I think something better would be to pay homage to the scene in Fire Emblem: Awakening when Chrom went against Lucina in Arena Ferox. Except replacing Lucina with Marth.I actually thought of this a while ago (before I even joined Smashboards), but I figured it'd be worth sharing.
Chrom's reveal trailer:
Marth is busy training on a stage (Battlefield I guess?) by himself. Suddenly he senses something behind him and thrusts Falchion backwards. The screen zooms in as we see it collide with a very similar yet different sword. Zooming out slowly it's shown that Marth is staring face to face with his distant descendant, Chrom.
Giving a confused look, Chrom squints his eyes slightly as he says, "Have we...met before?" (referencing the DLC chapters where he meets with Marth's spirit). Marth says nothing and starts an epic swordfight until both end up on opposite sides of the stage, with Chrom shaking his head in disbelief. "There's no way..."
And que gameplay footage.
Maybe some white and gold in there too.So anyway, I've been thinking about changing the OP's colors to something more fitting. Perhaps a combo of gray and blue?
Gold would be nice!Maybe some white and gold in there too.
It's going to be Takamaru or Palutena I'm sure of it.Anyway, let's keep hoping for April, guys!
Dude....I mean unless there is an intention to kill the hype of course.
I know right, if they wanted to kill the hype they'd probably reveal Shulk .It's going to be Takamaru or Palutena I'm sure of it.

I just got dat feeling it'll be in April.Gold would be nice!
I'll probably get that done by the end of the week, knowing my busy schedule this week. Anyway, let's keep hoping for April, guys!
Preferably all the text. I was thinking pastel versions of the four colors mentioned, as to be more pleasing to the eye.So you guys think Chrom will be revealed in April, huh? Well, alrighty then, in the meantime I'm keeping my eyes out for Roy and the end of this month (FE6 was released on the 29th). We'll see what happens on these release dates. But the real question is: why can't we have both?
Changing the OP's colours would be nice. It would certainly spice things up. Would it be all the text or just titles/headlines?
No way in hell am I going to tolerate the worst fanbase I've ever experienced, while at the same time I do not want yet another controversy to be stacked on a series plagued by them.Dude....
Do you not have anything better to do?
Just let them be.
"This is the worst fanbase I've ever experienced!" while blatantly attacking them in their own thread, which is, as far as I can tell, completely unprovoked.No way in hell am I going to tolerate the worst fanbase I've ever experienced
The reasons I mentioned this is because sometimes people use eye bleeding text colours for, well, everything, making things hard to read. Though, it may also be a personal thing for me as I do have wonky and sensitive eyesight. But you seem to already have this concern in mind, and I agree that pastel versions may be easier on the eyes.Preferably all the text.

I plan on something similar to what I did with the Klefki thread, if you remember that. Would that be an okay design plan?The reasons I mentioned this is because sometimes people use eye bleeding text colours for, well, everything, making things hard to read.

*checks the Klefki thread*I plan on something similar to what I did with the Klefki thread, if you remember that. Would that be an okay design plan?
What can I say? I had to keep up with the K. Rool thread somehow.Oh wow, the OP is looking good!
I do like it when threads at least have coloured text for titles. Dunno why... makes it look like it has some life, if you get what I'm saying haha.
Well all 3 are actually pretty recent now.I believe in the notion that Chrom would be a starter. He's a newer face so people will recognize him more. Marth and Chrom can both be starters, while Ike being an unlockable character makes sense. It's similar to Lucas and Ness in Brawl. So him being in a Direct before the game ships is ideal, and April would be a good time.
Lookin' gooda!And with that, the OP is nice and shiny!
Yeah, that's what I'm thinking. Chrom and Marth will be starters while Ike is kept as a secret unlockable.I believe in the notion that Chrom would be a starter.

That'd be pretty cool, and even better if they could incorporate the shield too. It would be awesome to have a Chrom & Lucina tag team with them both using variations of the sword, lance, and shield lol. Then have a ton of dual-support specials to wrap everything up!I'd hope Chrom would have an Owain color swap. Not one completely based of off him... but just same vague coloring that represented him.
Who wouldn't want to play as a blonde Chrom?
After reading the description in the OP-which looks very nice BTW- I'd like the idea of Chrom being able to strategically switch between a sword and a lance. (maybe as a down B?)
The two could have major pros and cons that, for the right situation, you'd need to use one or the other.
Possibly one is very strong, slow, and short-distance
And one is very fast, weak, and long-distance
I'd imagine the first would be the sword and the 2nd would be the lance.
You'd use the sword either when you're at a low percentage, or if your battling a slow character, like Dorf, or a character with easy knockback that isn't too fast, like Zelda.
Then you'd use the lance at a high percentage, or if your battling fast characters with a lack of projectiles, like Little Mac.
Like a keep-away kind of thing.
Wow, Chrom could be unique so easily
I personally support him in a team with Lucina simply because I like her slightly more and I don't see her being added a lone over him or them both getting in alone alongside both Marth and Ike. And cuz super important Awakening mechanic blah blah blah :3
But he'd be unique with or without her
pls sakurai gimme lucina somehow....
I do support 4 Fire Emblem slots though...
Marth, Ike, Chrom & Lucina, and for the last, Tiki or Anna. I like the idea of a mis-match team with Manakete+Lance... but pretty much only me a BluePikmin have ever mentioned it... it's not likely... but I want
These 4/6 would REALLY get me excited to play some Smash Bros all day long, and buy more Fire Emblem games
You are taking this way way more personally then you really should, this kind of hatred for anything isn't good for you. This definitely isn't worth getting this worked up over.No way in hell am I going to tolerate the worst fanbase I've ever experienced, while at the same time I do not want yet another controversy to be stacked on a series plagued by them.
He should just have the entire cast of Awakening behind him .Chrom should have 5 switchable partners
Chrom and Lucina, Chrom and Robin, Chrom and Owain, Chrom and Anna, and Chrom and "Marth"
"Chrom's the bomb!"Guys, I've got this. Chrom's crowd chant:
"ChrOM-NOM-NOM!!"
Definitely the obvious choice."Chrom's the bomb!"
Indeed, alongside the emotionally discharged knee-jerk reaction of "If Roy was unable to make the cut, neither will Mewtwo" I am expecting from a select few, this will doubtlessly be among the worst results of premature responses toward Chrom's potential inclusion, if not the.Guys, the thing you have to remember is that in the event that Chrom may hypothetically end up being the next newcomer confirmed, a lot of people are going to have a knee-jerk reaction of "IKE HAS BEEN REPLACED! THE PATTERN LIVES ON!!!!!"
Ike doesn't need to be cut.Reasons:
1. He's New. This is simple, but it makes sense. Chrom is from the latest Fire Emblem game that released in February. Marth is confirmed, so he can't go. Ike is from the GameCube era, even though he made a Wii appearance. That's kinda old at this point. Chrom will likely replace Ike, as the new representative from the series.
2. Fire Emblem Awakening was a game-changer. Many of you might not have known this, but FE:A was going to be the last game in the series if it didn't reach 250k sales. Luckily, it didn't just meet this amount... it exceeded it by a LOT. The 3DS game met critical acclaim and is mostly accepted as one of the best Strategy RPGs in recent memory. Since you could say FE:A saved the series, its hero deserves a spot. Many people like him as well, so he's popular.
3. Fire Emblem Awakening already has a presence in Smash 4. Arena Ferox, a location from the game, has already been confirmed as an stage in Smash 4 3DS. This shows that Sakurai has acknowledged the game. Since Ike is old and we can assume Fire Emblem will have at least two fighters(Melee and Brawl each had 2), Chrom is obvious.
