If you add Lizard and Spock, the game is still current tied.

Strangely enough, Lizard predates Rock significantly but took a long time to be considered competitively fair - around the time Spock was invented.

Lizard predates rock

Sorry what? Rocks were formed by the cooling of planetary bodies during their creation (such as the earth). Pretty sure there were no lizards around at that point in the early solar system.

Also lizard loses to both rock and scissors, so it was completely unviable until the invention of paper, and it's only balanced when Spock is born.
