Season 42 Nomination pools

[superaielman]

If you need an explaination, check this link. You can also ask questions in this topic.

Pools close at Saturday at 10pm EST, next week. You can nominate three characters per game, but only two characters per division. You have to have between four and six characters per pool, and all four divisions must be the same size. (Heavy, Godlike, and Middle can't have six people while Light has four, etc). There are no limits on the number of nomination pools, so take your time, check to see what looks interesting, and have fun. Anyone from season 38 and before is available to be nominated this season. Reaons are not needed to submit a pool, we just do that for fun.

Admin pro-tip: this link should link to all characters eligible for nomination this season. Check this as well. It's Hal's nomchecker and it kicks ass.

[superaielman]

Ramirez (SoA), Dhoulmagus (DQ8), Citan Uzuki (XG), Luca Blight (S2), TimeLord (Saga), Cidolfas Orlandu (FFT)
Red (Saga), Edge Eblan (FF4), Justin (G1), Rune Walsh (PS4), Claude Kenni (SO2), Feena (G1)
Keneth (S4), Cid Highwind (FF7), Duran (SD3), Vaynard (Brig), Beowulf Kamdus (FFT), Lexis Shaia (Lufia 2)
Yushis (OB), Viktor (Suikos), Ernest Raviede (SO2), Turnip (CC),Beecham (S3), Freed Y (S2)

1. Silver Nightmare hype.
2. One match? Deserves another fight.
3. High drawing filler. Also gives me an excuse to put up a new Citan image.
4. Time to put the torch to Godlike.
5. Because goddamn does Godlike need a heavy dose of TL every season.
6. Edge+Orlandu in the same season always leads to good things.

1. Is Red, thus wins.
2-6. Justin's circle (enemies/allies), plus Edge. Edge is always good to have in a writeup! EDIT: Booted Melbu, donno why. Just a hunch.

1. Been trying since Season 27 for Keneth. I'm not quitting now!
2. Strong draw, due, cool.
3-4. The Norgard Defense Force is on the prowl!
5. Solid status slinging PC. Also good in game.
6. Lufia 2 PC's are all neat.

1. Needs to match her sister's (NR) success!
2. Insanely overdue. Been out since S13.
3. Sonic Whip hype is just that badass.
4. Fails, but in a funny way.
5. Old favorite who only had one fight against someone who champed. (Sophia) Worth a shot to see if he can have some success.   
6. I kinda feel bad what happened last season, so here's a free Freed nom.

[Unoriginal]

Godlike: Choko, Elc, Kefka, Ness, Ryu 2, Songi

Heavy: Tosh, Momo, Edge Eblan, Lang, Geshp, Presea

Middle: Ayne, Maya, Noa, Cid Highwind, Zidane, Dekar

Light: Algus, Nina 3, Banon, Tao, Edward, Big Joe

[SnowFire]

Godlike
Indalecio (SO2)
Luther (SO3)
Tir (S1)
Rika (PS4)
Rosa (FF4)
Orlandu (FFT)

One of these days, Indalecio will champ...  some day. (Edit: Now with more Yuna-killing.)

Heavy
Sasarai (S3)
Crono (CT)
Maria (SO3)
Marisa (FE8)
Ziggy (XS)
Arnaud (WA4)

The "don't have matches in heavy yet - Lucian" brigade + Sas & Crono, now that Tifa got in and failed it up.

Middle
Aelia (VP)
Tear (TotA)
Rena (SO2)
Cid (FF7)
Alice (SH1)
Lise (SD3)

Edit: And Elly got in and had to face Sara, right.

Light
Malak Galthana (FFT)
Rafa Galthana (FFT)
Riddel (CC)
Dinn (S5)
Zhuzen (SH1)
Gobi (BoF)

Maybe the cause of Malak's strange fear of the DL is because he doesn't have his sister coming with him?  Worth a shot.

[Pyro]

1. Due. Needs a better draw than Yuna.
2. Due and cool.

6. Spoilers are fun too.

Heavy: Arc, Tosh, Lilka, Eirika, Hect, Erim
1. Let's see how he holds up in Heavy
2. Season like 7. Is cool.

[Sierra]

EDIT: 53-58, for my reference.

Godlike: Luther Lansfeld (SO3) Seymour (FFX) Genevieve (VP) Virgil (XS) False Althena (XS) Velna (LoL2)

1. VA hype, mostly.
2. Champ already, damn you.
3. Attack of the quadracasters.
4. XS3 hype?!
5. Get a better record already, dammit.
6. Only one appearance, and an opening round loss at that.

Heavy: Ayla (CT) Neifirst (PSII) Sync (TotA) Anastasia Valeria (WA2) Veronica Vera (SH2) Jean (LEBC)

1. No wins, out for nearly twenty seasons? That's just wrong.
2. Phanboy power compels me!
3. No matches. Also, I clearly hate you all and this is my way of showing it~
4. Win more matches! You're in Heavy, you can actually do that now!
5. All the SH2 bosses had one appearance and then vanished. This is weird and should be turned around. So, naturally, Cid noms the dominatrix.

2. No matches, fails hilariously.
3. No matches. Sucks, but still.
4. Sixth time's the charm? Let's find out!
5. Light is Suikotastic. Anyway, always liked her for some reason. Probably just the design.
6. Probably due. Fear his mad plot powers.
