Toho, honey, I know you guys are hurt by the damage Tristar did to your baby boy, but there's such a thing as too protective, y'know?

So Champions Island Week 2 has reached the elimination poll phase. The characters on the poll are Meta Knight, Frieren, Sakuya, and Samus. Apparently, the current status is that Meta Knight is practically safe with him comfortably receiving the least number of votes (again) and there being another three-way fight between the other three.

[up][up]Feels like Samus is in hotter water now more than ever, considering she just barely avoided getting eliminated last week, so I think she might be gone. On the other hand, you'd be hard-pressed to find an "absolute #1 match-up" for Sakuya, so she feels at risk of vanishing too. I'm predicting it's gonna be Meta Knight and Frieren moving on.

Meta Knight's definitely not going to last after this round though, should elimination time come again, his match-up spread is ass.

Here's a question for you guys.

Which losing character do you believe had the biggest "I'm Screwed/ Oh NO!" reaction.

Like, when the character's best chance just went up in flames and they know they are simply screwed, or not even that, their last moments are them realizing "Wait what?!" before having the chance to regret anything.

For me, I know Homelander had a very cathartic one, but Ganondorf recovering from the Demonic Megiddo, reverting back to his human form, all while seeing Dracula towering over him. No other option other than what he assumed to be his Triforce, which he forgot left him during the actual Blast, but out of habit, he tried calling for it but it's long gone, and him finally realizing "I'm screwed" before being ripped apart.

Unicron thought he took home the gold until an even bigger, more powerful Galactus emerged from his pocket dimension and spat a final bar at him

I imagine he knew deep down he was screwed after that

Metal Sonic from Bowser vs. Doctor Eggman. Throughout the battle, he was throwing Bowser like a rag doll until Bowser Jr. got hurt and Bowser went Papa Wolf on him. You can see his irises shrinking in terror as realizes too little too late that the chaos emeralds weren't going to save him.

Honorable mentions will have to go to Ghost Rider in his fight against Spawn. He didn't realize that the his signature move had no effect on Al or it can even be used against him until too late.

Man the current round of Champion Island is crazy. Frieren, Sakuya and Samus are STILL in a three way tie. And not just by percentage, apparently they have literally the exact same number of votes each.

Who are Samus’ matchups?

I want another Samus video with good production values where she’ll be in her suit the majority of the time. But if there’s no good ideas for an opponent I’d rather wait than get an episode I’ll only half care about

Samus has..

Mega Man X, Doomslayer, Master Chief and Firefly from Honkai Star Rail off the top of my head.

I think she’d merk X, unsure how it would go with Doomslayer but I’m leaning towards him winning, pretty sure she could take John Halo, and I think the prediction blog already calculated that Firefly would beat her. But putting an rpg character against another genre is already a hugely advantage that it feels a little unfair

She gets stomped by X. Easily the least close of her spread.

TheMageofFire Since: May, 2012
#95273: Oct 20th 2025 at 1:28:20 PM

X Dive is not canon yet so X does not get scaling from that so in theory lore Doomslayer should be the bigger stomp, except his speed is awful compared to his AP.

#95274: Oct 20th 2025 at 1:39:54 PM

X is much faster theb Doonslayer and outhaxxes much harder. He also has universal arguments off of MMZ anyways, shich would put him relative with Slayer in strength.

TheMageofFire Since: May, 2012
#95275: Oct 20th 2025 at 2:02:15 PM

The arguments for Universe level canon X are very flimsy at best. He's very reasonably Star level by scaling above Rock who defeated Sunstar, and no doubt he's faster than Doomslayer.

...None of it hardly matters when X has zero answers to the Metroid Suit that Samus can't just counter herself.
