'''Battler Ushiromiya''' is the main protagonist of '''''Umineko ni Naku Koro ni''''' (literally "When the Seagulls Cry"), a murder mystery visual novel created by Ryukishi07.
Line 19 ⟶ 18:
An (in)famous character with an established place in /v/ board culture, Battler is best known for being the mascot of ''The Final Rumble'', a wrestling show about some guy on Twitch who streams a modded WWE game where various anime, cartoon, and vidya characters punch each other. The wiki's front page states that the site is "created by /v/irgins". In ''TFR'', Battler is commonly associated with [[Agent 47]] from ''Hitman'', serving as one of his biggest rivals.
Since [[King of /v/]] is a knockout tournament, Battler naturally took his talents there and became a popular competitor since some of ''TFR's'' fanbase also visits the contest threads. However, he also carried his "jobber" reputation to the event, making him prone to losing in the first round despite being seeded decently high most of the time. This was shown immediately in the inaugural [[King of /v/ 2019]], where he lost to [[Gene (God Hand)|Gene]] in the first round. Battler did reach the second round in [[King of /v/ 2020|2020]], but that required beating the shit out of his grandpa [[Kinzo Ushiromiya|Kinzo]], and he was promptly shot dead by ''Left 4 Dead'' old man [[Bill (L4D)|Bill]] afterwards.
In [[King of /v/ 2021|2021]] Battler faced hentai protagonist [[Rance]] in round 1, which gained infamy when a user applied the "sacred ointment" to a printed picture of him, leading to yet another shameful defeat. Inspired by Battler's performance, the tributes returned with a vengeance several days later when multiple anons decided to "anoint" the [[The Batter|two]] [[Dr. Eggman|finalists]] with their own "ointments" as well.
Battler's best main tournament performance so far has been in [[King of /v/ 2022]], where his hype carried him through the first round against GTA's [[Niko Bellic]], as well as round two in a matchup against the similarly hyped up [[Spamton]]. Just when it seemed like Battler might break his jobber status, however, he fell short of the 40 homeruns required to defeat elder god of baseball [[Christopher Robin]], losing by 9 votes in an intense matchup that saw back and forth OC from both sides.
[[King of /v/ 2023]] was another eventful year for Battler. Before the tournament began some speculated about whether or not Battler would get spitevoted out early due to some blaming his supporters for voting for the Loser's Bracket after his infamous loss to Christopher Robin the year prior, resulting in the widely loathed Losers Finals and Grand Finals shitshow of [[Queen of /v/ 2023|Queen 2023]]. In addition, several Battlerbros were revealed to have been banned by the jannies days along countless spambots who were replying to the same "dat bbc" post as part of a sharty raid, causing Battler supporters to unflatteringly be labelled as BBC lovers.
Nevertheless Battler was able to easily defeat [[The Hunter]], where he would then meet his next opponent [[Miles Edgeworth]]. For this match Battlerfags banded together to lead a raid on Club Penguin where they would shout out support for their pick and eventually manage to tip the iceberg, but ultimately Battler would notoriously end up jobbing by <span style=" color:#228b22;">>1 fucking vote</span> (technically two; edgeworth would have still won the tiebreaker due to higher seed) much to the delight of anti-battler posters.
But using the Loser's Bracket that he had become so heavily associated with, Battler was able to claw his way back into the spotlight. This involved his long awaited match against Agent 47, however said match ended up as something of a whiff with many declaring it as illegitimate due to the match itself taking place in the Loser's Bracket and in a 4-way. Nonetheless Battler would win the 4-way and go onto win matches until the Finals in one last 4-way struggle. Here he would become a controversial figure as Battler supporters became one of the key proponents in the vote for a grand finals match/crown steal, causing entire threads in the Finals to be consumed by shitflinging between Battler supporters pushing for his chance at the crown steal (and falseflaggers, who at some point anons couldn't tell the difference between) and those trying to prevent a repeat of Queen's Grand Finals. In the end the Grand Finals was voted against, however Battler's detractors were too divided among the other three candidates to be able to stop him, resulting in Battler claiming 9th place and fittingly becoming the King of Jobbers for the year.

Battler Ushiromiya is the main protagonist of Umineko ni Naku Koro ni (literally "When the Seagulls Cry"), a murder mystery visual novel created by Ryukishi07.
Tournament History[edit]
An (in)famous character with an established place in /v/ board culture, Battler is best known for being the mascot of The Final Rumble, a wrestling show about some guy on Twitch who streams a modded WWE game where various anime, cartoon, and vidya characters punch each other. The wiki's front page states that the site is "created by /v/irgins". In TFR, Battler is commonly associated with Agent 47 from Hitman, serving as one of his biggest rivals.
Since King of /v/ is a knockout tournament, Battler naturally took his talents there and became a popular competitor since some of TFR's fanbase also visits the contest threads. However, he also carried his "jobber" reputation to the event, making him prone to losing in the first round despite being seeded decently high most of the time. This was shown immediately in the inaugural King of /v/ 2019, where he lost to Gene in the first round. Battler did reach the second round in 2020, but that required beating the shit out of his grandpa Kinzo, and he was promptly shot dead by Left 4 Dead old man Bill afterwards.
In 2021 Battler faced hentai protagonist Rance in round 1, which gained infamy when a user applied the "sacred ointment" to a printed picture of him, leading to yet another shameful defeat. Inspired by Battler's performance, the tributes returned with a vengeance several days later when multiple anons decided to "anoint" the two finalists with their own "ointments" as well.
Battler's best main tournament performance so far has been in King of /v/ 2022, where his hype carried him through the first round against GTA's Niko Bellic, as well as round two in a matchup against the similarly hyped up Spamton. Just when it seemed like Battler might break his jobber status, however, he fell short of the 40 homeruns required to defeat elder god of baseball Christopher Robin, losing by 9 votes in an intense matchup that saw back and forth OC from both sides.
King of /v/ 2023 was another eventful year for Battler. Before the tournament began some speculated about whether or not Battler would get spitevoted out early due to some blaming his supporters for voting for the Loser's Bracket after his infamous loss to Christopher Robin the year prior, resulting in the widely loathed Losers Finals and Grand Finals shitshow of Queen 2023. In addition, several Battlerbros were revealed to have been banned by the jannies days along countless spambots who were replying to the same "dat bbc" post as part of a sharty raid, causing Battler supporters to unflatteringly be labelled as BBC lovers.
Nevertheless Battler was able to easily defeat The Hunter, where he would then meet his next opponent Miles Edgeworth. For this match Battlerfags banded together to lead a raid on Club Penguin where they would shout out support for their pick and eventually manage to tip the iceberg, but ultimately Battler would notoriously end up jobbing by >1 fucking vote (technically two; edgeworth would have still won the tiebreaker due to higher seed) much to the delight of anti-battler posters.
But using the Loser's Bracket that he had become so heavily associated with, Battler was able to claw his way back into the spotlight. This involved his long awaited match against Agent 47, however said match ended up as something of a whiff with many declaring it as illegitimate due to the match itself taking place in the Loser's Bracket and in a 4-way. Nonetheless Battler would win the 4-way and go onto win matches until the Finals in one last 4-way struggle. Here he would become a controversial figure as Battler supporters became one of the key proponents in the vote for a grand finals match/crown steal, causing entire threads in the Finals to be consumed by shitflinging between Battler supporters pushing for his chance at the crown steal (and falseflaggers, who at some point anons couldn't tell the difference between) and those trying to prevent a repeat of Queen's Grand Finals. In the end the Grand Finals was voted against, however Battler's detractors were too divided among the other three candidates to be able to stop him, resulting in Battler claiming 9th place and fittingly becoming the King of Jobbers for the year.
