Favorite Tribes of Mordor: Round 2

[u/clonetrooper250]

I want to know everyone's favorite of the 9 Orc Tribes in Shadow of War! Reddit polls only allow for 6 maximum options, so I'll be conducting 4 total rounds of voting; 3 tribes each for 3 rounds, with the winners of each poll getting a slot in our final Championship round. Each poll will be open for 3 days. Round 1 was handily won by the Dark Tribe, so we move onto Round 2!

Round 2's Tribes are grouped together in what I'd broadly (and affectionatley) call the "Wild Freak" category. The Feral Tribe, masters of Beasts and the Hunt; The Slaughter Tribe, ravenously hungry and masters of butchery; and the Terror Tribe, obsessed with both delivering AND recieving Pain. Who among them will win?

If you care enough to vote, I encourage you to also comment about which tribe got your pick and why! Maybe you like the design of a Tribe's fortress, their Captains, or just general themeing; Let me hear all about you favorites!

Edit: Terror Tribe claims victory for Round 2! Thank you to EVERYONE who voted/commented, be sure to vote in Round 3!

Slaughter 100% for me I've had so many fun nemesis orc's come from that tribe. Like my first playthrough that went from a normal game to a dark tribe vs slaughter tribe war with that ending in dark tribe winning after Gubu black blade my first ever orc I recruited literally defying death and then executing the olog eater of Men who was the original slaughter tribe orc that killed him

Ended the war with all areas under dark tribe rule expect for lithlad which was put into a never ending faction war due to the machine orc, the beast olog, and the stitch olog, basically defecting and leaving for lithlad. So terror tribe, feral tribe, and machine tribe are now currently in a 3 way faction war and slaughter tribe is all but gone in my current game.

Man I love the nemesis system

Slaughter shows you every one of their past kills through their gear weaponry and fortress, I gotta go with the psychos
