Round 1 Leon Kennedy vs. Dragonborn

Moltars Analysis

Closing out the day with a match that shouldnt be in doubt. Dragonborn isnt super weak, despite the 15 seed. He did beat Yuna in the last Character Battle (though she was splitting with Tifa). Skyrim might also be five years older, but it still does seem relevant in gaming these days.

Leon is out of his range, but hes not a worldbeater either. The RE boi should take this comfortably, but Im not expecting a blowout or a nail biter here.

Moltars Bracket: Leon

Moltars Prediction: Leon 62%

transiences Analysis

Does Leon still matter? I don't know why but I have a feeling he's faded -- probably because Resident Evil isn't exactly gamefaqs's bread and butter. He's good, sure, and he'll rock Dragonborn. Skyrim would blow up RE4 but this isn't a fair fight.

But Leon.. might lose to DK? It's going to be hard to judge him here. If Leon goes to town here then yeah maybe he's safe. Tidus/DK/Leon/Vivi is a nice eightpack. One of the few.

transience's prediction: Leon with 70.11%

Leonharts Analysis

I think were past Leon Kennedys prime because Resident Evil 4 is 13 years old at this point (although theyre probably still releasing a port at least twice a year), and the series as a whole has lost favor due to the games that have come out since then. That being said, he shouldnt have any problem winning this match. Im kinda surprised Dragonborn got back in because he looked pretty bad in CBIX, and were probably past Skyrims peak strength on this site, too, even if it is on every system under the sun at this point, too.

Leonharts Vote: Leon Kennedy

Leonharts Prediction: Leon Kennedy with 59.42%

Kleenexs Analysis

Going back through some old results of Leons, Im not as impressed with his resume as I was in my memories of contests passed. Hes still going to be fine here - faceless Skyrim avatar man did okay in 2013, and people still love them some Skyrim, but theres not much to latch onto there. Dragonborn is basically a proxy vote for Skyrim. Which should be enough to stop him from getting completely embarrassed, but I see no reason why Leon doesnt win this comfortably. Perhaps Ill be impressed, but without any knowledge of how their respective round 1 matches go, Im kinda wishing I took Vivi over Leon in round 3 of my bracket right now.

Kleenexs Prediction: Leon with 64%

Guests Analysis - Ranticoot

Leon is pretty good and has a hyped release soon, Dragonborn at what is almost assuredly his strongest couldn't beat down Tom Nook. Next.

The question that I am only putting here to make this writeup longer: how much weaker is Dragonborn going to be? Even with Yuna in the poll he barely got 40% on Tifa. I don't think 1v1 is going to be a good format for a character like him. At least Skyrim the game showed some good strength in 2015. I don't think Leon goes super big but he could.

Ranticoot's prediction - Leon Kennedy with 61.73%

Crew Consensus: Leon shoots past Dragonborn
