So, if we go by Shin Megami Tensei's rulebook, Callie is Chaos and Marie is Order.

I would say I would go for a Lawful Good vs. Chaotic Evil splatfest, but that was basically Autobots vs. Decepticons.

Although as long as we're doing the Hasbro product placement, I hope there's a GI Joe vs. Cobra one in our future.

What is the gameplay even like in those games? I just imagine a generic PSX platformer.

Basically this yeah. It's boring as poo poo if you're not 5.
The figurines are pretty good quality at least.

Wow I made someone so mad just now; I accidentally squidbagged a Level 50 kid when I got stuck in his ink and hit him with a panic Inkzooka. Well I guess he took it really personally 'cause from every match then on, he'd squidbag the hell out of me if he got me, which is fair enough.

But if we were on the same team, he'd just stay in spawn and not move an inch... unless I got splatted, then he'd spam Nice! and squidbag the second I respawned. This wasn't just one match mind you, but several.

Like holy hell, I've played TF2 since mid-2008 with 3000 hours and I've never had someone so salty that they'd actively not play the game to spite you.

Aww, that's harsh. What about Carl Sagan? Bill Nye? Neill DeGrass Tyson?

None of those count because they all cater to the crowd of people who worship a pop-culture view of science where they ooh and aww at pictures of space and memorize the digits of pi when they wouldn't have the stones for real science which involves collecting data, formulating a conclusion from it, and defending your conclusion from colleagues during a peer-review process.

Science owns but everyone knows real scientists are too drunk and busy for that XKCD or I loving Love Science clickbait pop science garbage

Edit: Not to slag on Carl Sagan, Neil Degrasse Tyson, or Bill Nye as they did/do a great job of educating kids and inspiring them to pursue science or engineering as careers, but by necessity their shows involved a level of entertainment and simplification not found in real science

Being excited about the results, promise, and mystery of science is part of science. Granted that Bill Nye didn't just quietly look through a microscope or run data analyses for 30 minutes, but that would have pretty well defeated the purpose of having a show. Every endeavour, absolutely including art, is often tedious to watch. The expression is "watching paint dry" not "watching astrophysicists correlate data points", after all.

I love both art and science but as an artist I must stand for my own. The fact we are probably going to lose is beautiful, artistically.

Basically what BattleMaster said. I love the pursuit of discovery. Science is cool and good, scientists are cool and good, but all the retards who treat science as some mystical totally-not-a-religion-you-guys and are real assholes about it will be on that team and I want nothing to do with them. Plus I'm a musician so that helps.

Also I'm thinking of Randall Monroe putting "not suitable for liberal arts majors" on his site. gently caress off, rear end in a top hat, you're not the intellect towering above us plebes you and your disciples think you are.

Sorry, I'll shut up now. Starting SplatFest arguments isn't fresh. Here, have a good Art that I did to support Team Art:
