It just so happens to be, in my case, that not only do I like Marina more, but I like the options that she is saddled with more in most cases. Aside from Mayo vs. Ketchup. Mayo for life!
I am aware that most of this salt over Marina losing just comes down to bad luck, but it often feels like the people choosing sides have something to do with this. Over the last two Splatfests, rarely did I see any real quality players on my side of things. But often there were real good players on the other side. Making me think that one of the sides, possibly down to the selection of the idol girl of the moment, attracts a different type of player than the other. Perhaps it's just conjecture. Just thinking out loud right now.
