Zelda/Shiek so high? I'm surprised, I haven't seen anyone play her when I'm playing irl.

Ok. I'm pretty damn sure Captain Falcon will be number 1 or 2. Who else... One of the original 12 are gonna be left out no matter what. I still hope for Ice Climbers.

My last, totally unreasonable, prediction before the leak hits:

6MnKPXn.png


The roster of the 3DS version will be the leaked one with only Chorus Kids added in. When the Wii U version comes out there will be 4 more characters as free DLC: Ridley, Dixie, Ice Climbers and Mewtwo (two vets and two newcomers).

Chorus Kids - The Gematsu leaker is 10/12 with only them remaining as a mystery. It's really weird to think he'd get almost everything right but miss on such a weird character, he'd gain nothing to even add them on the list, surely not a safe bet like the others. Moreover in the last few days there has been a deleted tweet from someone who supposedely attended the closed doors Smash demo at PAX mentioning the Chorus Kids. Sneaky spirits are also in.

Ice Climbers
- Polar bears are in and if Chorus Kids are a thing, there's no reason to have them cut. We know that the verified ESRB video leak was announced beforehand by Ninka/Vaanrose in text on Smashboards. That leak mentions Wolf, IC, Snake and Lucas as all cut. However it's very possible that the leakers mistook the video roster as final and based their text leak on that, not noticing the All-Stars lock.

Dixie Kong - The only newcomer of the forbidden seven still viable after all this years, especially due to her recently starring in DK:TF, but also due to her enduring popularity with the fans.

Mewtwo - He is a fan favourite, he was planned to return in Brawl, he has been one of the faces of X/Y, and one of the only two (IIRC) pokémon to get two different mega evolutions (the other is Charizard, who's already in).

Ridley - If he's in (shadow.gif), Sakurai will keep the troll up till the Wii U version releases, when almost nobody expects him anymore, if not as a boss.

This is what I'd like as DLC:

3 vets and 3 newcomers as DLC for 2015, Mario Kart-like, at 6 months intervals.

Lucas/Wolf/Snake - Out of all the characters declared cut, Lucas is the one who's most probably truly gone, as the Gematsu leaker (someone who surely had correct info, even if probably outdated, as shown by him knowing the name of the Mii Fighters) said the team was wondering who to cut between Ness and Lucas, leaving the other as DLC. So maybe they're not truly gone, but all planned as DLC due to time constraints.

Isaac/Paper Mario/K.Rool - Mostly wishful thinking at this point, no real reasons. We have a stage for Paper Mario, still no Isaac assist trophy, Kremlings in Smash Run for K.Rool.
 
Maaaan, I join the SmashGAF chat for the very first time, super excited to whittle away the evening in it, and I get kicked out after two minutes for... who knows what. Tough crowd in there.

If I knew for certain the leaks were going to happen tonight I'd go buy beer and order pizza but I have a feeling that I would just end up getting too drunk on a weeknight and being hungover at work tomorrow for nothing and it would all be samurai's fault.

But if the leaks DO start pouring in... I want to be ready! Decisions, decisions...
 
You guys also have to remember, these votes aren't just for the characters in Smash but the characters themselves in general.

But I can't wait to see Falco tomorrow. :3

We wouldn't see Zelda[/strike Sheik, my butt. Incredibly well deserved placement. Amazingly fun play-style, amazing design, and one of the handful of characters in Smash that belong more and are defined more by their place in this series than they are in their origin.
 
Surprised to see the Zelda/Sheik love. I've always hated transformation characters, so I've tended to shy away from Zelda/Sheik, Pokemon Trainer, ZSS and even Ice Climbers for similar reasons, so I'm incredibly happy they are all being separated in this version. I'll definitely be much more likely to go more in depth with Sheik and Charizard and ZSS.

You got kicked for not using your GAF name.

Usually that's not a rule, but I'm an idiot and told people to go to the chat instead of the thread so it became crowded and chaotic and they kicked all the Nintendo Americos.
 

Masked Man

I said wow
So that was a legit taunt just given a provocative first impression?

Precisely! I made a point of checking out all three of her taunts, and it definitely didn't stand out to me as being erotically charged in the least. It was more like "Wow, this fight is way too easy. I'm just going to stretch."

Holy crap so it WAS real.

It'll still be called her stripper taunt, no matter how it actually looks.

I know, and that makes me sad because it's totally not. :(

Bad timing. Assuming you didn't pretend to be the Treehouse or w/e, you shouldn't take it personally.

Surprsingly, a lot of the comments were for Zelda.

That is a surprise considering how generally bad she's been. Like, she's just not very appealing to play I've found -- other than the lightning kicks nothing else about her is very satisfying.

I would laugh so hard if Fox is #1 for the veterans thing, though, somehow.

You got kicked cause there was an influx of non-participating people that weren't using their GAF names. You can come back in, just tell us who you are on GAF (or use that name).

If you consider it to be one half Melee Sheik and one half PM Zelda, it seems like a much more explicable choice. That and the massive popularity of the character(s) and series.

Here is a new leak from earlier today that has a new newcomer being in the game that rarely gets discussed

My name is HAMBER. We are a group of 2 people that have Super Smash Bros for 3DS in Japanese. You want details? Her you go.

> The remaining characters to be announced are; Dixie Kong, Duck Hunt Dog, Impa, Ridley, Prince Fluff (Extremely Unexpected), Dr Mario, Dark pit and Mewtwo (I only included Psuedo Veterans and Newcomers in this list)

>Dr Mario’s Final Smash is called “Virus Attack” All opponents turn into Viruses and Dr Mario’s pills (Standard B) will be much more powerful if the viruses make contact with the pill

>Meta Knight DOES have a Galactica Knight Alt.

>Pac Man has a Ms. Pacman alt.

> When Charizard’s shiny palette is chosen, his mega evolution final smash appearance is different. He turns light blue, like he does in Pokemon X and Y.

>Lucario also has a shiny palette swap. He stays shiny during his Final Smash

>Olimar has an Alph alt (Already shown off)

>Peach still has her Daisy palette swap, but she looks A LOT more like Daisy this time around. She also sounds like Daisy.

>Master Hand plays a HUGE role in this game

>Ganondorf has unique choices for his custom moveset.

That is all I have for today, I’ll be back tomorrow. Peace out Smashers

I feel like the leaked roster will be the final roster, barring the potential of eventual DLC.

I'm expecting that the main things we'll get tomorrow is seeing how Duck Hunt plays, the couple stages we haven't seen, some interesting custom moves and costumes. Stuff like that.
 
Yuss Zelda, one of my mains <3

Glad to see Sheik isn't shackled to her again this time and she gets a proper down B (even though it apparently sucks).

this would be tops blooby
 
Here are the rankings leading up to the final 2. I've updated it to include the breakdown of 1st/2nd/3rd votes so you can see just how things came out. I also fixed the rankings to work with all the ties that happened, so characters ranks will be a little different than what the banners have listed.
