@theDipDap well Jacques seems pretty dumb ;) I'm not claiming that they're the same as Tinka and Gunther they just remind me of them, it's that I've seen the competitive athletic villain duo (with foreign heritage) and no personality aside from being competitive athletic villains before. Often, and I've never liked it. So that worries me.

All antagonists in essence do the same stuff: sabotage, manipulate, make alliances,... . But there's often a certain aspect that makes them special and unique.

Justin was a villain newbie, somebody who just started to explore his dark side along with us. Courtney was a dictator, her lawyers granted her an amount of power that put her above the others and provided her the liberty to change the rules of the game whenever she wanted. Owen was a mole, inspired by the popular show. Sugar is stuck in a pageant queen mentality and applied those rules and customs to the TD game. Scarlett wasn't interested in the game she was looking for an alternative, faster, easier way to get the money (by blackmail), Al had a very specific focus on flirtation and manipulation, Scott had an "interesting" tactic of sabotaging his own team. Heather ... was kind of just a regular villain but she was first so get's away with it. Mal was an internal villain, personal struggle, a mental disorder that had to be fought. -> I'm not saying that all of these where good concepts or well executed. But at least they're all original.

I'm not looking forward to one of the most cliché and unoriginal villain tropes used in the most cliché and unoriginal way. Though to be fair TD has a tendency to take overdone cliché characters and use them in unexpected ways so I'm hoping RR continues that trend. I really, really hope that they'll prove me wrong and this duo turns out to be amazing... or filler.
