A horse race scenario applies as an analogy, if your horse wins but then retires, you lose the thrill of betting on it. Sure, you can talk about your retired champion, but nobody will care as much, because the excitement is always about the horses still in the race.

These are the winners that have basically no presence beyond being on the champion list. There’s a conventional universality to them on the board plus being straightforward utterly uncontroversial in how they won that just doesn’t lend any comment.
It’s only been a year but Frankie seems to be the same. Mado as well, but that also might do with how like 4-5 other girls eclipsed her as center of attention last year for various negative reasons and pretty much everyone still talks about them.

He has a good game, is sympathetic and is generally well known so I would say he should have a decent chance but doesn't for some reason. That reason cold be the way Joyful played out, which I remember hating but I would like him non the less.
Also can't decide if this image would be funnier if he won or if he remains the current disappointment. If he beat Eggman this image would be absolutely hilarious

I feel like his impact is vastly different than Shadow's. The latter is a recurring character whose company has no fucking idea what to do with him. K. Rool hasn't appeared in a Donkey Kong game in 18 years and his inclusion in Smash Bros. (along with Bananza being originally a Switch game) means they wanted to show us they had plans for him besides Smash.

FOTM is fine and can lead to unique and fun campaigns in the moment, the problem is if FOTM is ALL you have. Shadow relied on the FOTM of “Year of Shadow” and the popular notion that a lot of votes came from /sthg/. Him all but dying in popularity on /v/ after King just made it worse. Within the same tournament, compare it to Regigigas. His new boost also came from FOTM with the leaks, but the Regis were already memes and very beloved Pokemon on /v/.

Even queen's constant psycological warfare last year was more interesting then the dumb get casino, because at least the analysis got both dumber and smarter at the same time.

Complains about GETs and GETspam seem very minor to non-existent on /v/. It feels like another AM type boogeyman exclusive to this place while the vast majority of the voter base doesn't care, likes it or indulges in it. While here it keeps getting more and more exaggerated up until the tourneys begin and then nothing happens. Again, just like how AM was problematic and schizo circlejerk magnet and then 80% wanted to keep the whitelist with him in it and he made it to E8 with no controversy or pushback.

Certain problems last year aside I like Queen more cause it’s usually just a normal straightforward tournament. You just campaign for favorites and an agreeable pick wins, no big analysis for years afterwards. It’s fun and simple and is also the biggest of all the tournaments while also managing getting the least amount of off season and metafag attention. Queen 2022 and 2023 (pre grand finale) are the peak comfy yet highly engaged standard to me.
It’s peculiar to me how /v/ is always defined by King when Queen exist and functions like Mr. /co/. Strawman funposter likes to use Mr. as some big negative contrary example to King’s nature but Queen is right there.

Obviously the women jobbed in heroes/villains because 90% of the worthwhile heroes and villains in anime are boys, men, and chads. Just look at the average shonen, even the major female characters usually are useless ass jobbers or are just kind of irrelevant.
Women will probably do better in t/a/g-team since it can incorporate more female-centric series like romcoms or slice of life or whatever that don't really have "heroes" or "villains".

Donkey Kong might get a slight boost. His main issue is discourse around the new design, but I could see Bananza outweighing that. It's the first time DK's gotten a new game since King began, and this one helps to highlight why he was so fun in the first place.

Pauline depends. Don't think she's beating the big three from Mario, but I could see her now getting in as a Donkey Kong character instead. Still, don't see her going that far. Maybe one or two wins, but a deep run would shock me. People seem to like her Bananza portrayal, but Donkey Kong and King K. Rool are going to likely get more love from it.

“Heroes and villains” just doesn’t really fit female characters very much. In general media females are not written proactively compelling to male audiences. The exception here though is /a/ heroes though imo.
The more notable discrepancies are the porn tourneys (you can’t really argue it’s about better characters there, it’s just straight up gayness) and how massively much more attention king has always gotten compared to queen (literally almost no discussion at all despite being the biggest tourney on the main site).

Did you ever hear
that old tale?
Yes, the old tale,
based upon the
prophecy...

Lord of the Hammer.

Chapter 1
The March of
the Dark Senator.
The heroes defeat
the Senator and
stop the Metroids.

Chapter 2
The City of
the Banging.
The heroes do
battle in Motorcycles
to save the Maiden.

Chapter 3, The
Isles of
White light.
The heroes travel
among the zones
and catch a glimpse
of a lost shop.

Chapter 4, The
Duels of the
Jumping Jacks.
A great Jack gives
the heroes a
fuckable imp.

Chapter 5, The
Field of Grimm
and Curls.
The vast tournament is
charred in an inferno
of rape.

...What happens next?

Geheheh! Who knows?

There was only one more
chapter... After that,
It all stopped.

That next tourney, it
never did get held.

The ballot, it became so
grand, so overwhelming,

Some say it swallowed up
the hosts themselves.

The ones who could write
the next, the youth,
the Google Forum was lying
there for them to
pick up.

To make the next tournament.

...they never did.

But you, my dear?

I see a tourney lit
up in your eyes...
Burnin' bright...
Burnin' black.
Burnin' up
everything.

The bell's ringin' now.
Seems we've reached
the final rounds.

So... how do you
think it all ends?

No, how do you want
it to end?

For /v/? I'd say Garland, although Grimm has a solid case as well. I feel they're both very fitting and unique winners to the board who should have won even without their campaigning.

It's a toss-up whether I'd put Batter or Shadow higher if we're just talking the characters, but I do certainly like both. If anything, I've grown more weary of Shadow as a meta pick compared to the actual character and feel he'll be tolerated more once we're another couple winners in. He definitely got his push primarily because of lucky timing, but I do think he's far from the worst possible winner we could have gotten. Shadow was also getting some campaigning material in 2023, despite him having the misfortune of facing the Rayman campaign first round. He would have likely gotten some positive buzz in 2024 if that kept up without Shadow Generations or the Year of Shadow existing.

Jack and Grimm taught me to never give up in the face of adversity no matter the odds.
Shadow taught me that being an edgy furry that is mostly considered to be a joke and walking representation of bad writing from a franchise with a polarizing reception on 4chan as a whole doesn’t matter if SEGA shills a lot to make it your year and you get brigade votes from a /vg/ general.

The Shadow hate is starting to get old and forced to the point this guy above me is willing to shill over the two forced "You had to be there! they're not nobodies!"CHAOS and RAPE memes (literally orchestrated from that specific shitscord group) over a simple classic character that happened to be FOTM at the time. The only thing amusing about your post is just how it insists upon this headcanon (and cope) of pretending /tnt/ is big and influential and more than endless circlejerking.

Batter, Garland, Grimm, and Shadow are all fine in themselves as an odd hype winner. As oneshots they’re even kinda cool. Again it’s just that they happened four years in a row.

Because it's boring. King threads have had almost to do with the celebration of gaming for a long time, it's an embarassment that Queen, the GIRL tournament does this better. For all of Queen's complaints, pretty much every finale pair barring possibly Recette vs Mado was spot-on. How are Batter vs Eggman, Jack Frost vs Jack Garland, or Shadow vs JC Denton anyway good finales, when one contestant out of each of them so clearly "off"? (Grimm is alright as himself, he's hated because of Batter resentment, Eggman's double loss, and rigging. He makes sense in isolation.)
Average King thread:
>The number 7, and Bingus is gonna eat a bug. HE DID IT HE GOT THE SEVEN, FOR THE NEXT TWENTY THREADS BINGUS THE BUGEATER IS THE HOT TALK IN TOWN!
>Fartyniggerpoops here, I'm voting for the good characters. WHAT THE FUCK HOW COULD FNP DO THIS? I NEED TO RECORD A WEBM OF VOTING FOR THE EXACT OPPOSITE, AND I'LL MAKE SURE I GET TWENTY REPLIES AGREEING WITH ME!
>*well articulated reason why a character is a poor choice* "Vince Mcmahon/Goku/Bejita/Nightshift/Judyanon/Kleinerfag..."
>Man, this really good character hasn't samefagged for twenty minutes. They're shit! Vote for gay retard, he'll spam for sure!
>Wouldn't it be funny if the second place was a Pokemon with a hat?
>What character has the smelliest butthole? My vote hinges entirely on this
It's not even good shit post material anymore, King is too repetitive, too infrequent, and too high effort. At least Death Battle or /dbs/ is always around, and expects nothing out of you. It is strictly shilling and drama farming now. Make sure to buy your ticket to see Sonic 3 in theaters, epic /v/ gamers! If King doesn't have some big paradigm shift this year, like Ms /co/ did last, I say just cancel it entirely. It only makes discussion around the other, better tournaments worse, because King drama seeps into them.

Going off of this, I also think Grimm is a pretty good winner. He's a good example of an underdog winner because the odds are definitely against him but he still is a very /v/ winner considering the nature of his game and /v/ being one of the few places that constantly talks about it. It's Batter and Shadow which I feel are off, and Shadow is a much bigger offender here. Batter is weird but people like him and his game even if Eggman is a better winner. Shadow is the most instant regret I've seen out of any tournament winner and people were trying to prevent it even before it was all over.

I frankly don't see this supposed "/v/ modern classic" status for Jack when looking at the board, if anything he clearly was another meme FOTM that only gets brought up sporadically. (some) people here went from bashing him to being overly defensive and singling him out among the other four controversial winners, when he by far is the character that gets brought up the least in any sort of fashion by King voters; one can tell everyone else has something resembling an active fanbase, although I guess that's something left to be seen in Shadow's case.

Bazz was probably part of the issue, since it seemed a couple of particular shitters latched onto Hex after Bazz lost. Still, Bazz was bad as a conventional candidate, but anons got their fun before she died quick in Round 1 like was destined to happen.

Miku's only real serious impact was wasting Felicia's momentum. You can argue all day about her being in Elite Eight, but she got voted up before an unceremonious loss to Mado in quarterfinals. She didn't even get voted 8th, much as I feel bad for Tifa. I don't think people are going to care that much about Miku's placement in retrospect unless she gets a big comeback year where a win is in actual conversation.

Nah, most likely not. It was mostly a handful of purists who were getting pissy over Miku not being a true video game character. Felicia was the anti-thesis to that, and there were posts that had her over Miku in a "better Elite Eight line-up". Didn't seem like it had anything to do with Felicia's supporters being salty, however, more than her just being the main character to push over Miku for anons who despised her getting so far.

Main reason I even pointed out Felicia was that she was one of the only characters on Miku's part of the bracket getting any campaigning effort what I recall, and looking back over it now seems I'm mostly right. I know Aigis got some attention despite losing to Felicia the prior round to the Miku match and Etna least got brought up some before losing to Miku in the third round. Still, I don't think either one had the same genuine effort or hype that Felicia got. Miku didn't really have a big match until her, and I feel whoever won that part of the bracket was going to lose to Mado. The only loss was thus Felicia not getting to enjoy elite honors over Miku.

Pomni made E8 in Ms. /co/ while her show is still going. There’s the chance people have entertained that TADC could shit the bed and suck later on, hence making a potential win age poorly or make it so she never performs well again. The same argument could go for Deltarune since it’s also not a completed game.

It's less that she had much of a Silksong hype boost in 2022 and more that people got soured on her from constantly getting burned and demoralized by years of continuous lack of promised updates from Team Cherry about Silksong. Just look at the average HK/Silksong thread on /v/, it's not just lack of hype but actual negative hype filled with people dooming over her game being a Never Ever

In retrospect, it's definitely a good thing Midna won. Despite the NSA revelation, it's one of the less controversial results. If Hornet won, it'd be

>endless bickering about Midna is the NSA pick that got caught, or falsely shafted
I guess she could've been another serious contender against Hex Maniac. Imagine if she won 2024, so now that Queen had the further Madotsuki losing streak to contend with. Lmao.

Are the Persona girls truly shit and finished? I was wondering if the very announcement of Persona 4 could improve their changes of qualifying, but then I remembered that p3's remake releasing did nothing for the series as a whole. However, I think it's fair to point out that, historically, 4 is the most popular Persona game in Queen. Rise only appeared once, but Chie and Naoto have at least two appearances to their names. There were plenty of P5 girls, but they only appeared in the first year. The only P3 girl to show up was Elizabeth and that was when Aigis was ineligible.
Of course, this was the case back when Aigis wasn't the only girl to qualify. The subject of Persona's declining performance in Queen has been brought up before, but I don't think anyone gave a real explanation for the phenomenon.

>I'm kind of shocked to see that Adachi hasn't been here since year 1.
Year one in general is pretty anomalous in general due to the first come first serve nominations since you have classic board favorites like Reimu, Raiden, and Adachi that didn't get in but you do have a random puffle from Club Penguin and the bard from Wandersong. The real test of a character's qualification consistency is from 2020 onwards in my opinion.
>>202241
He usually does get a pretty decent push actually, though it doesn't matter much when you get fed to Doomguy, 2022 Wesker, and Raiden in the second round. Maybe he just needs a better bracket.
There is the remake coming up but I doubt it'll help since most of /v/ is (rightly) uninterested since on top of being extremely unnecessary when we already have Persona 4 Golden it's also inevitably going to shoot itself in the foot trying to appeal to modern audiences, in fact it's more likely to hurt Adachi than help since there's a chance they ruin him by removing his dialogue calling women bitches and gold diggers or doing some other gay crap to make him less insensitive.

ENOUGH. OF. THIS. CATLITTER.

I, GODsy-sama, EMPEROR of mascot platformers proudly reign over:

CrashEDANDBURNEDicoot, king of all jobbers and my slave.

BanJOKE, my one and only true jester and other slave.

SWINEro, my other jester and slave.

Sly POOPer, who I have become far stronger than.

Mega SISSY, who my friends needlessly warned me about.

JOBnic, who I easily ringed out in his super form along with TURDow and SHITver.

RayKEK, who provided a light workout and first awakened my wish to become strongest platformer mascot in the universe.

WOKEy Kong, who wiped out most of my fodder enemies after I cunningly revived him, JUST AS PLANNED.

CRY the Tasmanian WHINER, whose incomparabily puny sales availed him not a WHIT and was rightfully cast out of relevancy by my hand.

GAYSex, whose hour-long pun duel sessions gave me uncontrollable humor level gains so purr-ific, even the quip rehearsals in Bubsy 3D cannot compare.

LATRinx the STREET Sweeper, for he has my feline DNA AS WELL AS the inferior genes of my other failed mascot SLAVES.

SHARTio Bros., whose ""power"" I am not scared of (I hope they won't kill my beloved punching bags, but I am too amused to help them...)

SUCKboy, who didn't revenge-rape and mindbreak Sony from the sheer agony of killing his series (I did it instead).

SOIJak and KWABster, for I will fuck THEM up once they find out I oneshotted their buttbuddies WEAKchet & DORK (God they hope not...).

And all my other FAILED platformer mascot SLAVES that were TOO IRRELEVANT to even bring up, with the exception of one single DISHONORABLE mention and guest ""star"" - REDDITbob CRINGEpants.

That's idiotic. King has the most stagnant Elite 8 of all, because it's just the same characters over and over again that people want to have win and retire, but get fucked over in some stupid way and trapped in purgatory. JC Denton and Eggman are WAY Overdue for Victory. Raiden, Snake and Jetstream Sam, Heavy and Scout, Wario and Luigi, Travis Touchdown, AM, Kiryu, Leon Kennedy, and Phoenix Wright have all made it TWICE. Even if half of those are dismissed as "boring silent shit" or some one-off fluke like Jack Frost's second place run, that's at minimum six years of characters people have very much wanted to proceed very far, if not outright win.

>Batter
Spur of the moment alliance autism combining the hype of Deltarune chapter 2 and the Spamton round with people mad at Madotsuki losing to Recette. Visually his design is a step above a stick figure and his party members are the MS paint circle tool, so it's easy for a slew of art to be made.
>Jack Garland
Incessant Square Enix board marketing and meme templates. Out of all of these he's probably aged the best.
>Grimm
Massive discord rigging scandal, also a shameless homage to holdouts from the Batter era.
>Shadow
Incessant Sega board marketing from both Shadow Generations and the Sonic 3 movie. Plus overt participation from an active /vg/ general, the round they didn't get a thread link saw a 70 vote drop. And this is understated but I think the round 4 results helped him, most of the big campaign darlings being taken out made the comparative art machine look better (Look at Wuya and Eris in Ms /co/ 2023 for a crossboard reference).

Mado is silent yes but you can get an understanding of who she is by exploring her dreams and just sort of looking at the environments in the game. A similar example is say Sunny/Omori where again even though he never says anything the game gives you a pretty clear idea of his personality and what kind of person he is.
This is opposed to say Gordon Freeman who is an actual blank slate, and outside of being a physicist you can pretty much imagine him to be whoever you want him to be ala Freeman's Mind or something.
That's not me dogging on Gordon by the way, though personally I've always rooted more for G-Man doing well, but unfortunately every HL candidate in King seems to be purely associated with memes; for Kleiner it was the In The End video and gmod mingebag memes, for G-Man recently it's skibidi slop, and there's Canbine who is a literal meme. Maybe we can get Breen this year?

The only downside is how GOOD the game I will be. Either I obsessively follow the Silksong threads when the game releases so I can snag up that delicious Hornet porn that'll likely never get reposted outside of its originating thread, or I go in blind to experience the game in its full glory, but miss out on once-in-a-lifetime faps. I think I have to go in with the former, just because I lament never being able to play Hollow Knight for the first time again, but it will be a shame to miss out on the goods. I've got a "nut" folder just for Hornet waiting to be filled up, Queen better not disappoint.
