From: Sorozone | #060The best possible situation is to use a strong(but not the strongest)duo that can be a legitimate threat, but ultimately loses to Link/Ganondorf by 5-8%.
Indeed. And I hope that the choice of duo would not be left up to Bacon.
He'd probably pick something really stupid, like Goku/Vegeta or Harry Potter/Voldemort, both of which would get easily tripled or worse by Link/Ganon. Or Superman/Lex Luthor, who would also lose badly I think. And then Bacon would say "non-VG originating characters are weak, it's a bad contest idea".
We'd need a duo that would have some strength. Something like Spider-Man vs. Venom or Wolverine vs. Sabretooth could work as well. Or maybe Professor X vs. Magneto. Now these rivalries would lose to Link handily (except for Spidey/Venom who might be able to keep it close), but they'd do better than the great majority of the VG rivalries in this bracket.
If someone does not want it to be Batman vs. The Joker because they don't want to be able to estimate Batman's strength yet, I think Vader vs. Obi-Wan is the best choice. Spidey/Venom would be a good choice as well.
