SolarWinds Crowns Champion in Second Annual Bracket Battle
- After Five Rounds of Grueling Game-on-Game Combat, SolarWinds Announced That Doom(R) Reigns Supreme in the 2014 Gaming Bracket Battle
The second annual SolarWinds® Bracket Battle featured a “March Mayhem”-style competition among iconic arcade, console and computer games. Driven purely by community votes, the Bracket Battle led to heated debate and a few Intimidating Shouts, but “Leeroy Jenkins” was kept in line across SolarWinds' thwack(http://thwack.solarwinds.com/welcome?CMP=PUB-PR-SWI-prq214_Bracket_Battle_Champ-X-THHP) community and beyond, with fan bases taking to Twitter®, Facebook® and other message boards to mobilize their troops.
In the final matchup, Call of Duty® faced off against Doom®. In their journey to the final, both games came up against fierce competition:
· Halo®, World of Warcraft®, Super Mario Kart®, and Grand Theft Auto™ stood in the way of Call of Duty making the final showdown
· Doom, on the other hand, had to go through Quake®, Resident Evil®, Mortal Kombat®, and the Legend of Zelda® to make it to the championship match
In the end, however, Doom won through its first-person sharp shooting prowess, fearlessness and adaptability.
In 2015, SolarWinds‘ Bracket Battle 3.0 will return with 34 new challengers poised for dominance. But will the 2013 winner, Star Trek®’s Spock®, make a heroic return to defend his title or will a new genre create controversy among loyal fan bases? Stay tuned to thwack to find out more.
