Competitive balance is a concept used for good game making in multiplayer, player versus player games where different characters have different stats.
Basically, no single character type will be better than the other character types.
So if the character types are warrior, archer, and mage, a game that maintains competitive balance will have archers beat mages, mages beat warriors, and warriors beat archers for example.
Note that this is a generalized concept. An archer could theoretically beat a warrior in a fight in the above example, but generally, warriors will have the advantage over archers.
Also known as Elemental Rock Paper Scissors when elements are involved.

Get the Competitive mug.An alternative way to perform a staring competition, typically done in right wing member's only clubs in Texas to test a man's heterosexuality. If a man is suspected to be gay, the most dominant male in the group will dip his balls in baby powder and press them against the suspect's forehead for 10-20 seconds depending on the severity of the suspicions. if the suspect blinks within the time, the dominant male's powdered balls will be dipped in his mouth until he sucks all of the disgusting powder off and his membership will be permanently revoked.
