Pull up a toadstool, darlings, because the fantasy world's least glamorous creatures just got their own red carpet. A brand-new Morfi opinion market is asking the question every tavern has argued about at some point: which goblin archetype is the most iconic? Game factions, tabletop traits and folklore all want a piece of it, and the knives came out fast.

In one corner is Warcraft's Green Goblin, the cackling little tinkerer, sitting at 21% consensus with 14 holders. In the other is The Witcher's Goblin-like, the grimier, folklore-flavoured option, at 21% consensus with 9 holders. Read that again, sweethearts. It's a tie. Nobody is leading, and nobody is backing down.

Off to the side, still hoping someone notices them: 3 other sides. Don't count them out, my loves. Goblins love sneaking up on people, and this market opened less than a day ago. In my humble and entirely speculative opinion, an underdog goblin pulling an ambush would be the most on-brand plot twist possible.

Two goblins, one red carpet, and no clear winner yet. This is what I live for, darling.

So far 21 traders have joined in and put $51,839 behind their opinions. That's real money, darlings, which is far more commitment than most goblins have ever shown to anything except shiny loot.

Fancy breaking the tie yourself? The consensus figures above come straight from live opinion markets on Morfi, and you can join the market and back your favourite little gremlin right now. Choose wisely, though. Goblins hold grudges.
