We haven't even seen Crono in action yet, so let's not jump to any conclusions on his potential strength before he has his first match this. Crono's match against Kirby/Bowser will give us an idea as to whether he can beat Cloud. The Owner of FF9 posted... So by "this contest," you meant the legends (winner's) bracket? Both the Legends and Loser bracket. So you don't think Zelda can beat Auron?

I don't even know what to do with this. I'm just...numb. Has it ever happened to you guys before? Feeling like there isn't any reason to care for the contests anymore? An out of nowhere upset that drastically changes the tiering of elite characters based solely on natural strength instead of bullshit rallies is what kills the contest for you? This is the best result of the contest so far! And to all the Snake naysayers, remember that he is also in smash, meaning if anything he should have also boosted again. Snake could have lost a step due to the whole Konami debacle and resulting backlash. Enough to drop him from #2 to #4/5 depending on Cloud's drop.
