- Ronin's Retribution
My suggestion would be Ronin's Criminal Decimation. I'd understand if you wanted to change "Decimation", that word could be a bit better. I only chose it because the Black Market Auctioneer used the word "decimated". - GarrettPlayzRBLX (talk) 05:27, 16 May 2022 (UTC)
- It doesn't fit, sorry.--Shabook (talk) 20:59, 19 May 2022 (UTC)
I think this is one of those times where something a bit generic like Ronin's Crusade would fit. Ronin's activities definitely fit a crusade, with all the violence and zeal that implies. — Zero-ELEC (talk) 18:31, 21 May 2022 (UTC)
- I'd say no to that one, I don't think crusade is the best choice, That could better be used for another War page in my opinion. I nominate something along the lines of Ronin's Killing Spree - E-Scope04 (talk) 19:05, 21 May 2022 (UTC)
- Way too vague and definitely gives the inaccurate impression that he just killed a bunch of random people. - GarrettPlayzRBLX (talk) 20:18, 21 May 2022 (UTC)

- I do like the Ronin's Crusade name. I'm not a fan of the other "Killing Spree" or "Criminal Killings" names because Ronin here is clearly undertaking a personal campaign with a specific, premeditated goal in mind. I think "Crusade" best illustrates this description. Criszz (talk) 07:34, 23 January 2023 (UTC)
- No, not another crusade... -Shabook (talk) 12:11, 24 January 2023 (UTC)
- While I do believe we should limit the amount of "Crusade" we use, I think in this case Ronin's Crusade is actually the most fitting. All these other "Criminal Killings", "Killing Spree", "Crime Eradication"; none of these truly capture the essence of Ronin's actions. •

I suggest Ronin's Criminal Killings, but I'm not sure if readers would understand that he was killing criminals instead of just illegaly killing random civilians. - GarrettPlayzRBLX (talk) 20:34, 21 May 2022 (UTC)
- This name just sounds weird tbh. -Ewysgarcoyustcrouiwetsnro - My Blogs - Message Wall - 06:02, 8 July 2022 (UTC)
- How about Ronin's Vendetta -

How does everyone feel about Ronin's Crime Elimination. It still takes the main purpose of his killing spree, which is to eliminate crime done by people who survived the snap. - Raff • Message Wall • Contributions 23:53, 14 July 2023 (UTC)
- Yeah, that could work. - GarrettPlayzRBLX (talk) 16:19, 18 December 2023 (UTC)
- He isn't really going around eliminating crime though. He's killing hardened criminals. • MJLogan95 | Message Wall • Contributions 01:34, 2 July 2024 (UTC)
- He isn't really going around eliminating crime though. He's killing hardened criminals. •
- I also suggest Ronin's Criminal Eradication and I'm resuggesting Ronin's Criminal Killings. Someone before said it sounded weird, but it does accurately sum up what Ronin was doing. - GarrettPlayzRBLX | Message Wall • Contributions 19:42, 12 January 2024 (UTC)
- He didn't exactly eradicate crime though. He just killed hardened criminals. Halting crime was never his motive. • MJLogan95 | Message Wall • Contributions 01:34, 2 July 2024 (UTC)

- How about Ronin's War on Crime, I think it's simple and works well for what it is. AmazinglyCool (talk) 22:10, 12 January 2024 (UTC)
- "War on blank" is not going to work. - Raff • Message Wall • Contributions 22:53, 12 January 2024 (UTC)
- Someone suggested something with a vendetta, and I'd like to expand that and suggest Ronin's Vendetta Against Criminals. He was angry with the criminals themselves because they, bad people, survived the Snap when his family didn't. - GarrettPlayzRBLX | Message Wall • Contributions 15:21, 1 July 2024 (UTC)
- Not personally a fan of that name, to be honest. • MJLogan95 | Message Wall • Contributions 01:34, 2 July 2024 (UTC)

I am splitting up this discussion to make it cleaner due to the overwhelming amounts of disagreements above.
I suggest Ronin's Bringing of Justice. It comes from a quote:
- "Ronin brought a brutal form of justice to his victims, and his identity continues to remain a mystery to this very day."
- ―Black Market Auctioneer[src]

- I agree with the first suggestion being informal. It's too wordy and does not get the central idea across. Ronin's Retribution is the most accurate name I think we can come up with. Crusade is fine, but it's probably a little misleading. My vote is for Retribution, but I figured if we want more options, we could also go with Ronin's Reckoning, Ronin's Warpath or Ronin's Revenge. Either are fine, but I'm for Retribution. -Bozz77 (talk) 12:30, 7 August 2024 (UTC)
- Out of all I think retribution is better. - Raff • Message Wall • Contributions 13:50, 7 August 2024 (UTC)
- I favor Ronin's Crusade among the suggestions discussed on this talk page, but I am leaning towards a more descriptive option that emphasizes the vigilantism aspect of Ronin's mission. Ronin's Vigilante Crusade keeps it clear what the nature of the crusade is, makes it more descriptive without it being too wordy or lengthy, and leaves less room for misinterpretation. - Mister Explicit • Message Wall • Contribs - 14:22, 9 August 2024 (UTC)
- That works if Scarlet Witch's War doesn't get changed to a crusade. So if you really want this, I suggest throwing more suggestions into Scarlet Witch's War. - Raff • Message Wall • Contributions 18:30, 9 August 2024 (UTC)
- Let's assume that "Scarlet Witch's War" remains unchanged. Do you personally favor "Ronin's Vigilante Crusade" over the other options we've considered?- Mister Explicit • Message Wall • Contribs - 21:18, 10 August 2024 (UTC)
- I assume you mean Scarlet Witch's War getting changed to something else, then I favor Crusade. - Raff • Message Wall • Contributions 23:30, 10 August 2024 (UTC)

Doesn't look like there are any more suggestions coming in, plus we have a lot of solid ones here, so I say pick the best ones and let's put it to a vote. - Bozz77 (talk) 23:31, 13 August 2024 (UTC)
Vote
Looks like this has to be put to a vote between "Ronin's Vigilante Crusade" and "Ronin's Retribution". - Raff • Message Wall • Contributions 00:25, 14 August 2024 (UTC)

Ronin's Vigilante Crusade
- I'm not fond of Retribution, but if that's what the people prefer I'll go along with it. My vote still goes to Vigilante Crusade. - Mister Explicit • Message Wall • Contribs - 03:38, 14 August 2024 (UTC)
Ronin's Retribution
- This one a slightly better in my opinion. - Raff • Message Wall • Contributions 00:26, 14 August 2024 (UTC)
- Agreed. It's just a better name that flows and has more accuracy. The other one is just a bit too vague and crusade can be better used elsewhere. - Bozz77 (talk) 00:30, 14 August 2024 (UTC)
- I like this one more as well. - DemKnux (talk) 00:42, 14 August 2024 (UTC)
- I don't particularly like either, but this one sounds better than the alternative - E-Scope | Message Wall • Contribs - 00:50, 14 August 2024 (UTC)
- I was the one who suggested Ronin's Retribution while struggling to find something perfectly fitting, so here is where my vote goes. • MJLogan95 | Message Wall • Contributions 03:54, 14 August 2024 (UTC)
- My vote goes to Ronin’s Retribution. - GarrettPlayzRBLX | Message Wall • Contributions 17:06, 14 August 2024 (UTC)
The vote has concluded with 6-1 finish for a rename to Ronin's Retribution. - Raff • Message Wall • Contributions 17:22, 21 August 2024 (UTC)
