With Smash Ultimate several characters have added UI to help you know what to expect in a fight, and when. For example Little Mac's KO Punch meter, and Cloud's Limit meter. I think everyone can agree that these are great additions to the game. They are so great in fact, that it's a wonder that they didn't add more UI elements to certain characters, who would benefit from it greatly. A notable example is Wario, who gets slightly fatter as he build gas for his Waft in his belly. The change is so slow though, that you probably won't notice the difference unless you personally play Wario.
A YouTuber called "PJiggles" recently made a video about this.

In the above video, PJiggles offers several ideas for UI that could be added, and also brings up the controversy of the Miis. One of the biggest issues when fighting a Mii, especially online, is that you don't know what moves they have equipped until they use them. In these situations you don't know what your opponent can do. No matter how many Miis you face, you won't know exactly what you're up against, until half way through the fight. PJiggles has presented a possible solution. It's simple, add UI elements that give you this missing information. Go to 8:10 in the video to see what I'm referring to. Adding UI elements that tell you which special a Mii has equipped would be a huge improvement, and would likely cause many who are not fans of the Miis to warm up to them more.
I wanted to bring more attention this idea, because I feel that it would greatly improve aspects of the game. I also wanted to start discussion in the community to see how open everyone would be to this idea.
I searched to make sure this kind of thread didn't already exist, but if I missed it, I'm sorry, please don't ban me.
