Terraria Calamity - Servants of the Scourge (Theme of the Sentinels of the Devourer)
Ys VIII: Lacrimosa of Dana - A-to-Z MATCH 1 And we're back to very close matches again! I seem to be in the mood for Servants of the Scourge today, so this makes the match a little easier to decide, but it's still pretty close between the two songs. There are times that I've listened to this song and thought that it kinda dragged a bit, which would've made the match really difficult to decide and possibly a situation where I might have had the opposite vote, but that's not the case today. I think I'm enjoying Servants of the Scourge just a little bit more, so it gets my vote here. MATCH 2 This match is much easier to decide compared to this first one. Follin bangers are great and all, but A-to-Z is just so good, so I have to vote for A-to-Z here. A-to-Z > Servants of the Scourge > Level 1 > Id (Purpose) I feel bad for putting Id (Purpose) last for today, but that's just what I'm feeling right now. I like all the songs today and the bottom 3 for today, I'd say, are very close. If you lose today, Id (Purpose), then I'm sorry and I hope you get to retire eventually. ... Copied to Clipboard!

Ys VIII: Lacrimosa of Dana - A-to-Z man if devil trigger were here this would be an all-timer retirement four-pack. it'll just have to settle for a really good one. The first half of Servants of the Scourge makes me think "I'd be okay with this song winning the contest" but then the back half brings it down a bit and made this a close match again. --- xp1337: Don't you wish there was a spell-checker that told you when you a word out? ...

22. Terraria Calamity - Servants of the Scourge (Theme of the Sentinels of the Devourer) (7) (over Challenge to the Vertex)
vs. 27. Fire Emblem: Awakening - Id (Purpose) (7) (over Dornward ~Junge~) Closest match of round 3 so far! Servants of the Scourge is a song I always think I'm going to like more than I actually do. The intro is so promising and then it just lasts for so long without doing much else. I think I like the second movement the best, with its frenetic deep-bass assertiveness. Honestly though if I rerated the song, I'd likely give it around 6 or so. It really depends on my mood. Id (Purpose) is a song that likewise has a strong opening before eventually deviating and doing something else. Unlike Servants, I stay with Id (Purpose) the whole time. It's quite a ride - very uplifting and heroic and destiny, but not cliched. It's always doing something interesting. This is the first time I'm deviating from my round 3 rankings. and 30. Silver Surfer - Level 1 (6.5) (for Devil Trigger) vs. 24. Ys VIII: Lacrimosa of Dana - A-to-Z (7) (over Downtown Jazz, In the Flame) Another close match! I'm a big chiptune guy but Level 1 is one of those "objective appreciation" songs that never moves me emotionally. Lots of impressive technical stuff here, but I come away feeling exactly the same as I did before the song started. A-to-Z is prototypical Falcom, so you'd think I wouldn't like it, but the melody is very strong and the energy is HIGH OCTANE. The violins aren't overpowering, which is key for me to like a Falcom track. This one was a real sleeper hit for throughout the contest - I've voted for it every round (though its competition hasn't been, well, competitive), and I'm voting for it here!

A-to-Z Oh my god, what an incredibly strong four-pack! From the VGMC 13 field, it's got my favourite Calamity song, favourite FE song, favourite Follin song, favourite Falcom song...you get the point. I'd be fine with any and/or all of these songs retiring...who let this happen. Long Calamity song vs. even longer FE song, it's basically the sequel to day 51. Not to mention the two winners may meet in the bracket B final! Short song vs. short song. Easy to remember names. --- -Abraham Lincoln ... Copied to Clipboard!

Dang, I miss a day and there's a tie.
Oh, ha, I noticed people wondering if Infestation and Scourge would meet each other after seeing how badly the former whupped Don't Speak Her Name. I didn't expect another battle of the same pair of games, though! Servants of the Scourge is pretty amazing in the first half, but it kind of goes sideways in the middle. But then it returns to what it was doing before for a bit. Id ~ Purpose has a bit more of that epic feel, though. This definitely isn't as easy a choice as the last Terraia-FE:A match. Well, at least the second match isn't tough. Votes: Servants of the Scourge A-to-Z Rankings: A-to-Z > Servants of the Scourge > Id (Purpose) > Level 1 Really wanted to vote for Id (Purpose), because it's still not the retirement round yet and because it's a game I've actually played. But I just couldn't pull the trigger. The more I listened to them, trying to confirm my vote for Id (Purpose), the less I liked the song, to the point that it was closer to falling below Level 1 than actually getting my vote. --- Also known as Cyberchao X. ...

Servants of the Scourge
A-to-Z Strong day. Scaling up! (Edit: Darn it, I always forget to erase my non-picks!) Match 1: So this is what I was talking about yesterday regarding FE: Awakening. This song is not bad per se, but listening to at least 4 minutes of an orchestrated piece with a rather classical approach is what kind of bores me from the beginning. As for Servants of the Scourge... I haven't seen its placement on the bracket yet, but a Scourge vs. Infestation match later on is not only quite possible, but also something I would be really be looking forward too. Match 2: This match-up surprised me. At the time of writing, I came into the topic, saw this match and said: "Eh, Silver Surfer's got this in the bag", since I was actually kind of underwhelmed by how A-to-Z sounded in the previous rounds. But hey, it's Falcom being friggin' Falcom, and that's not something to take lightly. Like, at all. This is probably the best match of Round 3, and of the contest so far as well. Rankings time. Let's see. *listens*... Wow, interesting. I thought Scourge was going to be first: A-to-the-ZUARC > World's Most Fragile Villain > SotSTotSotD >>> Identification (Not Accident) --- It's an honor being part of Board 8's community. ...
