Damn bro...I didn't think Erdrick had a chance until Michael's woke self said he's in. Now I just...who else could it be? Amen.

On the contrary, Verg said it, which means it’s not happening

I just looked up some of the mortal kombat drama and came across the metacritic reviews and stuff

We really do be live in society it.

[NonSpecificGuy]

Huh, you are right. But that's what happens when the Wii U was hot garbage I guess.

Honestly can't believe that folks think we're only getting one character revealed at E3. Sounds insane to me. Biggest gaming event of the year, ideal time to sell the fighter's pass, yet leave most of the content hidden for nearly 10 months?

If we do get two then we're most certainly getting one released on the day of reveal and the other will come out down the road a couple months. I in no way see us getting two characters at thr same time. It's either 1 revealed soon, released at E3. One shown at E3, released at E3. Or Two shown at E3, one releasing at E3, and the other releasing around August.

That's my thought process.

 

[Michael the Spikester]

Even though before then Verge had been right on most of his predictions. I'd honestly keep watch on what he says.

 

[Luigi The President]

But TB it's Michael.

MICHAEL, TB. He's in.

 

[PsySmasher]

What did I tell y'all. Whatever comes out of Verge's mouth becomes true I knew it'd be Erdrick.

*Cough* February 2019 Direct *Cough*

No he hasn’t.
He’s almost never been correct.

 

[SneakyLink]

*Cough* February 2019 Direct *Cough*

Also DBFZ DLC.

I think...

 

[Swamp Sensei]

We all know the Xbox One X is more powerful than the PS4 Pro, but which console is better overall in terms of features, modes, etc?
I have the PS4 Pro, but I want to know your opinions.

The Game Boy Advance SP.

 

[Deleted member]

Hey. Hey faygoshill.

oh boy, do i have a deal for you

 

[Michael the Spikester]

Hmmm

He was right about Everyone being here. He was right about Snake returning. He was right about getting Simon and Richter. He was right about Ridley and Daisy. Oh and he was right about Ken and Incineroar.

 

[SuperSonicFlyer]

About Verge, he and his source isn’t just saying Erdrick is in to get on the Erdrick for Smash bandwagon or whatever, are they? I mean, Verge may have been right on most base game characters, but that doesn’t mean he’ll be right on DLC characters.

 

[Pyra]

Hmmm

He was right about Everyone being here. He was right about Snake returning. He was right about getting Simon and Richter. He was right about Ridley and Daisy. Oh and he was right about Ken and Incineroar.

None of those ended up being the case.
Quote me directly nerd

What did I tell y'all. Whatever comes out of Verge's mouth becomes true I knew it'd be Erdrick.

I'm gonna keep it real with ya, chief. If it took him five months to speak up, while other insiders who are more solid and credible than he is brought the thought up, it doesn't mean much.

Remember, this is the DLC phase we're talking about, and so far, Verge hasn't gotten any points yet. And honestly? Kinda sad how a pundit who works almost the same as Gaming INTEL started the Erdrick Train before he did. Saving face, is what I see in his statement.

he


he ****ing STARTED the erdrick trend, bro

 

[DaybreakHorizon]

Did y'all see this?

There was a problem fetching the tweet

Spoiler

Spoiler

 

[Deleted member]

*sigh* nah man I ain’t me right now. With the next character that’s most likely gonna be at e3 the whole wait is killing me and stressing as well plus a lot of steve posters are targeting me on Twitter And the whole speculation cycle is making me so moody

It's a game, don't take it very seriously. Just enjoy the ride, if twitter gets annoying have you considered dropping it for a couple of days?

Speculation becomes crap when it starts affecting your daily life.

I have the PS4 Pro, but I want to know your opinions.

I prefer Xbox over PS4. I don't like the PS4's UI or the structure of its home page. I've never liked the Dualshock controller, though the PS4's is finally tolerable (even if the battery sucks). I basically only own one to play the few PS4 exclusives I want and the Vita crossbuy games.

Xbox's Game Pass, Play Anywhere program, backwards compatibility with X360/Xbox games, modernized UI, XB1X HDR 4K features, second HDMI port for using my cablebox through One Guide, Kinect for voice commands and the fact that most of my friends are on Xbox all keep me pretty tied to the console. Plus the Elite controller is the best controller ever.

 

[TMNTSSB4]

Verge is back I assume

 

[Michael the Spikester]

I await what other things Verge will say.

Its yet again another era of VergeBen!

 

[Pyra]

And for the record, I also said Ridley was going to be in, and be the first character revealed after Inkling.

Doesn’t mean I’m some kind of magical leak nerd, and Ridley ended up being leakbait anyway

 

[SuperSonicFlyer]

he


he ****ing STARTED the erdrick trend, bro

Didn't realize it for a moment, but, eh, not surprised. Still, he can't be right on everything, and for all we know so far, he won't necessarily be right on DLC characters like he was with most base game characters. Or will he?

 

[Luigi The President]

I await what other things Verge will say.

Its yet again another era of VergeBen!

It really isn't though. His Smash credibility is still pretty messed up.

Don't even get me started on that.

I am so, so disappointed in everybody involved.

I can't even put into words how much I hate that this became a "controversy" or how much I hate the people that made it one.

 

[PsySmasher]

Hmmm

He was right about Everyone being here. He was right about Snake returning. He was right about getting Simon and Richter. He was right about Ridley and Daisy. Oh and he was right about Ken and Incineroar.

Can you remind me how many DLC characters he's gotten right up to this point?

Look I get why some of y'all are trusting of Verge, but as we know now DLC characters were chosen sometime in 2018, not the same time as base roster.

So don't just assume accurate base roster speculation = accurate DLC roster speculation

 

[SnakeFighter64]

I ****ing hate college. I hate it. I hate it with every fiber of my being. It’s nothing but a black hole that exists to do nothing but suck out all your happiness and all your money until you’re a broken husk.

I just failed a group project. I was unable to contribute much because they gave me the hardest question to answer for it that even they couldn’t come up with ways to tackle. So they told the professor. All that late night research is now doubbley fruitless because now I don’t even get any credit for it.

And after that, along with every other bull**** problem I’ve had with the end of this semester. All the over cramming to pass test, all the script writing. Taking tests early. Everything to have that happen I just broke down. I’m dealing with a work lode so light that most other students would wish for it, and I can’t take it to the point where what many students consider standard caused me to break down crying. Not only that, I hit myself. In the head. Hard. Repeatedly. First time I’ve done that sense I was very small. I’m just tired of it. I want it to stop. I want out of this system. But I can’t do that. I have to suffer through till the end so I can get my money’s worth and get a stupid piece of paper that everyone has just decided you need to be successful in life, pretty much just so that people can make money off of the process of getting it.

The professors aren’t helpful. They don’t want you to succeed, they want you to fail. Because the more you fail the more courses you have to take and the more money you pay the university. Not just on courses but on housing and meal plans too. It’s sick and disgusting.

My children will have a better life than this. They will not go into this abomination of an educational system unless it gets improved. Grade school was hell for me. And I thought it would get better in college. But no, it’s worse. The Fire is hotter and I’m isolated from my support system.

 

[Pyra]

I mean I guess, you can probably use the fact that he’s compulsively wrong about everything to speculate based around it

 

[Deleted member]

Verge is back? What'd he say?

 

[SuperSonicFlyer]

Wait, did Vergeben initially get Joker right?

 

[Michael the Spikester]

Verge is back? What'd he say?

That Erdrick is in as DLC.

 

[Luigi The President]

Wait, did Vergeben initially get Joker right?

No one did.

 

[BlueMonk]

Wait, did Vergeben initially get Joker right?

No, he didn't. In fact I believe he didn't think there would be a reveal at VGA at all.

 

[SuperSonicFlyer]

No one did.

Then he is wrong. We should all ignore him.

Note: The above was an exaggerated sarcasm, so if you believed I was serious, you were wrong to begin with.

Seriously, though, I wonder how confident he is with Erdrick?

 

[T3Z3R1]

That Erdrick is in as DLC.

oh come on

everyone and their mother have been speculating Erdrick as part of DLC and now you tell me Verge did confirm as part of fighter pass

 

[Deleted member]

That Erdrick is in as DLC.

Not particularly impressive when everyone's been saying that, but alright.

What happened to "People will lose their jobs if I talk" stuff? He was really adamant about that.

 

[Ura]

Erdrick being DLC is like the least shocking thing at this point. I don't know why this is a relevation for some.

 

[Deleted member]

Wait, did Vergeben initially get Joker right?

No, he was wrong and said that the Square rep would be at the VGAs, and I think Persona 5 ain't no Square game, last I checked.

Verge is back? What'd he say?

Essentially trying to save face since LeakyPandy beat him to the punch literal months before him and anyone.

I'm honestly surprised that Vergeben is even being brought up in the current state of Smash speculation.

 

[SuperSonicFlyer]

No, he was wrong and said that the Square rep would be at the VGAs, and I think Persona 5 ain't no Square game, last I checked.

I remember that. Thanks for reminding me. Given that Erdrick is a Square rep, I wonder if he meant Erdrick would be revealed at the VGAs when he thought that?

 

[Wyoming]

If we do get two then we're most certainly getting one released on the day of reveal and the other will come out down the road a couple months. I in no way see us getting two characters at thr same time. It's either 1 revealed soon, released at E3. One shown at E3, released at E3. Or Two shown at E3, one releasing at E3, and the other releasing around August.

That's my thought process.

Pretty much has to be, otherwise development went haywire at some point.

I think someone pointed out that Joker is 6 weeks apart from Plant in terms of release, and Joker released six weeks prior to E3. Now that's possibly just a coincidence that depends entirely on how development plans were. Considering Brave was in November's build I could see those three characters being split like that, but I'd be shocked if it is a consistent thing afterwards.

 

[BlueMonk]

I remember that. Thanks for reminding me. Given that Erdrick is a Square rep, I wonder if he meant Erdrick would be revealed at the VGAs when he thought that?

I'm pretty sure he didn't know who the square rep was at that time but had a list of seven characters he had heard about, Erdrick was one of them.
