(1) Phoenix Wright vs. Edgeworth
(8) Gordon Freeman vs. Dr. Breen
(4) Alucard vs. Dracula
(5) Shepard vs. Saren
Phoenix Wright is a 1 seed. Miles Edgeworth is a 1 seed.
I'll back 'em over Gordon even if I shouldn't. Alucard/Shepard is a pretty good match -- I think Shepard would beat Alucard these days -- but this is ME1 and not ME2 and Alucard/Dracula has classic written all over it.
(3) Chell vs. GlaDOS
(6) Ness vs. Giygas
(2) Frog vs. Magus
(7) Raiden vs. Vamp
Chell and Glados are so hard to peg. With a good picture, they probably beat the Earthbound dudes. With a bad one, they're toast. Ness is the safe pick but I'll back the Portalers, especially after Portal 2. Frog and Magus are a much better rivalry than Raiden and Vamp and that's that.
(4) Alucard vs. Dracula
(2) Frog vs. Magus
Strongly considering Dracula to take this division. I guess I should support Chrono Trigger here but.. man, I don't know. 50/50 for me right here. I know everyone else takes Frog easily, right?
