**003: Erdrick**

The hero draws near! Hailing from the land of Aliahan, Roto, also known by the legendary title of Erdrick, is the legendary hero other heroes around the world strive to be. Destined to take down the sinister Baramos and restore peace to the world, Erdrick can’t do it alone and teams up with mages, warriors, martial artists, priests, and more in order to complete his quest. Erdrick as a title was later passed down to future generations of heroes, becoming something only a select few legends can use.

Across time and space, Erdrick could feel that something was off - as such, he immediately went off to find some peace. By chance, he ended up in the Great Lilac...him and a lone Slime, that is. While he knows he can rest easy in the Great Lilac, he can’t shake the feeling that another hero has fallen somewhere far away. Perhaps he’ll get his closure another day...

Characters - Everyone

On December 11th, 2020, I released Back in the Spotlight and officially began Exhibition Gallery. Since then, we've revealed sixteen characters, seven bonuses (including one basically Discord-only-at-the-moment character), did a four-man pre-bracket, and have done five matches of our inaugural round of bracket. And from the bottom of my heart, if you worked on Exhibition Gallery, if you made a track, art, or even if you just voted, thank you.

There are a few that without Exhibition Gallery would be nowhere near where it is today- there's GameGenius, who made [S] Weep and did a lot of quality control, there's PineWSun, the VA for Sonny (and now Comedy, Tragedy, and Satyr though that's sort of besides the point) as well as someone who's made a bunch of tracks, there's San_KA who's helped perfect the tournament's UI, and I want everyone to know and respect what they've done for me and this tournament.

Exhibition Gallery has allowed me to pull out characters and niches that people wouldn't consider as much, it's unquestionably the "EnderEmerald Tournament" as others have stated to its compliment, and I wouldn't trade it or anything within it for the world.

Beyond the reveal of Comedy & Tragedy, I'll pass on a few other notes that Discord folk got:
-There are now two official tier lists, for the characters themselves as well as individual sources ala Megamix:
https://tiermaker.com/create/official-exhibition-gallery-tier-list-maker-398511
https://tiermaker.com/create/official-exhibition-gallery-sources-tier-list-maker-398511
-If everything goes well, the entirety of Winners' Round 1 will be fully completed and released by the end of January.

So again, thank you for one year of letting me entertain you. May the rest of the time we have be just as wonderful.

Lady Gaga - Poker Face (BARONE Remix)

Still Got Fight in My Fingertips Today

A dark reinterpretation of the track, transformed into
a very slowed phonk ritual fused with aggressive metalcore guitars
and a deep cinematic atmosphere.

Distorted 808 slides vibrate under gritty cowbells,
while the breakdown hits with a crushing wall of metal.

It’s slow, heavy, hypnotic —
a descent into love, danger and underground tension.

💀 Mak3MyVision Universe — loyalty in the shadows, rhythm in the dark.

🎧 Turn up the bass. Contigo sí.
