Hot take: Now that Ultimate has been released, and ONLY now that Ultimate has been released, I would take Brawl > Smash 4 Yeah, I could definitely see that being the case. I'd probably be tempted to pull the trigger on Brawl > SSB4 for the same reason. --- |

SMRPG > SF2 is still the one result that baffles me the most that people were shocked by it I mean it was a Square RPG starring Mario what else do you need for the game to be popular --- |

| LeonhartFour 12/18/18 10:26:22 PM #401 | could've beaten Sonic in 2007 if he doesn't get announced for Brawl mid-contest too and now he'll probably never have a real chance to beat a Noble Niner again alas --- |

| LeonhartFour 12/18/18 10:23:36 PM #397 | transience posted... short changed how? he had like 14 matches against Snake Yeah, but none when Snake was beatable after he had KH in his corner! Literally got Snake in 2002, 2006, 2007, and 2010, augh. I mean, if Squall vs. Snake 2006 happens after KH2 but before Brawl/MGS4 hype, what could have been --- |
| Topic | transience presents: the 75 most important matches in contest history |
| LeonhartFour 12/18/18 10:14:39 PM #393 | and yet I voted for Vivi and would do it again I mean it was unfortunate for Squall because he went from an ideal setup to one he couldn't possibly win so I can't fully embrace Vivi > Mario the way most people do maybe he would've lost anyway but it would've been nice to see him get the chance because it feels like he always gets short changed when he gets a shot at Noble Niners --- |

| LeonhartFour 12/18/18 10:07:17 PM #470 | What was the one match we got wrong in RR? I'd guess Red/Blue vs. Ryu/Ken. Maybe Alucard/Dracula vs. Frog/Magus? --- |
| Topic | transience presents: the 75 most important matches in contest history |
| LeonhartFour 12/18/18 10:04:08 PM #390 | KamikazePotato posted... Brawl/Melee was a good match but it was a bad result and it resulted in the worst possible final. Melee wins and I'm like 90% confident we get Melee vs. FFX. Yeah, maybe, but I won't feel bad about the entrant I prefer winning or voting for them regardless of the fallout. *Proud Shepard voter in Link/Draven/Shepard* --- |
| Topic | transience presents: the 75 most important matches in contest history |
| LeonhartFour 12/18/18 9:58:03 PM #387 | I was pretty worried about FFX from the start when it took forever to actually take the lead away from Majora, even after the Power Hour ended. But Brawl > Melee was still a great result regardless of the collateral damage. Might be the last time we really saw the board get up in arms over a result that wasn't caused by a rally or blatant cheating. --- |
| Topic | transience presents: the 75 most important matches in contest history |
| LeonhartFour 12/18/18 9:52:32 PM #384 | I mean I firmly believe FFX would have beaten Melee or Brawl had it gotten there it would have had an easier time with Brawl but people were dumb and thought it didn't have a good enough chance so they decided to fall back on Zelda --- |
| Topic | transience presents: the 75 most important matches in contest history |
| LeonhartFour 12/18/18 9:48:34 PM #380 | Brawl > Melee a top tier result probably should be on this list somewhere too --- |

| LeonhartFour 12/18/18 9:31:09 PM #376 | Kotetsu534 posted... FFX/MM killed me. I've never been emotionally invested in contests but I was that year. My favourite game was within two matches of winning a contest! And it went down with 49.9% having led for most of the poll. Gutting loss. At least Brawl didn't win. I guess I'm one of the few people who would've rather had Brawl over Majora because the idea that we needed plucky underdog Zelda to "save the day" was just the worst. Such a disappointing end to what had been an otherwise great contest. --- |

| LeonhartFour 12/18/18 9:20:58 PM #223 | I mean, Mega Man may have been weaker in 2006, but nearly 46% on him is no joke any year. Sora looked pretty darn strong most years until 2010, honestly. --- |
| Topic | transience presents: the 75 most important matches in contest history |
| LeonhartFour 12/18/18 9:18:58 PM #373 | Nah, that's about right. It was a close match that went almost exactly the way many people expected. --- |

| LeonhartFour 12/18/18 4:16:45 PM #213 | Haste_2 posted... Didn't Samus get a ZSS pic against Snake? What if a ZSS pic actually makes Samus stronger now? Unfortunately, the pics on creative's site are in pieces and scattered, so I'm not able to check on what pics were used in which matches. Yep, the ZSS pic was the one she got against Snake. But even when she got it in other contests beyond 2006, there wasn't any real noticeable difference in her performance. --- |

HaRR insisted for years that Advent Children's release mid-contest artificially boosted Vincent there. but man this page is full of painful matches for me so far --- |

| LeonhartFour 12/18/18 3:17:21 PM #201 | Ulti_PCA posted... And lastly, that's a fantastic picture of Phoenix. It's not a bad picture, but it would unmistakably hurt him because it's not why he's popular and AJ is the black sheep of the series largely because of what they did to Phoenix in that game. Pictures evoke feelings that can lead you to vote a certain way, and that would evoke negative feelings from a lot of people. --- |
| Topic | Contest Stats and Discussion - Part 1323 |
| LeonhartFour 12/18/18 3:15:19 PM #200 | Well yeah, but Ganondorf isn't popular because of Ganon, just like Snake isn't popular because of Metal Gear 1 or 2. --- |

| Topic | transience presents: the 75 most important matches in contest history |
| LeonhartFour 12/17/18 11:29:42 PM #278 | Yeah, there was definitely a concerted effort to try to get Brawl to lose in the final. Majora jumped out to a huge lead early and then Brawl chopped away at it the rest of the match, but the damage was done at that point. *sigh* Should've been FFX. --- |
