Lana

Chance: 10%
She's relevant, I'll give her that. However, in all of Smash's history, spin-offs have never been used as the inspiration for newcomers (except with Dr. Mario). I doubt she'll get in.

Since we're on the topic though, I do find it a little hypocritical when certain people say Lana is unlikely due to being a Hyrule Warriors characters, but then they'll turn around and use the same game to make a case for why a young Impa is so likely for Smash 5. "It's different for Impa because she's recurring. Lana isn't."

As far as I'm concerned, HW doesn't exist when it comes to Sakurai selecting newcomers. He's never looked at spin-offs before, and I doubt this game will be any different. If people want to make a case for Impa, then they really need to stick with her appearance in SS. Otherwise, I'd say Lana has just as much of a chance to get in Smash as Impa.

Want: 20%
She's far from my first choice for a Zelda rep, but she'd likely be unique.

She's a spin-off only Zelda character. I doubt we'll get any new Zelda faces and even if we do she's far down on the ladder of priorities.

The only Zelda newcomer I want is Vaati unless a decloned Ganondorf counts.

Chances: 5%
Logic says she ain't happening but I have a gut feeling that Sakurai will like the character and that'd be all that matters if he ends up being the director, and if he isn't the director then I think she's extremely unlikely. I think she'll get in if Sakurai is the director, but I'll keep the score low because I'd like to keep some logic in my chance score and not have it be purely just my subjective nonsense.

I'm not opposed to Lana getting in, but I couldn't care less if she got in or not.

Double zeroes for Lana. If they're gonna pull from Hyrule Warriors, I doubt a spinoff character would be on their mind over someone like Midna, Tingle, or Impa. Does Nintendo even own Lana? She might be Koei Tecmo's, maybe.

Predicting a 1.2 for the mean-spirited joke.

Possible, but has other characters from the Zelda franchise and Koei Tecmo to compete with. You all know how I feel about the former's chances of happening.

Sure.

Prediction: Blue Bowser - 0% (or at least it should be)

Might as well rate Pink Gold Peach at this point.

Chance: 5% - The problem is that she really isn't very relevant at all, and there are zelda characters who are a lot more relevant. Being in a spinoff doesn't help.

Want: 1% - I don't really want her considering I had to google who this was.

Lana

Chance - 0%

She's from the Zelda franchise, a franchise that hasn't had its roster change in Smash for nearly two decades now: simply because all of the prominent, reoccurring Triforce wielders had been covered. It's already fairly unlikely that this will be changing anytime soon, simply because no Zelda character truly compares to Link, Zelda, and Ganon(dorf).

Even in the case a Zelda newcomer is added, it would likely be someone who isn't a one off, like a form of Impa or a proper Ganon moveset, or even someone like Tingle.

Hell, even in the case where a Zelda newcomer is added AND it just so happens to be a one-off character, it most likely wouldn't be someone from a spin-off only game, especially one made by someone other than Nintendo. It'd most likely be someone like Midna, or Skull Kid, or a BotW Champion.

And even in the case where a Hyrule Warriors character is added into the game, it would most likely just be Hyrule Warriors Impa, because there's a lot more outcry for her.

And even in one last final case of there being a Zelda newcomer who doesn't wield a Triforce, doesn't appear in multiple games, comes in a non-Nintendo made spinoff, AND isn't Hyrule Warriors Impa... she still would face competition from Cia, who is just as, if not moreso, important as Lana is.

It ain't happening.

Want - 0%

I would honestly be upset if we got a Zelda newcomer that came from a non-Nintendo made spinoff game over literally any other option for a Zelda character.

Why would they put a character that is not from the main franchise of Zelda? If only there was a "Warriors" then it's ok, but we also have a Fire Emblem Warriors... trash.

Although I still gave it a little chance because you can never know what will happen.

I do not want to know anything about Hyrule Warriors, tired of seeing him everywhere.

I hate to keep giving these 0s, but you know it is already hard for Zelda one-offs to get a spot, so how is a one-off from a Zelda spin-off going to fare any better?

Want: 20%
I didn't play Hyrule Warriors, but I'm planning on getting the Switch version, so perhaps I will care more for her once I play the game.

Unless Lana starts appearing in many mainline Zelda titles and becomes a highly promoted character outside of Hyrule Warriors, I do not see her becoming playable. There is not much to say about her situation.

...Oh, that other Lana...

Chance: 0%
She's basically another Geno case, tho it seems Nintendo own the rights of her and the other HW OCs as well. Either way, I don't see her getting in, as she has yet to reappear in a new game which isn't an umpteenth port.

And here comes the part where I'm not gonna be tender with her...

Want: -∞% (realistically: 0%)
I hate her.
I hate, despise, disrelish, abominate, loathe, abhor, execrate, DETEST her and all the other Herpes Warriors OCs, Linkle in particular.
Some of the users around here already know what I think of what the Zelda franchise has become these last years since Skyward Sword, but for the newcomers:
This herpes of a game has been the straw that broke the camel's back for me, as I was going to give a chance to a series I was a big fan of after how gigantic of a disappointment Skyward Sword was.
But then, the first trailer of this game alone backstabbed me as ever, with a spin-off game made for those fans, those never-shutting-up fans who kept insisting Nintendo to make this utter BS timeline coming true, to make a realistically-looking Zelda game, to put voice acting in Zelda games, and, above all, to make a female counterpart to Link.
And after that, this series started to get overmilked ad nauseam, from remakes to ports to pointless HD remasters to shovelwares to Breath of the Wild.
And since this day, I categorically refuse to play to any new Zelda game released after this one, as I don't want to take sides of this lunatic fanbase and the influence it succeeded to have on Nintendo.
And I honestly fear that, in a near future, Zelda will become to video games what Star Wars is currently becoming to movies.
Not quality-wise, oh no, but as I said above, quantity-wise, to the point it will alienate people's mind in order to demand for new Zelda games over and over again, until Nintendo will focus only on it and put away all their other ones, even Mario.
But going back to Lana, if she ever get added to Smash Switch, this might be sufficient enough to prevent me to get the game and to stay on Smash 4, unless there's one or many of my requested characters in.

Whatever you do, don't spell Lana backwards! :surprised:

Chance: 5%

Hails from a spinoff game which is apparently a death sentence for most characters not originating from a main series. She seems to be fairly popular among LoZ characters but it's really not substantial enough to break the barrier I mentioned before. If there's going to be any LoZ newcomers, it's going to come from BoTW. The best Hyrule Warriors can hope for is for their designs for Shiek and Ganondorf to transfer in Smash (which I personally want to see even though I don't think it'll happen).

Want: 15%

Not interested really. I also didn't like how Lana jacked Saria's niche of using Forest related abilities. I mean Saria is never shown using that specifically but we could infer that her being the Forest Sage would mean she could do that right? #JusticeForSaria

I've never thought of one-off characters from the Zelda series as being very likely newcomers, and Lana is far from an exception. I mean, yeah, now would be her time to join, if ever, since Hyrule Warriors is still fairly new, but has still been out for a few years prior to the development of this game. Still, characters like Midna, Zant and Ghirahim have never joined the fray, and the fact that Lana isn't even from the main series, but instead a spin-off, only hurts her chances more.

Want: 30%

Even thought I might not consider her my favorite character from HW, I still like her a fair bit and she can be really fun to play as, so I wouldn't be upset if she got into Smash.

Chance: 7% -
Spin-off character that may be third party owned like Geno who only had one game and has Impa and loads of first party Zelda contenders to deal with, but technically the only fitting character from her game which is relevant right now... So this is as much as I can give her
Want: 12% - If we get a Zelda Newcomer I want Impa, and though I adore Hyrule Warriors I just don't seem it necessary for Smash. Plus she just feels out of place in Zelda as an entirety, just like her other half.

Prediction: Blue Bowser

Um.... The hell is this? Is itthe chances of getting a blue palette swap? If that's the case, 100%.

If we're talking clone, then... 0%. Does this even have basis in a Mario game? Waste of nominations imo.

I don't think Lana is likely. If the Zelda series gets a newcomer it will most likely come from the mainline Zelda games. Spin-off characters usually get the Assist Trophy treatment like Waluigi.

Want: 1%
She could be fun I guess but I really don't lioe her. She doesn't seem like a Zelda character at all. She seems like some anime/JRPG character who accidentally wandered into a Zelda game. And considering how Hyrule Warriors doesn't seem like a real Zelda game, that is not surprising.

Eh has a shot due to being somewhat relevant in a spin off title. But she'll most likely suffer the same fate as other one-off Zelda characters. If there were concrete plans to include her in future titles, she'd definitely stand out more.

I also think moveset wise, she could intrigue Sakurai. She has a theme that can be used for inspiration.

She's cool. I don't care if she is Koei OC, she has a sweet design and interesting movepool to use. My most wanted Zelda newcomer, actually. Yes, you may throw stones at me.

Not sure if she is in the Geno situation where but instead of Square having a say it would be Koei Tecmo and where that may not be a big issue seeing as though they and Nintendo are getting along nicely I see them going for Hayabusa instead at that point if they want to collaborate. Even if that is not the case I think they wil go with someone else who is involved in the main series.

Hyrule warriors did very well for nintendo. I would be shock if we did not get any refrence to this game at all. Thats being said lana, while chances are low still has some chance to appear. I think people are underestimating how easy it is to get hyrule warriors licensing fron koei(fatel frame is coowned by them). Really her only obstecle is Linkle and Impa, since both are just as important to the game as lana(impa more than linkle). I also think that as far as spinoff goes sakurai dosent really mind adding charcaters from them as long as they have moveset potential( geno, a spinoff character, has been wanted by sakurai since brawl as an example

I would love for her to be like a trapster mage, where she pays down walls and uses them later in battle to increase her powers. Plus we need more mages in battle. She'd be very unique and i would live to add her, fitting the zelda character theme or not.

Chance: 2%
Lana isn't even a true Zelda character. She's a character made by a third party company for a Dynasty Warriors game with a Zelda skin. If she were to get into Smash as playable it would likely be to represent the Warriors spin off games involving Nintendo characters. Like how Wario represents WarioWare instead of the Mario franchise. With Breath of the Wild being the prominent Zelda game right now I'm not banking on seeing any Hyrule Warriors content aside from maybe some trophies.
I'll give the White Sorceress a chance of 2%. Spin off characters seem to really have it rough...

Want: 0%
She's about as generic as it gets. I don't care for her much. I think she's just fine in Hyrule Warriors, but if she were to get into Smash over other characters who are waiting their turn (especially Zelda characters) I would hate that.

Chance: 3%
So far, the only playable character who has only appeared in only spin-offs is Dr. Mario, a clone who was made to pad the roster in Melee and 4. Lana could potentially be the first playable non-clone spin-off only character, but that first will likely go to someone like Waluigi or Daisy since they have both been requested for a far longer time, are much more popular, and are a lot more relevant. Also, Sakurai will likely look to Breath of the Wild or Zelda characters who have consistently been highly requested. Due to her lack of relevance in the Zelda franchise as a whole, relatively low amount of support for her becoming a playable character, and the lack of spin-off characters on the roster at the moment, Lana has little to no chance making it into Smash 5.

Want: Abstain
I know little to nothing about this character.

Wait... The last game in the franchise you actually enjoyed was Wind Waker?

I'm kind of "eh" with voice acting (I usually play with the japanese voices because I like my consistency) in Breath of the Wild... But personally I enjoy it a lot more that the games between Wind Waker and Breath of the Wild (Disclaimer: I haven't play Wind Waker yet, sorry).

Chance - 13%
Obviously I'm going to try to be honest here. But I do tink people underestimate her chances a bit. She's actually not THAT unlikely if you ask me. Sure, she's from a spin-off, but maybe it's about time spin-offs got some love? That's a perfect chance. Hyrule Warriors sent very well, and that's on the mildly successful console -Wii U. And actually other characters either have problematic "niches" for playability or would have to be inspired from HW. Champions have little screen time in BotW to be frank. Besides, there are 4 of them. And I can't see them ocupying 4 slots or 1, other options would be ridiculous idea. Biggest problem is the fact she IS from a spin-off. Obviously.

Want -100%
That's the last time you'll see this 100%. I nly want Rayman and her THAT much. She's my 2nd character ever (and ironically, this 1st isn't Rayman, but Sonia Strumm, the cutie on my avatar) and did have a certain impact on my life, would even say changed me a bit. So no matter how likely or UNlikely she'd be, she'll have my 100% support.

Lana ("You got your anime on my Legend of Zelda!")
Chance: 3%
Another very unlikely character. We all know how one-off Zelda sidekicks have been treated in previous Smash games, and considering Lana comes from a third party spin-off... Well, I doubt her inclusion very much. Sure, she's decently popular, but so are about 10 other Zelda characters with much more merit to their name.

Want: 0%

You know those weird human kids from Mario Golf and Tennis that stuck out like a sore thumb and looked really out of place?

Yeah, that's Lana and Cia for me.

On top of that, there are just so many other Zelda characters I would rather see, making Lana one of those characters whose inclusion would genuinely bother me.

Lana

Chance - 0.5% - I don't think Nintendo even fully owns her. That does not bode well for chances. If they are going to put in a third party character, it'd be one of the companies' flagships or mascots, not one of their cross-promotional OCs. We all know how Geno ended up, right?

Want - 20% - Vaati not appering in HW was disappointing.

Prediction

Blue Browser - 0.03% - ...Can this be a double day?

Wait... The last game in the franchise you actually enjoyed was Wind Waker?

I'm kind of "eh" with voice acting (I usually play with the japanese voices because I like my consistency) in Breath of the Wild... But personally I enjoy it a lot more that the games between Wind Waker and Breath of the Wild (Disclaimer: I haven't play Wind Waker yet, sorry).
I wouldn't take him too seriously. He's had an embarrassingly over the top hatred of the franchise ever since he felt his precious Metroid didn't get "the recognition it deserved on its anniversary" and got overshadowed by Zelda. :p

Lana

Chance/Want: 15% (wow I've gotten really pessimistic)

I have not played HW but I have played the fate/night one. And I find the Dynasty Games boring. Sure the attacks look cool and It's got the Zelda sticker on it. It also sold really well. It's just that I don't see Lana as a playable as other people do. The thing is she's got other bigger characters to worry about. It's not at all that she is not deserving of a place some where in smash. She could still work as an assist trophy or just a trophy in general. My rating would be more higher if Nintendo would do more with her. If they do own the rights to the HW OCs.

Nomination: Django x5
