* Since ''OrderOfTheStick'' has a lot of [[EnsembleDarkhorse Ensemble Darkhorses]] as it is, some fans picked a totally random Azurite soldier ("That Guy With a Halbred") and tried to elevate him to this status. It sort of worked---he gets brought up a lot when it's time to make [[CrackPairing Crack Pairings]], but still, he's no ''O-Chul.''

** Also occurs in the ''naming'' of tropes. It's a very real debate in the forums, from time to time, whether the purpose of TVTropes includes promoting specific fan-speak terms so as to become recognized across ''all'' fandoms. [[RuleOfCautiousEditingJudgement Please, no specific examples here, though]].

* In WorldOfWarcraft, in response to the sudden popularity of the [[AscendedExtra minor]] Horde character [[EnsembleDarkhorse Varok]] [[MemeticBadass Saurfang]] (due to the ChuckNorris-themed 'Facts' actually being [[ActuallyPrettyFunny funny/awesome]]), many Alliance players attempted to use the same meme to promote Alliance minor heroes, in hopes of recreating the Saurfang phenomenon.
** To date, they have tried this for Bolvar Fordragon initially, then Magni Bronzebeard when that didn't catch on, then Varian Wrynn (... with ''[[TheWesley disastarous]]'' results), then Magni's brother Muradin Bronzebeard, and now with the upcoming expansion Catacylsm, this is being attempted again with Genn Greymane and [[http://www.wowwiki.com/Darius_Crowley Darius Crowley]]. To date, none of these characters have actually caught on, despite many of them being generally likable (or at least tolerable) by the ''entire'' playerbase. Although it has resulted in Blizzard giving many of these characters, Bolvar in particular, more prominent roles in the story.
