I have trouble justifying Lyn without FE7's main protagonist, Eliwood.

Eliwood is an odd case. He is seen as redundant due to Roy.I have trouble justifying Lyn without FE7's main protagonist, Eliwood.
That's why I said "Most", Ike's my favorite Lord ever, and Hector second, they are both awesome. Ike is the lord in PoR also, plus Hector mode, so I don't see what your saying about two not being lords. The ones you mentioned were the ones I was excluding. Lyn is the best FE character to choose for Smash, if we want an original, thought out move-set.Ike, Chrom, Micaiah, and Hector would like to have a word with you. Even though two of them aren't technically lords.
Though most of them are pretty generic. Characters like Marth and Eirika are very cookie-cutter-like.
How did Katarina and other non-lords get in over Sigurd, Hector and Eliwood.Eliwood is an odd case. He is seen as redundant due to Roy.
I myself find it strange that Intelligent Systems favoured Lyn over Eliwood and Hector. (I'm still unhappy that they didn't get a DLC redesign.)
FE7's japanese popularity poll has Eliwood on 2nd place, Hector 3rd and Lyn 5th. And Nino came 1st. (That's partly why I find it hard to take that poll seriously.)
Take a look at Manly's poll. (Note that it is in the context of Fire Emblem, not Smash Bros.)

Lyn and Hector have managed to remain popular, which is notable.
I'm boggled as to why they left out Hector, but as for Sigurd and Eli, I guess they just seemed too much like Seliph and Roy, respectively.How did Katarina and other non-lords get in over Sigurd, Hector and Eliwood.
I think they will have 4 with Ike included, Ike's moveset is made for him, so it's unlikely it would be wasted. The only move that would fit for Chrom is his counter, because he doesn't use Aether the way Ike does. I'm mostly afraid for the clones, but Ike isn't a clone he has his own moveset corresponding wwith his games, so I expect him to stay with the addition of those 2.I support lyn for smash 4, I hope it'll go down like so, Marth, Lyn, Chrom
Marth to rep the first FE in the East
Lyn to rep the first FE in the West
Chrom because FEA is new
So that means chrom replaces ike, (radiant dawn is more micaiah 's than ike's). sadly to say roy shouldn't be coming back imo.
You know, that might be Lyn's best chance. That, or if he decided to prioritize characters who had high support for previous games.You know what'd be funny? With how unpredictable Sakurai has gotten, what if Lyn overtook the other FE candidates like Roy and Chrom?
After all, Sakurai's fave FE character is a Swordmaster akin to Lyn.
I'd laugh my *** off if that happened.
This would be brilliant. The internet rage would be so massive, and it would be hilarious.You know what'd be funny? With how unpredictable Sakurai has gotten, what if Lyn overtook the other FE candidates like Roy and Chrom?

Wait, where did you hear this? If so, that boosts her chances up a bit.So apparently Sakurai is taking pre-Brawl era popularity into account while deciding the roster. That raises my hopes a bit.
Everyone is saying that in the Smash general thread. I'll see if I can find a source.Wait, where did you hear this? If so, that boosts her chances up a bit.
There's no conclusive evidence; only speculation. The fact that most of the new characters in Brawl were leftovers from the official Melee poll is argued by some to be more than just a little uncanny. From a development point of view it kind of makes sense too because Sakurai has stated that determining the roster is one of the first things he tries to knock out whenever he develops a Smash game. Another thing to consider that most of the popular character requests for SSB4 were a lot of same ones that didn't make it into Brawl five years ago just like how the most popular character requests didn't dramatically change from Melee to Brawl. That being said I don't think he would be offending too many people's sensibilities if he used old surveys/data because it's still mostly relevant to the fans' current tastes.
I could deal with thatI support lyn for smash 4, I hope it'll go down like so, Marth, Lyn, Chrom

I'd appreciate a source.I don't know if this has been mentioned, but a poll was taken in Japan on your favorite SpotPass characters in Awakening. Lyn finished second, only behind Marth.

I have a question for you guys. If Lyn gets in, what other FE characters would you want with her? Personally, I would want Marth, Lyn, and Chrom/Ike. A bit undecided on the last one.
Does she really?Lyn's still going strong? Runs even over Roy now?
So uh... what will Chrono say.
It was a poll on the popularity of the spotpass Lords.Does she really?
Where, in Short's poll?

Scroll down a bit to find it.

Ahh, is that among Western fans or Japanese fans. If the latter, then I have renewed hope.It was a poll on the popularity of the spotpass Lords.

Well, since it's about spotpass, it's possible that Ike's low position is due to his atrocious redesign.Ike should be so much higher if it was by westerners...
