/tnt/ - Tournaments & Events

I think all four of them are solid picks, but Zorak absolutely is the best one with Fang closely behind.

>>15431
With Jack and Midna at some certain point it was ratherobvious who was going to win, with a lesser extent to Fang (Fang wasn’t a bad winner but the tournament sure was).

Zorak was an underdog through and through and nobldy expected he would win another round up until he won Mr. /co/

>>15431
I honestly thought jack garland was a solid winner as well(liked the chaosposting meme) but overall Zorak was the overall best winner this year and a true underdog story, Fang caused seething amongst riggers, and midina was just predictable all around though this isn’t a bad thing it is the most boring win

>>15431
Not crazy about any of the winners as characters; all kind of 6-7/10 for me. Jack had the best campaign but Zorak was a good underdog run, and indisputably the most successful RP ever.

>>15431
Fang is my favorite, but now that it's been a few months I can definitely understand why people felt her run was boring. It all happened at a just too-perfect time for her. Still, I'm glad she won. Zorak was a pleasant surprise and easily the biggest twist of this year. Midna was good, but I really wanted Hornet to win so I'm still a bit sour about her. Garland's win was obvious after he crushed AM but honestly I liked the Chaos posting and respecting his strength.

Overall I would say this was a strong year, if a little predictable.

>>15438
Definitely a strong year despite what went down on ms /co/ but I was honestly expecting something to occur either way regardless. I was a little iffy on mr /co/ and it’s randomized brackets at first but overall it ended up being a very fun choice especially since we got more lesser known characters to reach further into the tournament than being simply fodder. My biggest surprise was my main Kermit beating shaggy but unfortunately he lost prematurely to courage, but this alone shows his potential as a strong contender next year.

>>15439
Kermit defeating Shaggy was great. Underrated moment.

>>15431
personally love all the winners this year, primal sure had the season 2 boost but otherwise they're staples either in their respective medium or had great campaigns

>>15431
>100% genuinity to said win
He's a fine winner, but that statement is unfortunately false. A lot of people in the last few rounds were talking about voting for him because he's an underdog.

>>15443
That doesn’t really invalidate his achievement

>>15431
>>15443
I don’t entirely get what OP means by that in this context myself. Technically no winner can be genuine since it pretty much always involves some manipulation, especially near the end. I would personally say Midna was the most genuine, since it was the purest straight win (via just already being topmost established and popular) without some tournament fuckery.

>>15444
Yeah, but it means it's not 100% genuine like OP said.

>>15431
Pretty good, and Zorak is my favorite as well. I wanted Hornet and AM to win though.

>>15446
Yeah there are no clean winners in these contests but that's ok

>>15564
I was pulling your legs anon no one was rigged

>>15597
Can't believe I got bamboozled

>>15614
the last post wasn't me however

>>15431
Zorak was the best winner. Jack Garland had the best campaign.

Fang and Midna were both solid winners, but also very expectable ones. Think they’re also the first two characters to win after being in Elite Eight previously, wild as that sounds.

>>15619
what does this even mean lol

>>15665
Fang and Midna were both seed 1 with relatively easy matchups. It was rather obvious at who was going to win.

Jack also had high seed but a great campaign but Zorak till now has been the second lowest seed count to ever win a tourney.

>>15431
I respect Jack's strength but he couldn't overhype Batter.

fang*

Fang was by far the best winner

>>15431
Garland > Zorak > Midna >>> meme dinosaur

>>15906
Another thing I forgot to add is that while I liked Midna and Garland they became way too predictable as the tournament went on.

>>15906
Midna is a definitive improvement over Recette, at least in my opinion. Garland's run just left a bad taste in my mouth in a similar way Ms. /co/ was rife with drama and rigging. And as another anon above said, he couldn’t overhype Batter.

>>15908
It's definitely has reached a point with Batter and Garland that now anyone who "acquires" a part of their opponent is guaranteed to win no matter what.

>>15906
>who's to say Nightshift isn't going to inevitably exclude a character in Ms. /co/ that will create drama anyway?

Nightshift unlike in /v/, has actual experience with /co/ content and their origins so I doubt it.

>>15909
>tfw all of this probably started with Grievous' campaign in 2019 because it was literally part of his character to acquire the weapons of his fallen enemies as trophies

>>15911
I mean, unlike Batter and Garland it is actually in-character for Grievous to take weapons of fallen opponents.

>>15913
Yes that's what I mean. Honestly I hope we don't take this trend for granted and have literally everyone use it because it will just become boring and derivative.

>>15912
>>15915
Silver would make for a great winner but it's hard to imagine the entire board deciding to vote for him, he is somewhat of an oddball contestant in that sense. I hope he can go far next year.

>>15909
Didn't worked for Scout despite doing it better
