[Burigu]

Robin satisfaction: 100%
Just yesterday I said that I would like to see unexpected characters, to prove the leak wrong despite the fact I believed in it

Lucina satisfaction: 100%
I have praised the uniqueness of newcomers, but I don't mind a semiclone like Lucina the more the better I have always said except if you are Dark Pit

Marth Alt Lucina Satisfaction: 70%

Regardless of whether Lucina is an alt or a clone (until the official word of Sakurai states otherwise, you cannot convince me that she is the latter)

Served mate!

I take 100% credit for this one, sorry I just couldn't resist, because apparently the official site is not so official anymore. I hope you don't take this personal it is just that you simply don't want to see that the evidence is there

 

[Nimbostratus]

Lucina- 68%
Do I think she is a great addition? Nah. But I don't mind seeing her. As she's a clone, I doubt she took that much time and I don't think she would have been added otherwise, unlike . I'm assuming it's the ease of making her that got her the fourth spot over the more unique Chrom (never thought I'd call Chrom "unique"). So, I'm happy for her fans, and it's another character to add to the roster. But I'm not that excited for her personally, and if Fire Emblem gets four reps before DKC can even get three...

Still, I'm ok with this. Mostly.

Robin- 95%
On the other hand, I'm definitely hyped for this! I thought FE merited another rep, and my top choices would have been Anna (very recurring, won't go out of relevance like many others- unique personality and design) or Robin (importance to Awakening, ability to be very unique) And did they deliver with Robin! I'm glad to see that FE is actually getting some more extensive and accurate representation in Smash. I felt like they were speaking to the fans when Robin mentioned that he wasn't an ordinary swordsman. I'm glad to see both the male and female avatar, though that was a given if Robin got in.

On a side note, I must say, though I was never a Chrom supporter... I actually felt for him when he was lying there all hopeless. You make me feel guilty, Sakurai. Maybe DLC?

 

[ミスティック Speed]

Alrighty this is my first time doing this, but I feel like this deserves my input more then anything else so far....

Robin 100%
Robin is a character that I felt would only be possible in the Smash dreamland, not because he/she wasn't unique, but because there were other characters that I assumed when get in before him, especially Chrom. I always had high hopes for Robin, to be honest, and I was completely shocked to see them both make an appearance. Robin tips the scales for the Fire Emblem representation and adds a whole new flavor to the game. This. Is. Perfect. Love him, and love her. Cannot wait to play as them.

Lucina 100%
Lucina is also a character I had been seriously hoping for, especially over Chrom. We've been needing female reps in Smash, and Lucina delivers that with grace and pride. She may be similar to Marth, and heck....she might even be a clone, but that does not stop her from being the Lucina that everybody loves, and I am more then happy to have her with Robin. I absolutely adore her and I actually plan on maining her in the future.

 

[YoshiandToad]

SATISFACTION:

Gematsu breakdown: 100%
Guess anything can change. Thank goodness I was dreading Chrom. Feel a little bad for his fans, but not enough to be even the slightest bit sad for myself. Told you guys that Robin was the main character, not Chrom.

Robin: 100%
This would be even higher if it was mathematically possible. Robin is by far the best possible choice for a Fire Emblem character Sakurai could have picked; he represents Fire Emblem practically on his own with his various tomes, swords, tactics and gender alteration, as well as having dark magic open to him too.

Literally everything I hoped for and so much more; he looks like a blast to play and female Robin as an alt is a great piece of fanservice.

Lucina: 55%
I'm not a big fan of Lucina and had it not been for Robin getting in as well this would of been much lower. However, I can't deny her popularity, and that she and Robin can co-exist works wonders for me. Looking forward to finding out if she is the first absolute true clone or not; currently her Marth mimicking skills outshine even Roy's.

I'll admit though, I'm a little sad for Roy but looks like our boy isn't coming back. Five Fire Emblem characters would be overkill. Four's fine though considering we were meant to have three in Brawl. He just better get a trophy this time round.

 

[GamerGuy09]

Satisfaction

Robin: 95%

Robin is my 2nd most wanted character for Smash, only below Bandana Dee. So I am EXTREMELY happy that he is in. He is going to be one of my mains for sure.

Lucina: 50%

I like the character, but I hope she is unique enough to not just to be a straight clone. I hope she is unique enough.

 

[Minato Arisato]

Lucina: 80%

I admit, not seeing Chrom in was a bit disheartening, but I got over it pretty quickly. I mean, it's freaking Lucina, people.

Robin: 100%

This. Oh my God. Robin was always considered the underdog compared to Chrom and I never had much hope for him, despite him being my most wanted newcomer. Sakurai, you blew all my expectations out of the water at the fact that you actually did some RESEARCH this time. And Robin plays exactly like I hoped he would. I'm still in that state where I don't know if I'm dreaming or not. It certainly feels real enough. And if this really does turn out to be a dream, I never want to wake up.

I'm also really liking Speed's avatar. I ship Robin and Lucina so hard it's not even funny.

 

[PK_Wonder]

Robin - 100%
I was not remotely supportive of him/her until this trailer, which brought him to the top of my potential newcomer mains. This trailer was amazing, his playstyle suits mine to a tee (with Palutena being right up there as well as far as newcomers go). He does justice to his source material, and as an added bonus, he deconfirmed the Gematsu leak, and I couldn't be more pleased than to know it is wrong.

Lucina - 100%
She is a clone, and I always expected her to be a clone, but I always supported her. She almost certainly won't be a character I will play as, as I'm not a big fan of playing AS Marth (although he is someone I love to play against as a Pikachu main), but it's still good to have her on the roster.

Overall, today was 100% satisfying for me. My top two most wanted, Ridley and K. Rool took a nice boost in chances, and my third, Shulk remains highly likely.

Boy, do we have a lot of rerating work to do, and with so little time before release. Again. I'm just incredibly pleased that speculation is back with a vengeance.

Deconfirm Chrom and Only Gematsu Newcomers and Chrom Assist Trophy in the Results list.

@ Groose Suggested Schedule:
Day 277: Previous Newcomer Satisfaction
Day 278: Shulk and Chorus Men and Rhythm Heaven Character

Day 285: business as usual, Crash Bandicoot and Purchasable DLC Newcomers

 

[AustarusIV]

Better get in my vote before this ends. To put it shortly:

Lucina: 75%

I'm quite pleased to see her in, although I'm kind of disappointed over the fact that she doesn't seem to have a more original moveset.

Robin: 100%

YES. YES. All of my want. This is exactly what I wanted to see out of Robin, a Mage knight who specializes in using all sorts of tomes from the Fire Emblem series. Now why the hell didn't they reveal her in April in the first place?

 

[Deleted member]

Robin: 10%

The book mechanic seems interesting enough but everything else is just so blah to me. I can't get myself excited about this franchise at all; the characters just seem so generic.

Lucina 10%

Points for another female but the fact that she's a clone and looks like a female Marth makes her seem like fluff.

 

[Parallel_Falchion]

Lurked this topic a lot, first time posting.

Lucina: 100%
The one character I wanted in more than anyone else. I'm super happy she's in, even if she turns out to be mostly a Marth clone.

Robin: 100%
I wanted either Lucina or Robin, or really any Fire Emblem character not Chrom. Who did we get? Lucina AND Robin! Holy hell. As a big Fire Emblem fan, this announcement completely made the game for me. Female FE representation, a magic user, and both of those combined! Thank you, Sakurai.

 

[Halfhead]

Gemastu Wreck: 95%

Although I will spoil the roster for myself without hesitation come September, I really don't like knowing everything that is going to happen. Additionally, I only kind of liked Shulk and didn't like Chrom at all. I did actually love the idea of a Rhythm Heaven representative and I'm a bit sad that's now a lot less likely.

Robin: 100%

I know he's been getting a lot of 100s, but I feel he/she deserves it. The tactician is an extremely important role in every Fire Emblem game, and Robin is the most important of them. It's also a great way to show that Fire Emblem isn't just blue haired sword dudes.

Lucina: 30%

She's a blue haired sword dude. Yeah, she's a woman, but from my point of view, female underrepresentation in Smash is not solved by women for the sake of women. It's solved by picking out the important women and making sure they are recognized. Lyn could have worked a lot better as an important figure (first internation main character in FE). Lyn also doesn't look EXACTLY LIKE MARTH.

Also, if she's as cloney as she seems, it's kind of a screw you to Roy fans. Roy at least looks different from Ike and Marth with his red hair.

The thirty points comes from the slight possibility that she might be an alt plus credit for taking down the Gematsu leak.

 

[Glaciacott]

*Looks at pics of the day*

Well, good news @ Burigu : no more need to explain constantly to others how Lucina is not an alt xD

 

[jaytalks]

Satisfaction ratings:
Like of Lucina: 100%
I've already mentioned this on other threads, but Lucina is the reason I'm on this site. One day, after beating Fire Emblem Awakening for the umpteenth time, I decided to type into the search bar. "Lucina SSB4." I found a certain Smash forum site, but Lucina was getting trashed in the conversation. They said she had no chance and looked too similar to Marth. So I created an account to rebut those arguments, they argued back, and I was hooked. I've been a Lucina advocate ever since. And speculating on this game in every which way.

Lucina also happens to be my favorite video game character, and a lot of this has to do with her design. Yusuke Kozaki is the artist from Fire Emblem Awakening, and his designs really give a sense of character's personality. Lucina comes from a dark future, and exists as a glimmer of hope. Thus, she is draped in dark blue, but with bits of gold around her outfit.

So I'm satisfied. It doesn't matter to me she is a clone. Roy was a clone as well, and he got me into Fire Emblem after I mained him Melee. Clones are awesome. I even like the clone saga. Just not Attack of the Clones. I just want to play as Lucina, and I'm glad I have that opportunity.

Robin Rating: 100%
And even with all that emotion, her reveal wasn't even the highlight of the trailer. Robin's moves really amazed me and I love what they seem to be doing with the character. And Robin just seems like a universally cool character. I love the way he holds both the tome and the sword. And I'm really excited that we are getting to see the magic of Fire Emblem in Smash.

Robin is my second most wanted newcomer, with the above being the first. And Robin's selection was all about moveset possibilities, rather than just doing what was expected. That was why Sakurai unfortunately made fun of Chrom so much. And I love how the Tomes are limited in uses.

But the highlight of the reveal trailer was when Lucina says "Is that the Hero King himself?" and Robin retorts "and the Radiant Hero of Legend." And you realize just how far this series has come. From a japan only gem to one of Nintendo's best franchises. A GOTY contender with frequently tumblred characters. From near cancellation of the series, to a rebirth (or awakening if you will) of what the series could be. And Smash Bros has been integral to that process.

 

[Pacack]

I have to change my satisfaction on Lucina after this pic of the day. @ Groose , please ignore my previous score and put this in instead.

Lucina: 45%
She's okay, but she may be the least interesting clone we've ever had. As in, less unique than Roy. She doesn't have the tipper (doesn't have a huge sweetspot, apparently) and is shorter. That's all that he said. If that's the entirety of the differences, that's pathetic.

She's still very redeemable, though. I'll have to wait before writing her off completely.

 

[a Link to the Forums]

Robin satisfaction: 100%
He definetely is unique and that's really the selling point for me. Also, Chrom joins in for his final smash. Nuff said.

Lucina satisfaction: 50%
I am happy she made it but I can't stop thinking of how clone-y she looks. I don't really mind clones much as I mained Toon Link in Brawl but with all the newcomers so far, Lucina is an odd ball because of it and it saddens me.

Edit: Luckily Lucina shouldn't have taken up too much time because she is clone and because of that, I am thankful Sakurai did put squeeze her in the roster. Also, another female. I just have to change my satisfaction score because of that. I change my satisfaction score to 65%.

 

[Shotguner159]

Lucina - 100%
I like Lucina, and I don't mind that she's a clone, her being in is enough for me.
Robin - 20%
I don't like Robin.

 

[Xavier :D]

Robin Satisfaction: 100%
I really like this guy. I've never even played Awakening, and I see so much character in him/her just in their trailer.
Lucina Satisfaction: 100%
I think I've fallen in love with this character, like I said, I've never played Awakening, but I love this character based on the few cutscenes and this trailer. I'm very hyped for both of them.

 

[WeirdChillFever]

Lucina satisfaction: 50%
ALL moves are Marth cloned.
I don't care for Marth (In fact, he's my least played character in Brawl, so I won't care for Lucina either.)

Robin satisfaction: 90%
Solely based on the fact that this character uses knowledge to fight.
Claiming Female Robin as my waifu too

 

[ShrekItRalph]

I'm so glad that I decided to finally play Fire Emblem Awakening last week, I've had the game since the start of the year but didn't get around to it.

Lucina 75%
It's neat to see Lucina playable even if she is a Marth clone, at least it makes sense. And yes, she is another blue haired sword wielding lord, but the fact that she is such a clone at least means she probably didn't take away development time from the rest of the game.

Robin 95%
I think Robin was by far the best choice for the FE newcomer. S/he has an incredibly unique moveset which does a great job representing a different part of FE. That and I feel like S/he is more important than Chrom in Awakening so... tough luck Chrom.

 

[Nonno Umby]

Lucina: 40%
Always preferred Chrom over her. Also, she seems to be the WORST clone ever made.

Robin:75%
Interesting addition, very cool character, but not my favourite newcomer.

 

[Kenith]

Robin Satifaction: 100%.

Exactly what I expected he/she would be. The fact they use a Levin Sword as the standard moveset is pretty awesome, too. And the tomes running out is an interesting mechanic I want to know more about. And I know it's an obvious addition, but the addition of both genders is cool, too.

Lucina Satisfaction: 100%.

Ooooooooooooh snap!!!! This was great. The fact that we get Lucina AND Robin and not Chrom is pretty hilarious.
She is indeed a clone, but she appears to be faster, which is good because unlike Marth, she can totally rush people thanks the sweetspot on her blade being all of it.
And, also, second most wanted character, in the game. Just add Ghirahim and I will never question you again, Sakurai.

 

[MasterOfKnees]

Robin Satisfaction: 80% - First off, he's not Chrom. Secondly, I love that we got an actual magic user from Fire Emblem, and he looks to utilize it much more interesting than our only other magic user in Smash: Zelda. We can also choose both genders, and I dig his zig zag sword too. So yeah, they did lots of things right here. Still, he looks a tad slow compared to characters I like to play, and I'm not sure I'll be able to keep up with the book mechanic, but even if he doesn't fit my playstyle he still looks interesting and will at worst at least be a fun character to face off against.

Lucina Satisfaction: 85% - I'm not always big on clones, but something about Lucina just clicks imo. She looks to have less landing lag than Marth, the damage being balanced out on the whole blade potentially makes her play more like a rush-down character, and she has a cooler design too imo. She doesn't have the tipper, which is absolutely fine with me as I don't really like having to position myself accordingly all the time, never been good with the tipper. Still, she looks to be a bit too similar to Marth, hopefully she has at least a few unique moves up her sleeve. Regardless, she's certainly better than Roy, and I'll probably play her over Marth any day, she looks and sounds to be more my style.

CAPTAIN FALCON SATISFACTION BECAUSE YESH!: 100% - Kicked everyone's ass and knee'd Chrom off the roster. GG.

 

[TitanTeaTime]

Lucina satisfaction: 90%
Lost 10% for being a clone, which is a little bit disappointing... but it looks like she'll have a better air game than Marth, which is my preferred playstyle so I'll probably end up playing her anyway. I'm mostly satisfied that she's in the roster at all.
Robin satisfaction: 1500%
Oh yes. I lost hope for him, and even in the trailer I was expecting Chrom to be revealed after Lucina... but then Robin appeared. AND IT WAS AWESOME
Captain Falcon Because Why Not: 1500000%
YES

 

[Leafeon523]

Alright, here are my ratings:
Chrom deconfirmation: 10%
I actually really, really wanted Chrom in the game. I was ready for some unfortunate rejoice if he was deconfirmed, but I didn't expect it to be done in the trailer itself! Basically all I've hard since is people rejoicing and pissing on Chrom's corpse as If he was Sal Romano himself. At least the Chrom thread itself though was supportive, so I can't give this a zero.

Now my real ratings:

Robin satisfaction: 50%
I never really liked Robin at all in FEA. I tried to like him as a character for smash, but was basically shunned fro the Robin thread, so I gave up. Now that I've seen his playstyle though, I think I'm willing let it be water under the bridge... just not until all the Chrom hate fizzles out.

Lucina satisfaction: 90%
Two Marths? Ok! Perhaps because I never played the Days to future Past DLC, I've never thought of Lucina as more than a near-copy of chrom. And that's a compliment.

Captain Falcon: YESH%

 

[andimidna]

Wow this changes everything!
I still can't see the trailer because may e the Chinese hate themselves and they banned YouTube from the country, idk. All I know is that I haven't been able to get a single video working since I've been gone.
But who cares! You're going to count my satisfaction anyways!

I was feeling a bit down last night. And I guess that's what it takes to show yourself what you really like because when you all starting freaking out about the trailer I saw Lucina this and Robin that... And it was Lucina that got me hyped.
I hear she's a Marth clone. Oh well. I like Marth. Don't we all? Y'know, this may sound strange, but there's actually a lot of potential for a Marth clone. Think about it. He was so popular in Melee and Brawl, and many of his fans that played him in the Smash 4 demo were disappointed. Give Lucina Brawl Marth's Dolphin Slash (or whatever it's called), give Lucina Roy's counter, make her lighter and faster, yet have her neutral special and A attacks be weaker. I heard she already has a different final smash. If this isn't true, it still doesn't change my score. She probably took almost no time to include. An easy extra. It's much different when you see cloned moves on a character you know took more development time than the rest of the characters on the roster. Mii fighters...
However, she would have been a 100 for me if she was unique. It's not like uniqueness doesn't matter to me, it does a good amount, but it's just, I mean, it's Lucina!
...in smash!!!

Robin I had started supporting more and more as time went on. And I hear that he's very unique with swords and magic, just as I always thought he'd be if he made it. Also he brought she. And female + uniqueness = automatic satisfaction from me. Also, both are from Fire Emblem, and there are only a few characters I don't like in the series. I've been playing a lot of Fire Emblem and Pac-Man on the plane rides. Which makes me appreciate their representation a bit more atm.
Oh, and speaking of Fire Emblem. This takes our character count for the series up to 4. Man does this feel good after being told 4 was impossible and that the series could only get 2 or 3! I wasn't crazy, I was right! >:D muahahaha

I'm interested in seeing Lucina's custom moves. We know she has an amiibo, she was on the picture of characters with them even before her smash confirmation. I hope they differ from Marth's. That would be a great way to make them appealing. The custom moves can turn clones into semi clones. Huh. That sounded more appealing in my head. How about: the custom moves can turn "Marth" into a "unique" fighter. Heh.

Oh, and pls no spoils on the trailer.. It sounds so amazing and I want to keep at least some of the surprise factor.

[Pureownege75]

Robin Satisfaction: 85%
Where to begin, he killed Gematsu and is yet another incredibly unique character being added to the roser. Every time we have seen a trailer, we have had a general idea of how they work, but Robin's play style is still not entirely known. We have been asking for a mage character for a while, and now we got him/her. The only reason this isn't 100%, is that I'm very early in my Fire Emblem Awakening playthrough, so the character isn't one that I'm very familiar with or one that I was particularly hoping to get in. Still though, I'm excited for him/her

Lucina Satsifaction: 5%
I don't like clones. I was mad when it was announced that Toon Link was coming back, and I'm mad now. Not only that, but I feel that with 4 characters, Fire Emblem is a little overrepresented. Sure Awakening did great, but that was the only entry that did great (globally). There are other series that still only have two reps, and Fire Emblem has four now. But that's a different discussion. Lucina is just an utter disappointment for me, but at least we got Robin to make up for it.

 

[colder_than_ice]

Robin satisfaction: 100% - Easily my favourite newcomer so far. He looks awesome and his moveset looks great. I was a huge Chrom supporter coming in to this but thankfully he won me over quickly so I wasn't too upset.

Lucina satisfaction: 60%
This may seem like a low score after I gave her a 100% want rating, but I find myself surprisingly underwhelmed by her inclusion.
Maybe it's because of her awkward looking model.
Maybe it's because she's a clone.
Maybe it's because Robin looked so much better in comparison.
Maybe it's because I'm still bitter that not just one but two Awakening characters got in ahead of Chrom.
Maybe it's because four Fire Emblem characters feels like overkill when Donkey Kong, Metroid, and Kirby still have less.

 

[PWN3]

Let's give this a shot. Take note that my only exposure to Fire Emblem has been through the first twenty-ish minutes of FE8, Smash, the super-good-and-best-thing-ever OVA and some reading of the various manga out there.

Lucina: 50%
I'm gonna lame it out and go straight in the middle on this one. She's a cool character, but she's a pretty sad excuse for a fighter. Seeing a clone as boring as her in a game so hype really does make me disappointed. Even Roy was more unique than Lucina is, and I'm saying that lovingly as a Roy main. Given a little (read: a lot) of work, she could become a really awesome addition to the roster, but the way she is now just feels underwhelming.

Robin: 90%
He's no ordinary swordsman. Robin never ever really ranked all that high on my "most wanted" lists or anything, but seeing such a crazy-awesome moveset and style forces me to love the character more than I did. I'm a sucker for spellswords, and Robin looks like a pretty sexy spellsword in my books.

Ha. Books.

Chrom de-confirmation: 100%
Chrom to me always seemed like such a boring character, and I never understood the hype for him. As far as I'm aware he was just a really angry dude with a damn good cape, a new Falchion and a spear... Further research confirmed that he was just a really angry dude with a damn good cape, a new Falchion and a spear. Doesn't seem like much of a loss to me, but again, my knowledge of Fire Emblem is pretty limited.

Captain "Better than You" Falcon: Immeasurable.
HYES. C'MON.

 

[xLemmy_KoopaX]

Robin Satisfaction: 100%
Finally a magic-using rep for Fire Emblem! And his item management gimmick looks cool too, although we need more information on that. He also killed Gematsu with Lucina, which was the bane of all speculation.

Lucina Satisfaction: 70% Character + 10% Gematsu destruction satisfaction = 80%.
She has some differences to Marth, like the Side B looking a lot different and the tip mechanic not being used by her, which already is proof that she's not a complete moveset clone like Brawl!ToonLink or most of the Melee Clones, and I expect her to play a tad different then him. I also see others pointing out that her air game looks different, but she's still nothing really new. I still really like her though. I give her another 10% for killing Gematsu with Robin.

Overall newcomer satisfaction: 88,18% is an great number.

 

[ZecaOMestre]

Robin Satisfaction: 100%
Robin's such a great and different character from Awakening. I really hope we have more options to customize it though (look-wise)

Lucina Satisfaction: 70%
Loved when I saw her there in the trailer, but her being a clone looks like a stepback in the series (especially beause we had a Marth clone before).

 

[Iggy K]

Robin Satisfaction: 100%

I always thought Robin was by far the best choice for the next Fire Emblem character, but thought he was a long shot due to Gematsu. I didn't understand why with all the emphasis on uniqueness this game how he could then go and pick Chrom instead of Robin. Happy to see that it looks like Sakurai agreed with me.

Lucina Satisfaction: 60%

I really like Lucina in Awakening, but it's hard for me to care about her too much here considering how similar she is to Marth. But considering it probably didn't take much resources to add her in I don't really mind. I actually think it's a good idea for Sakurai if they had spare time and resources after creating the initial roster to pad it out a bit by including some characters as clones to at least make more people happy. Well... as long as they're actually popular choices that wouldn't have bee in otherwise like Dixie or Impa, and not something like Dr. Captain Falcon.

 

[Burigu]

I know there are poor souls out there who don't have access to Miiverse, in an attemp to bring a truly piece of art to everybody, will put here a random pic of the day, I choose this one based on color, bright and shades this is truly a master piece, almost art, and not because it shows I was rightso enjoy!

I am just kidding people I will drop this topic from now on there is no longer need to convince anyone

 

[Sid-cada]

Lucina Satisfaction - 52.5%

Huh. I'm not entirely certain what to rate her as of now. I'll admit to liking her more than Chrom, and she did put a part in taking Gemastu apart, but on the other hand she's a clone, and not very distinctive compared to Marth in comparison to about all the clones on the roster. Tentative acceptance for now, but that may change as time goes on.


Robin Satisfaction - 70%

Beats the WFT, at least. Admittedly I honestly find tomes to be fairly boring in Fire Emblem, so I'm not particularly enthusiastic about that (When can we get a staves user? That's more interesting to me.) I'm also a bit miffed about how the Levin Sword was taken away from Anna (I still want her, dang it!), as I associate the sword more with her (and the Trickster Class in general above all the others. Eh, I at least acknowledge that he could be interesting, though he just doesn't do it for me.

Lucina Satisfaction - 0% The only character since Greninja I'm legitimately mad about. Two FE fighters, one of which is 95% clone. Pathetic and uneeded. Where's Chrom? Oh look, part of Robin's FS. So have a crappy clone because more females. She may also take away slots from other more deserving fighters. FE Overload = Me legitimately upset. No K. Rool? No Shulk? RH? Mewtwo? TAKAMRARU? No, crappy clone.

Robin Satisfaction: 50% - Would've preferred Chrom so Gematsu would be true, but Robin looks fun to play as. Something of a mage is a cool fighter.

Robin: 100%
I'm so glad Robin is in the game. I lost some hope after that leak. Not only was Robin revealed instead, but now I have hope for the other characters that I support.

Lucina: 50%
I love Lucina and I'm glad she's in the game. But I'm upset that she's a clone. No matter the character, I'd rather them have a more unique moveset.

Well I was really hoping for one of my most wanted yesterday, but instead not only did one of my most wanted get deconfirmed, but someone I didn't want got confirmed. Oh well, time for satisfaction.

Robin Satisfaction: 50%

Eh. I can understand why he was picked, but I'm not a fan of them and I doubt I'll be playing as them too often. I can live with their inclusion but I'm not excited about it.

Lucina Satisfaction: 80%

Whereas I do like Lucina and I plan on playing as her quite a bit. Her being (semi-)clone is understandable, plus she's a clone of one of my favorite fighters. It does make her less exciting than others however, and I do feel like FE may have been over-represented, so I can't give her 100%

Here we go again with the logical fallacy that Smash bros characters "steal slots."

Here we go again with the logical fallacy that Smash bros characters "steal slots."

Not only that, but he claims clones of all characters do so.

The easiest way to look at it is that clones are bonus characters, they're only here because they had enough time to beef the roster up a little bit more, but not enough for a fully fledged newcomer. Not counting Lucas and Luigi this has been the case with every clone.

 

[False Sense]

Here we go again with the logical fallacy that Smash bros characters "steal slots."

Ironically, the fact that Lucina probably had about as much development time as an alternate gender costume (if today's update is any indication) means that she probably didn't take up much time or resources at all.
