Zelda Dungeon’s Fall Brawl Character Contest 5: And The Winner Is…
Posted on November 02 2023 by Andy Spiteri
Welcome… to Fall Brawl!
Just in time for Halloween, for the fifth year, the Fall Brawl Character Contest is back. 2019 saw Midna take home the top prize. 2020 saw Skull Kid squeak out a thrilling last minute victory. 2021 had Sheik dominating the field. 2022 saw the charismatic enigma Ghirahim take home the title. This year, the field is wide open and a NEW Champion will be crowned. The premise is simple: 64 characters enter, and in a spin on a regular NCAA-style tournament, these characters compete in matches throughout the bracket until only one remains! This is strictly a popularity contest, so vote for your favorite!
Tears of the Kingdom is out and its impact will felt all over the bracket, as the field is crammed with new contenders and old favorites who may have gotten a “Tears Boost”, as I’m dubbing it! Is it finally time for some of our competitors who have gotten so close before, or will we be crowning our first Tears of the Kingdom Champion? Let’s find out!
