ANNUAL PUNCH-UP: 2020 RANKINGS RECAP
Every battle featured on Secret Wars on Infinite Earths contributes to
the on-going Fight Club Rankings! Characters move up and down relative
to other ranks based on every win, loss, and draw we've recorded.A demon and a dodgy businessman topped the list of Marvel and DC movers & shakers for 2020! It's hard to tell if that was the theme of the year, or just a byproduct of villains having the most to gain as they rise from the bottom rungs with occasional success.
Demogoblin made the biggest gains of the year as we dug deeper into the saga of Maximum Carnage, with Carnage and Shriek also benefitting. Firelord was equal in his improvement after appearing in a Thor epic. The world of the X-Men continues to produce big movers, as well. Sebastian Shaw was up 492 places, with Selene, Magneto, Emma Frost, and Cannonball all rising up hundreds of places!
Other significant gainers from Season 2020 include: Scorpion, Ronan The Accuser, Quasar, Ego The Living Planet, Champion of the Universe, Thunderbolt, Stargirl, and Green Lantern. In the inverse, these characters plunged further down the list: Sasquatch, Bizarro, Sunspot, Magik, Doctor Polaris, Warlock, Banshee, Mirror Master, and Klaw.
The Countdown to 1000 ranked characters has been a feature of Patreon and after adding 46 new characters this year we're just 8 characters away!
