Designing Alear for Smash Bros.! - Challenger Approaching
For details on the canon fighters' stats and hitboxes, check out Ultimate Frame Data: ultimateframedata.com/stats.php
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Welcome to another episode of Challenger Approaching! In this series, we create full newcomer designs for characters who might be invited to a future entry of Super Smash Bros, going deep into detail on their moves, stats, and many other details!
This time, our Challenger...has a reputation that precedes them. Fire Emblem has long been a point of contention among Smash fans, with accusations of the series getting undue attention, especially on the roster. And Alear's game of origin has been a point of contention among Fire Emblem fans, with Engage's drastic shift in tone and focus on gameplay over story and character writing turning off many who has just become interested in the series. To say there are very mixed opinions toward the idea of Alear joining the next Smash game...would be an understatement.
But does Alear's array of moves, skills, and other abilities secretly offer enough potential to win over their many skeptics? And could they diverge enough compared to Marth and the other Fire Emblem fighters in Smash? I think I've found a solution, and it give this character a style only they could truly pull off.

Modern Pokémon's Biggest Problems Aren't What You Think

To say Pokémon is a big deal would be an understatement. Its rise to become one of the biggest video game franchises there is hasn't been spotless, though, especially not recently.

How Paper Mario Lost Its Way (Until Recently)

Paper Mario is a storied spinoff series with a...complicated reputation. While it began as a pair of RPGs with an alternate take on Mario's world, a desire to keep the games fresh, interesting, and not redundant led to constant change and experimentation...with very mixed results. While its earlier titles are highly regarded to this day, opinions about every game since have been split, with man...

With 2023 nearly over, it's time to reflect on everything that's happened...and look ahead. 2024 brings another promising year for video games, and after the incredibly high bar this year has set, the next will be hard pressed to follow it up.

Two years have passed now since Super Smash Bros. Ultimate finished its DLC, enough time that fans have started seriously talking about what Nintendo might do for the next title.

A re-release for Nintendo's next system with some new content tacked on? But one...

In fire emblem engage, Alear wakes up…. with amnesia
I'm curious to see how you would do Cortex, from Crash Bandicoot!
For her skins, I want Dread power suit, Prime varia suit, Prime gravity suit, stage 1 PED suit, stage 4 PED suit, dark suit, light suit, Fusion suit
Samus when three of her deadliest foes are in Smash as playable fighters: *"WHY?"*
Del, you sound really tired. Get some rest.
A 9th FE character feels like too much, but if they cut it down to 4, I wouldn't want to give a spot to these characters who I believe are both poorly designed and bland in the character trait department. Just let the vets take the spots 🤷🏼♂️ Nothing against your moveset though, I love your attention to detail as always!
The character design + coming off of a game where the story was strong. Engage has a better gameplay, but everything else falls short
you're missing the point of what the problem here is and why paper mario fans like myself are upset because paper mario is about mario's story , that's why that is it's original title in japanese , the fact that the game had a story book aesthetic was co-incidental and complementary , but also auxiliary the modern paper mario's aren't about mario's story anymore , they're about paper jokes and gimmicks best or most innovative gameplay be danmed , that's not what we want from paper mario
It could’ve been Genesect.
This was so cute, I love Alear… would I want them in smash, idk because I don’t even play it! But I really love what you planned for them, especially the emblem attacks. I guess Micaiah is the only unused emblem right? Lol
As far as the base game ones it's just her and Eirika that didn't make the cut
*before watching* WHERE'S BRELOOM?! THEY BETTER BE HERE!!!
Amazing video, loved all the ideas especially the Engage mechanic. I've seen people say they could have the different Emblems function like Shulk's Monado, but this is much better. I really want Alear to be in the next Smash game! Day 1 main even. Heh.
