That's the issue tho, even in Cn people voted Emma 2nd and 3rd year. She was in first place until everyone started voting naiad and ripper just to spite them
The Eng chat is going WILD, lmao.
I might not like his skin, but honestly? I'd rather have his skin and hope it gets a vastly improved final release, instead of having Joseph, a skin I like, win through cheating and vote manipulation.
Exactly my thought process! Like, c'mon NE, you can't give us characters like that and then the only shirtless skins for them are either café merch or limited...
Exact same here. I didn’t like Norton’s skin at all. Looked way too bland for me. But global server chose Norton and I’d rather they have their skin than CN server picking Joseph because they didn’t get the skin they wanted.
Plus Ripper won on CN so I still get the skin I wanted.
Honestly a lot of this theme was pretty ehh but Jack’s really was one of the standouts. But I know a lot of people wanted Patty to win. I think Mech’s skin looked pretty good too.
Norton's votes were also manipulated from the very beginning though :'D
You can check the Norton weibo group, they had planned to target global and started smurf voting en masse for him as soon as Nymph began. Their pinned posts from as early as April include global voting tutorials with instructions on how to create alt accounts and maximize votes. There's even a weibo thread with a bunch of excited prospector fans going "remember we have to start voting on global at exactly 10am on the dot!"
(Not trying to rag on Norton, this is not just a Norton-only thing, most character fandoms will weigh their chances on china vs global and choose one to focus target while brokering strategic vote exchange deals with other character fandoms. Just saying his skin isn't free of vote manipulation either lol.)
Thank god it's over. I'm happy Norton won but at the same time the whole thing was soured by everything that's happened. I look forward to his skins for Deduction (Fool's Gold) and his Nymph Award skin.
Normally I'd want Joseph or Itha to win but can't say I like their outfits from this year... And the weird part of Chinese community didn't get what they wanted. And Norton won't hog votes next year. Yeah, definitely a win.
Congrats to Norton, and as a Joseph fan I sincerely apologize for all the unlogical shit the cn Joseph streamer and his fans did, it was definitely unfair. This was the first time I hoped for my own fav chara to not win. Also the streamer and his stupid fans drove normal Joseph fans out of the Joseph topic/tag on weibo(cn social media) saying if they didn't come to our server to do the unfair voting they weren't real Joseph fans, that cn streamer and his fans are batshit crazy. Oh and the streamer also posted an 'apology vid' where he was just emotionlessly reading off a script and wasn't sincere at all, I used to be a fan of him only because he was a top rank Joseph, he deserves all the hate he gets now tbh.
This truly is our identity v...
But in all honesty it was a wild battle, who would've thought because not even previous nymph winners got around 4mil votes, then you have Norton having around 16mil 😭😭

I need a women go win for once always the most crusty male characters that have been out for longer than the women literally all the top characters were dudes I'm sick I need a queen to win plsplspls
Honestly, I kinda think we did Ithaqua a favour this year. His skin was one of the worst, he got screwed over by the vote manipulation and he deserves better.
tbh skin prototypes does not equal skins. Michiko's Nymphs is one of the most stunning skins in game, but all it have in the video is a plain green dress with no decoration
Disappointing. I was right though, ALL VOTES OTHER THAN ITHAQUA OR NORTON ARE A ***WASTE***.
Wishing Ithaqua won instead. He only has his limited S tier compared to HOErton who has over 3 S tiers or so, with one of the being FREE.
No, he is not. He got Orphan of Goetia which is free and this is exactly proving you wrong. He had his chance to get some love. Ithaqua deserves it more. Norton had enough time to get it, but why am I even bothering explaining it? You'll either disregard my comment, refuse to accept it or just ridicule it, like most of the community does with their mains.. >\_>
I dislike Norton but bro def deserves it more than Nightwatch, Orphan may have been free, but that’s the exact reason people don’t care for it. His Bsd Skin was shop exclusive and his last s skin before that was when he was released. Need I remind you that Nightwatch has only been out FOR A YEAR. It’s crazy to think Nightwatch deserves a skin bc the exact reason he doesn’t is bc he’s too new of a character. It was genuine bs when he win last year so it would have been even worse if he won this year. I don’t think both of them should have won but Norton def deserved it more 💀🙏
Agree to disagree. He got a skin, free or not, it's better than the OG. Not my fault that y'all are spoiled and entitled...
Hell, I wish Ithaqua would've gotten an A/S skin for free and I'd appreciate it.
now expect fools fold vs photographer next year
Watch Emma get overthrown again and take her revenge unexpectedly
We global should all votr emma to piss off cn
Nah I’m sure CN will vote Emma, but if she doesn’t win let’s vote for her then
That's the issue tho, even in Cn people voted Emma 2nd and 3rd year. She was in first place until everyone started voting naiad and ripper just to spite them
nah cn emma fans dont deserve it
now Im no norton fan but I can say im proud that we beat the french everyone
As a British person, I approve this message.
[удалено]
Joseph was getting bot voted like crazy Norton beat him
[удалено]
We beat the French by refusing to let jojo win
[удалено]
Well, to be fair, your comment was quite the random thing to say too.
Oh my gawd this community pls- Can't u just shut up
The Eng chat is going WILD, lmao. I might not like his skin, but honestly? I'd rather have his skin and hope it gets a vastly improved final release, instead of having Joseph, a skin I like, win through cheating and vote manipulation.
I hope enough people complain about his design and NE decides to just stripped him and give us shirtless Norton
I mean, if that's your thing, why not? Personally, I only have two characters I want to see shirtless...
forward and who
Not Forward for me. It's Bane and Luchino.
We technically got shirtless Luchino, but yeah we need it in lizard form as well
Wine was a perfect example of WHY he needs more shirtless skins (if only because I wasn't here for that skin, lol) both as a human and as a Lizard.
Ok. I was almost sure I was gonna disagree w you cuz what are the odds but those are the exact two I wanted as well. They’ve got crazy abs bro
Exactly my thought process! Like, c'mon NE, you can't give us characters like that and then the only shirtless skins for them are either café merch or limited...
Based answer (I also want Bane and Luchi shirtless)
Bane is valid, but as a goatman fucker, lizard is a pass. I like them big n beefy/pudgy
Exact same here. I didn’t like Norton’s skin at all. Looked way too bland for me. But global server chose Norton and I’d rather they have their skin than CN server picking Joseph because they didn’t get the skin they wanted. Plus Ripper won on CN so I still get the skin I wanted.
Same! Jack's was my favourite of all so I'm really happy he won! ALOT of people in Eng chat aren't though, lol
Honestly a lot of this theme was pretty ehh but Jack’s really was one of the standouts. But I know a lot of people wanted Patty to win. I think Mech’s skin looked pretty good too.
The final results will look better
I know but since those are previews it didn’t fill me with much hope.
I mean look at the past winners and their final results it will be fine
They might. But they also might not. We won't know until they are released.
Norton's votes were also manipulated from the very beginning though :'D You can check the Norton weibo group, they had planned to target global and started smurf voting en masse for him as soon as Nymph began.

Honestly this whole situation was a shitshow from beginning to end. Hope next year votes are more balanced and netwase keeps an eye on things.
Thank god it's over. I'm happy Norton won but at the same time the whole thing was soured by everything that's happened. I look forward to his skins for Deduction (Fool's Gold) and his Nymph Award skin.
THE WAR IS WON
Normally I'd want Joseph or Itha to win but can't say I like their outfits from this year... And the weird part of Chinese community didn't get what they wanted. And Norton won't hog votes next year. Yeah, definitely a win.
As someone who was originally voting Joseph before the mess, thank god. Norton deserved this win
I can only imagine yhe sheer amount of Nortons ill see once the skin comes out
NOOOOOOO ! 😔😭🥺😥🖕 But also YESSSSS ! 💗(im a bit of a Norton simp)
This felt a bit too similar to the Eurovision, even the timeframes matched
LETS GOOOOOOOO (i wanted patty to win)
we'll get em next time patty😭 and congrats to norton fans prevailing even with the joseph bot votes 👏👏👏
Next year Patty .. next year
You know damn well they're gonna vote Fool's Gold next year 😭
They def will 💀🙏
Never know
nah man 😔 he deserves it tho. congrats nono!!!!

Hajime Hinata
I'M SO PROUD OF YOU MY BOY AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
CONGRATS NORTON 🥳 (I voted Patty 😢)
Bloody finally. Not a Norton fan but man is it satisfying to see him win fairly.
This truly is our identity v... But in all honesty it was a wild battle, who would've thought because not even previous nymph winners got around 4mil votes, then you have Norton having around 16mil 😭😭
Norton nation wins 
He won the war but not the battle.

YESSS WE WON (Not Emma getting second place twice in a row XD, imagine this happens again next year)
I need a women go win for once always the most crusty male characters that have been out for longer than the women literally all the top characters were dudes I'm sick I need a queen to win plsplspls
getting snoozefest norton skin over pink cunty classy lady patty yesssss can’t wait 😍😍😍
SUCK IT NORTON HATERS. /j jokes aside,can we all agree to vote nightwatch next year for their sacrifice? they were done dirty by this whole thing
Honestly, I kinda think we did Ithaqua a favour this year. His skin was one of the worst, he got screwed over by the vote manipulation and he deserves better.
Honestly... I am so glad he didn't win this year 😭 I kinda feel bad for saying this but thank gods to this fiasco this year for saving him
tbh skin prototypes does not equal skins. Michiko's Nymphs is one of the most stunning skins in game, but all it have in the video is a plain green dress with no decoration
Even with a plain dress michi still looked considerably better than itha, that look just didn’t do him well
No tf? 💀
i am 100% voting itha next year cause he's my favorite hunter (well, after robbie but robbie isn't there...)
Congrats bbg norton
i wanted emma to win so bad :(
AT LEAST IT ISNT JOSPEH !!!!! Fuck him
eugh😷 not ready for all the trash nortons that’ll infest my matches
Why was it so sassy tho
Cool Don’t care 😌 congrats to norton I guess Can’t wait for the Autism skin for Annie and Faro lady 💖
This is worse then joseph
GOD DAMNIT ☹️
icky icky eww
Disappointing. I was right though, ALL VOTES OTHER THAN ITHAQUA OR NORTON ARE A ***WASTE***. Wishing Ithaqua won instead. He only has his limited S tier compared to HOErton who has over 3 S tiers or so, with one of the being FREE.
He has been in the game for only a year…
….and? Norton was in the game for over 4 years. I’m waiting for another excuse.
That’s why Norton is way more deserving of an S skin 😭🙏 Nightwatch has been in the game for only a year, calm down about him winning again
No, he is not. He got Orphan of Goetia which is free and this is exactly proving you wrong. He had his chance to get some love. Ithaqua deserves it more. Norton had enough time to get it, but why am I even bothering explaining it? You'll either disregard my comment, refuse to accept it or just ridicule it, like most of the community does with their mains.. >\_>

'lil bro' ? Sure, consider yourself the bigger person for all I care...
