Quarter-Finals: 1/4

1. Worf was the first Klingon in Starfleet. He is better known as the Chief of Security for the Enterprise D, though he occasionally served as her XO. His longest stretch as a first officer is as the XO of the USS Defiant.

Vs

8. Former Borg drone Seven of Nine finally joined Starfleet and was on an accelerated command track. She was the First Officer of the USS Titan A, under Captain Shaw.

Two very different careers, but who is the better XO?

Quarter-Finals: 2/4

13. Pavel Chekov is most widely known as the helmsman of the USS Enterprise. He served as the First Officer of the USS Reliant in The Wrath of Khan.

Vs

5. Benjamin Sisko. We first met him as First Officer of the USS Saratoga during the battle of Wolf 359. He later went on to greater fame as commander of Deep Space 9.

Two characters we saw very little of on-screen as a First Officer, but with long legacies. But who was the better First Officer?

Quarter-Final: 3/4

2. Data served as First Officer of the Enterprise D under Captain Jellicoe and was tapped to be the new XO of the E before his death in Nemesis.

Vs

6. Kira Nerys was a Bajoran freedom fighter (terrorist) who found herself as the first officer of the newly Federation-owned Deep Space Nine.

An officer who for much of his screen time had no emotions, against someone who could be a hothead. Who Would you rather have as a First Officer?

Quarter-Finals 4/4

7. Spock served for many years as James T Kirk's First Officer aboard the Enterprise. Known for his level-headed logical nature.

Vs

2. William Riker was First Officer aboard the USS Enterprises D and E. Often criticised for how long he stayed as first officer, his easy-going nature balanced well against Picard.

Two absolute heavyweights. Which of these famous names would you want by your side on the bridge?

And those are your quarter-finalists.

Only Chekov made it through from the Round 1 competitors. A man we saw as First Officer in just one film, beating the man who stood beside Janeway for a full seven seasons.

Riker continues his matchups against absolute titans of First Officership as he takes on Spock.

As always I'd love to know how you voted and why.
