    I kind of genuinely want Doomguy, even though there's no good reason for him to be in there
    Excuse me, but have you seen the size of K. Rool’s guts?

    what would solaire of astora's taunts be
    one would have to be praise the sun, maybe one is sitting at a bonfire, one is the "come at me" open-arms gesture?

    maybe an estus flask chug, since I can't think of a way to incorporate estus chugging as a special move other than having it be a heal which would not fit in smash.

    He’s like Snake. His taunts are just 3 variants of Praise The Sun.

    can someone explain to me why stages still have different blastzones even in Omega form

    it seems like the whole point of Omega is the stages are all mechanically the same so you can have lots of different aesthetics for competitive play instead of just the one?

    if they're still different doesn't that...invalidate the point of it

    I thought they fixed that for this one

    All I see is a lot of people referring to WarioWare as a "small stage"

    it certainly is, by itself
    do you know that they mean the omega/bf versions? or just hazardless?

    Healing isn't unprecedented in Smash. Estus is a limited resource, anyway.

    You know what I'd be cool with someone from octopath making it on dlc. that game already has very good music for a stage

    I'd like therion, tressa, or maybe primrose?

    yeah but a move that's just a straight "you heal some damage" isn't how smash does things

    I love Earthbound a bunch but Ninten would be a real bad choice for a fighter.

    He looks almost exactly like Ness and there really isn't anything unique to him for making moves out of.

    He's echo fighter material at best.

    I'm still kinda surprised Dr.Mario didn't get rebranded as an echo fighter.

    Or one of Young or Toon Link.

    They have different enough properties that they don't fit the bill

    Most Echo Fighters have, like, one minor difference. Like how Lucina's damage is evenly spread across her sword and Marth's is heavier on the tip of it. (Or vice versa, I forget)

    I think the idea is slight differences vs bigger differences but I'll admit I'm not really sure what Dr. Mario does different than Mario besides a different Down B.

    Dr. Mario has a large number of differences, not a large difference.

    It’s because he has a PHD and Mario doesn’t.

    The only reason I can see is that they decided echo fighters was a brand new thing in 4, so obviously older characters can't be echo fighters.

    It does seem weird that in Smash 4 Dr. Mario was placed in the "barely different club" on the character selection screen besides Lucina and Pittoo, but they ended up running that back in Ultimate.

    there are a number of characters that, if they were new to this game, would probably be echoes.

    I would bet they wanted to make every character who has appeared before a ‘unique’ character

    There's still Rivals of Aether if you want to play a Smashlike with Shovel Knight.

    Having not really played since melee I am oddly looking forward to playing all the new sword boys and girls, if only for remembering how novel marth and Roy felt in that cast. Also for trying to figure out the subtle? Differences between all of them.
