Description "You know the thing about mirror matches is that well....as much it's a fun but odd challenge to test yourself against someone whose as strong or skilled as you....it WAS going to be a matter of time before it gets way out of hand with too many clones and too many broken mirrors and just the stale synchronization."
~Kamui, lampshading a familiar take of a mirror match

Kudos to that I have to more or less address this well.....trope of mine once again, and no it's not a......crave like another trope in mind, okay it is but not in THAT way. But namely the art and trope of the mirror match, and by extension fearful symmetry. Namely...yes the DrawVerse has the "running gag" of the mirror match and how almost if not all of DrawVerse heroines have to deal with said mirror matches, whenever it's old vs new(She-ra or Allura) or a lookalike clone(WW and CM), it is a thing that would test said heroine in well everything, whenever it's strength, beauty or character it is one that proves a character's worth, especially for some, doppelgangers do mean death...however it comes at a few...drawbacks, namely if the DV is hogwild with mirror matches, then the development would kind of get stagnant for the character in mind, furthermore it kind of crowds too much by crossover standards(why else did I retcon focusing on a pair of twin Corrins to the lady Kamui/Corrin).

What's more, as much I do like to see old and new get along....NOT all clones are people, or rather good people at best, and some will attempt to either replace or take the original one's life for more malicious means, so some if not any more clones have to be checked if not judged....furthermore, UNLIKE a certain horni outcast of the crossover community, I AM aware about the more.....overly-lustful and honestly, "problamatic" cases of taking "loving one's self" to the max(if you know what I mean, you know, but don't look it too much in tvtropes)....after all, as a certain sniper could say "Professionals have standards" so yes while it is a thing, it's NOT going to be a very common thing, let alone one that can be passed off, but it is one that can happen if said original or another version can live in peace or such, because again unlike the Horni, I am well aware and smart enough enough to reconsider this trope at play, so therefore it's not going to be all focused on catfights and mirror matches 24/7, let alone double ko mirror matches, some will have or get a victor now and often. 

FURTHERMORE, this kind of mirror match ONLY goes into play if a character has a divergent enough take say having a AU doppelganger that can be used temporarily, or a series revelant enough to have two versions of them inhabiting the same world, or ones that have experience with clones in different installments, etc. So in that case, No clones of Darkstalkers Felicia or such in the Verse, however some say Garnet's clone COULD work, but still not fully canon say like some ocs for now.
