Legion March Madness: Who's in the Sweet 16?
After 6 days of voting, here's where we stand in the Sweet 16 (click to embiggen and read clearly):
It's the 65th Anniversary #MarchMadness Legion Tournament! Voting is open for only 24 hours. This is Poll #47.1, a runoff between #3 Ultra Boy and #6 Wildfire to advance to the #Sweet16, as the original ended in a tie.https://t.co/pC7JI23oSb

- Biggest upsets (based on a high rank vs low rank): #10 XS over #2 Mordru, and #10 Cosmic Boy over #2 Computo, both in the 2nd round
- Biggest blowout: Brainiac 5 by 58-0 over Eltro Gand in the 2nd round
- Biggest non-surprises: all four #1 seeds are in the Sweet 16
- Cinderella story: I'm going to go with #10 XS, who beat #7 Shikari and #2 Mordru to get to the Sweet 16. For the other #10 still in it, #10 Cosmic Boy got in as a wildcard 2nd chance (he came in 3rd in the 1958 round behind Saturn Girl and Lightning Lad, but he had enough votes to make it into the wildcard round), and I don't think it was too big a stretch for a founder to beat out #7 Lyrissa Mallor or even #2 Computo.
My predictions for the Sweet 16:
- New Earth bracket: #1 Timber Wolf over #5 Kono, #10 XS over #3 Tyroc, and #1 Timber Wolf over XS to get to the Final Four
- Aleph bracket: #1 Princess Projectra over #5 Gates, #2 Brainiac 5 over #3 Ultra Boy/#6 Wildfire, #2 Brainy over Jeckie to get to the Final Four
- Amazon Galaxy bracket: #1 Element Lad over #5 Blok, #10 Cosmic Boy over #3 Gigi Cusimano, #1 Element Lad over Cos to get to the Final Four
- Planet Gotham bracket: #1 Chameleon Boy over #4 Kid Quantum II, #2 Saturn Girl over #6 Dawnstar, #2 Saturn Girl over Cham to get to the Final Four
- #1 Timber Wolf over #1 Element Lad
- #2 Saturn Girl over #2 Brainiac 5
- #2 Timber Wolf over #2 Saturn Girl
