Ganondorf's sword wouldn't bring anything newer than his current move set. So why bother when we're already facing constraints?
Is this even a real thing? Really? REALLY? REALLY?!

...*Ahem*, it adds to his character, it adds reach (A heavy improvement that he was overall lacking), and makes him a character all the more true to his franchise. To say it wouldn't bring anything is sincerely bull-Scheiße. And not to mention having a character who uses heavy Magic/Heavy Swordplay isn't something seen in Smash Bros yet, so yet again that adds something new. Stop spewing bias lies.

How would you feel about big the cat as our second sonic character.
I was never crazy about Big as a second Sonic character in a Sonic game, and if you could see all of the Sonic nerd stuff I've got in here, you'd know that means something.

He doesn't really need the sword to be honest. Just have it for a minimum of his moves, while keeping the bruiser style he's already established (while de-cloned).
He needs magic more than he needs a sword. He is a warlock, is he not?

i liked Big The Cat...a lot
I don't discredit him as a character, I have a soft spot for most Sonic characters, no matter how bad or annoying, and honestly, Big's a whole lot more tolerable than others, but FISHING? In a Sonic game? Come on now.

I did enjoy his story inclusion with Chaos and Froggy, and he was as fun as I guess he could have been in HEROES, but he's no Knuckles dear sir.

Let's get back on topic:

What is everyone's opinion on Tetra's chances and if she should or would be paired with Toon Zelda.

It was more along the lines of a joke that Mario is conceptually based on Ryu from Street Fighter and Akuma as seen as a Shotoclone to Ryu, but no, he can Shinkuu Hadoken. :p
Got the joke.

However, Ganondorf is the only one worthy of "I WANT SAUSAGES!"

Sooooo you want him to be a Mario clone? :p
But if Hades becomes a Ganondorf clone, and Ganondorf becomes a Mario clone, then we never really lost any clones, in fact, we gained one.

Ah hell. RIDLEY FOR JIGGLYPUFF CLONE! Just give me some new kids to fight with.

I got bored, and made a Smash 4 roster. Based on the idea that it's incredibly small (40) but no clones of any type, and it's well balanced. Diddy + Dixie are a tag team, ZSS, Newtwo, and Shiek are Transformations.



Cuts:
-Lucas, Wolf, Sonic, Snake, Falco, Toon Link

Additions:
-Dixie, King K Rool, Takamaru, Villager, Little Mac, Tingle, Shulk, Mewtwo, Palutena, Ridley, Krystal, Miis

I had a hard time cutting Wolf, but I thought Krystal would play more interesting than him, so I did. I wanted to include a new FE character, but I opted for Takamaru. (Plus I couldn't decide between Lyn, and Robin) Other than that the inclusions and cuts were pretty easy choices in my eyes.

I always heard it more as "TEN THOUSAND SAUSAGES!" myself.

I'm not even sure who the hell I could base Jigglypuff off of in terms of being a conceptual character. :ohwell:

How does changing the topic get us back on topic?

But to answer your question. Bleh. Give us Tingle already. I'm ready for something weird, not more of the same.

A puffy Ridley is better than no Ridley at all at this point.

Because the topic is always Character Predictions

Ummm....I don't mean to rain on your roster, but...

Well, personally, I think Tetra is the most likely choice for a new Zelda character, as she would "complete" the roster as it is by giving us the equivalent of Toon Zelda to complement Toon Link. As for whether she'll be paired with Toon Zelda, it's hard to say. If they want to make her a clone of Zelda/Sheik, than that would be the most likely option, but given the emphasis on unique characters, it's quite possible she'll be solo, as without Toon Zelda there's actually a lot more room for her to be her own unique, pirate based character.

Wait... you cut Sonic? And Toon Link?

Heck, you don't even have Rosalina, Wii Fit Trainer, or Mega Man on there.

What kind of roster is this again?

I'm out.

It's Nintendo All Stars, and it's under 40 characters. I wanted 12 newcomers, and I didn't want cloney characters.

They were easy cuts under the circumstances.

Tetra doesn't have to be a clone of Sheik (nor could she be). But, if one Zelda is a Zelda + A unique Zelda twist and the other is a Zelda + A unique Zelda twist, so it makes sense. :p

(I wonder if there is anybody on this site with Toon Sheik on their roster...)

But... what kind of roster is this exactly? Is this a wish roster, or a prediction?

I'm seriously hoping it's the former.

I want my own Ridley balloon too. :p That being said, Ridley's already got a clear-cut conceptual character, Firebrand. For Jigglypuff...I'm thinking Anakaris. :p
Most of those words may as well have been Russian to me, but you ended it with a smiley, so I'm gonna take it as though something happy went down.

Honestly at this point, I've stopped caring about what the end roster might look like. I didn't think I could be as excited for Little Mac as I was when we got him. The reveals are so exciting, no matter who they are. And based off some of your rosters, we could get Lip and Starfy and Dora the Explorer and the whole freakin' cast of Glee, but I'd still be jacked for reveals.

Just as long as Falco and Mewtwo make their bad ass return. And you know, balloon Ridley.

If Tetra doesn't need to be a Sheik clone, neither would Impa.

It's neither.
It's a hypothetical roster he made on the grounds that no 3rd Parties or clones of any sort were ever present.

Falco and Mewtwo are all but guaranteed at this point, as Falco has no reason to leave and Mewtwo has no reason not to return. And someone needs to give Jigglypuff a Ridley skin. :p

My only question is what Falco could be given to diverse himself more from Fox...except you know...different throws being a good place to start.

Does this mean if Giygas doesn't have to be a clone that Ninten doesn't either? You can't say that because one character wouldn't be a clone that a character with no resemblance whatsoever wouldn't be a clone of a character who is basically the same thing.

Sheik's the best, and only ninja we need. She's got needles, and chains and a sweet mask, and lady parts. I'm satisfied.

I'm so gonna Photoshop a Ridleypuff. I'll share it with you whenever I get it done.

Falco could easily be given some giant canon or something from Assault. They could use his beak, you know, if they really wanted to. Different aerials and throws definitely. He could be completely different and he'd still be my favorite. Arwing Final Smash is a must though.
