Jaffar is overused and overrated. <_<;;

I wanna see atleast Ike in there. And as for a mage character I'd pick Soren. He's the first mage who really takes a important role in FE (as far as I know... n.n;) and he'd have a nice moveset of fast spells and perhaps even a knife?

FE characters should be restricted to lords only, cause other characters are optional and have a minor role in the story.

Why does everyone think there's a Lords only rule? The reason 2 lords were added to Melee is simple.
1) To represent Fire Emblem. Marth is the main Fire Emblem Character
2) To advertise for Fire Emblem 6. Roy is the main character
3) They both can be cloned.

We don't need to represent FE anymore and a good reason not to add any more Lords is because they have a limited and un-unique move pool.

The other classes from 1st to last that I think should be added are.

1. Mage/Sage or Shaman/Druid (Best Move Set)
2. Archer/Sniper (Like Pit)
3. Caviler/Paladin (Could use a mount character)
4. Peguases Knight (Flying character great for ariel battles, and sakurai said he wanted more ariel battles)
5. Wyvern Rider (same as above except stronger and slower)
6. Mamkute Character (they play a significant role and would have a unique moveset)
7. Theif/Ninja (just because their bad all lol)
8. Mercenary/Hero (meh sword but larger than a lords and slower)
9. Nomad/Nomad Trooper(their archers on a horse and can use swords pretty well)
10. Lord (no more their boring)

soren would be a horrible choice for a sage and jaffar is a way better choice than soren anyway

First of all, Marth is NOT bad***. In his game, he didn't wear pants and he sucked at fighting. He's great in Melee, but that doesn't make him bad***.

Second of all, Roy is a clone of Marth since he was unlocked first. Sigurd, Lyn, Hector, and Ephraim deserve to be in Brawl. They're some of the stronger lords of the FE series.

Sigurd- The most popular lord in Japan, most people don't care for him just because his game was in Japan which is ignorant. Especially because he was one of(if not THE) the best FE lords in the FE series. He uses swords and lances, but is most commonly portrayed with a lance.

Lyn- A female swordfighter who is the first character you meet in FE7. She's extremely fast and one of the best characters if you level her up right.

Hector- Also from FE7, who is a huge axe-wielding fighter. Brawl needs more heavyweights(for balance) and him using an axe makes him unique.

Ephraim- Eirika's twin brother from FE8. He uses a lance, and would be a normal-sized character. He's extremely strong, but is limited to only using the lance.

FE needs to be represented by lords, because the story revolves around them, not the other classes.

^Are you kidding? This isnt about who is most significant. It's about how well they will play in melee. Doc Mario and Pichu were in Melee despite them being significant characters. It doesnt make any sense to say Lords have more of a chance than normal characters.

Yes it does, for reasons said in my previous post.

Pichu and Doc were added at the last minute. I wouldn't mind characters who aren't essential to the story from FE being included in Brawl, AFTER they put in the most important characters that is.

He has pants in the artworks of the Book 2 (Fire Emblem 3 was a remake of the first and a continuation, entitled as Book 1 and 2), the anime series (which was dropped at the 2nd chapter), the official Enix manga and ultimately the worshipped Trading Card Game.

Marth from Mystery of the Emblem
Trading Card Game
Anime Boxart

Marth is a weakling in the games, he has a good evasion and skill (hit %), but as every rapier lord (except Eirika), when he promotes and gets the pwning weapon (Falchion) his fighting potential increases amazingly.

And Brawl is for stars only. Jaffar isn't a star, as Erk, Canas, Kent and dozen of good characters that have been appearing in every FE game since 1990. These aren't the face of his titles, while lords are.
So, characters that have chance are Marth, Roy, Sigurd, Celice, Lyndis, Hector, Ephraim, Eirika and Ike.

Of course, but he's not as useful and/or good as the lords I named above. I want him in though, because he's the face of the franchise. I'm also glad that he decided to wear pants after FE1.

Mostly FE, but a heck of lot of others seem to dress strangely too.

I only have 23 words for you, an abbreviation, a question mark and a period.

Have you played Fire Emblem or do you just hate it? There are plenty of other FE characters who deserve to be in Brawl.

I have played the Fire Emblem games. It is a great series I just think they should keep Marth and Roy. They're a great team and strong characters. They are great characters to represent the series. The other characters are great but Brawl should stay with Marth and Roy.

Ok, but what do you think about other FE additions? Such as Lyn, Hector, Ephraim etc.

Adding another character from the FE series sounds good to me. Anyone from your list would be a great addition.

They MUST be adding a character from FE9(PoR). For christ sake they added a Fire Emblem Stage from FE9. How could they not have a character from FE9?? I guess it will be Ike, I never played FE9 but what characters could possibly get in other than Ike? Please post pics up for noobs like me.

What's the difference between Ike and Marth? They look the same to me.

Moderators should make a sticky thread with the "The castle stage is not from FE PoR, it's from FE1-3!". Seriously, the flags are totally different.

The difference is the same between Link and Marth. They both use sword, yet the styles are pretty different. Ike's one is rough and powerful, while Marth's one is agile, stylish and weak.

OK, so Mic_Fox is wrong, but that doesn't matter. The fact is that castle isn't from Daein nor Path of Radiance.

Ike is a little faster then Marth and a bit more powerful. He is in between Roy and Marth in strength.

Stating the obvious, at least one FE character is being considered for development.

the last thing i want in smash is another roy/marth clone. so for me, any of the sword users is out. Lyn might work, since she does get to use a bow, which means she won't be a complete clone, and some of the axe weilders would be nice too (Hector especially. he was a freakin' bear in my game ). what i'd really love to see, though, is Nasir or Ena (dragon form), Jaffar or Matthew (matt was better in my game so i'd lean towards him) or a caster. Soren is definitely a good choice... And if the models wouldnt have been rediculously huge, i'd have recommended Heath, Haar, or Cormag. wyvern riders are so strong and useful in FE, and they always are in my final party :(

Of course, and I say Marth will represent FE as Link does with the Zelda games. At least two more FE chracters will be included after him. There are too many good characters to choose from, but let's pray for a compact roster. The rest is on Sakurai shoulders.

Me personally, celice

But that is highly debated. Statistically, Celice is superior than Sigurd, the argument is that Sigurd is more useful, Celice is surrounded by bad mofos(Lakche, Shannan, Alteena, Leaf, Aless, Faval, Sety, Teeny, and Yuria), while sigurd isnt(Ayra and Levins all hes got).

And hector? please... he isnt in sigurd league

Also Celices no Ayra or lakche, except with his holy weapon tyrfing at 50 kills then hes better
Hell have 4 skills if he has 50 kills(pursuit, Awareness, (50 kills)berserk, and Prayer)

So make sure you abuse Sigurd with tyrfing and kill as much as you can so when Celice gets it its close or at 50 kills, so hell be even more badass
Sigurd is more useful, everyone in Gen 2 is waaaaaaaay too good.

And Hector is statistically superior to every other Lord so far. I'm not talking about equipping Celice with that overpowered Tyrfing. In FE4, the stat caps are the base stat + 15 (with the exception of Luck).

So, that would mean the Lord Knight class caps are:

HP 80 | STR 25 | MAG 15 | SKL 22 | SPD 22 | LUK 30 | DEF 22 | RES 18
And Hector's Great Lord caps are:

HP 60 | STR 30 | SKL 24 | SPD 24 | LUK 30 | DEF 29 | RES 20
(Being that they are still different games, Hector has no magic at all, and the HP cap had been lowered after FE5, but whatever).

Research what you're saying before you make any claims. >.>

I really wish everyone here played both the Japanese games(at least FE4) AND the American FE games, then this would be fair.

It's hard to convince someone that Sigurd is a great character when people don't even know who he is, but luckily he's popular in Japan so we'll probably be seeing him in Brawl.

In Castle Caelin with Lady Lyndis
I think Marth and Roy should be replaced as the games they came from are 'Japan only' games. (Lucky B*******!!!) Maybe Ike with Marth's moveset and Lyn with the Mani Katti and a bow. If there is room then add Ephraim. Not Hector as (for me) he was similar to bandits. Strong but stupid and we all know where the bandits ended up! Black Knight would be cool but... He is FAR too solw and just trying to jump would break his back and if he actually managed to get airbourne, he'd break his legs upon landing. Nasir and Ena would be stupidly large and obviously a problem when coming to smaller platforms... ouch! Cavaliers and Paladins?!? Have you even thought about that!!! The attacks would be good but just think about jumping and rolling and hanging off the edge! Pegasus could fly and trying to kick a horse-on-wings off the stage would become a Major problem. Wyvers are so much cooler. (Not the ones off PoR as the riders ride on their necks... that has to be some sort of joke.) But they would have the same problems as Pegasus. Magic users are an option but if it is ANYTHING like Zelda then that would suck... They should specialise in long distance attacks and need to stay away from combat as melee moves would be weak. A system like that could work well. Assassins are a good idea but the dagger(s) would mean a poor attack range and assassins sneaking about and teleporting (thingy. I don't know WHAT to call it) would be hard for anyone to follow.

Lords are well known compared to other classes which is a shame as Nephenee would make a good addition as well as Jaffar but Theif fans could be lucky as in the new FE game, Sothe (From FE9) will be the main character. If Sakurai wants more advertisement then Sothe will be in. Boo.
