What if Joker is a Robin clone?
They'd need to give him a sword and an electrical sword, make him slow for no reason and take away his gun/athletic abilities. It doesn't make the slightest sense.

Though it's fun to imagine his specials: Zio/Zionga/Ziodyne/Thunder Reign, Agilao, Magaru, Life Leech

A random thought just hit me.. What if they did a Pokemon Conquest 2 but it was Romance of the Three Kingdoms (Dynasty Warriors) rather than Nobunaga's Ambition (Samurai Warriors)?

Edit: caught the typo.

Ok. People who know about Fire Emblem. If you had to pick 4 characters to add to the rider based solely on uniqueness, who would you choose. The only one I know is Medeus.
Hmm...

Black Knight
Hector
Ephraim

I'd say someone like Caeda or Camilla, but constant fliers would look super awkward. :laugh:

So I'll give a shout-out to Merric for Opossum Opossum .
"Isaac would have been an assist regardless of popularity"

Well, that's kind of a jerk move if true, Nintendo.

Let's say, hypothetically, that Isaac topped the Ballot: "Man, this character is really popular. Can't make him a fighter though, he doesn't have a recent game."

Leif from Thracia 776: He’s one of the only characters who can promote to Master Knight, which gives him a mount and allows him to use literally every weapon type except dark magic.

Cordelia/Whitewings: Cordelia is the most popular and the Whitewing sisters are iconic, Pegasus knights would wield lances and of course ride flying mounts. Disclaimer: I have no idea how to implement a Pegasus knight into Smash’s gameplay.

Any dedicated Mage: magic is rare in Smash and FE has plenty of things like anima magic (elemental), dark magic, and light magic that can be used in a moveset.

Takumi: I think archery is something that Smash has always had but never expanded upon past a neutral special, and Takumi is the most popular archer and capable of adding his own unique flair/powers to a moveset to make it interesting.

Just saw this
Hector: Big dude with axes
Black Knight: Huge dude with huge sword and blade beams
Lyn: Fast as ****, has katana and bow
Celica: Has powerful as **** magic but takes damage when using it

Medeus is a pretty meh choice. I'd argue he's actually awful.

I'll give ya some suggestions.

I'll assume that mounted characters are a no go due to design issues.

Hector is an armor and wields an axe.
Ephriam wields a spear.
Micaiah and Lilina could be full mages instead of Robin's Mage Knight.
Tiki transforms completely into a dragon.
Takumi could give you an archer based moveset, along with wind powers.
Jakob and Felicia and Kaze could give you a projectile based Ninja.
Black Knight is the only FE villain that should ever be considered and he has a huge sword and heavy ass armor.
While more minor, Panne, Keaton, Kaden, Lethe, etc could all be beast characters who fight like were wolves
Ultra minor but Fates has a ton of strange classes, like the mechanist where you can create a copy of yourself.

Lots of stuff.

Dang, I forgot to rep Lyn in my four.

Too focused on "too many Swordies", I guess.

You can elaborate a bit on Hector; his signature weapon, Armads, is a lightning axe.

Lyn would be great if she was super agile and her attacks kept her constantly moving around, it would make her really different from the other sword users, hell, it would make her different from all the other characters.

Cordelia/Whitewings, one of the Valentia villagers, Jedah, and a Manakete.

All 4 would be pretty unique
Gonna elaborate on these:

Cordelia/Whitewings: We don't have a mounted fighter, and a Pegasus would solve the issue of recovery. Cordelia is probably the most popular one, but the Whitewings are the most recurring.

Valentian Villagers: Class Change system. I don't know how it would work, but it would be very unique.

Jedah: A dark magic using villian who can summon monsters, in addition to his other magic. Very unique.

Manakete: Transforming into a dragon is cool.

You really think they couldn’t make a cool moveset out of an Earth Dragon Warlock? He’s the villain of the first Fire Emblem for pete’s sake!

Other than sup ma ma 2 and that joker model tease (which is starting to becoming a meme) Can we all take a moment of scilence on how links awakening is getting remade and we’re getting another version of this beauty?...

This is by far a great instrumental remix

I’m getting this game

OH sure they could make a neat move set.

But nobody gives two ****s about Medeus.

Like for real, he's upstaged by Gharnef of all people, who people mistake for the villain of the first game.

I don’t care. This is the weird/obscure pick i back and I back it whole heartedly. Medeus is my Plant.

Well, personally I think if they had a flier it would have to be Caeda because she was the first.

You know Medeus isn't actually an earth bender right?


Like... Please, if you want a villain, go for Black Knight... He's the only villain to break the top 100 popular characters for Pete's sake.

In other words, you should know his place.

That makes sence. The only FE games I've played are FE Echoes and Awakening, so that's where my characters came from. I think Caeda with a Cordelia echo (or vice versa) would be best.

Medeus is just boring as hell. Gharnef is too though. Hardin though? We can talk about Hardin.

What does he do If he’s an earth dragon then?

Black Knight? Swordfighter. No.
He breathes fire and has dark magic. That's pretty much it.

It's like you read skimmed a wiki article but skipped the relevant parts.


As for the Swordfighter bit... Fine. Go for Gharnef. He's probably the next most notable villain. He's a pure dark Mage, which we don't have yet.

He uhhhh
He breathes earth fire

Also Black Knight has sword lasers and is a goddamn Knight
Well then Gannondorf/Ridley this mofo and make him an earthbender. That would be so coool. Like Tremor from Mortal Kombat.

You’ve yet to make Black Knight sound cool or unique. For heavens sake, people thought he would work as an Ike echo.

Then why is he an earth element character and not like... dark type or something?

EDIT: Just noticed I quoted this and then didn't say anything. WHOOPS.
I’m torn between Oboro and Nephenee as a spear/Naginata wielder.
Nino could work as a pure mage as well.
And I can’t really think of anything Arthur has over Hector right now.
Arthur has JUSTICE (and terrible luck)!

Medeus I think would be a fine character to implement. Shapeshifting is Corrin's niche, but the character does focus on different elements and attacks that Medeus could easily cover, with his Earth abilities being the big highlight of that. If they focused on that the character could easily stand out from Corrin, as well as the other dragons like Charizard or Ridley.

I do agree Black Knight would be a stronger addition if we're talking villains though, seeing him as an AT gave a real good taste for what the character could do in the game.
