Hyrule Warriors doesn't really count. That game's interpretation of Impa is vastly different from her canon version, who, like I said, does next to nothing in terms of actual combat. The most unique I could see her being is a Sheik clone with Zelda-esc. special moves.
Most of these come from Hyrule Warriors I guess? In other words, they are not from the main series as HW was created with the idea of it being a non-canon spin-off in mind. For this reason I hardly imagine any character having their Smash moveset based primarily on this game. Could I see some references to HW in a character's moveset? Sure. Could I see a character having their HW moveset as a basis for Smash? Mayyybe, but I doubt it...

So exactly how opposed would you be if Ganondorf fought like this in Smash?
they´d be far more unique characters. But if you prefer `canon´ over this all, have it your way. 
.
and . With them being separate, this gives Impa that extra niche to appeal to older fans of the Down B Transformation playstyle.'s only appearance in the series is in Ocarina of Time and Hyrule Warriors, I think she has the right to be created after her HW incaration. If she plays like her HW self in the next Smash, it gives away her moveset and playstyle for Impa, or at least gives him a base to create Impa with (seeing as Sheik's moves are all made up in Smash anyway).
This is a huge portion of why I don't see the appeal.Well, Impa could still serve as a mixture between the styles of
And since
Lana might be superiour in creativity, but she's very unlikely to appear again in the series. Impa is easily the character most people feel is 'next in line' to become playable.
It means that the enemies are together like the Ice Climbers. All three enemies must be KO'd for them to lose a stock. Each enemy will have their own special move, which is rendered unusable once the enemy is KO'd. The diagonal special consists of each enemy remaining using their move. The down special is summoning a miniboss that gives the Copy Ability, and the FS is summoning a boss that uses an attack that gives the Copy Ability.
Ganon is easily the most awesome potential Zelda character. Won't disagree with that. However, I think that Sakurai won't bother with him due to his size, Ganondorf actually being humanoid Ganon and having a humanoid yet "beastly" fighting style and Ganon being of course Ganondorf's Final Smash.
and for Impa and Beast Ganon in a heartbeat. But am just trying to work around them not being a complete eye-sore and having to replace them. Cause frankly, I like their Hyrule Warriors incarations. And fighting with elements, chanting songs and her Harp is just everything she actually did in Ocarina of Time, not so much throwing Needles, Grenades and having a whip out of nowhere. replaced with Impa in the first place. It was in order to create a highly neccesarry change in the roster. And seeing on how many times people suggest replacing Sheik with Impa and it being received as a good idea post-release, am still sort of let down that it didn't actually went through in the end.
Oh, I wasn't speaking to you directly. I'm just pointing out, in general, that it's silly to write it off for simple and negligible reasons.
I'd love to see a bit if a reshuffle in the Zelda cast. There's plenty of potential there if Sakurai is willing to dip his toe in the deep end and take the plunge. :3Ganon is easily the most awesome potential Zelda character. Won't disagree with that.

In fact, in an ideal world I'd replace the uninspired
The Zelda roster has become incredibly stale since Brawl, and that's why I was so very adamant on having
Of course, but I wasn't factoring likelihood. I never do.
I absolutely agree with this as well. But one thing you have to consider is that Sakurai has learned a lot in the way he makes his characters; I have no doubt that, if Sheik was a newcomer in Smash 4 for whatever reason, her moveset would not only be a lot different but also reflect her character way better.In fact, in an ideal world I'd replace the uninspired
What question is that?
I can't believe a comment that was said tongue in cheek has caused such ruckus. Whoops-a-daisy. I'm aware it's not an adjective, I wasn't going to bring it up but I got quoted twice on it already.
Was this the original question, Kenith?
The question that started this whole thing.
Well the timing of the poll explains it, with MM3D due to be released soon it does makes sense for Skull Kid to rank higher than Impa.
Oh, well, honestly, if we're going purely by uniqueness and importance to the series, I'd say Tingle would be my personal choice.
True Blue Warrior
's poll for a moment, there's a reason why the likes of Ridley isn't as high as he may otherwise be and why Wolf is in a tier of his own.
The Pokemon representation is extremely influenced by the anime, which is am entirely different canon.Most of these come from Hyrule Warriors I guess?

Edit:
Am kind of personally thinking you are looking into it too deep. I personally just think Impa is suited to be made playable, and I don't care which source she takes it from; be it Skyward Sword or Hyrule Warriors. For me, it's not that much of a difference, cause I like the character regardless.
. is the best representation of the Zelda franchise ever: Master Sword, bow & arrows, boomerang, bombs. All appearing as Link's weaponary in multiple parts of the series. : Twilight Princess looks (despite it not being the most recent appearance), Specials constisting of spells Link used.. in Ocarina of Time alone, can summon a Phantom Knight out random, attacks with generic made up magical attacks otherwise. Most important factor in her moveset is her Final Smash, the Light Arrows. She used them twice in combat against Ganon, and they are re-occuring weapons in Zelda. Also, she used to transform into Sheik. But that thing was only really cute in Melee, where it made sence reps his "subseries" artstyle more if anything. & ; the contrast between these characters is amazing. On one side, we have the Great King of Evil who got in due to his similar build to Captain Falcon, and outside of a little few changes, as the Sparta Kick, more slowliness, a ruthless sword taunt, and purple flame stuff we saw in a OOT cutscene still fights mostly as him. And on the otherhand we have Sheik, who was once the alterego of Zelda, got a whole ninja moveset cause creating ninja movesets is TOTALLY Sakurai's thing; . And has been shoe-horned in every Smash game cause "Smash Importance" is a thing apperantly, and Zelda's Transformation gimmick was sooo important, it wouldn't ever make sence for them to split up. Now, the split up of and makes looks like the "Zelda newcomer" of this time. Guess who's unlockable though? Yes, a taller version of with the actual damn wound of his wound, making his taunt more believable. semi-clone, and maybe if we are "lucky" we can get Toon Zelda as a straight up clone as well. Which would still be a 1.000.000 times cooler than and .
The thing is, Impa is a recurring major Legend of Zelda character. Lana is not, she's a one-off from a spinoff game who likely won't ever see the light of day in the main series. Impa could potentially get a few nods from Hyrule Warriors, but overall she'd be representing herself.
(No seriously I hate how Ganon, Zelda and to an extend Link are always one of the worst characters in the game)
I was joking.
I pick just Impa.
It is possible in Hyrule Warriors.
or. I just can't picture her at all sharing any similarities whatsoever
...you don't see any similarities at all between, the two Sheikah?I'm not saying that I wanted all these three to be playable in smash but just looking at them and I know any one of them could've provided a unique move set that anyone would enjoy! But sadly they're all ATs :/
Or maybe even
I also don't see how Impa could be a clone of
If Impa was to be added in, I absolutely can't see her getting any of Sheik or Zelda's moves. How do I know? Because they wouldn't put her in just to be clone
