmander6000 posted [p:913372154] in Contest St...
