For the life of me I can’t imagine why people are still giving Sabi the time of day.

She hasn’t had anything right that wasn’t a piggyback since E3 when she got access to press material.

I don't like her either, but Vergeben trusts her, which makes things complicated.

Vergeben hasn’t got squat right since DLC started either though. “Oh Terry’s in” yeah the mascot of SNK is in after the SNK copyright leaked, real bold guess.

Every Thomas the Tank Engine episode in a nutshell step by step:
1. Very important special.
2. Train messes up and crashes.
3. Scolded by fat man.
4. Gets special on time and is useful.

Sodor properly has the worst railway ever.

You say that but this place was tearing itself apart, and the only reason Terry was given leeway was because Verg.

"Oh it Kyo for KoF!"

"Oh, Nakoruru like the leak says."

"Metal Slug, please?"

I mean, you both are technically right tbh. He leaked Terry, but that wasn't until Nintendo leaked the fact that SNK was in Smash, and he didn't say anything of Plant, and he was flat out wrong on Joker.

He's trustworthy, but lets not say his track record on DLC has been 100% correct.

That's a fair assestment.

However, I feel like him saying who isn't in is very damaging to his cred if he gets it wrong.

I can’t take Vergeben seriously when he’s saying nonsense like “my source says there will not be a Nippon Ichi character.” It’s like saying Bubsy won’t be in Smash.

I mean, the dude was asked by a Twitter account called Prinny4Smash.


Your source doesn't have to say "It's not Nippon Ichi" when you know the name and can just say "It's not Nippon Ichi "

I don’t take what anyone says online seriously, there’s some characters in this game that no one could have predicted.

As we inch closer to the game awards by the day and a possible VGA reveal, anything can happen at this point.

I wish that's how things worked,

But it's just not.


Even the Piranha Plant was leaked.

There are people who know definitively who character 5 is but won’t say because Smash fans treat insiders like garbage.

Imran knew about Terry for a while but didn’t say anything because the Grinch Leak made him the epicenter of a ****storm.

Oh yeah, even though Vergeben didn’t say Piranha Plant someone else did.

I think someone may have predicted Richter too, not sure who it was though.

I remember back then we didn’t see characters like Mr. Game & Watch and R.O.B. coming. These times were pretty fun in that regard.

The mountains of leaks today have gotten a little out of hand.

No one should listen to any leaker unquestionably.

However, if someone has proven sources, completely writing them off is acting a tad bit too hasty. Nothing in speculation is a "lock", all these insiders add is a direction for our speculation to take and help us try to come to a conclusion.

Some people get too worked up over arguing about leakers. Choose whether or not you want to listen to them, it's as simple as that. We won't know for sure until the actual reveal anyways.

It was a 4chan post who described the character pretty much perfectly.


I recall it being a random 4chan post unrelated to the PP one.
There was also a Reddit post that went super in depth on Plant, incineroar and several Assist Trophies we hadn't seen yet.

Nobody reliably leaked any of the Echo Fighters in the August Direct, or K. Rool.

No one said it, you mean.

I can without a shadow of a doubt confirm that there were people on this very site that knew the full roster as early as late July.

I just found out that my Wal Mart did in fact have D3EC and it was on sale. But someone else got it while I was at work.
**** it, I'm just gonna buy it. I'm done.

Yes...”leaked” is a verb, an action those people did not do.

Anyone could've called K. Rool though, he was a relatively safe fan pick IMO.
I mean yeah but even after Ridley got in you had a fair share of people thinking he was unlikely, mostly in denial.

Some on this site.

Some in this thread!

I used to be a skinny twig and now I’m a more healthy weight, but it just feels like I’m fat :143:
oh boo hoo, Imagine bring 4 foot nothing and 170-180 pounds like I am then you can say you are fat because that isnt the range Im supoosed to be at at all and I cant lost the pounds no matter what I do
