You're right. I should replace him with PlasmWraith.
But if you support the Waterwraith you support the Plasm Wraith as well.
When my son asks me where nopes come from. I tell him it's from rosters that replace Ike.
How do you know?But if you support the Waterwraith you support the Plasm Wraith as well.
I just said Ike wasn't being cut. There's four FE characters.
Well, it's heavily implied that they're the same entity, and I would love to bring out my Pikmin nerd powers, but I'll restrain myself.
Well, for conveniences sake, I'll just consider them two different entities till further notice.
And I will consider them the opposite of what you consider them.
Hey, where did you get that Titan Dweevil picture? I haven't seen it before. I'd really like to make a proper icon for it.
Wa'ch'you talkin' 'bout?Now let's talk about Tabbuu as the final boss of Smash Run
Fixed.Wa'ch'you talkin' 'bout?
Final boss in Smash Run will be Waddle Dee. Nobody deserves such a position more.
That trailer was made over a year before the game will be complete, so it just might not have been implemented yet.
Thing with Lucas is that he was basically added to represent the new Mother game, but now it's not so new anymore, so he's not needed as much, and he's not like Lucario who continued to stay relevant and popular. It wouldn't be so bad if he represented other things about the Mother series on his own, but he basically just represents everything that Ness already does, the silent main protagonist, he doesn't even differentiate himself from Ness that much in moveset either. Out of all of the characters from Brawl Lucas seems like one of the more unnecessary additions for this game, thus makes me think he's one of the more likely cuts. This of course is ignoring the fact that Mother in itself is a small and obscure series, which I think is relevant when deciding who to cut.
Lucas wasnt even relevant when he was originally included lol
Im ok with squirtle and ivy being cut since they werent iconic in the first place.
When Brawl was being made he was.
Earthbound has never really been relevant tbh, Im in a firm believe that squirtle and ivy are the only characters on the chopping block.
What do you even mean by that?
Earthbound is a pretty niche series.
I honestly think Lucas's moveset will be redone for this game to make him even more different than ness.
Yeah, all 5 moves they have in common.
He might dive a bit more deeply into the mother games for a different special moveset, also even though ness and lucas have alot of different normals they kind of play very similar which is something he may want to try and change.
Me too, he's my main, and I love Mother 3, but Mewtwo was completely unique, yet...
Most of the evidence for Mewtwo's exclusion points to time constraints. Mewtwo's another character I really want in this game.
yet they ran out of time due to them not having a lovely namco bandai helping them :D
You don't think Lucas could get cut due to time constraints?
Lucas represents Mother 3, which is a game Ness does not appear in and very different in many aspects from the first two games, so he does represent something Ness does not. Lucas should still get new special moves though.
He could, but so could anyone considered a low priority. Or heck, even a newcomer could not be added due to time.
And with characters like Toon Link, Zero Suit Samus, Lucario and Shiek returning things are looking good.
Exactly. Toon Link is good evidence that Lucas has a pretty high chance of coming back. While Toon Link plays very differently than regular Link, his moves are much more similar to Link than Lucas' are to Ness.
His game represents different things then Ness's game does, but not Lucas himself compared to Ness himself. If you want to represent differences in games you have stages to do that.
I also think sakurai has changed toon link up some more we just havnt seen what yet.
I honestly think your stretching it a bit, all of those characters could have easily been cut, Lucas wouldnt have been added in the first place if sakurai didnt think he was important, I mean last game it was ness that was on the rocks not lucas, Im not really too worried, if tink and zamus made it I think all brawl vets are fine (minus squirtle and ivy since they were just tack ons to validate pokemon trainer who wasnt even associated with the actual iconic red unfortunately.)
Huh? Squirtle is very iconic.
Not really, I mean he is one of the original starters but thats as far as it goes really, charizard, mewtwo and pikachu are what I call Iconic.
I'm stretching it? Sakurai said a child Link is important to have and that ZSS is his way of adding a 2nd Metroid character which he thinks deserves two characters. Why would he want them gone? I'll give you Shiek since Sakurai didn't say anything about her being an important/necessary addition to have, but still. What you said about Lucas could said about anyone added, yet characters still get cut. Ness has become very iconic and very popular based on all his appearances in the Smash series, and I'm sure Sakurai knows this, and Ness was only "on the rocks" back when Lucas and Mother 3 were new which they're not anymore, also Earthbound is more critically received and more well known game (helps being released worldwide) so keeping Lucas over Ness now makes little sense.
