Could the people voting be required to elaborate on why they picked what they did? Because to be honest it looks like people are intentionally voting for Tsuna because he got knocked 5 points...
I like Tsuna's render because of the style, Eminem*'s looks really clean and well done too.
All in all they look really similar and evenly matched, but I think Eminem blended the render better and looks a little bit more professional.
My thoughts:
Tsuna's is very well put together, but the text completely blocks the ground and the background just looks like a green smudge. The render is also low quality and looks oversharpened.
Mine is probably a little too dark and blending could've been a tad better, but the background's flow is pretty great and the render looks nice.
I hate to be this guy, but I don't see how he has twice as many votes as me...

I totally agree with this even though I don't do GFX.
My reason I voted for Eminem* was because Tsuna's was a little too bland and average.
Eminem*, you really brought out the style of Zelda and made me felt like I was playing Orcarina of Time, so you got my vote
Eminem*'s:Really good,better then what I could've done,although its to dark and the text is a bit choppy but thats about it
Mine:Ugh,Its way too basic.The colour is a bit bright and the render surprisingly looks a bit warped.I enjoy the forest background but overdid the gaussian blur I was going to lower it but I decided not to (or I forgot XD).Overall mine is DECENT enough to be put on the WBO.
Welp,That concludes Tsuna's self-pity confession
When I went to look at this, I kinda chuckled because you both used the same renders, I believe.
I liked Tsuna's, but when I think of Link, I think of green, and Black and White Pencil-Sketch style doesn't really suit him. But I do really like when people utilize shapes to make texts look like they do.
The only reason I voted for Eminem's, is because his just seemed more "Link" to me.
Eminem's only won by a bit, just because of Tsuna's Link Render. They both look almost the same to me, so it was a hard decision.
Another thing I noticed is that this one had the most votes overall, funny.
Tsuna:
Pros:
-It looks neatly done
-I like the depth of the render
Cons:
-It honestly lacks flow
-I believe the render could have done with some blending
----------------------
Enimen:
Pros:
-Has better flow
-Render looks blended
Cons:
-The render looks to darkened
-I don't like the text. It doesn't even suit the GFX nor does it complement it.
I voted Tsuna in the end personally because I didn't like the text on Enimen's. I was 50/50 on both.
Just fyi, the text is from the game The Legend of Zelda.
But yeah it may not really complement the piece.
I personally really liked the way the render was treated in the first entry. The image quality of the second banner as a whole was too low for me.
Neither is the BEST visually imo, here's my thoughts.
I like how the text is placed in Tsuna's but Link's colouring being drained for the most part didn't really catch my eye. The text is the part that stands out the most, but the render seems dull and I feel that the render should stand out more than any text.
The text font colours in Eminem's entry seem cool, Idk how to do that myself. I feel like the render is too dark and it's hard to see the left side of Link's face. The green background stands out as well as the text, but again: The render should stand out more than any text (and background in this case).
They're both decent imo, but neither are appealing enough to me for me to place a vote. Good luck both of you!

Thanks mate! lets do it again
Tsuna's entry was crisper, in a sense, and clear. I like the render used because it was like pseudo-manga/drawing and graphics in one creation. Overall I think it has a good feel.
Eminem's entry felt too dark to me and there was a lot of empty space, because the text was placed off in the corner. The text was also blurry and the Link render seemed too flattened horizontally.
I voted for Tsuna, but the final verdict is that Eminem ultimately wins because of the penalty.
Thanks everyone who voted for me! I had a good run!
