Topic	~Ultimaterializer's Post-Contest Retro Summer 2008 Analysis!~
PostContestUlti 12/06/20 1:33:45 AM #66:	Anagram posted... Man, remember 8.8? I remember a bunch of whiny bitches, yes. 8.8 is double what that game deserved. It was so bad. Division 6 Round 1: Mewtwo, Ness, Pac-Man, and Travis Touchdown Mewtwo - 52487 [41.83%] Ness - 22971 [18.31%] Pac-Man - 31487 [25.09%] Travis - 18532 [14.77%] Total Votes - 125477 Before Mewtwo was known for his FRAUDULENCE -- it kills me to admit he actually is a fraud, because he's my favorite Pokemon of them all -- he was known for beating the ever-loving piss out of people in 2008 and 2013. You guys can skip to 2013 if you want to read about that run, because this is a 2008 analysis. Mewtwo was expected to get first place here and avenge that embarrassing 2007 debut, but this was something else. Not only did he come out ready to stunt on these hoes, but he also ruined any chance Ness had of getting second place by SFFing him to death. Ness was the overwhelming favorite to get second here, because Travis was always going to be gutter trash and Pac-Man only had one bright spot since 2002 -- an upset win over Revolver Ocelot. Pac-Man is just one of those characters people had no faith in, and again, Ness was largely picked for second here due to BrawlFEAR. When the poll started, it became very apparent very quickly that Ness just collapses against anything Nintendo-related more popular than him, especially if Smash Bros is involved. Mewtwo wasn't actually in Brawl, but he was in Melee and he's a part of the original 151. Pac-Man, despite also being a Nintendo character for all intents and purposes, simply had less overlap with Mewtwo. Thus, in The Hierarchy, it meant Mewtwo > Pac-Man > Ness. It feels like we all should have known this easily back in 2008, but BrawlFEAR was a very real thing during the bracket period of this contest and it felt asinine to go against it. For most people, the thought of Pac-Man doing better than Ness here was ludicrous. We saw how that turned out. This also meant Mewtwo was basically getting a bye into round 3, because the next round was him, Cloud, Pac-Man, and Midna. That pile being a round 2 match was.... yeah, but this Mewtwo performance was pretty nuts given he had two leeches in the poll with him. --- https://board8.fandom.com/wiki/Main_Page <cite>PostContestUlti posted [p:947971903] in ~*Ultimate...
