This is a topic to rate the contest strength of potential newcomers in the current contest environment.

I will pick the characters to rate and discuss for each day from user nominations - whoever the 3 most nominated characters are at that time. If there are more than 3 I will pick randomly. You can nominate any number of characters at any time, but you cannot nominate the same character twice.

All characters who were present in the 2018 Character Battle will NOT be eligible. Otherwise you can nominate any character that has appeared in video games; even comic book characters. This will exclude real-life athletes who have only appeared in long running sports series, however I will accept those who have their own games such as Shaq. I will accept nominations for iconic gaming duos too, if there is a compelling reason for both characters to be linked (either co-starring in a game ala Banjo & Kazooie, or always appearing together like Callie & Marie from Splatoon).

Each day will have a separate topic, and nominations will carry over. As far as actually rating the character's contest strength; I ask that users rank a characters potential strength with one of the following qualifiers - LAW Fodder, Low Fodder, Mid Fodder, High Fodder, Fodder Line, Low Midcarder, Midcarder, High Midcarder, Near Elite, Elite, LAW Tier (capable of beating Link). I will average all the ratings given to a character to come up with their final ranking. I have included a highlighted entrant from Character Battle X on each tier of the strength rankings below, to provide a baseline for each.

Note that LAW Fodder is meant to be a tier reserved for the weakest possible characters to put into a contest. A character will only be placed there if at least 3/4ths of the voters for that day agree on the LAW Fodder rating, and no ratings above Low Fodder are given. If either of those conditions are not met, the character will not be eligible for the LAW Fodder tier.

If you feel that a character has been over or under-ranked, or if a new development has come up that would affect their contest strength, you may nominate them for a re-ranking. You may nominate one character per day for this, and 3 votes are needed to get them on the slate. One character with 3 votes will come up for re-ranking today.

Low Fodder for Metal Face and Carl. Metal Face is a memorable villain but a bit too hateable to get a huge amount of support. Carl I only give Low Fodder due to being the main character of a highly-praised Disney movie, though not one I would bet on having a decent watch rate on Gfaqs.

I'm not sure how well-liked Harle is, but I will say Mid Fodder. Her design and faux-French speech are memorable and she definitely has an interesting role in the game.

Low Fodder for Alicia. The original Valkyria Chronicles is decently popular on the site - it made the previous GOTD and Best Game Ever 2015 and didn't do terribly. She'd definitely be stronger than Welkin but not nearly enough to move up a tier.

Low Fodder for Jon Irenicus. He should be known well enough to not be law since he's a major villain in the series.

I will give Chell the benefit of the doubt and say Mid Fodder. She is a silent protagonist in a first-person game series, but her appearance is pretty well-known at this point and her match pic will probably feature the Portal gun as well. While she never speaks a word or shows emotion in the games, she does get some indirect characterization from the amount of passive-aggression and insults she has thrown at her by Glados and Wheatley.

Bugs Bunny I will put at the Fodder Line. He has appeared in a large number of games but doesn't really have a good one to his name. I still don't think he's under the fodder line though - much of the Gamefaqs demographic (myself included) grew up on Looney Tunes reruns on Cartoon Network in the 90s and early 2000s. Plus there's Space Jam.

nominate Bugs Bunny for Re-Ranking. He's an icon, but not one particularly relevant to gaming and doesn't get pushed as much as Mickey. I wouldn't put him below the fodder line but it may literally only be Space Jam keeping him there.

Low Fodder for Juliet. She did okish in 2013, though her TJF was nullified by Tharja being in the match. I don't think there's much chance of a cheerleader with a chainsaw falling to law range.

Yuri I will say is Low Fodder. He looked law range in 2013 but I think this site has probably retained a fair amount of Shadow Hearts fans who will give Yuri enough support to not be complete garbage fodder.

Low Fodder for Tim. Judging by how well other indie titles did in GOTD2 Braid should still have some fans on the site. It is quite well-known for an indie too - it was in GOTD1 iirc.

Dirk the Daring got blown out by -Max Payne- in his only contest appearance. Sure it was 2002 but I don't expect him to have gotten any stronger then. LAW Fodder for him.

Low Fodder for Ethan Winters. I know next to nothing about RE7 but he seems to be a major character, and the game didn't do bad in GOTD despite its bad seeding. He's too much of a generic mcdude to be considered for mid though.

Low Fodder for Lucia as well. She just has the misfortune to be stuck in DMC2 which absolutely no one likes.

Mid Fodder for Melia - she's pretty well-liked and has the waifu princess thing going for her.

I'll say Low Fodder for Wooloo. Sure it might be the most popular Gen 8 Pokemon, but I don't think that counts for a whole lot on Gfaqs. And Wooloo really only has general cuteness going for it after that.

Low Fodder for Jade. Beyond Good and Evil 2 is not out yet and the HD release of BG&E was nearly 10 years ago. She was also very weak when she did appear in contests.

Booker is very close for me but I will say Low Fodder. He didn't do badly in 2013, but Bioshock Infinite was at its peak popularity at the time and massively hyped. I think he'll be much weaker nowadays but I don't think its hugely due to be a "generic mcdude". It's more that the series hasn't had a single release since then.

Mid Fodder for Cave Combustible Lemon Johnson. Might have been high years ago but Portal 2 isn't as big nowadays and Cave won't have the most compelling match pic.

I'm not certain on Legolas but I will say High Fodder for now. He has a lot of good action scenes in the LotR movies but he doesn't stand out in terms of personality next to Aragorn or Gimli.

I've only played a bit of the OG FFXII so I don't have a great idea on Basch, but he seems to be liked decently well and has plot relevance, so I will give him Mid Fodder.

A character will only be placed there if at least 3/4ths of the voters for that day agree on the LAW Fodder rating, and no ratings above Low Fodder are given. If either of those conditions are not met, the character will not be eligible for the LAW Fodder tier.

You may nominate one character per day for this, and 3 votes are needed to get them on the slate. One character with 3 votes will come up for re-ranking today.

Agree with Low Fodder for Vector.

Ashley is not really Gamefaqs' type of character and I don't think Warioware is very strong as a series here. But her insanely catchy theme song being in multiple Smash games and her popularity as both a potential Smash character and among certain Nintendo circles should be enough to get her to Mid Fodder.

We ranked Mike Wazowski as mid fodder and I say Sully is Mid Fodder too. Monster's Inc may not be a top tier Disney movie but it is very likely more popular on this site than something like Frozen. I think 2005 or so is when we can start doubting the popularity of high and mid tier Disney movies on the site.

I support nomination for Ashley (WarioWare) and Melia Antiqua. I also wish to nominate Wooloo. Also, a question: is it possible to nominate Wolf Link, or is that going overboard?

We've had Toon Link, Dark Link, Young Link and CD-I Link so far; Wolf Link is the next logical step. I'll second him.

This is a topic to rate the contest strength of potential newcomers in the current contest environment.

I will pick the characters to rate and discuss for each day from user nominations - whoever the 3 most nominated characters are at that time. If there are more than 3 I will pick randomly. You can nominate any number of characters at any time, but you cannot nominate the same character twice.

All characters who were present in the 2018 Character Battle will NOT be eligible. Otherwise you can nominate any character that has appeared in video games; even comic book characters. This will exclude real-life athletes who have only appeared in long running sports series, however I will accept those who have their own games such as Shaq. I will accept nominations for iconic gaming duos too, if there is a compelling reason for both characters to be linked (either co-starring in a game ala Banjo & Kazooie, or always appearing together like Callie & Marie from Splatoon).

Each day will have a separate topic, and nominations will carry over. As far as actually rating the character's contest strength; I ask that users rank a characters potential strength with one of the following qualifiers - LAW Fodder, Low Fodder, Mid Fodder, High Fodder, Fodder Line, Low Midcarder, Midcarder, High Midcarder, Near Elite, Elite, LAW Tier (capable of beating Link). I will average all the ratings given to a character to come up with their final ranking. I have included a highlighted entrant from Character Battle X on each tier of the strength rankings below, to provide a baseline for each.

Note that LAW Fodder is meant to be a tier reserved for the weakest possible characters to put into a contest. A character will only be placed there if at least 3/4ths of the voters for that day agree on the LAW Fodder rating, and no ratings above Low Fodder are given.

Francis is definitely bordering on law but I will give him Low Fodder. I think most people who played Deadly Premonition will be inclined to vote for him, being a cult game protagonist and all.

R. Mika is Mid Fodder for being TJF personified - the revealing wrestling costume helps too. Plus her comeback in SFV was pretty big (reminder that the game made it as a 10 seed in GOTD despite how hard it got bashed during the first year of release).

I guess I'll give the FLUDD Mid Fodder. It's kind of in a similar place to Cappy, but with a lot more potential for nostalgia votes.

JC Denton I will say is Low Fodder, though he might be close to mid. Deus Ex has some popularity on the site yet and JC does have the "A bomb!" meme going for him.

I honestly don't know what Stanley's match pic will end up being. His likeness is only shown in two instances in the game, and his back is turned for one. From what I can see he looks very generic, to the point where I'm not sure a lot of people who have played the game will even recognize him. That combined with TSP looking very weak in GOTD - I say LAW Fodder for him.

Flint however is an easy LAW Fodder vote from me. His game wasn't released outside of Japan and he doesn't have Smash to fall back on like Lucas.

Mid Fodder for Xehanort. He didn't directly appear in KH1 or 2 but he is the main antagonist of the series with big roles in Birth by Sleep and KH3.

Low Fodder for Rawk Hawk. An NPC appearance in one Paper Mario game isn't enough for him to be mid, especially since he has little else to his name.

Low Fodder for Nemo. It's close since he's the namesake of the movie, but I just don't see Gfaqs caring enough. Plus the sequel was focused on Dory instead of him.

Mid Fodder for The Penguin. He's had plenty of notable portrayals in movies and cartoons, and had a large role in Arkham City.

Low Fodder for Kite and Dory. Kite is essentially the main character of the .hack game series and has a lot of appearances, and I'm sure Gfaqs has a decent number of fans still on the boards. Dory is recognizable and from a popular movie, but I don't see too many people caring.
