I guess for Rival Schools I should have went with this one or this one but I'm just partial to Gorin's theme.

Scars of Time - Awesome track!! Unique and cool.
Gorin High Theme - Fun beat.
Star Observatory C - Not the greatest song ever, but gets stuck in my head easily.
One Who Gets In Our Way - Not a favorite, but interesting enough.

1. Scars of Time (One of my top 10 favorite video game tunes ever)
2. Star Observatory C (Does a wonderful job of just capturing the magical tone of that game)
3. One Who Gets in Our Way (Very good, but I love the above two songs)
4. Gorin High School

Exactly as listed in the match-up post.

I've never heard such a boring Mario soundtrack before. The rest are pretty good, though. Rival Schools' track is kind of fun, though not the type of thing to pump me up for a fighting game. The one from Chrono Cross is unconventional for video game music, which apparently is sin to most people on this board, but it's actual good music (which is what I care about), so I ranked it 2nd, and the Xenonlade one was the most entertaining one to me, as that's music that actually gets me excited to play a game.

Interestingly enough, I've never played any of these games before (save for bits and pieces of SMG), so I can say that this is a 100% unbiased opinion on my part.
damn, I thought the Mario one would be the best one. Well, let me form my own opinion since I'm listening to it now.

The Mario one was alright. Anyway, pass. I'll be ending this round in a few minutes so everyone better get their vote in asap.

Speaking of the Mario theme, I'm flipping my top two, if only because I really like it and it'll probably lose this match anyway.

New list.

1. Star Observatory C (Does a wonderful job of just capturing the magical tone of that game)
2. Scars of Time (One of my top 10 favorite video game tunes ever)
3. One Who Gets in Our Way (Very good, but I love the above two songs)
4. Gorin High School

This is a hard one for me.  :P

1. Donkey Kong Country 2 - Hot Head Bop
My favorite David Wise track.

2. Donkey Kong Country: Tropical Freeze - Alpine Incline (Ground)
One of the best Tropical Freeze tracks.

3. Mega Man 9 - Tornado Man
This was THE theme of Mega Man 9. Well deserved.

4. Pokemon Emerald - Rayquaza Battle
It's going up against those three, unfortunately.
