Leader depiction elimination thread

[altayrneto]

Chandragupta Maurya - 20
Cyrus the Great - 18 + 1 =19 One of the best looking leaders, and the VA is pretty good (he gets my vote just because this. He being portraied as a treacherous backstaber is so inaccurate that looks even purposeful)
Genghis Khan - 1-3=-2 (eliminated) Genghis is one of the individuals that had the most impact in History, with an awesome history and a legacy greater than just conquests. It’s hard to make a worthy despiction of him. (But, is still better than many others)

Skipping the last one as no rationale given.

Chandragupta Maurya - 20
Cyrus the Great - 19
Gitarja - 26
Gorgo - 20
Hojo Tokimune - 18 (17+1) Overall looks excellent
Jadwiga - 6 (9-3) not as good as everyone else left on the list
Jayavarman VII - 14
John Curtin - 11

Anyways, here is my vote, complete with rationale:

Chandragupta Maurya - 20
Cyrus the Great - 19
Gitarja - 27 (26 + 1) It's still the graceful animations and deeply pleasant voice which appeals to me.
Gorgo - 20
Hojo Tokimune - 18
Jadwiga - 6
Jayavarman VII - 14
John Curtin - 11
Lautaro - 13 (16 - 3) To me, this one just looks too much like a generic Disney prince. Also, it was at the point when Lautaro was included that I felt the addition of another hot shirtless dude was starting to look a bit fan-servicey.
Peter the Great - 15

@KayAU, you can always write "same as yesterday" or something like that, if you wish to vote for same leaders but don't want to write long reasons again

Although, you are probably right that I should check that people don't use things that have nothing to do with depiction (like abilities) as reasons.

Hojo Tokimune - 18

Jayavarman VII - 14
John Curtin - 11 - 3 = 8 Plain and uninteresting.
Lautaro - 13
Peter the Great - 15
Poundmaker 27
Seondeok - 20 + 1 = 21 Seo Yuri's voice is very pleasant to listen to.
Teddy Roosevelt - 22

 

[HoorayForSiam]

Chandragupta Maurya - 20
Cyrus the Great - 20 (19+1) Looks very regal and pleasing to the eye.
Gitarja - 27
Gorgo - 20
Hojo Tokimune - 18
Jadwiga - 6
Jayavarman VII - 14
John Curtin - 5 (8-3) I just can not take this guy seriously as a world leader.

John Curtin - 2 (5-3) I am sorry but everything about this guy and his inclusion just screams "marketing"
Lautaro - 13

[JH24]

Chandragupta Maurya - 20
Cyrus the Great - 20
Gitarja - 27
Gorgo - 20
Hojo Tokimune - 18
Jadwiga - 3 (6-3) Choices are definitely getting more difficult. I have to pick Jadwiga because her voice just doesn't feel right, but I do like her design and overall theme of her civ.
Jayavarman VII - 14
John Curtin - 2
Lautaro - 14 (13 + 1) Lautaro may not hold out much longer, but I'll support him to the end. Along with Poundmaker and Gitarja, he's my favorite among the civs. Everything just feels right. His design, animations, his voice acting and the theme, the history of the Mapuche, the symbolism of the sword he wields; it just all fits together well. Really like the atmosphere surrounding the Mapuche and the Cree. In every new game I always make sure these two are in it.

Gorgo - 20
Hojo Tokimune - 18
Jadwiga - 3
Jayavarman VII - 14
John Curtin - 2 - 3 = You really couldn't stop this transgression against your nation. You were the worst out of these imo
Lautaro - 14
Peter the Great - 16
Poundmaker 27
Seondeok - 21 + 1 = 22 Excellent voice acting, excellent dissatisfied look.

[Morningcalm]

Chandragupta Maurya - 20
Cyrus the Great - 20
Gitarja - 27
Gorgo - 20
Hojo Tokimune - 18
Jadwiga - 3 - 3 = Goodbye bad Voice Acting and ahistorical appearance (Annoyed she outlasted Curtin though, who was much more interesting.)
Jayavarman VII - 14
Lautaro - 14
Peter the Great - 16
Poundmaker 27
Seondeok - 22
Teddy Roosevelt - 22 + 1 = 23 (Since his appearance change, he looks and sounds like Roosevelt.)

Gorgo - 20
Hojo Tokimune - 18 + 1 = 19. Probably my favorite. Love the way Japanese sounds plus samurai are awesome.
Jayavarman VII - 14 - 3 = 11. I don't dislike him, but he is the one I like the least who is remaining.

[Ozymandias9891]

Chandragupta Maurya - 20
Cyrus the Great - 20 - 3 = 17 Something about him reminds me of a moustache-twirling villain instead of Persian king...
Gitarja - 27
Gorgo - 20
Hojo Tokimune - 19
Jayavarman VII - 11
Lautaro - 14
Peter the Great - 16 + 1 = 17 "Kalinka, kalinka, kalinka moya"... Love this song!

Jayavarman VII - 11 + 1 = 12 I shall save my relaxing moment, with its serene leader and beautiful music !
Lautaro - 14
Peter the Great - 17
Poundmaker - 27 - 3 = 24 This guy actually drives me crazy, always congratulating me for performing his agenda, and 2 turns later criticizing me for the opposite -_-
Seondeok - 22
Teddy Roosevelt - 23

 

[Siptah]

Chandragupta Maurya - 20
Cyrus the Great - 18 (17+1) good mix between a cartoony look and realism
Gitarja - 27
Gorgo - 20
Hojo Tokimune - 19
Jayavarman VII - 12
Lautaro - 14
Peter the Great - 17
Poundmaker - 21 (24-3) not cartoony enough
Seondeok - 22
Teddy Roosevelt - 23

 

[Kimiimaro]

One more leader and we'll know who will belong to the top 10!

Chandragupta Maurya - 20
Cyrus the Great - 18
Gitarja - 27
Gorgo - 20
Hojo Tokimune - 19
Jayavarman VII - 12
Lautaro - 14-3=11 - It's getting hard to vote. I don't have anything against him, but just find his model to be the least interesting of the rest.
Peter the Great - 17+1=18 - Good and interesting agenda, great voice acting and quite accurate model.
Poundmaker - 21
Seondeok - 22
Teddy Roosevelt - 23

Cyrus the Great - 18
Gitarja - 27
Gorgo - 20
Hojo Tokimune - 19
Jayavarman VII - 12
Lautaro - 11-3=8 - He isn't bad, but his visual appearance looks somehow boring to me, as if his model is missing some details, which would make him more remarkable.
Peter the Great - 18+1=19 - He turned out very charismatic in Civ VI, combining Westernized style and certain Russian national vibe.

Chandragupta Maurya - 20
Cyrus the Great - 18
Gitarja - 27
Gorgo - 21 (20 + 1) When Civ6 first came out, she kind of irritated me. But I think I now get where she's coming from. In her world, you either are a warrior and have honor or avoid bloodshed and are without it. She'd make a good Klingon.
Hojo Tokimune - 16 (19 - 3) He's the least interesting to me out of what's left. And his odd movements put him just below the rest for me.
Jayavarman VII - 12
Lautaro - 8
Peter the Great - 19
Poundmaker - 21
Seondeok - 22
