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!

I enjoy RTK4, but it's not among the best of the classic series IMO. The full scrolling map is interesting, and the siege battles are kind of interesting, but the game felt slower than the previous well-paced ones without having increased strategic complexity as an excuse for it.

Guardian Heroes is one of the ur beat'em-ups, one of the earlier/better/most notable ones to add leveling and RPG mechanics (River City Ransom was earlier, of course) and it would certainly deserve to advance here. Hmm... yeah, I think I'll give it my vote. Sorry RTK.
