This isn't a thread about curses but rather weird and unexplained phenomena that tend to happen in rare occasions in these tournaments with a few exceptions. Curses are something else as in they're always bound to happen in one tourney or another and are more focused on one character but these phenomenon are exceptions as in they're something that rarely happen and can include many characters in said term.

Two phenomena where I'll give the names now are the Omniman Syndrome and Black Canary phenomenon.

>Omniman Syndrome: When a character has had huge hype around it but absolutely fails to deliver.
There obviously have been quite a few characters with this Syndrome, most infamous of course, being Omniman himself who lost in round 1 in Mr. /co/ and Tagteam which is baffling considering /co/ was going crazy over invincible over several months prior.

Not really a phenomena but rather an interesting observation on how alliance’s were being made during 2021 tournaments.

It first started with the FARTS who were basically the prototype alongside the /co/nqurers and then smaller and stronger Plunderers. These were mostly nonsensical but made sense because they had at least one theme in common (Heavy Hitters, Evil Overlords, just frens.).

This then lead to the influence of the alliances that were present in King /v/ 2021 where it was one of main highlights of the tournament with the major ones being the Schizos, Merchants, Evil Scientists, the Gray Daddies, the Femboys, etc.

I just noticed something funny.
Remember all the H.R. Giger posting at the beginning of Ms. /co/ trying to predict an alien champion?
It actually happened, just not in the female tournament.

He meant that NSA was going to assassinate him.

If Balls was still here while everything from the last month has been going down, he could've shed some light on what was happening in the tournaments only he and NSA were there for and help everyone understand if NSA was lying about stuff like Perifag gigarigging or AM being stomped by Garland.

But he's not here, because he was assassinated by NSA. Tragic.

Personally I find AM to be more comparable to Silver.

Like I said in my long rant, I could have forgiven her and understood her because of some stuff I have said I regretted, not as bad as her but still, if she was just a regular anon that was apologetic for what she did, but her being a host does make it so much worse. She dragged almost everyone down with her and ruined the fun. Also, sorry for bumping this back up. I should have posted before I deleted.

This is fine for Garland and Grimm, still doesn't explain OFF. It's not really a /v/ thing. Deus Ex for example is popular but i'd still consider it more /v/-centric than OFF is.

Yeah then that's fair, OFF certainly isn't /v/core. But I don't want to see people use the argument that because our last winners are relatively niche in mainstream terms, it must mean we need can't have another /v/core character win this year.

Will Mansley return for /cov/? Because I think he would make a great partner for Matias.
