I picked Sans/Pac-Man/Bayonetta/Riku

Voted Noctis's pack, but the Aloy/D.Va/Jill/Fox one is a closer contender.
---

Voted for Sans, but Monika is second.
---

Definitely not an anagram poll.
---

Ellie/Kos-Mos/Aqua/Quiet is my vote most of the characters are unknowns.

Ellie is from one of the most well regarded modern games.

Aqua and Quiet are both from the black sheep games of their individual franchises. I think MGS has the stronger franchise, but KH3 is pretty close to coming out.

And Kos-Mos has only won against fodder, she loses whenever theres an actual threat. So shes hard to predict when we no nothing about all the other characters

All three matches in this fourpack are hard to pick all the other ones at least have one fairly simply match to guess

The pack with Sans and Bayonetta is brutal, because those two are such wildcards. I want to choose Sans as a fanboy pick, but Pac-Man really isn't a slouch and Sans is gonna be an anti-vote magnet for sure.

On the flip side, I think Geralt and D.Va have the best odds of catching rally support. Especially Geralt. Witcher fans are a whole different animal, and Geralt isn't somebody that people are going to be rushing to anti-vote.

monikas four pack is monika and three pieces of absolute garbage

wario, noctis and master hand are all so bad monika can beat them all without rallies. but i'm not picking that because as much meme power as monika has it's still a character from a VN released in 2017.

the others:
- Kefka/L-Block is insanely hard, but whoever wins beats Bomberman/Kiryu easily
- I don't trust Shadow or Ness. 2B is in a recent game the site actually likes and those two aren't.
- I feel fairly confident about Wrigth > Ike
- whoever wins in Jill/Fox beats Aloy/D.Va easily. I took Fox.
- I just said give me Aerith and then stopped thinking about it.
- Geralt's 4-pack is the next hardest one. Does Simon actually become decent because of Smash? Does the Ryu that beat Zero show up, or is it the one that got tripled by Mega Man? Is Geralt actually good? Is Rosalina good? Those are questions without answers.
- I think it'll go down to Sans vs. Riku. I'll take Riku because KH3 hype. I guess.
- People actually do care about Tails and he was in Sonic Mania which is way more this site's thing than Uncharted or Halo so you know what, fuck it, give me the fox boy over shooter boys. Tails definitely won't have brackets on his side though, which could hurt him.
- I took KOS-MOS twice without much thinking

(5) Sans vs. (12) Pac-Man, (4) Bayonetta vs. (13) Riku

I can see this going any combination of ways.
---

the first one is the only one where i can see literally anything happening

the Sans one i could see anything happen except Pac-Man winning two matches

those are by far the two most difficult IMO
---

2B/Shadow/Ness. I have no idea how to order those three, especially since Ness will likely get that registered-voter boost.
