Not_Wylvane 07/31/18 7:59:48 PM #7: |
I honestly have no clue, but probably Tressa, Therion, or Primrose. Alfyn's too love-or-hate, nobody cares about H'aanit, Olberic and Ophelia are decent but overshadowed, and Cyrus kinda gets overlooked.
I'd go with Tressa myself, maybe throw in Primrose if the contest has a lot of characters. Still don't think any of them would be above high fodder, though, as the game seems pretty niche on GameFAQs. --- Not_Wylvane ... Copied to Clipboard!

Tracer and D.Va are probably most popular

In other words, are you asking if ME1 is stronger than ME2? ME1 got 45% on a Smash game, ME2 got eviscerated by an MGS game. If you set the two equal then MGS3 gets like 56% on Smash 4...actually that doesn't sound so unreasonable TBH. --- "Nothing I could do!" -Darksydephil ... Copied to Clipboard!

Tracer, D.Va or Monika with rallies.
Other than that, it's hard to say.

The Octopath characters feel like they will be a good step down in popularity relative to Xenoblade 2 characters and I don't expect much from the Xenoblade 2 cast. Being an ensemble cast will hurt everyone in Octopath.

Given the precedent from last character battle, I'm guessing the 8 characters in the image probably end up being the 1 seeds for an 8-division bracket.

Does a character battle mean it is Waluigi time? It's a question we need to take seriously now. I'll be honest, I'd fully expect Waluigi to win. Though my predictions have been better in traditional contests than rallies where anyone can win. I might still go with the Waluigi victory though since I think it's still recent enough that he'll get some love from the complete fucking internet. --- Not_Wylvane ... Copied to Clipboard!

Yes, both of them will get a Guru nom for this contest since the 2017 contest didn't have a nomination process. BKSheikah was the one who was considering Aqua from Kingdom Hearts, but I don't take that as direct confirmation of his Guru choice.

im going to guess the contest will be 1v1 with 4 matches a day
in hopes that quick matches will crush rallies but the low votals may make things even easier for rallies idk but it would be cool if we got a 256 character bracket with tons of 1v1 matches to celebrate 10 years of history what if Allen automatically enters everyone who has ever been in a contest before and then adds more from noms and the shit is like a 500+ character bracket that goes on forever i dont know if I'd love or hate it --- Is this Elite Beat Agents 2? ...
