Tifa was without a doubt the highlight of the 2018 from me and the more I think about it probably my proudest moment of predictions. To be fair, making good calls about characters getting further than expected feels a lot better when they're among your favorite characters.

I took Tifa to win the division and was honeslty a bit frustrated that she had to run into Samus again again. I wish I would've thought a bit more about taking her precontest, but not a single person seemed to have thought of this idea, and I really wanted Seph to prove that he wasn't as weak as a lot of vocal people claimed he would be, so I picked Seph to win that in my bracket... but not in the oracle match! I just thought that given how we've gone away from liking the cool and badass kind of guys quite a bit but never liked cool female characters less, Tifa vs. Seph would not be the SFF beatdown it usually was and given what we knew, it should be close... and I couldn't imagine Tifa losing a close match to Sephiroth. Being the only one to predict a 1v1 match correctly is rare enough in itself, but in a late oracle match where we had recent data on the two. Yeah, that felt so good... and made it even more annoying that the losers bracket called for rematches so she would face Samus yet again when there might have been some bandwagon power ready in her.

Ald yeah, the people complaining about the X result were super hypocritical, since he was rallied a lot as well, screw where the votes came from.

Edit: Cloud actually going ahead to beat Zelda and Mario was also a great highlight of that contest. The rematch people had wanted to see since 02, then stopped caring about because Mario would probably win it without a game release and then it happens and Cloud takes it claiming the #2 he had not been thought to have for so long. Finally a good contest to like FFVII in.
