I don't think Kamui/Corrin fans have anything to worry about, because Tumblrinas twist logic, not to mention the fact that the character people raged about isn't able to S support both genders despite outright revealing she likes men and women, with women being her preference

Honestly, I don't see the point in having Ganon as anything but a Final Smash for Ganondorf.
If you want a Ganon(dorf) that uses a trident, just give the trident to Ganondorf.
If you want a Ganon(dorf) that uses more magical attacks than "amplify strength in physical attacks with dark magic", just give them to Ganondorf.
If you simply want to have a manbearpig as a playable fighter......well, I suppose that's a different story.

People invent a false dilemma with Ganondorf where he can either stay completely as Falcondorf or replace everything with yet another sword moveset. Just take the Bowser/Pit approach and swap out a handful of specials/normals for better, more representative ones and you've satisfied pretty much everyone.

Would anyone truly be heartbroken over the loss of "Warlock Kick"?

I don't think like a few small changes like his neutral air being similar to Mewtwo except with Dark Magic and fixing his attacks so he's still the same magic brawler without having the similarities to :4falcon:. I just hate the idea of turning him to another character and to give his moveset away because that's stupid and the moveset fits the triforce form of

:4link:Courage=Weapons and Sword master

:4zelda:Wisdom=Magic based

:4ganondorf:Power=Pure Brawler
This proves my point. People want Gannondorf how he is now, but that means we lost out on a potential more-game baded Gannondorf because his addition as a clone.

I would like it if people treated clones as a Smash series one-shot and not expect them to come back. But with DLC that doesn't matter as much.

Tumblrinas? I've always called them Tumblroids since a majority of them are weaboos that don't know everything half the time.

I guess you could call Tumblr.... Trigger Happy.

This, definitely. Replace some of the moves that are obvious still very Captain Falcon-like, and give him better special moves and I'm good.
Giving him a sword would probably make him less unique anyway.

No, 'cos Warlock Kick isn't a thing.

Wizard's Foot, on the other hand...

;3

EDIT: Wizkick is actually one of Ganondorf's most useful (albeit, like his entire set, situational) moves. I'd like anything that replaces it to have as useful a function.

My reply when people say Ganondorf's moveset encompasses who he is.
"WHEN DA **** DID GANONDORF LEARN HOW TO DO SPLITS!"

To be fair, he was a lot more limber and able-bodied when he was younger (i.e. Melee).
It only looks awkward because Ganondorf's an old fart now.

Yeah, I'm one of those people that likes Ganondorf as he is and doesn't want him to be totally overhauled.

If he had Dead Man's Volley (hell, just tack on a projectile to his neutral-b), a fist slam and a few of his animations changed, I'd be totally content.

Keep Flame Choke, though.

Flame Choke is like nine-tenths of the reason Ganondorf is viable.

Something I think would be really cool is if Flame Choke was made into Ganondorf's grab.
His pummel is him crushing the opponent by the neck, Down Throw is like the default Flame Choke, and up throw is like the custom moves that sends them upwards.
His grab range is better, and his dash grab looks like the current animation for the move.

It would be fitting and very bad***. :awesome:

His pummel is him crushing the opponent by the neck and all of his are equally brutal.
Flame Choke is his grab, though.

That's definitely the only grab he has. Everyone knows that. Silly Kenith~

I actually like Flame Choke too (mainly because its seems to be based of what HE ACTUALLY DOES in Twilight Princess to that sage. Also it is a cool suicide move).

I definitely agree with that, but a lot of people tend to think his entire current moveset needs to be erased and that he should primarily fight with a sword, which I disagree with.

Not to get into Zelda lore but I don't think Ganondorf was thousands of years old in Ocarina of Time. Don't know how long Gerudos live but I know he wasn't a monster or demon in that game, he was just a really powerful dude.

I don't really care if Ganondorf fought with a sword (I kinda just want him to use it for like a couple normal moves), I would just like him to have more of his iconic moveset from OoT in there ie. Dead Man's Volley for Neutral B, Floating **** he do for Up B etc.

Well, he gets reincarnated, which makes him super old (soul being from Demise from SS). Not the body of his.

Either way, one day I want some incarnation of Ganon in Smash using the trident and magical attacks.
Like a redesigned Ganondorf with a trident, like Hardin:

I still remember the reactions to Ganondorf's Hyrule Warriors trailer.

Expecting a Ganondorf with swords and/or real dark magic in Smash?
Too bad, Sakurai time.

I hate when people complain about Ganondorf being fat...You people do realise that he's wearing thicker clothing and armour right?
