Some would like characters from Warcraft and StarCraft as newcomers to future Super Smash Bros. games, but the question is who could come from those two franchises.
My picks for WarCraft, StarCraft, and Diablo would be Illidan, Kerrigan, and Diablo but you can’t really go wrong with pretty much anyone from those games.
I think Illidan would be a really fun stand-alone character with great moveset potential and among my favorite character designs in gaming. Kerrigan (in my opinion) is probably the best representation in bringing over some RTS mechanics into Smash. Being the Zerg queen, she could have several specials that summoned various Zerg units by using resources similar to Hero’s MP. The utility would vary in utility from anything like Snake’s land mines (Defiler or Lurker), wandering units like Dedede’s old waddle dees and doos (Hydralisk), and single attack units that disappear afterwards like Zelda’s phantom or Bayonetta’s Smash attacks (Zerglings and Scourge). Diablo would be a great villain addition and namesake of its series.
I’ve always thought Blizzard had amazing character design and I’d be hyped to see anyone from those three games. I’ve never been quite as big on Overwatch but I’d be okay with someone from that game too.
Here are more in depth topics I made regarding my thoughts on Illidan and Kerrigan for Smash if anyone is interested:
