Nevertheless, AM immediately gained a presence in the contest threads; he received a good deal of fan art because of his relatively unusual, simple-to-draw appearance. The first round saw him defeat [[Alex (YIIK)|Alex]] from ''YIIK'', who was fittingly depicted in his panicked, hands-over-head pose. In the next round, AM subjected the #5 seed [[Baba (Baba is You)|Baba]] with overwhelmingly difficult and confusing word puzzles, causing Baba to surrender out of despair. AM then encountered ''Shin Megami Tensei'''s [[Demi-fiend]] in round 3, a demon who was once a human - and therefore a valid target of his misanthropism. The machine won by 40 votes and progressed to the sweet 16, facing off against [[King of /v/ 2019|2019]]'s bronze medalist [[Kazuma Kiryu]]. Unfortunately, last round's battle had left AM weakened, causing him to be finally shut down by the Yakuza Dragon as a result. AM's presence in fan arts persisted after his elimination, like his "HATE" speech being manifested in the visors of surviving characters, or appearing as the background of several duels. |

AM would make act of presence again [[King of /v/ 2022|the following year]], this time qualifying as the 17th seed, likely as a result of his successful campaign from the previous tournament. The randomized bracket pitted him against the infamous [[Dracula]], whom had been responsible of eliminating fellow schizo [[Grimm (Black Souls)|Grimm]] in 2021 - AM tortured the Count by repeteadly making him rewatch [[Alucard]]'s embarrassing sex scene from ''Castlevania''<nowiki/>'s Netflix adaptation. The second round had him defeat [[Gene (God Hand)|Gene]] from ''God Hand'' after successfully reprogramming the game's controls to be even more difficult. And while his next opponent for the third round, [[Captain Falcon]], had apparently proven to have the Silent Majority's favor by his side, he was ultimately unable to overcome the deadly infinite racetrack AM had prepared for him. |

Perhaps one of the most memorable moments of the tournament happened during AM's encounter with #2 seed [[Vergil]], when an anon offered a blood tribute in support of the god machine much to the shock and horror of many onlooking anons. The quarterfinals round would be an encounter against bio-terrorist [[Albert Wesker]]. With Wesker unable to genderbend AM through genetic modification due to being a machine, AM opted to use Wesker's own strategy against him by massproducing female "AMdroids" to bribe the voters with, giving him the upper hand in the match. In spite of his best efforts, however, the supercomputer's run would come to an end by succumbing to [[Jack Garland]]'s sheer ''CHAOS'' in the semi-finals. |
