I've had these ideas for a while now, and I'd like to share them for no reason, I guess.

JESUS CHRIST vs. SIDDHARTHA GAUTAMA (BUDDHA) - Messiah figures who were once humans with some level of grace, elevated to (debatable) status as gods. Well known and respected even by those not of their prominent faiths. I would prefer that Jesus be played by Danny Sexbang, probably because it would be cool to see collaboration between NSP and the Epic Rap Battle team. Ninja Brian could just play God, which would consist of just a toga and a fake beard over the ninja outfit. Don't know what to do with Buddha. Find an Indian dude to be accurate.

COUNT DRACULA vs. DIO BRANDO - Famous vampires, with incredibly different powers/origins/source material. They also have sons with (debatably) good alignments (Giorno Giovanna and Alucard). It would be cool to see NicePeter and EpicLloyd have to read JJBA for research and thus integrate references to it into future battles. As long a Dio has that smooth Tim Curry-esque voice made popular by JJBATAS, by Antfish. Drac could take cues from the novel and from Castlevania. NicePeter could make a good Dracula, and Dio could be someone like Markiplier in a musclesuit.

DARTH VADER (ROUND 3 (FOR REAL THIS TIME)) vs. BIG BOSS (MGS) - Both characters are basically the modern definition of modern tragic hero in the literary sense (noble man falls from grace due to own flaws, repents as their world crumbles, to little avail). Both are cybernetically enhanced in order to functionally live (robot hand vs. Vader's entire suit). Both are fought and beaten by their own sons, both incidentally created some kind of evil organization as well as a villain with a very unhealthy fixation on them even though they're dead (Liquid/Solidus/Ocelot vs. Kylo Ren). Very similar. MGSV is fairly recent-ish, and ERB hasnt tapped into the fucking lore in-joke heaven that is the plot of Metal Gear. Plus, with all the new information regarding Part VII, and not having tapped into the really dumb specifics of the sadly non-canon EU (see: Light Dark Vader and/or Palpatine Surgical Reconstruction Center). Egoraptor does a great David Hayter impression, and can rap as Snake (see: Starbomb - The Simple Plot of Metal Gear Solid).

GABE NEWELL vs. HIDEO KOJIMA - Incredibly influential Game Developers and leaders of their own studio. Left their original studio (either willingly or by force) and made it big on their own. Both have sweet glasses, and are treated as memetic gods within their own respective communities (Lord Gaben/PC Master Race vs. Kojima World Order). There's a lot you could do with this. If the idea directly above this won't work, go different. EpicLloyd or Rocco Botte (Mega64) as Gabe Newell. Gabe has Portal, TF2 (Hat jokes, never gets old, right??(?)), and Counter Strike (I'm thinking of a bit where Gabe Newell calls himself the Trap(per) King, because he gets filthy rich off of selling skins), while Kojima has Metal Gear, Silent Hills, Snatcher.

I can accept criticsm. Criticism and comments are welcome, verily.
