RONALD 4 SMASH 69 DLC
That’s why they’re adding a 6th challenger pack so this doesn’t happen again.
Don’t worry, he’ll be joining the roster soon enough.
*waluigi stares at you with a snide look*
well said but i still think minecraft steve was robbed of a spot
Remember everyone:
Smash Bros started when Mario and friends were out together, and Mario suddenly decided to kick Yoshi in the leg.
tell me,how to go back in time and stop Mario from kicking Yoshi's leg.
now it's smash emblem
I mean people played fire emblem three houses because they like the series or they like koei tecmos other games.
people complain about Yoshi,only to realize all of mario and smash is about Mario abusing the fuck out of the dinosaur with friends
@@blyat8832 Mario: hey Yoshi use your tongue
Yoshi: no-
Mario: *punches Yoshi in the back of the head*
oh wait i get the joke now.
"Third" party characters
"Three" houses
*Huh, something's wrong, I can feel it*
So it should’ve been Claude as he’s the leader of the third house and golden deer also happens to be the party house
:0
So Jimmy Nuetron
i was the 666th like lol
People are saying to fire sakurai
Damn that must be the worst smash timeline i ever imagine
Sauce exactly, how dare they add another fire emblem character when people won’t shut up about Geno when there are enough Mario reps. Especially when fe is incredibly popular here in the western world. Such hypocrisy
@@ugp0978 Honestly, I am surprised by the fact that all that hate wasn't thrown toward the Piranha Plant. I mean Sakurai put a freaking Piranha Plant of all things in the roster, for God's sake!
The Super Shiny Mega Gengar I mean he’s an interesting addition and I find him one of the funnest characters to play. People probably didn’t hate on him just because he’s a Mario rep. But what they don’t understand is that fire emblem is a wildly popular franchise here in the west and actually needs reps more than other franchises.
HOOOOO BUDDY IT GETS WORSE
Those people are jumping the gun harder than Mario jumps on turtles.
"I cannot fit 2 million people in my house."
Then get three houses. *Quickly exits stage right*
Also a basement
*slow clap*
And a Church
*laugh track sounds*
*Uses JonTron’s voice:* I get it!
I D O N T G E T I T
Imagine if Byleth was the free dlc character and Piranha plant was the last one. I’m curious how that would have turned out.
I would think people would be LESS mad? Because at least you can JOKE about Pirahna Plant in Smash. But his kit is also kind of boring, so he'd be forgotten in a week anyway
@Paul Jakens Yeah but not as salty. Because there's a few who would mention how much Ultimate lacks a new WTF character. Someone no one (or all but one) ever expected to see make it into Smash.
Wraith Bro Plant is not boring. He's got so many unique moves by virtue of not being humanoid.
Seriously would’ve been a surprised
And when would Byleth be released then? over 9 months before the game itself released?
I like how it says “Corrin Chooses to Smash”

God, I'd pay so much for them to add Sakuya. Absolute dream here
@@ChampZGameplays Cute Touhou girl factor aside, Sakuya would actually make for a pretty interesting moveset, kinda like what she's like in modded Rivals.
I feel so bad for sakurai. He never gets enough respect for making a game with love and care. I find it upsetting when people get mad that ultimate isn’t the most competitive game yet.
What does being competitive even matter? I don't know about you, but I'd much rather play the game for the adventure and story, which is why I'm not a big fan of Sm4sh.
I feel really bad for him as well because he gets all the blame for characters like byleth. Characters who Nintendo made him put in for promotion. He has no control over dlc characters for the game. Anyone who says he gets a list of characters that he picks from is wrong. He said multiple times that Nintendo pick the characters and in the Steve presentation said how the process works. If sakurai could pick the characters then I could easily see some of the fighters pass characters being replaced with others
@@thesupershinymegagengar2034 You are playing a multiplayer focused fighting game, for the story? Yea, in that case, I can see why you don’t like Smash. Cause imo, that’s the worst part of the smash games.

Kinda getting tired of bland characters getting genderswap skins in an attempt to make them more interesting [read: capitalizing the thirsty lads who drool over waifus. And I don't mean that in a bad way, because I'm one of those lads]

Well your not wrong about the Majora’s mask part, but you are definitely wrong about Phantom Hourglass.

While in Spirit Tracks the Princess Zelda is the granddaughter of Tetra & Link from Wind Waker & Phantom Hourglass
@@goldengreenie9672 i know tetra and zelda are the same person but i just assumed Zelda never actually becane zelda and just stayed as tetra. also i thought zelda in spirit tracks was the ghost of zelda from wind waker?

I'm just happy because Kirby gets more moves every DLC Character.
Kirby starts with a gun and ends with a giant bow. Perfection
Jake Townsend lol 😂
And he gets cuter every DLC character too. Long live the poyo!
Wow this man really thinking with the glass half full😂😂😂
Jake Townsend yes Kirby top tier not mid tier.
I feel like people forget that this game is about how "everyone is here!"
FACTSS
Somethingsuperbland Ulimate added 1 and a half FE reps. And Byleth I feel like with their moveset and being from what’s basically the second Fire Emblem awakening of the series, deserves a slot...Now Chrom as much as I love him is a different story.
Somethingsuperbland I don’t feel like that’s a valid comparison as weight is well..weight. Weight can break something, but Byleth being in the game didn’t really “Break” anything so to speak.
That is fair, although I do disagree. I really don’t think having them end the last pass was all too great but if they were the second in Fighter pass 2 would have been perfect. And by that same logic of weight, why do people still want Waluigi or another Pokémon? They have equal than or greater weight than the FE characters. I know they’re gonna add a Pokémon from Gen 8 somewhere in the fighters pass. I don’t necessarily think they should wait until the next game to add them. I don’t particularly want them but still.
Last thing, I have seen a lot of FE in smash debates but I have yet to meet someone that isn’t satisfied with the number of reps they have. It’s more of what matters more being the gameplay that matters more to fans of the series as most of them use swords and most people would like a rep to another class and Or aspect of FE like a Pegasus rider. So what are you on about?
Somethingsuperbland By That same logic though to be fair, Dream picks can be added in the next game but I do see your point.
And so they should just be passed because they’re more popular? I see some merit in that argument but it’s clear favoritism for absolutely no reason aside from “I know them.” If we are going for pure numbers and data, A great point against them also works for them as most of them are echos and take significantly less time over someone like Rosilina and Luma, but even so I think if people really don’t like the amount of FE characters, then the amount of Mario characters should be reduced as well. Mario I don’t think has had a character removed at any point in smash. And if you include the spin off characters has some of the most.
And I can’t fully disagree? I haven’t been an FE fan for the longest time since I started on awakening but Hector uses an Axe and Lyn uses a sword and bow, but Lyn uses a long sword so could in theory could be a very unique character while also acting as a “face” character as they are one of the most popular FE characters in ANY game. It’s not that they want more, it’s that they’d rather have better representation which I feel like is reasonable.
Somethingsuperbland It is proven that some resources from Smash4 were taken into ultimate, absolutely not all but some. Robin’s final smash is probably one of them. And although you are right, even Echoes take work, arguing that they get an amiibo and everything is just kind of semantics because that is the standard of every fighter echo or not. Every character even alternate costumes get different voice lines and spirits, and in the case of Smash4 dlc they even got the P2 Amiibo(R.I.P.). All the Echoes are really just an “Eh, why not?” Kind of choice. And I do agree that they are obviously representation. I think Chrom is more of a sad offender if anything. People wanted him and all yeah, but it IS admittedly stupid that Awakening Alone(despite being one of the most popular its crazy) has THREE.
If I were to make equivalents to those with FE using my knowledge.
Mario is Marth obviously because they are both the face respectively.
Roy is Luigi for similar enough reasons that I don’t know a lot of details of.
Ike I don’t feel like has a direct equivalent but he’s a heavy sword fighter that brings a far different game from the others so Bowser?
Lucina is another one without a direct equivalent but I’d say Chrom and her would be equivalent to plant on a much lesser degree, since they show how iconic Awakening was and it literately SAVED the franchise.
Robin is Rosalina, only appeared once or twice in a main line game but both games left such an impact from their games that they are more than likely to be recognized by people who have never played their specific games.
Corrin and Byleth are tricky and I don’t think they have an equivalent at all. But Fates basically tried and failed to recreate the spark from Awakening and failed for the most part but failed in many people’s eyes so take that for what you will. My point is, you can make similar arguments for literarily any franchise. Honestly I think it’s pretty crazy that any franchise has 8 characters or more, but “Everyone is here” therefore every rep from every franchise “is here” so it makes sense for so many of them for both Mario and FE. It is also in an inevitable spot for its characters to not be as iconic as series like Mario or sonic as the games has changed SO much over the years and almost every game has a new cast of characters.
And I completely agree with your last point.
2:40 "Look at Cloud's skins"
Bro look at his songs
Also your idea for Byleth's weapon swapping is what I was thinking, but instead similar to how pokemon trainer works.
Byleth is just another koopaling change my mind
@@hajimemehinata8171 Wrong. She's basically Ice Climbers with a Dedede recovery.
For Pokémon Trainer I’ve always wanted them to use the left and right taunts to switch to either the previous Pokémon or the next one respectively and be able to use that mechanic in the air so charizard can get rock smash back and squirtle and ivysaur could have their own down b moves
Ff7 needs more love in smash. We either need sepiroth, or tifa as a character, and we need more songs and another stage as well as some spirits
@@awesauce1 i feel like having a character with a sword that *literally* covers the whole stage would not be received well
i like the idea of tifa being in the game, but part of me thinks she would just be faster little mac. so little mac but better
The thing I hate the most, was when F3h came out and I told my friend "If dante isn't in smash then I'll play Byleth".....now here I am going to become a byleth player
Congrats on the new main.
You got 6 more shots, don't worry anything can happen
Hit hard, huh? Kinda rough.
Well the chances of Dante getting in the next fighter pass are kinda low...
*but never zero ;)*
@Arruda he played himself, and now he's gonna play the game.
And play Byleth.
I really like this “Let’s Talk about” format. love to see more of that. Totally agree with the move set idea as well.
to add to this, what if byleth only had one special, up b. instead, the others would switch between weapons and offer new movesets. It wouldn't be like monado arts being a jack of all trades, master of none, character fits byleth perfectly.
so you could have 3 inputs for left, right and down, no matter which way you're facing. pressing neutral b would return to the sword and yeah, thanks for listening to my ted talk
It's like a Dunkview, but for Alpharad.
ImFxrr I’d think the opposite would almost be more suiting. I.e., aerials for Bow, Sword jab, Lance Tilts, Smash Attacks for the Axes. Special moves then change based on which weapon is out, allowing for 16 specials (which isn’t that different from Hero).
I feel bad when Sakurai releases a new character and people end up hating it and they end up posting hate about Sakurai on Twitter. I can just imagine him sitting in his office getting sadder and sadder reading all the hate posts about his hard work. 😭😢
i think all the praise for him adding steve has made up for it
Besides Byleth (who is surprisingly awesome in Smash, since Joker), what other characters made Sakurai get all the hate?
they only care for their unrecognizable mario rpg character
@@justinortiz9342 Sad, but true.
@@justinortiz9342 if only they knew when
So, I always liked byleth and all. But I would've loved the character in smash if they played into more of them being a teacher leading their students. Like, I would've loved to see Byleth's smash attacks have her call on Edelgard, Claude, and Dimitri to attack with their respective weapons.
But that's just me :)
I think the most upsetting thing about the Direct was that "God-Shattering Star" wasn't on the list of music being put into the game
No Twilight of the Gods, and no God Shattering Star. I shall weep for our losses.
I agree.
But we have The Apex of the World, I mean imagine how epic fighting Byleth Edelgard vs Byleth Dimitri will be
GSS was the first I heard, Opera and Classical Opera is literally my singing genre, and Nemesis was a beast. Overall, Blue Lions favourite route that I resonate wholly with. Golden Deer however was a fantastic first route for me and I associate all of the game's lore with GSS, so it feels like I've lost a part of the game, if you understand what I mean.
especially no Twilight of the Gods, best music of te entire franchise.

As much as I’m disappointed with arms being the next dlc fighter, that’s still more interesting than ANOTHER fire emblem character.
Yeah tell me about it 😂😂
Adrian Gomez-Donato eh, fire emblem is not a deserving enough franchise to have 8 god damn reps. 4 from one game.
@@RK-zc6gj 4...from one game? Yep, you definitely don't play any of the fire emblem games if you think that. Max is 3, and it saved the damn franchise. And is loved in Japan as much as any other series like pokemon, zelda, and mario. It deserves spots because Sakurai and japan said so, simple as that.
Fun Fact: Byleth was the fifth most wanted DLC fighter in Japan, only behind Monster Hunter in fourth, Dante (DMC) in third, Sora in second, and Lloyd in first. So the complaint that no one wanted Byleth is pretty irrelevant, since Japan would disagree.
According to what source?
@@L337playing I think it's that Character Poll results ranging from Japan, Europe and America that originated on Reddit, it's also the same image that had a Gundam and Sephiroth as one of the top 10 characters Japan wanted to see.
Well that's just japan. Pretty much almost everybody in the west didn't know who this chacter was. Its ok to get representation from games from other countries but having said game take up more than a 10th of the roster when the first fe game wasn't even aviable to the west is ridiculous
epic ninja sensei dinosaur puppet
Agreed
@@epicninjasenseidinosaurpup6957 It was a fairly popular game. I hadn't played Three houses, but I knew who Byleth was when the trailer dropped. Also there are 85 characters in Smash, I think, so 8 FE characters is less than 1/10th.
"Fire Emblem keeps adding characters"
Kirby franchise: [Sweating profusely]
This is VERY true!! How did I not pick up on this. Every single new installment adds characters and lore to the series. Using the FE logic, we could have had Waddle Dee, Susie, Taranza and Magolor by now. Ergo... it's not a one to one comparison.
But those are all side characters. It’s harder to know how enduring their popularity will be
@@emblemblade9245 Read +Nf4 Industries comment.
Every new character isn't "side" - it literally adds to the lore.
Super Kirby Clash, a side game, even adds to the damn lore. Seriously. It's that big.
@@BudsTheAwesome ummm I played all those games. Byleth is a better Smash inclusion than all of them combined.
But Kirby is not about the lore. It’s about Kirby doing his platforming and going up against various bosses. The lore is just a reward for the hardcore fans.
6:22 “The legend of Zelda is a game about item and using those item for you advantage.”
Also showing Link committing suicide using his magnet.
Not as bad as Arin's playthrough on GameGrumps. He blows himself up more than LowTierGod blows himself up playing Snake in Smash.
The face Sakurai did right after Byleth's reveal trailer proves he knew exactly what he was doing
I love apex of the world
But my heart still aches that god shattering star wasn't included, or at least a remix version
The typical Smash fan is upset an FE character got added. Standard/older FE fans wish someone else was added (i.e. Lyn). Fans of 3H are sad that God Shattering Star isn't here.
Hopefully we'll get a Felix Swordfighter skin or something that it will come with, like Megalovania or Floral Fury with Sans and Cuphead.
@@squatch1565 honestly, lyn would add nothing to the roster. fast but frail characters have been done before and her weapon of choice would doom her from the start. i would much rather have a character who is known for a different weapon, like hector or ephraim. lyn is fine as an assist trophy
"Is it insane that fire emblem awakening alone has 3 representatives?"
it took me like 10 seconds to remember chrom was also in the game.
You mean Fireless Fire Marth?
is it insane that at least eight of the mario reps have been in at least 5 games all together? mario, luigi, peach, bowser, yoshi, DK, rosalina, daisy. all of these characters have been in countless games, and more games than one. sure awakening has 3 reps, but mario has a bunch more, who had multiple games that are all shit in comparison to FE awakening
No actually roy with a better up special
@@CallieBlader
The first 4 M&Ls, first 3 Paper Marios, and SMRPG would like to have a word with you.
heheHAHA!
Sending death threats to a man who was hospitalized due to working so hard on a game, that's just uncool.
Especially when he literally had no control over the DLC choices, Nintendo chose them all. He just gave the characters movesets. If anything, people should be thanking him for taking this pick, giving them a unique moveset, and making it work.
I never knew that. Thank you for telling me.
What pisses me off more is that some of these people are probably the same ones clamoring for Waluigi or Geno even though there are already like 10+ Mario reps. These people don’t deserve anything good in life.
Those people seriously need to get lives if they take the dlc pack that serious
DrPeePeePooPoo "yeah but ever Fire Emblem rep isn't a goofy cartoon character"
Different people, different tastes. Doesn't warrant sending death threats
I would argue that every FE character we have either does serve a purpose or has no reason NOT to be there.
Marth is of course the face of the entire series. His fighting style of keeping his opponents at the right distance and hitting them with the tip of his sword is a genius way to transition the gameplay of a tactical RPG into a fighting game. It represents the strategy of patiently picking off your enemies one by one while minimizing risks by staying out of range of enemy attacks.
On the contrary, Roy when introduced in Melee represented an alternative, more aggressive playstyle. It still represented tactical positioning, but his attacks were stronger at the base of the sword rather than the tip. He seems to represent the idea of simply brute forcing strong opponents in FE by attacking them head-on with your own strong units. That may be a bit of a stretch, but let's not forget that he was a clone in Melee. He doesn't really need any justification for being there. He was brought back in SB4 simply by popular demand. So, even though I would say the aspects he represented before don't really hold up now, it can't be argued that it was Smash fans who wanted him back in the first place. And they did take the extra effort to ensure Roy wasn't just a clone again.
Ike was able to take the ideas conveyed by Roy and apply them in a much more obvious way, using a heavy sword to crush his enemies. At the time of his inclusion, no other swordfighter fought like this and even now the only one who comes close is Ganondorf with his forward smash.
Robin was a perfect opportunity to represent weapon types outside of just swords. Using Robin, they were finally able to include a protagonist that specialized in magic. Granted, in my opinion they did a pretty poor job of this by also choosing to have him represent inventory management and weapon degredation of all things, but it was still a respectable decision to include.
Lucina, as an echo, doesn't need any justification. It's worth noting though that she was originally planned to just be an alt for Marth before it was decided to change her sword to remove the sweetspot mechanic of Marth so that she could serve as an easier to master version of Marth. She also represents one of the unique aspects of Awakening: The time-traveling children from a doomed future.
Corrin was a perfect opportunity to represent another new weapon type: Dragonstones. Granted, I do think a more timeless choice to represent this probably would have been Tiki as she is a recurring character and a very popular one at that, but with Fates right around the corner at the time, I really don't think Corrin was as out of place as everyone makes him out to be. He had a ton of unique moveset potential unlike anything any other FE protagonist could exhibit. You can't blame Sakurai for wanting to include him.
Once again, Chrom being an echo means he needs little justification. However, he was a very highly requested character during development of SB4 (even if only because of the gematsu leak). From what I understand, Sakurai had considered including him in SB4 as an Ike echo as well. Between that and fan demand, Chrom's inclusion kinda just feels like "eh, why not?" And why not indeed, as even among echo fighters Chrom is the most unique pulling from two different movesets rather than exclusively Roy's.
Up until this point, there has always been something major missing from Fire Emblem representation in smash: The weapon triangle. A major mechanic in FE games is the rock-paper-scissors relationship between swords, lances, and axes. I always felt like it was a missed opportunity that Chrom and Lucina weren't given a lance in reference to their Great Lord class being able to use lances, but they were instead included as echoes, and including them as original characters and having their movesets built around a lance rather than their signature swords would feel unnatural.
But that brings us to Byleth who, while from an FE game that quite surprisingly did away with the weapon triangle, is also from a game in which any character of any class can use any weapon type. Many people have argued we should have gotten one of the house leaders, the most popular suggestion seems to be Edelgard. Unfortunately, I just don't think it's really fair to include one house leader over the others. They all hold equal importance to the story of Three Houses. This is the same reason I don't think Sakurai would have chosen any of the champions from Breath of the Wild, either. The only time Sakurai has ever chosen among a trio of characters were starter pokemon. I don't think the intention there was to represent the starters specifically but just to choose a pokemon from the latest generation, the most suited designs chosen by Sakurai just happen to usually be starters.
Regardless, I think Byleth was the best solution to this whole dilemma. The Sword of the Creator is a very unique weapon type. Yes, it is a sword, but I'm shocked by how many people overlook the fact that the "sword" is more like a whip than anything else. That alone I think is pretty freaking awesome. Beyond that, the inclusion of the Hero's Relics of each of the house leaders allows for representation of not only the entire weapon triangle in one character, but also allows each of the house leaders to be represented spiritually through Byleth, the face of the game as a whole. Byleth, being a professor, trains in a variety of weapon types to teach his students properly. For this reason, he is a perfect fit to represent the variety of weapon types Fire Emblem has to offer.
I really think people are far more angry about "too many FE reps!" than they should be. Excluding echoes, the franchise has 6 reps. That's still less than Mario and Pokemon and equal to Legend of Zelda. At the end of the day, Smash isn't about the number of reps each game deserves, it's about representing each game as well as they possibly can. As long as a franchise is contributing new ideas, Smash is going to continue adding new characters.

Seriously though, even Ike doesn't play like marth. Or should ganondorf and the links also join the list of swordies? :P
they talked much about echos, but aside from actually "name them" they didn't do much with it.
sure, i get more than most the work that goes behind making every single animation and effect, but would we REALLY be offended that much by a shovelknight-skin for metanight, an X-ray (custom robo) for megaman or even, if we want to do a reverse-orgin, a kamen rider 1 for falcon?
I love Fire Emblem. It’s my favorite franchise in video games and I’ll never get tired of playing it. That being said, I completely agree with you that the cast in smash should be cut in half. I’d say keep Marth, Ike, Robin, Corrin, and Byleth. With the amount of character there are, I don’t think they deserve an echo spot. Those five are unique enough to be the fire emblem reps of smash imo
I hate Fire emblem....at least I know how to beat them all....if I'm lucky....
@@GabiteEditz i hate legend of Zelda... now at least I know how to beat the 3 fucking links
I mean "Echo Spot" doesn't really make sense as an argument. The point of an echo is to differentiate their playstyle and add a bit of fanservice using minimal resources. They don't really take up a "slot", they just get added if the creators feel they can or should, and I much prefer Chrom and Lucina who play very differently to Roy and Marth than Samus and Dark Samus or Peach and Daisy, who play identically to each other.
I really badly wanted Azura to be a playable character but they just made her a spirit.

witch time: the sequel
Pause on Fire Emblem.
Some people really be forgetting that Dante has the same creator as Bayonetta.
And that Bayonetta was at one point considered a Spiritual Successor to Devil May Cry in gameplay.
Now the point I'm getting at is:
Dante would have been Sword-Bayonetta. Bayonetta's Echo, they share many many similarities in gameplay.
@@firstcooommment3675 "sword bayonetta" yeah no, dante's moveset would be different because for starters, he wouldn't get a counter, and second dante would have a gimmick, that being if you don't vary up the moves, you get less damage, but if you vary them up he gets a boost in damage for those attacks. As well as sword changes the moveset SO MUCH (jab, aerials, smashes, tilts, and pummel, hell maybe even the specials are changed because of sword, which they already are going to be different.) So you can't really compare them.
@@anidiot192
Just comparing the animations of each character in the roster, they seem the closest. Due to Dante being a speedy, damage dealer that doesn't rely on a few moves but "the entire kitchen sink".
And eventually no one besides Bayonetta has stylistic animations that matches Dante's flashy and fast style like in his games.
For instance: both of them would use rapid attacks based on combos from their original games.
They both use guns, slow exaggerated heavy attacks(launchers, air spikes,etc), magic, and transformations.
For regular attacks, whereas Bayonetta uses Melee punches, and adds in magic. Dante would instead use his sword mixed in with Melee attacks.
It wouldn't be exact, and many things will be different. But the weight of the attacks/the animations would be pretty similar.
Just imagine his Marvel vs Capcom version, everything he does in there could be converted into a fast character like Bayonetta(if anyone).
Jog Swanson
No counter: Dante has Royal Guard and Quicksilver so getting a counter rolled in would be very easy. Not probable for another Witch Time, but it’s not insane.
Losing damage from no variety: that’s called stale moves in Smash. So the gimmick might be more his styles and weapon pool, though they shafted Bayo’s weapon pool so they’d have to do the same for time constraints.
Smash Ultimate also tries to stay pretty true to the character’s origins. Terry, Joker, and even Banjo are prime examples of that. Mechanics being in line with their main games. And when you get into the nuts of DMC, Dante and Bayonetta play very similar. Stinger is Bayo’s grounded heel-slide, easy ground combo game to launcher into the air, then the same air combo game as Bayo, but more vertical than horizontal.
And I can see him being WORSE because his down-B could be Royal Guard that turns into Devil Trigger like Joker’s Arcen. So you’d have a sword character with access to Bayo’s combo game, Marth or Cloud’s disjoints, maybe different styles or weapons like Shulk’s Monado, and Joker’s Arcen meter. Even if Devil Trigger is his final smash, that’s still at least 2 different things Smash players hate.
And if his playstyle doesn’t match the game, Sakurai would get a fucking storm of hate from the community he’s trying to include. So that combo game is almost necessary if they want Dante in.
I blame Corrin for this,if Corrin wasn’t a fighter then Byleth would have been better received.
The reason Corrin is in is because he has wings. Sakurai is bias with winged characters. A good example is Joker.
@@orangeslash1667this has to be a joke. Joker doesn’t even have wings.
@@G0blinM0de But his Persona (Arsene) does.
The whole "this is what the series is about so this is the representation it gets" argument kinda makes sense... But then you see Metroid with no new stages in Ultimate and two new characters or items, even though it's a series about isolation and exploring new environments while grabbing power-ups. And I say this as someone who's really happy about Dark Samus and Ridley.
Still, this is a really good video.

Counter idea: Make the characters' movesets more varied from each other and add more characters from the other franchises included in smash so that way everybody can find their own little niche from their favorite franchise
Literally the best take on the situation and can be applied to any other issue because it is nuanced and layered that addresses all sides and ends with a "No matter how you feel, don't be a dick"
The problem isn't Byleth, it's the ones who came before Byleth.
I agree with this so much.
Byleth themself is really cool and I can't wait to play them. It was just the amount of Fire Emblems characters the made it mediocre.
Sakurai isn't a god, if he is a god, he would've prevented six other FEcharacters from appearing in smash.
Sakurai is perfect however, as he made byleth that rendered the other six obsolete to play as.
The only tolerable ones for me are Robin and Byleth.
- « Too many swordsmen out there? » said Sothis.
You don't say! This is my main complain about Fire Emblem characters. I don't care about the number, but they all feel the same: blue haired characters with swords, blue clothes and no personnalities. Hopefully, Corrin and Robbin are little different, but they still do not have personnalities, and they have swords!
I am pretty sure if we had Edelgard, Dimitri, and Claude with unique gameplay all at once instead of Byleth, there will be not such downvoting. Mostly because Byleth is a blue haired swordman with blue clothes and no personnality, and the 3 above aren't (even Dimitri). Plus: Byleth popularity is rather average in FE:3H, contrary to the 3 houses leaders. I dream for a new roster like this:
• Edelgard: Axe & Shield. Sturdy and deadly, but slow. Could even have Hector as echo fighter.
• Dimitri: Lance & Sword: quick and versatile, but lightweight. Could even have Lyn as echo fighter.
• Claude: Bow & Wyvern: high mobility and good projectile, but limited option in close range.
• Swordsmen: Make your choice between all those. Even if I like Roy a lot, Lucina and Ike are the best guesses if we are limited to 2.
• Robin and Corrin: because they have unique gameplay.
Well, we end up with 9 FE characters in the end (Edelgard, (Hector), Dimitri, (Lyn), Claude, Lucina, Ike, Robin and Corrin) instead of 8 (Marth, (Lucina), 'Roy', (Chrom), Ike, Robin, Corrin and Byleth).
Marth Ike Chrom Robin Corrin and Byleth are the only ones I really care for
I’ve mained Ganondorf since Melee and seeing Byleth’s moveset just makes me so happy
You’re like the Justin Y of Smash videos
Luca Fiorentini never seen em anywhere else tbh
Yep including the move from byleth's Arsenal that can overcome both captain falcon's punch and ganondorf's warlock punch.
After the character has been out a while, I think the character move set is incredibly fun to spectate, maybe it’s just MKLeo put he sure does make the character look sick
yea📠
Hehe, asking for four different movesets seemed like a lot then, but now we have kazuya with special inputs that have different effects based on how you input them and 14 different grounded attacks along with a bar that boosts the character adds another special move unique to when the bar is out. I don't think that 4 different movesets is that bad anymore.

I think Byleth's moveset is a pretty great representation of Three Houses, actually, because you can equip all those weapons at once and switch between them whenever you want regardless of your class.
I would have preferred all three house leaders, interchangeable like Pokemon Trainer's Squirtle/Ivy/Charizard or old-school Zelda/Sheik. It would have been way better of a rep of 3H than yet another self-insert protag devoid of much personality beyond stern looking and serious.
@@GaminexPro Robin has a personality though. Corrin is also FAR from serious or stern in their game. And Byleth canonically has a reason to be unemotional and detached. But that's spoilers so
Wouldn't those weapons weigh Byleth down.
@@kryzethx Look at how any of these characters act and behave in Smash and you'll be hard pressed to identify their "character". Byleth not only has LESS voicework and dialogue compared to Corrin and Robin in 3H, but so much less expression and boring supports that it is especially moreso a problem for them than Robin and Corrin.
In my opinion I’m happy Byleth made it in, but I feel like since these were mostly third party everyone assumed that. I am certain that even if sales were less the overall reaction would’ve been more positive had it been waited on.
And now we’re almost halfway to 3 mil

@@jackchaddusthundercock5150 roy is a semi clone of marth. and the two other echo characters as you stated. and that doesn't change the fact they they are all swordsmen besides byleth. and the fact they they have had a total if 3 dlc characters in the past two games combiner
Echo Xone Again, Roy is not a semi clone, he plays completely different from Marth and has a different moveset. The only thing they have in common is their side and down B. And if we go by your logic that swordsmen are a problem in smash, honestly just quit the game, considering even more swordsmen will be added(aka Steve and there’s a good chance Dante and Sora will be added).
Edit: Roy also has the thing where he is strong if he gets in melee range with other characters, making him a swordie with a range like a normal fist fighter.
@@jackchaddusthundercock5150 don't put words into my mouth because i never said swordsmen in smash were a problem. if you like fire emblem cool but don't put random bullshit into my mouth. the problem is fire emblem has a diverse set of characters with ither weapons such as axes and lances, yet every single character uses a sword. Byleth himself uses a sword. There are 8 characters who all use swords. I like playing as swordsmen, but fire emblem has other weapons that need to be utilized in smash. i do not know if you are a fire emblem fan but i would gladly appreciate if you didn't try to twist my words to fit your agenda
Admittedly nothing will stop me from being happy that I can finally play a FE character I actually understand and care about, and they're really unique unlike some of the other sword fighters. And that stage and music is so good

If you played all three houses then it will be immideatly obvious where that fourth route is.
thebenjcrew There’s 4 routes, one of them is called “Hidden” but it’s really obvious where it is. It branches off of one of the first 3 routes.
I think the “FE is about characters” is a point that I’ve never thought of. I think it is a point that needs to be more realized.
Someone else was pointing out that Fire Emblem games usually have around 30-40 playable characters and there's a different roster for all sixteen games. They could have easily found characters within the series that had way different playstyles if they didn't mostly just use the protagonists from the more popular ones. In a way, if you were to judge by percentage of characters, Fire Emblem is actually under represented.
Agree. That's why I love the games. Its focused so much on trying to make these likeable characters. Three Houses did the best job. I fell in love with my students in Blue Lions. And then when they die you actually freak out cause you don't want to lose them. Its rather interesting from a psychological perspective
Also great profile pic and name :D
@Team Plasma Unofficial *its no use!*
