Yes, the Trophy Girls spirit was replaced by the Nitro Squad spirit. Cutting Spirits out is a practice I wish to avoid and, if I need to, try to make sensible cuts. That being said, and I will be addressing this on a later date as this weekend I am absolutely swamped, I will be slimming down our submitted Other spirits significantly. Several minor series that doesn’t have much representation on Nintendo systems will be removed which also includes most of the Spirits I submitted (Ark, Skullgirls, and Mischief Makers). I will also be slimming down other series that has a large amount of Spirits despite not having a representative playable character.
That being said, I intend to keep the data on the Spirit in case we decide to include them back in at a later date.
After we conclude our Spirit Theme Event featuring
The Fantasy Smasher
, I will be presenting a new way for us to submit Spirits that’s more fair I think, easier to submit, and also allows other series that don’t have new Spirits yet, like Star Fox and F-Zero, to get Spirits.
In the future, I will make a proper announcement to indicate which ones will be removed. I intend to try to limit the amount of Spirits that are removed and to be transparent to the reasons why I did.
