With pockets full of tokens and something to prove, it's time to show these Northforest kids who's boss.
You need to win three matches of the fighting game in a row - anything less is declared a tie.
To win, you'll need to hope that the character you've picked is strong against your opponent's.
You're right, it is! The characters that the Northforest kids choose is also randomised.
To 'win' this 'puzzle', you basically need to trial-and-error the character match ups.
Sort of - they do have a tell, but it only appears if you pick characters impatiently.
Eager to win, the Northforest boys will have time to plan a strategy against you if you're quick to choose a character.
If you pick a character super quickly, they'll choose a character that is strong against you.
You can use this information to your advantage, but it'll take a while to remember each match up.
See the quickhint for a helpful image - the arrows show which character will lose (red) and which character will win (green) in a fight.

When you've won your third match in a row, their tickets will be yours!
By exchanging the tickets for wire cutters, you can finally free that spool of tin from the junkyard!
Repairs on Ralf can then begin - just don't forget to combine the tin with the empty solder gun first.
