Carrera (1) vs Lilia (4): VGOTY2009: Purple Division Semifinal

[JG]

vs.

Carrera must have been making the nightly rounds last week, gathering up support and propeling her to a huge come-from-behind win in Round 2.  (Lucky guys.)

Lilia suspects foul play is afoot and plans an immediate investigation.

Another battle between good and evil! Actually, is Carrera genuinely evil? I never bothered playing her game.

At any rate, I think she'd take poor Lilia in a fight, if only because I've always thought of Lilia as a victim. Nevertheless I chose her, more than likely because I didn't try any of Sogna's Succubi games.

Hard again.

but I think I'm going for...........Lilia

[Archman]

Carrera had a tougher match up last round.  She's just flat out better than Lilia.  Did anyone see GTS?  C'mon, I'm voting for Carrera. 

[Hyperguy]

She's tied so far in this one.  It's interesting to see which characters Carrera doesn't flat out win against.

[JG]

Carrera's had a tough draw so far for a #1 seed.  Jota came from the uber-popular RSR and a lot of folks (myself included) think that Lilia is the true gem of F40, not Raika.


Carrera can't complain though.  They way I see it, Narsha, Makoto, and Anri have each drawn formidable opponents capable of knocking them out in all three rounds so far, while Carrera got a 1-16 cakewalk in Round 1.


Of course, at this point inthe contest, all the matchups are tough.  (I personally think there's only two sure-things in this round out of the eight pairings, but in the interest of remaining unbiased I won't say which ones they are.  Different people will have different perceptions of what makes a sure-thing and, in their opinion, exactly which contests actually are.)

[JG]

She did it again!

Carrera was behind early in the week and caught up over the weekend for the second round in a row.  Her fans absolutely must be weekend warriors.

I'm personally a little disappointed to see Carrera keep scraping by.  Not only would I like to have seen a really big upset in this tournament, but the prospect of both an all-RSR and all-F40 divisional final intrigued me.
