Team Estelle's Argument:

You'd think Alucard and Link would know better than to walk straight into the lion's den. You'd be wrong. This couldn't be a more lopsided matchup if they were fighting with their hands behind their backs. Let's run down the list of advantages best boy and girl pack, hmm?

-First strike guaranteed. Joshua is an elite stealth operative. He managed to sneak past the Enforcers of the almighty Ouroboros organization, plant bombs all over their flagship skyship Glorious and bomb it to hell, then give their greatest combatant the slip. He's gonna see the opponents coming, come up with a trap, and lead off with a vicious ambush.

-Buff advantage: Joshua and Estelle have buffs to speed, strength, durability, and even one-shot physical attack immunity (which Link and Alucard specialize in). They have debuffs to all those things, too. Worse, their magic attacks passively dish out debuffs and they hit in a super wide area. They're going to stack the deck against each other massively and it's not gonna be pretty. Joshua's Master Quartz even inflicts automatic debuffs with attacks randomly, too! Oh, and they have healing to patch their own wounds. Alucard can lifesteal, but any damage dealt to Link stays, which is really not good for him.

-Terrain advantage: Le Locle has multiple excellent battlegrounds to pick fights in. The cramped fortress, the thick woods...Joshua and Estelle are pathfinders and they know the place well. They can prepare a brutal ambush and even split Link and Alucard up using the various control switches at the fort. Divide and conquer was pretty good shit, last I checked.

All told, there's just no chance of victory for Team Alucard. In an honest fight they might have a chance, but this is gonna be anything but honest. They know how to fight together and enable each other, they're on home turf, and all the intangibles point their way. It's not gonna go well for the invaders.
