Watch fighter pass 2 be like, an exact mirror of fp1

Leon S. Kennedy
Lloyd Irving
Geno
Sol Badguy
???

Just because it can doesn’t mean it will. Murphy’s Law isn’t a constant.
How does Leon mirror Joker, I see what you mean with others genre wise and Geno being a fan request.

We live in a timeline where the best DLC song in Ultimate is named "Pasta".
Arashi no Saxophone says otherwise.

No female alt. Yep. I'm not even going to bother using Terry now. I wish they revealed the Geno Mii costume so that people would stop thinking he still has a chance to be playable in this game despite already being a spirit.
****ing wow. Ive never seen someone this motivated by their **** to pass up an amazing character just because there is no chick alt

By the way I think it's safe to say the last FP character is a Namco character. All the Namco costumes are the only ones that haven't been added (other than Geno and Chocobo). Gonna give the edge to Lloyd as far as speculation goes.

The Chocobo and Mallow costumes will be added with Geno, mark my words
We don't even have a swordie in the FP yet, maybe Lloyd is our swordie?

I don’t have access to my Switch rn so can someone tell me if Arashi no Saxophone made the cut?

Them's some tasty K. Rool buffs. Is nair safe on shield now? I know the landing lag is near nonexistent now.

Yes. It's called Stormy Saxophone.

Someone made a pic that has all of the SwSh Pokemon, including New Pokemon, in it. Nice to have for team building.

Leon is a quick stylish Gun wielding character from a company with two characters already in the game.
I feel like Lloyd will A. satisfy more fan requests and B. provide a more unique moveset potential for Sakurai to play around with (especially after he said they tried for Heihachi in Smash 4 but couldn't do it.)
Fair. Honestly, I think they’re both likely tbh. I just like Tekken more.

Plus, I know it doesn’t matter, but I’ll roll my eyes if we get a third JRPG Character.

Still hoping Tracer makes it, even though it's not likely.

She's been my favorite Overwatch character for a while and has become one of my favorite game characters in general.

These feel like very superficial qualities. Persona and RE aren't alike at all.

Not to mention Joker is a very recent character while Leon is a Gamecube darling.

Can't believe you'd just put down Beneath the Mask like that smh
Believe me when I say it was for a joke.

Since Tales of is an Action RPG that blends both Fighting Game and RPG mechanics together. The Tales rep could be considered both a Fighting game and RPG rep.

Just because they're from a JRPG doesn't mean they'd play anything alike...

Ok. So let’s break this down.

The remaining Mii Fighter costumes left from 4 are as follows
  1. X
  2. MegaMan.EXE
  3. Heihachi
  4. Lloyd
  5. Monster Hunter
  6. Rathalos Hunter
  7. Chocobo Hat
  8. Geno
  9. Gil

Based on this, I can make a few predictions.

Lloyd or Heihachi will come with whichever of the two doesn’t get the upgrade. Gil will release in the same wave.

The Monster Hunter and Mega Man costumes will probably come with a Capcom character post pass. Most likely from resident evil. Hopefully we also get a Dante costume.

The Chocobo hat will come with Geno when he releases along side the leaked Mallow costume.

Ok then. Who would you put in that spot then?

I know. I know. It’s just my own personal hang ups.

I just realized the Ken leak’s image from last October or so had to be older than last year’s E3 direct based on the Pichu model, unless they kept running with the same build for testing instead of an updated one for some reason (I would think it’d make more sense to keep test builds updated), but even then, proof that things can have a lot of stuff done far from their release.
2018 smash ultimate was also a much larger development team and Q&A department, though, so a small image leak here or there was to be expected somewhere along the line

however, for not only pictures but an actual video to somehow leak out of the downsized smash development team, let alone a video recorded while two other people were apparently playing alongside the leaker, is incredibly bizarre

Also, for anyone who wants to play a KOF or FF game, Burn Knuckle is QCB Punch in those titles and not QCF Punch like in Smash. QCF is usually Power Wave's input.

Leaking Smash Bros is an inside job?

I still think that the possibility of the leak being fake is still strong

More so after Sakurai's comments on adult characters (doh it isn't a full deconfirm).

Discretion is really necessary with this leak.

Honestly? 2B.

Recent character, flashy moveset potential, coming from a long-running series that became mainstream with the latest title.

I can see her blindsiding a lot of people and yet still being a hype pick.

It’s not the same thing. Not by a long shot.

I’m still on team real. It’s impossible to fake at the current moment.

Yeah, 2B would be cool too.

It also helps that both Square and Platinum are already on the Smash ship.

Where would Lara Croft fit in this mirror FP2?
No where really.

Honestly, I think she has a pretty good shot at this point. She’s pretty iconic.

Technically platinum aren’t. SEGA owns the IP and can do whatever they want with it if platinum drops it. They didn’t need to be on board for Bayo.

And honestly, they don’t need to be on board for 2B either. Square has complete control of the Nier IP as well.

I think 2B would be the only character I would even come close to disliking being in Smash, and that's solely because I hated every minute I played of Nier: Automata and I think Yoko Taro is a hack

I would be excited for a friend of mine, but if she fell to the wayside I would have no problem with it. I'd much rather Dante/Leon/Geno

It's by no means impossible to fake, but the only real argument against it is "Well it could just be a very good mod."
We're not gonna get closure on this until someone admits they did it, an insider/leaker says something definitive on it, or until it just resolves itself naturally through upcoming reveals.

Have you seen someone actually get a hat mod running in Ultimate that’s doesn’t bug the game up to high heaven?
