Match III: (5) Spyro the Dragon vs. (12) Chun-Li

Previous Contest Performance

Spyro the Dragon - 2013
Round 1: 56.83% against Clementine (29.97%) and Reyn (13.20%)
Round 2: 21.66% against Sephiroth (52.04%) and Morrigan Aensland (26.30%)

Chun-Li - 2013
Round 1: 26.71% against Tifa Lockheart (61.86%) and Cirno (11.43%)

Analysis

I had to think about this match for a while. Both characters performed around the same against Sephiroth and Tifa which on any other year would be good news for Spyro, but in 2013 Sephiroth looked horrible while Tifa looked to be her usual self.

Spyro has started to cross into nostalgic territory in 2013 which would explain his jump in strength. He was also the marketing tool for Skylanders which is no longer popular, but Im not convinced that it brought him much strength on GameFAQs, but any decrease in strength would spell trouble for him.

Chun-Li is the safe bet for this match, but it wouldnt be shocking if Spyro took the upset. While Street Fighter hasnt had anything new, based on the favorite Street Fighter character polls Chun-Li has gained in popularity among the GameFAQs users which remain. If Spyro does win Id keep my eye on Crash and his upcoming match against Cecil.

charmander6000s Bracket: Chun-Li > Spyro the Dragon

charmander6000s Prediction: Chun-Li wins, 55.84% - 44.16%




Match IV: (4) Ganondorf vs. (13) Neku Sakuraba

Previous Contest Performance

Ganondorf - 2013
Round 1: 65.18% against Guybrush Threepwood (18.06%) and Max Payne (16.76%)
Round 2: 17.64% against Vivi (41.27%) and Mario (41.09%)

Neku Sakuraba - 2013
Round 1: 37.87% against Catherine (39.84%) and Vaas Montenegro (22.29%)

Analysis

One of the things Im interested to see is how much of a factor Breath of the Wild will have on this contest. Sure, Ganondorfs role is not huge, but when is it? Ganondorf, while the board favourite may struggle to win the division and a match in the champions bracket should the boost not be as large as expected.

He however, wont struggle in this match. Yes, The World Ends With You was just re-released on the Switch last week, but that alone wont cover the gap between these two characters. Neku may be consider a mainstay, but hes far from having any legitimate strength.

charmander6000s Bracket: Ganondorf > Neku Sakuraba

charmander6000s Prediction: Ganondorf wins, 71.36% - 28.64%
