Who is Eric Andre?​

Eric Andre is the host of Adult Swim’s The Eric Andre Show, the best worst talk-show on television. Alongside his trusty co-host Hannibal Burress, the two invite celebrities on their show and do everything in their power to make them as uncomfortable as possible. There’s also a few on-the-streets segments where Eric does basically the same things he’d do on his talk show, but in public settings such as out in the streets or at the 2016 RNC.

Why Eric?​

If you’ve been on the internet at all within the past couple of years, you’ve probably seen at least a few of the countless memes that have spawned from this show. Who Killed Hanniball, LET ME INNNNN, Pretzels is the Same, and many more have ingrained themselves in the internet lexicon and I think it speaks to the show’s massive popularity that so many of its most memorable moments had that kind of impact. I’m a huge fan of the show’s absurdist humor, and considering we’re lacking any notable Adult Swim representation right now, I think Eric could fill that niche wonderfully. In my opinion, he’d be one of the biggest Swim pulls you could get outside of, like, Rick and Morty or something.

What would he do
​
Considering all the weird **** Eric does on his show, there is virtually no limit for moveset potential. I can totally see him being a Faust-esque RNG-heavy wildcard character that pulls out random **** to attack his opponent with. He also has to have Bird Up for his recovery, and a Who Killed Hannibal attack. If supers are in this game, then there’s very few better choices than the Wheel of Prizes spinning in its entirety.

I am IN, easily one of my most-wanted. He would be so funny as a troll character. He has to have tag team moves that actively harm and inconvenience his partner but can be used in completely nutty ways. This man is a reality-warper.

One of his costumes needs to be the trenchcoat he wore in the "I don't trust like that" skit.

Oh yeah, Eric has to be the most competitively unhealthy character in this game. Heavy reliance on RNG, attacks that hinder his teammates, the most ****ed up hitboxes to ever be in a fighting game, the whole nine-yards. He would be banned from serious competitive play, but he’d be so fun to use casually and I can’t think of anything more fitting than Eric’s bull**** getting him banned.

Eric Andre mains when they destroy the metagame and aren’t allowed in tournaments anymore:
