Yeah Marvel I'm sorry but G14 is just a far better design that's actually compelling compared to most of what came after it.

Marvel failed to make substantial progress. Moving on.

Not gonna lie. I’ve always felt like FinalGoji has a lot in common with the ‘55 suit. I’ve gone as far as to say it looks like a modern interpretation of that suit. And it’s actually a little tough to pick between the two…. Which is better, the original or the modern remake? Lol.

So I took the time to google some photos of each suit and… yeah. Sorry FW, you’re a genuinely good suit but the irregular spines, the larger more retrosaur-ish head, the wild fangs, the whole vintage 50’s movie monster aesthetic. ‘55 got my vote.

Hello everyone!!! It's been years since I had any interaction in the server, so hopefully I can still participate in this! :D

With that said, damn I didn't know '55 had fans that prefer him to FW Goji lmao, is this a tournament of hot takes? :lol:

But yeah, I'm voting for the FW fella, with that said, G55 has his moments to shine in some shots, I could argue at times he looks more like Shin than '54 does.

Ok, how the hell is this happening again? I mean goddamn I know ratzilla isn’t a top tier design or anything but is it really worth it to gas up a sabertooth Salamander on crack in comparison? :lol:

I’m genuinely astonished. I fully expected mine to be one of the only votes for 55 and was expecting to watch 04 sweep this one hard. This whole bracket has been one surprise after another honestly.

Oh, crap. Hmmm. This one... is rough. I reflexively want to vote Showa because that's the right thing to do, but if I'm being actually 100% honest...

You know, screw it. I was actually just about to rewatch G14. I'll see ol' Bronto Feet in action again and go from there.

Oh. I threw G14 a pity vote. Trolls? Dupe accounts? Even on TK, I didn't expect it to be this lopsided.

If this was an election, I'd say we are witnessing "voting irregularities." But, alas, I have no way to prove it. Perhaps I should make a new rule where the mercy rule is extended if the tournament runner believes irregularities are at work. But then that would be completely subjective.

Rules updated on page one. I'm not sure if Amendment I contradicts Rule 4, but I don't think it does. It just gives me more options.

Edit: An alternative would be requring each vote to be "explained" in the comments in order to count. But I think this may be tedious and hurt the flow of the tournament.

Edit 2: Per the new rule, the Mercy Rule is being extended an hour.

What the fu…
Who gave the Showa stans crack in the morning? :lol:
Jokes aside voted G14, in general a much better realizes design and unlike the alternative it’s not a downgrade of a significantly superior suit.
