half_silver28 03/09/19 8:59:54 PM #37:	Not my intention to imply Kefka is the most iconic FF villain. I meant that he is the villain who best represents the series. The seventh match of Group 2 is: (7)Tails vs (10)Mike Haggar As the first and most recurring ally of Sonic, Tails is a very popular and iconic character. He started the stable of supporting Sonic characters that would grow massive over the course of the series. His unique ability to fly and the fact that a second player could control him in Sonic 2 was groundbreaking for the time, as far as cooperative play in platformers goes. His cuteness and innocence also make him popular among fans, and he is always there to help out Sonic with flight and various machines to take down Eggman. Plus, his full name is a pun : ) While Cody and Guy are popular, the most well-known and influential Final Fight character is the wrestling mayor himself. He set the standard for grappling characters in beat-em-up games, and even in fighting games - Zangief borrows some of his signature moves like the iconic lariat. He is the mayor who takes to the streets to clean up his city and rescue his daughter, and does it in style. Not to mention how popular his design is, despite being pretty simple. Haggar is a meme-tastic badss with many beat-em-up and fighting game appearances to his name, and was the lead of the series that defined the beat-em-up. Haggar's strength is tough to judge, since he was SFF'd by Jill Valentine in his only contest appearance. However I think that Tails will be too much for him, seeing as he did decently well in 2018. 59% win for Tails. The eighth match of Group 2 is: (2)Sephiroth vs (15)Jecht* Sephiroth is probably the single defining antagonist in the RPG genre. You knew he was not a good guy from the first appearance in Final Fantasy VII, but his goals were unclear. His design is dark and perhaps overly edgy, but he is exceedingly cool and popular nonetheless. Many other RPG villains take inspiration from his design. He is an iconic example of 90s edginess. Many of his sudden appearances in FF7 are among the most iconic in gaming - the most well-known being THAT scene. He is the whole package: overly cool sword, ice cold demeanor, an iconic storyline and a rocking final boss theme. He even manages to have a second iconic boss fight in Kingdom Hearts, which is noted for its difficulty. Few villains have the pure style and presence that Sephiroth has. Surprised to see Jecht here? You shouldn't be - he IS the best after all. He is the standard for bad dads in RPGs: both in the quality of his parenting and in his alignment in the story of Final Fantasy X. The father-son rivalry he shares with Tidus is one of the most iconic in gaming, and his gruff, manly design and character makes him very popular among fans. His role as an antagonist in the game gives Tidus a conflicted set of motivations, where he wants to both defeat his father and earn his approval. In spite of his rough demeanor, Jecht's story in the game is very tragic and iconic among RPG villains. There are also some great memes associated with him, due to just how MANLY he is. Obviously Sephiroth is going to win here, but the question is how much he SFF's Jecht. Even though both are Final Fantasy antagonists, they are extremely different characters. I think Jecht will hold up decently, and almost avoid the doubling. 67% for Sephiroth. Characters remaining - Capcom: 17 entrants Square, Nintendo: 15 entrants Konami: 6 entrants Namco, Sega: 4 entrants Midway Games: 4 entrants Atlus, Valve, Naughty Dog: 3 entrants Blizzard: 2 entrants SNK, Enix, Platinum Games: 2 entrants Bioware, Bungie: 1 entrant left The first and second matches of Group 3 are: (1)Nintendo vs (16)Black Isle Studios and (8)Sega vs (9)SNK --- B8 Waifu ranking - http://pastebin.com/qnUpLnDA <cite>half_silver28 posted [p:918713817] in Most Influ...
