Match I: (1) Dante vs. (16) Cuphead

Previous Contest Performance

Dante 2013
Round 1: 60.08% against Laharl (25.59%) and Raz (14.33%)
Round 2: 31.55% against Squirtle (44.08%) and Zidane Tribal (24.37%)

Cuphead - N/A
N/A

Analysis

Its been a while. Five years since the last character battle. Any data now is useless, but that wont stop me from analysing every match.

Dante had a rough 2013, due to the backlash of DmC. Even if GameFAQs doesnt show too much interest in newer games Dante will hope things are forgiven with the announcement of Devil May Cry V. Though unless something crazy happens Dantes path does feel a bit predictable, so he may not need to worry.

As a character from a new IP, I dont expect too much out of Cuphead. His game did finish third in the 2017 Game of the Year poll where it got crushed by Breath of the Wild and Persona 5. In the past, Dante has had great success in crushing weaker characters and I believe the same will be true here. If Cuphead breaks 30% I would consider that to be a moral victory.

charmander6000s Bracket: Dante > Cuphead

charmander6000s Prediction: Dante wins, 72.43% - 27.57%




Match II: (8) Chloe Price vs. (9) Lightning

Previous Contest Performance

Chloe Price - N/A
N/A

Lightning - 2013
Round 1: 38.42% against Donkey Kong (45.76%) and Falco Lombardi (15.82%)

Analysis

Remember when Lightning lost to Donkey Kong despite Falco being in the poll? Lucky for her third times a charm and barring any rallies she should get her first win. Life is Strange was losing 80/20 to Fallout 3 before the Undertale rally increased it to a respectable 27%.

I feel Life is Strange was more of a slow burner in terms of it gaining popularity, but at the same time the game isnt geared towards the GameFAQs demographics whom are also less likely to play new IPs. I dont expect much out of Chloe Price other than to be weak fodder.

charmander6000s Bracket: Lightning > Chloe Prince

charmander6000s Prediction: Lightning wins, 69.11% - 30.89%
