Smash Lord
Note: I don't have taunts.
Entrance is the DK barrel.
One taunt is him clapping as seen in the Nintendo Fall conference video.
I don't have knockback details for most of his moves, as a lot of them didn't hit.
If you find anything new post it and I'll edit it in.
Diddy Kong.

---DarkGea said:Diddy's dash attack is his cartwheel. and to be really honest I wasn't even using his B moves. We were actually playing matches and I was using his aerial moves which are pretty **** good. His fair is like Mario's in SSB and his dtilt is a MUCH quicker version of DK's. His downsmash is pretty **** powerful as well. He had the best horizontal movement in the air it felt to me, but I may be wrong.
No idea on the peanuts, you gotta realize all of the matches were way hectic because of how they were played.
Diddy's moves are kind of strange.
You have a fox esque uair in the trajectory and hitstun, but it doesn't send them as far. His fair (or was it his bair?) is like Mario's fair from SSB 64 and has nice range, speed, and proirity. His dair is a quicker form of DK's and actually is decently strong for a meteor in this game. *thinks hard* I don't remember the rest.
Basically I was wall of paining with the fair (or was it bair? my brain is fried from SO much info at once) and it was very effective and strong. His downsmash was decently strong and I felt safe jumping out to ledgeguard people.
