Don't deceive me I mean her this time!:joyful:
BTW, my vote looks like this for her : (without the added fazaz)
View attachment 46384
And thus why she should be playable over Hades, she was the original Lord of the Underworld before it was cool (Ignoring what the purple troll says).

LOL Seems like a great way of getting back at Palutena to me. XD
With such alt colors, it would look nice in team battles.

Somehow, I think that a Thanatos color would be nice... But it would also be super weird.

Edit: ABSOLUTELY unrelated, but I thought that I should share this gif with you.
And I definitely won't bump the thread for a gif.

It's... interesting.

That's definitely... Something. But that skin does actuallty suit her for some reasons.

Although it's not too much, one the french website I usually lurk around, we are holding a little "political campain" about DLC to spend some time, and I managed to put Medusa on the list!

Even if it's full of regulars, if I can give some visibility!

I bet the snake is suffering from a spazz attack because he saw Paluetna's heavenly bosoms (Or those of Medusa's). :troll:

It's great that you were able to start gaining more supporters for the Underworld Army on that French site. Medusa needs all the supporters she can in order to get her revenge against Pitty Pat and Pretty Palutena.

Also, I've gained some American supporters just by sharing your material on Twitter and My Nintendo News (Plus Facebook). Maybe things should be good for now, but it will grow rather slowly.

That snake is the perfect response for everyone who think that Medusa would be a clone :awesome:

For the French website, we just started this little game today. And the regulars are already aware that Medusa is my number one newcomer. But there's still new people since the good old speculation days, so... :awesome:

And share, share! Nice to know that there's new supporters. (also, for my own ego, are my works good for these guys? :awesome:)

Why is there not a link to the ballot in my OP? Convenience people, convenience!

So happy to see the Fighter Ballot. Of course I don't know the entire process on how many votes you can submit, but hopefully this'll give Medusa a fighting chance, because we all know Sakurai didn't give two sh**s about her.

Even though this Ballot can give Medusa more publicity, there's still Hades and Viridi's fans to worry about since those two would still get more votes than her. But at least we have one thing both parties lack: A Vote for Medusa poster. :troll:

I wonder if Cree Summers has her own Twitter page since we can get some support from her given that she's the voice of our goddess. Considering how famous she is, I'm pretty sure that a retweet from her would be enough for Medusa to get enough supporters.

Honestly, I'm ok with any gods. Although my order is Medusa > Viridi >>> Hades.
So if the three gods can boost KI's popularity in the votes it's all good. I don't think it's only a matter of characters, but also of series.

About Cree Summer, it's seems that this is her twitter: https://twitter.com/IAmCreeSummer
I don't have twitter, though.

I prefer have Medusa over Viridi personally

Of course, I also prefer Medusa. I feel that she is the one with the most originality out of the 3. But Viridi is also a good character, and being from the forces of Nature give her some originality.

Hades is really fun character with tons of good quotes, but as a fighter, I fear that he can be kinda bland. He seems better as a boss (especially considering Metal Face and his many voice clips)

Good news, I've Tweeted the poster to Cree Summer and she shared it with her entire fanbase. A few of her followers also retweeted that post to their fans since they loved how the image turned out. I guess we got this one in the bag since we have a famous actress on our side for this Medusa campaign. :awesome:

What can I say beside "THANKS A WHOLE ****ING LOT"

That's awesome! Really! Even if it's "only a retweet", that's still a response. And that's great!

It's been a pleasure doing this since I have to use my Twitter account for something useful during this Smash Election. Embarrass

I'm sure that a fraction of her fans have played Kid Icarus before and they probably would vote in response to seeing that image. A few likes and retweets alone lets me know that this image could potentially spread like wildfire (Similarly to a certain Banjo image that PlayTonic used a part of).

Well, as I said to a friend, at least the argument "the voice actor doesn't want to reprise this role" seems busted :awesome:

Also, it's been a LONG time since I looked at the Spriter Ressource website... And they have all Kid Icarus portraits.
There's one for Medusa that I never really noticed, and this face is so awesome that it's a shame that I missed it during gameplay.



There's the other ones, of course.

With such serious poses and expressions, she would definitely suit the atmosphere of Smash. I can imagine the one next to her "Monster Form" as a potential animation during her idle/standing pose. She would be the one to give Falcondorf a run for his money with these actions and her attitude. :awesome:

Either an idle or a taunt. A "Now this is a little bizarre" taunt would be fun, after all.

Depends on her idle pose, I guess. Should it be classy or ready to battle?

I'd say classy fits the best since the battle pose is more fitting for a taunt. After all, she is this being of high power and giving off that classy vibe is important for Medusa.

True. So that pose is fit for both idle animation and taunt.

Although this animation can also make a good taunt.

I'm quite sure that it's really similar to the animation when she transform into her monster form.

I'm pretty jealous as to how far you guys gotten in terms of the ballot.
I cannot find a new supporter of Hades in sight. ;-;
now you know how being a viridi supporter feels

at least you HAVE supporters :p
Well look on the bright side, at least you guys still have supporters in comparison to Pandora and Phosphora (Who aren't that likely to begin with).

Viridi has less support than Magnus though.

How am I meant to feel about that :crying:
We all have less support than Magnus the Cloud Fanboy if we take PushDustIn's poll into account. But Sakurai would most likely not have any Assist Trophies as DLC immediately since they already have a defined role and a working model in the game's code.

If we think about it, it's all about the three gods (Medusa, Hades, and Viridi) in the running for the next Kid Icarus DLC slot since Phosphora and Magnus are out of the question.

Random note. Does anyone else feel like there should be a Kid Icarus fighting game? One made by Arc System Works or something? I would probably suck at it but I would play it any way.

With all the potential characters in the roster and Sakurai's love for fighters, this ought to be something he should do with the Arc System Works team. It would be a wasted opportunity if he had never done such a thing to begin with since that means less Smash fans that whine about "Too many KI characters in the roster!".

If there's votes for Magnus, it means that people want more KI, so it means more chances for a KI character.

Go ahead, Magnus fans! Boost the popularity with the assist! :awesome: I believe that some AT could become playable, but I don't see Magnus as a potential playable.

Well, I didn't think of it and that way. But now we know that the Magnus supporters are arguably helping the gods in someway since Sakurai might know that we want more Uprising love.

Thanks you knuckleheaded badass lovers for your hunger for AT promotions! :troll:

For once, Magnus is really helpful :troll: (I really like Magnus, but his assist trophy role is perfect for him. Even in KI, he doesn't have many moves.)

But yeah, I personally believe that any votes for a serie boost the chances of the said serie. I thought of that when I saw people saying "No, don't vote for [a Golden Sun character], it will lower Isaac's chances".
Of course, this logic applies for everything, like Rhythm Heaven, especially considering the "lack" of front character.

And for Kid Icarus, it basically means that it's the battle of the gods.

Knowing Medusa is one of Sakurai's favorites (he loves everything Kid Icarus), I think she has a pretty good chance of coming in. I see Wolf and Medusa making their way into Smash 4 some way or another before any character (if the Roy and Ryu rumors were disregarded, that is). I'd be pretty happy with Medusa; she is a pretty unique character.
