Smash Apprentice
I know this idea has been thrown around a few times on this forum, and has been subsequently laughed at, but I believe John Madden has earned a place in Super Smash Bros. Brawl.
The Madden NFL series is arguably the most popular video game series in the world, releasing games from 1989 to this year, and bringing together the most hardcore gamer with the most leisurely fan.
Furthermore, John Madden has been on the SNES, Nintendo 64, Every type of Gameboy, Gamecube, DS, and Wii. In fact, the Madden Franchise is the most well known 3rd party game to pledge it's allegiance to the Wii, releasing a very fun Wii Madden for the last two years, and setting the standard for what Sports on the Wii should be like.
Combining abilities from football players, coaches, and commentators, roles that Madden throughout his life, I made an early sktech for a moveset, it's not great because I did it in the middle of a boring math class, so feel free to comment and improve upon it...
Speed: Same as DK
Weight: Heavy
Throw: Very Good
Jumping: Poor
A: Form Tackle- Madden charges his shoulder into the opponent 3-5%
-2nd Tap, Madden grabs and lifts the opponent, doing no damage but incapacitating for .5 secs
-3rd Tap, A Tackle to the ground, doing 5-8% and stunning the opponent for 1 sec.
^A: Headbutt 5-8%
vA: Cut Block- Madden dives at the opponents knees, knocking them to the ground and stunning for .5 secs, 4-6%
</>A: Rip Move- Throws a quick punch in the air doing 2-4% damage and causing him to dodge all projectiles for the next .5 secs
Running A: Truck Stick- Runs through opponent for 8-12%, decent knockback
Smash </>A: Gatorade Shower- 10% (splash damage) and freezes opponent like Ice Climbers B attack
Smash ^A: Ball Hawk- Interrupts Projectile and Counters to Sender
Smash vA: Field Goal Kick- 2 Second Charge and then a 15-20% Kick with High Knockback (set up with Gatorade Shower)
Nair: QB Vision- For 2 Seconds Madden scans field with QB Vision Cone, and then pelts anyone caught inside with a ball for 10%
Uair: Field Goal Block- Madden jumps foward into opponent, dealing no damage but spiking himself and the opponent on a diagonal downward, can be used as a suicide kill like Kirby's swallow, though is risky because if Madden misses he can't recover (unless he lands on stage)
Fair: Diving Tackle- 5-8%
Dair: Cleat Kick- 10-15% Meteor Spike
Throw A: Knees to Chest- 2-4%
Throw </>: QB Heave- 10%
Throw ^: Punt- 15% and high KO ability
Throw v: Hit Stick- Devastating Powerbomb like Tackle for 15% + 1.5 sec stun
B: Precision Pass- 5-15%, hold down for more power
^B: Instant Replay- Madden uses his infamous yellow anaylsis marker to draw arrows that launch him back to land (pretty much firefox), 10-15%
</>B: Horse Trailer- Madden hops in his famous bus and speeds across the map for 15-30% damage and devastating knockback (hold down for more power/speed like Jigglypuff B)
vB: Padding- Madden dons full pads, making attacks on him phantom attacks, and giving him 50% more weight, but also reducing his speed and jumping by 50%, lasts for 15 seconds and has a 45 second cooldown
Final Smash: Lead Blocking- 5 Offensive Linemen Spawn at left side of maps and charge across, driving everyone off the edge and doing 35% damage, high knockback though opponents can recover if they don't get KO'd.
Entrance: Madden sits in booth with Al Michaels and breaks down the upcoming brawl
Taunt: Madden makes a Heisman pose and yells his patented "Boom!"
Shield: He hops into full pads that get broken off as he is attacked
Air Dodge: Madden pulls a spin move
Costumes:
Philadelphia Eagles uniform
