I was kidding, and don't hate on Cloud.
...And we all know it's true, too.

Cameras and monitors whirled around a huge, flowery garden in the middle of the gigantic floating ship that made up the great city of Shevat. L stood on his platform, but no combatants had arrived yet.
"The next battle will be between Link and Cloud," he began.
As he spoke, two figures burst in from either side of the field.
One combatant was riding a horse at full gallop, a silver shield with a mirror sheen in one hand and a long sword that blazed in the sunlight raised high in the air. On his hands three golden triangles stacked upon each other were clearly visible, one of the triangles glowing with its own soft light. He wore a soft green tunic and a white hose, as well as a green cap that fluttered in the air like a pennon.
The revving of a motorcycle echoed throughout the battlefield, and young man with spikey blond hair, a trailing black half-cloak, black shirt, and black leather pants emerged on a sleek, black motorcycle. The motorcycle was open in the front, and four sword hilts protruded from it.
Both combatants circled the battlefield, before coming to a stop on either end.
"Link rides his horse, Epona, to this battle and Cloud rides his motorcycle, Fenrir," L said. "Begin."
Cloud drew a large sword from one of the motorcycle holsters, its blade open in two prongs with a steel bar connecting them. Raising his sword in his left hand and bracing his shield, Link spurred Epona onward as Cloud charged with his motorcycle. Extending his right arm, Cloud held his sword out in an attempt to clothesline Link and remove him from his horse.
Link raised his shield and brought his sword in low, holding it out under his right arm. As they passed each other, he twisted his shield, deflecting Cloud's sword upward and slashed outward with his sword.
The blade came within milimeters of Cloud's chest as he quickly twisted out of the way, guiding Fenrir away from Link.
As they parted, Link sheathed his sword with a fluid motion and withdrew a bow, seemingly from below his tunic although it was unsure how, exactly, he carried it.
Knocking an arrow from a quiver that seemed to appear on his back when he needed it, he drew a bead on Cloud as Cloud spun Fenrir around for another sweep. The arrow became sheathed in light, and when Link released it it arced through the air like a bolt of lightning, slamming into Fenrir's polished front shield and exploding, causing the motorcycle to waver precariously as Cloud moved to right it.
Drawing another arrow, Link fired again and this time Cloud brought his sword forward to protect the motorcycle. The arrow slammed into the huge blade and exploded, causing the motorcycle to waver a bit, but not as much.
As Link wheeled Epona around for a second charge, he put his bow away, which seemed to sink mysteriously into his tunic. From the same tunic he withdrew a massive sword, thinner than Cloud's sword but much longer, easily around 6 feet tall.
As he charged forward, he gripped the blade in both hands and swung it at Cloud, just as Cloud swung his own blade at him.
The swords clashed with great force, but the momentum caused them to slide apart without either combatant being unseated.
Sheathing his blade, Link reached into his tunic and withdrew a white, winged boomerang, which he hurled at Cloud.
The boomerange tore through the landscape, leaving a stream of poweful wind in its wake. Cloud turned just in time to have the boomerang slam into his chest and knocking him back, throwing off the balance of the motorcycle.
Link withdrew his bow and shot two more arrows of light at the motorcycle's tires, causing it to buck and jolt erratically.
Cloud twisted his body as the boomerang flew back to Link's hand and jumped off the motorcycle as it skidded to a stop on the ground.
Pulling on Epona's reins, Link also dismounted, putting away his boomerang and drawing his sword and shield once more.
Cloud opened up Fenrir, removing all of his swords and putting them together, fastening them until they made up one huge blade.
Gripping it in both hands, he charged forward as Link did the same.
Cloud swung his sword in a low arc, but a quick backflip by Link brought him easily over the blade's slash without suffering a scratch. Because his blade was so massive, Cloud couldn't halt the momentum as Link pressed an attack, thrusting forward with his sword.
Cloud leaned back as he attempted to recover his blade, but Link took another step forward and spun around, his sword extended.
A burst of magical energy flew from his blade and slammed into Cloud, knocking him backward.
Coughing and clutching his chest, Cloud gripped his blade and rose to his feet as Link slowly advanced on him.
Fixing Link with a blazing glare, Cloud slashed his sword outward just as Link brought his sword down in an open position and the form of the three triangles appeared behind him.
Cloud's sword split into several pieces, all of which surrounded Link. Gripping his sword, he rushed forward to slash at Link.
Link's own blade moved swiftly to intercept the attack, the triforce shining brightly behind him.
Several times Cloud dashed forward, slashing with one of his blades. Each time Link deflected it with his own slash.
With the final attack, Link took the offensive.
He and Cloud exchanged vicious slashes back and forth, their blades arcing and rebounding faster than the eye could follow. Using his shield, Link broke Cloud's guard and surged forward, slashing several successive times at Cloud's exposed chest before sending him flying with a well placed thrust. As he slashed, the triforce seemed to encircle Cloud, binding his body in place so that he could receive the full punishment of the attack.
Cloud skidded across the ground before laying still, blood pouring from several gaping wounds on his chest.
Link flicked the blood from his blade and sheathed it, wiping sweat from his brow.
"Link is the winner," L announced.
The next battle is between Dante and Illidan Stormrage. It will take place in the Tower of Babel. The fight will be posted on Saturday or Sunday.

Also, I will be holding other tournaments where people build original characters in between the game-centric ones. People can use their money to build characters.
The first tournament I'll be holding will be the Modern Fantasy tournament in Zaldyran. It'll be linked to when this thread becomes closed, and more information on character construction will be given when it's time for the tournament. The tournament will take place in the interim between the Hero brackets and the Villain brackets. The original character tournament after that will be the Fantasy tournament in Imara, after which I'll probably hold the Doubles Hero tournament. After that is the Mecha original tournament, Doubles Villain Bracket, and then back to Zaldyran. This is all contingent upon if people stay interested in it and keep betting, and it will happen over the course of several years at the rate these fights are getting posted.
