A Detailed Voting Strategy

in General Discussion
So I ran a mock poll for the mock 24 hours yesterday. 240 people voted. The votes broke down like this


Obviously, colossus is in first by a mile, with groot and iron patriot bringing up 2nd and 3rd. This is where the strategy comes in. Obviously, Kamala Khan, venompool, old man Logan, and Howard the duck aren’t going to win. So to those voters, I say, choose one of the top three candidates if you want your vote to matter. If you’re fine with not being a decisive vote and are voting to prove a point, this doesn’t matter to you.

However, for a competitive, non-landslide election, people will have to realize that their candidate won’t win and choose one of the top 3.

Again, this is just a tip to make your vote matter.

Cheers!

    You make it sound like any other champion than colossus has even any chance

    Or...have some conviction and vote for what you want. All those options combined and they still don't beat Colossus.

    If the combined votes NOT voting for colossus vote for one champion, it would be close at least. That’s the point of voting for someone with “a chance”

    Again, you don’t need to do this, it’s just something you can do to make things interesting.

    You can always vote 3rd party in an election. You’re just accepting that your vote doesn’t matter to the real decision.

    Edit: I get the felling this is going to be controversial. Please don’t throw the thread off topic 😊

    There is more that matters than "contributing to final decision", like letting Kabam know who is 2nd most desireable champion to be buffed out of these

    That’s true. But Howard the Duck and kamala garnered only 4% of the vote and are most likely not being considered now, even considering 2nd and 3rd place finishes

    They shoud all be revamped... seriously

    Colossus needs it most out of this list he has no type of beneficial buffs at all.

    Obviously he doesn't want Colossus as his choice and he is using his poll to garner votes for other choices.

    "Do to make things interesting"? Who cares if it is interesting or not for the final outcome?

    Lol sure.

    This is more of a PSA. If you don’t want your vote to be obsolete, don’t vote for kamala, oml, Howard, or venompool.

    He was never good to begin with
    That's why he's getting a buff
  • DshuDshu Member Posts: 1,507 ★★★★
    Or maybe there are more than 240 people who will vote in the real poll that skipped you fake poll

    Getting the chair vote will be criticial in this election, looks like Colossus has a good amount of chairs on his side we'll see if he can persuade more to join him.
    But also do remember that we can't always trust the polls, as we've seen in recent history lol

    I love democracy

    Counter strategy: review the current poll BEFORE voting and vote for the one with the lowest total. That way every champ ties. With no single winner, Kabam would have to update all of them...

    Miike is the Tie-Breaker.
