Muriel became famous in [[Ms. /co/ 2019]] for being the tournament's #128 seed, pitting her against the [[FOTM]] favorite [[Spinel]] on the first round. She gained substantial presence on that round's threads as anons rallied behind the elderly woman in order to take down the top-seeded gem as soon as possible, citing her personality traits as reasons for why they should vote for her. However, the effort ultimately failed as she was defeated by 109 votes. Muriel was similarly eliminated in round 1 on the [[Ms. /co/ 2020|2020 contest]], where she fell to [[Lola Bunny]] by 6 votes.
Muriel's fortunes suddenly turned for the better in the [[Ms. /co/ 2021|2021 contest]] as she became a "silent favorite" following her 6th seeded result in the qualifiers. She then cruised into the [[Elite Eight]] as none of her opponents posed a serious threat. Despite her likability, Muriel's deep bracket run was considered underwhelming by some anons, claiming that she was mostly supported by "pity votes" due to the death of her voice actress [[Wikipedia:Thea White|Thea White]] <abbr title="July 30, 2021">just over one month</abbr> before the contest. This also caused some comparisons to the last two champions who won because of recent events ([[Spinel]]'s movie and [[Mrs. Monarch]]'s show cancellation). In the end, Muriel was eliminated in the quarter-finals by old animation icon [[Betty Boop]], and subsequently
Muriel's performance in 2021 meant that all three main characters of ''Courage the Cowardly Dog'' have attained [[Elite Eight]] status, a rare feat for an animated series. Because of this, she is temporarily suspended in [[Ms. /co/ 2022|2022]], and will return on her next eligible edition on [[Ms. /co/ 2023]].
