Match # 43 Results
Squall Leonhart 30.47%
Sora 28.31%
Yoshi 22.44%
Fox McCloud 18.77%

This is certainly looking like Square's best year since 2004... today Squall and Sora both managed to advance over Yoshi and Fox. What happened to the guy who beat Dante two years ago, and who beat Mario twice in a favorite Mario character poll?

Consensus:
Fox McCloud - 16.17%
Sora - 23.41%
Squall Leonhart - 33.70%
Yoshi - 26.65%

Top Team Scores:
1) Anyone want to team with an Oracle has-been? - 95.35 (Darkash: +0.00 / supdawg: +49.25)
2) The Dainty Assassins - 94.76 (Heroic Viktor: +48.10 / Cokes: +46.66)
3) Épuration - 94.44 (MoogleKupo141: +48.34 / tazzyboyishere: +0.00)
4) Détresse - 94.27 (Starion: +47.69 / TheArkOfTurus: +46.58)
5) Mother Cat is a Landmine - 93.68 (Xuxon: +46.95 / GrapefruitKing: +46.73)

The Oracle has-been should have stuck around... supdawg once again powers his team to a top 5 appearance without a partner. The Dainty Assassins (Tnote and Cokes) are second, followed by MoogleKupo's team Épuration (another one-man team with the departure of tazzyboy). Team Détresse (Starion and TheArkOfTurus) gets fourth, and Mother Cat is a Landmine is fifth.
