Rock, Paper, Scissors?

[TP8bitPyro]

with all the 3 types you think they may be weak to each other? because it got me thinking what if they were based some what on the concept of the rock paper scissors thing. I see sword being scissor for obvious reasons, brawler being rock and gunner being paper. do you agree with my little theory? its all just a small speculation on this

yes

edit: I'm am quite certain that they meant for it to be that way, but I doubt that the advantages will be very extreme

Would be a cool idea conceptionally, but I doubt that it would work in a game like Smash bros where skill prevails over power, maybe in a game like Pokemon that would work, but I doubt that this is the case

Still, sakurai himself has stated that part of character balancing is really about making sure each character has ones he is better and worse againset
