Since it rarely goes to a tie, I'm putting in my votes now:

 

Terry Bogard (Fatal Fury) vs. Scorpion (Mortal Kombat)

 

Terry blocks, ducks...does anything that doesnt involve just staring there blankly to avoid the spear and plows through Scrubion with a buster wolf. I would rather have had heichachi get this far than Scorpion. After the novelty wears off all your left with is a pitifull move set.

 

Winner: Terry "the original king of fighters" Bogard

 

Kibagami Genjuro (Samurai Showdown) vs. Sagat (Street Fighter)

 

Tough choice...very tough choice...both top designs and good moves...*flips a coin*

 

Winner: Genjuro

 

Ken Masters (Street Fighter) vs. Ryu (Street Fighter)

 

I've said this many times, Ken is simply better than Ryu. The whole "original" concept isnt really valid since they both originated from street fighter. Hell Ken was so damn near invincible in SF turbo capcom had to tone down his shoryuken for SSF2. The alpha series is possibly the only set of SF games where Ryu and Ken could be considered an even match to each other. Then come the SF3 games, a game which cripples the Ryu player since all his moves are single hits, making him easy parry fodder where Ken's multi-hit attacks make him much more difficult to parry.

 

...I think I'm done now

 

Winner: Ken Masters

 

Iori Yagami (King of Fighters) vs. Haohmaru (Samurai Showdown)

 

Another tough one...the laugh, the pants and maiden masher wins here.

 

Winner: Iori Yagami

[Guest CED Ordonez]

Terry Bogard (Fatal Fury) vs. Scorpion (Mortal Kombat)

 

Ced's vote goes to: Terry Bogard to eliminate Team Mortal Kombat from the fray. Though I plan on jobbing him out to the deep uppercutting glory that is Sagat next round, 'Gade.

 

Kibagami Genjuro (Samurai Showdown) vs. Sagat (Street Fighter)

 

Ced's vote goes to: Sagat. Fear the scar. Fear the eyepatch. Fear the TIGER UPPERCUT~!

 

Ken Masters (Street Fighter) vs. Ryu (Street Fighter)

 

Ced's vote goes to: Ken Masters. He is the Kurt Angle to Ryu's Chris Benoit. Ryu's great but Ken is a total package and has charisma to boot.

 

Iori Yagami (King of Fighters) vs. Haohmaru (Samurai Showdown)

 

Ced's vote goes to: Iori Yagami. OH GOD~! Really painted myself into a corner here. By keeping Sagat in my voting sheet, I have to be a political bastard and potentially eliminate one of the SNK factions from the tournament. I sigh defeated and give the nod to Iori Yagami which will give me an even harder choice between him and Ken in the semi-final round. Woe is me...

YES!! Ken is winning!!

[Guest Mr. X]

Terry Bogard vs. Scorpion - Scorpion Scorpion wins this because I despise Terry Bogard. Kim Kaphwan owns his ass.

 

Kibagami Genjuro vs. Sagat - Sagat Sagat is just too cool to lose.

 

Ken Masters vs. Ryu - Ryu Ryu wins cause I prefer him over Ken. Fei Long, the Bruce Lee clone, is my favorite Streetfighter character though.

 

Iori Yagami vs. Haohmaru - Iori Yagami You've got to give it to one of the most identifiable SNK characters ever.
