New Super Nintenbros. Deluxe: Overall Predicted Popularity Rating of 7/10, Good characters with good sources and good remixes, just most definitely probably won't win. (Retroactively increasing OtH to 7 and Geno to 8, Al is now a 6)

Good: Very large and diverse sourcepoll and that's nearly inexaustable. Very good arrangeemnt potential, especially with series like Xenoblade, Animal Crossing, Zelda, Mario and Mother 3.

Bad: Very VERY tired sources that are very nice to listen to, just boring, overused (you can find like any old YouTuber musician making Mario.Zelda/Mother 3/Xenoblade/Animal Crossing remixes) both on SiIva and in general.

Toxic: "Why the fuck is Doug Bowser in fucking drag?" disliked for being weird. (although I'm suprised Thanos didn't get more dislikes with his nips out and that bulge in Mickey's pants, both are kind of 'eye bleach needed' characters) Aside from that pretty much the same complaints covered in the Bad section, bland, tired, overused sources with bland, tired, overused buffs.

Wild West Smiths: Overall Predicted Popularuity Rating if 4/10, they have very good and powerful sources, but a controversial team-up decision, normie sources and very controversial source hold them back too much, they are definitely loosing, even if they make it far somehow.

Good: Very large sourcepoool buffs by the 2010s rap, country, western and steampunk sources. Conspiracy theories can give a lot of funny mixes. Stil jazzy and a decent contender. Have a lot of breakout hits under their wings of steam like Country Roads, Big Iron, Red Dead Redemption, Drake, modern Kanye and of course Will himself.

Bad: 2010s rap is an EXTREMELY normie source, same goes for country music. Steampunk and conspiracy theories are niche sources, and there's literally no way to include the conspiracy theories sources without being controversial as covered in the Toxicity section, about the only thing that isn;t is the Illuminati which is just a meme. 2010s rap is also a very controversial source due to all the newer rappers and how shit their music is these days. (as a general opinion)

Toxic: People complaining about Will's team-up, how it doesn't make sense for him, how it focuses more on Jaden than him, endless complaints. Then there's 2010s rap which is already complained about ENOUGH, about how it's gone downhill, is talentless, is pretty shit, etc. etc. etc. just not many people's thing and widely disliked. And again MANY of the conspiracy theory sources are extremely controversial due to their general nature like chemtrails, antivaxers or especially Alex Jones, who is an admittedly entertaining, but also highly controversial guy.

ZUN: Overall Predicted Popularity Ranking is 7/10, he was already a pretty decent but just lukewarm character and the rockin sidescroller remixes will definitely increase that, but he's pretty much for the most part going to by carried 80% by the Touhou fandom and disliked for the same reason. Will make it far, but will definitely loose to a stronger competitor.

Good: Touhou pretty much has literally endless amounts of good remix potential, and many many scrolling shooters have geniunely rockin soundtracks PERFECT for catapulting him about in the tornament, literally no source he has is bad, aside from the alcohol which is merely an overlooked source.

Bad: On the other hand you either love Touhou music, or are meh about it. ZUN literally had the absolute MOST single rips in KfAD2, only being beaten by the indispensiblity of The Jazz Cats' jazz fusion rips. Thus people are kinda sick of Touhou by now unless they're a fan, in which case they're rejoicing the fuck out. All of his sources are extremely niche that you either love or just don't know about or follow. The alcohol source doesn't stand a chance against the frankly massive amount of other arrangements he can get, both Touhou and non-Touhou.

Toxic: Touhou's music has a repetitive sound to it and gets old after a while, many people will think he's just mainly focus on Touhou again. All of his sources are niche and not very powerful if people don't do research or care enough about them. Many many casual SiIvaGunner and KfaD fans just don't like Touhou and have even often put it into the 'weeb shit' category on SiIva rip comment sections, clearly showing their disdain.

Dancing Alien Team: Overall Popularity Rating is 3/10 Have actually good sources but are just too damn infested with overused or cringe sources, and are a literal magnet for dislike bombs, trolls and angry people much like Wolfy or Scourge Sisters, hopefully they'll get more than like 3-4 remixes this time though with their new sources. :/ Will barely get anywhere before getting curbstomped into oblivion, I predict.

Good: Have the technically biggest single sourcepool of the entire tournament along with Gloria's Scottish rips in the alien rips, literally giving them access to every single form of media possible. Cumbia and reggaeton are also pretty groovy genres, Vines are beloved and many TikTok songs are actually good if distanced from association with the platform.

Bad: Their aline source is on the other hand TOO generic like HOBaRT's food rips, all the individual artists hwo made their origination songs are sources we're pretty tired of hearing by now, trap is another 'talentless' genre, even more so by the lazy remixes with a trap beat, and backing tracks. Then there's the Vine, Music.lly and TikTok sources pretty much immediately dragging them down by their entire cringe-filled inclusion even IF they do give good musical soruces.

Toxic: Literally all of them are extremely dead memes from two years ago, we're all fucking tired of money longer, antonio rios and unfuny cosita, costia is cringe, tiktok is cringe, vine is cringe, reggaeton and cumbia are very niche sources not really everyone likes that suffer from the same racism issues as Revengers, and trpa is for the most part universally disliked among those with a brain.

Thanos: Overall Predicted Popularity Rating is 6/10, Very good sources, but nothing spectular that hasn't already been done a dime a dozen. Still a fan favorite character who should get decently far, and the Blue Sky, Simpsons and Disney Park sources are enough to make him stand out from 'generic disney properties' remixes.

Good: Extremely large sourcepoll of classic nostalgia-inducing tunes, you've all seen what that parade arrangement did to Sakura. Good memories of Didny Worl for everyone. Extremely large sourcepool of good sources verging on the overpowered. The Blue Sky, Owl City and Simpsons sources also give room for more obscure and 'non-normie' remixes along with the Disney Parks stuff.

Bad: A very large sourcepool of good but extremely normie sources we've probably heard a million times in ads or from kiddo toys or DVDs. Very minor buffs inbetween KfAD-KfaND entirely overshadowed by his main sourcelist from King for Another Day.

Toxic: If little kids are attached to it, it's probably something literally everyone is extremely tired of by now. Aside from the overremixes normie Disney sources, there's Marvel which doesn't gives many nont 'generic orchestra' sources, and everything else from Disney, Marvel, Star Wars and Pixar has been remixed to DEATH across YouTube. It's like the most entry-level shit for a Synthesia, piano arrangement or YouTube musician channel.
