The Fighter Character Battle: Seasonals

King

Let's face it. He's just the best. He wears a leopard mask and can actually growl like one. Plus, he's freakin' sexy.
 
There can be only one...and this time, it was KING!

Time for my favorite thing in the world, random statkeeping!

After four months, we have gone through ten different fighting games of various degrees of popularity.

The most popular bouts have been Guilty Gear and Street Fighter, while the lest popular bout has been (sadly) Waku Waku 7.

Of the winners, only two of them are Female, ALICE and NOEL. There have been only 4 females who have made the final rounds thus far as well.

We also have BRIDGET, who is the only transvestite champion thus far. (and likely will be the only transvestite champion.)

Only one creature, FERNANDEZ, has won their tournament. The only other creature to advance that far has been GIGI.

Of former champions who have been featured, none have made it past the first or second round of their respected tournaments.

We have two wrestling style characters who have won their tournaments, being WOLF and KING. Two ninjas also have won, KENJI and SUB-ZERO.

An interesting mix of winners so far. Hopefully we keep the good times rolling, because we got some good games coming up....

I will reveal at least two of them...SOUL CALIBUR, and DARKSTALKERS are upcoming. I might also throw in some more obscure games...like the one that is coming up next....may I present to you....................


WEAPONLORD!!!!

Released for consoles only, a rarity back in the 16 bit era, Weaponlord was a 2-d fighting game for the Super Nintendo and later the Genesis that had a very deep and complex parry and counter system, rich, gory graphics, a combo system, and a Sword and Sorcery setting to die for. The seven fighters made Conan look like a wimp, and the gameplay, while seen as a mixed bag back in the day, was ahead of it's time, doing things that games like Street Fighter III would eventually do several years later to greater effect.

Weaponlord, btw, is a hard game to beat. I still haven't beaten the game, but it's still awesome in my mind.

Now there are seven fighters in Weaponlord, and the rules in this matchup will be a bit different than before. We will have all seven characters participate in the tournament, we will be picking the top four Olympic style, with the most votes each round.

first, let's meet our characters, in alphabetical order...

BANE

The way this round is going to work is that you must vote for two characters at once. After a day, the character with the most votes will move on to the next round.. We will do this for four rounds, then move on to the final four as normal. Should take a week, and should be a nice break from the normal schedule.

Oh, and if you want more info on the game, check out youtube for videos on it.

So let's get it on.....

My two votes for this round go to Divada and Zorn. Let the picking begin!
 
Hopefully you all love the obscure. This is part of the fun of doing this :), and I at least want to make it interesting, kind of like the NCAA, you know.
 
BANE and ZARAK

You're doing a great job of balancing the known and the unknown Links, I've found games in this tournament that I had never heard of before. Fantastic job man. :D
 
Jen-tai
Bane
