User blog:MP999/MP999's Royal Rumble

So, THIS IS NOT A TOURNAMENT. It’s just another fun project for me to do this summer in my spare time. Not like I already don’t have a dozen, but meh. In One Piece, a recent arc featured a gladiatorial tournament of sorts, where a wide diverse cast of characters fought in a ring until only one man was left standing. I really liked it, because of the battle royale style of the match being a change of pace, and the colourful mosaic of different personalities and fighting styles. So, I figured why not write one?

I am looking for FIFTY (50) characters to fill up this roster. Now, before we get started, I am going to point this out. It isn’t a tournament format, but rather, 50 characters all fighting in a royale until only one is left standing. The eliminations will NOT be done by issue of votes like my tournament. Instead, I have developed an algorithm that I can use to sort characters in a unique order, free from bias towards any fictional platform, franchise, or power level. This order will determine the order the characters lose in the royale. And, to prevent me from just taking over since I’m the only person who knows the pattern, I will not be nominating any characters. After the fight is done, I will post the pattern I used and the proof behind the results. (And don’t worry, it’s nothing stupid like alphabetical order). The order does not necessarily mean that #49 knocks out #50, gets knocked out by #48, who in turn is defeated by #47. That’s just decided by whatever I find fitting.

Nomination rules:
 * No characters not allowed on the Death Battle Fanon Wiki (Celebrities, wiki users, ect.)
 * No complete joke characters. Characters like Dan Hibiki and the Electrocutioner are allowed. Joke characters, in this sense, means anything like Muppets, Big Rigs, Internet memes, Inanimate objects, or Characters with No Fighting Skills/Abilities. Be sensible and don’t try to test any limits here.
 * No Undertale. Seriously, the vast majority of characters just stand still while you play bullet hell to defeat them. Not much action to derive from there.
 * No Steven Universe. I have personal reasons for wanting to avoid the franchise.
 * No FnaF. See “Complete Jokes” above.

I may refuse entry to characters who are “too strong”. Under the algorithm I had, a Goomba ranks above Goku, which does not really make sense realistically. Thus, I want all the characters to be in a similar playing field. This will be a case by case basis, depending on if I can write them fighting the others without damaging their character integrity too much. Examples of characters allowed would be Chun-Li, Kid Goku, Darth Vader and Bowser. Examples of characters not allowed would be Doctor Manhattan, Unicron, Thanos, and Madoka.

Note: Please make sure your characters have a degree of melee combat; this is gladiatorial style, meaning that ranged weapons like guns and lasers are frowned upon.

You can nominate up to three characters each, and may possibly be allowed more depending on circumstances. You can nominate all three characters in one comment; please include their name, franchise, and a picture of each. Please keep in mind I can refuse characters; for example, if we have too many characters from one franchise, I may deny another character entry even if they meet all the previously met requirements.

Let’s see how well this experiment does.
