I hope we get a 3rd Fire Emblem character that isn't Roy or Chrom, that way both sides will be wrong and neither get to gloat. It'd be ok though because both sides can be sad together. Just try not to argue over which kind of tissue paper is better to cry into. :troll:

Here's a new topic, would you feel if Quote (from Cave Story) replaced Snake on the SSB4 roster?

i like him. i feel like he strikes the brawl balance perfectly and he wouldn't feel inaccurate. there isn't much need to change or restrict his abilities.

It would seem the peaceful days of tending my garden will have to wait while I take care of these matters the rest of you cannot.

At this point it's a rather pointless debate because neither character are going to provide much, It's rather asinine that people are going out of their way to have these silly debates that is overall going to lead to the same scenario. A character is simply there and provides little to a franchise that should provide a lot more. It's like trying to pick between a honeycrisp apple and gala apple, who the **** cares it's still a bloody apple regardless. Don't know why one would magically be better then the other if they are going to be on par with each other either way. What, because one has fire? Please.

I don't know, I like Gala Apples a lot better. Apparently so much that I turned them into a proper noun.

Two Fire Emblem characters only.

There are other franchises with sword characters. Let us not lord overload. NO overlording.

wait why does fire emblem only have a two character limit but kirby gets three?

...rather than pursue that, i'm just gonna wet dream about a fire emblem only fighter. emphasis on fighter, not SRPG... cuz y'know that already exist.

and let's be fair. Fire Emblem has more than sword characters. note how of the people i listen only one is a sword exclusive character? Lyndis. and she wields her weapon differently than more anyone in the game. Hector's got the Axe, Ephraim's got the Lance, and Lyon's got dat magics

marth and meta knight being bland has given everyone a bad taste in their mouth for how interesting a character wielding a sword or any other weapon can be.

SoulCaliburPlz You could take a single character from that game and make 2 interesting unique fresh smash movesets alone. If for any reason Ganondorf were to bring his broadsword and use even 3 or 4 of knightmares signature moves, adapted speed, power, and animation wise for smash?

I kinda though that Isaac would use Ragnarok or Gaia Blade as a final Smash. It just seems cool to have a giant, glowing, golden sword shoot down from the sky an wreck house. But Judgement is cool in its own right.

I might not be a big fan of Marth myself, but he's the one character that fits the swordsman archetype the best gameplay wise. As for Meta-Knight, well I think he has a few things that set him apart from other sword users. For one, he can turn into a tornado. And he has a teleport, which isn't that common either. And the dude has four recovery options in Brawl.

Meta Knight is insane, and his specials are all crazy stupid. but his normals are well... swipe. Swordsmen characters similar to metaknight don't really have anything you can say bad about them and that's where people like me see them as boring. he's the best swordsman in dreamland and similar to strider he swings so fast you'll only see a blur. his specials speak for him alot more and that aspect of him i like quite alot.

Don't get me wrong, Marth gets the job done. But the aesthetic of his setlist and animation are well... they're fitting for Marth. They're 1988. That's not a bad thing, it's a bland thing... if i were to make a comparison that will surely send me to hell. Take a look at the lightsaber duels from Star Wars eps. 4-6 and the duels from 1-3. Say what you will about the movies, no on can deny that phantom clone wars and revenge didn't have more dynamic battles. Dual wielding acrobatics, weirdo jedi and sith like greivous. That's the place where Ike is representing. Yeah i've just got this sword but i'm gonna do some crazy ass **** with it.
Marth is coming from "yes i'm armed with a weapon just about no on else has. the tip is super deadly NO STAY AWAY" It's literally swipe in every direction when he gets airborne. you're supposed to cover yourself but FFS man.

then again that's just my opinion, that marth and mk are bland. most characters in the game have an area of themselves even when attacking where they are vulnerable even on the side they are attacking. not these two. and personally i don't like that about them.
compared to the swordstyles or link, ike, or even the essence of roy [which was implemented poorly in melee, and i'm looking forward to seeing how it'll play out in PM]

feel free to flame. i find them bland
