1: We have already seen this match. These two points contradict themselves considering a stronger looking Bowser put up a lower percentage than the current one against a weaker looking Kirby.

Ness really benefits from low votals 1. There's no result to ever suggest that Earthbound benefits from small votals. 2. Lucina's 35% on Auron really isn't that great. These characters have all performed consistently better that in the past. Marth would do better than that and Phoenix already easily beat him. --- Black Turtle did a pretty good job. ...

Bowser really IS the villain here. I would normally call this a "choke" performance, but I mean, it's freaking Kirby! What other character can be more lovable than Kirby?!

@Yuri_LowelI Hey man Charizard is awesome! But it would be hilarious to see him beat Kirby! Charizard was awesome back in the day. I was rooting for him when he beat down bowser. But theres no consistency. Might as well put blastoise in there to see what he can do. Im just saying pokemon entries seem random and for their time with these contests. Charizard definitely got weaker. Next contest hell be struggling to beat the likes of Nathan drake. --- ... Copied to Clipboard!

2. Lucina's 35% on Auron really isn't that great. These characters have all performed consistently better that in the past. Marth would do better than that and Phoenix already easily beat him. I'd still call Lucina's performance an improvement from 2013 where she got 37.17% against Dracula (and then Dracula gets 32.33% on Sonic). She is clearly stronger than in 2013 when Fire Emblem: Awakening was only about 5 months old and not as many people have played the game. Lucina also got into Smash later on. --- Luster Soldier --- ~Shield Bearer~ | ~Data Analyst~ Popular at school, but not as cool as BK_Sheikah00, Guru Champ! ... Copied to Clipboard!

I think that Kirby has always done better in multi-way polls, so something like a "sore thumb factor" seems reasonable.

What we're seeing here is the Bowsette boost on full display. Bowser underperformed against 2B because 2B reverse SFFed that boost. Without another hot girl in the poll, Bowser is much stronger. I don't think this will benefit Mario as much, though it may help a bit.

I mean Bowser has been stronger than Kirby in every recorded xstat we have. We're surprised by this result I think because of what Kirby has done this contest but maybe we shouldn't be given all the past results we have

Alucard beat 2 Ninty and 2 Square characters in one contest. What a studly month for him.

Fun fact if Kirby moves the % in the other direction the same amount Bowser did in the positive direction on the so called "no reason to doubt this match result changing ever" match he wins.
Fun fact 2 the 2005 match was used as a deciding factor while people were lecturing on using 5 year old stats as being too dated Fun fact 3 if you say no match result changes ever Bowser lost to Charizard in 2010 by more than Kirby lost to Bowser I mean if Bowser wins he wins, good job, but none of the logic in picking him really strikes as consistent or valid to me. --- No problem!
