If I missed someone obvious (note - simply winning like Link doesn't really qualify as a "star") let me know.

Alucard's run was by far the most fun, but in terms of strength of performances relative to expectations and history, Zelda easily wins the title.

Link. The guy is amazing, even with the entire rest of the noble 9 collapsing, he is immune to all of the 2018 trends causing chaos.

2018 trends favoured link massively, what with him being in botw and smash

Zelda all the way, I never thought she increased so much her popularity.

But she has.

In terms of actual strength increase and whatnot it's clearly Zelda.

Still voted Alucard because his run was too damn fun.

I actually considered putting him on the poll but decided he simply didn't last long enough and his run ended as unceremoniously as possible.

I really don't think so

Ness is irrelevant outside of the 10 people who still want Mother 3 and her first round opponent was.... I have no idea who it was. That Mass Effect dude? Destiny?

Losing to Bowser should have been considered a lock on this board.

Bowser was the guru favourite, Kirby was only favoured in oracle because everyone gave PW too much credit

Yes, but 2B did way better than anyone expected, especially when new characters were s***ing the bed everywhere. In fact, she might be the strongest character that debuted since the early-mid 00s.

Zelda completely surprised everyone.

Cloud, I did not believe would beat Zelda or Mario. Surprised by how much strength he still has.

How is cloud a star?

In relation to his previous strength. Hes declined and had 50/50 matches with Mario and Zelda.

10 years ago hed have 60-40d these guys. Now hes just in that pack below link alongside Samus and snake as well as the other two Ive mentioned

Did he have respectable comp? Sure he got to final. So credit to him but a star? Not even top 10. Id put pikachu ahead of him.

But like I said. Hes had a good comp and wih so much nintendo Dominance its good to see this guy prevail but lets look back at history.

Cloud underperformed a bit. Getting 60-40d by Link isnt good

Cloud doesnt give a shit about beating Mario or Zelda. Hes always been #2 on this site and all hes done is about par Id say.

He made the GRAND final. He beat the supposed "star" of the contest even after she ran roughshot over the Noble 9 and had crazy bandwagon potential.

This doesn't make cloud the star, otherwise this logic in turn makes Link the star

...hell, it can work for link I guess since he eviscerated everybody with over 60%, but still

Everybody expected Cloud to make grand finals or come close. Nobody expected Zelda to take a dump on the N9 and boost up to number 3 on the site at worst.

That bandwagon ended after link demolished her

Sorry but cloud did ok. Not star calibur

I can accept your disagreement Yuri.

I think Ganondorf is a star, Vivi was a serious threat and he made it to Legends.
