/co/ All-Stars/EE8 Tournament Speculation/Waiting RoomAnonymous

This thread is for discussing and planning a possible /co/ all-stars tourney.

As you may know /co/ is about to have its 8th tourney year and crown it's 8th Ms. and Mr. /co/ champion. The first eight winners have been dubbed by many as the "all stars" or Elite-Elite 8 (EE8) line-up. Many have also brought up and hyped for a while the possibility of a tourney between these first eight winners. This is would be a one time opportunity, aligning with the "elite 8" tournament concept, and a similar all-stars thing (after waiting another eight years for 16 winners) may be unlikely as it's so far in the future.

How should an all-stars tourney go down? When? Where? What do we think would happen? ect. Generally celebrate or judge our winners too I guess.

The boring answer is to just do a final ranking of the first eight winners in each tournament. Basically the usual 5th-8th votes, except that it's for all eight positions.

No point if Jenny and Johnny are probably going to win this.

I mean that's basically what could be done with a traditional QF kind of round with 5-8th ranking determining the losers.

Tom or Kronk would be neat, I agree, though Johnny is already one of the most OP characters in tournament history, he was the only human that stood a chance in Playboy.

Also two more Tag Tournaments until they get their own all star lineup. The winner for the hypothetical tournament would probably be down to either Freelance Police or Mystery Inc., Cognito is definitely getting fucked.

Raven, Toph, and maybe Eris and Jessia Rabbit are the only one's I can think of that maybe could be widely agreeable on that level, but it'd depend on them getting a big quality campaign and not silent majoonering into finals. I'd add Chel but I get the feeling even if she did get a big campaign she's carrying too much baggage the the big bad silent rep at this point.

Toph has almost always had at least decently active campaigns but there was that unfortunate 2020-2023 jobbing streak that really threw her off. Luckily I think she's killed her jobber status for good after 2023, so I have high hopes she can finally make it this year as she would easily surpass Jenny for me as the best possible Nicktoons winner, let alone best Ms. Winner.
>(Chel) is carrying too much baggage as the big bad silent rep at this point.
You have to remember Frankie had that exact same reputation going into 2024 and she completely flipped it around. If she gets a good campaign like Frankie had with her drawfags I can see her pulling off a win

A side tourney would be fun but it would probably be relegated to here and not /co/. Better off just doing a ranked vote maybe during the 2025 after party

My suggestion is make it a /tnt/ thing friday after Mr. /co/. Have it be split, one side of the bracket female, one side male, crown the super champ for each gender and then maybe an ultra monarch with the two super champs or something.

Adding to this: /co/ and /tnt/ have VERY different tastes and thus the results would be vastly different based on which board it’s hosted on. Remember when we swore brisby would sweep last year?

If it's not a tourney and just a side poll I wouldn't be shocked if Spinel or Fang end up as one of the best performers just for the contrarian factor. Remember Battler swept the 4-way king loser's bracket because he had "Crown Steal" behind him while the not-Shitposting crowd couldn't decide whether to rally behind Wario, Peppino or Jacket since all are well-liked vidya guys

A poll's kind of lame. A big part of this (for me at least) was having the winners back in a tourney format again and having them go head to head directly in this retrospective context.

I'd much rather have a nice cut and dry poll that is ACTUALLY ON /co/. Because if it's /tnt/ all we get is a small portion of the voterbase with, as I said, a drastically different taste than the actual board.

Do the "final ranking" on /co/ itself. If anons really want a full 16 all-star tournament, then just do it off-season. That seems like the best compromise.

I don't know about "easily surpass" but I think she'd easily be 2nd best all things considered. I can't really think of anyone that would, in a board-wide agreeable sense, be regarded as easily surpassing Jenny. Same as looking for someone that would easily surpass Bravo, Armstrong, or Samus. They're inaugurals for a reason.

I'm a bit surprised at people putting Fang so low in predictions. Meta stuff only tourneyfags here know in-depth aside she still has a novelty factor and Primal is still a /co/ favorite, and her run was the hypest in /co/ tourney history. When she won it felt like she could take on every other winner. I can see her getting upper half at least.

Dante is tough competition for Armstrong, but I feel Armstrong has the advantage of feeling like more of a special winner. With Samus, I feel nearly anyone with an argument over her has already won.

I'm speaking in terms of general appeal, not tourney autists specifics. Dante might have an edge on Armstrong but not easily. Samus I feel would still come across as the biggest general /v/ favorite.
