Topic	Contest Stats and Discussion - Part 1365
MetalmindStats 01/10/21 9:47:35 PM #174:	Advokaiser posted... Um... I wouldn't count on a rallyless Undertale in a current setting. If anything, it seems to be even more dangerous thanks to all its exposure, spiritual sequel in development, Sans in Smash, etc. I'm confused about what you think has changed between GotD, where Undertale notably didn't catch any rallies of even slight significance, and now. ctesjbuvf posted... Picking Wind Waker to beat Melee would also be throwing points away any day. That has been clear since their first contest. Melee has no reason to be weaker now, it's as relevant as ever! To be fair, I get why the pick is being discussed in the absence of rallies - 47% on FF6 is a rather beastly result, and certainly better than anything unrallied Melee has ever done. That being said, I have no doubt that Melee would exert its hierarchy to win even a rally-free 1v1 match. Advokaiser posted... If we ever see Galaxy > KHII, we need to see GTAIV vs. MGS4! For all my doomsaying, I have to concede that Galaxy v KHII could actually be an interesting match now, what with the real possibility the two games have moved somewhat in opposite directions. However, what strikes me as perhaps most peculiar about the original GTAIV v MGS4 discussion is that even Lightning Strikes has taken a Brawl fall for granted with the supposition of Fallout 3 beating it in spite of every direct result between the two. And that does make sense - after all, Brawl doesn't have much left going for it now that multiple newer Smash installments have obsoleted its predominant appeal, which would explain why it didn't even make 2015. Notably, all that just happens to sound like a certain GTA game, which isn't even from a series this site truly cares about to help it hold up either. --- "I believe in a universe that doesn't care and people who do."
