half_silver28 03/01/19 8:29:11 PM #11:	Metalmind called it out right away, the second match of Group 1 is: (8)Raiden vs (9) Sarah Kerrigan Raiden was an obvious inclusion here. His reveal as the protagonist of MGS2 was one of the most infamous moments in gaming, and his portrayal in the game was very polarizing and controversial. Not to mention the countless memes spawned from the game. He then became possibly THE redemption story of gaming. His redesign in MGS4 was positively received, and became an outright badss in Metal Gear Rising. Thanks to Platinum Games, of course. Kerrigan was another easy pick for the bracket. She's a PC game icon, and one of the best female villains in gaming. Her transformation from human hero to alien villain is iconic, as well as her merciless nature. And yet there is enough humanity remaining to suggest she can be redeemed. Her design is also iconic, being the poster girl for "evil is sexy". However, the bulk of Starcraft's popularity comes from its gameplay and not its story, which hinders Kerrigan's potential. And Starcraft has not had a lot of games on consoles either, which make it somewhat niche among western audiences. So despite the tragic fall of the Metal Gear series, Raiden won't have trouble winning this match. I would predict 57% for Raiden - he is just way more well-known among western gamers. As promised, I will start listing matches two at a time. The third match of Group 1 is: (5)Square vs (12)Konami The fourth match of Group 1 is: (4)Square vs (13)Capcom --- B8 Waifu ranking - http://pastebin.com/qnUpLnDA <cite>half_silver28 posted [p:918298817] in Most Influ...
