Ultimate Ginter Mini Set Bracket Contest: Round of 32 Voting Continues with the Cats & Dogs Region

The Round of 32 continues with the next region of our Allen & Ginter Mini Set Bracket!

As before, I'll give a brief rundown of each of the various match-ups and then solicit your votes for the winner of each match-up down at the bottom of the post.  


2012 Man's Best Friend vs. 2012 People of the Bible

The Cats and Dogs region got its name from the three sets within it that featured either (you guessed it) cats or dogs as a theme.  The 2012 Man's Best Friend was the highest seeded of the three pet-themed sets and it proved it's seeding with a 12-2 trouncing of the 2019 In Bloom set (a set that I liked a lot, actually).  This time around, the doggies are taking on the members of the Bible.  The 2012 People of the Bible set shouldn't be completely discounted here as that set walloped the 2018 World's Hottest Peppers set (which was a set that had been seeming to gain a lot of fans as the competition has gone on).

2010 Lords of Olympus vs. 2017 Magicians and Illusionists

The Magicians set was the set that knocked out the cat themed "Little Lions" in the Round of 64 by an 8-8 tiebreaker vote (tiebreakers are determined by the first cast vote in the comment section).  The Lords of Olympus had a much easier go of it in the Round of 64 cruising to a 14-1 victory over Heavy Hangs the Head.  I'm not a cat person so I didn't mind losing the Little Lions set so early but I am a huge fan of Greek culture (especially ancient Greek culture) so my personal rooting interest here is the Lords of Olympus!

2017 Constellations vs. 2019 Collectible Canines

The second of the two doggie themed sets remaining in this bracket, the 2019 Collectible Canines set drew a tougher Round of 32 match-up as it has to go up against the glow-in-the-dark Constellations from 2017.  Personally, while the glow-in-the-dark bit is cool the Constellation cards are too boring to look at unless you are in the dark!  I much prefer the larger Collectible Canines set and I kind of am rooting for an all-dog set match-up in a few rounds for this particular region!

2019 Chugging Along vs. 2014 World's Deadliest Predators

Trains vs. Predators.  Sounds like a B-movie title but instead it's simply the last of the match-ups for the Cats and Dogs Region of the bracket.  I like both of these sets a lot so I'll be sad to lose one of them...but then again, there are a ton of mini sets that I like a lot and we have to lose all but one of them at some point in the competition!

And that does it for this region of the bracket.  Time to vote!

To vote, please copy the text below and then delete the set you don't want to win.  This will make it a lot easier for me to quickly tally the winners of each match-up.  I also encourage you to stump for your favorite sets (remember, there is a bracket prediction contest going on here as well)!
