## Frequently Asked Questions

### How does the movie villains bracket work?

Thirty two villains enter the bracket. Spin the wheel to draw each head to head matchup, vote on the more memorable villain with your group, and advance the winner until one baddie is crowned champion.

### How is this different from the MCU villains and Disney villains brackets?

This bracket skips MCU characters and Disney animated villains on purpose. It covers Star Wars, Batman, Harry Potter, horror slashers, and classic drama villains instead, so run all three if you want the full villain landscape.

### Is this a power ranking or a menace ranking?

That is up to your group. Decide before round one whether you are voting on raw power, sheer terror, or which villain is simply the best written character.

### Can I run a horror villains only bracket?

Yes, edit the list to keep only Freddy Krueger, Jason Voorhees, Michael Myers, Pennywise, and the other horror icons for a slasher only showdown.

### Who usually wins the movie villains bracket?

Darth Vader and Hannibal Lecter are frequent finalists, but Freddy Krueger and The Joker pull off deep runs in almost every group.
