Today's contestants:

MATCH 1:

LinkMarioSamus vs. Star Wars Episode VIII: The Last Jedi (User Spite)



LMS is an underrated user. Many users just dis him because he likes to share unpopular opinions about things that people were never talking about in the first place, but in reality his opinions are some of the most well-thought out and insightful Ive seen out of any Board 8 user, not only regarding movies, but also regarding games and contests in general.

Well, the only thing I know about LMS and Star Wars is that he shares many opinions, both good and bad, with the rest of the fanbase regarding the whole Star Wars saga. LMS is a cinephile, if I dare say it I mean, he watches all kinds of things, including MST3K, which features every kind of bad movie out there that you can make fun of. The Last Jedi, though, is arguably one of the best Star Wars movies of the modern era, so if he has something bad to say about it, Ill give him the benefit of being a truly analytical mind. -Advokaiser

Kirby vs. King Dedede (Kirby Series)



King Dedede was the original antagonist of Kirby games. Hes a fat-but-ultra-sexy penguin that made his debut in 1992 alongside Kirby himself. Though I much better prefer the stronger, cooler, and more serious rivalry with Meta Knight, the triple-D penguin has enough character of his own and similarities to Kirby to compensate for Meta Knights absence, such as both being capable of floating in mid-air, and eating industrial quantities of food by merely inhaling them. They also like to race for food in the oh-so-famous Gourmet Race.

Also, did you know that Mr. Sakurai himself is the one who voices King Dedede in Smash? I dont really know how much of a known fact it is, but I just felt like pointing it out. -Advokaiser

MATCH 2:

PC vs. Mac (Computers)



This rivalry pretty much comes down to Bill Gates vs. Steve Jobs: Both men had incredibly creative minds that made a big, fat fortune for themselves.

It all started when, back in like the 60s/70s or so, people were laughing at the idea of having a personal computer at home, since they used to be incredibly expensive and large machines that would often take a lot of time to simply get started on.

Years later, These two men were innovating and bringing people new hardware and software that would become staples to what we now use on a daily basis: web browsers, a mouse and pointer, portable devices, and more. -Advokaiser

Hal Jordan vs. Sinestro (Green Lantern)



Thaal Sinestro is a fictional supervillain appearing in comic books published by DC Comics. Sinestro is a former Green Lantern Corps member who was dishonorably discharged for abusing his power. He is the archenemy of Hal Jordan and founder of the Sinestro Corps.

When Hal Jordan joined the Green Lantern Corps, Sinestro was assigned to be his instructor. Jordan was horrified at his new mentor's totalitarian methods, though Sinestro maintained that his iron-fisted rule was necessary to protect his people from alien forces. During his training, Jordan helped Sinestro repel an attempted invasion of Korugar by the alien warlords known as the Khunds. When Jordan called for help from the other Green Lanterns, Sinestro's dictatorship was exposed and he was forced to appear before the Guardians for punishment. -Wikipedia
