Smash Ultimate Leak Discussion Thread

[Shroob]

I don't play Granblue- do you mind explaining why that's weird?
Would be good to know


Agreed.
I'm expecting a sort of bomb soon...

Like I said, it'd be akin to Marth being shunned for Jaegen in Melee.


Katalina is your first real party member, but that's 'all' she is. She plays a big role in the game's plot, but she's a secondary character.


Like, the only reason I can assume she'd be in over anyone else is she seems to be the main character of the PS4 exclusive Granblue game by Platinum, but that seems odd to promote a game not coming to the Switch.

Do you mean like an ESRB leak 2.0?

 

[Hinata]

I legitimately expect to wake up tomorrow and find out that another character was leaked by the same dude who posted the Ken pic. I can feel the oncoming storm.

 

[ChocolatGelgato]

I can find the original post, but it's worth noting that the steve/granblue guy also talked about and listed the specs of the Switch Pro.

Which yeah, to me that makes it sound like you have both real info mixed with bull****.

 

[Shroob]

I'm on team "I only give this any consideration because of Verg"

Is Djeeta a short haired blonde? I see a lot of, ahem, "fanart" of her around.

Yeah, Djeeta's the blonde with a bob-cut.

 

[CyberHyperPhoenix]

Fingers crossed Ken, if he is in, has the two Final Smash gimmick as well.

Maybe a combination of his SF2 and his SFV OR his third SF3 Super?

 

[Q-Long]

how accurate do you think vergeban / etc. are?

ESRB, as in 100% or Gematsu as in 50%

 

[vaanrose]

The Steve CSS screenshot floating around has the end of the CSS rows as Snake, Villager, Duck Hunt, and Random.

This suggests a 6x12 grid. With only 12 spaces in the bottom row and 9 left of Isabelle, there is no room for Ken.

The creator of this fake CSS image did not include Ken, as Ken was only leaked today. GG.

I'd bet good money on a final 6x13 grid.

 

[Rie Sonomura]

I’d say 75-80%. A little more accurate than Gematsu but doesn’t have absolutely everything like the ESRB leak did

 

[Opossum]

Ken Leak is without a doubt real. Any attempts to kill it have only made it stronger.

 

[Pyra]

I hope so... could use something more exciting.

Do you mean like an ESRB leak 2.0?

Wonder if this will prompt them to try to beat the leaks by revealing the rest of the characters officially at some point in the near future™

Like I said, it'd be akin to Marth being shunned for Jaegen in Melee.

Oh, gotcha.

 

[Volt-Ikazuchi]

I wonder how are they going to deal with Ken. Dude has been luigified to the point he doesn't even share most of his normals with Ryu anymore, and he definitely doesn't have Ryu's Collarbone Breaker and Joudan.

 

[Originality]

Oh here we go. Does this recent ken leak have a name we can refer to other than "Ken leak"?

 

[Door Key Pig]

Does this Ken leaker have access to the whole roster, or just an incomplete one? Could his build have the latter because of reasons of secrecy or testing certain scenarios for specific characters??

 

[Exalt4747]

Ken Leak is without a doubt real. Any attempts to kill it have only made it stronger.

.....

They actually have.

Someone should take a gif of Ken parrying Chun-li, and put "Ken leak" on Ken.

 

[Sigran101]

Well considering I mainly go to the general thread to keep up on potential leaks, I guess I'll just stay here. It'll be nice to have this all condensed.

 

[SvartWolf]

Gonna be straight with you, chief.


As someone who is an actual Granblue Fanatic, Cygames choosing Katalina of all characters isn't just bizarre, it's just.....no?


That'd be like if Jaegen got in over Marth.

i know jack about Granblue, so please enlighten me... isn't katalina teh protagonist of that high profile ps4 game too?

(it would be a shame cause i adored teh design)

 

[Ramen Tengoku]

Oh here we go. Does this recent ken leak have a name we can refer to other than "Ken leak"?

What about The "Likely Legit Leak"?

 

[Luigi The President]

Oh God. Imagine what this leaker can do.

The power...the raw....awesome....POWER...

 

[Shroob]

We honestly don't really know.

Platinum and Cygames have given us one gameplay trailer.


It 'seems' that way, but there was also artwork floating around of a not!Djeeta who looked like she could be the protagonist as well.

 

[Sigran101]

Oh here we go. Does this recent ken leak have a name we can refer to other than "Ken leak"?

Maybe the debug leak?

 

[Pyra]

If Steve gets in I hope it's stylized like "Steve?"
Gotta give Xander a reason to actually say a name like that for once.

 

[TaichiYaegashi]

how accurate do you think vergeban / etc. are?

ESRB, as in 100% or Gematsu as in 50%

Vergeben is sitting around an 85 or 90% for me right now and the Ken leak is like 98 - 99%.
Vergeben is lower because some information could be wrong/old, akin to Gematsu's leak for Smash Wii U & 3DS. I know the dude has real information, that's blatantly obvious, the question is will all of it end up being true (like the Square Enix fighter for example, if they are ever even named.)

So apparently someone on 4chan was able to find a similar "set-up" to the leak to compare.

 

[TheKnight]

Maybe the debug leak?

I kind of prefer Ken Leak.... Gets straight to the point. Unless the issue here is being spoiled by the name or something.

 

[ChocolatGelgato]

Oh God. Imagine what this leaker can do.

The power...the raw....awesome....POWER...

With this guys choices the leaker's probably gonna show us all of yoshi's taunts just to prove they're the same as before or something minor like that

I know which thread you got that from, read further down. A post that's replying to 3 other people with an image from SmashBoards.

The guy who took that first picture posted in the main thread. He actually took that first shot at a demo in response to the leak.

 

[The_Naraotor]

Oh God. Imagine what this leaker can do.

The power...the raw....awesome....POWER...

He can flow us like this

Or like this

 

[Tornado_Man]

Team Real for me.

Now leaker guy, can you tell me if Ken's Stage is in too?

I wish, anyway

 

[barleyy]

Hopefully this is the right place to post. Messed with the levels/color. I think it's legit.

Put it on a neutral background so it's easier to tell!

 

[Mellowy Yellow]

So, who expects that guy saying Stanley is in to have an actual LEGIT video and photo or just have another excuse to not show anything

 

[Aurora Jenny]

Welp, been a well, since I've seen this. Hello again! About that Ken leak. I'm boggled as to WHY someone would go to the trouble of leaking this if they didn't have some kind of follow-up. Ken seems like an obvious choice.

 

[Ramen Tengoku]

I just realized. If this is legit, will this be our first Smash Ultimate Photo Leak invloving characters that actually came true?

 

[Deoxys911]

This will be just like good ol' times. just hopefully without the toxicity
Though I think it's more of a waiting game until new pics show up.

It's funny, everyone seems to always reflect on the old leaks thread as being "cancerous" and such, but I don't recall much of any toxicity, myself. I don't even recall that much heated debate between users over the veracity of any leaks, at worst just stuff like "that leak's too good to be true, don't get your hopes up." Anyone care to help me understand what was so bad about it while we look forward to the next leak?

 

[Misery Brick]

Oh God. Imagine what this leaker can do.

The power...the raw....awesome....POWER...

Assuming the dude is willing to risk more info and didn't already get caught by Nintendo.
Like if I'm correct, there should be very few people that'd have access to the debug menu.
Right?

 

[The_Naraotor]

I'm team real but with extra gain of salt lol

 

[NintenRob]

So has anything else been floating around besides Ken leak (personally 50/50 on it, it's really good but that Pichu stuff up I just don't see ever being part of the build)

 

[THE 6r]

Wow, for the first time since the ESRB leak, I genuinely believe that a leak is 100% real. I wonder how long it will take the Nintendo Ninjas to smite this guy.
