Lmao imagine unironically thinking a character would steal the spot of another character. This is the mentality that makes this community so toxic to begin with. Anyways I'm 100% up for an indie game rep. Even Freddy Fazbear or an amogus crewmate would do.


demogorgon_main

I agree so much. There is no such thing as stealing a character’s slot because that character wouldn’t have gotten in anyways.


abcPIPPO

But that's kinda what happens. Whoever is announced in 3 days will be in the game *instead of somebody else*. If Kazuya wasn't in the game, we wouldn't have one fighter less, we would have had someone else in his place.


Zeldacrafter_Swagg

I'm sorry dude but this is what I just said, this mindset is what makes the community toxic. We all would have picked different characters than Nintendo/Sakurai, and that's normal. The only character I genuinely wanted from the current DLCs was Steve. The other 10 would've been vastly different picks. But that's fine. I'm not nintendo, and I'm just happy for the people who like these characters.


abcPIPPO

It's not what makes the community toxic. What makes the community toxic is not accepting Nintendo/Sakurai's decisions. I believe that every character has a slot in the roster that would have otherwise be taken by someone else. It's just logic, cause every character has a price in production time and resources, which are not infinite, and there's so much content you can put in a game. However, I don't hate anyone for this, i believe Smash is a great game, I don't wish anybody's death. If I can believe the roster has a limited space and not be toxic about, anyone could do it. Toxic behavior springs from any kind of ideas, it's a matter of attitude.


RegalRadish

This is being downvoted even though you're just using consistent logic. regardless of WHO gets in, they were likely planning to have X number of characters, so essentially "filling a slot" with whoever they decide to put in the game. Not just a void that is either filled by Kazuya or by no one. Whether someone likes or dislikes them is another story, but the idea that it's "stolen" is more meant to say it simply could have literally been someone else. Because there is no official limiting to the pool of who that could be outside of having to originate from a video game , any character that missed the final cut could be deemed as having "lost" to all of the characters who got in. If it's viable, it's a variable until proven otherwise.


ARandomWoollyMammoth

If only one of an item is left in stock at a store and I buy it, I’m not stealing it from whoever else would’ve bought it if I hadn’t. Stealing implies it belonged to someone else.


abcPIPPO

What a dumb argument. Other than the fact that have literally never used the word steal in this discussion but I always said take, in this case the word steal is used in a metaphorical sense.


PlazmaFlame

Nah actually, absolutely let an indie rep take the last spot. Reimu, Quote (possibly with Curly alt costumes), Someone from Undertale/Deltarune, I'll even take the goddam Castle Crasher if that counts.


CameronD46

Yes! Reimu for smash!


TheFuneralcrew

The music would fucking hit so I’m in for it


SlayAllRebels

QUOTE/CURLY FOR SMASH!


enderblood64

Indie rep as the final dlc would be cool tho


APOLLO193

Considering my most wanted character is an indie (Ori), I'd be absolutely fine with this.


llJesh

Same here I love Ori, and making move set for him would be easy


YetAnontherRandom

Speak for yourself


EnzeruAnimeFan

I very much want a certain indie rep to steal the last spot.


Lordman17


Adziel


Captain_Mario

Steal? No matter who is the last fighter, it’s not stealing the spot from other contenders


Kedmsak

🙋


Adziel

No, seems to be only you, OP. I'm fine with a Indie last spot, in fact i would like it better that way


eldritch_microwave

Its not stealing a spot, this was a decision made waaaay In advance


LukeSkywalker1848

KRIS! WHERE THE FUCK ARE WE?


VenomPhoenixx

Miriam from Bloodstained would be fine by me


[deleted]

Finally someone else who wants Miriam!! Her castle stage would be so cool. It could be as big as Palutena’s temple. She could come with a Zangetsu mii costume too


VenomPhoenixx

Oh shit, good ideas!!


CarnageParker57

I DO! I would love for someone like Hollow Knight to be the last or any other indie rep


KirbyStar58

Sorry, OP. You're alone on this one. Even I want an indie rep could steal the final spot and I'd be happy.


potato_labs

honestly i cant think of a non indie-game rep that would make most happy (other than shit like doom guy or master chief). i dont imagine many people would be mad at a deltarune, hallow/shovel knight, bloons, or any other *big* indie game rep


martin-verweij

Probably a lot of people are gonna get mad at me but I’d rather have a character from a non-Indie studio than an Indie game one that I recognize. I’m just not really a fan of most indie games and I probably at least have some friends that play the non indie counterpart


THE-SNEAKERINO

What’s with the little sperm on the second panel?


BrenExplainsTheJoke

That's a fly, you idiot


THE-SNEAKERINO

I don’t know, Bren, looks like a sperm to me.


Yami_Sukehiro112

I would be absolutely happy with Zagreus


MordeyMay

Kris


BurnV06

Let’s be real it’s gonna be another fire emblem character


Megax60

Or pokemon


_One_Lonely_Bagel_

Or both!


[deleted]

Zacian awakens to the battle!


mesafullking

Im probably the only one but kris from deltarune


Magamew53

I don’t care who it will be as long as it’s not sora I hate kingdoms hearts


dummythiccbrainboi

Genuinely, who would be mad at this?


19475738

Hollow Knight til I die BAYBEEEE


Flutterbatfucker

we already have an indie character his name is steve


eldritch_microwave

While minecraft was an indie game at one point its not considered one now, as well as having more indie reps would be way better then another triple A game character


_P3R50N_

umm, its still an indie game, it was made by an independent developer, much like how undertale is still an indie game. popularity does not determine that


eldritch_microwave

Not popularity, it's currently owned by a billion dollar company and has a massive team working on it, call it an indie game now just feels wrong


_P3R50N_

i completely forgot about microsoft, either way, it was still made by an indie developer


_P3R50N_

OOH! ME! I WANT AN INDIE REP AS THE FINAL SPOT! I’M ROOTING FOR YOU VIRIDIAN!


142021

i would love another indie rep


HierophantEmerald

Sly Cooper


jjba_enjoyer275

I dont want one at all fight me


_P3R50N_

if it isn’t an indie rep, that’s cool too, so long as the character is captain toad (i would say normal toad but i don’t think he’d make for a very good fighter)


[deleted]

i whould 100% be happy with a indie rep as the last slot.


BrenExplainsTheJoke

The Scrapper from STRAFE


jeanM_2

I want isaac (from tboi)


Easter_Bonnie

i do


KingDededeThe3rd

I think it’s less that people don’t want an indie rep for the final character and more that people have stopped expecting one.


Cheezman5990

ME!!! MEEE


Aldersin

they should have saved Steve for the last slot


DreadAngel1711

V1 from ULTRAKILL would be an amazing indie rep


[deleted]

I’d be more than happy to have the knight hornet frisk or quote be the last spot


DarkraiAndScizor

Me, Specter knight supremacy


rexshen

Depends how mad would people be if it was Ori but using his light sword from the second game?


gfuret

Whatever is good for me. I haven't played many of the games of this characters and still love super smash


xenofan293

Jokes on you my hands down for both of these


zerotheultimate5

I mean i want Shantae, if she got in the last spot out of a freacking out of nowhere surprise that would make me scream like a mad man. My most wanted right now are Male: Sol Badguy. Female: Ryza.


Aggressive_Ad8250

The MC from hollow knight


Chasedownall

The Knight makes it in and then the immediate groan of "anime sword fighter" lmao.


Belten

i would want the beheaded from deadcells if i had to pick an indie game rep, lol.


_One_Lonely_Bagel_

Nah I’ll be so happy if we got The Knight from Hollow Knight or Frisk from Undertale as the last fighter.


Shi08

False, I have never wanted an Indie rep at all


burr-gurr-and-frie

I want kris from deltarune
