I'm just hoping Shantae doesn't get a mii costume tomorrow so that she still has a shot of getting in. Can you imagine the combinations people would make if they gave her mii costume a tube top? It would be Sans abominations everywhere.
I don't think we will see a Shantae Mii costume later. But I do believe we will see a Indie Mii costume that has close relations with Nintendo.

Apparently there is a lot of buzz (no pun intended) around a Mii costume based on The Knight from Hollow Knight.

Based on the deluxe miis we've gotten so far that cover up the ugly mii faces, I think The Knight, Shovel Knight, and Quote are all good bets for indie mii costumes.

That would be very weird. Rayman it made sense as rabbits are big on their own, same with the assassin. Shantae is the biggest wayforward property by a landslide

Thank goodness. The ramen did give it away for me, though.

Spirits Deconfirm is dead. Now we wait for the goalpost to be altered.

Spirits officially eligible for Fighters Pass 2. Well, Base game Spirits at least.

Thank you Min Min!

This is honestly the best case scenario for us. If it were Spring man people would be making arguments that only Assist trophies were important enough to be upgraded or some such nonsense. Right now all the Assist Trophy characters are still in a nebulous Limbo on if they might get a chance, but now everyone that is just a spirit in the base game is fair game. Great time for the likes of Shantae, or Dixie Kong or so many other great over looked characters.

Now we just need to escape any possible Mii costume announcement if they decide to talk about other pieces of DLC being released along with Min Min.

Shantae lives to see another day it seems, not only do Spirits not deconfirmed but she survived the Mii costume massacre.

Well Shantae is not a Mii Fighter costume this time around either so another dodge.

Not only that, but the "deluxe" Mii Costume this time wasn't an indie character so there is less reason for people to suspect that every popular indie darling is doomed for a deluxe Mii

I don't watch those directs.
So can you give me a brief summary on the new content that will come?
So Min Min is the new fighter. Breaking another stupid fan rule.

Anything else?

Vault boy is a mii costume, you can now rematch spirits at any time if you own them, The smash team released video tips for hard spirit battles, joker amiibo and hero amiibo announced, along with the other and future dlc characters.

The stage is Spring Stadium, which comes with 18 songs (two of them are remixes).
The Mii costumes are for Callie and Marie from Splatoon, Heihachi from Tekken, Ninjara from ARMS, and Vault Boy from Fallout. (none of them come with songs)
All of this comes out June 29th.
Joker and Hero amiibo are in development, and are currently scheduled for a fall release - only the Luminary (the hero of Dragon Quest 11) was shown as far as Hero's alts go.

Thanks.

The spirit thing hardly matters though.
Most of them are still straight up unfair.
Which IMO is the first and foremost thing that should be improved about Spirit Battles.

I guess the answer was obvious after the Party Crash Bash

It's super fitting the thing that destroys the stupid spirit rule was a literal fist from a game called ARMS punching it to oblivion. Min Min clears the way!
