Which side would win?
忽见柳荫下两个小孩子在哀哀痛哭,瞧模样正是武敦儒、武修文兄弟。郭芙大声叫道:「喂,你们在干甚麽?」武 修文回头见是郭芙,哭道:「我们在哭,你不见麽?」
either XF and Z3F win be able to defeat ZWJ and team up on GJ. GJ is good but against the mighty XF plus Z3F he is dead meat
ZWJ is more of a burden than help, even i cant help GJ here

8 to 0? What a lopsided ratio!
And yet, Zhang "Loser... I mean Let's settle this peacefully" Wuji was the MOST loved character in the Condor Trilogy! Maybe this is his unlucky day, where his supporters are all dormant.

Well Xiao Feng wasn't included in that particular most loved character thread, and I'm sure if you asked most people who they liked better between Xiao Feng and Zhang Wuji, I think you'd get a pretty straight-forward answer.
Guo Xiang is also a fan favorite, but no one would give her much of a chance against XF or ZSF.
I'm just telling you the opinion that is generally accepted. And since it is generally accepted, I was just surprised that it is not reflected well here.
I didn't say one has to support the one he likes (although many do), but 8:0 is a staggering ratio, don't you think?More importantly, the analogy indicates the fallacy in the line of thinking that fan-favorite would mean support in the belief of who is superior.

Eh? Just because you like a character doesn't necessarily make you think he's the strongest etc.
I happen to _like_ YG. But most of the time I'm deconstructing arguments for his supposed undisputed superiority at the end of ROCH.
Zhang Wuji had a history of underperforming aganst fighters whom we know to be weaker or even much weaker than him. Xiao Feng is described by the author as overperforming and overcoming fighters who were stated to be more powerful than him. What do you expect?
Read the latest chapters of Coiling Dragon at Wuxia World!
Guo Jing can outlast Zhang Sanfeng who is considerably older.
Zhang Wuji's QKDNY and Tai Chi should be able to hold Xiao Feng at bay until Guo Jing defeats Zhang Sanfeng. Then GJ and ZWJ can polish off Xiao Feng.

I don't think the two teams balance well.
Kiu Fung + Cheung Mo Gei
vs.
Gwok Jing + Cheung 3 Fung
That would be a better balance.
That would actually be pretty interesting.
Will GJ's stamina make up for ZSF's age? Will XF's competence compensate for ZWJ's underachieving?
I give it to XF and Z3F simply because ZWJ would not have the heart to fight his tai shifu.
That's along the lines of what I was thinking.
By combining Gwok Jing and Cheung Mo Gei, you have an automatic handicap on the team because you're pairing up two guys who are reluctant to go all out or hurt anyone. Gwok Jing doesn't take it to the extremes that Cheung Mo Gei does, but both would fall into the realm of "non-aggressive" combatants (which sounds like an oxymoron, I know, but you all get what I mean).
On the other side, you have Kiu Fung, who is aggression personified in the Jin Yong universe. Cheung 3 Fung is also a rather non-aggressive type (though again, not at Cheung Mo Gei's extremes), but won't be able to offset the huge disparity in ferocity created by Kiu Fung's presence.
Cheung Mo Gei's pacifity balances out well with Kiu Fung's ultra-aggressiveness, whereas Gwok Jing and Cheung 3 Fung are both mild and thus, form a natural balance.
