I want Medusa but those aren’t reasons she is in.I will remain loyal to our queen till till we see her in Super Smash Bros, because I believe Medusa is in... Yes many have slept on her, but I believe and Im confident that she will be in.
Reasons why Medusa is in:
1. Where is she? We havent seen her yet in the game, c'mon shes one of the main Kid Icarus characters so surely we will see her.
2. Sakurai bias is on her side.
3. Villains theme and Medusa is the main iconic villain of the ENTIRE Kid Icarus series
4. Appeared in Smash 4 as a trophy
5. Mentioned in Melee in Pit's trophy along with Palutena implying that she is a main character to the series
6. Can be a echo or unique, I guess we'll have to see
7. Medusa Head is kind of already that Medusa character to fight as a stage enemy so shes pretty much deconfirmed for a stage boss.
8. Did Palutena's alt change? Its likely it did.
9. Of all the Kid Icarus dialogue, Medusa is missing hers so its a good time to add her so she can be added to the Palutena's Temple chat.
10. There has been "leaks" claiming Medusa is in, and personally I want to believe she is in
Something I want to do for Christmas is play as Medusa in Super Smash Bros Ultimate and Im looking forward to doing so, I usually disregard any leak without Medusa because I believe in Medusa, I believe she is in. #MedusaForSmashUltimate
I go by a Super Smash Bros canon where its Sakurai himself who resurrected Medusa to fight, but is refereed to as a unknown entity in dialogue.. Whom is also responsible for resurrecting Ganondorf to fight as well.There's actually one thing that has me worried now that it's crossed my mind.
Since the 3ST was destroyed in Uprising, perhaps that was a reason why Pit now has the Lightning Chariot as the Final Smash (well, that or the fact that they wanted Final Smashes to be quick and right to the point). Since Medusa was defeated in the end and no Hades to bring her back, it makes me worry if they're using the current KIU ending canon for the choices for the KI cast in Smash. However, surely they could still bring Medusa in as playable and if any question how she got in despite being defeated already, she could just say it's a secret.
Still, I hope she does get in the playable division somehow, and it's probably just me being a worrywart when the game's only weeks away from release time.
On another note, I'm still kinda bothered there's been no KI music featured in the blog entries yet. I mean we got like 6 weeks left, but those can pass by real fast.
"Being a main character doesnt fet you in Smash" ok if we go by that logic then I want Agatio instead of Isaac from Golden Sun, but really though Hades is basically the same thing as Demise, a one hit wonder.. Maybe since Geno is coming Smithy should replace Bowser..Or maybe we should of had Tiki Tong over King K Rool.. Another villain that was doubted due to DKCR being a thing and look what happened we got the villain most iconic to the series.I want Medusa but those aren’t reasons she is in.
1. She was nothing but a trophy in either version of Smash 4
2. Sakurai bias can only extend so much, and he’s the same dude who made her just a starting villain rather than the main one.
3. There is no villains theme.
4. That is not a reason, there’s tons of trophies.
5. Being a main character is not a reason you’re in Smash, and Pit’s Melee’s trophy is completely unrelated to the current state of Kid Icarus characters.
6. Not a reason.
7. That has nothing to do with KI’s Medusa nor her shot at being playable.
8. Why? We’ve not seen anything on the matter.
9. ??? What?
10. There’s been leaks claiming even the craziest ****, that is not a reason.
I dunno. I think it depends of Sakurai himself if he want to add a KI newcomer or not. If it's the case it will be Medusa at 99% chances. And I don't know about this.I will remain loyal to our queen till till we see her in Super Smash Bros, because I believe Medusa is in...

The hell are you talking about? Being a main character isn’t enough to get into Smash, or else we’d have the main characters of every Nintendo game and that’s not the case. That does not in any way shape or form imply supporting characters get in before main ones. And as much as it pains me to say it, Medusa isn’t the main villain of Kid Icarus Uprising, Hades is."Being a main character doesnt fet you in Smash" ok if we go by that logic then I want Agatio instead of Isaac from Golden Sun, but really though Hades is basically the same thing as Demise, a one hit wonder..

Medusa is the most iconic villain to the Kid Icarus series and I believe she is in, especially since she is a female villain and Sakurai's bias being on her side pretty much guarantees her to be in because it means shes a chosen one and Sakurai himself knows she is best for business.
Funny you mentioned that because I found something that might put that leak in Medusa's favor.. There seems to be another character standing behind K Rool's hand in front of ROB.. Whoever it is seems to have dark messy hairThe hell are you talking about?

But meh, if this is the level of discourse, I’ll just stand back from the thread until the Grinch leak is either confirmed or proven fake.
Hm... That's the Mii Gunner.Funny you mentioned that because I found something that might put that leak in Medusa's favor.. There seems to be another character standing behind K Rool's hand in front of ROB.. Whoever it is seems to have dark messy hair

I think it could be her.
Mii Gunner is underneath Mewtwo.. And she has like brown hairHm... That's the Mii Gunner.
I believe Medusa is in.. Believe in Medusa.Hate to say it but I based on the spot Medusa supposedly is I think that's just R.O.B.
Darn...
For the moment, yes. But really, while predicting how the banner will change is really hard, it's a no-brainer to think that the Mii Gunner will join the 2 other miis. Size, pose, it's made to be with them.Mii Gunner is underneath Mewtwo.. And she has like brown hair
Looks like Medusa standing there, whoever it is has dark messy hair just like Medusa and I believe it is her.For the moment, yes. But really, while predicting how the banner will change is really hard, it's a no-brainer to think that the Mii Gunner will join the 2 other miis. Size, pose, it's made to be with them.
Remember that in the leak, Shadow take the place of the Brawler and Swordfighter. Miis goes above Lucas and moves Luigi & ROB, who go above Sheik (moving Sheik down in the process)
Well, look at the picture in my edit just above.Looks like Medusa standing there, whoever it is has dark messy hair just like Medusa and I believe it is her.
So looking forward to playing as Medusa in this game! :D
For we know, the leak could indeed be a photoshop..Well, look at the picture in my edit just above.
I know, I want to see Medusa too. But let's try to see what's actually there and not there, and not delude ourselves in false hype (we already have to confirm if the leak is real, before anything).
I believe Medusa will be dlc if she's not in the base roster, maybe like Incineroar Sakurai is deciding to save her for for the dlc.Well, I stand maybe in a more rational way. I believe the leak is real (if it's fake, the guy is a genius with 10 steps ahead of the world), and being french, I do admit that it helps me seeing things about ACP PLV and such... I won't say much about it, but I have my reasons to believe it's real. So yeah, for now I think it's the final base roster.
This doesn't mean support must end, though! Right now is not the time, but DLC is a thing. And the echo concept brought Medusa a bit in the spotlight. Considering Sakurai doesn't plan DLC before the release of a game, it's a big opportunity I believe.
IM LITERALLY JUMPING OF HAPPINESS, it's finally happening!! And it's 40 minutes long!!AT LAST ! There is a direct confirmed for the 1th november !
I pray for Medusa and/or Skull Kid to get in
Maybe, but the banner leak is looking very real.. so assuming it's real she probably won't get in baseroster. That's if every character was on that banner.. but you know, Sakurai is Sakurai so even with this leak out Sakurai can surprise us.Remember that with the possible exception of Ken, who had a leaked photo attached, not a single Echo has been leaked yet.
Medusa may have some hope yet.
Well it seems she's not here, alongside Skull Kid and pratically everyone.
Sounds like Vergerben was mostly right with Ken and Incineroar. At least we can have her as a DLC maybe….
I'm also going to main Piranha Plant, gosh I never thought it would actually work
