Are you sure about that? because I still think that the Soulcaliber thing makes perfect sense.
A gamne goes gold about a month before launch, and the Tara tweet was less then that, so I doubt the game only went gold about 2 weeks ago

Which completely destroys the likelihood of that Decidueye leak. Because why would Sakurai need to go in-depth about his moveset when it would be most likely derived from Pokken Tournament?
I agree dose sakurai talk about 3rd party fighters first like simon because I feel there’s 1 more to be announced

A sad, sad place... may I have hugs? <3
Hello. :sadeyes:

So, recently, I have been wondering... should I try to make a Rottytops support thread? I mean, if you actually look at her, there's quite a large potential for her to have a fun and unique moveset. And obviously, being from the Shantae series, she'd fit in very well with the rest of the Smash cast very well, despite being a zombie.

...But it'd probably never happen, because despite how much I want her, I know the chances of her ever making it in are incomprehensibly low.

If Shantae got in the base Roster, i could see one of her supporting cast get a slot in the DLC.

Play around with some ideas for her moveset first, I don’t think anyone would mind if you post some ideas here before to make a separate thread

Hollywoodrok12 Hollywoodrok12 wrote this in the spread sheet and I want what you guys think about this

“Assuming Cristina Vee is, in fact, under an NDA, she would need to record new Voice Lines. While not impossible, it is unlikely that an Assist Trophy would need to have new lines recorded, since all they need to do is resuse some of her voice lines. These voice lines would be ""Ret-2-Go"", a few ""grunts"" for when she's attacking, some screams for when she's hit/KO'd, and her saying ""Transform!"" when she transforms, if she uses those to attack. It wouldn't be impossible for her to be recording new voice lines for an AT, but it wouldn't make sense for the Smash team to have to get her on board when they can just reuse voice clips that already fit the roles needed. Also, it is unlikely that they would reuse her voice lines for a fighter, since she would probably need some victory quotes besides ""All Clear!"". Because of this, the most likely result is that she had recorded new voice lines for a fighter.”

No, just a Peace sign and two flexing muscle emojis.
ParagonYoshi is asking is twitter has a sword emojii, not which emojiis Christina used. because if they do it would have made sense for her to use the sword if she was talking about soul Calibur.

Anyway, I don;t know if her first tweet was about SC. She said in that tweet she was just wrapping up and SC was probably done with most production stuff and enetering post production before she made that "wrap up" tweet.

Now she could have posted it late, she could have been doing DLC voicing, who knows, but i don;t think it;s anything to be concerned over

In that case, here's your answer.

Yup, two crossed swords would have been far more appropriate for a secret Soul Caliber post than flexing muscles. Thanks for the info, Toy!

Still not the main way of fighting in Soul Calibur.

Though, with that kind of thought process, you could say that Smash's logo should be a sword. ;)
Not really, Soul Calibur is a Sword game with some outliers. Smash is a punching/kicking game with it's own outliers. It's in the name. You might have some swords and guns, but those don't Smash, they slice and blast respectively.

There's another "Blog Post" leak. This time, it's claiming the next item will be the Killing Edge item, which is different from a character prediction as it's harder to pin down an explanation as to why it's showed off.

And yes, Shantae is listed as an AT.

hmm.. we'll have to see. I dont really trust the blog post leaks, as so far its just pure guessing with a bit of luck considering Nintendo has a habit of announcing characters or items on special days in their respective franchises history. Even then, thats just exploiting Nintendo's habits and framing it as a "see, im credible!".

Remember kids, pics or it didn't happen.

Good timing, it has an entire weekend before we can definitively prove it false.

Exactly. The longer it takes to prove a leak is fake, the more of a red flag it becomes.

Most people do leaks for attention, and they want to stay in the open for as long as possible.

That’s 64 AT in the game while sakurai said that there will be 50 sans is too new custom robo got its trademark canceled zero replaces electric man too many fe reps and the most important thing that makes this false......SHANTAES A FIGHTER NOT AN AT! (Man when will people learn?)
So yeah 110%fake
That gose for this whole thread if you see any text leaks that have shantae as an assist.....is is FAKE!
