Elite Eight (Mr. and Ms. /co/)
In the Mr. and Ms. /co/ tournaments, the Elite Eight refers to the final eight characters left in a given contest, and thus, represent the quarter-final stage. Since most /co/ tournaments employ a 128-man single elimination bracket, the Elite Eight usually corresponds to Round 5. In this stage, all losers of the quarter-finals will play a separate four-man voting round afterwards in order to rank them from 5th to 8th. Likewise, the semi-final losers will also play each other to decide 3rd and 4th place.
Reaching the Elite Eight is generally seen as a mark of strength, and is also treated as a sort of an "exclusive club" because relatively few contestants are able to reach that stage; and membership is permanent.
To keep the competition fresh, two rules have been implemented from 2019 onwards:
- Elite Eight Rule: Every time a character advances into the quarter-finals, they will be temporarily banned from participating in the next Mr. and Ms. /co/ tournament. After this period, they may be nominated in subsequent contests (until they manage to get into the elite 8 again).
- Jenny Rule: All champions of Mr. and Ms. /co/ntests, dubbed the /co/lympian Pantheon and Waifuhalla respectively, are permanently retired and will be barred from entering in future editions.
The Elite Eight Rule has since been implemented into similar character tournaments in /v/ and /mlp/. However, the rule has been criticized by some users, with the primary argument being that some contenders may exploit this rule by deliberately losing in the last 16, in order to give themselves a better chance to win next year due to "weaker" competition.
