transiences Analysis

Man, what do you do here? What a bizarre final. Zelda clearly has a bandwagon behind her at this point. She's grown in strength from the character who only got 70% on The Boss. Surely Mario could have managed more? Then again, who knows. It's tough to get those astronomical numbers this year. Everything is so flat, with the exception of Link.

This is obviously a fanbase overlap match and Link already quadrupled Ganondorf. Zelda is different though. She should get doubled but, weirdly enough, she's the force of change in the contests this year. She's the one beating Snake and Sonic and Mario and probably Mario again. In a neutral environment, this is probably a doubling, but I think Zelda does better than that since she's new blood, or more accurately, gamefaqs's idea of new blood

transience's prediction: Link with 59.94%

Leonharts Analysis

So this is where weve arrived after ten contests, huh? Literally Link vs. Zelda in the finals of the Legends Division. I wouldnt be surprised if Allen saw this and decided it was time to wash his hands of Character Battles (or at least expand the field, darn it!). I dont even know what to make of this match. As incredible of a run as Zelda has had (perhaps the greatest run in contest history, period), its hard to imagine she can even come close to Link.

Really, this match is all about how well Zelda holds up. At the very least, she shouldnt fold as hard as Ganondorf did. Can she do better than Pikachu, even though this is a same series matchup? She might have built up enough of a bandwagon at this point to counteract the normal amount of SFF Link would apply in this situation. This is all just guesswork at this point though, so whatever.

Leonharts Vote: Zelda

Leonharts Prediction: Link with 62.26%

Kleenexs Analysis

Here it is, the final everyone has been waiting for, Zelda vs. Zelda. The fact that Zelda is even here is nothing short of miraculous, and Ill be honest Ive enjoyed her run and Im kinda happy to see her here, despite the obvious homogeneity of this match. She has been able to rise to her opponents level a few times this contest, and against pretty much anyone else I think she could do it again, but not here. The King will not be denied, and Zelda is going to have to have to step down from the throne to allow Link his rightful place at the top. There are three ways Zelda has a shot here - 1) A massive amount of rSFF, the likes of which weve never seen, 2) She catches a pretty big rally, or 3) People still dont know that Links name is Link, and they see him in the picture and vote for Zelda en masse. All pretty unlikely. Shell still probably do better than Cloud, though.

Kleenexs prediction: Link with 60%

Tsunamis Analysis

Welcome back to HentaiFAQs! Under normal circumstances, you wouldnt even entertain the idea of a side character losing to the main character in a same franchise SFF matchup (unless Tidus ever manages to run into another FFX character, and even then Id probably pick Tidus against anyone other than Auron even though I firmly believe hes indirectly weaker than at least two other characters from his game.) But this is a different world we live in, one where Noble Niners can get TJFd by characters from their own games. Of course, you have to take a little caution with that one because Sephiroth is the lone villain of the Noble Nine and hero > villain in most cases, but that was still a reversal of past results.
