Board 8 > Fourpack of suck: Claire Dearing/Adam Malkovich, Torgo/Draven

(+) Yeah! (+)

Oh my.

Samus's abusive supposed mentor figure is the favorite to win this fourpack?

Thought Claire would at least be able to beat him, being a vastly more mainstream character and not being a Generic McDude.
---

I feel like Draven wins this by nature of being the only name I recognize, but maybe I'm missing something
---

League of Legends, Manos: The Hands of Fate, Jurassic World, and Metroid: Other M. Truly murderer's row.

I thought Adam would get anti-votes and Claire would soak them up like a sponge.

Wow, you've actually devised a winnable fourpack for Draven! Nice work! That being said, I still think Adam would probably win this one.

Also, in order for a character to actually benefit from antivotes against their opposition, they have to be generally recognizable and at least somewhat well-liked, neither of which Claire strikes me as.

On name alone, Claire has a disadvantage (maybe with a picture of Dallas Bryce Howard, some people might back Ms. Running From a T. rex in High Heels), even if Other M ruined the goodwill Adam raised with Fusion. Torgo must have more fans/joke support (Manos has a cult following, plus MST3k geeks, that must outnumber the League of Draven when not rallied into a swarm).

To be fair Claire isn't exactly super well-liked, I just thought that a pretty girl from a huge movie would be able to benefit from Adam being a hated Generic McDude character from a hated game. Then again not that Jurassic World is some super well-liked film either.

Maybe I should have made Admiral Holdo instead of Torgo for the last one lol. Or Adam vs. Holdo and Claire vs. Elise or something?

Serious talk: in hindsight, for all the crap Adam gets, he isn't even much of a presence in Other M at all. He and Samus have ONE scene together. Which can actually be kind of nice at times, but still, ew.

My god does that game seem so stupid in retrospect. Why did I defend it?

Not that I disagree with Claire, only when she becomes more active by the final third of the movie her personality turns tolerable. And it continues in the new movie (which is even more divisive!). But yes, Adam is a huge part of why people hate Other M - thankfully I haven't played it yet - and the matchup would be a rare case of shared hatred/anti-voting.

Haven't heard people express hatred for Torgo, only for Manos itself. Holdo, on the other hand, you're onto something - her sacrifice is a great action, but her contributions to the plot before, goddamit.
