I had this idea earlier and since we were talking about character placements earlier, moved up the timetable on finishing putting this together - just a dump of each game's playable characters best placements in SMFFFC history.

-Only went numbered titles IV through XV excluding XI and XIV
-Included some spinoff playables but nothing for Revenant Wings or After Years since I don't know anything about them
-Didn't include "temp" party characters
-Did include Ardyn because he's probably the best character from XV and he was playable in his DLC so good enough

So yeah obviously missing a lot of "big" names with good contest placements but strictly just looking at real playable characters, here's what we got. The picture conversion on my game placements looked like complete garbage, man I don't want this one looking that bad (edit: ah it still looks bad, whatever)

https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/a/user_image/3/1/3/AAC56kAADt3p.jpg

Green shading indicates a character who attained or tied their best placement previously in this contest.

The biggest flaw in this being that it purely looks at "placement" so a good chunk of these are oldstats era placements which obscure potential garbageness, but whatever... it's at least something for now, maybe will update it for percentages some other time.

Some stuff to think about for next year...

I feel like the most obscure dffooer has to be Keiss due to being a supporting character with Crystal Bearers sales, but the most "wtf you actually picked them of all people" choices are Braska & Dorgann

Braska tho has the extra layer of "... you couldn't think of any other X characters???"

although also wild that pretty well the entire cast of Type-0 got in

The number (and lower quality) of characters getting in before Rikku is truly hilarious.

So I instantly regretted the previously table I threw up so have now redone it to only show newstats era. 11 contests including the latest so it's a pretty relevant sample set. Same specifics as before but I've also highlighted in red those 1st places in oldstats era for relevance... also Terra gets the green shading for achieving her best newstats placement, Celes would but she's got "red" priority and not doing the whole dual-colour-in-cell thing for her.

Also ideally splitting into 2 images makes it look better

But really his absence is notable when you stick all these playable characters next to each other. Vaan's newstats best too I guess but lol Vaan.

Bobby Corwen is my IX newbie choice.

Thanks for the stats Martin! Rinoa has gotten 8th before but this is her best contest percentagewise so I'll happily take you greenifying her. I'm loling at how badly XII has done after its initial three top 10s. Notable mistakes we need to fix from there: get Quistis higher (but not at the expense of Rinoa >_>), get Prompto into top half, push some VI crew outside the usual suspects, and get some of the old IV folks back in.

...and how on earth did Irvine get 16th once?? Must've been in the FFD era.

Ah I forgot about the bot contests. Our hypothesis is rejected and the null hypothesis (The FF9 crew really won't save all non-Eiko playables/"nobody gives a shit about Amarant") is confirmed.

Oh damn I made the mistake of looking at the top placement so missed that 8/65, probably made that error in more places in the original image. But I think the newstats ones should be cleaner. Yes top 20 Quistis at a minimum imo, I'll leave that to you.

Irvine's run was contest XVII. That was Leonhart era wasn't it? We were talking about that run sometime recently but I forget if anyone in particular claimed credit for that push...

My top 11 FF characters are:

Lightning > Yuna > Dagger > Terra > Rinoa > Cyan > Eiko > Squall > Lumina > Sazh > Rikku

So as you can see, it takes a lot to be better than Eiko. Does anyone in FF7 write a love letter that leads to wacky hijinks? I somehow doubt it!
