How about Iron Rattler and Wonder Woman at SF Fiesta Texas? Hard to beat TWO RMC's!

 

With Superman: Krypton Koaster - a fantastic floorless B&M in between them in the park.

 

1,2,3 punch.

Cedar Point: Millennium Force and Maverick.

 

Yep. I said it.

 

I agree. Even though going by my top ten rankings like most in this thread, Carowinds would be tied with Cedar Point with 11 points. It's not a linear scale.

 

Maverick (1) + Millennium Force (10)

 

Fury 325 (2) + Afterburn (9)

After riding Twisted Timbers for the first time last weekend, I can confirm that Kings Dominion BY FAR has the best one-two punch of any park I have visited. Intimidator 305 is still my favorite coaster in the park (and favorite coaster of all time), but Timbers is also an excellent ride and a top-tier RMC in my opinion.

I have to put this in, for the young coaster riders in the world....

 

Cedar Point: Woodstock Express & Wilderness Run!

And one for the "young at heart".

Actually I have to double post this. Because there's honestly,

a great one-two punch for kids at Playland(PNE), too!

 

Playland(PNE): Kettle Creek Mine & Bug Whirled.

A great family coaster for kids and their parents! Bit of airtime in it, too.

The newest Playland coaster, for kids and parents. And it spins, too!

This is a hard one:

 

1. Walibi World - Untamed (1) + Goliath (6) = 7

2. Liseberg - Helix (3) + Lisebergbanan (15) = 18

3. Europa Park - Silver Star (10) + Blue Fire (11) = 21

4. Alton Towers - Nemesis (8) + Galactica (15) = 23

^ Steel Vengeance is still pretty new. Except for those of us who live in the Midwest, even a lot of Americans won't have had a chance just yet. But I agree with you, those two next to each other makes that frontier area even better than it already was. Just needs a log flume, and it'd be perfect.

2019 update:

 

1. Cedar Point: Steel Vengeance(1) + Maverick(5) = 6

2. Kings Dominion: Intimidator 305(4) + Twisted Timbers(9) = 13

3. Six Flags Fiesta Texas: Wonder Woman(17) + Iron Rattler(19) = 36

3. Liseberg: Helix(20) + Balder(32) = 52

5. Hersheypark: Skyrush(8) + Storm Runner(51) = 59

 

Some other combos I haven't ridden that I think are/will be worthy of mention:

Jersey Devil + El Toro

Zadra + Hyperion

 

I'm also interested in what additional parks could be considered in the best "One-Two-Three Punch" - BGW? Kings Island?
