My (very hazy and probably wrong) memory had CJayC's topic listing Mario and Link as first and second respectively on odds while the vibe from board posters was that Sephiroth and Snake were the favorites. There were some who thought Mario would lose the first round due to people not taking it seriously ("joke voting") and there was widespread debate on what the actual wording of the poll would be. The odds are listed on gamefaqscontests.com in the 2k2 x-stats section Here are the odds for the top 10 characters 1. Mario - 6:1 2. Solid Snake - 8:1 3. Link - 9:1 3. Sephiroth - 9:1 5. Cloud - 14:1 6. Crono - 33:1 7. Dante - 36:1 7. Samus - 36:1 9. Mega Man - 45:1 9. Sonic - 45:1 --- CBX - Today's Winners: Link and Mega Man Score: 196/256 ... Copied to Clipboard!

"Best overall character" probably means across the whole series. Pikachu was the best in 64, still top tier in Melee, Brawl and Smash 4, and looks to be the best again in Ultimate (so far). Fox, according to top players who tried him in Ultimate, feels much worse than any other Smash game.

For reference here's the top 10 of that list Then that also means that this would be a new record for 24-hour 1v1s. The DKC2-Xenoblade match holds that record right now; the top two were both 12-hour matches. Actually, the early rounds of 2013 were 12-hour matches too, weren't they? So this would be the overall record for 24-hour matches. --- "Someday I'll catch up, and then you'll all be surprised!" BKSheikah has the power. He is the one. ... Copied to Clipboard!

There were some who thought Mario would lose the first round due to people not taking it seriously ("joke voting") and there was widespread debate on what the actual wording of the poll would be. Wow, interesting stuff. Though there are definitely some oddities on that page, such as "expected seed" being dictated by X-Stat finish within the division, resulting in the #5 character in the X-stats being "expected to be a 4-seed" while the #62 character is "expected to be a 14-seed". And that's from the same division! Mega Man murdered his first two matches, resulting in his second opponent literally finishing ahead of only his own first opponent and Mega's first opponent, and then both division semifinals and the division finals were really close, resulting in the four of them finishing #2-#5 when Sephiroth put up a better number on Link in the Semis than Mario did in the Finals. Actually now that I look at it, outside of the two matches where Mega Man murdered everyone, the West Division held up really well all around! 8 of the top 14 finishers in the Raw X-Stats came from that one division. Kind of fluky though; Tidus managed to get unexpectedly close to Sonic, and that was a round 2 match so he dragged his first opponent up with him. --- "Someday I'll catch up, and then you'll all be surprised!"

Some small rallies on reddit for both early in the day. Seems like it probably helped mega man slightly more than pikachu based on feedback on that sight but hard to say.

They were the bottom of the Noble Nine, to be sure, but any attempt to expand the Noble Nine would give them wins against fellow members of whichever expansion you wanted to use. --- "Someday I'll catch up, and then you'll all be surprised!"
