(4)Captain John Price vs (13)Mega Man X 2010

Ulti's Analysis
There were some very bizarre misseedings this year, and this was the first match where that was on full display. These seeds are pretty much backwards, because there was no way MMX was going to lose this. Almost all of the next-gen casual bait characters completely embarrassed themselves this contest, although it's not really their fault. Gamers are very traditional people who will not let go of older characters easily.

Industry overviews aside, this was a very boring match. Price ended up doing a lot better than many people expected, and with a god-awful match pic to boot. But there isn't much else to talk about when MMX gets a 65-35 blowout instead of 70-30. It's a very easy win over an extremely overseeded character either way.
