SmashBoards Roster Evolution (11-1, break)

[SmasherMaster]

Voted for GolderIcarus. Doesn't have either Ness or Lucas (or Ninten, but nobody had him) while also having the inclusion of Sonic. I feel it is too early for third arty characters.

 

[pupNapoleon]

I honestly feel the same guest continues to vote for me.

I relate

Anywho, I voted for Domoki, because I feel the representation of the series is very askew, and that there is not much in the way of Nintendo All-star material from what is there; ultimately the characters that overall seem too similar and with the most far reaching move set potential (which would be fine with other more traditional characters in game, but Villager + Captain Falcon + Mach Rider, etc, is a bit much for me).

 

[Bedoop]

I've noticed that alot of people vote for the ones who added unique ideas/third parties, saying that it's "Too Early" for such things.
But honestly, it's the THIRD ROUND. Is adding ONE Third-Party "Too Early"?
As for Unique Combinations, you try and get the popular series well-represented, while being limited to just 12 characters only, with future "locks" being applied. It ain't easy.
But I got eliminated from Round 2 (Apparently because Mega Man is a big no-no, so is King K. Rool apparently) so I'm rambling.
Carry on.

Well, the reason that is the case is because standing out is a bad thing when we are not voting for our favorites as well.
That is just the nature of how the voting works when only voting for negative outliers, numerically. Half of the voters could think that your unique roster is incredible ingenuitive and would be fun to play. Their votes are likely split among person A, B, C, D, and E. Yet the three people who only want the traditional roster with the slightest amount of a tweak will all hone in on the same difference, and vote for you, making you lose.

Perhaps a vote for immunity as well? Add in the strategy to potentially go for risk taking in the roster by possibly gaining immunity with the most votes.

I think it is too early considering Brawl (with 35 characters) was when we finally got 3rd parties. There are certain characters that should be in before any guests should be allowed.

 

[SmasherMaster]

When does the next round start?

 

[pupNapoleon]

Sometime today!
Unless this round continues for two more days.
And then more days still if we get another character.

Or a few days more if California splits into six states.
One for each big antagonist.

 

[TORNADO BUS DRIVER]

shall vote LumaOkami, sorry :/

 

[Natz~]

been a couple of days and i'm already being voted off?!?
anyway voted for The_Sheik because I see no reason the chorus men should be there, at all

I hope it doesn't start soon.......

Just because it seems you're a K-On fan I hope you stay!

 

[pupNapoleon]

If we get a character reveal first, then you may be in luck @ Natz~
San Diego (Comic Con) may save your life!

And thusly,

Sometime today!
Or a few days more if California splits into six states.
One for each big antagonist.

becomes a relevant post!

They call me Shulk- cuz I make you.... Wulk?!

 

[LoneKonWolf]

well I did say that this games updates are going to be odd in the beginning didn't I?

(and music's back, thought this would be the most appropriate for it)​

todays loser was @ Natz~ , next time if you want to stay in an competition, actually show up to it
anyway time to finish the rules so we can go back to the regular game
No veterans (i.e. any character from 64, melee, and brawl) that wasn't on your previous roster can't be added.
after that we'll go back some normal rounds for awhile
24 slots and the regular 2 cuts, good luck

[SunnyDust]

Added Ridley, Isaac, Chibi-Robo and Dillon!
Total Series : 19

 

[Mr_Anderson]

Welp, here we go.

Added:
Takamaru: Retro rep
Saki: N64 rep
Chibi-Robo: GC rep
Shulk: Wii rep

Honorable Mentions: Andy, Ridley, Dillon

20 Series represented overall.

 

[Yams]

I have a wicked feeling I'm getting eliminated next :')

I went a bit more obscure this round, but not too much so.
Additions: Chibi-Robo, Karate Joe, Inkling, Andy.

 

[TORNADO BUS DRIVER]

There, made some strange choices
Added:
Ashley
Anna
Isaac
Chibi-Robo

 

[kylexv]

Added:

Villager (All according to plan....)
Wii Fit Trainer
Isaac
Chibi-Robo (For the release of SSF2 v0.9b)

 

[Bedoop]

SO MUCH CHIBI-ROBO. ^-^
*claps*

 

[The Light Music Club]

Avoided Chibi-Robo because I wanted one character nobody had. This time, it's Lip.

Added: Lip, Duck Hunt Dog, Isaac, and Shulk
Series: Mario, Donkey Kong, Yoshi, Wario, Star Fox, Kid Icarus, Legend of Zelda, Kirby, Fire Emblem, Metriod, Advance Wars, Pikmin, Pokemon, Punch Out!, Game and Watch, Panel De Pon, Duck Hunt, Gyromite, Golden Sun, Xenoblade)
Series Total: 20

 

[pupNapoleon]

Well, I was going to be adding Lip, so if that means you need a unique character....

 

[The Light Music Club]

Well, I was going to be adding Lip, so if that means you need a unique character....

Last time someone added Andy after I posted! This time someone takes Lip away from me. Whatever, looks like I have to add Donbe and Hikari soon like last game.

 

[Angelglory]

Newcomers: Villager, Wii Fit Trainer, Chibi Robo, Shulk
New Series: Animal Crossing, Wii Fit, Chibi Robo, Xenoblade
Total Series: 22

 

[Golden Icarus]

Added Balloon Fighter, Rhythm Team, Dillon, and Cap. Toad.
I'm still only adding characters from unique franchises, at least until the "no veterans" rule is lifted.

 

[pupNapoleon]

Last time someone added Andy after I posted! This time someone takes Lip away from me. Whatever, looks like I have to add Donbe and Hikari soon like last game.

Yeah, I think you will safely alone in adding them.

 

[a smart guy]

Added:
Shulk: Most likely newcomer.
Andy: A fun wildcard.
Chibi-Robo: My most wanted newcomer who is getting a lot of love right now. Yay!
Mii: Repping the most sold game of all time, Mii with his Wii Sports moveset decides to battle.

 

[Tepig2000]

Added Toad, Ridley, Dillon and Little Mac.

 

[pupNapoleon]

ADDITIONS

• Andy form Wars Series: A series with an insane amount of games which seems to constantly be overlooked, even though the moveset potential seems to be overwhelming
• Lip from Panel de Pon: To fill the voids of female protagonist, adorable characters, magic based characters, older fan favorites, and Japanese based characters
• Chibi-Robo from Chibi-Robo! because size does not matter, Smash Flash seems to have inspired many, I love Robots, and aesthetically his image fits with always adding one non-human (visual non human, let's not get technical).
• Wonder Red from The Wonderful 101 to get some superheroes from a newer series into the mix, and no one could honestly say that he would not be insanely fun to play as.

I think my roster as a whole would actually be amazingly delightful to play as, all the characters are such interesting IPs with such unique gameplay elements to offer. This game is starting to bum me out-- there is no way that Chibi, Isaac, Duck Hunt Dog, Andy, Lip, and promoted Wonder Red and Dillon could all be in

 

[The_Sheik]

Little Mac Punches In!
Andy Rides In!
Inkling Squids In!
Ballon Fighter Floas In!

 

[SmasherMaster]

Can somebody do my roster this round? My laptop needs to get repaired. Add Chibi Robo, Marshall, Andy and Shulk.

The order

Mario-Link-Kirby-Pikachu-Game and Watch
Bowser-Ganon-Dedede-Pokemon Trainer-Captain Falcon
Donkey Kong-Samus-Villager-Marth-Fox
Yoshi-Pit-Olimar-Ness-Marshall
ROB-Andy-Chibi Robo-Shulk-Random

[SmasherMaster]

Thanks!

Edit: I just realized that I forgot Little Mac. So I borrowed my friends computer to do this.

 

[TheZombiePig]

Added:
King K. Rool & Ridley: Adding these two characters gives Nintendo's top franchises their protagonists and antagonists. I also feel it makes a good sense of balance between villains and heroes.
Mach Rider: A neat retro character.
Dillon: A neat new character.

 

[domokl]

added isaac k rool ridley and dillion

 

[BlueDrago]

super late with this...

New Characters: Little Mac, Takamaru, Pac-Man, and Mii Fighters.

inb4 your voted off because it's "Too Early" to add 3rd Parties.

inb4 your voted off because it's "Too Early" to add 3rd Parties.

Luigi is more important than Pac Man to Nintendo. So are other characters, that's why they usually get voted off first.

 

[YoshiandToad]

Actually don't have the time to draw everyone this round(two days during comic-con? Not happening), so I guess I'll have to do a traditional roster;

THE SHAME.

Captain Toad repping more Mario Spinoff action(Mostly Captain Toad Treasure Tracker and Wario's Woods). Plus it was inevitable for me.
Inkling for a new exciting series character.
Shulk is fairly obvious.
Duck Hunt is my favourite retro game...also he adds some much needed villain representation.

Honourable mentions: Fox(who I still can't add dang it all), Ness(likewise), Bowser(likewise), Peach(again), Zelda(once more) and Doshin the Giant(maybe too obscure).

I think from now on I'll have to merely draw the newcomers. Sad really but I don't have time to draw 20+ characters in two days.

(If I make it through this round I will however draw the newcomers I added this round. Feel it's only fair they get one pic.)

 

[LoneKonWolf]

(continuing threads)​

huh, surprised that I didn't have to hold for an day, oh well same as always vote once for the person you want to eliminate and explain why

The Elimination will end Monday around 11 PM Eastern​

 

[kylexv]

Voted a smart guy for having Lucina over Robin or another FE character and for having Miis, as they seem like a boring choice compared to the likes of Isaac or Ray.

 

[SmasherMaster]

This round I decided that I would vote for a roster that does not include the Villager. Surprisingly, five different rosters did not have him. The Light Music Club, a smart guy, Tepig2000, The_Sheik and BlueDrago were my choices.

I'll figure out which of the five I vote for tomorrow.
