Well, what a surprise. First place. I honestly wasn't expecting that. I was thinking Sniper's pic would be first, even though there was the problem of the watermarks in the pic(which you would have noticed is the main reason why the framing is so off in my Carefree vs Serious pic. That's literally the only position where Sora's pic didn't have watermarks showing, and it pissed me so much when I was making it xD). And well, I really don't understand why the pic you chose wins against say, this: http://vignette2.wikia.nocookie.net/deathbattlefanon/images/e/ea/SoravsLink%28Aravy%29.png/revision/latest?cb=20160501135802 which is near perfect imo(even though there is the problem of Link's quality, but I think that's a drawing style, similar to my second TN's Sora), or this one: http://vignette1.wikia.nocookie.net/deathbattlefanon/images/f/f0/Link_vs_Sora.png/revision/latest?cb=20160501232402, which by the way I disagree with on the subject of Link's pic quality(I mean, it's obvious the Sora pic next to it is much worse). As for my Link pic, here it is: https://aninfinitespace.files.wordpress.com/2012/05/link.jpg. And you know what? I wasn't going for the "hero of light" theme, but quite the contrary, a "shadowy virtuous hero". The golden TN was merely my thoughts on how good of a match-up a fight can be. Gold goes to things like Season finales, premieres, BIG fights. Silver goes to good fights. And Red goes to fights I honestly couldn't give a fuck about would they actually happen. In rare cases, I use a specific colour to highlight a characteristic of either the match-up or one of the fighters(remember how I wish I could have used Silver instead of Gold for Madoka vs Sailor Moon?). Which also brings me to the point of choice of pics. I honestly think I made a terrible job at it. Imo, the first place you deserved has a horrid image comparison, and is the least good of the three in that regard. I especially didn't like Sora's pic, but since I didn't have anything else that fitted better, I had to go with that, as I didn't want to waste that Link pic. Glad that I got first place, but I honestly am concerned as to why(#GiveMeFirstPlaceSomewhereWhereIThinkIDeserveIt lol).
