#HowDoYouHunt top 10 entries and winner revealed!
Arguably the coolest contest we’ve ever run in this company (at least I think so!), the #HowDoYouHunt contest finally has a winner!
First of all, I want to thank everyone for participating (including Gaijinhunter, who was not even eligible to win!). And I must say it was incredibly hard to narrow the lenghty list of awesome entries down to just a Top 10; never mind selecting a winner. This was harder than any G Rank I’ve ever had to do!
I even recruited help from people from various departments here, making sure they had worked on and played at least 2 Monster Hunter titles. They also complained it was extremely hard to pick winner!
All that is to say: great job, everyone!
Now here’s the Top 10 entries and our winner:
YankeeBankee – Rinforzato, Hunting Horn
Just a very heart-warming entry that hits a lot of the right notes =)
Keihkono – Teostra’s Emblem, Sword and Shield
Yes, I want my hunts to look like their were directed by Michael Bay!
scoutstiel – Doomblade “Slave”, Long Sword
Can definitely relate to the desire of taking MH weapons to dinner parties.
ShaolinHammer – Imperial Gunhammer, Hammer
He knows how to use a hammer in real life!!!
ChocoDotori – Permanence, Charge Blade
I can’t stop thinking of the Felyne literally eating sand after falling from the Sandskiff…
itsavgbltpta – Lunatic Rose, Sword and Shield
Ah yes! Love the lyrics and use of the Felyne theme!
Shawn_1995 – Epitaph Eternal, Great Sword
So much energy!!! And yes, anyone who updgrades an Ancient Shard weapon all the way deserves a Patience badge of sorts.
So that’s 7 entries so far, in no particular order, and I hope you can agree with me that any of these could have taken the top prize… however, these next few entries netted out with the most votes from our internal panel of judges; so here’s our Top 3, including the winner:
3RD
YukiLilyyy – Daora’s Entom, Insect Glaive
Guildmarm playing a ukelele caught us all by surprise and sure captured my heart.
2ND
Hakuramen – Akantor Bow, Bow
Sounds just like the game is bleeding into real life!
GRAND PRIZE:
VengefulTorture – Dual Dragons “Angst”, Dual Blades
“IT’S JUST MATH!” Sorry, can’t argue with math. =]
Well played, sir; you win a life-size replica of the Dual Dragons “Angst”!
Again, thanks to everyone who participated and made this an awesome contest! I definitely had a lot of fun reviewing each individual entry and I’ve actually read a lot of entrants say they had fun making their video entries. So there: the contest is over, but if you feel like making your own video telling everyone #HowDoYouHunt, why not?
