| PostContestUlti 12/04/20 12:18:48 AM #32: | Division 3 Round 1: Falco, GLaDOS, Vincent, and Wander Falco - 37158 [26.82%] GLaDOS - 27708 [20%] Vincent - 63262 [45.67%] Wander - 10405 [7.51%] Total Votes - 138533 One day after seeing Neku get destroyed, I got to watch another garbage can get squished. Good stuff. Wander and his game are both <i>terrible.</i> Beyond that, this was yet another in a pretty long line of super predictable matches. Everyone knew Vincent would cruise to first place in this one, because he had beaten Crono in 2007. I'll spare people the rundown of moronic arguments everyone had about the Noble Nine when that happened, because everyone involved was acting like children over something completely meaningless. Vincent's job this contest was to kick names, take ass, and get ready for the potential Crono rematch down the line that we all wanted. Could he have performed better here? Maybe, but I've been doing this so long that I don't fret over some percentage fluctuations in early rounds anymore. I don't care. Whether Vincent scored 45% or 48% or 50% or whatever does not matter to me. The second place choice was also very predictable, though when I checked the wayback machine, I was surprised to see some people thinking GLaDOS could beat Falco here. Maaaaaaaaybe if you did this match during the apex of Portal fandom and Brawl didn't exist, sure, but in a BrawlFEAR world? No chance. Falco was always going to get an easy second place here. Brawl was that relevant to people's predictions back then. This actually helped set up a really fun round 2 match, which we'll get to when the time comes. --- ... Copied to Clipboard! |
