Board 8 > IIT: Every Debateable First Round Match

(+) Yeah! (+)

If you are just breezing these picks maybe think twice about it. Also, any feed back or opinions = awesome. (Bold are my picks)

First Round:

(4) Conker vs. Great Mighty Poo
(5) Ike vs. Black Knight
- Joke power may prevail on a usually hapless Ike, but I like him in this. I never trust joke characters, but usually pay for it. A giant pile of crap might stir up some voters.

(3) Kirby vs. Meta Knight
(6) Jill Valentine vs. Nemesis
- Once upon a time Jill beat Kirby. It's not out of the question here, but I see it as unlikely.

(2) Sub-Zero vs. Scorpion
(7) Leon vs. Ada Wong
- I believe Leon would have great chance at beating Scorpion alone and a fair chance at beating Sub Zero alone. But this is a case of where one team outclasses another in nostalgia and popularity. Had to pick MK to win this one.

(2) Fox McCloud vs. Wolf O'Donnell
(7) Yuna vs. Seymour
- I really wanted to pick Yuna for FFX strength. But in reality, I really don't know who to pick at all.

(2) Tidus vs. Jecht
(7) Big Boss vs. The Boss
- I like this pick. A lot. Not saying its a lock though.

(1) Phoenix Wright vs. Edgeworth
(8) Gordon Freeman vs. Dr. Breen
- The board loves Phoenix but I can't see that saving him from re-living his GFNW nightmare.

(3) Chell vs. GlaDOS
(6) Ness vs. Giygas
- Like Yuna and Fox, I'm having a hard time coming to a decision on this. This is another where I don't know who to pick at all.

(3) Crash vs. Neo Cortex
(6) Pac-Man vs. Blinky
- Both Pac-Man and Crash are complete fodder. At least there was a time where Pac-Man mattered in this contest, even though it was just a little. Also, Pac has a win over Ocelot, something Crash would wet his pants to have (which goes to show how much of a pillow fight this match is).

(4) Siegfried vs. Nightmare
(5) Ramza vs. Delita
- Ramza is competition for the likes of Laharl and Hogger. That never bodes well. FFT is a great game, and Delita only makes Ramza stronger, but Nightmare will carry this one out for the team. Not overly confident in this though.

I hope Adolf loses worse than Tanner. I'm blatantly leaving him out of this topic.

It is better to be quotable than to be honest.

Blah I'll throw in a few bonus matches too.

Debatable 2nd Round Matches:

Kirby vs. Meta Knight
Sonic vs. Dr. Robotnik
- Really not too much to debate here. Sonic might flop. He's been known to do so. It's the only reason I list the match. Won't catch me picking against him though.

Pokemon Trainer Red vs. Blue
Luigi vs. Waluigi
- I like Luigi to take this. But it's a 50/50 match. Weegi needs a better rival. Definitely might change this before Nov. 2nd.

Gordon Freeman vs. Dr. Breen
Alucard vs. Dracula
- Assuming Freeman beats Phoenix, this might be close. Alucard has been losing strength while Gordon gains it. Going with Alucard in the end though.

Dante vs. Vergil
Sora vs. Riku
- Talk about a match that makes you look up and think about past stats...this is a tough pick. Can't believe they've never met before. Sora has the stronger rival and likes to make appearances in the third round. He also likes to get worked by Squall every year, which is exactly what would be waiting for him if he won.

After that there's only two more matches worth discussing.

Debatable Divisional Finals:

Luigi vs. Waluigi
Ryu vs. Ken
- Honestly, I think Ryu and Ken would wipe their butts with the Pokemon trainers, but this match could be tricky. Ryu and Ken have to obvious advantage though.

Alucard vs. Dracula
Frog vs. Magus
- Alucard has a deceivingly unchallenged path. Phoenix is way over seeded, and would get whooped by Alucard if he made it past Gordon. Gordon would stand the best chance at knocking Alucard off. If that doesn't happen, then Alucard gets to to rumble with two all time great collapse artists. This is an easy pick masked as a hard one. If Alucard gets past Gordon, he's into the finals.
