All about sales, my friend.
Anyway, back to discussion whilst listening to the Soundtrack. Anyone expecting Zelda on Thursday? If so, do you expect any changes to her?

Well, DK is about as big as Bowser, and K. Rool is even bigger than DK. So I guess?

I do not expect Zelda on Thursday.
Not do I expect any major changes in moveset, although Zelda needs to be buffed.

Holy ****, it's been aeons since I last heard of this show!
So King K Rool is the 1%, now?
What gold?
The golden belly is old news.

I kinda already expect Rosalina to be light overall, I bet she's pretty slow considering the fact she has Luma as her side-kick.

I'm sorry, but that joke was just ****ing hilarious.

What she might lack in speed could be made up by her approach options; the Luma could always send the opponent flying towards Rosalina's attacking range.

As long as I remind to knock off Luma first, I'll probably do fine against Rosalina.
I feel like the biggest pro already.

Rosalina looks like a big target, with slightly low weight and slower than most. However, she probably makes this all up for range and reflection properties. Projectiles won't do **** to Rosalina. Falco's lasers for example wouldn't do her much.

Rosalina's reflector attack looks very bad...
It's like Mewtwo's side B in Melee.
It only protects from projectiles,but not reflect them...pretty useless if you ask me.
The normal shield is a better option lol

I wonder if you are able to hold the projectiles shot, I think that would be a real cool move for Rosalina.

Except it covers her entire body, attracts items towards her, and kinda looks like it deflects projectiles rather than reflecting them.

Still useless IMO,well,maybe not in item matches,but that's not competitive.
It's moreso viable in Doubles Play.

It does depend on your point of view though, since opponents can just block their own projectiles with their own shields if they get reflected. And of course, the star barrier wouldn't cause your shield to shrink either.

I'm a bit late on this, but I think Tingle has loads of potential for moveset and he's extremely iconic. It's just a war between his popularity and his infamy at this point; people either love or hate him. The characters we've seen so far actually make me feel a bit better about his chances though, due solely to how unique and strange he is.
Also, I'm an actor as well! If anybody wants to see my films or skits or anything...there's actually probably a board for that, I'll look for it.
As far as Rosalina's reflector goes, we really have to see how her whole moveset goes together. Maybe there's a good reason she doesn't deflect projectiles?

In multiplayer, I can see her reflector being really useful. If someone is throwing a fully charged projectile (like Samus' Charge Shot), you can putt up your reflector, and it can go hit the person behind you for massive pwnage.

But,the point is that Rosalina's attack doesn't reflect projectiles to the enemy,the projectiles goes behind her.

This will make you wonder if the projectile will be Rosalina's after it touches the barrier.
It's still better than seeing your shield get broken.

Could be helpful against Link/Peach users, though.

Rosalina's barrier will be useful against Mega Man for sure.

Rosalina's gravity shield will probably be rather effective with Link/Toon Link's bombs, Peach's turnips and Mega Man's Metal Blades. There is an interesting question, though. Will Rosalina be able to deflect items/ item projectiles like the ones above? For example, let's say that Rosalina is between Mega Man and Samus. Will Rosalina be able to deflect both the Metal Blade and the Charge Shot, or will she pull in the Metal Blade and only deflect the Charge Shot?
I think that the likely reason is that there are certain qualities to the Metal Blade. It's in a normal projectile state, until it hits the ground or a platform. It's then an item. Rosalina can deflect the item if it's in the projectile state, but will pull it in if it's in the item state. Since bombs and turnips are always in the item state, she'll draw them in.

Probably won't hurt her much if it is useless, most of the better characters in Brawl had useless moves. She'll get a lot of complaints in item matches though.
I feel like she's going to be awful in most competitive matches but amazing in Doubles and Odd Matches. She's likely to be a counterpick to projectile heavy characters.

I disagree. Only the Ice Climbers had some bad special moves. MetaKnight, Diddy, Olimar, Snake and Falco have crazy good specials.

That's a paddlin'
I can see Rosalina being the ultimate clutch character for doubles.

Versus a triple rosalina tag-team, I'll probably get owned.
