I'm not even saying she didn't win.

My point is that people on Smashboards/Reddit/4chan weren't the ones who won it for her. It was the people that don't get into speculation or talk Smash much. They saw the poll, voted, that was it.

Here’s a poll conducted by PushDustin after Mewtwo’s announcement that shows Bayonetta in high standings alongside the other “hardcore” picks. She was a highly talked about figure in Smash 4 DLC speculation that was written off by many for being too risqué.

well, we've hit the 24 hour mark

Assuming we've made it this far, I sure hope if somebody like verge or sabi does find out who fighter 5 is within this time, that they just keep it to themselves

Please, I want to relive that magic feeling of shock Joker brought.

No wonder they're staying too low-profile about KOS-MOS. They didn't do this to any other character.

Exactly my point.

A twitter poll.


Us people who hardcore speculate are so damn minor, but the casuals are the majority. This more or less backs up my point that Bayonetta 100% won off the casual vote.

Huh?


(read full Twitter thread from Jon)

Make of this as you will. I still think KOS-MOS is very likely being revealed tomorrow and this is Jon's way of working around this.

And the information turned out that cosmos and daisies are same kind of flower. That connection is actually very specific.

If you dare try and suggest again that the anniversary pic that had all the DLC characters + Daisy in it means anything I'm coming to your house and taking your Switch

You don't even know if the person who said their code name was Cosmos was being sarcastic or not.

It'd be a hell of a revelation for a random Smashboard user who's never leaked anything before to just suddenly drop info that NO ONE else online has.

so by that logic then Nintendo would end (w the mindset that there was going to be one pass) their DLC lineup by going with an overall crowd pleaser...

which I have been stating...

which you have argued against...

dope.

It does mean something because daisy is out of place in the picture. If it wasn’t so centered on dlc, it wouldn’t be weird for her to be in it.

I mean you're the one who kinda flew off the handle and assumed **** like an ass so :drshrug:


I wasn't arguing with you. When I said "Casuals won Bayonetta" that wasn't some conspiracy theory about how she didn't win, it's literally that people outside the Smash bubble got her in.

Is Dante fair game for FP5 or is Capcom supposedly still out of the running?

In theory he's ultra deconfirmed. I know he's not FP5 but we're so close to The Game Awards that I think I'll embrace the hype for once in my life:

DANTE IS FP5 HAVE YOU HEARD ME SORRY GUYS FOR SPOILING IT

Jon wasn't scared to being her up (see his thread) but he was saying stuff like "Rex & Pyra are prob more likely anyways" and "i'm hoping against my prediction" to distance himself as much as he can from that. It does come across as sus especially with Sabi dancing around the question and Verge not really commenting much.

I'm expecting to see KOS-MOS tomorrow but you never know. Personally, i'm hoping for a surprise.

The code name was a joke or a real thing. Giving Kosmos it would make people too unsure and go “it must not be her”. I don’t think the code name is relevant right now because we don’t know anything about it. Kosmos’s name is definitely more relevant to the flower connection than an unknown code name.

Except you're literally trying to use the "Cosmos" post as relevant info, when it was almost 100% sarcasm.

I’m sorry, but I’m not sure the casual fanbase is going to actively pursue answering a Twitter poll that has no actual stakes especially when it was created only after Mewtwo was released. If you know about PushDustin, chances are you’re already roped into speculation. Like I said before, she was actively talked about during hardcore Smash 4 speculation, but was simply ignored by many because they thought she was too risqué and would never happen.

That was literally a Twitter poll. The @ PushDustIn along with the link means he held it on Twitter. I'd know, I voted in it.

Jon isn't leaking anything. You guys should read up on Occam's Razor before coming up with these convoluted theories where he's playing 4D underwater Chinese checkers.

I have to go bed soon.
My final exam is early in the morning tomorrow.
I might be seeing a movie in the afternoon, BUT I should be able to watch TGA live.

I too don't know. But they're really turning this into a grave situation.

So Sabi seems done until TGA.

I'm pretty sure Jon is just trolling and if he does know who FP5 is he probably hasn't even mentioned them or very lightly touched upon them at some point. If Jon does know that FP5 is KOS-MOS then he's a massive idiot because the people calling him out for being a leaker are going to get revved up to 11 which seems to be the opposite of what he wants.

The 4chan Clock Tower TGA leak is on VERY shaky ground right now. I'm pretty sure most of us have written it off.

Pretty sure VR Plant is dead and we won't be hearing from him any time soon.

So I guess it's all on Verge to have the final say before tomorrow if there's anything left to be said.
