mirror match
Same versus same
A mirror match is a competition where both sides use the same character, team, deck, or strategy.
The term comes from fighting games, where selecting the same fighter means facing a mirror image of yourself.
It tests pure skill since neither player has a strategic advantage from their choice: Mirror matches in Street Fighter come down to who knows the character better.
