Official Smash Ultimate Discussion

Almost one month has passed since release. In retrospect....

  • This is by far the best Smash ever. Like, I don't even know how they will top this.

  • Pretty freakin' good; I have a few qualms over things like internet play, balancing issues, etc.

  • It's ok, but [insert Smash game here] is better.

  • I'd rather play Parcheesi.

So how is the Grinch doing this fine day? I haven't been keeping up lately :p
The Grinch might have 15 Hours to live.

His life is in the hands of one man, Masahiro Sakurai.

Will the Grinch live or die? Find out tomorrow!

ice climbers, isabelle, and ken are some pretty obvious choices. ken, inc, minecraft content, steve, and isaac AT arent even confirmed yet though.

id also be on board with the "all of the smash 4 vets returning" 'leak' if that also wasnt something that couldve just been guessed aside from maybe the third party dlc
Ken definitely wasn't till after Richter got revealed. Regardless, I was listing everything. Did I forget to say Square Enix rep(base or dlc)? My bad.

I think the rumoured bethesda content is either a Pain Elemental AT, a Cyberdemon boss or an Aldiun boss.
If there's nothing, It'll be odd and could point to bethesda DLC down the line (unless Pete Hines was being sarcastic, that isn't translated well over text).

Would Matt know if Dante was in smash? Itsuno would definitely know, but I’m not sure about Matt.
"Yes, my character is in Smash Bros even though it isn't public knowledge yet.

Also, I'm going to get sued"

This argument never works because NDAs exist

Hey everyone, I'm feeling so hype. Just a couple more hours to go and all (or most) of our question will be answered. Leaks or no leaks, show pride and support for your most wanted characters to the end (politely of course) for tomorrow will be the greatest AT War ever to hit all Smash Fans.

Be happy for those who's characters are unscathed from the Melee, and welcomed into the Halls of Smash for fortune smiles fondly on the patient and the lucky, and be respectful, and supportive for those who's characters have fallen in the Brawl, and are AT'ed or lost to the void, for have we ourselves not felt the same pain as others in previous Smash games?

Everybody the time is soon upon us. For. One. Last. Time. List your top 5-10 picks and hope for the best. For those who happen to have all their most wanted characters, list characters that you wish others would get.
1. Amaterasu
2. Elma
3. Shantae
4. Sora
5. Rayman
6. Gardevoir
7. Valkyrie
8. Tetra
9. Fjorm
10. Fi

Honorable Mention: Blaze the Cat, Rex & Pyra, Saber, and Reimu.

I had the troll idea of Spheal as a Gen 3 rep

This is better because it can make reference to "too much water" as Wailmer can be found on all that "too much water".

Is there a support thread I can pledge my undying loyalty to?

Honestly? Real or fake, I'm kind of glad the Grinch leak happened. Before it, I thought I had a decent idea of what the roster would end up looking like. At this point, with everyone saying contradictory things and a picture that somehow hasn't been debunked yet, I have no idea what to expect. Plus, it led to a lot of interesting analysis and discussion.

If it does turn out to be real, though, Sakurai just had a bunch of huge surprises spoiled, and I'd feel really bad for the guy :/
if its fake i wish it never happened. it got my hopes up for geno finally getting in and i dont know if i could handle geno not getting it at this point lol

So, what would be your reaction if tomorrow we got Incineroar, Ken, Celica, and Dante? Sora is revealed at the VGAs as either base roster or DLC releasing shortly after the game releases.
Ken - Okay
Celica - Neat
Incineroar - Expected
Dante - WHAAAARGH THIS IS AWESOME :surprised:
Sora - *dies from hype* :skull:

What if we just get one condensed trailer for everyone in the Grinch leak?
Tbh far better than splitting the trailers.

I, as well as a majority of everyone, would probably die from hype overload in the span of what would be a pretty decently long trailer.

Also actually works with Sakurai's "don't expect a bunch of character trailer drops" as this would just be... one trailer. lol

Ok last predicition:

Newcomers: Isaac, Geno, Chorus Kids, Incineroar, Skull Kid, Banjo and Kazooie

Echoes: Ken, Shadow, Dixie Kong

Dlc announcement: Sora

Yes. We are getting all this characters. Everyone is here. And everyone is happy!
Hold on...Where’s the traditional retro rep?
Here I come, faster than the rest of them
The best of them, edgier than ever
You can call me Shadow, unlike Sonic I'm not shallow
Oh! Rub that burn with aloe


Chaos Control, my fate is foretold
I shoot 'em all down then I **** and reload
Unlike the rest I'm the ultimate life form
Bet the farm, firearms, settin' off alarms


Born in a test tube in the heavens
My memory of Maria guides me
My duty is to be an edge lord
Where's my Smash invitation?


I'm just a "dark Sonic", guess that's true
But ****in' Dark Pit's in here too



Wrote it in another thread for fun. Felt apt to copy and paste.

Better than Throw it All Away.

I could go pitch one. Maybe even ask the stock icon guy to make one for Wailmer.

Now that we're on the eve of the direct, and we are aware that this is the final smash exclusive direct, I've become even less convinced of the Grinch leak as a concept.

Not because of the insiders or whatever, but because they haven't talked about Spirit mode at all up to this point and I doubt they're saving it for a non Smash specific direct.

8 new comers + Spirits mode in 40 minutes is madness

I mean Sakurai is pretty crazy but that's still madness

Maybe tomorrow we'll get a couple and the others will be revealed down the line in non Smash specific directs, but the number still seems insane for how much time they have left

EDIT: But hey I'd love to be wrong

You know, I was thinking, all insiders have been rather silent for the presence of a Third Party tomorrow....
I was thinking if it was because of how secretive those characters are or not, if we believe Vergeben on Square-Enix's stance.
Like, Imran agree that there will be a Square-Enix rep, but he says to not be surprised if we don't see it tomorrow, implying DLC.
