Ike

[Aninymouse]

Ike subforum when?

Oh man, the worst part is we have to wait until at least Monday to learn anything else about him

 

[KuroganeHammer]

ALSO THE IKE AVATARS HAVE BEGUN

 

[Zatchiel]

My body is ready for Ike subforum.

 

[Neo Zero]

Absolutely stoked to see the Radiant Hero return. I remember when Ike was first revealed for Brawl, first newcomer since the original 5, and I was just blown away by how he looked. It was Ike's Smash Bros reveal that got me to buy Path of Radiance, and I've been a Fire Emblem fan every since. Ike was my Brawl main as well, he might not of been the best, but he was so fun to use, the sheer power of his blows was just great.

I was scared so much that he would be axed, yet he's returned once again, older and stronger than ever before, and I can experience the same hype I had when Ike was revealed for Brawl, and it feels just as magical now. Welcome home Ike.

That was beautiful.

And I have much the same story, though I did buy Sacred Stones first. But really, Ike's games really turned me from, "Yeah, Fire Emblem isn't just for the Japanese," to "Wow, I really like Fire Emblem!"

 

[Ussi]

Lets just say Ike's reveal makes me want the game more.

My main in brawl, it would have left a bad taste in my mouth if he got cut.

 

[Xhampi]

Not a Ike main by any means (I can't play well a swordman in smash for my life) but pretty happy to see him as I learn to be good at smash (well by casual standard) thanks to Ike users, it brings back a lot of good memories to see him return.
Welcome back, Ike sensei =)

 

[Spazzy_D]

Grats Ike fans! Not my main or anything, but the first Fire Emblem character in Smash that I enjoyed using from time to time so I'm glad to see him back. I really want to see if they changed his neutral special at all!

I've been a bit worried about him and Lucas for a while now, but I always felt that they were in a good place as Ike was the last home console lord and Lucas was the only portable Mother protagonist. Since this game is separating home console and portable content, it just kind of made sense to me they would both be back. Half right so far!

 

[FalKoopa]

RD Ike is best Ike

wtf ike your arms are huge and Brawl Ike's arms look like wet noodles

Aww c'mon. Don't say that. Ike was Brawl's heavy-hitter who didn't look like a heavy-hitter. I preferred his PoR look myself.

And Ike sub-forum?

 

[Moon Monkey]

They grow up so fast

 

[Megadoomer]

Glad to see Ike return. I was hoping, given the complete lack of information that this week had been giving us, that a veteran would be revealed today, and I'm glad to see that it's someone who some people thought was going to be cut based on a supposed "pattern" from a single game (Roy being cut from Brawl in favour of Ike).

This really seems to bode well for quite a few Brawl veterans, in my opinion; I never really used Ike, but I'm happy for all of the people that did.

 

[Bladeviper]

ike was my main in brawl but tbh i am completely shocked he is returning. I thought for sure they would put in an awakening character and also leave the fe roster to two characters. That being said I am happy he is back but would still love to see a third character from fe.

 

[Oddyesy]

Will they reveal Ike in E3?
let's just hope he is?

Assuming Ike does return(Not that I mind. He's more of a character than Roy. ), I pray that Sakurai doesn't use his God awful Awakening design. You know, this?

Spoiler

Lmao

 

[Vann Accessible]

Assuming Ike returns, we are excepting his older, Radiant Dawn look correct?

Honestly, I think his more robust appearance suits his slower, more power packed play style than his svelte look he had in Brawl.

This guy sure is smart.

I'm glad Ike's back. He's my favorite FE lord, the only heavyweight character I like playing as, in Brawl, and kicking him out for Chrom would've saddened me.

I like this picture more because it highlights how much better the visuals are in comparison to Brawl. Seriously, just look at that cape.

 

[Pega-pony Princess]

It's official. Ike is sexy as ****. I liked Ike's Por outfit more before, but..I think I've changed my mind. O.o Sakurai you sly old dog.

 

[Guybrush20X6]

And the 30th Smasher is revealed. I wonder if he's had any major changes besides the biceps.

 

[MasterOfKnees]

Man, Brawl Ike looks like a ****ing wimp all of a sudden. Smash 4 Ike looks so incredibly awesome, I used to prefer the PoR design, but no more.

I just like how Ike actually looks as strong as he has been hitting. In Brawl, Ike looked pretty scrawny to be hitting as hard as he does.

 

[Mario & Sonic Guy]

Just as a notification, until the new sub-forum is made, please keep all Ike topics in this very thread.

Huh. I always thought that he looked pretty powerful. I guess I just don't get out much. Also, what changes would help him? I think that I read that Sm4sh was gonna have higher hitstun, so Ike's moves don't necessarily have to be faster, since if the hitstun thing is true you could just follow up with combos unlike in Brawl with it's horrible hitstun where people were basically free to move about the cabin on hit.

 

[8-peacock-8]

Cool. He's back.

 

[Neo Zero]

Cool. He's back.

In pog form.

Sub forum where are you?

 

[Z1GMA]

Congratulations, Ike Mains. Enjoy this moment;

 

[Deleted member]

I'm glad that Ike's back! I didn't play his games, but I do like Ike. I'm just glad that he's back for your sakes!

 

[dezeray112]

Glad to see one of my mains in Brawl back for the Wii U and 3DS versions.

I guess his inclusion does debunk a number of rumors claiming that he will be cut.

 

[Starcutter]

HOLY CRAP HE'S BUFF

 

[XionKai]

Yes, finally I will main him in ssbu -u-
like I did in brawl.

 

[Neo Zero]

HOLY CRAP HE'S BUFF

Hopefully he's buffed on top of being buff.

 

[Starcutter]

Hopefully he's buffed on top of being buff.

Wow! Then he'd be REALLY buff!

 

[8-peacock-8]

Ike isn't HUGE enough.

 

[Zatchiel]

Hopefully he's buffed on top of being buff.

YOU GOTTA HAVE MUSCLES ON YA MUSCLES

 

[LF2K]

And they said Ike wasn't returning.

 

[Gameboi834]

Hopefully he's buffed on top of being buff.

Yeah, because of all the characters Ike needs a buff.

 

[Cuban]

My main... He's back!!

 

[Warheart_666]

Dayum, look at those arms. I bet that Doc Louis must have trained Ike besides Little Mac.

Congrats Ike fans! I wasn't a big fan of Ike in Brawl, but I think he looks a lot better now and I'm looking forward to give him a second chance!

 

[Jason the Yoshi]

I'm very glad Ike has returned, I just don't want to miss him

 

[FlynnCL]

Hopefully he's buffed on top of being buff.

I hope so too... I think Ike would benefit greatly with a better mid-air jump, a neutral air that isn't full of end lag, Quick Draw having more utility and... Roy's down tilt.

God dammit, we don't want Ike to be broken. Dtilt to dair to dtilt to dair to dtilt to bair, anyone?
