Bottom 1024 — Week 26 — Poll 29

Post by This Old Neon »

Welcome to the #BGE2020 Elimination Round Lower Bracket!

Each game in the lower bracket is still seeded based on its performance in the two opening rounds of pools! Every game in the lower bracket has already been defeated by another game in a 1-on-1 poll to get to this point. This is their chance to claw their way back into the main event... but the stakes are high. The games that lose in these polls are out of the tournament for good! The games that survive will face the next crop of upper bracket losers in the next round.

Polls are updated weekly, typically on Saturday... or Sunday or Monday. Check back throughout the week to make sure you don't miss a vote!

HOW TO VOTE

This is easy. You only get one vote per poll. The game with the most votes wins. In the event of a tie, the higher seed advances, so don't get complacent!

RTK3 is only a hair behind RTK2 for the coveted title of the best game in the early series (pre RTK6 or 7 depending on where you draw the line). It has an interesting stylized battle system and actually fantastic city battles where you have to fight in the field and break into the city to do battle there as well (in contrast to RTK2 which were entirely field battles, and RTK4, which has really awkward city wall siege things).

Plus I love the music. It has a really unique sound to it. Track ahead to 12:23 (theme of Wei & Wu) for one of my fave tracks in the game. The SNES version sounds warmer and better but I'm not finding it on YouTube very easily:
