WORST #4: Sans over Pac-Man

Sans 28.62% 8571
Pac-Man 71.38% 21380
TOTAL VOTES 29951

I, uh, yeah. Actually, believe it or not this isn't as bad as it looks. Pac-Man was, for some reason, kind of outrageously strong in 2018 compared to pretty much any other year. Yeah, Pac-Man got into Smash, but it was Pac-Man. It wasn't like people didn't know who he was and it wasn't like Pac-Man was awesome there.

To make matters probably worse, my pick for Sans wasn't some kind of stupid rally pick. I don't do those because I hate trying to predict a rally. Sans had become a pretty notable character by the time 2018 rolled around, and his competition was a yellow ball that always collapsed in the face of adversity. I don't have my bracket handy but I may have even picked Sans to beat Bayonetta in round 2. I forget.

So yeah, this pick is particularly dreadful. I don't ever take 70-30 L's at this point of my contest career. If I lose, it's a noncompetitive 57-43 or something like that, not something this bad. This one hurt.
