Official DLC Speculation Discussion Volume II

[SKX31]

Missed opportunity.

When Steve leaked, why did no one say "Be there, or be SQUARE"?

Everyone was indeed here.

And so everyone was Enix.

I love how these three were posted within seconds of each other l m a o

The duality of mankind.

Presented without comment.

The duality of man:
EDIT: DANGIT! 'd

Great minds think alike!

 

[Eeeyah911]

Moment of truth.

 

[Strong-Arm]

Its time Ronaldbros, this is his time to shine!

 

[Diddy Kong]

I honestly would rather have a new strikers game(Athough it will probably never happen) then pass 3, dont @ me,that was my childhood

Mario Strikers? Yeah played it on Wii a lot. Didn't own the game, a friend did. One time I got extremely angry with him, I was 9-0 ahead of him, and he proceeded to beat me regardless, using the same damn technique with Boo, using his ability to become invisible and pass the goalie. Never been so angry with a game

 

[Verde Coeden Scalesworth]

I'm not bothered by leaks. But as long as people spoiler it, I see no issues. If people are doing trollish leaks, somebody'll see and report it or they probably won't be an issue.

I'm not surprised by this anyway. It's the first big direct. People are giddy enough that they'll leak it because it's such a huge event. It's hype for them too, since it gives them the ability to get some clout again.

Not saying leaking is a "good" thing in itself, of course. But that's a different thought.

 

[BlondeLombax]

I think I’ll go and walk my dog while the first few announcements get underway. I’ll be back.

What kind of dog do you have?

 

[Eeeyah911]

See you guys under the moonlight. I'm going to go ride the Chocobo Ride.

 

[NonSpecificGuy]

Aight ladies and gents and others please move all Direct discussion over to the Direct thread!

Official - SPOILER FREE: Nintendo Direct Thread 2/17/2021

Yeah, fair warning to everyone, if you don’t want to get spoiled don’t visit the Newcomer speculation thread.

[NonSpecificGuy]

Welcome back, everyone. How bout that Pyra/Mythra?

 

[Michael the Spikester]

Pleasantly surprised and pleased actually. I was wanting Elma but they'll do being not only from the same series but more female representation. Honestly wasn't expecting it at all.

Poor Rex though. Got Chrom'd.

Spring Man: First time?

 

[True Blue Warrior]

Welcome back, everyone. How bout that Pyra/Mythra?

Pretty decent.

 

[Deleted member]

Best character ever don’t @ me. I was screaming the whole way through the trailer this is how it feels to get your most wanted in huh

 

[Tree Gelbman]

Welcome back, everyone. How bout that Pyra/Mythra?

As soon as he said ''Pyra is missing"

My first thought was ''Duh, because she's in Smash fool. You gotta go find her in Smash."

 

[SMAASH! Puppy]

So it looks like they were right. Rex was indeed disconfirmed and they decided to instead just add his Blades instead because they still wanted a Xenoblade Chronicles character...

Yeah can't say I agree with this decision.

 

[drag0nscythe]

So, looks bad for KOSMOS. maybe a mii costume? Please Namco. atleast a mii costume.
And, was Pyra on that list of 40 that was from 4chan?

 

[RaintheCriminalWhirlwind]

STOKED AS HECK!

 

[Guybrush20X6]

Well that was a swerve.

And for the character that this very thread railed against so much for being the death of character designs.
I wonder if Sakurai is doing it on purpose...

I'm looking forward to a new Transform character. Bringing back the Sheik and Zamus gimmicks.

 

[Shroob]

"Nintendo fans hate Nintendo characters in Smash!"


No, we just want interesting ones. Pyra/Mythra are interesting ones.

 

[N3ON]

Here are my thoughts on the Direct

Here are my thoughts on Pyra/Mythra

Here is how I feel about Camelot's project not being GS

Here are my thoughts on several leaks biting the dust

Here's how I feel about probably having to wait until around E3 for the next character

Here's where I'm at about the imminent arguments from those with the memory of a goldfish that we're done getting third-parties

And here is a reaction that at no point did I get close to

But Splatoon's cool. Splatoon's cool, and the Famicom Detective Club localization was a nice surprise. Oh, and what Square chooses to name their RPGs is always worth a good laugh. xD

 

[PLATINUM7]

Excited for them. Am surprised how they were implemented.

Funny they covered up just a little bit more skin with Pyra. Gotta keep the game for good boys and girls.

 

[Mushroomguy12]

Joe Nintendo fan who hasn't played XB2: Well, time to go buy the game where the newest Smash fighters are from!

Joe Nintendo fan later: Excuse me, what the f-

 

[Rie Sonomura]

well... at least i hope Pythra come with X music if I can't get Elma and they don't do the more fighters in development thing.

on the other hand i am now 100% backing Octoling, Reimu and a LoL rep. not so confident in KOS-MOS, but thanks to Splatoon 3 i have renewed hope for the Veemo

 

[DittoInDisguise]

Very meh, the cast of anime swordpeople with magic grows larger.

At least the stance switching makes the choice mildly interesting and another woman (well two in this case) for the roster is nice.

 

[Dr. Jojo Phantasma]

Best outcome! I don't like Rex at all, but I love the Aegis girls and was hoping they would be standalone.

 

[Teeb147]

Welcome back, everyone. How bout that Pyra/Mythra?

Pleasantly happy :D

Sorry Rex fans, but yeahhh

 

[LiveStudioAudience]

Huh, I guess in regards to voice theory it was Mythra and Pyra as the two characters in one package all along.

 

[Diddy Kong]

Welcome back, everyone. How bout that Pyra/Mythra?

Cool additions. Great flashy movesets. All am worried about is that Mythra is the supposed "extra 6th character" of this Fighter Pass.

 

[Simplythe1]

Im not sure how to feel right now, another of my most wanteds getting chrom'd yet again left me feeling a bit down in the dumps....

 

[cashregister9]

I wanted Pyra and Mythra solo, but I never thought they would get in without Rex

(I like rex, but i'm not the biggest fan of his design.)

 

[drag0nscythe]

Best parts of the direct for me was the Triangle RPG and Saga Frontier HD.

 

[Rie Sonomura]

at the very least, Rex being Chrom'd pretty much proves that DLC costumes do, in fact, deconfirm

 

[Michael the Spikester]

Cool additions. Great flashy movesets. All am worried about is that Mythra is the supposed "extra 6th character" of this Fighter Pass.

She isn't. She'd paired with Pyra in the same way as Pokemon Trainer whose Pokemon has their own numbers.

 

[BlondeLombax]

Welcome back, everyone. How bout that Pyra/Mythra?

Never played. Don't care. Looks fun. Ad infinitum.
Now, to wrap up some unfinished business...

What kind of dog do you have?

Two; an Irish wolfhound and a Maltese. The little one hates the big one a lot of the time, but they get along or ignore one another for the most part.

 

[SMAASH! Puppy]

Cool additions. Great flashy movesets. All am worried about is that Mythra is the supposed "extra 6th character" of this Fighter Pass.

No. The box is still there, so it means that there are actually 7 characters in the pass.

EDIT: Well, unless there are more transforming characters.

 

[Commander_Alph]

So with the inclusion of Pythra (Pyra & Mythra) and th obvious shade that they did to Rex does that mean this is a sign that mii costume yet again being passed off, since we know that Sakurai and Nintendo really wanted to include a Xeno character from the start and literally considering Rex first?

 

[Wunderwaft]

This character is flaming hot, both figuratively and literally.

I'm glad Xeno got another character after it seemed to have been robbed in the base game. I thought Rex or KOS-MOS might be the character but nope haha it was a Pyra/Mythra stance character. I talked about how Smash kind of needed a stance character like a year ago and we finally got one!

 

[Speed Weed]

yo if we're still getting characters who previously missed the cut then LET'S GO ALUCARD WE GOT THIS BROS LET'S ****ING GO

 

[Eldrake]

All typewriter monkey leaks are dead.
Long live Pyra / Mythra.

 

[PeridotGX]

I thought that solo Pyra or Mythra without Rex was a really dumb idea.

Now that it's officially in Smash... I don't know.
