Now, its been awhile since I, um, read any hentai, and Ive never read any involving any Nintendo franchise, but I would have to assume that a fairly large portion of hentai containing Zelda probably also contains Link. Assuming that were not just talking about that stuff on *banned site* where its just a bunch of (sometimes literally) disembodied cocks gang-raping whatever girl is being fetishized. And thus, if anyone gets to fuck Zelda over, it should be Link.

And come on now. Its Link. Whens the last time he looked bad in a match? Well, okay, Snake battled him somewhat hard in the 2013 bonus match, but weird things can happen in bonus matches (see: Jay Solano, ?-Block). He honestly looked incredible even in defeat against Draven, and the round before that he SFFed Yoshi into losing to Raiden. Honestly, I want to call for this upset because Im still in awe of the result that finished up a few hours before I started writing this, that being Zeldas win over Mario, but every time I get close to even calling for it to be close Links entire history comes crashing down on me. The biggest reason why 4way X-stats are unreliable is that when characters A, B, C, and D are in a match, the X-stat value you get for character C (who finished third) by calculating through character B (who finished second) are different than youd get by calculating directly against character A (the champion). And thats just for within a single match! Yet despite the fact that 4way percentages tend to be more closely bunched together (that is to say, its a lot easier to break 40% on a character in a 4way than in a 1v1), the best number any Nintendo character has put up on Link directly was in fact in a 1v1, and that was37.94% by Samus in 2003, the same year that Cloud managed to beat Link. But its hardly just Nintendo; there have only been five characters to ever break 40% on Link directly no matter the format, and two of them were L-Block and Draven. The other three, of course, are Cloud, Sephiroth, and Snake. (No, Jay Solano doesnt count.) The closest anyone else has come was when Crono got 39.67% on him directly in a fourwayin which the other two characters were Mario and Samus.

And as we saw last round, not even Cloud has what it takes to break 40% on Link anymore. Rallies or no rallies, Zelda shouldnt be able to outdo that number. And yetthe first time Link faced Ganondorf, he more than septupled him. This year, he couldnt even manage the quadrupling. Add in the rallies, add in the registered voter bonus which should favor the bandwagoned contestant over LINK ALWAYS WINS, and maybe, just maybe, Zelda can break through with a percentage beyond what Samus or Mario (whose best performance on Link isnt far behind Samuss, albeit in a 4way37.91% in 2007 with Seph and Vincent as the other two) have ever done. Nah, I cant do it. I wanted to make a crazy upset pick, and I feel like even predicting Zelda to break 40% would qualify as crazy, but I cant do it.
