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!

Come on RNG, why you gotta do us like this? Both PS1 RPG masterpieces.

Xenogears loses significant points because the whole second half of the game is just anime cut-scenes and a guy sitting in a chair narrating exposition, with the occasional hour-long unskippable cutscene right before a boss fight with no save point in between.

Vagrant Story gains points by being incredibly stylish and overcoming the PS1's blocky limitations with incredible stylishness. Also get some Ivalice team storytelling.
