Like, that's the thing.


We got a glock.


Suddenly the Super Shotgun and BFG don't even look that absurd to be in Smash.


If violence is your issue with Doomguy, then you need to take it up with the "RIP AND TEAR" aspect, which can easily be toned down.
Yeah. DoomSlayer seams really likely to me now. Maybe not for the first pass, but if we get a second, you bet your ass!

Here's the thing, a lot of people in here are expecting Banjo over Steve as of now, because some Microsoft employees claimed that Steve is not in.
Right, but people are still expecting Steve, and others expecting Banjo doesn't detract from that. And if Steve's been shot down by Microsoft, then that's no skin off my back because I don't want that character.

What it does detract from is people forgetting the superior choice that is Fulgore.

He's ready.

And if your issue with Scorpion is violence then I'd like to point you to Injustice.

There's arguments against the both of them sure, but they either boil down to "too violent" or "western made". Which, by the looks of it, Western made is about to be broken by none other than the big M themselves.

Y'know, I sorta gave it a bit more thought. Nintendo just straight up shadowdropping Joker and the Ver 3.0.0. update out of nowhere with the video and all is starting to make me think that the way of Directs will be shifted a bit slightly.

We've been seeing Nintendo announce stuff more and more lately that you'd think would be a part of a Direct, but nope, is now out in the open. With a new NOA president, I don't have too much to ask for from Doug, and maybe I'm starting to get a bit sick and tired of Directs, but...

If we can get the return of live conferences from Nintendo, then God, will the reveals be THAT more impactful. They did it in 2017, there's no reason not to, really.

Personally, I'm still sold on us getting a character from Capcom, Namco and Square to finish off the missing Mii Outfits, so while I'd like Doom Slayer, I don't 'expect' him over this supposed Microsoft rep.


But I'd really like these dumb community rules to die now that Ultimate: Exists

Lol, but you just brought up a rule in the process of saying you want the rules to be broken. :laugh:

I don't put any stock in the Mii Costume thing honestly. I feel like Mii Costumes are about to get a whole lot more commonly dropped after 3.0. Just as little extras.

I'd honestly love that, though I can't shake the feeling.:dr^_^:

I wish they would just reveal Erdrick already. Stop denying it Nintendo we know he's gonna be the next revealed alongside the other DLC character at E3 were not stupid...

Honestly should had just revealed him during Joker's gameplay reveal...

The Virgin Scorpion
- Violence created the ESRB
- Slow, clunky combat
- Created by a dead company
- Hated by soccer moms across the globe
- Japan hates him
- Some sympathetic loser on a revenge quest
- Rival is a color palette swap just as lame as him

The Chad Fulgore
- Has the same amount of violence; revered as a classic
- Innovated combo-based fighting games
- Created by based Rareware
- Appeals to moms for being a cool robot
- Japan loves him
- Just a robot here to **** your **** up
- Rival is a smoking-hot chick and her tibet monk brother

Or they could just... release a tonne of Mii Fighter costumes from multiple companies. They did it in Smash 4. What’s to stop it from happening again.

I still think we’re getting a Namco and Square Character, but I would hold your breath on a FOURTH Capcom Rep.

I hate how Smash speculation only functions in extremes. "This character is a lock", "this character is impossible", "this character is never going to happen". People are far too confident in themselves.

Something can hurt a character's chances without completely destroying them. Something can make a character more likely without guaranteeing them.

I think we should use words like "impossible" for only extreme occasions, like Shrek or whatever. I think a Mortal Combat character is very unlikely but they're still major game icons with a couple things going for them so we can't rule out the possibility entirely, even if they arguably have more going against them.

Perfectly fitting of someone with so little character. He gets to be a cardboard shell on top of a dime store mannequin.
Damn, little missy. Why don't you tell us how ya really feel?

FINALLY!
I hear people say "Steve is not in" because of the whole Banjo thing, but Steve has a fighting chance.
