This is a kinda lame way to think.

Like the dude who calls a few fairly close matches wrong not only gets to be ridiculed for being wrong most of the time but also doesn't get any credit for the times it actually works cause "well it's bias." Like Mr Negative is 100% unironically right there cause if you're taking it that way you are being negative with every result.

Like I bet you've bet against Master Chief in every match he's been in but I wouldn't take away credit for the Sub-Zero pick cause it was still a risky pick on paper, just like going with Luigi over Ganondorf, especially since there were reasons to go with Luigi there that weren't bias based (Ganon's performance in SFF matches at that point made it a tempting pick)

I see your point, but that's not true for me and Master Chief. I definitely picked Halo over Starcraft, and I wrote about picking Halo 3 over Sunshine. I took Chief over DK even though I thought it would be a really close match too. (I did take Frog over Master Chief, but I also took any RPG character over a non RPG character back when I didn't know any better.)

I consider Mario Galaxy over Super Metroid to be a painful pick for me more than a bad pick. I always wanted to believe in Super Metroid, didn't believe here because of Mario and got wrecked.
