Zinogre wins
Back in May of this year,Capcom held a Twitter poll to gauge the most popular monsters inMonster Hunter World. Some of you may recall that Safi’jiiva won, with Yian Garuga coming in dead last. WithIcebornein the mix though, things have been shaken up quite a bit.
With four options in the new poll: now,Zinogreis in the lead asthe most popularand most-hunted creature ofIceborne.Safi’jiivais now rocking second place, withVelkhanain third andFiercewater Nargacugaas the fourth-most popular.

As far asthe least-popularmonsters go,Brute Tigrexcame in dead laston a separate pollas fifth place in the loser’s bracket. Third place isShara Ishvalda, second place isScarred Yian Garugaand first place isViper Tobi-Kadachi. For reference, the polls ran through 17:00 JST today, and just concluded around the time of publication.
If you’re interested in comparing and contrasting the poll options for yourself, just head here andcopy/paste the Japanese script into your search bar on this page. This handy database lists monster names in both languages!

While Zinogre is a fine creature to win the poll, I’m still partial to Safi’jiiva.
