Kleenexs Analysis

Ive been waffling back and forth on this match all weekend. Pikachu definitely looked real good in the main bracket, and Pokemon just had a game come out a few weeks ago, so people are high on the Pokefumes. Mega Man has been on the bottom end of the Noble Nine for a while now, and has definitely looked vulnerable over the past few contest, though he usually manages to squeak by. I think thatll be the case here. I actually expect the NN hold strong in this first round. Some of the main bracket characters looked great, no doubt about that, but that doesnt mean they can come knocking at the NNs door. These guys are still a step above anyone else in the main bracket (Sephiroth being the exception), and I think theyll assert their dominance in a way that some people may not be expecting.

Kleenexs Prediction: Mega Man with 55%

Remember this poll: https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/poll/5261-character-battle-ix-division-9-final-mega-man-vs-zero-mmx-vs where Charizard couldn't beat Mega Man even with Zero in the poll? Yeah Pikachu is stronger than the Zard but beating a noble niner 1 on 1 is a big ask. There is also this poll: https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/poll/5265-character-battle-ix-bonus-battle-3-runners-up-battle where Mega Man nearly beat Mewtwo and Pikachu combined.

On the other hand the rat has looked great so far and there is this poll: https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/poll/5240-character-battle-ix-division-6-round-2-crono-vs-pikachu-vs where Pikachu got 54% on Crono and nearly beat Crono and Magus combined. That match does have me second guessing myself a bit but I would say 2010 and 2013 were the weakest versions of Crono we've ever seen.

Could we finally see those scrappy underdogs pull one off here? I'm not buying the upset hype to be honest. I understand people looking for sexy upsets but I actually think there are two or three more likely upsets this round. Anyway I expect this match to be close-ish but never in question.
