Wow, what an incredibly boring contest; it's like all the characters you've seen before and would have nominated in a real character battle, but the folks that don't have a rival aren't eligible.
This. Plus some relatively unknown characters are gonna get into the bracket because of the rivalry clause, and then we'll end up with a team of useless characters who get no votes instead of individuals.

I quite like the contest, personally. I'm thinking voters will probably take the rivalry aspect as least somewhat seriously, so characters who would normally be mid-tier will vault ahead because their RIVALRY is notable. Red v. Blue from Pokemon is the best possible case of this; Fox and Wolf is another.
This is the exact opposite of what I'm expecting to happen; I think people are just gonna vote for any group of characters that they like, just like in a normal character battle. Red vs. Blue might be the only major exception (and only because of Board 8's support).
