| Boss | League of Shadows: Awesome instrumental soundtrack is awesome. Did I forget to mention the sheet music, thematic descriptions, and the awesome instrumental soundtrack? ^^ | Abyss Brawlers: Generally not a fan of lyrics/singing. The guitar reminds me of the original Elements theme though(however vaguely), so kudos for that. Also, objectively I guess the singing isn't so bad.
TC also had a very respectable submission, but it felt a little disjointed/didn't flow as a cohesive whole, though individual elements of it were certainly excellent. With different instrumentation choices that felt more similar to each other, it would definitely deserve the vote. |
| Artist | League of Shadows: Khaleesi has outdone herself again with the Chaotic Quantum Imbalance. Duelling dragons crushing a poor horned frog, scurrying devourers and otyughs, falling wyrms and pegasi, vultures looming in the distance-- an excellent depiction of iconic elements creatures! | The Chaosomes: Loving the use of the elements symbols, well done! I'd have preferred it if they didn't repeat quite so often in the same pattern, but still, very well done! FHM, I also really liked yours, but the quality of the image detracts from the submission, again :/ |
| CD | League of Shadows: This sly desert fox may not be powerful, but his precognitive abilities stand in a league of their own! This card introduces a new synergy and a sweet implementation of the classic precog mechanic. Well done. | Gaia's Pride: Lots of good submissions this round! Very hard to choose! In the end I went with this because it seems like a really fun mechanic, even though I think this + EQ is a tad bit OP, hehe. |
| DB | League of Shadows: Shards smash some Gods silly. Shards stronk. Says in Strong Shard Smashing Song. See? Sick Shards. Stupid Gods. Split up Shards? Sad. Should sing simultaneously. Not Sorry. Strong! | A Toadally Newtral Team: A very strong unupped deck! MonoDark is classic. |
| FE | Abyss Brawlers: Love the humor and how it probably would've won against the AI4! Excellent job. | The Chaosomes: Very very very difficult choice here. Really. But as much as I love LoS' submission, this one is better. Sadly. Well done by TC! Good flow, jokes were nice. Who doesn't like to see shard golems beat up bronze? This submission is actually pretty similar to what we were planning on doing if we'd managed to get camstudio to work, heh. |
| Writer | League of Shadows: I felt this remained truest to the DEATH BATTLE theme, while also providing a nice elements spin to it; after all, analyzing two decks is something we actually see quite often, just not in this format! Also, pretty formatting. ^^ The rough edges from not-quite finishing in time hurt it a little, but not significantly enough to detract from the vote. | Abyss Brawlers: GM Battle Hype! |
