20XX Round 1 --- Defeated (4) Gordon Freeman, 54875 [58.57%] - 38810 [41.43%]
20XX Semifinal --- Lost to (1) Mega Man, 33154 [35.44%] - 60391 [64.56%]
Extrapolated Strength --- 28th Place [25.20%]

Leon Kennedy was a lock to beat Gordon Freeman without breaking 60% on him, but the interesting part of his time in Summer 2005 was the match against Mega Man. 35% on Mega Man is actually quite good, though it caused people to wonder about Gordon Freeman's potential strength more than Leon's.

The Resident Evil series has always been a bit of an oddball, though the success of Resident Evil 4 allows Leon to be a character of decent strength. If the lasting power of RE4 continues, Leon could find himself winning a match every year. The question lies in whether or not Capcom will release more RE titles of RE4's quality so as to possibly allow their characters to do more damage in contests.


Division 6 Round 1 --- 1st place, 51641 [40.13%], Vivi Orunitia, 39729 [30.87%] - Ridley, 24297 [18.88%] - Spyro the Dragon, 13031 [10.13%]
Division 6 Round 2 --- 1st place, 42128 [33.31%] - Pikachu, 30533 [24.14%] - Vivi Orunitia, 27480 [21.73%] - Tidus, 26327 [20.82%]
Division 6 Finals --- 3rd place, 31279 [23.85%] - Pikachu, 44304 [33.79%] - Dante, 39904 [30.43%] - Amaterasu, 15644 [11.93%]

Leon had been hampered by bad seeding in his first two contest appearances, but he was thought to be able to make a deep run into the contest, being in a portion of the bracket that wouldn't see a Noble Niner until the contest semifinals. He was very impressive in his first two matches against some pretty good competition, but he was unexpectedly hampered by SFF against Dante in the third round. Because of that, Leon fell to third place behind Pikachu. It was a bitter end to the contest for Mr. Kennedy, but it was still his most successful to date.
