Official Newcomer/DLC Speculation Discussion

[TheTuninator]

Well, wasn't that neat? Looking forward to the next reveal.

 

[SirBillyBob]

Sakurai really added early access DLC what a chad

 

[Deleted member]

Okay, that was so brilliant.

Definitely a secondary.

So let me get this clear. If I kill Boss Sephiroth, I get him early???

 

[Souless_shadow]

BRB gotta go fight the Sephiroth boss challenge until my thumbs fall off

 

[ZelDan]

Yeah, this is easily my favorite Pack of FP2 so far. That was one spicy victory screen.

 

[Deleted member]

rip in pepperonis geno

 

[Faso115]

Hey guys, just wanted to chime in and say I WAS RIGHT THAT WAS FREAKING VICTORY POSE.

I now have more credibility thank leakers /s

 

[Kokiden]

So let me get this clear. If I kill Boss Sephiroth, I get him early???

Wait wait really?!

 

[RaintheCriminalWhirlwind]

Lara Croft lives...for now.

2B and Croft live for 3 more reveals....Poor Geno

 

[Mamboo07]

Sephiroth is gonna be the Bayonetta and Meta Knight of Smash Ultimate.
(Both were pretty broken and powerful.)

 

[Dyamanttine]

So if i win against sephiroth today, i can already play with him? omg

 

[Polan]

wait so us FP2 buyers get it early

 

[skylanders fan]

So time to refresh...,

 

[metalhydra273]

So Sephiroth comes out in 20 minutes basically, sick

 

[Polan]

also do we get the stage

 

[Cyberfire]

Maximilian called the victory screen!
I honestly love how hard they leaned into how legendary a boss Sephiroth is. The victory screen alongside his classic mode and the early access unlock gimmick are all amazing!

 

[Polan]

give me those ****ing songs

 

[SMAASH! Puppy]

What was that about the prize for beating Sephiroth? I was only able to read "You can use Sephiroth" before the subtitles moved on, and it won't let me go back.

Can you unlock him as a boss character or something?

 

[CannonStreak]

Well, with Geno being announced as a Mii Costume, I guess I will be moving onto other threads for Smash like this one.

Please don't attack me because I supported Geno. I kinda knew he would be in as a Mii Costume, anyway.

 

[ZelDan]

wait so us FP2 buyers get it early

If you can beat him in his special boss challenge, yes.

Same applies to those who just go and buy his standalone pack without buying the whole pass.

 

[ALongWistfulSquiggle]

My takeaways:

1. Sephiroth's range isn't quite as ridiculous as I thought.
2. Up-air for days
3. Uncharged up-B is stylish
4. Why sephiroth-exclusive boss rush?
5. He's part of wheelhouse very, very soon

 

[dezeray112]

Good presentation overall. Got to feel sorry for the Geno fans. Well, I predict that the next reveal will probably happen around March.

If you beat him you get to play as him I believe early

If you beat him you can play him before he releases.

 

[kylexv]

Presentation said Sephiroth's Challenge will be available in 20 minutes

 

[PK-remling Fire]

Since Sephiroth's final smash is pretty much guaranteed to be Super Nova, what parts do you think they're going to keep in? I personally hope they keep the math equations and the attack punching a hole through Jupiter.

Woo! Supernova was everything I hoped it to be!

 

[SMAASH! Puppy]

If you beat him you get to play as him I believe early

If you beat him you can play him before he releases.

Is this only for beating Very Hard Sephiroth?

 

[Ramen Tengoku]

So basically Sephiroth got his own Challenger Approaching battle? Neat

Will definitely give the challenge a shot once I get off of work

 

[PLATINUM7]

Is this only for beating Very Hard Sephiroth?

I think it's for all difficulties.

 

[Ben Holt]

I'm surprised we didn't get any Deluxe Mii Costumes. Not even Geno, who I thought was a given.

 

[MooMew64]

What the actual heck was that.

Like...that was such a wild presentation.

I'mma need some time to get my thoughts together...

Geno fans, I'm so, so sorry. Y'all got dealt a rough hand today.

 

[Cutie Gwen]

HOLY **** THANKS FOR THE BIRTHDAY GIFT SAKURAI THIS IS LITERALLY THE BEST DLC CHARACTER

 

[SuperSceptile15]

They didn't even give Geno a Deluxe costume... I'm so glad I'm not a Geno fan or else I'd be absolutely furious. On the other hand, Sephiroth looks great and nine more songs is neat.

 

[Polan]

everyone is gonna do it on easy to get him quickly

 

[Simplythe1]

So gang, who's ready to raid Sephiroth's place

 

[Speed Weed]

As said before, but now it bears special mention

do NOT be a **** to Geno fans over this

 

[Oshawott777]

Presentation said Sephiroth's Challenge will be available in 20 minutes

But it's not available to people who bought fighter pass 2 right?

 

[I.D.]

Only remaining missing third party mii costumes

Monster Hunter (Rathalos armor)
Monster Hunter (Kirin armor The other one)
Lloyd

3 characters left to go

 

[Peridorito]

There was no section talking about Spirits, that's a bit weird.

 

[CannonStreak]

What the actual heck was that.

Like...that was such a wild Presentation.

I'mma need some time to get my thoughts together...

Geno fans, I'm so, so sorry. Y'all got dealt a rough hand today.

I kinda knew this was coming. But now, Geno fans are going to get flamed and harassed, which was something I tried to warn them about, anyway. I hope they make it through this.
