After Tifa's beatdown of Vyse, this was hyped up to be an interesting match. After Tifa's stumble against Luigi, it was fairly obvious that Tifa wasn't going to be the first character to break the Noble Nine any time soon; though some insisted that using a constant KOS-MOS gave Tifa a good chance.

Because using a constant KOS-MOS makes sense.

For the first hour or so, this match was relatively interesting. Sonic was only able to get a lead of a couple hundred votes, while Tifa was able to win a few small updates every now and then before the vaunted SEGA morning vote blew her the hell away. That's around when the match stopped being interesting, and the only thing to worry about from this point on was how good Sonic looked in preparation for his upcoming duel with Mega Man. Unfortunately, the only character we could really base Sonic's chances off of was Diablo; Jin was new, and Vyse, Tifa, Luigi and KOS-MOS were all erratic.

A big-time match in which we had no real idea who would win, which is awesome. In a perfect world, every big match would have this much uncertainty going in.
