start dropping suggestions for future topics, put them in spoilers though so we don't get people thinking too early, this is supposed to be kneejerk reactions.

The problem here is that 2013's existence means that there isn't exactly that many characters that missed this contest, but at least Banjo has Smash DLC to give him a second wind.

Strider came to mind first.

But Liquid would definitely be stronger than him and as a Golden Sun fan I sure would be interested in seeing where Felix stands now compared to Isaac.

Rikku for some reason, even if she has only missed one contest. Possibly as I remember she has a better record than Tidus, who always makes it (then chokes).
