## Ulti's Analysis

- **Round:** Time Division Semi Final
- **Match \#:** 48
- **Match Date:** Sunday, October 29th, 2006
- **Vote difference:** 25,927
- **Oracle Expectations:** Auron - 61.45% 116 for - 2 against
- **GameFAQs Prediction:** Auron - 35.88% (15,301 brackets)

It never fails; Master Chief is always going to be overestimated to hell and back in these things. Only 36% of people had Auron winning twice?

Anyway, Subby's upset run lasted all of one match, and Auron predictably beat him easily. The vote totals are a bit high due to the match being 25 hours long, but still, nearly 135,000 votes on a meaningless second round match is silly. And Sub-Zero looks like The Shredder in the match pic, which is totally unrelated but I felt like mentioning it anyway.

What truly matters here is that a long-standing injustice has finally been rectified. A couple years back, Auron faced Scorpion in a match. The result: [<http://www.gamefaqs.com/poll/index.html?poll=1739>](http://www.gamefaqs.com/poll/index.html?poll=1739)

Auron won 64.85% - 35.15%. Extrapolated, Sub-Zero scores 43.53% on his inferior palette swap clone POS. This match made me a happy man, because for two years Scorpion kept getting into brackets on the basis of one weak-ass eightpack while the far superior Sub-Zero sat on the sidelines. When Subby finally got his chance to perform, he not only exposed Master Chief (But who doesn't?) but he also proved that Scorpion never had a place getting into contests over him. Thank you, Rally Contest \<3

And on that note, two rounds in the books with our best contest stretch run since Games 2004 yet to go.
