Shulk was so close to surviving another day and having a reasonably possible shot at getting through. Once again lefty kills my fav character at the very last second :(

---

such is the will of Count Bleck
---

You deliberately chose not to save Count Bleck last round!

Thank goodness

Lefty is the hero we needed, if not the one we deserve

Let's all honor Shulk's sacrifice by continuing to vote for Count Bleck.

---

I didnt want to say anything because I didnt want to influence the voting, but people booting Bleck and immuning anyone other than Missile did not have a winning strategy.

It was so painful watching multiple people immune Shulk and boot Bleck. I wanted so badly to tell them the mistake they were making!

110 - Count Bleck (Super Paper Mario)
110 - Garrus Vakarian (Mass Effect)

Total Votes: 44
Tiebreaker: Count Bleck over Garrus by way of total ballots won (24 vs 20)

This is actually a legit dark horse run, not like boring B8 darlings Kyle and Missile who topped their groups round 1.

---

Wow I forget if I voted in that Garrus/Bleck match but I wonder what the timeline is if I did

---

Ok I checked I did no timeline splits here

---

The madman did it, lol. If you told me at the start of this that Count Bleck would be a top 10 contender I wouldn't believe it.

Don't expect Missile to drop, but I hope one of Bowser/Dedede advances. Bowser seems to have it on lock but you never know.

---

come on Dedede, survive this round, you're the one true king of this game

---

Tomorrow should be a Samus v Snake fight but if anyone's going to make up that lost immune ground it's Phoenix, especially now Edgey is out of the picture!

---

Mama mia...

Hope Samus can break this trend.

---

It's time for all of the Noble Nine left to go down

---

Its been a couple days since I complained about this rounds impact on the contest.

Kyle, Aerith, Bleck, Glados, Boss, Miles6 of the top 10. Joining that all star cast will be Missile, Dedede, Phoenix, and Samus/Snake.

This contest looked set up for a great run. But when the eight of the top 10 is underdogs because of a bad rule set up, its just a shame. Sure we might get a fresh faced unexpected winner, but more likely well see Samus/Snake or Phoenix just run away with it (if its 1v1s in the final round).

---

Kyle, Aerith, Bleck, Glados, Boss, Miles

I don't see a problem here!

also Miles definitely can't be called an underdog on board 8

---

Glados and Aeris both got in through immunes alone, and Bowser is probably getting in over Dedede. The only proper underdogs I think are Bleck and maybe Kyle or Missile (but those two are arguable).

---

I mean Missile just seems like a popular character in this contest/on this board given its performances thus far?

---

I don't really understand the problem, I like this group of characters more than most, why would other people not be the same as me

Yeah I dont think Hyde or Missile are as much underdogs as they are niche maybe?

---

My favorite thing is seeing The Boss do well

Easily the best written villain in video games IMO

---

I'll admit I'm surprised Aerith is in the top 10 over Cloud or Tifa, but she probably benefitted somewhat from Remake

I don't really want to judge this round until it's completed because there are some big names left, but so far none of the elims have been as big as, say, Kirby or Vivi going out last round

---

Aerith benefitted massively from Remake I would wager. I really liked her and it seemed she was mostly a hit

Man, I have the urge to play it again! Such a good game.

Also this. Still one of the best characters around

Mega Man and Mario are noble nine.

Mega Man and Mario are noble nine.

But both of them going out here makes sense considering their results in past Board 8 contests.

Now, Sonic losing in Round 1, on the other hand, was a shocker.

Wow Dedede doesn't even have a lead going into the final day, poor guy is gonna get smashed!

---

I don't particularly like these results, so I guess I'm gonna stop voting. I'm not mad at the contest or think the rules need to be changed or anything. I'm just disappointed in you Board 8.

---

Damn, Alucard seemed like the most safe character that day.

Battle of the Kings, I guess.

I'm sorry you don't understand the greatness that is Missile and I wish you better opinions in the future.

Maybe colliding has yet to play Ghost Trick!

I encourage anyone who doesn't know Missile to play Ghost Trick.

---

Missile and Kyle Hyde are both amazing and Im glad they have a niche following here!

But yeah if you havent played Ghost Trick check it out when you can! Its a fantastic game.

---

I only half played through Hotel Dusk but it was pretty cool from what I remember. Hyde is pretty dece.

---

not excited to see the last Kirby character go out

yeah, really sucks that Kirby got such a stacked group in round 4.

---

Bowser is actually my preferred winner for the whole contest. Should be a good matchup with Dedede. (Do we just immune the next round? Since it takes precedence the boots are pretty useless).

I am also looking forward to Snake v Samus next round on the other side. Could be the highlight matchup of the contest.

---

I'd like Samus or Count Bleck to win, but there aren't many characters left I'd dislike as winners.

---

Bleh heh heh! Bleck!
