Pfft, great analysts find someone else's prediction, take two percent
from one character and give them to another, then take five percent
from the third and give it to the fourth. Then rearrange the numbers
behind the decimal points. Finish up by taking .03 from a character,
give it to another, take .07 from the fourth and give it to the third. Making sure through all this time that you never have to bother carrying over. You're too lazy for that. <_< ~~~ Ashe. The Cream of Final Fantasy Fanboyism. Embok. |

Division 3: Round 1 - Match 9 – CATS vs. Meta-Knight vs. Peach vs. Sephiroth Moltar’s Analysis CATS Game/Series Known From: Zero Wing Seed in 2002: 13 Seed in 2003: 16 Seed in 2004: 16 Seed in 2005: 8 Seed in 2006: 8 Lost in 2002 to Ryu in Round 1 Lost in 2003 to Cloud in Round 1 Lost in 2004 to Link in Round 1 Lost in 2005 to Master Chief in Round 1 Lost in 2006 to Sonic in Round 1 He’s gotta win sooner or later! Meta-Knight Game/Series Known From: Kirby A personal favorite of mine finally gets in! Peach Game/Series Known From: Super Mario Seed in 2006: 8 Lost in 2006 to Tifa in Round 3 Eww. Sephiroth Game/Series Known From: Final Fantasy VII Seed in 2002: 7 Seed in 2003: 2 Seed in 2004: 2 Lost in 2002 to Link in the Final 4 Lost in 2003 to Cloud in the Finals Lost in 2004 to Cloud in the Elite 8 Lost in 2005 to Link in the Tournament of Champions Finals Lost in 2006 in Day 3 of the Battle Royale Ewwwwwww. Well, this is surely an interesting match. Sure, Sephiroth is a lock to take the #1 spot, but who gets #2? On one hand, you have Peach. She did respectfully last year, taking out Jill and losing with grace against Tifa. Now here she is in a fourpack that (minus Seph) isn’t all that tough. She may not be the favorite of the Mario characters, but looking at her past matches, and her opponents here, it’s clear to see that she will get some love from Nintendo fans. The big question is that, in a match like this, will it be enough? On another hand, you have Meta-Knight. A newcomer to the contest scene, but one that people have been wanting to see in action. Now, he finally gets that shot, but the situation he’s in…isn’t too good. Kirby isn’t a no-name franchise, so he should get some support. However, enough to put him in the #2 position? On the third hand (you know what I’m talking about), you have CATS. GameFAQs favorite joke entry from 2002 returns. Now, usually you would just say “Oh, it’s CATS. I’ll vote for him, but I know he’s going to get slaughtered anyway.” But wait, he has a chance this time! CATS definitely has his own core of fans that always vote for him. Plus, as we’ve seen so far, characters with more dedicated fanbases are doing very well in this format. He’s never gone under 10% in any of his 1 on 1 matches, and save for a couple of oddities (hi Ansem and Master Chief), CATS has always pulled a small chunk of the vote against his opponent, no matter the odds. So the battle for the 2nd spot is down to Peach and CATS. Now, if Meta-Knight weren’t here, Peach’s chances would look much more peachy (I swear, no pun intended). She needs every vote she can get, because CATS is guaranteed to pull in at the least 10-11%. It should be close between the two, but I think Peach will squeak out the victory. Not sure why, as I have a hard time believing that Peach actually has fans (whhhhhhhhhhhhy people?). I’m guessing she’ll get through due to Nintendo/Mario/potential bracket support. However, you won’t see me crying if CATS (or Meta-Knight!!!) take #2. Moltar’s Bracket Says: Sephiroth > Peach > CATS > Meta-Knight Moltar’s Prediction is: Sephiroth: 60% - Peach: 16% - CATS: 14% - Meta-Knight: 10% Ultimaterializer’s Analysis I *think* CATS and Sephiroth are the only characters to make every single character battle we've ever had (including villain's contest), but don't quote me on that. Kind of cool that they're up against one another, and this is actually CATS's best opportunity ever to advance. He's good for 15% no matter what the poll is, which is powerful given this style of poll. If Sephiroth garners 75% of the vote and CATS gets his 15%, he's going to advance. Crazy, but true. |
| Master Moltar | Posted 9/10/2007 9:36:55 PM | message detail | #321 |
| However, there comes the issue of whether
Sephiroth will dominate the poll that much. He'll pull at least 60%,
but CATS needs a lot more than that to move on. And with Peach and Meta
Knight in there (one legitimate Nintendo character and one Brawl avatar
slash Kirby villain), the Nintendo backing will be unpredictable, but
should be enough to allow Peach to squeak into second place. Peach
proved last year that she was no fluke, but she's in a pretty wacky
spot here. She more or less has to break 15% to advance here, and may
have to rely on the kiddy Nintendo day vote (again) to do so. I don't
think Meta Knight is as much of a threat, though I doubt he'll be the
pure scrub everyone thinks he's going to be. *Everyone* that plays
Kirby games loves Meta Knight, and he might not come in last place here. Odd poll here. Very very odd. Any of the three remainder characters could conceivably come in second place, but I'm sticking with Peach purely out of fanboyism. But if CATS manages second place, no one could possibly get upset about it. He's the only long-timer contest character left yet to win, what with Gordon finally getting his. Ulti's Prediction: Sephiroth [63.00%] Peach [16.50%] CATS [12.00%] Meta Knight [8.50%] Heroic Mario’s Analysis Sephiroth -- 62% CATS -- 15% Peach -- 13% Meta-Knight -- 10% HOW ARE YOU GENTLEMEN ! ! I thought this match was pretty boring at first glance. You’ve got Sephiroth dominating the poll, and then you have Peach coming in second. But oh no -- not this time! There’s a key in that that is easy to glance over -- Sephiroth dominating! The more that Sephiroth wins by, the worse it is for everyone else and the better it is for CATS. Doesn’t make sense, does it? Well, if you take into consideration that CATS is always guaranteed that 12 - 15% in every match he’s in, things start coming together. And really, how many people are going to call Peach their favorite character of this bunch? If you do, think about a testosterone injection -- you may be lacking. Damn girly men. Or maybe you’re just a hardcore SSB freak who needs to shower. Damn alpha losers. Joking aside, I think CATS can do this. The better Sephiroth does, the better chance CATS has. And then you throw in some split fanbase between Peach and Meta-Knight, and it should all be enough for him to do it. YOU HAVE NO CHANCE TO SURVIVE MAKE YOUR TIME ! ! Bracket: Sephiroth > CATS Vote: Sephiroth Yoblazer’s Analysis You wouldn't tell by looking at all the damn yellow in my bracket, but this match features the first true risk I've taken all contest, and boy is it a doozy. Now, I've been a CATS fan for years, this being evidenced by the fact that he's one of only three contest veterans I've never voted against. Despite my undying love for the lord and master of all Engrish, I've never envisioned myself taking him to beat someone. Until now. With that said, let me try to reinforce my argument here before I start weeping at the sight of my hilariously bad pick. |

Cloud Strife put up 61% against Revolver Ocelot, Jill Valentine, and
Midgar Zolom. Thus, I'm hoping the
not-quite-as-strong-but-still-a-powerhouse-in-his-own-right Sephiroth
can at least manage equally impressive numbers against a trio who many
have predicted to be weaker. In addition to Sephiroth and CATS, we have
two Nintendo characters - two of the weaker ones, actually. Say hello
to Peach from the Super Mario series and Meta Knight from the Kirby
series. Peach is the overwhelming favorite to finish second, and I
can't say it isn't deserved after her fine overall performance in last
year's Character Battle. However, she has also had a history (history =
one instance? LOL) of performing terribly in the "Favorite Mario
Character" poll, leading many to speculate that she has little hardcore
fanbase, a crucial factor to winning matches in this format. Win or
lose against CATS, her percentage will still be pretty low, and the
fact that Meta Knight will probably hurt her before anyone else doesn't
help. Now that we've gotten the introductions and strengths out of the way, let's go over the meat of this analysis: why in the **** I decided to go with CATS. First of all, CATS, along with the All Your Base fad in general, has been in many polls, and he has never once dipped below 12% of the total vote (against Link, no less). Seeing as how he has his awesome Face CATS picture today, I'm confident to say we could be seeing a better-than-average performance from him. In addition, I'm a firm believer that the better Sephiroth does, the more Peach's chances decrease. If we are to assume that Peach's nonchalant fanbase will abandon her easily for Sephiroth, then CATS and his rabid joke voters may pull it off. It really isn't all that hard to fathom if you ask me. If Sephiroth gets 60% and CATS gets a measly 15%, for example, that leaves Peach and Meta Knight to fight over 25%. If Sephiroth does even better and CATS's fans stay loyal, that makes things even tougher for Peach. It's a gamble, of course, but one that I'm hoping will pay off. Also, you've got to be out of your ****ing mind if you thought I wouldn't take CATS in a match and format where he actually has some kinda chance. FOR GREAT JUSTICE. Sephiroth - 61% CATS - 16% Peach - 14% Meta Knight - 9% Lopen’s Analysis I think Sephiroth > Peach was called the gimme vote for this... but I don't think it's that obvious. There's something you need to be concerned about, and that's the CATS base. Now this ain't no cheap Zero Wing shill... I'll explain later. Peach isn't too weak, we saw her do well last contest. But man, I thought she was gonna do bad... just look at those favorite Mario brothers character polls! Peach gets like... 1.2% in them. But yet... she did just peachy in the last contest, I just can't deny that. So... why is that? We've got three possibilities: 1. Peach crumbles in the presence of Mario characters. If that's the case, she doesn't have anything to worry about, and should take second with ease. 2. Peach crumbles in the presence of Nintendo characters. I don't really buy this being the case... but if it is, Meta Knight is gonna kill her. 3. Peach crumbles in the presence of greatness. That is... a truly daunting enemy that has a lot of fans. The whole cast of Super Mario Brothers counts as this. But you know who else does? You got it, Sephiroth! |

Choose of third is to be the great of composition. Peach has no chance
survive make her time. Meta Knight in beginning not on to be end.
Sephiroth test length base two out of three times compressing. CATS
base victory last with endure. ... er... that is.. Peach will fall hard in the presence of greatness, Meta Knight is (sadly) fodder and will also be cut to ribbons. And with Sephiroth kicking so much ass, CATS guaranteed ~15% of the site, that we call his base, it'll get the job done here. Lopen's prediction: Sephiroth – 68.32% CATS – 16.44% Peach – 12.02% Meta Knight – 10.22% Karma Hunter’s Analysis A rather clear-cut match today... or so it seems. Sephiroth is the plain, obvious, 100% total winner. Despite his kind of disappointing run in the Battle Royale (thanks to Cloud's presence and the unprecedented presence of Snake), there's no Cloud holding him back here. And his opponents range from slightly above the fodder line to just bad fodder. But where second comes in... that's a bit trickier. Despite the "OMG Ocelot lost to Pac-Man blather than railed on over and over, he still decisively beat out Jill Valentine - Peach's near equal. Noting that Jill is certainly a bigger fan-favorite to RE than Peach is to Mario, I think we can safely say if Ocelot was here he'd be beating Peach today... but he's not. Instead, the one, slim chance we have in store for an upset... is motherfriggin' CATS. CATS. The ultimate joke entry mainstay, only character to make every single character contest, only character to do so and NEVER win a match. Head-to-head, he'd have no chance against anyone here. But this is 2k7. This is four-way. And if Sephiroth does well enough, CATS's hardcore fanbase has the potential to elevate him over the more wishy-washy Peach fans. ...unfortunately, I can't take the upset over Miss Joke Fodder. Cloud fought tooth and nail to cross the 60% threshold against admittedly stronger competition, Sephiroth would need to exceed that by a ten point margin or more to make me think he's sapping enough votes to give CATS a chance. I can't put faith into that, and even then it's only a chance. With Peach being the lone Nintendo "mainstay" in this match, I'm sure there's a contingent that will keep her afloat here, giving her the edge that Jill didn't. Karma Hunter's Vote: CATS. Die Joke Fodder Die <_< Karma Hunter's Krazy Prediction: Sephiroth with 64%, Peach with 18%, CATS with 10%, Meta-Knight with 8% Ah, crapshoots. Upset Probability: 45% Yes, CATS has a good chance of winning, for all the reasons I gave. If Sephiroth crushes as much as some people are expecting... it's nearly assured. And of course don't forget Meta-Knight lol SSBB argh Transience’s Analysis I like to call CATS "12%": http://www.gamefaqs.com/poll/index.html?poll=967 http://www.gamefaqs.com/poll/index.html?poll=1313 http://www.gamefaqs.com/poll/index.html?poll=1718 http://www.gamefaqs.com/poll/index.html?poll=2020 http://www.gamefaqs.com/poll/index.html?poll=2523 no matter who he's facing, no matter the format, CATS seems to have a "floor" of 12%. those 12% will vote for him over anything, it seems. of all the characters in this thing, I trust CATS's fanbase more than anybody. they're not going to leave him for Sephiroth or a couple of Nintendo guys, not when they didn't leave him for Cloud or Link in those polls. |

so, the question becomes: what percentage does Sephiroth attain? if Sephiroth can get a high percentage -- think 70% -- I think CATS has a great chance here. Peach and Meta-Knight are going to be splitting votes, though I expect Peach to be getting most of those. Meta-Knight is just two months too early to be a factor in this thing. plus, Peach has constantly had her fanbase questioned -- who cares about Peach? in that famous Mario poll, she got a whopping 3.70% of the vote -- less than Toad or Wario and barely more than Waluigi. the only people that care about Peach are SSBM players and Mario 2ers. of course, you can't take that poll *too* seriously because she's competing against the Marioverse. Peach will probably get a good chunk of votes simply for being Nintendo. plus, she's rather iconic. I also thought she did pretty good against Tifa. nothing spectacular, but well-enough that her fanbase didn't completely abandon her when going up against a well-known and popular character. plus, I question CATS's longevity. his fad is seven years old now and is basically dead. vote totals are at an all-time high. is CATS going to be able to compete with all these new kids voting? I think he'll still manage to get his 12%, but I think Peach is the smart, safe pick. CATS is a cute little upset pick, but too risky for my blood. hopefully he gets a face pic so we see him at his maximum strength, cause I'd love to see him pull it off. that Ansem match remains one of my favourites of all time. Take off every 'ZIG' !! All your base belong to CATS vote for great justice transience's prediction: Sephiroth - 63.95%, Peach - 17.96%, CATS - 12.00% (aww yeah), Meta-Knight - 7.09% Crew Consensus: Seph > Peach is the majority, but can't blame Seph > CATS also being a popular pick. |

DpOblivion's Unofficial Supposedly-Quick-But-Apparently-Not Analysis: Sigh, falling just short of the leaderboard again....way to suck, Bowser. Anyway, on to today's match, maybe I can find my way on to the leaderboard if I can get the next 3 matches right. We start with an obvious #1 place finisher, the 3rd strongest character in the contests, Sephiroth. No SFF for him like Bowser had, so him finishing first here is as much a lock as you can get. As for 2nd place....are we going to have another problem with Nintendo SFF? Strongest Joke Character Ever, CATS, is looming behind Nintendo's Princess Peach and Meta Knight. CATS' dedicated fanbase is going to get him 10-12% either way, so a lot rides on how much of the votes Sephiroth can take; the more he takes, the less there is to split between Peach and Meta Knight. The thing is though, Sephiroth will probably need to get around 65-70% to take enough away from Nintendo to allow CATS to advance. Facing 2 Nintendo characters and Strongest Joke Character Ever, there's little chance that Sephiroth gets up that high. As for 2nd, Meta Knight is probably more popular than Peach for those that know both, but I think Peach has the advantage here for being in the main Mario series all the way since the beginning. Plus, Peach was in Super Smash Bros. Melee, while Meta Knight is still awaiting his first appearance in that series. DpOblivion's bracket says: Sephiroth > Princess Peach DpOblivion's prediction is: Sephiroth > Princess Peach Confidence Rating: 68% Sephiroth - 57% Princess Peach - 19% Meta Knight - 13% CATS - 11% --- Dp, you are one awesome, sexy bastard.

Ah, here we have a nice little match for people to recover their points
with after Ryu > Bowser. Sephiroth is a lock for first, and the only
competition Peach has is the Omega-jobber and some guy getting a couple
of months too ambitious. Sephiroth... He's one of the strongest characters on this site by far. There is really nothing to talk about here - He is going to slaughter. Peach on the other hand, is a decent character on the same level as Jill. You know who Jill lost to recently? The man with the dedicated fanbase, Revolver ****ing Ocelot. Y'know who else has a dedicated fanbase? CATS. That's who. His fanbase is as dedicated as Link's(Although admittedly just a tiny little bit smaller). If Sephy can grab enough votes, CATS has got this in the bag. Or at least, that's what the Stats crew wants you to believe. Then we have the guy who is supposed to work with Sephy to make it happen for CATS, Meta-Knight. Meta-Knight is basically Kirby with a sword. The people aren't shallow enough to vote for him over an- ...Wait. Meta-Knight is totally going to steal some of Sephy's "omg badass with a sword" votes. ...No, not really. He'll still do decently though, but he won't cause any crazy upsets to happen. While it's certainly a possibility, it would be a crime for me to take CATS here. He's a joke for a reason, people.

Wow, no one took Meta Knight? I put him second in my bracket, mostly because I like him most in the poll. Ah well; maybe next year... ...Unless Peach bombs. Please? --- VIVA LA REVOLU-er, Wii!! Thank you Nintendo, thank you very much. Lugia2-1246-5250-1185 |

There's almost no chance of Meta Knight beating Peach... only CATs has a chance, really. --- Knight of the Cross of Sir Chris' Court I have a third degree burn in flame-o-nomics -Sir Chris |

on Meta-Knight: http://www.gamefaqs.com/poll/index.html?poll=2428 I really don't think Meta-Knight is well-known enough. Kirby is popular because of his design and SSB appearances, not because of his games. Meta-Knight doesn't have that, just an announcement, and in my opinion his character design doesn't have the appeal that Kirby's does. --- THE ORDER MATTERS?!?!?!?!?! now playing: Jeanne d'Arc |

I can understand Peach SFF'ing Meta Knight, but will it really be bad enough to push Meta Knight into fourth? I mean, CATS is a god damn internet meme from 2000 and even the stupidiest of internet users aren't laughing as hard as they did. He's a joke character, plain and simple, and one that a lot of people have either turned against or stopped laughing at. I just don't buy that at all, sorry, even with SFF factored in. --- Today's Subliminal Thought Is: |

looks like Janus has the best prediction today. a lot of us are pretty close considering how "shocking" this is, though. Excuse moi, tranny? The date vote hurt Bowser more than Ryu. Hoorah, victory is mine! Damn Janus for sneaking away my Ryu prediction in the accuracy challenge, though!

From trannyscience Posted 9/10/2007 11:10:58 PM #334 and in my opinion his character design doesn't have the appeal that Kirby's does. ...What? I'm not an expert on the mindset of the casual, but doesn't adding a sword to anything automatically make it cooler to them? Though admittedly the picture doesn't show the sword to well if I recall correctly. ~~~ Ashe. The Cream of Final Fantasy Fanboyism. Embok. |

No sword. Hell, he doesn't even look like he's from the Kirby series
from that pic. Having looked at the pic, I may have gone a little
high....whatever I'll keep it. --- Dp, you are one awesome, sexy bastard. I less than 3 you. -Shadow Ryoko See Quote for Character Battle VI Printable Bracket 27/32 >: ( |

Because asking Yo about the rankings is the cool thing to do: Don't those rankings give 0 when you give the wrong pick? IE DIE JILL PICKERS DIE. And uh... me with my Zelos pick. --- "GUYS I JUST DRANK A MASTER CHIEF SODA, MASTER CHIEF FOR 2007!" - Swirldude |

Order definitely matters (it takes precedence over percentage).
However, this format doesn't punish mistakes very harshly, as a flipped
order will still get you positive points, and a flat out wrong pick
will just get you 0. --- yoblazer33: NO LIMITZ Watch and you'll see... someday I'll be... part of your world! |
