Zelda Dungeon’s Fall Brawl Character Contest 3: And The Winner Is…
Posted on September 07 2021 by Andy Spiteri
Welcome… to Fall Brawl!
Summer is over, but don’t fret: for the third 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. This year, the field is wide open and a NEW Champion will be crowned. The premise is simple: 64 Zelda 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!
Who is the real Elite among Zelda characters? That’s up to YOU to decide!
Voting – All voting will take place on this page. This page will be updated daily, so bookmark it!
The Rules – Polls will last exactly 24 hours. You may vote once. If you are caught cheating, your votes will be removed and you will be banned from participating in the future. Feel free to tweet to try and rally support, but don’t be overbearing.
The Schedule – Fall Brawl will take place from September 13th to September 25th. For a full breakdown of the matches, check here.
