Thanks for participating! Congrats to Lifesteal!

We've had duo brackets-a-plenty, but what about our favorite minecraft trios? | Run by Mod Skater and Mod Artie

[mcyt-trios]

Welcome to the MCYTblr trios bracket!

Make sure to click/tap on the image to see the text in full!

This is the ultimate bracket to decide which trio across all of MCYT is the best!

The purple polls are all the ones that will be in the first round, after that the winner will go on to compete in the blue round against one of the top 16 most-submitted trios! Then the bracket really kicks off and we follow the rainbow down, following the pink guiding lines to say who is competing against who next. Until we finally reach the final, red bracket, the final round for the ultimate victor of trios! Its anyone's game and we wholly encourage propaganda, making alliances, and voter fraud!

With that said, the winner is 3 Heart Trio! Thank you everyone for voting!

PROPAGANDA:

3 Heart Trio:

theyre soo silly theyre just silly little guys who do things like mining an entire chunk in the center of the server's spawn for their own entertainment and to annoy everyone else

They are PATHETIC. They are ANNOYING. They are PERFECT. They are playing on three hearts and they die so much. They have a specialized raid platform that is NOT a raid farm. They are a team against exploits! Their base has 3 hearts above it representing them

these guys decided to put love and fun above all on the killing-lying server. while watching other teams betray and fall apart they have stuck with each other till the very last day of the server and never doubted one another. they worked like a clockwork, they knew they could only rely on themselves and at the end of the day, they didnt mind that it was that way

these guys got the short end of the stick time and time again throughout all of lifesteal s4, they were the targets of so many traps and attacks for no reason other than they were weak and always around. and despite it all they never wanted revenge and never held grudges! they cared about fun and friendship more than anything else, and while all the other teams ended up falling apart or betraying each other, these three stuck together from start to end. they didn't care about how many hearts they had, how much gear they had, or how powerful they were, because in the end all they needed was each other <3 i miss them so bad btw

Eclipse Federation:

i dont like them. they ruined my life. Subz and Vitalasy had already partnered in previous seasons but this one, Vitalasy ended up leaving for a few months, leaving Subz alone, and Zam ended up getting close to him after immense trauma at the hands of his former teammates. Zam has done SO many wrongs, including to Subz himself and Subz STILL took him in and made him join Eclipse Federation after Zam died 14 times in a row and got banned then revived by the same player who's been killing him all this time. And it could've been perfect but no, Zam had betrayed his previous team due to them using dupes via exploits, and now Eclipse Federation ALSO has exploits! And he decided that yeah his morals were more important than being loved! And so he murders Vitalasy when he's at his most vulnerable point, lets everyone gaslight him into thinking Vitalasy is an irredeemable evil monster who will never change, even as Vitalasy SAID he was ready to change before the betrayal even happened, Eclipse threw out their whole revenge plans because of Zam's positive influence and he just broke everything. Subz couldn't be with Zam but also couldn't see himself at Vitalasy's side, leaving him alone. Vitalasy hated Zam and yet never killed him or hunted him down, despite Zam acting like he did. And when Vitalasy left, banning himself off from the server, Zam had some time alone to think and realized he fucked up SOOOO bad. And Subz revived Vitalasy and told him to kill him. And ban him. His last wish. His Deliverance. And to make up with Zam. And Vitalasy tried, and they kind of did make up over Subz's death, but then Zam was like "actually im going to kill everyone and destroy the server now. because i want subz back and also because i always do extremely drastic things when i don't need to because i have unchecked mental illnesses i refuse to get help for". And surprisingly when Subz came back he didn't like that! And they ended in tragedy! Eclipse is fucked up. It's a trio that's always about the absence of one person, it's a team that could only happen in one timeline and it was doomed from the very start. But the love was there. It made everything worse, truthfully. But it was there. And that matters. Also as a fun fact Zam himself on twitter has referred to eclipse as a throuple, which is not canon but that's pretty funny. he also stated on stream he didn't want to get therapy because it'd ruin his lifesteal character. and there was a saga where they would "marry" (challenge lost kinda shenanigans) and zam was the only one happy about it. he's not normal. there's something wrong with him. love that for him though sorry for the block of text. I really dislike them. They're my beloveds :3

[mcyt-trios]

I'm really surprised that lifesteal smp are the finalists. I was sure that it'd be hermitcraft. Congrats lifestealers(?)! Idk what exactly's going on in your smp but I'm sure you're all over the moon you're blorbos are winning and I'm going to go check out lifesteal to see what all the hype is

Yes anon, join me in my (Mod skater's) lifesteal quest. Surely if your blorbos are this good to prompt THIS MUCH voter fraud the series must be worth watching!

And i can say for both of the mods we are also surprised that its a lifesteal finale!

Finals

The final round of voting will be up TOMORROW (Monday) at 12pm PST / 3pm EST. Reminder to all non-Americans out there that America has just had daylight savings and rolled back its clock an hour, so those times might come earlier than expected for you guys!

With that said, let the voter fraud begin!

[mcyt-trios]

..a lifesteal final?

A LIFESTEAL FINAL! WE MADE IT TO A FINAL THIS IS AWESOME :D

(thank to all the trios the Lifesteal groups went against for fighting hard against us, it was a fun fight and I wish you and your trios the best <3)

Lifesteal finale!! Congrats on all the voter fraud! You guys were so determined! Best of luck to both trios!

[mcyt-trios]

LIFESTEAL FINALS LETS FUCKING GO!!!! GG everyone, i had friends fighting for familoier and you all put up a great fight <3 also i may have been banned by tumblr for making new accounts. anyway mod skater expect a short bench trio fic soon o7

Wow, we was not expecting the Lifesteal finale! Mod Skater is not looking forward to the hours of content they now have to watch, but is looking forward to the LORE (and to the fic 🥺).

I'm excited to see how far the voter fraud escalates for this Lifesteal finale!

[mcyt-trios]

i'm curious -- were there any new trios/characters/series the mods learned about from this tournament that particularly interested them? any favorite bits of propaganda? Funniest Quote About A Trio?

Mod Skater, of course, has vowed to watch Lifesteal s4 if one of its trios win, and we've gotten to see the impressive dedication of Lifesteal fans. I think what impressed me (mod Artie) was that the fans of the lesser-known SMPs had full-on 10 paragraph essays locked and loaded, ready to throw at us about their special little guys. Seriously. Essays in the google form. I am nothing if not impressed!!

I'm also just happy in general about the diversity in SMPs we had at the start of the bracket, and I'm so glad we got to include so many!

[mcyt-trios]

Mod Skater here! There were a lot more Old MCYT's submitted than i thought there would be! Including dynamics from older hermitcraft seasons. Its so fun seeing the oldies come out! I'm also very happy for the diversity in the bracket, and i'm very proud of the lifesteal fans voter frauding their way to victory.

Honestly Soup Group and Familoier gotta put up a stronger voter fraud game! Lifesteal finale will be very unexpected if that happens.

i know i've said this a few times but i just want to say another thank you to the mods for running this poll. super cool and i've had so much fun <333 do you guys have any favorite characters from the dsmp? i've been offering bribes to ppl voting but i also was thinking of just making y'all a gift for the effort and the experience. unfortunately i don't know qsmp/hermitcraft/traffic life/etc as well and can't promise anything there, and idk how much you're trying to remain impartial/not talk about your favorites, but i thought i'd offer just in case! ty again <3333

Thank you so much for the support!!! And that's very sweet, we'd appreciate that a lot :') Mod Artie is a huge fan of Eret and Foolish (we're both big Eret fans) but Mod Skater is the certified Bench Trio lover!

3 Heart Trio:

theyre soo silly theyre just silly little guys who do things like mining an entire chunk in the center of the server's spawn for their own entertainment and to annoy everyone else

They are PATHETIC. They are ANNOYING. They are PERFECT. They are playing on three hearts and they die so much. They have a specialized raid platform that is NOT a raid farm. They are a team against exploits! Their base has 3 hearts above it representing them

these guys decided to put love and fun above all on the killing-lying server. while watching other teams betray and fall apart they have stuck with each other till the very last day of the server and never doubted one another. they worked like a clockwork, they knew they could only rely on themselves and at the end of the day, they didnt mind that it was that way

Soup Group:

I love them sm. They go raid a woodland mansion together with stone tools on day 1. They go end-busting with only soup a few days later. They all based practically on top of each other and send messages under the river (or through the ceiling/basement in Gem and Impulse's case). Pearl and Impulse got mad at the king so the three of them started a revolution. Every single meetup involves them drinking suspicious stew that more often than not causes someone to go blind. They share a nether tunnel. Gem got bored and they all had wooden sword fights. They put their faces all over each other's bases. Gem still uses the "Behind You Gem! 2.0" sword that Impulse made her at the beginning of the season. There's so many inside jokes between them. Please, they mean so so so much to me <3

They're neighbours. They're going on soup adventures. They're watching each other die in comedic ways. They're slaying each other with wooden swords. They're teasing each other. They have an elaborate messaging system they never use. Pearl keeps making them blindness soup and then the others complain that she's blinded them again and then they'll do it all again next week. They're silly and goofy and so much fun. I love them.

[staringamassivemistakeintheface]

Vote Soup Group for two reasons!

1) very silly dynamics. They’re friends, they’re murder pals, it’s a dad and his two daughters without it actually being found family. They’re goofy, and I love them.

2) Don’t make the Lifesteal fandom fight against itself. They’ve done well in this tournament, and I respect their efforts. But why make their efforts culminate in a battle where only one figurehead of their series can emerge victorious? Let’s give the Lifesteal people a common enemy!

I CANT SPEND THE NEXT HOUR TYPING

THE TRIO OF ALL TIME TRULY- ALL 3 OF THEM LOVE AND CARE ABOUT EACH OTHER SO MUCH- LIKE ROIER AND CELLBIT ARE MARREID YEAH BUT THEY STILL CONSIDER JAIDEN PART OF THEIR FAMILY SHE IS IMPORTANT TO THEM AND THEY ARE IMPORTANT TO HER- ROIER AND JAIDEN WILL ALWAYS BE PARTNERS NO MATTER WHAT

theee relationship of all time: roier is husbands with cellbit and jaiden is his qpp, they are all so caring for each other and they have had their tension and their bad moments but there's a genuine want to communicate and grow better all the time :( <3

Cellbit and Roier are romantic married, Roier and Jaiden were platonic partners raising a child together, and all 3 are chaos together! But get along so so well! They support each other so much and care about each other so deeply and they are all Sillies

this is jaiden, and this is jaiden's partner/ the father of her child roier, and this is roier's cannibal husband cellbit

I hope this doesn't come off as mean, but please don't send the mods angry asks about the outcomes of the polls! We won't reply to them and it's not very productive because we literally can't control how the polls turn out, we just make the posts. It's totally understandable to express your frustration, but doing it in our inbox won't help anybody, lol.
