So IF it were to be a Nintendo character, tell me who you guys think is likely but sticking to these two conditions:
-Not Fire Emblem or any already repped franchises (let's assume for a second they'll not break the "adding new worlds to the franchise" pattern just yet, for varietys sake, which would also imply "no spirits or AT upgrades", at least for now)
-Not Astral Chain (or games released later than Xenoblade 2, since Rex was apparently "too late" and missed the bus)

I just want to see options other than the usual.
I don’t think any Nintendo character is happening fighter pass, it would have to be a Nintendo character with characters associated with them that’s don’t already have spirits and don’t have spirited in smash.
Mike jones has a -10% chance of happening and he’s the only one I can think of.

Dumb question: is Geralt originated from a video game?... I've heard he was originated from a novel or something like that. If this is the case, then he obviously woldn't be a candidate for Smash.

I was talking about how the main character of the mainline Final Fantasy games changes in most entries; Cloud is the main character of Final Fantasy 7, but none of the other numbered entries (to my knowledge).

Also the second picture is of Joker.


It's actually harder to parse dry humour on the internet since you lack facial expressions. Even ignoring that there are people who have a hard time telling if people are joking or not while face to face (or reading any kind of body language for that matter).
Hard to argue against so true

The Witcher did start out as a series of books, yes
But the game and book interpretations of the world and Geralt himself are very different and the games are arguably the most popular pieces of media for the series so YMMV on whether he could get in on that technicality or not

The Witcher series originated from novels.

Geoff Keighley said there were almost no leaks for unannounced stuff at TGA
Would he ever say that there was unannounced stuff leaked though? :mybodyisreggie: That's the real question.

Geoff Keighley said there were almost no leaks for unannounced stuff at TGA, so that probably means that every character and company that Vergeben and Sabi deconfirmed for FP5 were all un-deconfirmed.
I don't think so. While we got these disconfirmations, the actual character didn't leak. So both statements can be true at the same time.

EDIT: Well, that and there's also the small possibility of no Smash at TGA lol.

He’s mad because Space Jam 2 hasn’t got a trailer yet.

There’s a difference to that and #5
The insiders know who #5 is but they aren’t confratable sharing who it is saying who it’s not dosent seem like a leak so in that case,
EVERYONE IS NOT BACK!!!

While we here at KC Comics are always working hard on the main Fatman storyline, it never hurts to take a break and laugh. To celebrate Smash Ultimate's anniversary and the recent events that transpired, we tripled the spirit points. Keep in mind, all of our deconfirmation gags are uncanon (and potentially outdated/inaccurate), and they are not affiliated with our Fatman main storyline. Their sole purpose is to entertain the writer.

Thanks, Commissioner!

I'm going to have to give you a side chapter involving Nightmare or something lol.
I'm a woman of my word, King Sonnn DeDeDoo King Sonnn DeDeDoo . Here's are a couple of special side gags dedicated to our very own Commish!


And one more:






Once again, thanks, Commish! Now back to our regularly scheduled gag: Part IDK, but I'm Okay. Are You?





Old yet relevant deconfirmation gags:







Also... we here at KC promise that Jenée Montana is totally not a self-insert. Probably. She's just the best side character.


Welp... that's all, kids. Don't forget to tune in next time. Same Fat time, same Fat channel.

I think Geoff meant actual leaks and not just "Guess Who!" with Smash insiders.

I don’t hear much. I ain’t no insider but may I say this.
We got to honest, a MineCraft rep would be nice
But he would only be worth it as FP11 or so

Lol these are all great! That Commissioner Gordon comic excerpt has me down to a T.

“Still hoping for Nightmare for FP5 even though Namco was deconfirmed?”

“No.... Maybe.”

Well I don't agree with the "Guess Who!" character from Vergeben, Sabi, and other Smash insiders being FP5 because there is one source from Sabi that claims that he has the name of the "Guess Who!" character (which also had Terry's name), so it counts as a leak to me.

This seems quite skeptical to me. Perhaps Vergeben and Sabi are just playing safe to keep the hype down low. So they're autmatically telling in advance who it will not be to save the grace of the fans. Remember, the DLC was picked last year, so the insiders would know at this point, but for the sake of hype, they would choose not to tell it such that they could keep the surprise at a low leak percentage.

Hmmm, I don't quite understand. They're trying to keep us from being too hyped by giving us disconfirming highly anticipated picks, yet they want to surprise us? If it's a character people (probably) don't want, I don't think it's a surprise that people are interested in.

Unless Sabi's source comes out and gives us a name before the show, nothing substantial has actually been leaked by telling us who the character won't be.

Can't wait for Sabi or Vergeben to make a new statement and they are all de-un-deconfirmed.

That is absolutely not what Geoff meant. It's just that no one has leaked the final character, which is something we already knew because that's why we've had to go through this guessing game. The list of people who know fighter 5 is so short that if it leaked they'd be able to find out immediately who did it, basically.
