I put her as the least likely of the possible 2nd representatives for the Mother series. If Lucas does indeed have a unique moveset, then I say Ness is more likely to return as the second Mother representative than her. However, if Sakurai is only interested in placing in Mother 3 characters and Lucas does not have Ness's moveset, then Kumatora is going to be the 2nd Mother character. Please read the rest of my Mother series analysis to understand where I am coming from.
Sadly, I think Krystal is going to be playable, and that she is going to be in before Falco or Wolf. If there is a third slot for a Star Fox character, I think Falco is going to take it. The Star Fox series is definitely not deserving of four slots in Brawl, and if it were up to me I would have Fox, Falco, and Wolf.
If Ness doesn't return CLAUS will be the 2nd Mother rep, what are you talking about? I'm just saying that Kumatora doesn't deserve that much credit, she is not that important to be in Brawl just like Paula wasn't that important to be in Melee, Kuma is most definitely going to be an AT or Trophy.
Uh, didn't you read my analysis. I said that if Lucas has Ness's moveset, the Masked Boy would be unchallenged for the second playable Mother spot.
I don't see why if Lucas has Ness's moves Claus would be unchallenged to be the second Mother 3 rep.
We are not sure what Rope Snake is yet. He could be an item, or one of Lucas's special moves or throw (like Samus's grapple beam or Link's clawshot). I don't want to rule out any possibilties, and I am sorry if you are feeling anxiety toward my character choices.
I'm not feeling anxiety I'm just intrigued that you think Kumatora has an outstanding chance of being the second rep from Mother 3 over Claus.
If Lucas has a unique moveset.
At least put Claus above her, even if Lucas has Ness's moves (Which I doubt), Kumatora doesn't have much chance, Kumatora and Duster were both on the poll, I don't see why you don't have Duster up there too.
I just don't like the idea of Sakurai throwing away a perfectly good moveset (such as Ness's). So that is the reason why Kumatora is a possibilty. However, Ness is the most likely one to re-claim it if Lucas does have his own moves. Also, I don't think Mother is a series that would warrant three representatives in this game, so if Ness does return, don't expect Masked Boy to be playable.
I thought we were talking about Ness not returning context? Seriously if Ness doesn't return Claus will be the Mother rep, plus who wants Kumatora having all of Ness's B moves anyway? semi clone of Ness just because Ness isn't in the game? That sucks!
And the award for blind-fanboy of the year goes to Matthewmilad. Congradulations on your under-acheivement.
What makes you think that Micaiah is more likely than anyone else from Fire Emblem, the fact that she has another X chromosome? I think it would be a shame if Tellius got two out of the three Fire Emblem spots. I think Sigurd would be the best considering that it would increase interest in the Jugdral Fire Emblems and would increase Leaf's chances for SSB4. Also, I am not saying that Micaiah is unlikely, all I am saying that she is not in a league above the other Fire Emblem characters that I mentioned. It all depends on what Sakurai wants.
Because of the reasons you stated:
Ike is promoting Radiant Dawn, a person who is localizing the game for North America confirmed that in an interview. Also, there are many lords who don't use swords. Ephraim, Hector, Eliwood (when he promotes), Sigurd (though he typically seen in artwork as using Tyrfing which is sword), and Leaf (who can use every weapon in the game). Also, I hate the idea that being female automatically makes you better than more worthy chararcters in the same franchise. My bet is that if Micaiah is not a playable character in Brawl, her fanbase will whither away and will probably rally around Sheeda (who is going to be in FE11, and made to be more attractive). Lastly, Marth will be the most recent lord, going by Sakurai's rules (he considered Roy the most recent lord, depsite his game not coming out until four months after Melee's release).
Then why, pray-tell, did they use the FE9 model?
Because it was the better of the designs
They aren't probably to assume though, so why should they be added to the list?
Opinion...
Yes it's opinion...and apparently whoever picked which design he used had that opinion
I'm just saying that it's a possiblity considering we have the entire starting roster line-up from the past two games already confirmed (12), so it would make sense to confirm 12 newcomers to balance everything out.
You are either:
