I have to say this result Samus is putting on Snake is one of the most confusing ones we've had so far. It just spits on the face of stats.

Before the match I had this notion that we had 5 characters kind of tied at #2 (Mario, Zelda, Snake, Samus and Cloud). They could beat each other in different orders but the stats were so close you could easily attribute it to SFF and rSFF.

Now Samus is beating Snake by nearly 57%. She's one or two tiers above him. What explains this?

Pic factor? But if not even Solid Shit could kill Snake does this (admitely bad) pic do such a big difference?

Zelda bandwagon? Would put Zelda at Snake's level and mario/Samus above. But have we ever had bandwagons grow so fast?

Insane rSFF between Mario and Samus? Like Samus is actually a tier above everyone else but when she faces Mario she folds like paper? Look, I believe in herarchy, but even then, hierarchy hasn't been THAT strong with the other characters.

What gives?
