If we are talking solely about the games and not the consequences, then how many tasks would you have survived in Squid Game
? IMO, I would have made it through all the rounds except for the Tug Of War—never enjoyed this one. Alright, I confess that I’m being a little over-confident because that creepy doll in yellow dress is not over my head right now (IYKYK). But, she did play the lethal game with Seong Gi‑Hun and surprisingly, he still won the tournament!
Well, after binge-watching the entire season in one go, a crazy thought struck my head—what if the show was made in an alternate universe and different fictional characters participated in it?
Honestly, if these seven players had been a part of Squid Game, they would have easily won all the tasks and gone home with that insane prize money. Scroll ahead to know the popular fictional characters we’re talking about.
7 Famous Fictional Characters Who Might Consider Squid Games A Child’s Play
We’re convinced that these famous fictional characters can win Squid Game easily. They are ridiculously smart, brutal, manipulative and true survivors. However, we do wish that they never enter the game together—that would be a disaster.
Hermione Granger (Harry Potter)
Once Hermione Granger figures out that the tournament is about a series of children’s games played in South Korea, there will be no stopping her. She will surely do a thesis on every Korean game that ever existed, its tricks and hacks, and mug up every little detail about it. Also, she won’t even need magic for this.
Petyr Baelish (Game Of Thrones)
Petyr Baelish knows how to survive in hostile situations and we expect him to do the same in Squid Game as well. From forming strong alliances to backstabbing them when required, this man can do it all. Also, he’s quite intelligent and we can expect him to pull out information from the red suit soldiers easily.
Komolika (Kasautii Zindagi Kay)
Komolika might not be the most intelligent player on the list, but she’s defs one of the most manipulative ones. This iconic vamp knows how to take advantage of a situation and crack deals with people that would later bite them in the back. We totes expect her to spread her evil magic in Squid Game as well.
Sheldon Cooper (Big Bang Theory)
Sheldon Cooper can ace all the tasks like every other science project and we have no two doubts about it. He may end up pointing out all the technical flaws in the game and assisting the makers to run the tournament smoothly and better. He may even get an award for it.
Sherlock Holmes (Sherlock)
Sherlock Holmes will not just win Squid Game, but he will also bring down the entire tournament for good. He will observe every minute detail about the frontman, red suit soldiers, tasks, fellow contestants and even that creepy doll. Later, he will use them all to brilliantly put an end to the madness.
Vishakha (Naagin)
Even if we take away her power to shape-shift, we think Vishakha will snake her way through the entire tournament and reach the very end. She can mercilessly eradicate people (read obstacles) from her path and she can lie with her teeth.
Maya
Apart from the fact that she can kill anyone who comes in her way, she’s also extremely smart. She can predict her opponents’ moves fifty steps in advance and cover all her loopholes. We think that’s the kind of strategy that will win her the prize money in Squid Game.
So fam, whom do you think could have been a solid player in Squid Game?
