start dropping suggestions for future topics, put them in spoilers though so we don't get people thinking too early, this is supposed to be kneejerk reactions.

these topics do not close when they are done so if you want to go argue over the results feel free to bump old topics and increase my brand recognition: https://bit.ly/YFTB8

Previous results:
1) Strongest non-Noble Niner: Zelda (Tifa, Squall, Bowser)

This, but I thought of Splatoon first for some reason. GSC being second seems about as obvious, for what it's worth.

Probably referred to games he thought of and not stronger games.
