(2) Leon Kennedy
(15) Dragonborn

Huh, I'm actually kinda surprised Dragonborn made it back in. He didn't do all that great last time. He put up a bad percentage against Tom Nook and Pyramid Head and got rocked by Tifa despite Yuna being in the poll. He's probably high fodder or a low midcarder, which isn't good enough to beat Leon here. Resident Evil 4 looked a bit weaker in the last Games Contest, and so I think it's possible Leon is, too, although he's got RE2make coming up and he's been in RE6 (right? I don't play RE games) since the last Character Battle. Either way, he wins easily.

Winner: Leon Kennedy
Odds: 95%

Division 2

(1) Zero
(16) Primrose

Wow, Zero got a 1 seed! I'm impressed. I guess people were paying attention to my MMX playthroughs in the SELF topic (</shameless SELF-promotion>)! He honestly hasn't looked super great in a contest in a while (although he did pretty well in CBIX, all things considered), but he shouldn't have any problems beating up on a character from an ensemble cast Switch RPG.

Winner: Zero
Odds: 100%

(8) Zidane Tribal
(9) Knuckles the Echidna

Relevant poll: https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/poll/3739-chaos-division-round-1-cecil-harvey-vs-knuckles

This was also in a day match, so it'd have probably been even closer in a night match. Knuckles has secretly been kinda bad for a long time. He almost got tripled by Samus in CBIX. In order to win, Knux has to hope Sonic Mania was worth a whole lot, and it probably wasn't. Either that, or he has to hope Modern Square has declined considerably in the last five years. That might be his best bet, actually, but it still might not be enough. I really, really want to pick him to win...but I can't.

Winner: Zidane
Odds: 65%

(5) Noctis Lucis Caelum
(12) Master Hand

Relevant poll: https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/poll/2004-triforce-division-round-1-kuja-vs-master-hand

I'm getting PTSD just thinking about the possibility Master Hand beating an overseeded Final Fantasy character again. I don't think Master Hand is strong at all. He got 60/40'd by Robotnik in the next round back in the Villains Contest. I honestly don't know what people think of Noctis. FFXV won GOTY here two years ago, but that was a pretty weak field. Still, it might be a good sign for FF franchise voting, which might be enough to carry the day. I'm picking Noctis, but make no mistake: I'm legitimately terrified of Master Hand winning.

Winner: Noctis Lucis Caelum
Odds: 55%

(4) Monika
(13) Wario

Speaking of legitimately terrified, it's Monika! Again, this isn't the place to come for rally analysis, so I'm not going to be picking on the basis of whether DDLC fanatics will get behind her here. I think she got a good first opponent to get one kick started though (Seriously, why do the rally-able entrants get winnable first round matches? If Draven gets something better than Jak/Chie or Undertale gets something better than ME3, they're both probably eliminated round 1. Heck, even L-Block got a really fortuitous setup in 2007).

Anyway, nobody really cares about Wario, but he's probably a low midcarder because he's a well known Mario character. He enjoys this weird cult status despite being a Mario character because of WarioWare, but he folds at the first sign of real competition. Monika's not that, at least not at her base strength.

Winner: Wario
Odds: 85%
