I was kinda happy we didn't get Chrom because we got Robin instead. I like both and I am sorry for the Chrom supporters, but personally for me, Robin > Chrom. It isn't that I'm happy that Chrom supporters feel sad or something; that would be ridiculous.
I know, I customized the hell out of my Robins too, but still. The robe shoulda given it away. If you don't recognize the main character, you didn't play the game.To be fair, Robin is customizable, so some people might have heavily customized their avatar to the point where it looks a lot different to the default one. All I did was change the hair color to blue, so I instantly recognized him when he was revealed.
Which I've always thought was really odd, considering...
Unfortunately so. I saw someone in the "Most/Least wanted" thread put Shulk in their least wanted JUST because of a few people who claimed he would be slot competition for Isaac. Not even sure who says that anymore, honestly. Granted, that thread is a cesspool thanks to the OP's brilliant idea to include least wanted (the flamebait is strong with that one...and the Shulk-bashing is pretty gross at times). I finally got around to unwatching it.
Isaac + Shulk on the same roster would be the best thing ever for me. They aren't alike at all aside from the fact that they are both from JRPGs, but since JRPGs are kinda underrepped, I see no problem with having both at all.
They should be informed that when Isaac and Shulk submit their applications to SSB4, Sakurai is not basing their resume on anything else, but what they bring to Smash Brothers.
Nope, all of the supporters are purely from Smashboards..
GET HYPE SON
In the heat of the moment, what are you supposed to believe? Plus, I was familiar with any wind spells looking like tiny tornadoes, not like Monado Purge (and be honest here, it really does look an awful lot like it). I wasn't expecting Shulk at all in the trailer, but for the two seconds before Robin popped up after using Elwind I was really confused.
My avatar looked like this (wow, this is a handy picture to have):To be fair, Robin is customizable, so some people might have heavily customized their avatar to the point where it looks a lot different to the default one.

Again, I somehow got seventy percent through Xenoblade while forgetting that Monado Purge actually existed. So, I guess I was lucky I didn't mistake it... Tbh, the similarities can be a little startling, so people thinking "Shulk!" is an understandable mistake.GET HYPE SON

And I had no problem recognizing Robin. Okay, I might have played the demo (which didn't let you customize the avatar's appearance at all) 1500 times, but you have to go past the default MU look to get to the customisation part. :b
I remembered that Monado Purge existed, I just didn't know it was so handy. I also thought that Speed and Shield were basically the same thing. I ended up going through the game using basically only Buster, Enchant, and Shield for Monado arts. No wonder my first playthrough was so hard.
I didn't realize what Shield was good against until the second to last area, so I had just been spamming it up til then and being confused when it didn't work. Then the game became a lot easier.
I am so lucky that I had a friend to tell me to level Shield up all the way before the final boss, otherwise it would have been so much more difficult than it already was. I don't think I realized the differences between the Monado arts until I watched a blind LP of the game and some helpful commenters were telling the guy playing what does what and when to use things.I didn't realize what Shield was good against until the second to last area, so I had just been spamming it up til then and being confused when it didn't work.

At least the differences will be more noticeable in Smash.
Ha, this geek actually reads. Nerrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrd....I just read the description of all the arts.
JESUS! This is crazy.
I think a few people said they were on there twice, though. Or were doubles removed?
So basically, fighters would rather SD and take their own stocks rather than have Shulk take them with the power of the Monado?
Although numbers don't matter (in this case), never would've thought that we'd actually come this close
But Shulk is too niche. He is also not popular AT ALL in the west.So basically, fighters would rather SD and take their own stocks rather than have Shulk take them with the power of the Monado?

Anyway I could be able to find to see if I put a word twice. Editing will take a really long time considering I have to change over 400 numbers in the list.
Eh, probably not. That would be neat though....How would everyone react if instead of a pic of the day, Sakurai revealed Shulk's reveal trailer?
Well with Hyrule Warriors coming out this week, and a supposed TV stream on Tuesday, it's highly likely. I'm more confident it'll be Ness's return as Earthbound's Japanese anniversary is this month, but the Gematsu leaker is insisting Shulk's reveal is coming soon. So yeah, hype abounds.
Any specific reason?
If anything, we are probably getting a new Assist Trophy confirmation.
<Me IRL if that happen
I would be down to clown with that.
not that I know of I think the main reason is because they have a direct every 2-3 months and we are due for a general direct
their are a few ways he could play
okay thanks
Someone else can field this better (I'm on my phone) but Shulk has a lot of mechanics that are unique to Xenoblade like Break > Topple > Daze (basically a debug system where you knock someone off balance, then trip them,and then daze them. (Basically a good duration stun)
One idea I had would be that using the Final Smash activates a "vision," where all the opponents continue to move normally while Shulk stands still until the "vision" ends. Once it does, all the opponents are locked into whatever they were doing during the "vision." Basically, the vision records their movements and locks them into it for a certain period of time, allowing Shulk to use the knowledge of what's going to happen to his advantage. However, once Shulk does something to the opponents while they're locked in their predestined actions, that will change the future and allow them to move normally again. Maybe Shulk could also get a power boost to make the Final Smash more effective.
It could make Shulk invincible during his Final Smash, not being damageable since he sees up coming attacks while the Monado is fully powered.
