D.Va finishing with about a 7 point advantage with registered users is highly unusual because it's a non-Nintendo character pulling this off. We'll see what happens next round when D.Va faces a Nintendo character. Fox barely does better among registered users. This is our closest match to being nearly even among registered users and anonymous users. Waluigi does do better among registered users, but it's not an extreme split like what might be expected if we had Cloud or Sephiroth in Aerith's place. Guess this shows FFVII's female characters are much better at avoiding anti-votes than the male characters.

TsunamiXXVIII 10/28/18 8:57:25 PM #417:	Wow. These, uh, these anti-votes are something. I mainly took the upset because I figured Pac-Man's always been weak against anything with any sort of fanbase and relies on the weakness of his opponent to get wins. And, er, then another Sans win because KH gets shat on so much that I didn't even expect Riku to be there...and then another because honestly, I'd take any of the Sans/Pac-Man/Bayonetta/Riku quartet over any of the Rosalina/Ryu/Simon trio (no I'm not even going to dignify the other member with anything more than a "LOL there was a year between 2014 and 2016?" And yeah, I know Undertale was also released in The Year That Must Not Be Named but I'm still just so mad at how aggressively vomit-inducing radio was that year and literally 80% of good songs that received significant radio play that year were 2014 holdovers, but even that can't be enjoyed as a whole because of Uptown Fuck, no that's not a typo, seriously fuck that year so hard)...and then Sans is in Round 4 and the bandwagon is rolling. I'm so screwed. I should've just taken Rosalina > Sans in Round 3. Fuck, I probably would've avoided this if I didn't have so little faith in anything Square that I took Bayonetta > Riku. Shit, Bayonetta > Riku is probably happening but it's going to cost me more points than if I'd called it wrong, because I feel like I'd have called KH to stop Sans before he could get rolling. --- "Someday I'll catch up, and then you'll all be surprised!"

AxemRedRanger 10/28/18 9:10:36 PM #427:	Ryu Hatabusa: -Was never anything at all special in the old 1-on-1s. -His big win over Riku and Roxas in 2007 is not impressive in light of how Riku has only looked worse and worse since. -Beating Zero in 2008 stunned people but Pit and Dedede probably leached Zero and as Zero almost lost to Vivi that year I'd say 2008 Zero was pretty bad anyways. -Hayabusa's 2010 victory over Master Chief isn't impressive in retrospect either. We blamed him getting killed against Mega Man in the following round on the sprite but it's reasonably in line with his previous 1-on-1 performances. -Hayabusa sort of held up in 2013 but Kefka and Zack probably leeched each other.

NeoElfboy 10/28/18 9:22:37 PM #432:	I'm surprised people would take Simon over Rosalina. Galaxy isn't the biggest thing on GameFAQs, but I'd certainly take it over Castlevania 1 or 4. And that's pretty much the main argument people have against Rosalina, that Galaxy isn't that big. She's certainly a well-liked character by SMG players. Plus her presence outside her main source games (Mario Kart, Smash 4) is greater than Simon's. Feeling good about Geralt winning two matches now. Also yay, I'm on the leaderboard. Probably gonna get 3/4 today, which... might let me stay on?
