I have no problem with swords, but why can't we get someone who uses a scythe instead, which is objectively the coolest melee weapon?

I'm pretty sure it's people who main any swordies because they keep getting yelled at and made fun of by babies
I legit beat someone on Discord using Lucina and he told me to use a more fair character so I beat him with Wolf

The kicker? He was using Simon and had no gameplan other then Holy Water, Cross, Axe on repeat.

Claws are cool too.

And I refer to the Wolverine or Baraka kind of claws, not the K.Rool or Charizard ones.

Funny thing is Wolf has better tournament results than Lucina so far iirc.

I can't wait for Pokémon Chair, Table and Desk to be revealed as the next titles.

Pretty much. In fact, he's trailing so far ahead of everybody else. I think Snake is close, but in placement, not results.

When I play as Simon, I like to use at least one time in the whole match the thing were you do tricks with the whip by holding a buttom to make a combo on the opponent.

Wolf definitely counts for this, especially in Ultimate where it's more pronounced. It makes him incredibly fun to play IMO.

Man I hope Wolf never leaves after this game. Ultimate made me remember how fun he was.

There’s a huge number of Spirits in the game; what was the selection process like?

Sakurai: I basically checked over what the Spirits team had picked and added/removed characters accordingly. Each characters’ ease of use and whether or not we had their original art also played a part to a degree. There were some characters that were candidates for Spirits that we ended up having to pass on just because we couldn’t find the artwork.

That really would have an effect on things, wouldn’t it?

Sakurai: Aside from that, there were quite a few characters from “Kid Icarus: Uprising”, so I had the team trim a few of them off. It’s a title I’m pretty intimately familiar with (laughs), and knowing the characters individually allowed me to clearly see any benefits of having them in the game as Spirits.
It’s still great to know Sakurai loves his Kid Icarus Uprising even without a sequel/hd remake possible for him

So...he was correctly playing a Belmont

You say that as if we’d never see it coming...Wolf is the Ultimate Doggo (canine...but Doggo works better)
Isabelle does not deserve this kind of treatment from you guys.
Isabelle is a murderer...and of course that Pit/Palutena comic is one of the recommended videos
Honestly the rest of the fighter pass should just be CastleVania characters, give us Shanoa, Soma, Sypha and Charlotte
I wouldn’t like that at all

Funny thing is, while the scythe is a super popular weapon, there are next to no protagonists that use it.

The only one I can think of is Death and even then, they're more dual blades that transform into a big scythe ocassionally.

Don't worry, he's a lock. They'll just cut R.O.B., Lucario and Ike.

Same.
I love villains to death, and I bought full games just to play as some (the PS2 game based on the first Spider-Man movie is a good example, since I bought it just to play as the Green Goblin).

Ruby Rose?

And understandable, it's not a heroic weapon by any means. Actually, it's not even a real weapon by design, it's a farming tool.

Doesn’t Ragna’s blade transform into a scythe?
Well yeah, but that too is just a normal sword most of the time
Ruby Rose?

I was talking about game characters. If we're talking about shows, then biggest scythe user I know of is Maka from soul eater.

Well it doesn't matter what you like, CastleVania is good
