The artwork Terminal Redux is my desktop background on my laptop, so I won't be too mad if it beats Alcest. Though I'm not certain it's my number 2 here, so that would also mean tougher decisions .

Some incredibly tough choices!
Holy Diver and Leviathan are pure beauties.
Terminal Redux eliminated alot of great covers and had an impressive tournament. It could be a Dark Horse for the win but it´s going to be tough.
MATCH 4 was the most difficult one for me so far in this game. Both are great but for different reasons. I went with Mirror Reaper in the end because it didn´t have any points.

Easy vote for Bat II, not that I don't appreciate the imagery of its opponent.
Holy Diver wins for me because of the details, Rising is a strong image.
Helloween is one of the most epic covers ever, so sorry for the space art.
Abigail vs Leviathan is very tough, almost impossible to decide. I like both a lot. But I will give a little more advantage to the fantasy theme. Both deserve to win.
