(1) X vs. Zero
(8) Captain Falcon vs. Shadow
(4) Guybrush vs. LeChuck
(5) Bartz vs. Gilgamesh
X and not Mega Man X, huh? Interesting. Guybrush and LeChuck vs. Bartz and Gilgamesh -- this is what we're reduced to in this contest! This seems like an easy pick -- Final Fantasy vs. Guybrush Threepwood -- but I could see the Monkey Island duo pulling off some magic. X and Zero slam the competition.
(3) Donkey Kong vs. King K. Rool
(6) Ezio vs. Rodrigo
(2) Sub-Zero vs. Scorpion
(7) Leon vs. Ada Wong
DK vs. Ezio -- if DK didn't have a choker's rep I'd probably back him, but Ezio is probably on DK's level at this point. Too bad Revelations won't be out until a week after this match. Anyway, going against Nintendo strikes me as a Bad Idea but DK vs. King K Rool isn't the iconic kind of rivalry I think of when I think of Nintendo. I'll take Ezio's personal tale over that.
Sub/Scorp vs. Leon/Ada is a huge match. Leon probably beats Sub-Zero but I think the MK duo are just a bit more iconic. The winner takes the fourpack.
(1) X vs. Zero
(2) Sub-Zero vs. Scorpion
I am heavily, heavily considering taking Sub and Scorpion. They just strike me as being more iconic. X and Zero aren't bad in this department though and they're stronger from a pure strength perspective. Eh, I'll probably stick with the Mega Men.
