Topic	2013 Character Battle X-Stats: The Adjusted Version (now with less Draven)
KamikazePotato 03/29/17 9:19:14 PM #1:	We haven't had a good ole' fashioned LOL X-STATS topic in a while. Let's fix that! This is way overdue and I doubt many people will care by this point, but no one ever made this, sooo... Methodlogy used: 1. Leon's 2010 x-stats were used as a basis for a lot of stuff. I found them to be really consistent and useful. 2. The aim of these stats was to calculate 'true' character strength - a.k.a. with rally power removed. These standings won't matter quite as much as they did in the past, obviously, but it was a fun project for me to do. 3. Consistent showings were prized over one-and-done ridiculous matches. Mewtwo may have slaughtered Sephiroth and Sonic but he also failed to get 60% on Phoenix Wright and has never had results anywhere close to that strong in the past. I took into account the circumstances of matches heavily when deciding which showings were 'legit'. I probably got a few things wrong, but overall I think my choices were solid. 4. With that said, Vivi is probably overrated in these stats due to the circumstances of his match, but I don't feel comfortable adjusting him down further. His result against Mario is amazing even when taking a rally into account (he was holding off Mario at the start even before things really kicked in) and he beat Squall easily next round. I gave Mario 100% of Ganondorf's votes and had to adjust Vivi even further down to account for extra rally votes - and he still ended up where he is. So while he still might be overrated, he's more or less earned his spot. 5. Pokemon were inconsistent and strange. No surprise there! The exception was Pikachu, who performed more or less as he should have each round based on differing results. 6. Yes, Cloud/Sephiroth/Vincent really did do that badly. I completely wrote off the upsets against them and their prior results still sucked hardcore. And yes, Tifa did do that well. I don't get it either. 7. Finally - Draven was adjusted using his result against Jak before the rally kicked in. That simple! So without further ado: Link -- 50 Solid Snake -- 45.52 Mario -- 45.12 Samus -- 43.85 Mega Man -- 40.04382 Sonic the Hedgehog -- 39.54 Tifa Lockheart -- 39.27206 Crono -- 39.24 Pikachu -- 38.259 Sephiroth -- 37.23 Cloud -- 36.86 Vivi -- 36.36 Mega Man X -- 36.35 Squall Leonhart -- 36.35 Auron -- 35.04 L-Block -- 35.04 Yoshi -- 35.02 Luigi -- 35.01 Zero (Mega Man X) -- 34.99 Squirtle -- 34.93 Bowser -- 34.41 Kirby -- 34.08 Pokemon Trainer Red -- 34 Big Boss -- 33.24 Zelda -- 32.76 Charizard -- 32.76 Mewtwo -- 32.63 GlaDOS -- 32.4 Ganondorf -- 32.15 Sora -- 32.1222564 Dante -- 31.54 Kefka -- 31.37 Ryu -- 31.10833 Commander Shepard -- 30.4 Terra Branford -- 30.017664 Aerith Gainsborough -- 29.68256 Leon Kennedy -- 29.38 Fox McCloud -- 29.36 Magikarp -- 29.35212006 Zack Fair -- 29.042346 Rikku -- 28.943728 Epona -- 28.93 Pokemon Trainer Blue -- 28.7728 Dragonborn -- 28.7314391 Sub-Zero -- 28.66353 Vincent Valentine -- 28.61 Weighted Companion Cube -- 28.607824 The Boss -- 28.229964 Amaterasu -- 28.09855 Zidane Tribal -- 27.490264 Scorpion -- 27.48380258 ?
