Official DLC Speculation Discussion Volume II

[regulus tera]

If Maximilian says he knows who the character is then I believe him. I expect trolling from Alpharad, not Max. He doesn't play like that with fans.

 

[GalacticPetey]

Max is about to start streaming maybe someone should ask him lol

Again, this just feels like trolling.

 

[Swamp Sensei]

The thing that gets me is that if two youtubers in different spheres are bragging that they know the identity of the character...

The info is probably very wide spread.

1. If it's only a few people who know, you stay silent
2. I don't think Max and Alpha interact at all.

 

[Baba]

I don't get the point of saying "I know who the character is" other than to make other people think you're cool and important. It always feels show-offy to me.

 

[TheCJBrine]

I hope tomorrow we get a chance to become [Big Shots!] on the [Nintendo Switch family of Nintendo videogame entertainment systems].

You ever have a secret? Like, a big one? Sometimes you just want blurt it out.

As for the show-off thing...

Of course, its Alpharad. Dude is as show-offy as one can get.

Max is the surprising party here, but his comment was in response.

 

[Shroob]

I think the question is why would Max and Alpharad know.


They're as different content-wise as you can get.


Alpharad's funni haha channel

And Max's a competitive FGC guy who's worked on games like Killer Instinct

 

[Will]

"someone" is going to be the entire chat wdym

 

[GalacticPetey]

And while Jwittz and The Completionist did see Cloud, IIRC they never talked about it beforehand. I feel like if Youtubers got to see the character they'd be under NDA and wouldn't be able to talk about it.

 

[BlondeLombax]

Woah, really? I didn't think Max was actually on the dev team for a game or two!

Unless you're talking in terms of feedback, in which case that's a little less surprising, but still pretty cool.

Both are watching this thread as guests and laughing at us. Hi guys!

Clearly the final fighter is funni haha Waluigi, designed to kill the FGC smash scene like Bayonetta did in Smash 4.

He's gone on record in a lot of his vids to talk about his time working on the KI reboot.

 

[Swamp Sensei]

It would be really funny if Max and Alpha heard two entirely different characters.

And both were wrong.

He worked on Some of the Trailers, I believe starting with Season 2

Good to see Sakurai acknowledging one of the top 3 star fox games

2002年のきょう､『スターフォックスアドベンチャー』(Star Fox Adventures)北米で発売!!
『スターフォックス』シリーズとしてはかなり毛色が異なるのは､元々『ダイナソープラネット』という名前で作られていた作品だから｡

Truth be told, I just tune in to dumb stuff like Mario Party or Death by Soda. I'm not too into fighting games, but I'm sure I'd like to look at the genre a little bit more one of these days.

 

[Gnateb]

Woah, this is short notice. Did I miss any big rumors (that are probably going to be debunked tomorrow?

Theres a rumor that there's a direct tomorrow.

I think it's pretty fake. I mean, people have been telling me we gotta wait til like... December for news.

Today in 2002, "Star Fox Adventures" will be released in North America !! The coat color of the "Star Fox" series is quite different because it was originally made under the name "Dinosaur Planet". Crystal first appeared and later joined Star Fox. #Smash Bros SP

You remember how burnt out and crushed we were on Tuesday? Felt like the thread was gonna eat itself. Funny how fast things changed.

You heard it here first folks, Krystal confirmed for the final fighter.

 

[Shroob]

Yo


Let's assume the Max/Alpha stuff isn't just a joke and means something.


Max likes traditional fighting games

His favorite game is MvsC2


Will WW@ BRO IT'S ****ING AMINGO TIME BAY-BEH

What, you didn't have faith that I was right like I always am?

 

[Gnateb]

Wait does Max Dood claim to know the final fighter or something? I've seen people talking about him a lot. For some reason he's the last person I'd expect to go public about knowing something like that lol

 

[FreeFox]

PSIGuy those are some very interesting claims you're making regarding CP11 and connections to people with insider info. Do you remember the exact phrasing this individual used when they claimed CP11 was Master Chief? Depending on what they said or were told and how it was phrased, that may not necessarily confirm that character as a fighter, but they could also still be "in the game" as a Mii costume, for instance. It's also possible that this individual could have been given poisoned info depending on his sources.

Mind you NateDrake seems to disagree with this assertion:

The former, yes. The latter I would say has some percentage of a chance.

— Direct-Feed Games (@DirectFeedGames) September 23, 2021

Would you be willing to direct us to this twitter user with a casual connection to Monolith Soft as a way to help corroborate these claims?

Is this person reliable?

Well, even after the direct was confirmed, there were people still fighting against any possibility of hope. Thinking there is a chance nothing gets revealed. Its a psychological phenomenon. Negative thoughts breed more negative thoughts.

I wonder...

I think, since it leaked, it's probably a western character or a Japanese Dev with a larger western presence.

 

[PSIGuy]

i can't believe the dev negotiations were to put an entire game in smash as the last fighter.

Smash Ultimate

Really is


Gonna take you for a ride

 

[Mushroomguy12]

It is funny to me how both the last fighter of FP1 and FP2 ended up having their reveal trailers take place when I had to be at work/school/etc. but none of the other fighters of either pass.

I'm gonna say it. You're not gonna like it.

If Max knows, something tells me it'd be from Square or Capcom. He associates with Capcom a lot (and Square too sometimes, I think he received official recognition from the FF7 Remake devs for his dedication)

Dude you can’t be throwing around the F word like that.

You're right.

I don't like that.

Then you better hope they're memeing you.

 

[ryuryunonoroi]

When it was brought up first it was in passing. When I asked about Chief later they had screencaps for Chief, not before then.


for Chief it was replying to someone asking if there was no more dlc with "one more" and an image

Twitter user is Pure, talking about Pyra after the fact. he's not a leaker and doesn't consider himself an insider but his Xeno insight is something else. this should go without saying please don't ask them about smash.

That response to that interaction comes off to me as more of a s***post than a genuine leak. Facetiously implying that there's going to be a CP12 and it's going to be chief.

Gonna have to call baloney on that one. Looks like both of my hypotheses still remain intact.

Is this person reliable?

The general concensus appears to be "sometimes".

 

[DarkFalcon]

I don't understand how people aren't figuring out the last fighter. It's really obvious if you put all the pieces together?

The end of the last fighter pass was Byleth. If you take that fact and subtract it by the square root of infinity, the last fighter is Byleth 2.

[Polan]

wait is there a leak

 

[Dukefire]

Well, as a wise man once said when seeing potential smash leaks. There is only one thing to do....
