Match

What is this?

Match is a major character in EBCGD. She was a female contestant in Battle for Dream Island Again, IDFB, and Battle for BFDI. Match was a semi-antagonist in BFDIA. She was eliminated from Team No-Name in BFDIA 5a, but Pencil saved her from the TLC. She participated on the team FreeSmart until she was sent to the TLC in BFDIA 5e. Between BFDIA 5e and EBCGD Comic 1, though, she managed to escape the TLC again.

She is part of the alliance with Bubble and Pencil, although Ruby, Book, Ice Cube, and Pencil 1 Polandball joined later. Together, the team is the main focus of EBCGD.

Appearance
Match appears to be a matchstick. Her flammable part is red, and her wooden part is beige.

Personality
Match has the personality of a stereotypical teenage girl and is friendly to some contestants, but mean to some others. She has an unbreakable bond with Pencil, as she never argues with her, she calls her nicknames, and they seem to have been friends with each other before BFDI started. However, with other contestants, she is very harsh, judgmental, and seems to disrespect them; this is further supported  when she insulted and kicked Book and Ice Cube, the "alternates", out of  her alliance, and she has a long aversion towards Spongy. Nevertheless, she does have a kinder side to her teammates, alliance members and everyone, and will do anything to lead them in the right direction.

Her most disliked player is Spongy, as seen in early episodes of BFDI. This was the reason why Germanyball picked him in Match vs. Polandball. She feels he smells bad and is too overweight.

Season 1
In FreeSmart, she battles Dr. Eggman after he captures Pencil and Bubble. It takes 3 years before they reach Neptune, where Pencil and Bubble are saved.

In Match vs. Polandball, she scanned Polandball, becoming Match Polandball (MP). She gets caught by Polandball, being flung into the air, until being saved by Pencil and landing on Polandball’s favorite pillow. She gets a new ally and later, she is seen counting, until a Strawberry lands in BG’s eye (after Jusi apologizes to her). The next day, she is surprised to see two Pencils, and faints. They both say “Press the button, and you’ll be pretty.” She does, and becomes a Match with “a reversed rounded Poland flag”.

 * Match is the only contestant that got eliminated and then had a chance of returning in the same episode, and in Get in the Van, Match joined FreeSmart but was considered eliminated, which means she rejoined in the episode she was eliminated.

 * This is also the case with Ruby, who sounded different from when she appeared in Reveal Novum.
