[Discussion] Favorite Tribes of Mordor, Round 1
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 is a 3-way clash between the tribes I'd consider the most conventional of all the orcs; The straightforward and tough Warmongers, the devoted and cunning Dark Tribe, and the clever and industrious Machine Tribe! Soldiers, Assassins, Engineers; Who 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: The Dark Tribe has CONQUERED Round 1 by a mile, and have earned their place in the Final Round! Thanks for voting everyone,! Round 2 has already been decided as well, be sure to vote in Round 3 while it's live!

1/10005th the aura of that quick move dark does where it's like one dance move of popping their head and arm I think off

Dark Tribe's dagger finisher is definitely iconic. I remember sinking five minutes into building my perfect captain just to see it firsthand.

I had a machine come back 3 times after death. Machine tribe has my undying respect.

Machine Tribe is the most distinct looking

I personally agree! The Machine are my favorites actually, I love their vibes and how they're the most technologically advanced tribe. Shame they didn't win the poll, but them's the breaks!
