Fightingdome: Shut Up and Play the Hits

[Johnny Unusual]

With our 72 fighters assembled, we are ready for a battle! You’ve given me your entries for fighting game music and you did not disappoint. In fact, we got so many, we are going to start with a prelim battle. I worked out a tournament bracket but I might change it in the case I overlooked a match up in the prelim or first round where one player has their two choices in the same match.

The rules are simple as a jump kick: vote for the song you prefer, most votes win. Don’t feel compelled to vote for yours if you like another one better. Just follow your bliss! Each match up should get a little more than 24 hours (more if I can’t get to it on time). If you contributed, I hope you take part, because the more the merrier! Thanks for taking part!

Prelims

Match 1​

First, @Aurelia is making sure her King of Fighters XIV are Survivors Under The Sky while @Exposition Owl claws his way to the top with a cover of Vega’s Theme by TheOneUps and the Mariachi Entertainment System.

Match 2​

@RT-55J must be still making a decision because his entry is VS Fighting Placeholder Team by SilvaGunner but at least he nominated something because @Issun selected absolutely Noh Stage from Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Tournament Fighters.

 

[Johnny Unusual]

Mariachi Turtles (Mikey, no!)

 

[Purple]

I should have made a second post mentioning this, but yesterday I swapped my Writhe in Pain nom with a different GG track:
Guilty Gear XX - "Still in the Dark (Zato-1 vs Millia)"

If it's too late to switch it out, nbd because they're both faves of mine (yes I'm a Millia player).

 

[Kirin]

I like the KoF track, but the combo lineup of MES+1Ups is pure fire.

Vega’s Place

 

[Aurelia]

Placeholder Team Under the Sky

 

[Issun]

Not sure so I'll Aska Vega.

 

[Torzelbaum]

VegaS

 

[RT-55J]

Survivors Under the Placeholder

 

[Johnny Unusual]

Vega climbs the fence to victory! The Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles are winners in a halfshell (turtle power!)

Match 3​

@Peklo goes on the Assault with Zero Divide while @Kirin enjoys an Opening Movie from Tekken Tag Tournament.

Match 4​

@spines is a real Joker with her pick from King of Fighters XI while @Vaeran screams “Look At Me” from Kaiser Knuckle.

 

[Johnny Unusual]

Assault at Me

 

[Peklo]

Match 5​

@Aurelia is living a Fairytale Transparently from Melty Blood Actress Again Current Code and @Purple reaches the Pinnacle from Killer Instinct.

Match 6​

@Vaeran wants to have a pure time with Zeta Gundam from Gundam Battle Assault while @Regulus wants an Ephemeral Dream (Setsuka)

 

[Johnny Unusual]

 

[Purple]

Robots

 

[Exposition Owl]

Pinnacle Zeta

 

[Peklo]

"Fairy Tale transparently" and "Ephemeral Dream". Listened to most Melty Blood tracks while thinking of my nominations, and this was definitely a contender.

 

[Kirin]

Hmm, tough. I wanna vote Ephemeral Zeta but that’s not how this bracket works, so I think I’ll just abstain this round.
