The first letter of each column is D, L, C. :) These are my current predictions for DLC fighters in Smash Ultimate. I'm assuming in this project that Spirits don't de-confirm fighters. I'll probably adjust my predictions to be more accurate. I couldn't fit everyone in, as only five fighters are coming (unless that one leak about two packs is true) The first column is the five top fighters I would like to see get in. The second column is the five fighters that I think are most likely to get in. The third column is the five fighters/franchises I seriously don't want to get in. Feel free to remix with your own lists!
Here are explanations for my selections: Banjo) Banjo Kazooie has a great soundtrack, and is hailed as one of Nintendo's classics. This would make a great third-party rep, much better than Steve. Sans) Before you yell at me for "not understanding how Smash works", allow me to explain why Sans is on my list. While I agree that Sans is quite overrated, he is also arguably the toughest and most intelligent character in his game. Undertale is also one of my favorite games, and probably one of the best games ever made. Honestly, I'd be fine with anyone from Undertale. I think the game deserves some representation in Smash. Waluigi) Alright, there's almost no chance for Waluigi, but I want him anyway. Tails) I don't exactly get why Shadow is more popular than Tails by this large of a margin. I think Tails would be great in Smash. While the argument is that Tails is weak, I think that he could make up for that with recovery. Remember people, Tails can FLY. That's ultimate (no pun intended) recovery if you ask me. Impa) Impa just seems like the most likely new Zelda rep, which (especially since FE has outnumbered it) is utterly deserved. As with Sans, I'd be fine with whoever we get if we get a new Zelda rep. Geno and Steve I think are self-explanatory. Rayman) I don't want Rayman a lot, but out of everyone else, I think he has the most predefined moveset. Dr. Eggman) With Nintendo's direction towards more of the villain characters, Dr. Eggman makes the most sense for a new Sonic rep. Especially since besides Sonic himself, Eggman is the oldest character. Banjo) Yep, people can appear in multiple categories. Fortnite and FE are self-explanatory. Street Fighter has enough reps. In fact, Ryu was enough in my opinion. Final Fantasy is overrrated. And I personally don't like Cloud too much either. He just annoys me for no reason. Steve is in only in the third column assuming he makes it in WITHOUT Banjo getting in.
