I still don't understand why Sakurai saw more potential in a fire-ey wrestler then a ghostly archer.
Because there was more potential for goofy wrestling poses with Incinemon, obviously (which is also the best part of the character btw).

Because it's a ****ing wrestler and we didn't have wrestlers in the game yet?

Wrestlers are badass.

Archer birb is totally getting its chance in Fighter Pass 2 so I'm not sure why this is even a discussion.

I mean, we already had several archers. No wrestlers though :drshrug:
We have several characters who use archery skills in their movesets, but they aren't specifically archers in the sense.

Which is something I would like in a future character, is to be a real archer, with archery being the primary source of damage, rather than relying on a sword or a bow that can turn into dual blades.

That’s perfectly understandable and I will it mock your opinion with a hilarious meme.

We could have gotten Claude.

My problem with that is would a primary bow user actually work well in Smash? You would just be shooting out arrows all willy-nilly.
This is kind of a problem I've also had with Edelgard, like has anyone made a viable moveset concept for her?

yes, one (or two in byleth's case) bow move totally makes them an archer

and by that logic, like mentioned above, somebody like Bowser would count as a wrestler due to his few grapple moves

Injustice, MvC, Persona and Killer Instinct are all able to do dedicated archers just fine though the latter two also have an extra bit to it (a Persona and a Drone) to spice them up a little.
The bow itself can be used for melee attacks and then there's multiple different arrow types as well as methods of shooting with them.

Calling those characters "archers" is a disservice to actual archers.

They use swords primarily. They just happen to also have a bow. That they only use in one attack. Also, see this post by Schnee.

What’s even the source for this? They say the rumor but there’s not a single link to a rumor that I can see here
It's right at the bottom
But it's a 4chan post full of wish fulfilment so lol

Still I’m putting my bet on Geno as challenger pack 7, on top of a potential Mario rpg remake or remaster based on all those other remasters coming this year.

My bets are on a Crash/Geno double reveal a E3. Or.... during the time E3 would have been I guess.

Remember, Crash is also super popular in japan despite being a western series. Which rarely happens.
