BG1's "Round 1... FIGHT!" Edges:

Martial Arts Style: So yeah just by looking at the movesets for both these guys, I'm going to have to call it even to be honest - to me, Kazuya's Mishima Karate relies too much on the elements of defence and surprise while Scorpion's moves seem to be that good balance of offensive, defensive and tactical manoeuvres... but the guys below me are right in saying that Scorpion's moves rely too much on his weapons and magic but still, I'm sure those give Scorpion a bit of an advantage

EDGE: Even

Long Range: Devil Beam takes the win here since it's range is not as limited as the Kunais and yes it may seem like the kunais have more options to them being used to stab and slash but the devil beam packs some serious deadly punch to it

EDGE: Kazuya

Ultimate Form: Easily Kazuya's Devil form wins out here since that transformation gives him some really neat tactical advantages such as flight and a significant boost to his magical abilities which neatly counters Scorpion's enhanced strength

EDGE: Kazuya

X-Factors: Average of 92.5 for Scorpion, Average of 90 for Kazuya

EDGE: Scorpion

Overall Winner: While I am impressed by Scorpion's martial arts prowess and his unique fighting style mixing martial arts with supernatural powers, I will have to concur with all the other voters down below me and say that Kazuya takes this - to me I see one problem with Scorpion's style of fighting and its that he likes to fight dirty; he hates losing and will try to pull out all stops to ensure he wins. Kazuya's not afraid to fight dirty and yes his moveset may be more dependent upon the weaker skills of defence and surprise with his punishing moves but once he takes on his devilish form then Scorpion is toast since Demon Kazuya can simply shrug off Scorpion's attacks while (partly-mortal) Scorpion cannot shrug off Kazuya's devastating moves
