Official DLC Speculation Discussion Volume II

[cashregister9]

Yeah Revealing CP 11 first would be significantly smarter and makes more sense and would probably be what they would do.

But it's not pure chaos,

 

[TyrantLizardKing]

Thank god I work a long shift tomorrow. This is about to be the Christmas Eve of Smash reveals, I don't even know how I'll sleep that night. So many possibilities rolling around in my head that I'm scared of (both good and bad), just gotta keep telling myself it'll be something underwhelming like a Pokemon.

 

[Mamboo07]

I'm gonna watch it on the 6th

 

[N3ON]

I'm gonna watch it on the 6th

Yes that's how Australia works

 

[Noipoi]

Yes that's how Australia works

But how’s he gonna read it upside down?

 

[skylanders fan]

What if they show the mii costumes and stage and just have to wait to see who we get when they come out in the game

 

[N3ON]

But how’s he gonna read it upside down?

Isn't that how they learn to read in the first place?

This is going to sound very dramatic but dang, I'm watching these "Final DLC Fighter Speculation/Prediction" videos and I'm just thinking "wow, this is it". I never realized it until I watched PapaGenos' video that this is the last time I'm going to be hyped for a Smash reveal until the next one. All the Smash related speculation or leaks or ****posts are just going to go right to the Smash Bros history books.

For years I've advocated for Bandana Waddle Dee for Smash and even though it was a pain to argue with Deetractors and it's very likely BWD isn't getting in the game, I'm genuinely going to miss that glimmer of hope that I had right before they show the DLC fighter. I do have a connection to RtDL and my desire for BWD was very casual in the beginning but I found many reasons to love the character over time and that will not end after the final Smash character is revealed. I'm seeing a lot of hope mostly coming from Sora fans at the moment so I give my full support to that fanbase. I'm sending my energy for the Sora Spirit Bomb for Tuesday.

While I'm not the most active person on the forum, I do enjoy coming here and reading comments and occasionally coming out of the cave. Seeing fans from many gaming franchises come together to discuss or debate about a crossover fighting game is very fun and I enjoyed having and participating in speculation, not just here but in other websites/apps like Reddit, Discord, or even 4chan.

Plus, with my current IRL situation finally moving forward and I will be heading toward a proper adulthood life at last, this moment really is an end of an era for me and I'm glad to be sharing this moment with the community even with all of its ups and downs.

 

[DaybreakHorizon]

Smh. One last ride.

There's no need to put the Mii Costumes in front because the world (read: fandom) is already gonna burn regardless of what happens lol

 

[The Stoopid Unikorn]

There's no need to put the Mii Costumes in front because the world (read: fandom) is already gonna burn regardless of what happens lol

That's exactly why they SHOULD do it; if the world's gonna burn either way, might as well make a good fire.

 

[Mamboo07]

I'm gonna watch the world burn on 6th of October.

 

[DaybreakHorizon]

even though it was a pain to argue with Deetractors

I'm sorry but do all Bandana Waddle Dee fans call BWD haters Deetractors?

For some reason that's so funny how the **** did I not know about this until now???

 

[SMAASH! Puppy]

Hee I forgot about this. I dunno if they still do, but it was used all the time in the Bandana Waddle Dee thread for he previous game.

EDIT: It really takes me back. I remember posting an image of "Bandana Lee", which was Bandana Dee, but with pigtails (originally it was just a typo).

Synchronize your death watches, everyone

 

[Trevenant]

Showing mii costumes first just seems like they're deliberately trying to show what characters aren't in the game so they will be viewed with the same pessimism and hate they always are viewed with. Showing the character first means people will finally see that smash is closing shop and would view any representation as representation for a character who wasn't gonna get any otherwise. Starting on the character is unobjectively the better outcome here IMO, as it'll blanket the general reactions at least a bit.

It's gonna be bad enough that this is the character Ultimate is ending on so for all the people in it to see the storm that occurs, then I'd imagine it would already be close enough to the peak. Definitely more than enough to go around, although I'm more so caring about the characters identity than the general reaction tbh.

 

[SMAASH! Puppy]

I don't have one. I'd rather not know when I'm going to die. It would give me too mu-

I've done nothing but teleport bread for the past three days!

 

[GilTheGreat19]

Looks like we're heading to Smash, maggot!

"Do you have ANY idea who I am?"
AHHHHHHHH

*I'm KIND of a big deal...

 

[FreeFox]

And we reach the end of another day. The closer we get, the harder it gets to wait to see it.

 

[ARandomZoomer]

If you're going to do that, you would have to cut one of the other original fighters, and then we're getting into a slippery slope of hypotheticals.

I'd posit that after the mandated Pokemon spot, a second spot for another original Pokemon would be rather low priority. There are a lot of popular Pokemon from previous gens, but that didn't stop us from getting only Greninja and only Incineroar these past two times.


Sure, the presentation brutally murdered the hopes of countless Geno fans. Viewer discretion should be advised.

They could've also had one of them be dlc but that's also more hypotheticals. Not too sure how to look at that last point given how Smash 4 led directly into Ultimate in terms of development and Ultimate has very few newcomers in the base game. I might just be optimistic on this but I don't see it as a complete game over for the older sets of characters for games rotating casts.

I really wanna see what tomorrow's POTD is
The last one before the CP11 pic will arrive

 

[DaybreakHorizon]

And we reach the end of another day. The closer we get, the harder it gets to wait to see it.

Was wondering how long it'd take for me to see one of these. I'm surprised it's taken until now to be completely honest.

 

[GilTheGreat19]

Also 1 hour it's Kazuya review day

 

[Royalty1702]

I need another Grinch/mural leak tomorrow just for the chaos. Like, just go ballistic, do every fake leak trick in the book.

 

[Noipoi]

Please, no one would fall for it.

Right?

INCORRECT

I'll probably bail in a bit so I can talk about him when I wake up rather than before bed. lol

Man, I feel really glad this isn't the actual last POTD before the end, because if so, I'd be going nuts claiming how this is a hint for Porky like how the three fingers pose was for the ginal character.

I think that was the peak of Smash speculation, we can never reach those highs or lows again.

 

[Fluttershy64]

I'm with @Nekoo on ripping the bandaid early like they did with Sephiroth's presentation, so yeah, actually would prefer this lol.

I don't think this would be a good idea. I would imagine that we get Mii costumes based off of the series that the character comes from. Then they don't always do that. 4 of the 10 was like that.

 

[GilTheGreat19]

Seeing Sora trending yet again made me have a thought

Steve trended HARD after his reveal but I don't think he necessarily crashed Twitter (literally) because Twitter itself crashed at the same time by coincidence.

I GENUINLY think Sora could trend more than Steve, and maybe even break twitter. And ngl, I look forward to seeing smiles on so many people's faces if it's really him.

 

[Kokiden]

Had a dream it was Vergil.

I'd be stoked if it was him but I'm not getting my hopes up at all.

The presentation is happening at 1am my time, but I will stay up for it even though I'll need to wake up early.

Might as well since it's going to be the last one.

 

[Deleted member]

Anyways @Tougon what do you think about my posts about homura from madoka magica? I'm trying to bait get as much feedback as I can.

i agree, she's pretty irrelevant until madoka 4 drops and turns her into sephiroth, then she's in 100%. if we can have two roys, we can have two homuras

Yo, how have you been doing? It's been a while

Yeah it's actually crazy. Who knows when the next smash will be, or if it's going to have that many characters. And yeah I will miss that glimmer of hope and talking about Rhythm heaven even if the chances always felt low for Rhythm heaven to be a dlc. At this point I just hope that the franchise at least don't die and that it gets a Switch games eventually.

And for me too the end of Smash is the end of an era. I start following speculation as soon as Smash 4 was officially announced with Villager trailer and I was at high school. Now Ultimate is ending and I'm finishing my Bachelor degree and normally I should start a master next year or so. Pretty crazy to look back into all that.

 

[Nemuresu]

Lemme just say this: if I'm around for another speculation game some three to five years into the future (not that I see that happening), this will be the very first character I'll be supporting:

Can't really say I'll do that for others because there's four fighting game characters now and I don't think they'll have a warranted spot, except Ryu, because, well, he is Ryu, I'd be more surprised if he actually didn't appear in the next title or had to wait until DLC.

 

[DanganZilla5]

I'm gonna miss scrolling through this thread and looking at all the interesting and ******** crazy theories people have come up with. It's been a daily routine for me for the past two years.

Well Kingdom hearts is a franchise owned by the biggest company in the world, if he made an apperance in a crossover by one of the other biggest companies in the world i would think that would make a splash.
