Alright, which one of the following are you backing for Queen? We've got four top dogs in the contest right now that are bluntly way stronger than the rest.
>Hornet (For Silksong being real, former runner up)
>Noelle Holiday (For Deltarune chapter 3 and 4, plus Weird Route rape)
>Amaterasu (For Okami 2 announcement, former runner up)
>Pauline (For Bananza, and being the /v/ foot-loli power coomer combo)
You aren't able to pick "none of the above".

How is Noelle way stronger than the rest? She's historically been a nothing burger jobber in every tourney she's in and even if Queen of /v/ operated on the same level of memey hype as King of /v/, the hype tends to go to rapists not raped bitches.
Kris is the real Deltarune threat to watch out for since he has both rape hype and new release hype but he's in King, unless Queen voters pull a Baba/Pyro and steal him for themselves due to the "ambiguous gender" loophole, which dare I say would actually be kind of funny.

Queen has had enough great traditional winners that a FOTM win for once is fine. And even then, Hornet is a former runner-up and was popular regardless. K. Rool would also be a great FOTM winner because he's been in every King tournament regardless and is another non-controversial character.

I doubt it, gacha slop has an absolutely abysmal track record in these things. They fail so hard at qualifying that I'm pretty sure I've seen even popular gacha slop like Genshin and Blue Archive in Bottom 128 before
The few times you get a gacha character like AK-12 or Essex in it's purely from people who don't even play their games voting them in because of memes and then they proceed to job round 1 because nobody ever cared about their character. The only gacha I remember doing anything was Limbus Company and that was mostly just because of PMfags

I disagree. Hornet actually made it to the finals on her own after two years of doing better and better. K. Rool would be another Shadow situation where a fodder character gets a boost although I think he would be more much more liked than Shadow.

One of the main problems is that not even tourney autists really care about Mega Man as a character on both /v/ and /tnt/ despite being the core of the franchise and tourney autists citing Roll's irrelevance in the games as a reason for being an undeserving powerhouse. Heroes of /v/? Annihilated by an obscure meme cowboy in round 1 (albeit with a video). King of /v/ 2024? Just narrowly lost to a FAITH character that didn't get E8. And so on.

Sexiness ranking for /v/ winners
>Top tier:
Midna. Best ass in all of video gaming. Bratty gremlin with pretty eyes and funny fangs, just the right combination of "nasty slut" and "cutie pie". The glowing tattoos are exciting, and she's got a great voice. Plus there's the megamilker true form if you're into that.
Shadow. Prime "I can fix that" material. Sexy chest fluff, very pettable. Looks great in girly dresses.
Dante. Rugged, masculine, but with a approachable softness. Great voice, great confidence.
Curly. Great slutty clothes of loose tank top and unbuttoned pants. She leaves her underwear laying around so you know she's comfortable with her body. Cute pudginess.

>Mid tier:
Samus. It feels weird putting her in mid, for her it's more like averages, based on how much her design shifts. Her design in Smash Bros, and Zero mission is drop dead gorgeous, while her face model in Prime 1 and 2 is nasty. The power suit is sexy as fuck in Dread, but that game released after her victory.
Reimu. She's very cute, she just needs more weight on her. While I KNOW she's physically very strong, she LOOKS like she would snap in half if you were too rough with her. I gotta squeeze something to get off.
Garland. He's a pretty plain looking strong dude, not much more to it. He doesn't have that boyish charm like Dante, Jack is more like a respected leader. But I can see how he'd appeal to some.
>Not sexy tier
Armstrong. He's beautiful on the inside, which is what really makes him our first king. On the outside, a balding middle-aged guy with gross steroid muscles just isn't doing it.
Batter. He's just completely plain. I wouldn't even say he's a step above an inert costume mannequin at a sporting goods store, he IS a costume mannequin. Except this doll moves, and occassionally talks.
Grimm. There's a reason he has to violently rape to get off. A stinky, bloody suit of armor drawn in a chicken stratch artstyle just isn't pretty. Unless you beat your dick to edgy knight in armor drawings you drew during middle school class.
Recette. This is just a kid with an overcomplicated outfit in a generic anime artstyle.
Madotsuki. She looks like a Peanuts Comic strip. I don't know about you, but Charlie brown with chink eyes doesn't do it for me.

Being FOTM or getting a boost from it is not inherently a bad thing. Shadow was disliked because his FOTM boost was a mediocre film and a small new campaign, as well as just being an inherently controversial character from a controversial series.
The most similar case to him is ironically his opponent in 2023, Rayman. He got FOTM from a DLC campaign and an appearance in a whatever Netflix show. But the difference is that people generally like Rayman. Dude qualified for the first time and made it to E8 and nobody took issue with it. There's other examples like this.
>Geno in 2023 with the SMRPG remake. Didn't do much with it but at least qualified properly for the first time.
>Regigigas in 2024 with the leaks. Seen as a welcome addition that gave him more material to work with.
>Garland in 2022 who uses it to go out and win. Much more divisive but generally has stood the test of time with anons still playing and enjoying his game to this day.
FOTM like many other methods of campaigning is a valid tactic that shakes things up and puts new characters in the limelight. Like it or not, the reason Shadow is different is because there's a sizable group of people that flat out just don't like him.

>Samus
Kind of a meh winner if we're being honest. I'd say she's a step up from Zelda and Peach but she's still the predictable Nintendo winner.
>Reimu
Touhou is a staple of the site so being the second winner makes a lot of sense. Reimu's personality makes her stand out among the cast especially.
>Recette
The only thing I can really say about her is that she had some history with /v/. Other than that, she was carried hard by a campaign and wouldn't have gone far otherwise.
>Midna
The one Nintendo winner who should have won to begin with. Beloved waifu on /v/ and one of the best winners if not the best winner of the bunch.
>Curly
Midna's competition for best winner. Cave Story is one of the indie classics and it only makes sense that Curly is best girl.
>Mado
Another indie classic that's held in high regards by the board and it only makes that Mado made her triumphant comeback after a bullshit defeat.

Overall, a 4/6, could easily see this becoming a 5/7.

Now for king.
>Armstrong
Given how much love is given to Revengeance, it only makes sense that Armstrong is the inaugural winner. One could make an argument that it should have gone to Raiden but Armstrong is that much of an engaging antagonist and source of many memes.
>Dante
Like Samus, kind of a meh winner. Sure DMC and Capcom in general are well liked on /v/ but Dante just feels like a predictable, safe pick given what came before and after.
>Batter
While the campaign itself gets rightly criticized, OFF is another indie classic that deserves to be immortalized here. Good winner, just needed to keep the campaign in check.
>Garland
The only FF pick realistically allowed. Good pick that has aged well compared to if Cloud or Sephiroth won and the game still gets accolades on the board.
>Grimm
Black Souls is /v/ gem and Grimm himself is an interesting character to win a tournament like this.
>Shadow
Contributed a lot to meme culture and the game released earlier that year was really good. Shadow definitely earned his win that year.

5/6 feels right.

So they avoided each other like the plague for SIX years, argued, fought like rabid animals, and are now avoiding each other AGAIN for at minimum a year, maybe longer. They hate each in-tournament as much, if not more than Eggman and Schizos. That's funny.

For me, it's Mileena, given how ravenous Mileenafags can be. She did come close to qualifying in 2020, though. Also Makoto from Persona 5. I can actually see how she'd miss the first year, but I'm a little less sure for the years where characters are voted in.

To be fair Dazai is notorious for having such a disproportionate amount of screentime and hogging story presence from all the other characters at least in the base game that he might as well be a main character of SMTV, and SMTV is generally the SMT game most people are familiar with besides Nocturne

People already like Hornet and the fact that she made it as a finalist before without Silksong says as much.
Jack isn’t hated because of FOTM, most of the flack he gets is for his underwhelming bracket run where it became pretty obvious he was winning after he stomped Doomguy.
Shadow is hated because FOTM is the only reason he gained traction. He was always a round 1 jobber or never qualified before this.

In retrospect it is crazy how close she got to winning when she was only a secondary character in the first game. The difference with Midna was only about 30 votes right?
I think the results we got were good, though. I fear Midna losing probably would've turned her into Queen's Eggman equivalent and we were able to have a good streak of Queen powerhouses win for a bit. Now I don't mind if this year's Queen is another dark horse underdog, or FOTM.

Yeah, Queen has a really healthy line-up of winners, and Midna's win is a big help in that. For people who aren't as big on the indie stars, she's another great champion for anons to rally around alongside Samus.

Know it's been said a lot already the past couple years, but Eggman should have just won 2021. Garland's win felt like it was near inevitable the following year, and while the schizo association helped I don't think Grimm NEEDED the Batter to win.

>How fair of a shot would Kratos have if the Norse series never happened?
Actually we can see just that looking at his results: before Ragnarok released he was a round 1-2 jobber who usually seeded pretty low, I assume he was mostly carried by nostalgia for the Greek games to get in but there wasn't much support for him beyond that
After Ragnarok released he immediately stopped qualifying and became a laughingstock. The only way he makes it back in is if the Death Battle Kratos vs Asura/KINGtos/We Must Be Better Men memes push him back in, but even then he'd end up as basically the new Alex YIIK where he's a massive funpost everyone is voting for as part of an ironic funny meme.
For the record by the way I absolutely do think /dbg/ will have an impact on trying to make Kratos into the next big memey hype campaign since if you've ever been to their general, even though it's on /co/ like half of the posters there are clearly not only /v/tards but King of /v/tards.

He would be remembered as a classic and nowadays for the remastered trilogy. No more games but the story concluded despite leaving a cliffhanger in GoW 3. The closest similar example I can think of is probably Max Payne, ended in a trilogy nothing more and nothing else since 2013.

Queen '24 was pretty bad when it came spite and seething, but I remember that the final round was one of the least terrible parts of the event. And voting for someone who you think should've won already isn't what I call spiteful. If anything, the only time people definitely voted for Mado out of spite was when she was against Hex Maniac.

General character hype is also a thing and people were explicitly against Madotsuki losing since she lost to recette in 2021 most people thought she was robbed. There's also the fact people didn't want her to be another Eggman so I can confidently consider her a spite win just not in the traditional sense of it in our usual tournament shenanigans.

Curly Brace wasn't a spite win when she beat Amaterasu, which is the key part to consider when comparing to other tournaments. Her wins up until then were very organic, and the extra bout against SHODAN was far more a general push against NSA's double elimination format more than being tied to any specific character.

I will say, while on the subject of this, I do wonder if NSA's huge spite campaign against Ammy was actually in part something she had planned out in anticipation of expecting her to beat Curly. Amaterasu had a strong 3rd place back in 2020 and lost to Midna the prior year, so it's possible NSA bet on her thinking she'd win.

Yeah, that was a rough turn of events. Battler didn't even try really campaigning against Waluigi that round, which was the worst part of it all. I like Waluigi, but he would have had no business winning that match in the few years prior to that.

Again, I have my doubts. Though, how many Nintendo characters are left who could realistically win, or people would even want to see win?

There was more that came out in 2024 than just Sonic. A big new RPG series from Atlus, a big new Vanillaware game, a Persona 3 remake, a new Yakuza game, an improved version of SMTV, and even a decent new Monkey Ball game. On the whole, I feel all of these were received at least fine on /v/ and certainly seemed to land well with audiences outside the site's most frequent users. Sega pushing hard to at least somewhat redeem Shadow's general image from all the years of saturation and memes making it less impactful was a huge part of that year, but the company in general just kept seeming to make most of the right decisions. The only serious controversy I can even think of from that year was the pricing and filler content with the Episode Aigis DLC.

Now that all said, I'd more than welcome a Year of Wario happening.

>>208440
Donkey Kong has always gotten max characters in King and the main character her performed fine for someone with almost no campaigning to his name. The franchise has probably been one of the least controversial from Nintendo on /v/, at least among their bigger faces. I will say that I am curious if the pricing and content with Bananza's DLC might hurt the game's overall reception, considering that up until it the game seemed to land fairly well overall with anons.

>>208442
>Though, how many Nintendo characters are left who could realistically win, or people would even want to see win?
Good question! I would take realistic as having any chance, even if it's fairly small.

>Wario is the most likely left, even if he's had poor luck getting back into Elite Eight the past couple years
>Mario and Luigi could both potentially do it, though they each have flaws: Mario suffers from strong mascot association and a generally more basic personality, while Luigi has been a largely silent contender who might be too comfortable as a lower Elite Eight placer
>Donkey Kong has generally done well and could potentially pull out a surprise win with the right campaign
>Zelda had been a Sweet 16 three times now in Queen, so she could potentially do it
>King K. Rool feels a lot stronger now that he's actually prominent in his own series again and beyond the realm of Smash autism, although this year's performance and campaign reception will be the true test of whether he has any actual potential or not.
>Palutena did really well last year and came out with almost no controversy, so a later win isn't entirely out of question. A lot seemed to believe she'd be at least a decent winner when the possibility came up last year. Then again, I can also see her ending
>Isabelle could luck out and get far, though anti-furry sentiment will be a serious issue in at least the elite rounds.
>Any of the big three Mario girls could get lucky, although their results do question this somewhat. Rosalina seems the most likely, with Peach and Daisy having serious shots-in-the-dark.
>Captain Falcon has had close calls to Elite Eight and generally remains quite well-liked, so possible he could win with the right bracket storm.
>Bowser still feels really slept-on and seems to be the most broadly beloved character from his series among general fans outside Luigi. Even on /v/, I don't see much actual criticism toward the character himself.
>King Dedede has had some really solid seeds over the years and, unlike Kirby or Meta Knight, might have the right charisma to pull off a win if he got lucky to actually pick up steam one year.
>Ridley could win or at least get far in a massive comeback campaign, which is better than 0% odds? Maybe?
>Tom Nook seems fairly uncontroversial despite being a low midcarder at best, so I'll give at least an honorable mention.

There could be others, but I do think these are the big ones I can pick out. Most of Nintendo's JRPG series have fallen hard in these tournaments, Fire Emblem and Xenoblade in particular. Splatoon feels too scattered for anyone to rally around one particular character. Characters like Link seem too much like fodder at this point. Maybe some new face comes out and stuns everyone, but the odds of that seem quite low. There's also flashes in the pan like Regigigas, but the fact he still couldn't make Elite Eight last year (although in part because of how that bracket fell) does bring question toward any resulting in an outright win.

In conclusion? The only top contender left is Wario, no question. Now in terms of others I personally would say could squeeze out wins in enough scenarios where they're at least above miracle runs? Mario, Palutena, Rosalina, Zelda, Donkey Kong, Isabelle, King K. Rool, Luigi, and Captain Falcon. Bowser and Dedede were in my consideration here, but they seem to have a serious problem getting filtered out. The rest either feel too fundamentally flawed to at least make it through an Elite Eight line-up or just haven't pulled enough results to make me believe they could pull it off. The only other characters I considered here were a Pokémon winner, but the series seems to scattered and focused on non-specific characters to have serious odds bar a very lucky run. Hex Maniac could maybe be in consideration if last year and the recent revelations on her main campaigner don't take down her reception on /v/ itself, though I feel it's a coin flip how that goes down.

One final clarification: when I say above a miracle run, that means that I could argue how any one of those characters might win if you gave me, for example, ten different brackets they'd have to overcome to win. Factoring who they face, how a successful campaign might go as the tournament shifted heavier toward them being crucial, which characters might end up being their opponents in the Elite Eight, etc. If I could likely argue how they could win in at least a majority of them, I feel they can be considered feasibly realistic as winners. I would have said Shadow was realistic, if quite unlikely, before he won as one example. I would say the only potential miracle winners on /v/ thus far would have been the 2021 winners, and if you look at the circumstances and the brackets for both you can see how they did absolutely get lucky how the cards fell.

I don't think Luigi and Captain Falcon are ever going to win, but I could at least buy how it might happen. That's more than I can say for a lot of other characters.

Palutena had a single non-drawfag campaigner, winning was never in the works for her that year. By the late rounds, you have to have at least some OC to your name.

The fact she got 4th (and almost 3rd) with largely that one campaigner feels like it speaks stronger to her than anything. The year being a weirder one likely was helping her more than hurting for what it was worth, but the fact she even made it to that point does make her seem like at least a semi-serious contender. Her results are also surprisingly good for an one-time Elite Eight member. Every girl she's lost against thus far has made Elite Eight in that given year, and she's never lost prior to the third round. She could always flunk her comeback and end up bowing out early to a weaker opponent, but she seems at least competent as a candidate. The question would be more if she's doomed to cap in the QF or SF under normal circumstances, or if she actually could win if she gets another strong run going. There were people last year who were happy to seriously weigh her as a winner once she got to Elite Eight, even if Mado vs. Hex was the main talking point up until her elimination against Ayla. You can really ask that about anyone there besides Wario for what it's worth, but the fact she's done so well up until now makes me lean on the side that she could pull it off. Always good to remember that only a very small portion of characters are actually going to win anyway, so having any real chunk of paths toward winning already feels worth acknowledging.

Since we're on the subject of Palutena, I would argue that out of last year's line-up she has one of the best chances of actually returning to the Elite Eight soon after her return next year. It was a weird one, and a lot of the characters either felt like lucky if cool additions (Baiken and, more arguably, Ayla) or more controversial picks that might not fare well upon rejoining the bracket (Hex and Miku specifically). Outside Shantae, who's relatively non-controversial outside being a less vocal pick, Palutena might be the safest one to predict returning to quarterfinals. Maybe Tifa can get a third run that far, but she's a weirder one to analyze.
