You...
You do realise the missing spirit basically confirms it right?
No it doesnt. All it confirms is a lack of imagination on your part.
If you can only think of one reason a spirit is not in the game, you have not thought enough on it.

I stand alone, as the sole zombie in a midst of people who basically hunt zombies for a living.

Day 28: I don't think they've noticed yet.

They can add in more spirits later, I wouldn't be surprised if there was some MP4 promotional event planned before the development update came out that would have added sylux
They can add promotional Spirits on top of normal Spirits.

In fact, they have! The Lets Go Pikachu and Eevee Spirits came seperate from the normal Pikachu and Eevee Spirits.

If there was a promotional thing planned they'd have made a special MP4 Sylux spirit, not Just left the most important Hunter out while featuring Several others

I mean, would be a neat reference, but I highly doubt they'd go that deep for some code names nobody's meant to see in the first place.
objection:
Thanks to Teeb in the Joker thread we know that Arsene's model was codenamed "Doyle" - a reference to Sherlock Holmes author Sir Arthur Conan Doyle as well as a reference to Detective Conan who has a rival based on Arsene Lupin named Kaito Kid.

I truly don't know how this is a genuine argument anymore.

Might as well play along.

I can't believe that you people don't realise that everyone from the NES game Pro Wrestling is in, since they don't have spirits. :4pacman:

Real talk though, if they can add spirits at any time, they're being lazy about it, since they do spirit events all the time, yet those seldom add any new ones.

I guess it's possible, but I really wouldn't get your hopes up. The only thing Sylux had going for him was being a potential promotional pick for MP4, and that game isn't coming out anytime soon...

I mean, maybe Sylux will be in as a bonus promotional rep, but he definitely won't be in the Fighters Pass.

Sylux isn't going to elicit anywhere near as much positive press and hype as third party picks (i.e. Joker, Banjo & Kazooie/Steve, Erdrick) will.

I mean, I get that saying "He's in!" Is a bit much but you are all acting like his chances are laughable while there is a really strong case for him.

All DLC will be 3rd party.
Spirits deconfirm characters.

If you don't have a specific spirit board you can make entirely relating to your character, then they're not in.

jill in fanart: happy fun times
jill in re lore: literal living hell for every waking moment
Not EVERY waking moment.

She was living a pretty okay life there for a bit before the whole zombie thing.

Jack the Ripper is a persona, but agree in that its kinda obscure reference given that the other names. It's kind of funny whatever the names reason was chosen as they would make it a funny coincidence.

"while there is a really strong case for him."

Literally the only evidence you've provided is that he doesn't have a spirit. That's like building a house out of nothing but toothpicks and saying it has a strong foundation.

Since when was saying "that's not the right way to look at that characteristic" the equivalent to "Heh, this loser wants Sylux in the game. Not happening."?

You want to show us there's a strong case for him?

Then the burden of proof falls on you. Show us.

And it better be good. I don't want a repeat of Shiny's "Erdrick isn't confirmed" argument.

yeah except you're literally acting as if he's "basically confirmed"

his case is about as strong as "well he would be a neat promo rep"

Tbf there's a difference between 'call him doyle because arsene has met sherlock' and 'call them jack and jane cause jack the ripper's final victim was called jane'. What would even be the connection between Jack the Ripper and Joker? I guess Jane could be building off of Jack's unrelated codename, but feels like a stretch my man.

For the record, I think Sylux would be pretty cool and is probably a lock for the next smash game, but he's sort of missed his chance of getting into ultimate at this point.

You guys are all clearly just haters hating on Sylux because he's not Jill. That's obviously it. There's no other way. Yep.

Sylux isn't even the only Hunter missing, Rundas, Ghor, Spire, Noxus, and Weavil are also MIA as well. Sylux is not special in that regard and he shouldn't be treated as a sure thing when other characters share his fate.
