Union Cup Tournament
The Kingdom Hearts Union Cup Tournament is a Kingdom Hearts tournament held in celebration of the series' 15th Anniversary. It launches October 9, 2017. The purpose is to determine the best of the best from the Kingdom Hearts series according to the voice of the fans. There are various categories that elements and characters can be voted for, including Best Protagonist, Favorite Disney Character, and Favorite Boss Battle. This tournament also serves to prepare the community for the upcoming year of Kingdom Hearts III.

The tournament is being held simultaneously on the Kingdom Hearts Wiki and The Keyhole. In addition to the main tournament, a fanon tournament for movies and worlds in the upcoming Kingdom Hearts III will be held at the Kingdom Hearts Fanon Wiki.

How to Participate
Requirements: Have a registered account. That's it!

All are invited to participate and vote during the tournament. Additionally, each battle has a "Hub" for discussion; all are encouraged to (civilly) discuss the battles and try and convince others why one character or subject is better than the other(s). There are new battles every week, and at the end of the week, the votes will be tallied and the winner moves on to the next round. Battles go from Monday to Friday. To vote, simply add your signature without timestamp by adding  in the section for the combatant you're voting for.

As you vote, we invite you to improve corresponding articles on the Kingdom Hearts Wiki or The Keyhole. Questions about the tournament should be brought to KeybladeSpyMaster.


 * Those who vote here must have a registered account on the Kingdom Hearts Wiki. This is to help us keep track of the votes.
 * Once the bracket begins, users may vote only once in each battle that is open. Multiple votes will be disqualified.
 * You may change your vote, but only before the battle ends. Once the battle ends, the final score will be calculated and the winning subject will advance to the next round.
 * Do not use multiple accounts to nominate or vote. Sockpuppetry is strictly prohibited on the wiki.

Nominations
Three brackets in the tournament have nomination periods, which begin October 9. During these, you may nominate whomever fits in those categories for the actual tournament. Each bracket has a limit of how many total may be nominated. If more than that number is nominated, only the top-voted nominations will go on to the actual tournament bracket. To nominate a combatant for the bracket, simply add a bullet and the combatant by typing, then add your vote underneath your nominated combatant. To vote, add a second-level bullet and your signature without timestamp by typing  underneath the combatant you are voting for.
 * You may nominate up to ten different combatants in each category. You may also vote in favor of five nominated combatants in each category.
 * Example: You may nominate ten different characters for the "Best Disney Character" category, and vote in favor of five other previously-nominated characters in that same category.
 * You may nominate only in categories that are opened for nominations. Some categories have pre-determined brackets prepared by tournament organizers (because there are much fewer subjects).
