Match CXLIX: (4) Zelda vs. (7) Mario
Zelda Defeated Ezio Auditore da Firenze, 75.33% - 24.67% Defeated The Boss, 70.70%, 29.30% Defeated Squall Leonhart, 63.32% - 36.68% Defeated Aerith Gainsborough, 62.19% - 37.81% Defeated Solid Snake, 50.32% - 49.68% Defeated Sonic the Hedgehog, 56.45% - 43.55% Defeated Mario, 50.91% - 49.09% Lost to Link, 36.44% - 63.56% Mario Defeated Sephiroth, 59.25% - 40.75% Defeated Samus Aran, 51.42% - 48.58% Lost to Zelda, 49.09% - 50.91% Defeated Samus Aran, 50.03% - 49.97% Defeated Cloud Strife, 50.1x-49.8x Analysis Zelda was able to hold Link off for about five minutes before crashing down to Earth. Overall, she did quite well, avoiding the brunt of the SFF hammer. Mario on the other hand is coming off of another close match. Will he be able to get his revenge on Zelda? That depends on whether or not Zelda retains her bandwagon. Her loss to Link was quite demoralizing to the point where it was quite clear she would lose again if she tried. At the same time, she only needs to retain a small portion of that bandwagon to hold off Mario whom is regaining his reputation of being a bit of a villain in these contests. You clutch out three wins over 15 years ago and youre branded a villain for life. If Cloud wins this match as he is leading and I dont have time to redo my analysis, Id give him a better chance at winning, but in the end, I still think Zelda has this. charmander6000s Bracket: Solid Snake > Mario charmander6000s Prediction: Zelda wins, 53.73% - 46.27% --- CBX - Today's Winner: Mario ...

There could be another Zelda picture hiding somewhere, but since I can only find two foregrounds and 1 background for each character, I'm assuming this is it.
One would think you would throw in a traditional Zelda to balance the two odd choices, but it's not like attention to detail has been had at all in the pic selection process at all this year. --- Agent Triple Zero at your service!

If this were any other character, I'd say Cloud's lead should be safe at this point since he's not actively facing a comeback and has been gaining/stalling.

94 votes in 14 updates is a huge ask when both sides are only pulling ~40 an update. That's going to need Mario to have some huge spikes or start lopping off consistently which he's showing no sign of doing

I'm actually really curious about Sheik. I actually submitted one myself, and I think there's potential for Sheik to be just as strong.
Just, put it alongside an Ocarina or BotW Zelda, not Toon Zelda. --- Agent Triple Zero at your service! This line reserved for the true greatone, the 2018 Guru Contest winner. http://thengamer.com/guru/bracket.php?id=40 ... Copied to Clipboard!
