I did. We need to spread the message, man. There are 2 different Gokus. Goku from DBZ (impossible choice for Smesh Bras) and Yuyuki Goku (best choice for Smesh Bras).
Honestly, I think that Goku from DBZ has more chance to be in this game than Yuyki Goku.
If Sakurai did decide to include multiple kostumes for K. Rool, do you think his name would remain the same, or would he have different names for each kostume, as though his alts were different characters? Might be a bit weird if his name is King K. Rool, yet he can don his Kaptain duds if he decides.

Maybe he would just be called K. Rool in that situation. It'd definitely make it easier.
I think they won't, because Link's Fierce Deity is the same character (kind of) in a different costume. The only character so far who have different named alt are :4bowserjr: and :4olimar:, but that's because their alt are different characters.

But I think that they should go with K.Rool honestly.

All of the Nintendo royals get their titles dropped in Smash anyway (with the exception of Dedede, but that's only so in the Western releases), so in all likelihood he's only going to go by K. Rool, without his title.

I kind of wanted to say something. It's sort of unrelated but I was thinking about it. If you are passionate about K. Rool and currently think he has no chance because of the Mii Costume, I suggest to keep going. I know building up hope to have it crushed can be awful but, united together, we have at least brought K. Rool out of his irrelevant phase (as clearly seen in the DLC trailer where he was put in the front and/or center of the entire video) and are working towards getting him (not a costume) back into games in general. And, it's not over until it's over. I'd find it foolish for Sakurai to ignore the requests and backlash that has occurred because of K. Rool's Mii costume and NOT make him a character. From what I can tell, he hasn't mentioned the subject at all, which to me sounds very suspicious (especially since his Twitter feed on that reveal day exploded with K. Rool Tweets). Remember: it's easy to deconfirm a character but it's hard to walk around a character's confirmation without revealing it (for example, if he said Mii costumes do not deconfirm characters, he will either set up a bunch of fans to disappointment by NOT including K. Rool or he would give away the next character). I wanted to talk about this because there are still a lot of people who don't think we have a chance or it's asinine to continue.

TL;DR: I wanted to say to just not give up on K. Rool and keep him relevant on Twitter and Facebook and other websites! I'm afraid that a lot of people just think that we are "butthurt" (as one Twitter person said) fans, but we can show that we are a community of passionate Smash players that want a particular crocodile king!

Ok. going back to the vote tingy.......

Question to all K.Rool fans out there..

¿Is K.Rool the ONLY character that you have voted on the Ballot so far? ¿Or is there another character that you have voted on the Ballot?


As for me, i have only voted for 5 characters so far.
The characters I have voted for are Roy (Confirmed, but not ballot fighter - Voted on my MacBook and first vote), King K. Rool (First on the Wii U, second time on the Mii Costume reveal with the MacBook), Rayman (3rd vote on my iPad), Sylux and Inkling. The Inkling (excluding the second vote to K. Rool post costume) was intended to be my last vote. Ah, I almost forgot Isaac, that makes 6 characters - and K. Rool, Isaac and Inkling comprise my top 3 most wanted. Sylux was for supporting Liquid12A's most wanted and it'd be a character I'd like to see in future Metroid games. Rayman's probably going to be locked into my top 4 position for most wanted newcomers, not to mention I think he'd be pretty interesting.

Random question: If K.Rool were any star wars character, who would you imagine him being? I imagine him being General Grievous!

I did a few from a few devices. I think I sent three or four for K.Rool, one for Wolf, Squirtle, a proper Ganondorf, and several for Ridley

I voted for K.rool on my computer and Solid Snake on my phone. That's it.

I really hope whatever moveset K. Rool has, his projectiles and traps aren't invalidated by Rosalina's Down Special. I so want a heavy character that's able to take her down consistently.

@ Pazzo. Pazzo. I believe Sakurai would be an INFJ. Let me know what you come up with.

Voting works based on the latest character you voted on. Anything before that isn't counted.

Doesn't work like that, both are hooked up to the same IP.
Where was this confirmed? Don't you think they'd allow multiple votes from the same device in case of siblings?

I thought that was only a theory? And also, it wouldn't be the same IP if she used Data on her phone and a home internet connection for her PC.

With Japanese culture counted for, Sakurai fits into a good INFJ. Especially the sensitivity and isolation.

Sorry for asking, but what does INFJ even mean?
He was discussing what Myers Briggs personality type Sakurai might have (extroversion vs. introversion, sensing vs. intuiting, thinking vs. feeling and judging vs. perceiving). The test is basically a way to assign people one of sixteen labels based on their own unique preferences, thoughts and behavior.

It's fun stuff, although not entirely on topic for a K. Rool thread...unless we try typing him too. It's not super easy to do based on the games (thanks to him being a psychopath), though ENFJ seems to be a good guess for his cartoon persona.

Been really getting used to using the heavy weights this game.
:4bowser::4dk::4dedede::4ganondorf:
As apposed to my regulars.
:4lucas::4ness::wolf:etc.
I can tell already, if K Rool gets in he will be my go to heavyweight.
Off topic a bit but you know what's funny about your signature. Its Captain Falcon running over Shulk and then a message says Don't lose to anime. The funny thing is, Captain Falcon actually has an anime (F-Zero GP Legend) while Shulk just has a traditional japanese "anime" look.

It's simply a running gag I have going on till I get a Smashified Isaac render and I make myself a new Sig.
I mainly use it for that Goofy Smile and thumbs up he gives :gova:

I voted once for Dixie Kong, at work, K. Rool at home. :p

K. Rool is my number one choice though. I'd be disappointed if he doesn't make it in but that disappointment would be somewhat quelled if one of Dixie, Cranky Kong, Rayman, Banjo Kazooie, Bomberman and Snake make it in. But if none of these characters get it in(I doubt the last 3 and Cranky will happen but am optimistic for the other 2) I once more will be disappointed, but will also be looking forward to trying out who else we get, regardless of choices it's an exciting prospect in general that we're getting more characters.

I feel so proud of us whenever I'm on the main character discussion page because I look down at all the threads (not like they suck just scroll down) and I see the only one with 1000+ pages is King K. Rool's.

A Bowser's Inside Story-style sprite of K. Rool by DeviantArtist NeoZ7. Blows his Paon one out of the water for sure IMO.



Rare-ify it a bit and I think you can have a great idea of what K. Rool would look standing in his idle pose on a stage.


Here he is alongside Bowser himself for a comparison. Just imagine Bowser a little more upright as he is in Smash 4 and it's perfect.

I see what you did there.:smirk:

1) Playing dead.
2) Not sure but I'll probably be happy with whatever it is.
3) The desert.
4) When the "Gators gonna gate" gif was posted.
5) Hopefully, but it's hard to say.
6) Wolf has always been my #1 but K. Rool has always been #2.
7) "Insert M. Bison YES! YES! meme here"
8) If K. Rool makes it in before Wolf, than I'll continue to support him. Otherwise, I'll definitely stop speculating.
9) Not one bit.

1. His personality.
2.

3.An undergroud lair.
4.When I got "one of us" and when everyone was giving speaches about how the costume means nothing to K.Rool chances. The hope that everyone had was beatiful.
5. If he is a trickster/heavyweight like everyone want him, of course.
6. My most wanted was Bowser Jr, because he is one of my favorite video game character and seemed like the logical Mario newcomer. I also want Ridley more, but that's only because I wanted to see his fans be bashed by haters just because they love their character. Aside from that, I want him and K.Rool equally.
7.This (warning, may slow down a lot your computer)
8. I will still support Ridley, Waluigi, and other character that I want in for the next Smash.
9. How could I?

1. His look and personality
2. Either his pose from DKC1 or the pose as BKuppa666 just posted.
3. I guess a cave like in the DKC tv show
4. Can't recall at the moment
5. If done right then yes
6. Yes, second character after him would be Gruntilda (although that probably won't happen unless Banjo-Kazooie gets in first)
7. Scream really loud in excitement then do a little idiot dance and listen to gangplank galleon while immediatley downloading him for both wii u and 3-ds versions of ssb4.
8. I'll probably support Banjo-Kazooie, Waluigi, Ridley, and Gruntilda afterwards.
9. Yes..haha jk you're cool. xD

1. oh jeez, just one thing?
2. No idea. possibly his gasp from DKC?
3. A undersea lab/fortress. Because it's one of the few things he hasn't done XD
4. Pretty much what Bananija said, that.. was just plain beautiful
5. If they do him RIGHT and make him a atypical trickster heavyweight with a overall good kit with effective zoning tools i think so.(but then again.. it wouldn't be the first time sakurai and his team messed potential and stuff up *cough*mewtwo,samus,andzelda*cough*)
6. nah, he was always one of my top picks and a character i really thought should have been in by now but Ridley was my most wanted overall.
7. profound joy and excitement.
8. I will be done with speculation for smash 4 but if k.rool gets in here i'll support ridley and dark samus for the next smash, definitely!
9. it's a mystery

9.Do you hate me?
1. Being a crazy villanous heavyweight, fits my tastes for a character in a fighting videogame.
2. Somewhat like Bowser but with a lot of twitching around.
3. I think a moving fortress of a kind would be the best, either flying or floating. He wants to invade DK isle, he has to get there first.
4. The great motivation it got to many of us when the Ballot was first announced.
5. Probably not. Smash will always be a reign for fast combo characters. But K. Rool will be the best heavyweight. If he is lucky and gets to be as good as Snake was for a heavy, perhaps someone can take him to top 8 with dedication.
6. Since Sonic was already revealed in Brawl, it wasn't as hype to see him return this time. I had no prospects for a new character I really wanted, until I found this thread.
7. I think I might cry if it happens. When Sonic was revealed in Brawl I was grinning for a whole day. I can expect something like that.
8. Spit on Etika's youtube page, borrow my friends capture device, and make a cool combo video of K. Rool (its been my dream since Melee to make a combo video). I would like still Krystal, Daisy or Shantae. But I would be fulfilled already so I can live without them.
9. Probably not since you are in this thread and your name is Speedwagon.

1. Crocodiles have been one of my favorite animals for a long time. But I love his character and simple, yet endearing design. To be honest, listing what I didn't like or was indifferent to would probably be a shorter answer.
2. No idea.
3. In the hearts of his fans
4. Many. Kritters being in Smash Run being the most vivid.
5. Probably not, as frustrating as it is.
6. Mega Man was my most wanted, with K. Rool as my second most. With Rock somehow making it, I then turned all my support towards K. Rool.
7. Acting like a total fool like I did for Mega Man and Mewtwo.
8. I'm done with dealing with frustrating mess that is speculation once Rool gets in. When that will be, no one can say. I just hope it's soon.
9. No.

1. The insane and murderous personality. I'm always drawn to those types of characters and the fact that he is a combination of two of my favourite things, crocodiles and pirates.
2. No idea, but I hope for this one.

3. In a mean Kremling pirate town.
4. When the ballot was announced.
5. He's gonna be huge, so no.
6. Most wanted was Dillon for a while then Assist Trophy, then it was Ridley but boss.
7. Pure joy. Too excited to function
8. I'll be shifting my main support over to Dixie like what I hope many other people here do. I'll also be supporting Isaac and Ridley. I would support King Hippo but it'll never happen.
9. Why would I if I took the time to answer your questions?

1. His personality and his different kostumes. Plus he is good at playing dead.
2. Dunno. Maybe him holding his blunderbuss like in DKC 2 or some new pose, which will be awesome regardless.
3. An underground lair
4. Joining this thread for the first time and getting "One of Us" as an initiation was fun. Standing together in the face of tough times of the speculation period and the not giving up hope despite the Mii costume.
5. I don't really about the competitive scene, but it depends on the user I guess.
6. K. Rool has been on the top of my wishlist since Brawl came out.
7. All aboard the hype train to Excitement City.
8. I will keep continuing to support Ridley, Dixie, Waluigi, Isaac, Banjo & Kazooie (though it's not gonna happen under Microsoft). Also I haven't been into speculation that much since the game came out.
9. :4wario2:"If you win, I hate you." Nah JK. I wouldn't hate you.

1. The fact he's a fat crocodile who manages to be kind of goofy yet scary at the same time, which makes him a very memorable character and a very worthy archenemy for Donkey Kong.
2. I have no idea.
3. Possibly a redesigned Crocodile Isle.
4. The reactions to the Ballot's reveal, and later to the Kosplay. (Edit: and the cloned K. Rool movesets, of course! How did I forget to mention that?)
5. I'm not expecting him to be high tier, but mid tier would be satisfying at least. I'm not going to consistently play as him if I happen to not like his playstyle, but at least it would mean that K. Rool is playable in Smash and that's what matters.
6. I've been interested in the idea of King K. Rool in Smash since I've unlocked everyone in Brawl, but I haven't been particularly invested in this cause before really entering in the speculation scene and discovering that he has much more potential than being another generic heavyweight.
Besides, I wanted Robin quite a lot prior to his reveal, and seeing him revealed when the Gematsu pressure was at its finest was so satisfying. I also wanted Mewtwo back, and was devastated when the final roster was revealed to not have him, because I thought him being MIA again made zero sense, though I got over it... then the DLC was revealed. I wish I didn't get over it because my immediate reaction would have been much more hyped.
7. "OH MY GOSH!!!! YES!!!" You know, that stuff. And quoting people who gave him low chances ratings in RTC with a bunch of trollfaces in my post
8. After King K. Rool's reveal I'm probably going to truly support Dixie Kong. I think she would make a great addition to the roster, though K. Rool is my personal preference for a new DK character, which is why I'm not vocally advocating for her as of current.

Time for some questions:

1.What is your favorite thing from K.Rool?
2.What pose do you think King K.Rool's render is gonna have?
3.If you had to give K.Rool a new place to live, what it would be?
4.Do you have any fond memories of this thread? if so, what are they?
5.Do you think K.Rool is gonna be competitively viable?
6.Has K.Rool always been your most wanted character? or there has been any other character you wanted more that has been confirmed/discomfirmed?
7.What would be your reaction to K.Rool?
8.What will you do after K.Rool is released? will you still support other characters? or are you gonna quit speculation?
9.Do you hate me?
1. Personality, kostumes and the fact that he is a krokodile. I've always liked krokodiles (and snakes) for some reason.
2. No idea
3. Some fortress or kastle... or a new pirate ship
4. I have so many that it would take too long to list them. Someone posting "One of Us" after I had asked to be added to the supporter list is one of them.
5. Probably not (sadly)
6. He has been always my most wanted. Although Ridley was tied with him at one point.
7. HYPE
8. Buy him and play him. I will move my support to Bandana Dee and Wolf (though Wolf will most likely be konfirmed before K. Rool). I will kontinue spekulating as long as this place stays aktive.
9. No.

1: I guess one thing I'd have to say that I like about King K. Rool is that he has the most interesting character development as a Nintendo villain, going from just stealing bananas to kidnapping and then mass destruction.
2: Probably him facing the front of the screen with all of his tech or in contrast, to the left as opposed to DK and Diddy who face the right.
3: Probably a sky roaming castle and a swampy homebase that he can use to form new plans. Maybe Crocodile Isle was rebuilt for another time.
4: I guess some fond memories of this thread might have to be when we learned of the Ballot's existence and started gunning for him. There's also King K. Lone, which was pretty funny in its own right - making him a clone of everyone.
5: Hard to say - it all depends on what his moveset would be like, not to mention whether or not he can hold his own against rushdown characters like Roy.
6: In the pre-release era before joining SmashBoards, my most wanted included Roy, Shulk and Little Mac. There were a few others such as Takamaru and Wonder Red, too... but fate, why...? Upon joining the boards, Ridley ascended pretty highly on my wanted list, and a subtle support for Isaac too, who I felt was the most logical Assist Trophy to be promoted. Thanks to :4mewtwo:, my wanted was 1: Roy, 2: King K. Rool, 3: Isaac.
Now, The King has a rightful place at the top of my most wanted list.
7: "AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHH!!! KING K. ROOOOOOLLL WE WON! WE WON WE WON HIS FINEST HOUR OH MAN!!!! Now back to revision."
8: After King K. Rool's release, I've still got a number of characters to fall onto, and my Top 3 would probably now become something like 1: Isaac, 2: Inklings, 3: Rayman. Isaac and Inklings would become my utmost priority, the Inklings especially since K. Rool would have proven that Mii Costumes shouldn't deconfirm a character.
9: Not at all!

And I guess I'll reveal my King K. Rool moveset.
King K. Rool Krushes the Kompetition!!

Having waited for so long, King K. Rool is ready to prove his might against his nemesis Donkey Kong and his fellow Nintendo All-Stars in Super Smash Bros!

Gameplay Style: King of the Ring

As the King of the Kremlings, King K. Rool has the size and power to prove himself as one of the biggest fighters in the game. Unlike most heavyweights, King K. Rool relies on using an array of dastardly tricks and tactics to keep his opponent where he wants them to be before beating them senseless with his strength. To achieve that, K. Rool combines various elements he used to fight the Kongs in his final boss battles, from the Blunderbuss from DKC2 and the electric traps from DKC3.

Onscreen Appearance: Jumps down from the sky, a call back to his first boss battle.

Victory Fanfare: An imposing orchestral snippet of Donkey Kong Country 2’s World Map theme ‘Welcome to Crocodile Island

Weight: Between Donkey Kong and Bowser’s weight, making him the second heaviest character in the game.

Stage: Gangplank Galleon
King K. Rool’s dandy pirate ship from Donkey Kong Country 1 and 2, where it was the setting of the final battle and the first world respectively. In the distance are Donkey Kong Island and Crocodile Island. It has a similar layout to the Pirate Ship stage and the S.S Flavion in Paper Mario in that the ship is the main platform and the masts act as the floating platform, and the sea below. The sea can provide safety on the Wii U version, as swimming is possible but players cannot swim in the 3DS version; they fall through the water. There are also rope ladders that players can climb up to reach higher levels of the stage. Krow’s Nest is at the top of the stage, and attacking the mast will cause Krow to drop Kannonballs in retaliation.
Omega Form: The Omega version of Gangplank Galleon takes place on Krow’s Nest, now widened to accommodate 4 players.

Stage Themes:
Crocodile Cacophony (DKC – Diddy’s Kong Quest) (New remix)
King K. Rool Battle Medley (Donkey Kong Country series) (New remix)
Boss Battle Medley (Donkey Kong Country series) (New remix)
Welcome to Crocodile Island (DKC – Diddy’s Kong Quest) (Ported)
Volcano Dome/VS. Lord Fredrik (DK Country Returns Tropical Freeze) (Ported)
Donkey Kong Isle (Donkey Kong 64) (Ported)

Standard Attacks:
Jab: King K. Rool slugs a fierce right hook before snapping at his victim with his jaws. K. Rool’s natural combo. Slow, but powerful.

Forward tilt: Belly thrust: King K. Rool suddenly thrusts his massive belly forward, hitting anyone in front of him. This attack gives him frontal invincibility from incoming projectiles.

Up-tilt: K. Rool’s leaping attack from Donkey Kong Country. During his leap, K. Rool can move forwards, giving him an attacking field both above and in front of him.

Down-tilt: Swings a Klaptrap by the tail at the enemy’s feet and throws it away into the background at the end of the animation.

Dash attack: K. Rool propels himself forward with the jet-powered blunderbuss flames. One of his attacks from DKC2, and deals damage from both the front charge and the blunderbuss flames.

Neutral Air: K. Rool spins in the air akin to the Blue Kritter’s attack in Smash Run. The attack is intended to keep him out of combos, and comes out quickly.

Forward Air: Swipes the air with a Klaptrap.

Back Air: Shifts his weight behind him to attack with his back.

Up Air: K. Rool head-butts the air with his Krown.

Down Air: Belly Flop – K. Rool attempts a spread eagle pose and plummets straight down to flatten his opponents with his massive belly. Deals massive amounts of shield damage but a lot of end lag when he hits the ground.

Smash Attacks:
Side Smash: Rocket Punch: K. Rool fires a rocket-powered boxing glove at his opponent. The Boxing glove can be angled up or down, and has great horizontal range.

Up Smash: Blunder Blast: K. Rool swings his blunderbuss upwards, and when it is at a 90°over his head, he fires a kannonball at them point blank, sending them skywards. He only fires the Blunderbuss if someone connects with it during the swing.

Down Smash: Electric Jolt: K. Rool takes out a remote control and smashes the button, accidentally destroying the controller and electrocuting himself. Anyone who touches him during the electric shock is damaged as well. K. Rool himself doesn’t take damage; rather he ends up charred like when the Blunderbuss misfires, and as such, has quite a bit of lag.

Special Attacks:
Neutral Special: Krown Boomerang: K. Rool takes off his Krown and throws it at his opponents, a throwback to his signature attack from Donkey Kong Country. The Krown can be angled up or down, like Link’s Boomerang, but has multiple hitboxes for extra damage. Upon throwing his Krown, K. Rool won’t move until the Krown comes back to him, leaving him open to damage. The Krown travels forward as long as the Special Button is being held, release to send it back immediately.

Side-Special: Kaptain’s Blunderbuss: K. Rool pulls out his Blunderbuss from his days as Kaptain K. Rool. K. Rool charges up the blunderbuss and fires a Kannonball. The amount of charge affects the properties of the Kannonball. The first charge makes it drop in front of K. Rool. The second charge has it bounce on the ground, and full power sends it flying across the stage. However, overcharging the attack causes the Blunderbuss to backfire, just like sucking up a Bob-omb and deals damage to him and anyone close to him upon explosion, like Diddy’s Peanut Popgun. A shoutout to @ Wintropy Wintropy and her discharge mechanic. The Kannonballs can be picked up and thrown by anyone like R.O.B’s Gyros, however, if they are left alone for a while, they become spiked balls that damage the unsuspecting. There can be two Kannonballs on the stage at any time.

Up-Special: Helicopter Pack: K. Rool takes out his Helicopter Pack from Donkey Kong Country 3 and begins to fly around with it. Using the Helicopter Pack, K. Rool has a good amount of horizontal recovery, but the vertical recovery is lacking because of his weight. During his flight, he has small amount of super armour like Snake’s Cipher from the front, but the helicopter pack is immediately destroyed if he is attacked from behind. The Helicopter Pack peters out after 4 seconds, and K. Rool looks at the camera as he plummets helplessly, flapping his hands trying to gain more altitude.

Down Special: Electro Pods: King K. Rool’s means of offense in Donkey Kong Country 3, this is a tiered attack like Villager’s Timber. King K. Rool places an electric pod on the ground in front of him for the first button press, and in the second press places another pod on the stage, which can be deployed in mid air as well. Note that only the second pod can be deployed in mid air. Upon pressing the Special move for the third stage, K. Rool brings out the remote control and presses the button, activating the pods and sending an electric current between both pods. Anything caught in the electric pods’ current will be electrocuted, even K. Rool himself, as such, this can be used as a double-edged defence tool. The electric current is at it’s strongest when the pods are closer together, and subsides after five seconds after activation.

Grab: Blunderbuss Suction: K. Rool activates a suction feature in his blunderbuss that pulls in anyone unfortunate into his blunderbuss and leaves him or her at his mercy. He can move around with his victim stuck in the blunderbuss like DK. Should an explosive item such as a Bob-omb be thrown as he’s sucking in a potential victim, the blunderbuss will explode and damage him. K. Rool will temporarily become charred in the process, a reference to DKC2.
de
Forward throw: K. Rool slams his opponent with the hilt of his blunderbuss violently, a throwback to DKC2.
Backwards throw: K. Rool turns around and fires his victim out of the blunderbuss like a projectile.
Up-throw: K. Rool shoots his foe out of the blunderbuss skywards.
Down throw: K. Rool pulls them out of the blunderbuss and throws them to the ground.

FINAL SMASH1: Kredits for the king
King K. Rool beckons his opponent to attack him, and upon taking damage, he plays dead. The opponent is forced into taunting in victory, thinking that they felled the King, leaving them open to being knocked upwards by the fast rising Kredits from DKC1. The characters that didn’t land the final attack are also at the risk of being knocked upwards as well. The Kredits end with “The end?” and King K. Rool gets back to his feet again.

FINAL SMASH2: Kannonball Rain
King K. Rool’s ultimate attack from DKC1 – King K. Rool stomps on the ground and a rain of Kannonballs fall from above in random positions on the stage at a consistent pace. The Kannonballs fall down with a hefty velocity and deal a lot of damage, but the move can be avoided if the Kannonballs bounce off platforms.

Idle animation 1: Twitches his hands in anticipation and his bloodshot eye twitches as well.

Idle animation 2: His crown becomes lopsided, and he readjusts it back on to his head.

Taunts:
Up Taunt: K. Rool raises his arms high in victory, shouting, “Yeah! Thank you!”
Side Taunt: Laughs maniacally towards the camera.
Down Taunt: Attempts to fire a Kannonball. but a fish falls out and he looks stupidly at the camera.

Alternate Kostumes/Kolours
1: King K. Rool – Default costume and colours.
2: Kaptain K. Rool - Dons his pirate costume from DKC2
3: Baron K. Roolenstein - Dons his mad scientist costume from DKC3
4: Krusha K. Rool - K. Rool’s boxer persona from DK64
5: Klump: - Skin turns brownish pink to homage one of K. Rool’s commanders.
6: Krusha: - Skin turns a light blue to homage one of K. Rool’s commanders.
7: Kudgel – Skin turns dark grey like Kudgel, the boss from DKC2.
8: Lord Fredrik – Skin turns grey and wears similar garments to Lord Fredrik from Tropical Freeze.
I'll get back to see the feedback when I finish a few games of UMVC3

Flavour idea for today - give K Rool's Blunderbuss massive amounts of recoil.

Not as in damage, of course. I mean a healthy dose of pushback, at least in the air. Make it good for B-reversing shenanigans and it gives him a useful tool for returning to ground safely.

Time for some questions:

1.What is your favorite thing from K.Rool?
2.What pose do you think King K.Rool's render is gonna have?
3.If you had to give K.Rool a new place to live, what it would be?
4.Do you have any fond memories of this thread? if so, what are they?

7.What would be your reaction to K.Rool?
8.What will you do after K.Rool is released? will you still support other characters? or are you gonna quit speculation?
9.Do you hate me?
1. His quirky mannerisms. Few villains can match dat swag his unbridled intensity of simultaneous wit and madness

2. Upright, hand outstretched whilst he laughs maniacally in a nod to the Melee trophy

3. A floating city named Kremopolis, outfitted for combat with the Kongs and any other faction foolish enough to challenge the Kutthroat Krew

4. The ballot reveal was a good time for us, it really reinvigorated a sense of communal hope that had mostly waned in the months beforehand

5. Projectile-heavy / defensive characters tend to be outliers in the tier list, where speed and safety are the order of the day, but if characters like Brawl Snake and Smash 4 R.O.B. can work it, I think K. Rool could stand out with his deadly combo of stage-control traps and melee fisticuffs

6. No, he's never been my most-wanted character: Palutena was pre-release, Wonder Red is now; that said, I support K. Rool because my most-wanted was revealed way back in July '14 and, for better or for worse, K. Rool is my most-wanted newcomer that has a decent chance, so I've decided to devote my full support to the Kutthroat Kaptain!

7. Vindication, elation, koronation, celebration

8. I will continue to support characters to my final breath, speculation is among my favourite parts of the Smash community, and most importantly, I think everybody should get to experience the absolute joy of their favourite character being revealed for Smash

9. HOW COULD I HATE MR SPEEDWAGON?!
