Well, first of all, you're arguing canon in a game that doesn't adhere to it at all. Tactician Robin cannot Nosferatu, for instance. The game takes numerous liberties both for the sake of game balance, variety, and "rule of cool". But even further, you're missing the point. The notion isn't to...

Hell yeah, Impa too! Honestly pretty sure I'm missing a ton of other viable female contenders..

Agreed. Don't get me wrong, I'd actually love to see the envelope pushed even further, but it's definitely headed in the right direction. After counting alts and what not, we've got about 21 females. Hell of a boost from Brawl's 4 or so. I say keep it coming. Elma, Dixie, Micaiah, Octolings...

Castle Sieges' second form has a character in the background that is meant to somewhat resemble Black Knight in past games. It's been replaced with a generic red knight. In addition, a lot of people were expecting Chrom to be an Ike Echo, but he ended up Echoing Roy, leaving Ike open. Black...

Hell yeah. Zero and Chrom were my most wanted newcomers. I'm over the moon that Chrom is in, so I can't complain too much, but man, I'd love Zero as a playable character. I even have an entire moveset planned out in my head haha. I'd love it if his moveset was a mixture of both MMX and MMZ...

I missed this. Care to fill me in?

This is correct. ZX follows after Z, and then Legends is oft considered part of the main lore further after, though I'm not sure that this is ever hard confirmed in game. Huge Megaman Zero fan, so I follow that lore and what not pretty damn closely lol

Agreed. Practically half the cast has an entirely fabricated moveset. Captain Falcon, Fox, Wii Fit Trainer, ROB.. he even created 3 entirely seperate movesets for Mii's which are effectively stick figures. Moveset potential is an extremely weak indicator of whether a character will make the...

Well, Fox and Falco are pretty thoroughly decloned. They only share a hand full of moves nowadays, and that's about it. As for Mario v Dr. Mario, there's a couple things to consider. The main purpose of Echo's are that they're an easy addition that can be balanced against the original...

There's a lot of possibility. A suggestion I see often that I quite like, is making it involve Grima. Robin still has his gloves on, so we can't see if Grima's brand is on him anymore. This would make Robin more ambiguous as well.

Oh, of course, of course, my mistake. Still, something to keep a close eye on. She'd be a great addition!

Hm. I wasn't aware that Palutena lost her Medusa alt. I mean, so far we've seen the same situation with Dark Samus and Chrom, so that's actually suspicious.

Yeah, Medusa is easily possible. The third most recurring KI character, would overlay on Palutena nicely (especially given how malleable the Goddess' are moveset wise), and was a popular pick around the time of the poll.

I personally don't count anyone in before I know they are. I've been through the cycle enough times to know that even the most obvious picks can be pulled out from your grip. However, it's not unfounded. The AT is gone, Shadow easily fills out the popularity demand to meet the requirements for...
