Contest Stats and Discussion - Part 514

Karma Hunter | Posted 10/9/2007 10:03:35 PM | message detail
Big Boss' percentage against Mario/Pac-Man/Wander at the hour: 24.61%
Big Boss' percentage against Mario/Magus/Phoenix Wright at this time: 23.51%

I want to see last round's percentage outdone damn it

Samus 2K5 is horribly underrated, and is indirectly stronger than Mario. KHF sucks and never existed either, much like my package.

Okay I wasn't being exactly serious when talking about BB exceeding his Round 1 percentage but I'll take it

Here's to hoping Big Boss gets a young pic next round too and naturally goes on to the next round

More like Raiden > Snake in the finals! This proof of the pic factor can only help him!

When Raiden gets his MGS2 pic in two days he's upsetting Crono... 40%+!

Solid Snake had the same pic in every match in 2k3.

...poor guy.

Of course, he could always get this picture and beat both Mario and Sephiroth.

Seriously Ceej should have at least let Snake have a chance in 2k4 that doing worse than Zero crap wasn't cool

So if we had Young Ocelot in round 2 would he have beaten Marcus Fenix? I'm thinking yes.

Snake actually got a pretty good pic against Mega Man that year. Maybe his best pic yet.

It's just that, you know, he was also being blasted in the face...poor guy. Gets his best pic only to be completely outdone.

Seriously though, given how bad Magus and Frog have performed this year, I'm thinking Zero has a shot of getting within a few percentage points of Corno.

YoAriel33 | Posted 10/9/2007 10:39:29 PM | message detail
Holy Toledo. This is made more impressive by the fact that Big Boss may hold up relatively well in the day. He has an infinitely more recognizable and appealing picture, and Mario will probably take most of his daytime gains from a collapsing Magus and a Phoenix that treads dangerously close to 10%.

So yeah assuming Sonic in Brawl is legit and spreads well enough think Sonic can avoid getting upset and make it to the finals?

Or beat upend Snake in a round or so?

I can't wait to see his rematch with Sub-Zero -- it's essentially the same match with two other pieces of fodder. if Sonic gets a way higher percentage, I'm going to call boost.

want to see this so-called trailer first.

Wow. This could have huge implications. I mean, it turned Ike and Meta-Knight from nobodies to (almost, in Ike's case) winners.

Ultimate proof that match pics make a difference. I love Magus, but I have to admit this is funny.

Anyone think it was possible that Big Boss could have gotten 2nd even without Naked Snake? Obviously not with 25% but considering Magus is sucking it up so bad right now and is bound to fall even further during the ASV...
