A pity win is when a character is put up against another character who is far weaker in order to let a fanbase have a win.
The factors include:
>character A is far beyond character B
>character A may need scaling or composite in order to win
>character A may have a whiny fanbase that Death Battle doesn't want to deal with
>character A's verse is on a losing streak
Ryuko vs Shadow is a good example.
