The bigger fraud here is being strongly overseen and that is Isaac.

this is a good result for Isaac unless you don't think Kirby is very good

Ehhh, this is SFF Isaac and he still beats the shit out of Guile. Not too bad.

This is pretty much the result everyone expected from Isaac. I don't think he's being particularly SFFd here either. He's the fodder line.

why are people calling for SFF here

you people

Red did about 4.5% better with registered users. Without the registered user bonus, Red would only win this match by 58 votes. We still haven't had a match where the bonus would have changed the winner. There was a rally attempt for Sora, which might have also inflated his percentage with anonymous users, but I haven't done any research to determine what impact the rally had.

Crash did about 4% better with registered users in round 1, but now Big Boss had a slight advantage over Crash with registered users.

Alucard and Kefka are also about 2% better with registered users as well.

you people

Well, he only is an Assist Trophy, so he's gotta be on low end of the totem pole!
---

I hope Isaac is getting SFFed because that makes Estelle look better

Kinda doubt it though
---

but why would the overlap be disproportionate

First party Nintendo dude. Makes as much sense as any other cross-genre Nintendo SFF.
---

Damn it, if this holds, I'll lose 2 matches. After going 4/4 on debatable ones, this was supposed to be the easy day!
---

The question remains whether Phoenix can build enough lead before the morning

Mr. Wrong, was it?

Why Leon why

Oi 2B what the hell was that?
---

Holy hell, I finally have 4/4 on a day with close matches

I'm really glad that 2B is winning, that means this site has SOME semblance of taste when it comes to newer games. Also, I had no idea I took Phoenix over Ike until I looked at my bracket. Either I blanked out when filling out that match, or this result was more obvious than I thought.
---

This match is a stallfest now.

See you tomorrow.

Ike put up his 200 barrier.

the trailing character doesn't have BARRIERS

oh this doesn't look nearly as cool as it did before

Excuse me, Ike's -200 BARRIER.

Ike's got this.

I'll get myself out.

Samus never really gets those SFF beatdowns either.
---

Good to see 2B is winning. It would be pretty pathetic if she couldn't even beat Ness, but at least thats one new game this site has played.
---

So as expected it's looking like this division will end up as Bowser v Kirby. What are the stats saying for that one? I'm thinking Bowser would be favored from a guess?
---

Vote for NESS!!!

I don't really think you need to play her game to appreciate her umm... design more.

Zvarri! The truth has once again been elegantly revealed to me!
---

I'm not sure how to handle living in a world where Phoenix doesn't entirely crash and burn after the Power Hour is hour.

*refresh* Oh man
---

Oh? Excuses not on sale today?
---

Yeah, at this rate the night won't be kind to Ike...

*refresh* Oh man

He just had to face someone nearly as frontloaded as he is! I always felt like this was a possibility.

This is far from over, of course, but now I feel like he can hang on and win this.
---

this vote map is something to behold too

just about everything outside of North America is blue

heck almost everything is blue for 2B which is odd considering how close that one is too
---

North America has always really liked Ike. Back when the ASV mattered he had one of the best day votes in the business.
---

"I fight for my friends" is one of the best lines I've ever heard from a video game character. Like... it's the only thing I've ever heard Ike say, and it endeared him so much to me.
---

Oh geez wrong way Phoenix
---

The greatest turnabouts are never easy.

It's only natural for living creatures to fight to protect their own lives. But what makes us human is that we fight for others. But who do you fight for? How hard must you fight...? That's the true measure of what human life is worth.
---

It was after the third hour that Phoenix started to drop fast in the first match. I don't think Phoenix is gonna hang on here.

Eh, the difference is that he was facing a character who has a really strong Euro vote. Phoenix is killing Ike in Europe right now.
---

I hope you're right. I don't want to have to say that three-word phrase!

Ugh Phoenix why must you also be awesome.

He's losing 30 votes an update

You look like I did after I mistakenly took a swig of Worcestershire sauce.
