That's correct. I do believe in the Smash team to make the Doom Slayer as memorable as they possibly can.
I wouldn't mind if they go a bit off the source code to appease rating boards. But I do believe 100% the Super Shotgun (Or more accurately, the upgraded Eternal one with Meat Hook) will stay. Maybe with rubber bullets.

No idea how one would be able to visually convey rubber bullets, but it's not like it would matter overall.

This got me thinking:
The release gap between Piranha Plant and the K. Rool and Ice Climbers amiibo was a 15 day gap. Joker and the Ken and Young Link amiibo was 6 days. Hero and the Pichu and Isabelle amiibo was 4 days. And lastly, Banjo & Kazooie and the Squirtle, Ivysaur and Snake amiibo was 16 days. Crunching the numbers together, release gap is about 10 days average, whether it's before or after amiibo. That means between November 5th, over a good two months after Banjo, and November 25th, just in time for Thanksgiving.
And since we're going by Wednesdays, which DLC characters besides Hero usually release on, that's potentially either 2 days before the release (November 13th) or 5 days afterwards (November 20th) if we're choosing to get as close to the amiibo as possible. But then again, there is Banjo, boasting the largest release-to-amiibo gap, so that's throwing it for a loop. Not to mention, the range I listed earlier factors in every possible Wednesday for November of this year, so while that's still a little difficult to pin down, this amiibo release date announcement does narrow it down.

Awesome yeah I kinda did expect early mid November, I'm honestly stolked for Terry Fatal Fury and King of Fighters looks great and it's awesome too see him in.
But can't wait too see him shown off by one of the best game directors ever Masahiro Sakurai. I know he'll do his representation justice.
Also hey Doom Slayer seems like a cool character and would be a great addition if he's in congrats.

Heh, it's alright! It's been slow days these days. Breaks the ice a bit.
We are one month left for the next Direct, possibly. November 1 was the Direct from 2018, so it should be at around that time we are getting it, in accordance to Terry possible release and gameplay.
You know what I believe? This is going to be the events that will unfold:
1- Assuming there's characters in development, they may have at least 2 characters ready that might show up in that Direct.
2- The Direct might start with the final 5th fighter... It could be another Eastern Rep, possibly... So we might end up frustrated and sad...
3-If nothing happens, the Direct would go as usual, until the end, which might be the time of reveal.
4- Terry Gameplay by Sakurai might be shown. At the end of the gameplay, we may hear a Chainsaw revving up... A door opening or an idle demon sound (Like a crackling of bones in Doom 1). This could be the Western rep to make the West happy after an unknown Eastern fighter. Also, the first character of the Fighter Pass 2/Separate DLC character that might be "demons"trated (No pun intended).
5- Watch out for either Bayonetta, Kirby or Pit/Dark Pit and Palutena, as they are connected to either Demons and Heaven... Also watch out for another one of those timelines (Like Terry's), if it shows a PC... We are on the money, folks!
6- I will literally **** bricks if the entire reveal is made in Anime, if it involves Palutena, since Doom Slayer inspired Goblin Slayer. I would literally never see it coming.
Here you go! Some food for thought!

Yeah, hard pass on this one. It made the BFG in the 2005 film look epic by comparison, and all this pretty much had were Imps and zombies, while the 2005 film had Hell Knights and more other demons. Sure, the Hell bits and Betruger were nice (even if he looked nothing like in Doom 3), but it seems there was more parts in the first film to enjoy, star power with Dwayne Johnson and such aside, but even that only gets like a 6/10 from me.

You were right to post it, it could actually help us narrow down the date. I could see the presentation happening a few days before, like on the 13th.

What about Joker and the Young Link, Daisy and Ken amiibos? Joker was released on April 17th compared to the Amiibos release on the 12th. If we only had the Amiibo theory to go by, Terry could still release weeks after the Amiibos release. With Banjo & Kazooie's release on September 4th while the Amiibos released on the 20th, No offence to

for bringing it up but Banjo & Kazooie killed Amiibo theory.

I always find it interesting how a lot of these online theories (especially Smash theories) hinge on a specific sequence of patterns, events and/or outcomes occurring in an exact fashion, with absolutely no room for leeway or outliers. It more or less invokes a greater chance for such theories to be completely debunked by a single discrepancy.

Doubful; Sakurai is quite the generous man when it comes to references and representation.
And I doubt id would have many qualms with giving him as much music as possible.
Ahaha!

It's good to see that result (the initial results were slightly flawed because it was a write-in ballot, so to use Doomguy as an example, people voted for him as Doomguy, Doom Slayer, The Doom Slayer, Doom, etc. and each name was counted as its own entry when they were all for the same character), but one thing to remember is that it's a pretty small sample size.

Huh... Doomguy and Hayabusa’s support sure haven’t dropped at least.

Well if you thought they were heathens before...
Also, props to Heavy Weapons Guy for making it as high as he did.
I've said this before and I'll say it again: given how it goes against the fundamental idea of Spirits (allowing otherwise unviable or unrealised characters to become fighters in spirit), I stand against the notion that "Is a Spirit != disqualified from becoming a fighter" unless I am proven otherwise.
