    Why should Zelda one-shots and Mario spin-off characters be playable in Smash?

    iconic meaning overall popularity to the general public and fans of both Zelda and Smash alike. Skull Kid w/ Majora's Mask is a good example of a character who is iconic since Majora's Mask has so much merch and a large pop culture resonance.

    Why should Zelda one-shots and Mario spin-off characters be playable in Smash?

    The way I see it, as long as a character has popularity and is seen as iconic, nothing else should matter in terms of potential inclusion. That's why Sheik is still in Smash and hasn't been replaced by Impa at this point, she's just way more iconic.

    Post movesets for your most wanted characters

    My most wanted character is actually a revamp of Samus' current moveset. I made 3 different versions, one based entirely on Dread, and the other 2 taking on inspiration from multiple different games. I played around with the idea of being able to use different beams with the other two movesets...

    Why should Zelda one-shots and Mario spin-off characters be playable in Smash?

    I'm fine with people wanting Impa, but I have seen people around the internet suggesting they replace Sheik with Impa which is just idiotic to me. If I had to pick a Zelda character to add it would be Skull Kid since him and his game appeared to get the most attention in terms of new Zelda...

    What are the most iconic moves for current characters that are being disregarded by Smash?

    I've made a revised moveset for Samus based on sugesstions ive read in this thread from older posts. One post mentioned each beam upgrade replaces her forward special with the different charge combos from Metroid Prime so I made my revisions around that. I also took inspiration from PM where...

    Official Next Smash - Speculation & Discussion Thread

    Read the down special page. I put that it would be her crawl just like in PM.

    Official Next Smash - Speculation & Discussion Thread

    This please. I actually drummed up my own movesets for a Samus redesign, one based on Dread and the other taking more inspiration from the series as a whole. Dread Moveset: https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/1RDlfGvpDMkV7JIoh5-MAsb92tkV4SQyYn3ouzTWlenY/edit?usp=sharing General Moveset...

    Things about your character you want changed, and things you wish to keep the same?

    I made two new movesets for Samus, one based specifically on Dread while the other one takes inspiration from multiple games. Both movesets keep some of Samus' old attacks that I felt were fine but I made an effort to replace moves that I felt were out of character or were just plain outdated...

    Redesigning Samus (but keeping her the same)

    I made a separate moveset specifically for Samus' appearance in Metroid Dread. It has some differences from the revamped moveset I posted prior but is largely similar. https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/1RDlfGvpDMkV7JIoh5-MAsb92tkV4SQyYn3ouzTWlenY/edit?usp=sharing

    What are the most iconic moves for current characters that are being disregarded by Smash?

    Read the google slide again. It doesn’t function like normal counters. Min Mins up tilt already reflects projectiles like Mario’s cape or Fox Shine so it’s not any different.

    What are the most iconic moves for current characters that are being disregarded by Smash?

    They already function extremely similarly to how the arts work. The only thing that’s different is that you have to take the risk of being attacked if you want to be able to use a beam for a longer period. It seems completely fair to me. And the melee counter wouldn’t function like other...

    What are the most iconic moves for current characters that are being disregarded by Smash?

    That would be pretty neat, especially the one for Dorf. Here’s a complete moveset I made for Samus if you’re interested: https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/17GkyxbVDqYrjBDo28Mqj38MeZtAqoCWaLE8Q7oBqvLY/edit

    What are the most iconic moves for current characters that are being disregarded by Smash?

    Exactly what I had in mind. what do you mean when you talk about variations for falcon and dorfs punches?

    What are the most iconic moves for current characters that are being disregarded by Smash?

    Yep. Rapidly press B and you fire the power beam and press and hold and you start charging. That way, it’s identical to how it works in literally every Metroid game.

    What are the most iconic moves for current characters that are being disregarded by Smash?

    I originally had that idea of making a lot of her neutral attacks as the power beam but dropped it in favor of just adding it to her neutral special instead. I think the melee counter would work best as an up tilt.
