Yeah, the Lakeside Laboratory in Ocarina has a measuring stick that places Link at five three. I think BotW Link might even be slightly shorter, every adult NPC towers over him.

You know they say that all demons are created equal, but you look at me and you look at Pyro Jack and you can see that statement is not true, hee-ho!
The only thing wrong with the Pac-Land stage was that it didn't have the stage music from the game that was basically just an instrumental version of the Hanna-Barbera Pac-Man cartoon theme song.

I've never played Pac Land and it's one of my favorite Smash stages. I even managed to get my group into it and they normally hate scrolling stages.

I just looked it up

https://www.reddit.com/r/smashbros/comments/85zedl/umebura_31_granting_us_the_gift_that_keeps_on?sort=new

The rules

https://twitter.com/GBRIN151/status/975830581161283584

Which i believe is (roughly)

-4 player game, everyone selects DDD. Pac-Land is the stage

-300% health, items set to Bob-ombs and Green Shells (high frequency drop rate)

-Your goal is to try and make it as far as possible throughout the stage, while holding Jet Hammer (press down and B and hold B) the entire time. You can only get over obstacles by walking and jumping

The goal is to get everyone to the finish, though I imagine you can change this up to a 2v2 or FFA type game as well

Its why I've never liked him in Smash. In all the 3D games he's a little dude with a gymnast's build who's light on his feet and does a ton of acrobatic flips.

In Smash he's heavy and slow as gently caress.

Battlefield platforms are Unown on their sides, so you can only see which ones they are by pausing and swinging the camera up. Platforms are always the same size, but randomize which Unown they are every match.

Don't know what the main part of the stage would be, though...

You'd be pretty heavy and slow too if you were hauling around a sword, boomerang, bow and arrows, infinite bombs, a grappling hook (made out of thick metal chain!), all while trying not to rip your tights.

I mean in BotW he's a high ranking knight and got there through skill.

Doesn't jump isn't the same as can't. There's no reason to be jumping all around everywhere. He doesn't have a Talk button either, but that doesn't mean he's literally mute

Next to what character's are in, the thing I care about most (because I'm dumb) is character colors/costumes! Here are my thought's so far on what I'm likely to use.

Bayonetta: Haven't played her game, so unsure what to pick. Probably go with green, which I uses the most in Sm4sh.
Bowser: Blueshell come to life! Though I might do grey as well. Will need to see them in action.
Cloud: Suffers from 3rd party "meh" choices. I guess movie teal or purple, not that they vary much.
Corrin: I love her orange armor. Never cared for her male skins.
Donkey Kong: Green sloth Kong! Though yeti is always tempting.
Fox: I really like the black jacket with the green highlights.
Ganon: Probably stick with the smurf look.
Ice Climbers: Lemon & Lime!
Ike: I prefer the old skin to the one with the giant pauldron, but can't decide what color I like. Will have to see them in action.
Inkling: The green skull is the clear winner, though I like the look of the navy ink.
Kirby: Classic black & white.
Link: While I'm a little disappointed Fierce Deity is missing his chest plate, it surprisingly looks like the costume I wear the most in BOTW, so I'll stick with that.
Little Mac: The Hooded Wireframe is back! Favorite skin in the whole series.
Mario: I like the new Wedding and Builder outfits, but will probably still with Amerio. I love that ugly pattern.
Marth: I can never decide on him. I guess the purple cape? Kind of don't care.
Mega Man: Grey and Yellow for that construction feel.
Mewtwo: Still disappointed the proper green from Melee is still gone. Guess I'll settle for cyan.
Ness: Probably bumble bee, but am considering the tile pattern.
Pac-Man: Oven mitts, cause your going in the fire!
Pikachu: I mourn losing the goggles (hopefully to Pichu) but am happy Libre is here to smash!
Pit: Probably stick to blue wings.
Pokemon Trainer: Wish there where more images of the pokemon. Probably blue, as that's the Charizard I used in Sm4sh.
Ridley: Need to see what they do with Meta Ridley. With the current options, I'm liking the silver with green accents and the red snes boxart.
Ryu: Meh karate man. Grey? Black?
Samus: If Dark Samus alt is gone, she better be an echo. Probably go with the fusion suit in it's place.
Sheik: The vaguely Tetra pallet, cause ninja pirates are cool.
Snake: Either jaguar or red to hide in the explosions.
Sonic: More meh. Gold rings? Silver? Glowy?
Villager: Four Ball tee looks like me in Animal Crossing.
Zelda: I think I like the red brunette waifu best.

Saving opinions on the rest, which weren't in the demo, until we get more pics or info.

Yeah, BotW Link and Warriors Links are definitely exceptions. Though I still hold BotW Link got there through tactics and gadgets rather than raw swordplay since that is also how to excel at combat in the game.

Link is a great warrior a couple of times, but it's because he's flexible and cunning, not because he's a peerless sword machine.

Ken has always been a clone of ryu but over time has been diferentiated enough to be an echo fighter. Are we back to thinking he'd use up a "slot" or some poo poo?


It's pretty unlikely that they'd create the name echo fighter and an on screen symbol and anything and then literally make only one (Daisy) and carry one over (DPit)

People are suspecting Shadow will be one since now there’s a Knuckles assist trophy and his hasn’t been seen yet. If that actually happens then I think Ken will be a safe bet.
