Phoenix Wright lost the board vote to Kirby. The board vote has not made any sense this entire contest.
Black Turtle did a pretty good job.

Tifa rose 1.6% from this point in her Mewtwo match (probably slightly inflated). MMX lost .2%

could be good

Tifa (relatively) lost Europe to Mewtwo, somehow.

Honestly, I think as long as Tifa can keep it close like Geralt did, eventually she'll overtake X.
So let's talk about how Lara Croft would blow the doors off Shepard.

Lara was pretty good in 2013, too!

True story I would've taken Lara > Shepard if it was in the bracket this year

For mostly the wrong reasons (I have Lara > Ammy which will tell you my thought process) but you know. I could've looked so smart. If only.

Lara’s a much bigger deal in the time since 2013. not that this site cares much, but maybe some.

speaking of Geralt, this is the update where Bayonetta started to drop off until the night vote propped her up.

Mass Effect is definitely a case of 'lucky they had a very obvious path/didn't face trash that was just slightly stronger'.

For bracket purposes, at least.

man ryu is raising better than seph. what a bum. I wonder how close that match gets. Seph is the only chance to “break” the noble nine but it’s looking more and more likely. it’s gonna happen this year for sure but you’d think all the exposure in double elimination, etc would get them, not X or Luigi.

Seph only becomes a bum next round after he kills Ryu and scavenges his hobo sack

Ryu needs to break Sephiroth's Falcon score on KOS-MOS for me to feel like the upset could happen.

Not saying Sephiroth is untouchable and Ryu being the first legit character to shatter the noble nine (I think?) would be really great but low-60s on KOS-MOS isn't a confidence-inspiring performance.

Ryu is always up to test his limits through glorious FIGHT.

I prefer Seph and I'm pulling hard for this one cause it'd be too perfect in character. But yeah not too hopeful right now

Yeah, I haven't seen anything from Ryu yet that tells me, "That would beat Seph."
Of course if you told me 'one of these performances is by Sephiroth' I would pick neither, but Sephiroth is the kind of character to let an overperformance like this happen and still put a solid win over Ryu.

also Ryu finishing the fight after he was the first character to put a legit scare into a Noble Niner (which nobody remembers because it happened in the middle of the night) would be great

I can't take KOS-MOS over Captain Falcon.

Amaterasu always being able to exceed expectations is one of my favorite recurring contest bits, though.
Black Turtle did a pretty good job.
Weirdly Ryu's win over Shepard is what made me first think he had a shot against Sephiroth.

Captain Falcon's strength is pretty much all Smash.

King K. Rool's strength right now is pretty much all Smash, but amped up due to being one of the focuses of Smash hype.

I guess we'll find out in 4 days?

well Zelda has confirmed that ME is just garbage this year but either way Shepard being on Lloyd Irving's level was a big red flag anyway
Shepard vs. Lloyd would have been absolutely wild. Lloyd probably leads in the first five minutes.

Wow, I forgot about Ryu beating Sonic overnight clear back in 2004... man, trends were so much more pronounced back in those days. Even more extreme than that, Kefka was beating Knuckles overnight in the same contest, but Knuckles ultimately won with 57.43%.

Maybe Kirby overperformed on Phoenix? Phoenix really got hammered in a match with Mario before. But I really do think Luigi is overperforming on Tails.
