Ancalagan and Carcharoth meet in the first round? Inconceivable! I call the seeding system into question!

This is a tough one indeed. Both dragons and werewolves are pretty darn cool, and Ancalagon and Carcharoth represent the top notch of each species. I think I'll go with

++Carcharoth.

He at least has some character.

Nope, for me it doesn't. I don't like dragons in general.

Don't complain - skippy was much more evil.

I never really liked Carcharoth (and the first time I read his name I was reminded of a Great White Shark, which I think is overrated too).

++Ancalagon

Oh, this is soo wrong!

But anyway, let's gather under the banner of Ancalagon the Black! Everyone! It's the last stand!

++ Ancalagon

Werewolf is a game, dragons are for real!

Hear ye! Hear ye all!

As it surprisingly looks like the voting round is not over, then let me specify my call why you all should vote for Ancalagon by just rephrasing my earlier one.

Werefolves are game, humans (and elves, and...) are game to the dragons...

As Nogrod correctly notes, it's been over one day
voting, since I started a bit early, and since there would need to
be three more votes for the worm to prevail, so
voting seems over now, therefore the final for the first bout is

Carcharoth 7
Ancalagon 5

Ancalagon was heard to fume:
"Youz ain't seen the last of us drakes.
Wait until me mates from Erebor
and Thangorodrim gets here.
We hates werewolves, we hates 'em forever!"

Next round (one day to vote, I'll try to be more on time):
King of the Dead vs. Eol

On their plus sides Eol listened to his mum, and the
King of the Dead, he, ah.............

Hee , Hee! Actually, pretty much deliberate. I tend to
not like seedings like in the NCAA's basketball tournament,
where you get too many mismatches early. Besides, this
way Golfimbul or Bill Ferny get to advance.

Well, looking ahead I have to go now to check out
101 Things to do with Dead Cats.

Oh wait! What if the cats win!

So far
Carcharoth 7
Ancalagon 5
