I don't have problems with the art, it's with the fact that this complete badass was demoted to bride class simply because she has a vagina.
Sexism at its finest. A rathere great example of unfortunate implications for Miss Eirika. IF they were to go with her Awaking look, she would be slow and heavy like the others princesses, which would make her less of a threat than Peach. Her Sacred Stones look on the other hand would be more agile and faster, as much of a glass cannon as her brother.

My solution: A transformation character. :awesome:

Down B: Change clothes!
Throws the bride dress away and draws a sword saying: "Don't underestimate me because I am a lady!"
how are we going to solve this for Ephraim? It's tag-team, and its the most-likely way unless we should have a Ephraim by himself moveset too.

Have him drop the shield and lose the heavy armor. If not, they are fine just the way they are.

I would want Eirika and Ephraim to function differently than Shiek and Zelda. They need to have different feels as well. I don't need a slow KOer, and a light damage wracker again. Something different would be nice.

The bride class is very fast and agile, the dress probably has magical properties.

Ephraim?
All my yes.

Eirika?
Eh, she can tag along too.

BUT SERIOUSLY, EPHRAIM.

Heck yes

I've always liked Ephraim. But from what I've been hearing, if an FE character hasn't made an on stage appearance in smash (Marth, Ike, Roy, Lyn), you're destined to fall into the pit of the forgotten.

A shame too.
Ephraim is probably one of the best lords ever, gameplay and character wise. (I can really only think of Hector, maybe Lyn, and Ike who can compete... maybe Chrom too, gameplay wise.)

That's not true at all! Hector is one of the most loved lords of all time, and he doesn't even appear as a DLC character in Awakening, much less as a noteworthy appearance in a Smash game. Sigurd is known as one of the most powerful FE units of all time, even more so than his son Seliph. Such an occurrence is rare in the series.

Somewhat more (or possibly less) on topic, borderline incest FTW.

Eh. It's close enough for me.
Ike is cool and all, but Ephraim...
He doesn't even need a sword, man. Just his lance and three riders and he can take over a fort.

Ephraim x L'Arachel.
Ephraim nowadays is probably my favorite Male Lord. Replayed the game with my 3DS and it has aged very well, especially considering Awakening's New Features.

Eirika on the other hand could have been written better.

But I love the idea for their Final Smashes.

I really don't think that Erika's bride costume would work well with her fighting style.
It's too poofy!

Now that you've mentioned it, it's best for them to be in their original appearance. After all, Marth's SSB4 design is based on the DS titles as opposed to his King Marth design from Awakening. Since Rosalina's reveal, having too many dress wearers would be a bad idea. Since this topic is alive, I might as well make so slight changes in terms of the design and moveset.
