Wait, I didn't even manage to finish out Round 4?

Match 120: Sephiroth vs. Ryu

Sephiroth 18769
Ryu 12376

Ryu fared better with registered voters than anonymous voters, so this match isn't even as close as it looks. Which isn't terribly close. Fighting game characters seemed somewhat stronger this year, but you'd never guess it from this match, where the allegedly struggling Sephiroth still managed to break 60% on Ryu, a character that famously always required a Noble Niner to take him down in early contests and always broke 40% in those losses. At this point, Sephiroth was probably only considered to have "weakened" because of the overall weakness of Division 8. Think of it like L-Block's 2007 run in reverse. Sephiroth's always going to draw a certain number of anti-votes, so he looks stronger against strong characters like Ryu here than he does against weak ones, just as L-Block's so-called "joke trends" meant it would draw a consistent percentage regardless of whether it was facing R1 fodder or Noble Niners.

Match 121: Link vs. Ganondorf

Link 22974
Ganondorf 5874

Normally I hate adjusted X-Stats, because there's no scientific way to determine the adjustments and then you end up with the "sharps" being unanimously wrong about Magus-Knuckles 2005 because Magus was just arbitrarily assigned his 2003 value (which was earned directly against a Link far weaker than 2004's) to account for the SFF Bracket of 2004. But then you get a near-quadrupling in Round 5 and it becomes impossible to defend the sanctity of raw X-Stats. Clearly Ganondorf's stronger than his raw numbers will suggest. But how much stronger? Who knows. About the only clear takeaway from this is that Zelda was able to withstand SFF from Link far better than Ganondorf did. Before this contest, it wasn't necessarily clear which one was stronger, though it seemed more likely even then to be Zelda. Now there's no doubt; Zelda came out looking like the new #3 character on the site.
