(4)Leon Kennedy vs (15)Albert Wesker vs (24)Oliver 2013

Ulti's Analysis
Resident Evil fans were upset at this match for the same reason Fox fans were upset at his draw. Wesker could have drawn 242 opponents, and he gets Leon Scott Kennedy in round 1. There was mild upset buzz, but then people realized that hero > villain almost always on this site. I can't even think of an example that proves otherwise offhand except for maybe Final Fantasy X, and even there I'm not totally sold on Jecht not being able to beat Tidus. Then again that game has multiple villains that we can't really discuss without getting into major spoiler territory, so we'll drop that one.

Seriously, I can't think of any without really stretching the rules or using FPS games as examples. Yeah you get Bioshock and Portal, but no one identifies with the main characters of those games. The fact we'd have to think long and hard about a non-FPS character who could beat their villain shows how screwed Wesker was, then the match started and Resident Evil fans wanted to forget about this as soon as possible.

I'm a Wesker fan. His Mercenaries theme in Resident Evil 4 might be the best gaming song ever.

He got absolutely f***ed in this contest. There is no other explanation. Stuff like this was bound to happen once or twice in such a massive field, but having it happen to Wesker just blew. And given Capcom is fully enthralled in ruining the Resident Evil series beyond repair (much like they do with every series they touch these days), he may never have another shot of making a deep contest run.
