User:FirstaLasto/Invitational Tournament Character Predictions Game

So yeah, weird idea, but here's a game where you try to predict some specific things relating to the characters appearing in the Super Smash Bros. Invitational Tournament. You can change your posts at any time prior to the day of the tournament.

Loneliest Characters (4 Points)
In this section, you predict which 4 of the 20 character's won't be chosen in the tournament. Each correct response is worth 1 point.

Strongest Characters (4 Points)
In this section, you predict which 4 characters will take the top four spots in the tournament. The order isn't important; each character you choose that is placed in one of the top four spots is worth 1 point.

Weakest Characters (8 Points)
In this section, you predict which 4 characters will get last place in their respective first rounds. Because part of this requires predicting which characters will not appear together in the first rounds, each correct response is worth 2 points.

So there's a total of 16 points to be won. I don't have any prizes to give away, but if you win... I don't know, something. Giving a reason for your prediction is optional. If you do, just put a "- REASON" after the character name.

Predictions Area

• Lonely
  • Donkey Kong - After you discount my other 3 choices and the characters mained by the confirmed attendees, he seems like the character with the attributes least appealing to high level competitive players.
  • Rosalina - Depsite her probably very high potential, its hard to pick a high learning curve character you've never used before when you're taking part in an event like this.
  • Villager - Looks to be a character that requires elaborate set-up to be effective with. The 5 minute matches might make that difficult, plus as with Rosalina, he/she looks like a high learning curve newcomer.
  • Zelda - Despite her buffs, its hard to tell at this point whether or not she would be effective in the high level tournament scene.
• Strong
  • Fox
  • Little Mac
  • Marth
  • Zero Suit Samus
• Weak
  • Bowser - He may be a lot better than previous games, but he's also much larger. Might be a problem in the 4 player free for alls.
  • Kirby - Similar reasoning to DK; process of elimination puts him here.
  • Mega Man - Despite the fact that I'm almost certain he will get chosen, I don't think he's going to be easy to just pick up and play.
  • Sonic - We haven't seen much new about him yet, so it's difficult to tell how much he has changed, but assuming the answer is "not much", he won't fare well.
