Jak and Daxter vs Ratchet and Clank

Connections-wise it of course makes sense- the two series are similar in many ways and reference one another very often- but I think it's not a good match for Deathbattle.

1) BECAUSE they reference one another so often it sort of feels like they're the same series. It'd be like a Marvel character vs another Marvel character.

2) Because it's an ungodly stomp in favor of Ratchet- and I mean such a stomp that it's just a waste of a match to me. I personally like to at least be somewhat torn on who I think should win. When it's a "no-contest" match like that I think of it as a waste because there's no doubt as to the victor and so the animation is largely ruined. It's like watching a movie and knowing the ending.

3) Because Jak honestly is lacking in feats- meaning the few feats he has will have a bigger impact and subsequently it's likely they'll stretch further than normal to try and find something spectacular about them.

4) Because I have an annoying feeling the match would also include their sidekicks- which is (again) a stomp in favor of Ratchet and Clank as Daxter spends most of his games borderline helpless while Clank gets all manner of guns and power-ups in his own right.
