WTF is this a joke thread? Like we need another one of those. Master hand wouldn't be a horrible playable character for brawl.....these are probably the ideas running through your mind as your eyes summon you to continue reading this thread, but I inform you a joke thread this is not. I have much more respect for my name and this forum to mock either. I actually would be among you to say this as I view such a thing but now my mind has been altered by late foreign thoughts. Allow me to explain.

Possibility
What seperates the omnipotent hand from our admirable champions the smash brothers is the fact that he does not have the basis of a playable character. He does not have a fluid attack list, character movement or size ratio. He just doesn't fit. However there is a word that was spoken bt one of the moderators that opened my mind to new worlds of creativity.
His name is Kirbykid and while I don't have the exact quote, he said something along the lines of It's Rumored Master hand and Crazy hand are the arms of The ancient Minister.



The ancient Minister, is there a possible link between him and the hands

That'd be wild wouldn't it. And it makes sense as well. People have been requesting for a "master" body to be the host of the skillful hand. And the ancient minister doesn't have any hands. It's very possible. And it'd be cool too. what if the hands were part of the ancient minister or the three while seperate entities held by symbiosis. It could be either a communisilistic or mutualistic bond for each other. Also to help with the size issue the hands can be downsized or revamped for the game. That's also realistic. Just like Ganondorf changed to his form in TP so Can the hands. Heck they changed in appearance and size from the first two games.



64 Master Hand



vs melee Master Hand


probability

So by being attached to The ancient Minister and by being downsized slightly (to only slightly bigger than bowser). But still certainly he's not logical, heck he'd be a stupid choice to be i n brawl. Sakurai would never pit him in as a playable character. Maybe not.
While I too doubt he'd be playable (even if the ancient minister was the body) It's impossible to deny that both hands are on sakurai's requests. Sakurai has been known to bring pretty odd characters to smash (ness for smash 64; Game & watch, Dr. Mario, and Ice climbers for melee; and Red lately for brawl). Also of all the series to have a representation the most undernoted series is smash bros. Yes I know, that's stupid homeless. Well yes and no. Master hand has made himself a stable of smash at this point. Even a smash character who has become well known becomes a nintendo character himself right? So who better to represent smash as a whole than the disasterdly villain. Which brings another point, Master hand would bring the villain count up.


Now of course if the hand was playable he'd have to go under the name of the body, Ancient minister.

Rationality

Now lets say the ancient minister was playable, how would it work? well the Minister would definitly have to be Koed in the same way as the other players, No Stamina load. That's the point of the body of Master hand after all. The fighter would be considered heavy because his size. The body portion would be small yes, but the giant gravitating hands do little to to keep the player small. However the player would have the speed of a balanced player because well the ancient minister doesn't look like a heavy player. The hands also would have large hit boxes and lots of power. Toppled with this the hands alone would have super armor. Does this make the character overpowered? Seems so but this can all be evened up by sever attack lag. lag before attacks and lag after.

Now I'm not going to give a full attack or speacial list but I will say one attack should be centered around desynching the hands. All his attacks would be centered around the actual hands attacking so desynching them would make him vulnerble. When he uses the desynching special the hand should stay in one place and just respond to attack configurations while the minister inly responds to movement. When the hands desynch they are given a seperated stamina guoge that when goes down to zero makes the hand destoyed until Rthe ancient minister gets a new stock. That way everything stays balanced. The desynch move would be a special and other classic master hand moves can be specials too.

The Final Result

I know this may be a stetch but amonst all these other OMG brawl's been cancelled or ZOMG Mr T.'s going be in brawl and here's my personal selection for characters with no logic involved look at me. Please keep an open mind in this matter and know deep inside we all want to play as The great hand. As long of course it's not with a heat device like Action Replay. Post your thoughts. Would you like him in? Do you think at least I'm being logical with this? Please comment. ;)

He'd probably be banned from tournaments...


I'd love to see Master Hand as a PC though...since this is most likely the FInal Smash

*laughs* You ARE joking, right? Master Hand as a PC? Sorry, bud, but it ain't gonna happen...*laughs again*

well i did say this wasn't a joke thread. It seems that threads like this actually work better than actual joke threads. However I'm as serious as ever. Even if he isn't a PC I still want the ancient minister and Master hand to be in symbiosis.

I wouldn't be surprised if they were...in some way, the AM and MH probably are symbiotic...question is how?

Could be, but the hands are about the same size as the minister self, so I don't think it are the ministers hands.
Well it can work in different ways.

1: the hands can be reconfigured to be more proportionate to the ancient minister

2: The hands stay the same size and The ancient minister just has an unproportionate body

3: They aren't actually his hands but through a symbiotic relationship tend to dwell around and cooperate with his movement making it seem like they are actually his hands

4: They aren't his hands and somehow possess him to work with him and hence become his hands.

these are just a few ideas of many possibilties for this relationship. I hope that I have answered your question in the right fashion.
