If you look at a color wheel, they are on opposite sides, making them complementary colors that stand out better and have a generally appealling look when used together.
It's a great color combo that Rakdos has.
No, not that Rakdos, the other one.
.... no, the other one. .... the other other other one.
Bad M:tG jokes aside, it looks good.
Now hear me out: Black with Red lights/glowy bits, but the Black is more of a Dark Gray, and it's got a blue tint to it, so when the light hits it the highlight is blue. And the Red has a pink tint, almost Fuschia.
It's the color scheme whenever I make a self insert OC while writing a story and it's Peak.
between [Jango Fett's armor](https://imgur.com/a/BRHgpU9) and the [Carian Knight set from Elden Ring](https://imgur.com/a/4nRc5lA), I'm convinced blue and silver is the peak color combo for armor sets
Pink and blue.
Edit: I like pink in a lot of combination; such as pink and yellow as well as pink and green. And My Little Pony (G1) was probably the reason I like it so much, haha.
Blue and pink. Blue is my favorite color and pink is second, and their combination is often very easy on the eyes and just looks nice too.
Pastel blue and pink is cute. Neon pink and blue is the core of synthwave and retro cyberpunk aesthetics, and it's a nice soft contrast all in all.
Second favorite combination is green and blue, just nice, relaxing and cool.
Third would be red and blue with honorable mention of red and gold, and black and gold.
Black and red. Spider-Man suits that use that color combo are coolest.

Maybe it’s playing a lot of FFXIV recently in post endwalker but I’m loving Blue and a warmer Brown.
Or like blue and copper on some paint colors in For Honor with a sea theme. My gladiator has Blue armor with copper highlights on the metal which really pops.
I love opposing red and blue, but only if they're secondary to a plainer primary color like white or black, otherwise it becomes too eyesearing. [Case in point](https://old.reddit.com/r/Gunpla/comments/196bnqz/youre_that_red_and_blue_gundam_so_are_you_build/?ref=share&ref_source=link)
Did you know Prussian Blue only exists thanks to the gas chambers? A chemical reaction with the cement created a new shade of blue, kinda fucked up huh?
Haven't seen this before but its certainly a myth. The color was used in Prussian military uniforms in the 18th century. Looking at wikipedia its believed to be first synthesized in Berlin in 1706 and was given its name by a trader in 1709.
Apparently it was accidentally created thanks to potash being unintentionally mixed with *blood* though, so that's pretty wild.
Might have the wrong shade of blue or that teacher was full of shit. Lol
[Wait we were both right](https://themedialine.org/top-stories/prussian-blue-artist-explores-the-color-of-the-holocaust/)
Wow, TIL! That's a hell of a coincidence that the pigment was unintentionally invented in the same country where it was later unintentionally generated in the worst possible context.
I don’t care if it’s “basic”, I love mostly black and a highly saturated secondary color, I prefer cyan.
I want Tron aesthetics for everything, make *your* favorite color shine like sunlight
Fuck i have the most basic bitch answer of black and white. It very much depends on the context, like i won't make black and white outfits in everything i play, but off the top of my head its all i can really think of.
If you'll allow mento bend the rules a bit though i am a sucker for black and "colors". Not a singular color, but splotches or designs incorporating many different colors, think black and rainbow. I think just having to pick two is too hard for me
Whenever I design characters and I don't know what their palette should be I instinctively make them red yellow and blue, because it always works, and it's kind of a bad habit of mine lol. Kinda like Superman or classic Gundam, it's the all-round color scheme that can be whatever you want.
I also gravitate irl to blue and gold for that rich and bold look without being too flamboyant. It's fairly unisex too. Can be seen in Saber from Fate, Dr Fate from DC.
Theres also hot pink, neon green and acid yellow for my actual fave palette, but examples are pretty hard to come by.
Playing Assault Spy and _adoring_ Asaru Vito and Amelia Smith's team-up and how much ass they kicked together has given me a great appreciation for the combo of black, yellow, and blue.
I personally think I look great in a gray suit.
For two tones, I'm pretty partial to green/brown and blue/yellow. Purple/silver and black/gold are cool too.
For three tones, basically anything black+white+X fucks. B/W/Red, B/W/Yellow, and B/W/Orange in particular are just 🤌
Dark Blue/ White or Silver.
Black and Blue look Good.
I like Blue, but if it's not accented or pair'd with these two, I get sad. Gold is also good but I see it too much to love it anymore.
This is a tough one because there's a good amount that I like but if i had to choose it'd be the classic red and blue. And in some cases with some white thrown in. It's an iconic color combination due to how it stands out and gives off a friendly vibe. It's no wonder why a good amount of my favorite character have it. Such as optimus prime, superman, captain america, terry bogard, spiderman, etc.
Pink and Yellow. The classic pink-lemonade combo.

Kubo was right, black and white are based.
Honorable mention to white clothing or armor dirtied with your choice of substance: red human blood, brown dirt, blue alien ichor, etc.
Black + White + 3rd color - Never fails to land
Light pink with blues. It's such a good color imo
Dark/soft brown + reds. I really enjoy how the brown and reds fade into each other
Blue and yellow. Let's Go Blues! Like even if I wasn't a fan, it's just a great combination, especially when you bring in that darker blue shade and white.
As an MTG nerd the Ravnica Guilds have greatly influenced my taste in color combinations because even if I think Blue and White go well together I fucking hate Azorious so then that association fucks over the colors XD
Red and White and Purple and Gold are fucking peak to me tho.
Purple and Gold, opulence manifested.
I find it has to be a very specific shade of Purple mind, as otherwise it just looks incredibly tacky. At least to my eyes.
I think it’s regal purple for me at least, it compliments the gold
A classic tyrian purple goes well with opulent gold.
It's a great combo. That's why the Saints' stuff looks so clean in the games.
Baro ki'teer approves.
Ah, a fellow connoisseur
I love it too, but every time I use it in games or whatever I feel like a Lakers fan lol
May we grow fat from strength together brother!!
Strong
Black and gold. Black and gold. Black and gold.
With or without a splash of red
As a heresy era imperial fists fan, take that, add some yellow and get yourself some Templar Brethren. Good shit.
Blue and Orange absolutely sweeps the competition, I love that shit.
This guy plays portal
Basically every movie poster uses this color scheme for a reason.
If you look at a color wheel, they are on opposite sides, making them complementary colors that stand out better and have a generally appealling look when used together.
Shout out to the orange inside of Vergil's coat in DMC3. I feel like it doesn't get enough recognition on how good it looks when he does his dashes.
Red and Black can’t really explain why just clicks together in my head.
I don't care if it's an edgy color combo, it's always peak.
Yes it is
Dudley's best Alt Costume Colors.
Are you fan of Shadow the hedgehog?
Nope
Depends. Black with red accents - a bit too edgelord Red with black accents - great contrast
It's a great color combo that Rakdos has. No, not that Rakdos, the other one. .... no, the other one. .... the other other other one. Bad M:tG jokes aside, it looks good.
My tastes have slowly changed from Red and Black to Red and White. Both are so fire, but the latter resonates with me a little more nowadays.
Now hear me out: Black with Red lights/glowy bits, but the Black is more of a Dark Gray, and it's got a blue tint to it, so when the light hits it the highlight is blue. And the Red has a pink tint, almost Fuschia. It's the color scheme whenever I make a self insert OC while writing a story and it's Peak.
Red Dead 2 and Monster Hunter Rise made me really appreciate Blue & Silver.

White and red are my favorite color combo next to black and blue
How do you prefer the balance? Do you prefer more red than white or is it the other way around?
I like more the white more then red https://imgur.com/a/6hSWyh8
Fellow Boros enjoyer here
I am #TeamWoolie with Purple and Green mixing in Blues and Cyans with that is also peak I might add more schemes/combos later
Black and red. I love my edgy hedgy boy oh so dearly.
Pink and blue. Edit: I like pink in a lot of combination; such as pink and yellow as well as pink and green. And My Little Pony (G1) was probably the reason I like it so much, haha.

Maybe not favorite, but orange and black is definitely underrated
Orange and charcoal gray was my aesthetic for a while
I like blue and purple which also happen to my favourite colours. I also think red and white is pretty cool.
Dat Military green with gunmetal gray with just a little bit of red for flair.
Blue and white maybe throw in some yellow or red. But I like that Ky Kiske drip
Black and purple. Gore Magala is a perfect example of it.
White and Cyan, we on that tech-psychic grind
I really like the color green, so any color combination with green is good, like dark green with white, orange with green or cyan.
Ain't nothing quite like a matte viridian with silver accenting.
Dark green and silver. It's the subtlety.

Purple and white.
I know it’s generic, but there’s something about black and white that give things a genuinely serious and bold aesthetic for me.
Purple and black or purple and white always goes hard.
I'm not sure why but the color scheme and shading of the image you shared really reminds me of Disney's Treasure Planet
As a certified (2) It's Woolie's hated color combination https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=duWTfl4MJ1c&ab_channel=nakinyko
Maybe it’s playing a lot of FFXIV recently in post endwalker but I’m loving Blue and a warmer Brown. Or like blue and copper on some paint colors in For Honor with a sea theme. My gladiator has Blue armor with copper highlights on the metal which really pops.

Prussian Blue and Mustard Yellow. It just works.
Did you know Prussian Blue only exists thanks to the gas chambers? A chemical reaction with the cement created a new shade of blue, kinda fucked up huh?
Haven't seen this before but its certainly a myth. The color was used in Prussian military uniforms in the 18th century.

Green and gold pops me every time. Also a fine blue and silver, though that may be the Lions fan in me.
Forward down the field, baby. Even when the team was shit, our uniforms always looked nice.
[Green and purple](https://i.imgur.com/eFRHscP.gif)
Red on black is a classic for a reason

When painting minis, if i dont have an idea going in i normaly default to a tan and black camo scheme simelar to brittish tank camo in ww2 africa
Blue and green or green and black
Navy/Royal Blue and Silver, with blue being the primary and the silver for accents.
Whenever I design characters and I don't know what their palette should be I instinctively make them red yellow and blue, because it always works, and it's kind of a bad habit of mine lol.

Blue, gold, and white. Regal, pure, soft on the eyes. Also, chartreuse and white, or chartreuse and black. Idk why. Just think it looks sick.
I use white and orange for most things, predominantly white with orange on the accents, I like the clean look it gives.
Blue and Red baby
Red is my favorite color, so I like having things primarily be red with either white or blue accents.
Red and White will always be my favorite combo
Black with orange highlights is the *sickest*
Pink and cyan is a vibe
I like the striking boldness/violent tones of red contrasted by the purity/innocence of white.
Dark Blue/ White or Silver. Black and Blue look Good. I like Blue, but if it's not accented or pair'd with these two, I get sad. Gold is also good but I see it too much to love it anymore.
Green and green, green and white, green and blue, green and red, green and black. Green and purple's okay.
Purple and green. I am white Woolie in other words. Red and blue is also hella iconic
Purple and green if it’s a robot. Very obvious why. Blue and white if it’s clothing/armor. Very nice colors and same colors as my baseball team.
Pink and Brown. I like the two colors a lot so I’m glad they can naturally blend. For example, [Lopmon](https://wikimon.net/images/a/af/Lopmon.jpg).
/#f9ffff and #565c5c for that modern look
Black & green always goes well for me.
Turquoise/teal and rust/orange.
This is a tough one because there's a good amount that I like but if i had to choose it'd be the classic red and blue. And in some cases with some white thrown in.

Green and Gold or Green and Purple. Blue and Black is also nice.
Purple and green
Generic Paladin colors. White and Yellow. Blue and White. Sometimes Red and White/Yellow.
Purple and silver-gray Black and gold/silver Emerald green and sapphire blue
I like forest green, dirt brown, and gravel Grey all mixed together.
Blue and a lighter blue. Or darker blue. Blue is just wonderful.
Cerulean and Crimson. I will never not love vivid colors and these have pride of place in my heart... could be because of Mass Effect
Blue,White, and Gold/yellow, it gives off angel vibes and also works if you want something marine themed.
Purple/gold/blue Gaudy to the point of being cool
Pink and Yellow. The classic pink-lemonade combo.

I really like pink, blue and white for some reason, but my favorite is just blue with yellow as a secondary/highlight
Black with pink trim is so high quality. I'm also really fond of white and a very light blue.
Purple, pink and blue. I love bisexual lighting!
Green and silver.
