Evillordexdeath 10/13/18 8:47:22 PM #179:	I think I can explain why Roy hasn't made it before. It's because neither Fire Emblem nor Smash fans will think of him right away when asked to name their favorite characters. He doesn't do much to stand out in either game. In FE6 he's a standard Lord with lackluster combat and in Melee he's largely overshadowed by Marth. People seem to really dislike the clone/echo fighter characters too in my experience. <cite>Evillordexdeath posted [p:910481391] in KP's (In-D...

NeoElfboy 10/13/18 11:41:49 PM #181:	Roy Koopa certainly deserves a contest slot more tbqh. In seriousness, yeah it's pretty obvious why Roy doesn't really compete with Marth well in this. Marth is better in Melee (to the point where he became one of its faces), actually exists in Brawl, and actually exists in 4 (yes, yes, Roy got in 4 eventually, but it was quite a bit after launch and even then he's DLC only). He's probably weaker than one or two of the non-Smash FE characters like Lyn. --- The RPG Duelling League: www.rpgdl.com An unparalleled source for RPG information and discussion <cite>NeoElfboy posted [p:910489740] in KP's (In-D...

She's going to get a decent amount of support here because she's a fairly popular Mario character, but man is she (probably) going to fall flat on her face. I used a poll of Peach here because Peach is Rosalina's absolute ceiling of strength, and it's likely that she comes nowhere close. I've seen some people on the board here state that Rosalina will rival - if not exceed- Peach in strength because she's liked way more than Peach is, and that is the exact kind of trap logic that led to stuff like people thinking Luigi would be stronger than Mario. Barring extreme circumstances, the 'fan favorite' character is never stronger than the icon. https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/poll/5997-which-mario-character-is-your-all-time-favorite Rosalina won't be terrible but she'll be like (gonna pull a number out of my ass) 70% as strong as Peach, and honestly, I think Geralt could hang with Peach. Witcher 3 has performed well in the few polls we've seen it in so far, and the game has only grown since then. It's probably the most well-received game of the decade and even GameFAQs couldn't ignore that. A character's status as a 1 Seed isn't always indicative of strength, but it's still impressive that he managed to garner that much support without a big B8 push. And luckily for Geralt, he passes the GameFAQs Front Page test by being the most anime-looking western character we've ever had. White hair? Golden eyes? Fantasy armors/sword? Dude fits right in. Geralt has the potential to be a midcarder, and even if he doesn't end up that strong, I think he has enough to beat Rosalina. Unless he flops. You never know with Western characters. Result: Geralt: 58% Rosalina - 42% Geralt has a 75% of winning --- Division 6 Match 2 Ryu Hayabusa vs. Simon Belmont https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/poll/3805-mushroom-division-round-2-ryu-hayabusa-vs-master-chief https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/poll/5178-character-battle-ix-division-4-round-1-kefka-vs-zack-vs-ryu https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/poll/3769-varia-division-round-1-ezio-vs-simon-belmont https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/poll/5187-character-battle-ix-division-5-round-1-freeman-vs-hades-vs Ryu Hayabusa is one of the most volatile non-joke characters in Contest history, rivaling Kefka even. His strength is entirely based on having a cool ninja design (what, you think people have actually PLAYED Ninja Gaiden?) so his results fluctuate wildly based on how weeby GameFAQs is feeling at that time. He's gotten SFFd by Solid Snake twice despite not being in the same series simply because Snake out-cools him, and god forbid if you put him in sprite form. Even at his worst, though, I struggle to see him losing this. Simon wasn't awful before but High Fodder doesn't beat Midcarders without a serious boost, and I don't think Smash Ultimate giving more relevancy helps that much. He's not going to be stronger than Alucard and Alucard wouldn't stomp Hayabusa. Probably. Hayabusa is all over the place and he's definitely past his prime. Honestly, writing this out made me a lot less confident in this pick than I was before, but Simon's previous showings simply weren't good enough for me to think he takes this. He needs a big Smash boost and Hayabusa flopping on the same day which is...possible. Don't fail me, random ninja on the GameFAQs front page! Result: Ryu Hayabusa: 55% Simon Belmont - 45% Ryu Hayabusa has a 75% of winning --- Black Turtle did a pretty good job. <cite>KamikazePotato posted [p:910489823] in KP's (In-D...

Geralt has the potential to be a midcarder, and even if he doesn't end up that strong, I think he has enough to beat Rosalina. Unless he flops. You never know with Western characters. Result: Geralt: 58% Rosalina - 42% Geralt has a 75% of winning --- Division 6 Match 2 Ryu Hayabusa vs. Simon Belmont https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/poll/3805-mushroom-division-round-2-ryu-hayabusa-vs-master-chief https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/poll/5178-character-battle-ix-division-4-round-1-kefka-vs-zack-vs-ryu https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/poll/3769-varia-division-round-1-ezio-vs-simon-belmont https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/poll/5187-character-battle-ix-division-5-round-1-freeman-vs-hades-vs Ryu Hayabusa is one of the most volatile non-joke characters in Contest history, rivaling Kefka even. His strength is entirely based on having a cool ninja design (what, you think people have actually PLAYED Ninja Gaiden?) so his results fluctuate wildly based on how weeby GameFAQs is feeling at that time. He's gotten SFFd by Solid Snake twice despite not being in the same series simply because Snake out-cools him, and god forbid if you put him in sprite form. Even at his worst, though, I struggle to see him losing this. Simon wasn't awful before but High Fodder doesn't beat Midcarders without a serious boost, and I don't think Smash Ultimate giving more relevancy helps that much. He's not going to be stronger than Alucard and Alucard wouldn't stomp Hayabusa. Probably. Hayabusa is all over the place and he's definitely past his prime. Honestly, writing this out made me a lot less confident in this pick than I was before, but Simon's previous showings simply weren't good enough for me to think he takes this. He needs a big Smash boost and Hayabusa flopping on the same day which is...possible. Don't fail me, random ninja on the GameFAQs front page! Result: Ryu Hayabusa: 55% Simon Belmont - 45% Ryu Hayabusa has a 75% of winning</quote> ... Copied to Clipboard!

I love polls. No one cares about Pac-man, but everyone knows him. He's the ultimate character to vote for when you're apathetic about your options. Can Sans beat that? I definitely wouldn't be considering him if 2015 hadn't happened, but Undertale rather forcibly left a deep impression here. The game still doesn't have that much natural strength here, but you don't need that much to beat Pac-man. Sans will be getting a lot of anti-votes due to what happened in 2015, but few of those people would have voted him over Pac-man regardless, so... Eh. I probably take Pac-man to be naturally stronger than Sans. Sans probably doesn't beat Nathan Drake either. Buuuut Sans has the internet to fall back. I don't think that Sans does what Undertale did in 2015 simply because people don't get worked up over the same bandwagon twice, but he will get smaller scale rallies like what Pokemon characters get all the time, and I think that will be enough to tip the scales even with the new anti-rally stuff in place.

Division 6 Match 7 Shulk vs. Sub-Zero https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/poll/5176-character-battle-ix-division-4-round-1-shulk-vs-ratchet-vs https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/poll/3765-varia-division-round-1-tidus-vs-sub-zero This match sucks. Shulk is one of the characters I was most looking forward to seeing in action as I think he has many reasons to increase since 2013, but Sub-Zero is simply too high of a wall to climb. Feels like wasted potential but hey, someone has to get fed to an underseeded Sub-Zero each year. Shulk - 41% Sub-Zero - 59% Sub-Zero has a 95% chance of winning --- Division 6 Match 8 Ren Amamiya vs. Claire Redfield https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/poll/7069-whats-your-all-time-favorite-5-game https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/poll/6953-best-of-2017-game-of-the-year https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/poll/5204-character-battle-ix-division-7-round-1-chief-vs-yuna-vs Okay, time out. Can someone please contact Allen and ask him if 'Ren Amamiya' is going to be called Joker in the poll at all, and get his Joker outfit? Because like 90% of the Persona 5 fanbase is going to have no idea who this Ren guy is. That right there decides the match for me. If Joker actually gets to be Joker, then I think he probably wins.

It's possible that the gaming community is de-centralized enough that what I'm referring to as "the gaming community" is actually some subset thereof, but I cannot even remember the last time I've heard the Grand Theft Auto series even mentioned, much less talked about in any significant fashion. The Witcher is in a similar boat for me. GTA is a pretty big deal. Even on GameFAQs, GTA5 is competitive with Oblivion. That's not bad and it only needed to sell 90 million copies to get this far. --- This was not the best year for my bracket.
