It is the start of Spring in the Northern Hemisphere; which means it’s time for March Madness<\/a>! This year, TheOneRing.net brings you Middle-earth March Madness 2023, Rings of Power<\/em> Edition<\/strong>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Looking back on Season One of the Prime Video show – and pondering what may be in store in Season Two – our 64 competitors are all characters from The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power<\/em>. Who was your favourite amongst the Harfoots (‘Harfeet!’)? Who would win in a showdown between Prince Durin and his father? Will Elendil eventually go up against his own son? YOU decide!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How you decide, of course, is up to you. You may choose to revisit the show on Prime Video and refresh your memory of the plot lines. Perhaps your vote is based on which actors you most enjoyed in their roles; or perhaps you’ll vote according to the characters you felt remained closest to how they appear in the pages of Tolkien’s books. Or maybe you’ll just toss a coin! It’s up to you; but however you decide, now is the time to place your votes!<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

How does it work, you ask? <\/strong>Simple! Click on one of the orange division buttons below. Then click the ‘Vote Now’ option that appears above the divisional bracket. This year you get to vote in each divisional match-up in one convenient and visual interface. Note – you need to click each division to vote in their respective brackets.<\/em> So let’s get voting!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
