4chan....cat jesus leak?

Yes, because there's a picture of a cat, and since it has some good info, I call it Cat Jesus.

TFW DaybreakHorizon likes your post, and then decides not to like it.

Then you had the Game Awards leak that lines up with Kingdom Hearts DLC and Horizon Zero Dawn PC release.

I'll get back to you on this one.

 

[Dragoncharystary]

Ladies and gentleman, my source just got back to me with a new list of deconfirmations. Fighter pass character number 5 is not any of the following:

-A character from Marvel comics
-A character from DC comics
-A character currently serving in the US Senate
-A character from the comedy television show "The Office"
-A character from the anime "My Hero Academia"
-A character from the Disney channel movie "High School Musical"
-A character from the television show "Spongebob Squarepants"
-A character from the movie "Bill and Ted's Excellent Adventure"
-A character from the YouTube channel MrBeast
-A character from the musical "Grease"
-A character from the comedy television show "The Simpsons"
-A character from the Nintendo of Japan staff

-A character from the novel "Old Yeller"
-A character from the Bible
-A character from Fox News
-A character from Geico
-A character from the New England Patriots
-A character from GameFAQS

That's all my source would confirm for me so far. Working to find out more specifics. Will update when I learn more info.

 

[Seanapotamus]

What's backing her up?

Only things I can think of are the second "Cat Leak" and that one Game Awards leak that was posted on November 20th, both of which are on 4chan. And since those are anonymous posts, it's difficult to verify those, so we don't know if those are real or not.

 

[Deleted member]

KOS-MOS folks doin' the same song and dance us Phoenix fans were.

Y'all might wanna hold those horses a bit.

Oh I'm holding my horses. I'm just waiting for the false god's final dance.

I was totally looking forward to destroying people as the Grinch against a tag team of Vergeben, Sharpay, and Batman on the Noah's Ark stage.

 

[pinshadow]

KOS-MOS is such a whimper to go out on in my eyes. You have a crazy left-field bombshell with Joker, 4 of the main characters from one of the biggest RPG franchises of all time with Hero, Microsoft doing the impossible and actually getting Banjo in Smash, Terry representing not only himself but literally all of SNK, and then ending on something so underwhelming. I get my personal bias is factoring hard into this but I just can't feel it. Why would they end on the most obscure character here?

 

[MissingGlitch]

-A character from the Christmas special "How the Grinch Stole Christmas"

This one hurts the most. It hits me on deep emotional levels I tried to lock away.

 

[Deleted member]

Dammit, I just wanted Vergeben as a playable character XD

 

[Spongeboob]

What's backing her up?

I don't particularly want KOS-MOS in (not against her either, but yeah), but what seems to be backing her up (at least from what I see) is the following:

• Some /v/ rumor about TGA reveals that seems to be gaining a lot of traction because it got something right about Kingdom Farts. (Don't worry, Sora's still cool.)
• The Milk-BOSATU rumor, which claimed that someone seemingly female was in development, and she was from a series that was already represented. Later on, the guy claimed that, while it wasn't Nakoruru, it "looked like her". (Still taking that one with a grain of salt.)
• Bandai Namco doesn't have a rep yet when they helped out in development.
• Some stupid picture of a cat.

 

[PSIGuy]

I would be more interested in the reason why Sakurai choice her over another Namco rep because they arguably have more popular characters at their disposal that could represent much bigger games.

We had a fake 4chan leak a while back that said we'd be getting Kosmos except everything about her is a loveletter to XB2 right down to a Rex and Pyra cameo in her final smash. I still think there's a possibility Sakurai's love for XB2 and inability to put Rex in broke him so he just asked for the next best thing (which is to say Kosmos is a consolation prize). Watch as she has palettes that turn her outfits and hair red, blonde and green. Hopefully with some giving her orange hair and blue hair as long as we're dancing around the legalities of "what does Monolith Soft actually own".

 

[N3ON]

I know but somehow it’s likley and I’m gonna feel embarrassed

If it makes you feel any better I've got a lot of crow to eat if we get Reimu.

WHICH WON'T HAPPEN BECAUSE WE'RE NOT GETTING REIMU

...see?

 

[DaybreakHorizon]

We doin' most wanted characters again!? See, this is why everyone needs a spiffy signature with all of their most wanted. We ask this every other day.

Anyway, here's something a little more unorthodox. Fill in the next 5 DLC characters using the following criteria:

Fighter #1: Who da heck is that?
Fighter #2: Character you despise.
Fighter #3: Character you've been begging for.
Fighter #4: Character from a new game
Fighter #5: They actually got in?!?!

EZPZ

1. Reimu - barely anyone in the West knows about her, and the core fanbase only knows her as a meme
2. Geno - Before you come at me with the pitchforks, I don't hate any characters. I just like Geno the least
3. Sora - You guys know why
4. Akira Howard - Astral Chain will still be pretty new, and we love new franchise representation
5. Waluigi - People would be surprised and y'all know it

TFW DaybreakHorizon likes your post, and then decides not to like it.

You talked about being hype until Verge says otherwise and you oughta just be hype regardless.

Like, my boy's been disconfirmed again but I'm out here as hyped for him as I can be.

4. The Monster from Carrion (coming to XBOX one next year.)
5. Octane

Spoiler: A picture of the monster itself from Carrion:

The red fleshy blob is the monster.

I can believe it. That sounds like a very Sakurai thing to do. Considering how the XB2 fans are the only fans that ever got an apology for their character not being playable lmao

Blame me for Cat Jesus’s light.

I would know because I play both of them

You monster. You absolute monster.

Have an upvote.

Man Blonde looks like the new Red.

And Green looks like a blank page.

Guess the alts will be more interesting than I thought!

Isn't that the one that said we'll be getting Xenogears spirits with her?

Yeahhhhhh....

According to Lesley, Verge deconfirmed Kratos.
It was always a pie in the sky, but I could almost smell that pie.

Damn, I think this means Tony from cereal is Fighter #5.

 

[MooMew64]

Honestly, I'm just super bummed about Phoenix. Was really thinking we had something going there.

I'm over it, though. I'll admit, my initial posts on this were very clearly me being annoyed by ANOTHER Phoenix deconfirm, but I'm cool with it now. Still kinda just want to tune out Verge for now though 'cause of how frustrating this guessing game is.

Heck, I'd honestly recommend for most people to just sit back, relax, and maybe chill from speculation for a bit, at least until after TGA. That's what I'm gonna do, and I think it'll help, 'cause honestly my posts here have been too gosh dang cranky lately, ha ha.

 

[N3ON]

Reimu

Don't worry we aren't getting Reimu.

Like, my boy's been disconfirmed again but I'm out here as hyped for him as I can be.

Can't be hyped if it's not happening. That's just reality.

But I'm hyped for the prospect for KOSMOS given she's possible.

 

[Calane]

So KOS-MOS is looking to be FP5 now, huh? Interesting.

I guess I'm off to watch some Xenosaga videos so I can learn more about the character.

I know wishlists can get really repetitive, but we’ve had a lot of lesser talked about characters get the spotlight recently and any other topic is better than insider drama.

So who would y’all put as your top 4 for DLC wants.

Very late on this, but I wanted to play along.

1: Erdrick / Any Dragon Quest Hero (It actually happened!)

2: Adol Christin

3: Arle Nadja

4: Saki Amamiya (This definitely won't happen.)

 

[cosmicB]

More kills from Verge

https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/boards/234547-super-smash-bros-ultimate/78235954?page=43#435

Interestingly, he say's "Not sure" about KOS-MOS

Hold on, isn't KOS-MOS 100% owned by Namco and they'll just loan her out for cameos and stuff? Because if so, Verge has some faulty info here.

 

[Deleted member]

Nothing against KOS-MOS but again I think placing your faith in a character on 4chan leaks is just asking to be doomed to disappointment.

I can't believe Chin lee and Baltazar were deconfirmed. They were my most wanteds.

But Tony's already in...

 

[MissingGlitch]

All I know is. My boy the richest duck in the world is still in the running.

Reimu

If we do get Reimu...the cat is stronger than even Vergeben the false god.

With all this skepticism with Verge and Sabi, do we have ANYTHING left to trust?

 

[Deleted member]

When I wake up tommarow I just hope it’s all back to normal. With no idea who 5 is.

Is that because every 4chan leaker for a while there was listing DOOM, or...?
