Like the X Armor Contest last year, here is a "Bring Back" Round. We will most likely have three of these, so if your entry is dropped, don't fret, you still have plenty of chances to come back in the competition! This way, if your entry was paired with an entry that you felt was far superior, even though yours was good, you have a good chance of coming back.

All 51 entries that have been knocked out are included (If I missed your entry, please tell me!), and each user can vote for one entry they wish to bring back into the competition. Each BB Round will last three days. Now...the list of entries. *cracks knuckles*

[Darkrider]

Slash Queen. 'Nuff said.

[Irgy]

Spectral Mare because it quite stands out and I still think there was something screwy going on in the last match it was in (Three members that haven't been active in months all signed in and voted for the same Maverick within minutes of each other shortly before the poll was closed, and none of said members have been active since).

[Kenkoru]

^^ That. All that and a side of pickles. Pretteh must win back! >:V

Oh, and why can't we pick two this round? It'd be much kewler.

[KEN BLAST]

But...can't they all win?

I have to say, Kafka The Bicentenial, he in my opinion has the most original theme. His name doesn't consist of animal+verb/adjective/element, so that alone gets props from me. I don't even know what the Hell he is and voted for him, because I need to know more about him.

Just because I can, I'll list the ones that are honorable mentions in my eyes.

Kommando Kiwi I thought was actually really interesting, if only for the fact he just doesn't look like your everyday Maverick, he doesn't even have arms.

Hagfish took balls to use such dark muddy colors, plus it's an animal I wasn't even aware of until I had seen it.

Bomble Bee is just overall well done.

Blade Beaver is a novel concept.

Polyslice Busacanis is just ridiculous in the best way.

The cream of the runner up crop are for me are:

5. Magnet Platypus: A great idea, I have nothing bad to say about him.
4.Cosmic Kraken: Spectacular design, but too similar to Squid Adler in my opinion.
3.Chimera Rage: We need more mythological themes/creatures in Mega Man games, Centaur Man, Splash Woman, and Tengu Man aren't enough.
2. Crush Asiatic Bear: Ice/snow mavericks are a dime a dozen, but the creator sold me on the design, it just somehow comes together perfectly.
1. Pistol Shrimp: He looks stunning without color. An overal memorable design that I enjoy much more than Crush Crawfish's and it gets bonus points for the dynamic pose.

[Locke]

My three picks were the Seismic Mole, Bomber Beaver and Cosmic Kraken. Of course, since I can only choose one, I went with the Cosmic Kraken. He Intrigues me.

[TuKéZu]

Cosmic Kraken for President!

[Mith]

I LOVE that hagfish! No, really. o_o I think it's a great design!

[Whitefang]

How is there even a debate? It's definitely Penguzoid, without a doubt.

Nah, but seriously I'll go with Kafka The Bicentenial. I LOVE his design.

[Sparkman-B10]

Hydro Hagfish for the heck yeah! That fella was beastly!

[Vman]

Out of all of these, I gonna have to go with Spectral Mare. Its design is just too stunning to not try and bring back.

[ultimate x lover]

I have to vote for Spectral Mare . Every time it was deserve a vote but it came with other good enteries .

[Metal X]

It was either Acid Flytrap or Seismic Mole for me in this round, and I chose the Mole. When I think of a final round, I think of the best of the best, and out of the two, Seismic Mole seemed more polished and more sharp. This is a crazy huge round. I don't know if there's gonna be any close ones, but so far Spectral Mare is doing very well. Good luck to everyone.

My "bring back vote" is for Cosmic Kraken

I agree, that is strange, and sounds like it wasn't just coincidence, but anyway, I vote for Seismic Mole

I wish i could vote for him as well.

Spectral Mare was fantastic though and didn't deserve to be knocked out. Therefore, my vote goes to the fair Mare.

I also hope that Hydro Hagfish makes it. He was immensely defeated before, but his design is wickedly good.

Thank you Mith!

My top three are Seismic Mole, Kafka the Bicentennial and Spectral Mare, I went with Kafka, such a cool design. There is something very mysterious about that maverick.

Voting for the first "Bring Back Round" is now over. Spectral Mare is the winner and will be re-entered into the competition!
