ZeldaTPLink 04/27/20 11:29:31 AM #82:	It seems COVID-19 wins every senario where Dark Souls getting to the finals. Testing in azuarc's simulator, the only way I found where they lose in that case is with a combination of Dark Souls > Breath of the Wild and Persona 5 > The Witcher (or Persona 5 > God of War). Aside from that, Ngamer and gravy have the most winning scenarios. Both needs Witcher in the finals, but with different combinations in the previous 4 matches giving the win to either of them, or to other people. If Skyrim is in the finals, transience is the most likely winner, but there are a few other possible ones. <cite>ZeldaTPLink posted [p:938177104] in * GotD 202...

charmander6000 04/27/20 11:42:55 AM #86:	To expand above... Since we have a week break I'm going to create a series where I find the guru winners based on a certain bracket outcome. Since there are still over 32k permutations I'm going to limit things by assuming no rallying and thus assuming BotW will win the bracket (sorry non-BotW brackets). I will also assume the winner of SSBU/SMO will defeat the winner of Xenoblade/P4G. Everything else I can see at the very least a small upset chance. I'll split things up based on the second semi-final match result (Witcher 3 > Skyrim for example) so each post will have 32 permutations (the five free moving fourth round matches). The "cookie" bracket follows the current cookie with the exception of division 4 where Xenoblade Chronicles > Persona 4 Golden is the new cookie pick. --- Game of the Decade 2 - Current Score: 164/184 Today's Picks: TESV: Skyrim and Pokemon HG/SS <cite>charmander6000 posted [p:938177696] in * GotD 202...

charmander6000 04/27/20 11:56:10 AM #92:	A Witcher 3 > Skyrim Semi-Final Result If the gurus had a second chance to redo their bracket I imagine most would now have Witcher 3 winning the contest. Should Skyrim also reach the semi-final things look good for azuarc whom not only has the cookie round 4 picks, but can also win with a few single or two wrong picks. The user with the most permutations though is JONALEON1 whom wins 12/16 scenarios should TLOU defeat Dark Souls. Gravy is in a similar boat with SMO > SSBU where he has eight scenarios, but needs an additional upset to go his way to finish ahead of azuarc. The remaining six permutations are split between three users, Furious Fura is in a good position to win in this scenario as he only needs P4G to win its match while Glenn_and_Toad and Hbthebattle need P4G along with other upsets. azuarc (6) Cookie RE2 SMO Portal 2 RE2/Portal 2 SMO/Portal 2 JONALEON1 (12) TLOU RE2/TLOU SMO/TLOU P4G/TLOU Portal 2/TLOU RE2/SMO/TLOU RE2/Portal 2/TLOU SMO/P4G/TLOU SMO/Portal 2/TLOU P4G/Portal 2/TLOU RE2/SMO/Portal 2/TLOU SMO/P4G/Portal 2/TLOU gravy (8) RE2/SMO SMO/P4G RE2/SMO/P4G RE2/SMO/Portal 2 SMO/P4G/Portal 2 RE2/SMO/P4G/Portal 2 RE2/SMO/P4G/TLOU RE2/SMO/P4G/Portal 2/TLOU Furious Fura (2) P4G P4G/Portal 2 Glenn_and_Toad (2) RE2/P4G/TLOU RE2/P4G/Portal 2/TLOU Hbthebattle (2) RE2/P4G RE2/P4G/Portal 2 --- Game of the Decade 2 - Current Score: 164/184 Today's Picks: TESV: Skyrim and Pokemon HG/SS <cite>charmander6000 posted [p:938178348] in * GotD 202...

charmander6000 04/27/20 12:21:17 PM #94:	A Witcher 3 > Dark Souls Semi-Final Result Personally I would rank this as the second most likely semi-final result. Should this happen Ngamer would be looking good as he holds 24/32 permutations. One that is missing however is RE2 > ME2 which isn't a farfetched result. Should that occur squexa will win. Squexa has a few other options including a few with HGSS > Skyrim scenarios. Despite taking NieR > HGSS, preventing Ngamer from collecting points is also beneficial. After that The Mana Sword has a single way to win outright and will tie with gravy in a different scenario.
