While I don’t think it would happen, I’ve been having fun thinking about what Alex would be like if he were a playable character. Seeing as how we don’t really know how he fights. He’s primarily a schemer, plotting and toying with the protagonists as well as the antagonists, but despite this we know he’s an extremely gifted and powerful Mercury Adept. So, let’s have fun with this for a moment. Do you think he’s use Psynergies we’ve already been accustomed to, or would he be different, using more abstract forms of Psynergy?
Alex's battle party portrait was actually in one of the GS games alongside all the other party members we know and love. And it is a unique portrait separate from the one you first see. Unfortunately we never got to use him, so we don't know what psynergy he comes with. I only say this because it seems that each adept comes with a somewhat unique set of psynergy series to their name that differentiates them from others. For instance, Garet and Jenna have different things from each other - Jenna has the flame serpent attacks and the laser beam ones. It's not always exclusive as I recollect that Sheba and Ivan's pysnergies are basically copies.

So I guess we could infer two things - Alex has his own unique series, or he just shares most of it anyway. The Mercury adepts don't actually have as many attack psynergy as some of the others do, and seeing as he comes from the same clan as Mia is from, he probably does a lot of the same stuff as she does. Supercool, Ice, Glacier, etc. The only things we see him actually do anything is making a water pillar come from the ground to launch a guard from Lavilero in front of the Venus Lighthouse sky-high in the beginning of TLA. He also heals Felix and co. and then Karst/Agatio in the Jupiter Lighthouse so you can assume he either has the Ply/Wish series or something similar. I actually love his promotional artwork though where he has a sheath of water surrounding him. I always imagined him using his powers as a water jet to attack but spreading out some water to defend as a shield. If he had a character in smash, an up-smash or up-special could have that water pillar (similar to squirtle actually), instead of his normal shield he could use a barrier of water and maybe cast a pillar of ice as a down smash. As a final smash, imagine Alex lighting all four beacons in an animation simultaneously summoning the Golden Sun which just decimates everyone on screen, Alex wildly laughing the entire time. They really need to continue with his character arc.

It's just the demo build. Don't get your hopes up, guys. I doubt there will be anything important discovered.

Regardless of build, I am interested in the information inside just for technical amusement.

That guy is toast. Dropping hints about how he got hold of the demo and using his main account for all this. May not even get to the dataminers before the ninjas get him.

Look, worst case
We start getting our campaign ready for DLC!

I don’t know, I still have low hope for issac. I can’t let smash ultimate hurt me like smash 4 did.

I want to be proven wrong.

At best we'll get few hints like music tracks, no way Nintendo would let such sensible datas slip out.

Frankly, I enjoy hype, however, after waiting all these years, I just want a yes or no for Isaac.
I feel like maybe the Isaac community feels the same way

Well they struck hard with the esrb leak, but the internet being the internet, it was too late.

However the original source of the videos all got removed, which sealed the deal in a lot of peoples' eyes. So now you see leakers removing their own leaks to make it seem like the ninjas got to them. They ain't do that before. :p

Sounds like a hilariously roundabout way to get attention.

This episode isn't going to get any more interesting if the guy keeps dodging requests to get it datamined.

Yeah... but I dunno, I think Banjo would be better as the last character, since he is a third AND a new IP, together with the fact he will open the gates of hell
Wait he will let in doom marine?!...awesome. seriously though hearing his main theme remixed in smash would be awesome. Character or not.

Tell me this would not be awesome to fight to in smash.

I'm not really sure how much info is contained in that build. He claims that K. Rool is not a select-able character because it's the E3 demo build. Though I don't know if that means K. Rool data isn't in there whatsoever or is in game code that is just locked and hidden. I would think after ESRB leak, Sakurai and team isn't going to treat demos that go out the same anymore.

Sakurai and his team aren't inexperienced newcomers to Nintendo and leaks. So obviously they'll have the demos as limited as possible.
