Division 5 Round 1: (3)Aloy vs (14)D.Va

(3)Aloy - 12563 [47.06%]
(14)D.Va - 15256 [52.94%]
Total Votes - 28819
Prediction Percentage - 62.98%

Hey so remember when people were being ridiculous pre-contest and kept acting like D.Va was going to catch a bunch of rally strength and win the entire contest? It's time to puff my chest out and rip this shmedium tee clear off, because the damn thing doesn't fit.

Called it. Told you so. Vindicated. Yet another thing I was ahead of the curve on. As usual, Ulti Was Right. How does one man continue to fly all these Ws?

When in doubt, just blame Russia! Copy and paste to trigger a liberal today!

At least picking Monika to win the contest made logical sense, and if this contest happened in 2017 she probably would have won. That fanbase was prepping a rally before the contest even started. But D.Va? Come on, people. You're better than this.

I will now sit here and wait for someone, anyone, to give me a list of every FPS character with GameFAQs contest strength. Seriously. I'll wait.

Okay we're done.

Unless you want to count Samus because your first Metroid game was Prime, the only FPS characters with any strength are Master Chief and Gordon Freeman. I might give you GLaDOS. That's about it.

And I'm supposed to believe a bad character, from a trash tier video game, made by arguably the worst company in gaming, paired with one of the worst fanbases in gaming, is going to care enough about our dead web site to vote in a poll based on reddit traffic and pornography? Are you people insane? I hope this contest has taught you all a very valuable lesson: Reddit traffic does not matter to the extent you all seem to think it does. League of Legends was clearly a flash in the pan and only worked because back in 2013 GameFAQs was still relevant enough to catch rallies. Now? This site is dead and reddit doesn't care. I hope people have learned that, especially the former. GameFAQs, the site we used to all like, is done. I don't care what BS Allen and CBS feed you people; I'm a big contributor and I see the page hits on my stuff. Don't fall for it.

I actually picked Aloy to win this match because I just knew D.Va would be garbage. Turns out only having 19 people play your game doesn't win you polls. But even then, as a heavy favorite D.Va went out there and just crapped the bed. She was over 60% early, looked good for about 15 minutes, and then puked everywhere. Losing 7% when you start at 60% is not easy to do -- it's much harder than, say, starting at 85% and dropping to 78 -- and it got so bad for D.Va that she badly lost the morning vote. We had very few trends this contest, but D.Va had a 1750 vote overnight lead get chopped down to 1400 at one point. She would recover the votes as the day went on, but the damage to her candidacy was over. This was a bad match for her, and it showed that outside of Blizzard fans actually caring about something without having to be bribed to care (shout out to neonreaper for calling this one out, too), D.Va was done.

Which was fantastic. Blizzard is complete and total garbage, and has been since the second Activision took them ov-- errrrr, merged with them.
