Speaker 1: Hello, when welcome to side Quest. This is our weekly
Speaker 1: video game show here at geek Ferst, and we got
Speaker 1: the full crew tonight because we have a very special,
Speaker 1: fun draft episode of the show. I'm your host, Delmos
Speaker 1: and have with me the Smashing Machine. Travis Snell. How
Speaker 1: are you doing?
Speaker 2: I'm doing good. All's excited to talk about Smash and
Speaker 2: the future Smash and draft. So it's a trifecta for
Speaker 2: me tonight.
Speaker 1: Absolutely. Kirkland Path, Sir, the Smash Seed. What's up.
Speaker 3: I'm doing great. I'm excited to get another draft. Going
Speaker 3: should be good.
Speaker 4: Mhm.
Speaker 1: We've got the hero of time with the quick name
Speaker 1: change there, Taylor, you went back in time to change
Speaker 1: your nickname. How you doing tonight?
Speaker 4: I am doing good, happy to be here. Yeah.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 1: As I said, we got a special episode here. We're
Speaker 1: gonna do a draft for the roster of Smash Super
Speaker 1: Smash Bros. Six. Of course, this game is not officially
Speaker 1: announced at this point in time, but we can all
Speaker 1: safely assume, I think with pretty high level of certainty
Speaker 1: that in the Switch to era, we will get another
Speaker 1: Smash game and it will have a roster of characters.
Speaker 1: And we are here to each make a selection of
Speaker 1: picks of characters we think we'll make it into the game,
Speaker 1: and then at the end some characters that think we
Speaker 1: will get cut from the Ultimate roster, because how do
Speaker 1: you top a game like Smash Ultimate. I feel like
Speaker 1: that's almost an impossible task. Like maybe the only way
Speaker 1: they could do it is if they just rerelease Smash
Speaker 1: Ultimate and then add like ten more new characters, which
Speaker 1: honestly they might do and it would throw this whole
Speaker 1: draft into shambles. But assuming they don't do something like that,
Speaker 1: we have to imagine they're gonna shake it out, maybe
Speaker 1: even reboot or something like that to kind of freshen
Speaker 1: up the roster, because where do you go when you're
Speaker 1: already at like the very peak of what Ultimate has done.
Speaker 1: So that's what we're here to do today, and we're
Speaker 1: gonna get right into it because we each have a
Speaker 1: lot of picks to make and it could be kind
Speaker 1: of lengthy. Here is the way we're gonna We're each
Speaker 1: gonna draft twenty characters. Okay, at least five of those
Speaker 1: must be newcomers, so you know, we're gonna have some
Speaker 1: fun here, try and get some characters I think will
Speaker 1: be new additions to the series in the future, but
Speaker 1: you can pick you know, if you want. Again, it's
Speaker 1: at least five, So you could go twenty newcomers if
Speaker 1: you want, and just go for gold and not take
Speaker 1: any of the old guys. Hey, I would respect that
Speaker 1: if you went for it.
Speaker 3: The way it.
Speaker 1: Works is you're gonna get one point if you pick
Speaker 1: a returning Nintendo character. So if you just pick Mario
Speaker 1: on your draft, I'm gonna say it, it's a boring
Speaker 1: easy pick. You don't only one lousy point for it,
Speaker 1: but hey, that's probably a guaranteed one point. Maybe you
Speaker 1: just want to pick twenty boring picks or fifteen boring
Speaker 1: picks and then five newcomers, that's up to you. You
Speaker 1: get three points if you pick a returning third party character.
Speaker 1: So I think there's like what like twelve to fifteen
Speaker 1: third better characters in Smash right now. Maybe a little
Speaker 1: bit more dicey to pick those because you never know
Speaker 1: what rights and things like that. If character it's not
Speaker 1: as easy for Nintendo to just stick them in their game,
Speaker 1: right because I already got all these approvals pay people
Speaker 1: that kind of stuff. You'll get five points if you
Speaker 1: get a correct newcomer. So this is pretty hard to do, right,
Speaker 1: what characters they add to Smash. Sometimes the Sakari picks
Speaker 1: the freakiest things, like Terry Bogard from King of Fighters.
Speaker 1: No one saw that coming. But sometimes they are more
Speaker 1: straightforwards on, like Sora that everyone wanted for twenty years
Speaker 1: at this point. So, yeah, we just gonna get five
Speaker 1: points if we get a newcomer correctly. Pretty hard to do,
Speaker 1: and then after that we are gonna make a selection
Speaker 1: of three characters, then we will be cut from the
Speaker 1: Smash Ultimate roster. Of course, every game prior to Smash
Speaker 1: Ultimate from Smash four had characters cut from the roster.
Speaker 1: You know, they can't all make it in there, especially
Speaker 1: with a game like Special that has almost ninety characters
Speaker 1: I think over nine if you count like Pokemon Trainer
Speaker 1: as three characters, you know, all that kind of semantical stuff. Yeah,
Speaker 1: characters are without a doubt, probably gonna get removed from
Speaker 1: the Ultimate roster in the next game. So you're just
Speaker 1: gonna get two points if you pick a character who
Speaker 1: does indeed get cut, and a bonus point if you
Speaker 1: pick a character that is on someone else's list, which
Speaker 1: I think could make for some spicy picks in there.
Speaker 1: Can someone pull up the wheel for me, the great
Speaker 1: wheel and we're gonna do this snake draft style. So
Speaker 1: again everyone's getting twenty picks that these five new come
Speaker 1: and you can do this inn anyumaldy. You could pick
Speaker 1: your newcomers first. You could do your your boring Nintendo picks,
Speaker 1: your third parties. It's probably a strategy thing, right, who
Speaker 1: do you think is the most hotly contested character? Someone
Speaker 1: you might you think someone else might pick, maybe want
Speaker 1: to grab it up first. But again it's it's your
Speaker 1: guys strategy here. And I will say, like I obviously
Speaker 1: like have an encyclopaged knowledge of the Smash stuff. I'm
Speaker 1: just a nerd about this roster stuff. If you guys
Speaker 1: have any questions about like, oh what uh Lucas was
Speaker 1: he ever cut from a game? Was he ever added back?
Speaker 1: Was a DC character? I can answer any of those
Speaker 1: questions if you if you have any good clarifyications, because there's, yeah,
Speaker 1: there's a lot of weird stuff that's happened in over years.
Speaker 1: But like they added Pokemon Trainer, but then like Smash four,
Speaker 1: they cut like two of the three Pokemon in the
Speaker 1: Pokemon Trainer and just had charge Ard and then they
Speaker 1: added all of them back for Ultimate. So there's weird
Speaker 1: things like that that will pop up. Of course, Kirkland
Speaker 1: bring up that big juicy wheel. Let's see who's gonna first.
Speaker 3: I found out we can do full screen on this.
Speaker 3: Look at that? Is that just beautiful?
Speaker 2: It's an update?
Speaker 4: Right? Great?
Speaker 3: They're getting a lot of funding.
Speaker 2: Yeah from us.
Speaker 3: We bring a lot of attention to them.
Speaker 4: Okay, it looks like.
Speaker 1: The Hero of Time himself is gonna make the first
Speaker 1: selection round of applause stiff right up?
Speaker 3: Oh I love that guy.
Speaker 2: Yeah, you shouldn't be cheering.
Speaker 1: He doesn't seem happy about that.
Speaker 3: That's between you, you and me, Kirk the pokeball.
Speaker 1: He leaves me in last place. But first to make
Speaker 1: a snake draft, sneak, and just for confirmation, let's roll
Speaker 1: me in. I guess before we kick it off the rules?
Speaker 1: Did everything makes sense? You guys have any questions or clarification?
Speaker 3: So is this just like release characters or to this
Speaker 3: like extend to DLC.
Speaker 1: Okay, you know, maybe when the game comes out, maybe
Speaker 1: we'll do another smaller draft for like DLC, who we
Speaker 1: think will get added as DLC or something. But this
Speaker 1: is like as of the day the game releases and
Speaker 1: the roster at that point in time.
Speaker 3: That changes things, Okay, a lot less confident it changes
Speaker 3: things maybe returning third party, but okay, good to know.
Speaker 1: I mean that that is a good point because like
Speaker 1: characters like mewtwo and Lucas have been cut from prior
Speaker 1: games and then added back as DLC characters, which is
Speaker 1: an interesting case where technically they were not in the
Speaker 1: base roster of Smash four, but they came back later
Speaker 1: on no other questions. Then we can kick over to
Speaker 1: Taylor to kick it.
Speaker 4: Off, all right, returning third party character, I think just
Speaker 4: gonna drop that right now, let's go. I feel pretty
Speaker 4: good about duck Hunt.
Speaker 1: Now that is a Nintendo character, is not a third
Speaker 1: party That's.
Speaker 2: Right, that's locking in duck huntin for Taylor. Yeah.
Speaker 1: Yeah, we'll give you a mulligan on that one, Taylor,
Speaker 1: if you want to pick an actual.
Speaker 4: Appreciate it, I'm gonna takel no.
Speaker 2: Character.
Speaker 4: I do know what third party is, but I don't
Speaker 4: think end.
Speaker 2: To find that. You don't think Donkey Kong's Nintendo.
Speaker 4: Nintendo. But I'm getting confused with like.
Speaker 1: Let me Taylor. Here's the case if you scroll down on.
Speaker 2: That was the first one of the first ten games.
Speaker 1: That's true. From on the list of the document at
Speaker 1: the very bottom are all the third party characters. All
Speaker 1: the third party characters.
Speaker 3: In Smash are uh Sonic, Bayonetta, ru Ken, Mega Man,
Speaker 3: pac Man, Cloud, Seffroth, Kasia, Terry, Hero, Steve, Banjo, Kazui, Sora, Joker,
Speaker 3: Simon Richter, and Snake.
Speaker 1: Those are a third party Sonic.
Speaker 2: So then we know from Sonic down that's it. I
Speaker 2: just so we gotta, you know, table for back this
Speaker 2: a few times. I think, so.
Speaker 4: Probably give me pac Man. I thought Donkey Kong was
Speaker 4: owned by like a different company that Nintendo just like
Speaker 4: leased in. Was like, yeah, I don't think I'm in
Speaker 4: a different timeline right now you are.
Speaker 2: There's set, there's a station.
Speaker 1: Is like a rare who's now owned by That's what
Speaker 1: I was thinking.
Speaker 4: That's where I was kidding.
Speaker 1: Owns the rights to Donkey Kong and all of his characters.
Speaker 1: All right, pac Man is on the board for Taylor Travis.
Speaker 2: Now, good job, let's save this. I'm gonna go with
Speaker 2: a Nintendo character, but someone new. I'm gonna go with
Speaker 2: somebody that I think people would refer to. I may
Speaker 2: not say that, but there's a way to you could
Speaker 2: maybe agree with this. Uh, have you guys heard of
Speaker 2: what an industry plant is, where like all of a sudden,
Speaker 2: this person this things around, not that type of plant,
Speaker 2: industry plants carpenter. Right, Yeah, so people say, right in
Speaker 2: the industry, And you know, it's funny because the person
Speaker 2: opinion is also a singer. I'm gonna pick Pauline because
Speaker 2: this is an industry plant character. Nintendo's trying their best
Speaker 2: to make us care a lot about Pauline.
Speaker 3: I barely even know who this character is. I feel she.
Speaker 2: Oys she was randomlykly just popped up in Donkey Kong
Speaker 2: Bananza as like a baby, and then she's in Mario Kart,
Speaker 2: and I think she's in Mario Tennis right recently.
Speaker 1: Sports Games Strikers, she's strikerskers DLC character. Yeah, and she
Speaker 1: would not be on the bas roster if it was
Speaker 1: a striker.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm saying that she's gonna be a bass roster here.
Speaker 2: I just feel like they keep Adner and stuff and yeah,
Speaker 2: I she has city powers. There's things you can do,
Speaker 2: so and I guess you can almost like cheat and
Speaker 2: someone be like, well, it's another Donkey Kong character because
Speaker 2: she's like heavily tied to DK. I would not say that,
Speaker 2: but like you could.
Speaker 1: Make them so protagonist of Bonanza. I guess, yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: So I mean.
Speaker 2: Go Pauline. I think she'll worm her way in there.
Speaker 1: I I think that's a very cool pick, especially after
Speaker 1: the Bonanza hype and all that. And yeah, I mean
Speaker 1: I think you know there, there's some trends in Smash.
Speaker 1: One of the only trends, uh, one of the really
Speaker 1: consistent trends. Every Smash game has had a new Pokemon
Speaker 1: and a new Mario character. Those are the two franchises that,
Speaker 1: no matter what, always get a new character. You think
Speaker 1: Zelda might be in there, don Y Kong, No, just
Speaker 1: just Mario and Pokemon though, the only two that consistently
Speaker 1: get a brand new character every single game.
Speaker 2: And it's like we're running out of pop their main
Speaker 2: Mario characters. They don't give a fuck about Walla Oigi.
Speaker 2: So it's like, oh, this girl that's been popping up
Speaker 2: in all these games, to me feels like that's kind
Speaker 2: of a I'm not gonna say it given but I
Speaker 2: feel strongly about that. Hands White's my number one pick.
Speaker 2: Welcome to Team Pauline.
Speaker 1: I love because I did not even have that on
Speaker 1: my list, but I think it's an excellent pick. Okay,
Speaker 1: all right, hopefully Kirkland. So far two characters that start
Speaker 1: with the letter P. Are you gonna continue that trend
Speaker 1: as well?
Speaker 3: I'm gonna drop a big pe on the pass button
Speaker 3: and not do that. I am gonna bring a new character,
Speaker 3: a new Nintendo character here, a character that's been in
Speaker 3: the game before, kind of as a sidekick, but I
Speaker 3: think we're gonna completely change that character's move set go
Speaker 3: for the next game. I'm gonna make Toad his own character. Okay,
Speaker 3: the next Smash game down. I think it's about, you know,
Speaker 3: our boy Toad gets his own character. Yeah. I just
Speaker 3: feel like it's a fun, small character that can have
Speaker 3: some unique moves in there. And I really believe Peach
Speaker 3: is going to be a lot different than kind of
Speaker 3: how she's been in the past a few games, just
Speaker 3: kind of with Yeah, I don't know, because of the
Speaker 3: movies and just the more recent games, I feel like
Speaker 3: she's not so much just the Princess Peach that she
Speaker 3: has been before. And that's also just kind of me
Speaker 3: willing that into existence because I love the character Peach,
Speaker 3: but I've never been a Peach player on Smash specifically
Speaker 3: because it's just like too buoyant for me. I I
Speaker 3: just don't really love her move sets. So yeah, that's
Speaker 3: kind of like my heart pick. And yeah, hopefully it
Speaker 3: works out and I get some some juicy points for
Speaker 3: that one, and you get.
Speaker 2: Two for two because they just throw tone at as
Speaker 2: a skin, right like they do with like the badgerd
Speaker 2: Juniors and whatnot, So you get so many different toad skins, right,
Speaker 2: just boom Don.
Speaker 3: Toadsworth as one of those.
Speaker 2: If were there, I'm just gonna put him in on
Speaker 2: easy mode on Little mag and just like have him
Speaker 2: at one hundred sucks banging him over again, banging like
Speaker 2: a drum.
Speaker 3: If Little Mac comes back, we'll see.
Speaker 2: Hey, all right, I get.
Speaker 1: Two picks here. I'm gonna take one that is a newcomer,
Speaker 1: uh not, and as a third party newcomer, because I
Speaker 1: don't think I don't think Travis will leave this one
Speaker 1: of the next round. Specifically, I'm gonna grab leon as Kennedy.
Speaker 1: I think Resident Evil is bigger than ever he's back
Speaker 1: in the series. All these games are on Switch. There's
Speaker 1: a lot of Resident Evil stuff in Ultimate in the
Speaker 1: form of like spirits and stickers or whatever the fuck
Speaker 1: all that, all that random stuff is never been a stage,
Speaker 1: to be fair. But I just think Capcolm a big
Speaker 1: deal right now. Residon Evil big deal right now. Leon
Speaker 1: kind of the face of the series. He came back recently,
Speaker 1: and uh, I think I think, uh, I think he'd
Speaker 1: be a good pick. I think he could be in there.
Speaker 1: I think it's a very high chance.
Speaker 2: He's in the Only thing he said was wrong in
Speaker 2: that statement, Dillon is that he's kind of the face
Speaker 2: of franchise. He is the face of the franchise as
Speaker 2: mister Kennedy.
Speaker 1: At this point with the new game, I would say
Speaker 1: he definitely is. If there was any question before.
Speaker 2: He's got those stats to back it up.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 2: No, I think music stage that's a good one. I
Speaker 2: don't think it's one hundred percent lock, but I think
Speaker 2: it's almost like to me, if it doesn't happen now,
Speaker 2: it might not happen. You know. It feels like this
Speaker 2: is this is the.
Speaker 1: Good time, you know, And I can't I'm I'm already
Speaker 1: imagining the revealed trailer for him, and it's gonna be sick.
Speaker 1: I can't wait for it.
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's gonna be good. All the skin is Tornado
Speaker 2: kick yeaheah, Yeah, it's just a spin kick, kicks different,
Speaker 2: all different, make Tornado kick for this, he'd be young
Speaker 2: and he reds four. They canna be old. Yeah, there's
Speaker 2: some good stuff you could do there.
Speaker 1: And then for my next trick, this is tricky, so
Speaker 1: many directions we could go here. We'll see. I will
Speaker 1: say Toad was uh was a high one up there
Speaker 1: for Kirk is a nice nice.
Speaker 2: I had him in the top five as well, So
Speaker 2: that's a good one.
Speaker 1: I'm gonna go with, Oh, what are you guys gonna take?
Speaker 2: Is the is the problem?
Speaker 1: I'm gonna go with. Okay, maybe I'll back off the newcomers.
Speaker 1: I'll see what kind of things you guys go for.
Speaker 1: And I'm just gonna go for a safe, easy third party.
Speaker 1: I'm gonna go with Sonic, the first first ish third
Speaker 1: party in Brawl. That was when they first introduced third
Speaker 1: parties in the form of Sonic and Snake. Snake got
Speaker 1: cut in the next game, but Sonic He's been there
Speaker 1: the whole time. He's got multiple stages in there, pretty
Speaker 1: good stages too, in my opinion, there's all sorts of
Speaker 1: trophies and items. I don't think Sonics going anywhere. It
Speaker 1: fits perfectly in the cast. He's been in there since
Speaker 1: two thousand and six at this point, over twenty years.
Speaker 1: I don't think he's going anywhere. I will grab Sonic.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think you're I think that's a lock. Just
Speaker 2: way Sonics going right now, because he also hasn't like
Speaker 2: broken out so big, but like I, we don't need
Speaker 2: smash anymore.
Speaker 1: Like yeah, I feel like Sonic, like Marios I, maybe
Speaker 1: bigger than ever right now, has this serious. So that's great.
Speaker 3: Awesome is that me?
Speaker 1: That's back to you?
Speaker 3: Awesome. Well, I'm gonna I'm gonna follow your trend here.
Speaker 3: I'm gonna take uh someone spicy here. I'm gonna take
Speaker 3: none other than Doctor Robotnick himself, very party character. I
Speaker 3: feel like his stock, like you said, Sonic is is
Speaker 3: very popular right now. I feel like Doctor Robotic has
Speaker 3: never been so popular because of the you know, the
Speaker 3: great Jim Carrey's performances.
Speaker 2: That's a good one.
Speaker 3: Yeah, So I and man, what a fun like move
Speaker 3: set he could be bringing right, like just in his
Speaker 3: his gadgetry and stuff like that. So yeah, doctor Robotnick,
Speaker 3: Doctor Egman.
Speaker 2: Yeah, No, that's a good one that I don't think
Speaker 2: that would happen, but I just want that to happen
Speaker 2: because that would be tons of fun. All right, with
Speaker 2: just a vis We're going, I'll just light it down.
Speaker 2: I'm throwing in knuckles. I'm gonna say that there. We
Speaker 2: can get someone else because maybe Tails would come up.
Speaker 2: But I just feel like, let's be honest. I know,
Speaker 2: Tails honestly should come up. He's the first sidekick. But
Speaker 2: all the days, all the people are like, you got Tails,
Speaker 2: you got knuckles.
Speaker 3: You just go a little mac version of a Sonic character.
Speaker 3: So it makes sense that you're it's just like vision
Speaker 3: there as an as trophy right now. So he's already
Speaker 3: in there punching and stuff.
Speaker 2: So exactly, yeah, and he's got he got his own show.
Speaker 2: You know, I just feel like he is kind of
Speaker 2: if it's not it's not robotic knuckles. Uh, it's a
Speaker 2: character that's new the roster. But also don't they like
Speaker 2: tremendously hard to make because it kind of mastered Sonic, right,
Speaker 2: So I think that would be still a hype one.
Speaker 2: So yeah, I'm gonna throw Knuckles. I'm sticking with the
Speaker 2: sonic theme right now. Knuckles has joined me another newbie.
Speaker 1: Beautiful Taylor. You're gonna keep the Sonic train going.
Speaker 4: Was your second pick? Dylan Tails, I missed it.
Speaker 1: I got you Son, just returning through party.
Speaker 4: You got okay? Okay?
Speaker 2: He picked James Marsden.
Speaker 4: I took James Marston as himself.
Speaker 2: He gets to play his character from the the what's
Speaker 2: the not thehearsal Jerry Dudy. Yeah, just James Marston. He
Speaker 2: got Cyclops.
Speaker 4: Yeah, okay, I'm going to this time go with this
Speaker 4: is a character newcomer, and this is a game that
Speaker 4: I used to play all the time with my cousin,
Speaker 4: also named Dylan. Just go there and play video games
Speaker 4: all the time with him back in the day. I'm
Speaker 4: gonna go with Beautiful Joe. He's got two games. I
Speaker 4: think a third one that's like a not a number one.
Speaker 4: Who is Beautiful Joe. He's Beautiful Joe. Give a Google
Speaker 4: you'll see him. It's an old GameCube game, hell of
Speaker 4: a lot of fun. It's gonna go Beautiful Joe. I
Speaker 4: think there's a high chance that this guy could make
Speaker 4: a comeback and pop in there.
Speaker 2: Beautiful Joe, Okay, beautiful, beautiful.
Speaker 4: Joke a dog, Yeah, beautiful Joe. I don't know any
Speaker 4: fucking beautiful, Like, what.
Speaker 2: Are you talking about? Who's the last game of this?
Speaker 2: Though this is a deep cut, there were three last five.
Speaker 4: It was a long time ago.
Speaker 1: I mean, I the thing is Taylor. I think it's
Speaker 1: a cool pick because Zachary always does that. He always
Speaker 1: has weird old characters in their ice climbers. Their last
Speaker 1: game was like what nineteen eighty two and they got
Speaker 1: added into Brawl right like so or Melee. There's always
Speaker 1: there's always a character that's at least hasn't had a
Speaker 1: game in twenty plus years, but not many. So you
Speaker 1: might be throwing the needle.
Speaker 4: So we'll see. I hope he pops in there. That'd
Speaker 4: be pretty sweet.
Speaker 3: I like that.
Speaker 4: He's awesome. It's cool. Uh, let's see who else I
Speaker 4: want to throw in here. I think.
Speaker 2: Beautiful Joe, Yeah, beautiful, so beautiful. I'm gonna throw.
Speaker 4: I'm gonna throw. I have two and I just I
Speaker 4: feel like both of them are very strong contenders that
Speaker 4: you guys could go for but one. I only get one,
Speaker 4: and just for help of it, I'm gonna go Spiral.
Speaker 4: It's my next newcomer.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's a good one.
Speaker 1: Respect Yeah, especially with a new game on the horizon.
Speaker 4: Yeah, great pick.
Speaker 2: Yeah. With you throwing that out, I'm I'm gonna go
Speaker 2: a similar route. I'm gonna take Crash Bandygoot here because
Speaker 2: obviously they remade those games. There is a rumor that
Speaker 2: they're making a new game right now. There's an actual
Speaker 2: room that they're making a movie as well, which I
Speaker 2: don't think. Don't make that movie. Like I love Crash,
Speaker 2: but like you want to, you want to move to
Speaker 2: bomb right in front of you, make a Crash Bandicoot
Speaker 2: movie in my opinion, But I think it's kind of
Speaker 2: similar Sonic, where they're trying to inspire, they're trying to
Speaker 2: keep this franchise and live, they're trying to spruce in
Speaker 2: it up. Being in Smash only helps out. I hope
Speaker 2: that's what is eventually the goal of Banjo. But I
Speaker 2: think Crash becoming in uh in Smash right there, like
Speaker 2: that that that marketer, that hashtag right there, the stages,
Speaker 2: the music, there's tons of fun stuff, and I think
Speaker 2: again if we could, and I don't know what's gonna happen,
Speaker 2: we'll alsously tell about this cast with Taylor's pack band.
Speaker 2: There's Mega Man, Sonic, Mario. I don't think Crash is
Speaker 2: on that level of the icons of gaming like they were,
Speaker 2: but if you're talking about the nineties mascot icons, Crash
Speaker 2: is there. So I think that would just be cool
Speaker 2: to have. If you had Mario, Sonic, Banjo, Spira, if
Speaker 2: you had those nineties that we're getting all those ads
Speaker 2: and commercials and playing those games for hours, I think
Speaker 2: that would be very, very fun of like another full
Speaker 2: circle sort of thing. So yeah, go with my boy
Speaker 2: Crash right here, and I would just it's like Banjo.
Speaker 2: He Banjo was my long term like I really want Banjo.
Speaker 2: I got him last time. So for the new characters,
Speaker 2: Crash would be probably highest. Spiro's close as well, but
Speaker 2: Crash would be my guy. So mm hm cool, thank you?
Speaker 5: Oh all right, I think I'm gonna I think I'm yeah,
Speaker 5: I'm gonna take a new person here, not a new
Speaker 5: franchise by any means.
Speaker 3: This could be a big swing and a big miss.
Speaker 3: But if it hits, this is out of the park.
Speaker 3: This is a Grand Slam home run walk off home run. Here,
Speaker 3: I'm gonna take Rookie and Ochi, the combo from the
Speaker 3: newest Pickman game, so the main character from Pickman, and
Speaker 3: then I do think Ochi would be like a part
Speaker 3: of his move set. I don't know, like obviously Pickman,
Speaker 3: like they are a weapon in there, Ochi is an
Speaker 3: entirely different thing. So I think it would be like
Speaker 3: a combo there it's a big, deep pull, but man
Speaker 3: if that hits something so pumped.
Speaker 2: So yeah, really I think he could be playable like that.
Speaker 2: That'd be quite a different type of character in SMA,
Speaker 2: Like it'd.
Speaker 3: Be a big character, right, Like he doesn't have to
Speaker 3: be like technically it's a small world anyways, so like
Speaker 3: it doesn't really matter the scale, like they could just
Speaker 3: make big characters.
Speaker 2: Yeah no, just looking at him, but I guess there's
Speaker 2: characters that move like you just is not like the
Speaker 2: quintessential like house smash like that you know, people run,
Speaker 2: but there's so much I.
Speaker 3: Feel like it would be a really really unique like
Speaker 3: like mechanics to him, like like you can knock Rookie
Speaker 3: off of Ochi or something, and then it's just like
Speaker 3: he's a very more vulnerable version.
Speaker 1: They can even just make it like when you're charging
Speaker 1: a Smash attack, like that's when Oachi comes out, and
Speaker 1: then just like the true like that's like the main
Speaker 1: thing you do with Oachi and that game is charging
Speaker 1: amount of different things.
Speaker 3: Totally, or like how Warrio has his bike right, like
Speaker 3: it's not like a permanent.
Speaker 1: Or you could like like jump off his head, like
Speaker 1: there's different ways they can incorporate him in the moves
Speaker 1: that without him being like there the whole time.
Speaker 3: Totally.
Speaker 1: I would love that. I think it's pretty unlikely, but
Speaker 1: I would love if that happened. So that's cool.
Speaker 3: There you go.
Speaker 1: I'm gonna go return to our Sonic thing. I'm gonna
Speaker 1: put Shadow. To me, Shadow is the most likely newcomer
Speaker 1: because it almost could just be like a Echo Fighter
Speaker 1: a clone of Sonic as well, so maybe be easier.
Speaker 1: Sonic has been in a Sist Trophy and Smash since
Speaker 1: Brawl as well, so like twenty years in the mix.
Speaker 1: To me, that seems like actually the most likely. I
Speaker 1: think your guys' picks are more interesting than Shadow, but
Speaker 1: I think that's the one that's just kind of the
Speaker 1: easiest to print money on almost and so I'm gonna
Speaker 1: grab Shadow Hedgehogs specifically.
Speaker 2: Yeah, he was there too for me.
Speaker 1: Yeah, and then I think I'll go for I'm kind
Speaker 1: of liking my thing right now, go with a wild newcomer,
Speaker 1: and then like an easy third party. So I'm gonna
Speaker 1: grab I'm gonna grab Mega Man as my other one.
Speaker 1: I think Mega Man's another one of these almost mascot
Speaker 1: type characters that's just gonna be in all these smash games.
Speaker 1: Only got Adam Smash for and has been around since then,
Speaker 1: but just fits beautifully in that roster. Really unique move
Speaker 1: set as well, being the only character in the game
Speaker 1: has the majority moves being projectiles, so I think that
Speaker 1: adds a big selling point, comes with the stages and
Speaker 1: all that kind of good stuff. So yeah, I'm gonna
Speaker 1: go with Mega Man.
Speaker 2: Nice. Yeah, I think he's coming back forever.
Speaker 1: Back to you, Kirkham, back to me.
Speaker 3: Okay, I'm gonna do. I just gotta double check to
Speaker 3: see there's two characters that I'm looking at, but I
Speaker 3: can't remember which ones.
Speaker 2: Keeps doing this, Heep says, scaring me with these two characters, like, oh,
Speaker 2: it's kind of you know first when he's talking about
Speaker 2: to it. So he's gonna be pitching like separating the
Speaker 2: ice climbers or something, you know, but it didn't happen.
Speaker 1: That would be crazy.
Speaker 3: Okay, I'm gonna take climber. Oh man, that could be
Speaker 3: a gamble without making you guys wait here. I'm gonna
Speaker 3: skip that one for now, hopefully nobody else takes it
Speaker 3: or not. And I'm gonna take Cloud. Uh protagonists from
Speaker 3: Final Fantasy that third game is coming out soon. Obviously
Speaker 3: no Smash right around the corner, but I feel like
Speaker 3: he's still a really relevant character, very like iconic visuals,
Speaker 3: and I feel like he's a more popular character on
Speaker 3: the roster as someone that's not really in the depths
Speaker 3: of the smash scene. That's just kind of what I feel.
Speaker 5: Uh.
Speaker 3: So, Yeah, I'm gonna throw Cloud in there.
Speaker 1: Pick Yeah, I think that's uh. I think they'll do
Speaker 1: everything they kind of get him in there, especially with yeah,
Speaker 1: that Final Fantasy seven being more relevant than ever right now. Yeah,
Speaker 1: maybe not more than ever, but it is quite relevant.
Speaker 2: Again, I think I could make an argument that it
Speaker 2: is b with social media everything in new generations picking
Speaker 2: up right, Like it's just say it's it's it was
Speaker 2: a phenomenal, but that kind of is again. But no,
Speaker 2: I agree, I think Cloud's sticking around. Okay, I'm gonna
Speaker 2: go with I think they gotta pull the trigger. I
Speaker 2: didn't think they were going to, but I think with
Speaker 2: Ultimate anyone was smash uh just smash with you or
Speaker 2: what was it? Was it just smash switch was? I
Speaker 2: always forget the stupid title before before, But isn't the
Speaker 2: have like a is it just smat? What is it again?
Speaker 1: Talking about you and three DS games? Yeah, Smash for
Speaker 1: three DS, Smash for WU.
Speaker 2: It's for in the title. It's in the official title.
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's kind of like it's the pun though, it's
Speaker 1: like it's Smash for this car.
Speaker 2: I just don't don't like it.
Speaker 3: Oh, I don't like that.
Speaker 2: No, I never liked It's a bad title.
Speaker 1: It does not have a melee brawl. Ultimately, it doesn't
Speaker 1: have a Yeah, it's just uh.
Speaker 2: For a while, I always thought I didn't know how
Speaker 2: I felt about these characters being these games. But then
Speaker 2: they opened the doors box and you know, once the
Speaker 2: monkeys at the bottle, you can't put it bout them
Speaker 2: back in. So I'm gonna say they're gonna put some
Speaker 2: more you know, kind of two D three D, you know,
Speaker 2: side scrolling fighters, someone near and dear to the heart. I'm
Speaker 2: gonna say, Scorpion's gonna be popping in here. It's time.
Speaker 2: I think Scorpion's gonna get over there. And uh, I
Speaker 2: think when you got street fright in there, when you
Speaker 2: got tech and they start incorporating, because for while I
Speaker 2: thought they're gonna keep it more in a cartoony sort
Speaker 2: of world base with your marios and even even fire
Speaker 2: em was I thought as close as you get to
Speaker 2: like real world top characters. And now you got Simon Richter,
Speaker 2: you know, sorry Taylor, you got all those type of people.
Speaker 2: I think that Moral Kombat is that's another and maybe
Speaker 2: that could be the theme of this game. That's another
Speaker 2: Scorpion that's a nineties iconic character, right, That's like something
Speaker 2: that would fit with that Crash and spiro Sota thing.
Speaker 2: So and you know, nineties and two thousands of nostalage
Speaker 2: right now is all the rage. So Scorpion, He's coming in.
Speaker 1: Yeah, that was maybe my next pick. Uh, Salty took
Speaker 1: that one cause I think you're right like they Yeah,
Speaker 1: with Smash four is when they introduced the kind of
Speaker 1: traditional two D fighters. They added a couple more in Ultimate,
Speaker 1: and I think they're gonna I think that's gonna be
Speaker 1: a trend for every Smash game going forward. Yeah, and
Speaker 1: I think Mortal Kombat makes the most sense. Is the
Speaker 1: next one that one or Sole Caliber maybe, but I
Speaker 1: think Mortal Kombat blows out of the water in terms
Speaker 1: of relevance. The only thing I worry about is the
Speaker 1: uh m ratedness of that and if they're able to
Speaker 1: tone that down and make it still fit.
Speaker 4: Now.
Speaker 1: Beyonetta was a very sexual character and they obviously down
Speaker 1: and made her fit, so I think they can do it.
Speaker 2: And even Snake too. There's there's games where his stuff
Speaker 2: is like the more later games, it's pretty gruesome. So
Speaker 2: I feel like they can. They can PG up a
Speaker 2: little bit.
Speaker 3: You know, good point, Taylor, you get two picks, two picks,
Speaker 3: all right?
Speaker 4: I am going to go with shovel Night. I know
Speaker 4: he's an assist trophy, but I feel like this chance
Speaker 4: that they could mainline him as a main character and
Speaker 4: then my uh and he's obviously a newcomer my next
Speaker 4: pick and stuff. Because I wasn't sure if I should
Speaker 4: do her or him for characters she'd been doing her
Speaker 4: because she was cut from a previous Smash Brother's game,
Speaker 4: supposed to be a tag switching character with Diddy Kong
Speaker 4: and Brawl. I'm gonna go Dixie Kong. I feel like
Speaker 4: maybe they could throw her back in. It's possible.
Speaker 1: I was maybe gonna grab her next, you guys, Dixie
Speaker 1: Kong scorpions stealing them from my nose here.
Speaker 2: And Dixie is in Bonans as well too, so that
Speaker 2: could be a good fit. I bet she'll be in
Speaker 2: the movies. It's what it's the difference between Dixie and Tiny, Like,
Speaker 2: I know, like Tiny, they're different characters, but like why.
Speaker 1: Is like from Don Kong Country games. Tiny Kong's only
Speaker 1: appearance is Don Kong sixty four.
Speaker 2: Like, why didn't they make her? Why didn't they make Tiny.
Speaker 4: Dixie Kong's younger sister and as the cousin of Kitty Kong,
Speaker 4: Chunky Kong, and Donkey Kong.
Speaker 2: Okay, get Candy con in this game. That's who I'm
Speaker 2: That's what I'm looking for. But chick on me and
Speaker 2: Dylon's sixty four retrospective, I'm just gonna be cheap and
Speaker 2: easy here. I'm just gonna pick sub Zero because they
Speaker 2: usually bring these people in too. There's two street fighter characters.
Speaker 2: There was two missing another one. What are something?
Speaker 4: Rick?
Speaker 2: Yeah, thank you? They just usually do that. I actually so,
Speaker 2: I love Scorpion and sub Zero. I wouldn't want them
Speaker 2: to do that. I would like them to pick one
Speaker 2: or the other. I think they'd still pick Scorpion, but
Speaker 2: I could also just see them going. These are the
Speaker 2: two most popular characters for Mortal Kombat. People love them,
Speaker 2: and it's the thing of like they play similarly enough
Speaker 2: that they can keep those like the base models the
Speaker 2: same and then they're hours or special tax change that up,
Speaker 2: but then it's not overhaul. Where if youve got like
Speaker 2: lu Can and there Johnny Cage or raidin I think
Speaker 2: Rain would actually be the choice. I think Raid would
Speaker 2: be really cool because I is thereyone Dylan smashed. It's
Speaker 2: like heavy on electricity rocking right now.
Speaker 1: Really, Pickman's got a little bit in there. Captain Falcon's
Speaker 1: kind of like the electricity guy, but he's just a guy,
Speaker 1: so it doesn't really make Pikachu, I guess is the
Speaker 1: big one.
Speaker 2: I suppose you, yeah, and he's on my list. These
Speaker 2: were only two MK characters. That's person I love Scorpion
Speaker 2: Raid because I think raydon fulfills a power type that's
Speaker 2: not in there. But I just think they would go
Speaker 2: easy if MK's in there, go you know, do the
Speaker 2: fan favorites go that way? They have different costumes, So yeah,
Speaker 2: I'm throwing in sub zero as well.
Speaker 5: I like it.
Speaker 2: Hurt them.
Speaker 3: Okay, this is what I do my little Google search for.
Speaker 3: But I'm gonna take I'm gonna take Joker from the
Speaker 3: Persona series. There's a new game on the horizon. I
Speaker 3: feel like he isn't necessary, Like he's not a Nintendo character, right,
Speaker 3: like that would be a third party Well yeah, it
Speaker 3: just feels like a close franchise to Nintendo. Obviously he
Speaker 3: was already in the game before, and uh yeah, I
Speaker 3: don't know. I'm I don't really know much about that series,
Speaker 3: but I know it's very popular. It's popular enough that
Speaker 3: we're getting a sixth title now, and it's like, yeah, man,
Speaker 3: like the people must be really loving this character for sure,
Speaker 3: So yeah.
Speaker 1: Yeah, good timing of that new game get announced.
Speaker 4: Again.
Speaker 1: We don't know when Smash six is gonna happen, but
Speaker 1: I think that's a good pick. I'm gonna grab I'm
Speaker 1: gonna grab a newcomer Nintendo character. I'm gonna grab Bandana
Speaker 1: waddle Lee. The reason being on this is, uh, you know,
Speaker 1: Zach Rye, creator of Kirby, played or made many Kirby games,
Speaker 1: and if you specifically, look what did Zack Rye do
Speaker 1: after Brawl? He went and made Kittkers Uprising, and then
Speaker 1: what happened to Smash four. He added like a whole
Speaker 1: bunch of Kiddikers stuff, He had two new characters. He
Speaker 1: had it like a new stage, all these items, tons
Speaker 1: and tons of crap, a bunch of as his trophies,
Speaker 1: just jammed kid a Christ down throats. Even though it's
Speaker 1: not a huge series, and I think, you know, Kirby
Speaker 1: hasn't had a new character since Brawl in two thousand
Speaker 1: and six. Ben Dana Walde, he makes kind of the
Speaker 1: most sense as the next character to get add in there.
Speaker 1: I think he's just hot off making Kirby air Riders,
Speaker 1: and so I think maybe he'll incorporate that in some way.
Speaker 1: There'll be the move set, you can get different machines
Speaker 1: with Ben Dan and Wattle d He got the spear.
Speaker 1: He was a co protagonist character in Forgotten Land, which
Speaker 1: I feel like soldierly well and make it might get
Speaker 1: a sequel in the switch to era. So I think
Speaker 1: this is the next character that makes most sense for Kirby,
Speaker 1: and that's a very near and dear two Sacari series,
Speaker 1: So I'm gonna go with Bandana Wattle d.
Speaker 3: I love it until I forgot about that character until yeah, good,
Speaker 3: good good.
Speaker 1: I love the guy too. I mean, no, no character
Speaker 1: has a spear in Smash, so give you know, let's
Speaker 1: put a spear character in there.
Speaker 4: Okay, there you go.
Speaker 1: I guess technically Bile uses a spear for like two attacks,
Speaker 1: and then I don't think you guys are gonna take
Speaker 1: any of those, so I might leave them in the
Speaker 1: book here. And I'm just gonna continue my trend. I'm
Speaker 1: gonna go for another third party returner, which one do
Speaker 1: I grab next? I'm gonna grab Bayonetta next, which is
Speaker 1: a weird series where it kind of comes, comes, and goes.
Speaker 1: The reason I think Bayonetta is safe is because back
Speaker 1: in Smash four, when that game came out, they did
Speaker 1: a ballot, who do you want us to add as
Speaker 1: a DLC character? They everyone went to the internet. Everyone
Speaker 1: can vote on which character they want to add to
Speaker 1: the roster among all these requested characters in the world,
Speaker 1: Bayonetta won that, and I think that's the their one
Speaker 1: point of evidence of like, which character to people actually
Speaker 1: wanted this game. When it came down to voting, people
Speaker 1: wanted Bayonetta, and I think for that reason they'll keep
Speaker 1: bringing her back over and over and over again, even
Speaker 1: if the series is kind of less relevant now than
Speaker 1: it was when she got added. Potentially it did have
Speaker 1: a new game in the Switch era still and got
Speaker 1: like a spin off or something. But yeah, I'm gonna
Speaker 1: grab Bayonetta. And but that were a quarter their way
Speaker 1: through the list, and maybe I'll do a you know,
Speaker 1: just quick shout out to some wonderful Patrion proter seres
Speaker 1: known as Aaron Brad and April Darkness, Jack Grant, Superad,
Speaker 1: Mike Tgdal, I'm six nine a k and Our alf
Speaker 1: heidalgo any Kravitz, Cocktail, Lay John with no age, Sam
Speaker 1: Greene on him, Matthew Fletcher, thank you all for supporting
Speaker 1: the show. Gonna keep the plug short day because this
Speaker 1: is uh, we got a lot of drafting more to do,
Speaker 1: so I'm just gonna kick it to a quick ad
Speaker 1: break and we'll be right back. Hello, we are back,
Speaker 1: Kirkland Patzer. It is your sixth pick.
Speaker 3: Okay, lucky number six, I'm gonna take a Street Fighter character.
Speaker 3: I'm gonna take chun Lee here as a new character
Speaker 3: fan favorite amongst the Street Fighter fans. I'm assuming, yeah,
Speaker 3: a big ban at a crowd, get her movie here
Speaker 3: pretty soon. Obviously, I would assume that's gonna be some
Speaker 3: distance between that and this game release, but I mean
Speaker 3: the character is always very relevant, So yeah, that's my
Speaker 3: pick new character.
Speaker 2: All right, he took her? How many to go the
Speaker 2: same route you're going, I'm gonna throw in just like
Speaker 2: there's two so let's say they get two more people.
Speaker 2: I'm gonna go Zangiefe.
Speaker 5: Uh.
Speaker 2: He's got a good look. He's a legendary character. I
Speaker 2: think just because of the size, you'll know him the
Speaker 2: second you see him, kirkle in the second search him up.
Speaker 2: It's like, Okay, this guy's been around forever. I've seen
Speaker 2: him requested a few times. So yeah, I'm just gonna
Speaker 2: throw him in there. I definitely was gonna go chun
Speaker 2: Lee next, but uh, this is a good backup, so yeah,
Speaker 2: I'll go with Yeah. I just think there's maybe one
Speaker 2: other from this list I could maybe pick, and maybe
Speaker 2: I still will if I run out of people, but yeah,
Speaker 2: I feel like if one if I think chan Lee,
Speaker 2: if they go a street fighter, I think Chun Lee
Speaker 2: would be the next one, and I I'm just sticking
Speaker 2: with that. They'll keep doing this in pairs for these fighters,
Speaker 2: So yeah, that's where I'm going.
Speaker 1: Nice, all right, Taylor, Two picks, two picks.
Speaker 4: I am. I'm feeling I'm feeling good about this pick
Speaker 4: because I feel like we've got your game coming out,
Speaker 4: you know, and all these all these things kind of
Speaker 4: eating towards it introduction into the Mario movie that universe.
Speaker 4: So I think I'm gonna go with my wing Crystal
Speaker 4: and go with Lady Crystal from Star Fox. I think
Speaker 4: she'd be a fantastic addition to ut you're taking.
Speaker 2: We're getting adventures too. I don't care what anyone says.
Speaker 2: It's happening like there's some there's gotta be some talks
Speaker 2: going on, you know, but I would love it. She's
Speaker 2: in the game, right, She's a sist trophy, So I
Speaker 2: would love the wife of Star Fox.
Speaker 4: And I mean if they if they time it out
Speaker 4: well with them doing uh star fucks adventures to you know,
Speaker 4: I mean, like, hey, Crystal's right there, let's let's throw
Speaker 4: in the smash.
Speaker 1: So I wanted to pick a Star Fox character just
Speaker 1: because it seems like that series coming back in a big,
Speaker 1: bad way. But I just didn't know what to pick.
Speaker 1: So I'm glad you did it for me because it'd
Speaker 1: be cool.
Speaker 4: I've always wanted that is available.
Speaker 2: I think that is. Yeah, that is the pick, because
Speaker 2: there's no the other characters.
Speaker 1: Aren't that No, there a new character in the new game.
Speaker 1: But it's like, sure it's too generic to pick that.
Speaker 4: Yeah, Taylor, but the next one, oh, that's a tough one.
Speaker 4: That's a tough one. I'm gonna be I'm gonna be
Speaker 4: bold with this just because I I really enjoyed the
Speaker 4: rumors that I've heard surrounding it. So I'm just gonna
Speaker 4: put it on the draft list here, make it official.
Speaker 4: I'm gonna go master Chief. I've heard people talking about
Speaker 4: a long time. I've seen the fake videos of it.
Speaker 4: People have modeled him into, you know, versions of it
Speaker 4: and whatnot. So I think maybe there's a chance you
Speaker 4: could see it we already got Steve and Minecraft in there,
Speaker 4: and if they keep going along the lines of Xbox
Speaker 4: characters and their little partnership going on, then maybe we'll
Speaker 4: we'll see something.
Speaker 2: It's tough. A year ago, I would have said absolutely,
Speaker 2: But now the way Xbox already been acting again with
Speaker 2: the new seal, like we're taking everything back, we'ren exclusive.
Speaker 2: I feel like the time was with Phil and now
Speaker 2: I don't know if that time's there anyway. I don't
Speaker 2: get me wrong, I don't think this is exclusive. Thing's
Speaker 2: gonna work. It's like Xbox is just do a still.
Speaker 2: But I would like it for the idea of he's
Speaker 2: in that late nineties two thousands sort of you know,
Speaker 2: not a mascot per se, but in that iconic realm.
Speaker 2: He's in there. So I would like it for you
Speaker 2: and other people. I have no interest in master Chief, but.
Speaker 1: I would love it so much great, I imagine, you know,
Speaker 1: I feel by on its possibilities though.
Speaker 2: Yeah, and that's what changed. A year ago. I would
Speaker 2: have been like, oh, that's a great pick down, Like
Speaker 2: I don't know, but I'm gonna go one where I
Speaker 2: go I don't know, but I want him on the roster,
Speaker 2: and just because I know he could be in the
Speaker 2: bench for Taylor if he's like, I don't got anyone else,
Speaker 2: I'm just gonna go with wallaweg. I'm gonna hope it
Speaker 2: finally fucking happens and we know there is gonna be
Speaker 2: a new Mario character. I'm covering my bases with this
Speaker 2: one that if it is not Pauline, hopefully it's wallow
Speaker 2: Hopefully it's just the meme of he couldn't even make
Speaker 2: it in the Smash Ultimate just bleeds through that dev team, like, Okay,
Speaker 2: we should really put him in here, like let's and
Speaker 2: they know what they should do. They should make him
Speaker 2: the last character announced for that game, like just to
Speaker 2: really string us along. That's the character now, Nintendo want Whise.
Speaker 2: I want him the most. He is you're talking about Pauline.
Speaker 2: He's in so many of the other games, it makes
Speaker 2: no sense. The only thing I have to think is
Speaker 2: like zach aright just does not like Wallawigi. Like he
Speaker 2: looks at him, He's like that motherfucker, Like that's the
Speaker 2: only way I could because there's people that have come
Speaker 2: from the modern world that should not be before him
Speaker 2: in my opinion, So I'm taking WALLAWEGI making his debut
Speaker 2: smash a smash six. I don't know what they're gonna call,
Speaker 2: but just not not No. Four in the title or six.
Speaker 1: I you know, I thought because he didn't go earlier
Speaker 1: that he was not gonna go at all, so that
Speaker 1: was kind of saving him for the last last round. Pick. I.
Speaker 1: I think it's pretty likely, Ish, I think I think
Speaker 1: it's a great pick. I think it's a great pick.
Speaker 3: Don't give me Hope, Kirkland.
Speaker 1: Okay, I'm gonna take.
Speaker 3: I'm gonna take a Castlevania character here, to my knowledge,
Speaker 3: one that has never been in the games before. I'm
Speaker 3: gonna take Alucard.
Speaker 1: That's how you say his name, the son of Dracula.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I don't know. I really like his character. Just look.
Speaker 3: I think he looks awesome. It's the sword wheeler, very
Speaker 3: easy move set to add in there. We have so
Speaker 3: many sword fighters and just someone new from Castle Vania.
Speaker 3: Maybe it's a maybe it's a stretch, but yeah, that's
Speaker 3: what I gonna call it.
Speaker 1: Okay, Uh, you guys have all picked a lot of
Speaker 1: street fighter characters, a bunch of newcomers. But I'm just
Speaker 1: gonna go for the what I believe to be easy
Speaker 1: three pointers. I'm gonna grab Ken Anry you here as
Speaker 1: returning characters.
Speaker 2: Respectful, Right, you got the double pick, you can't.
Speaker 3: Yeah, the same move set, you know, that's like a combo.
Speaker 2: Yeah, the situation that'd be interesting. Okay, they're not both
Speaker 2: in the game, but they aren't together.
Speaker 3: You know, it's like Squamy and sub Zero they do
Speaker 3: that too. Yeah.
Speaker 1: I do feel like, you know, as you mentioned, like,
Speaker 1: it seems like every all these these traditional tut fighters
Speaker 1: are gonna get a new character every it seems like
Speaker 1: in Smash, and I actually think the most likely is
Speaker 1: what you guys are saying, Like, I think chun Lee
Speaker 1: is like a really likely one, for example, But I
Speaker 1: think for that reason, like they're gonna put you in
Speaker 1: in there and there clones of each other, So it's
Speaker 1: just if you're gonna get one, you pretty much got
Speaker 1: both unless they separate the characters, which they won't because
Speaker 1: that's how they are in their original games as well.
Speaker 1: So yeah, uh, kind of boring easy picks, But I
Speaker 1: think I think street Fighters just kind of locked in
Speaker 1: and Smash as well from from here on out. So yeah,
Speaker 1: right back to you, Kirkland little counter attack.
Speaker 3: Take that counter attack, Okay, I will uh. I mean
Speaker 3: you just threw a two for I'll throw a two
Speaker 3: for in here. Also, I'm gonna I'm gonna keep Simon
Speaker 3: in this uh in this uh yeah roster back to bass. Yeah, absolutely,
Speaker 3: I feel like that is probably a safe bet. Castlevania
Speaker 3: has that new title out right now, and I know
Speaker 3: they have like that animated show.
Speaker 1: I don't know if there's a lot of stuff for
Speaker 1: Caslvania right now.
Speaker 2: Ye.
Speaker 3: Yeah, so it's and I mean he's like the character
Speaker 3: I feel like from that franchise. So yeah, yep, could pick.
Speaker 2: All right. He's been in and around the games, lots
Speaker 2: of things going on, very popular franchise, but not playable.
Speaker 2: Just want to make sure because he's one of these
Speaker 2: characters that not Francis I enjoy. But I just assume
Speaker 2: he must be playful, right, because I wouldn't be into him.
Speaker 2: Not really. I'm gonna say, uh, the big bad booty
Speaker 2: whatever Animally is Tom Nook is going to make his
Speaker 2: debut as a playable character. I think that Animal crossing
Speaker 2: hype has been like, might be like, hey, put a
Speaker 2: couple more of these guys in there. You know, people
Speaker 2: love these guys, guys with a Z weird like that.
Speaker 1: I don't know if tom Nook, I don't know what
Speaker 1: his orientation.
Speaker 2: It had had, so that's why it said it sounded
Speaker 2: like that. But yeah, tom Nook, I just feel I
Speaker 2: just I don't know.
Speaker 1: There's not enough gay representation in Smash, so I agree
Speaker 1: with that.
Speaker 2: There isn't and tom Nook maybe he is, and uh,
Speaker 2: then he's gonna be in here for Smash six. I'm
Speaker 2: going tom Nook, great pick.
Speaker 1: I was again high on my list.
Speaker 3: Yeah, his character name is just gay tom Nook, extra
Speaker 3: poic Travis.
Speaker 2: Tom Nook and then as an echo fighter Gate just
Speaker 2: just Shroy's Nintendo stocked like you can't sell this game,
Speaker 2: like no, no, no trust us.
Speaker 3: And because he most played character in all competitions.
Speaker 1: Yeah, he's somehow the best tournament character.
Speaker 2: What do we do? People want to remove him. It's
Speaker 2: kind of offensive, but like everyone loves them, like, I
Speaker 2: don't know.
Speaker 1: Yeah, to give me those people invent like tactics around
Speaker 1: his name, like the gay Slide and the gay Smash.
Speaker 1: That's good stuff. Taylor Field for two picks up to
Speaker 1: your ninth pick. Here, we're just shovel nighting through.
Speaker 4: This, Okay, I want to go with confirmed that none
Speaker 4: of you guys have actually picked it.
Speaker 2: You have not.
Speaker 4: I'm gonna go ray Man Ray.
Speaker 2: And I thought about it. I thought about that remake,
Speaker 2: you know, I played.
Speaker 1: That's gonna get canceled, but I think I'll be there.
Speaker 4: He's going. He's gonna be in Smash though, that's for sure.
Speaker 1: And then that's a good pick, highly requested from people.
Speaker 1: I've seen fake videos of people putting him in there.
Speaker 2: He fits very well, so it's yeah, if it's that
Speaker 2: nineties maskot again to that era, so he'd be he'd
Speaker 2: be another kind of legend put in there, so perfect.
Speaker 4: We love legends, love legends to be a legends. This
Speaker 4: is one that just kind of came up through my
Speaker 4: research and I've never played her game, but it seems
Speaker 4: like a lot of people want her into appear and
Speaker 4: Smash Brother's talking about the stage development that could be
Speaker 4: involved with this character. Whatnot. I'm gonna throw Cooking Mama
Speaker 4: in there.
Speaker 1: I so badly want that to happen. I love Cooking
Speaker 1: Mama back on the way. I would I would love
Speaker 1: that so much.
Speaker 3: I feel like if that happens. She'd be like an
Speaker 3: Isabelle character that I just despise playing against, Like she
Speaker 3: just has some weird food. I just can't play around.
Speaker 2: It's just too powerful, big load, And don't forget you
Speaker 2: got a lorma. When your first match is a will
Speaker 2: for rememory, you play against Jessica and Cooking Mama. So
Speaker 2: that was a versaal match. It's just a cheetd that's okay.
Speaker 4: Oh shit, that was Cooking Mama.
Speaker 2: One of my favorite, if you want to look it up,
Speaker 2: one of my favorite Gauntlet thumbnails ever. For some reason,
Speaker 2: just the foes Jessica and Tara took that day just
Speaker 2: work perfectly with the Cooking Mama cover. It looks incredible.
Speaker 2: Some Gaunt covers ify some works of art, and that's
Speaker 2: one of them right there.
Speaker 1: So I before you go, Travis, I'll just say quickly,
Speaker 1: you guys have also fulfilled your at least five newcomer things,
Speaker 1: so you can you can keep picking them, of course,
Speaker 1: but you've already your minimum amount. I still have to
Speaker 1: pick at least two more, but you guys are.
Speaker 4: Good to go.
Speaker 1: Just one pat you know, okay?
Speaker 4: Thank you?
Speaker 1: Over you Treves? Is it big?
Speaker 2: Oh ye it is, I'm gonna pick I didn't think
Speaker 2: about this, but Ta just said I thought he was
Speaker 2: going there, So I don't want anyone to get that
Speaker 2: not on my list. I don't know it would work,
Speaker 2: but you know what, I'm gonna throw her in there
Speaker 2: because I'm digging this nineties esthetic, nineties icons. She's got
Speaker 2: multiple games coming up. Let's get lawer Croft in here.
Speaker 2: Talk about somebody that would be tons of fun, good stage,
Speaker 2: get some more lady power going on, get the guns
Speaker 2: in there, multiple outfits as well too, because how many
Speaker 2: uh like cautions and games are been in So how
Speaker 2: likely do I think this is?
Speaker 3: No?
Speaker 2: I don't know, but when Tay's making that pitch, I
Speaker 2: thought that's where he's going in and it's it's I
Speaker 2: don't think it's super likely, but it's also not like
Speaker 2: completely out of the round possibility. It'd be one that
Speaker 2: would happen. We'd seem to be like, oh yeah, that
Speaker 2: fits like she is a when we're talking about icons,
Speaker 2: lower Croft is one of those you're talking about just
Speaker 2: the look, the second and a smasher. Mario's like run
Speaker 2: around the cave and she my hands with those boots
Speaker 2: and the booty shorts. You go, oh, that's lower Croft right,
Speaker 2: so uh and the green tank top so yeah, I uh,
Speaker 2: I'm selling myself on it. First, it's the I don't know,
Speaker 2: you know what now, I could highly see this happening,
Speaker 2: so lower.
Speaker 1: Croft the two D Yeah, they for the announcement trailer,
Speaker 1: it should be lower Croft like fighting Leon Kennedy and
Speaker 1: you don't know what the trailer is and then they
Speaker 1: drop the smash logo and that would be that would.
Speaker 2: Be sick yeah, with cooking mom in the background, cooking.
Speaker 1: Mommy like talking mister gam watch.
Speaker 3: Like Unreal Engine six just looks like the most beautiful
Speaker 3: game I've ever seen in a live what's up?
Speaker 2: Uh?
Speaker 3: I think you're talking to Emily or something for there
Speaker 3: for a second.
Speaker 2: No, no, no, no, it's a meme online. You're not
Speaker 2: seeing the Mario meme of Unreal Engine six. I'll send
Speaker 2: it to you later, Mario. I'll look, I'll send it
Speaker 2: to you.
Speaker 3: Okay, I'm gonna take uh, I'm gonna take Sora here
Speaker 3: from Kingdom Hearts new title on the Horizon Popular Character
Speaker 3: third Party, so hopefully I get some some three pointers
Speaker 3: there and uh yeah, yeah, it's like less so of
Speaker 3: a PlayStation title. Now, I guess he was already in
Speaker 3: the game, so it doesn't really matter if I'm trying
Speaker 3: to explain how he should make his entry there.
Speaker 4: But yeah, soa.
Speaker 2: I like it.
Speaker 1: I like it quite a lot.
Speaker 3: I feel like I have a lot of sword fighters
Speaker 3: in my list, just a natural you do draw.
Speaker 1: I guess, yeah, all right, I'm gonna grab another sword fighter.
Speaker 1: I'll keep that tame going. I'm gonna grab a hero
Speaker 1: the dragon Quest Rep Smash. You know, it's it's one
Speaker 1: of the most relevant, like series of all times, there's
Speaker 1: JRPG series of all time, fits like aesthetically very well
Speaker 1: in with the Smash thing. You mean, I feel like
Speaker 1: this is a character that's gonna stick around, and because
Speaker 1: it's a little bit generic, you could even like incorporate
Speaker 1: a new dragon Quest characters design into that and just
Speaker 1: like add that aesthetic in there, because there are like
Speaker 1: four generations of dragon Quest heroes that are kind of
Speaker 1: playable within this one character. So it's kind of like,
Speaker 1: you know, Steve from Minecraft, like it's Steve. Then there's
Speaker 1: also was it Alex and like Slenderman and like Zombie,
Speaker 1: like they're all technically Smash characters, even though we only
Speaker 1: think of Steve as like the slot for it. So
Speaker 1: you're gonna grab Hero from Dragon Quest and then, honestly,
Speaker 1: I don't think you guys will. I don't think you
Speaker 1: guys will take that one. Maybe should circle back to
Speaker 1: that one, you know, I just mentioned him. I'll keep
Speaker 1: Steve in there. I'll say that Steve is sticking around Minecraft,
Speaker 1: biggest series, best selling game of all time up there.
Speaker 1: I think they want to keep it in there. It's
Speaker 1: very unique, aesthetically made a bit Splash and Smash ultimate
Speaker 1: by being the most broken character who just wins all
Speaker 1: the tournaments for the competitive scene. Again, it's kind of
Speaker 1: like the Master Chief thing of like this is owned
Speaker 1: by Microsoft and who knows what the f Microsoft's next
Speaker 1: generation is gonna look like. But I think that's an
Speaker 1: easy one to just slip in there, and I think
Speaker 1: they'll kind of want to get him in there, especially
Speaker 1: after it was like a lot of work to get
Speaker 1: that character and just smash to make it work, to
Speaker 1: find a move se that works, and they found one
Speaker 1: that does work very well, and so I think they'll
Speaker 1: want to keep that going. So I will grab Steve, uh,
Speaker 1: you know. Voiced by Jack Black of course. So back
Speaker 1: to you, Kirkland.
Speaker 3: Okay, I'm gonna go Nintendo here. I'm gonna go just
Speaker 3: to make it interesting, I'm gonna go a new Nintendo character.
Speaker 3: I'm gonna take paper Mario.
Speaker 1: I don't think anyone would take that.
Speaker 2: I was just that this whole pitch about like, oh,
Speaker 2: if they had a new Mario, why not add the
Speaker 2: man himself? Yeah.
Speaker 3: Oh, I'm so pissed about that. I was just on
Speaker 3: my tongue and I'm like, no one's taking You guys
Speaker 3: have surprised me. You guys have got some great freaking
Speaker 3: texts tonight.
Speaker 1: It's good stuff that.
Speaker 3: Makes me even happier than then. I got that one.
Speaker 1: Speaks for itself.
Speaker 2: Okay, yeah, I have to rethink. Now, let's hut that guy.
Speaker 2: I can leave for a while. He's kind of a
Speaker 2: meme pick. But if it happens, I'll be happy. Let's
Speaker 2: do it. Let's go cup Head in there. Let's get
Speaker 2: some cool art style. Let's get somebody that's a bit
Speaker 2: more uh wild out there, someone that's a bit newer,
Speaker 2: has a big time following. I think it's kind of
Speaker 2: in that shovel sho shovel Now night realm where I
Speaker 2: don't know if they'd happen at the same time, but
Speaker 2: I think it could be one or the other. It
Speaker 2: could bring a new not really new audience, specially in
Speaker 2: that but usually if we have talked about legendary characters,
Speaker 2: I'm trying to think of who are some of the
Speaker 2: newer IP characters that have gotten the following, and cup
Speaker 2: Heads one of them. So and also just I don't
Speaker 2: play those games, but I'd love to see the style
Speaker 2: and even a level of smash. Yeah, I think that
Speaker 2: that's almost more selling point than me.
Speaker 1: And the music is great, even just getting that soundcheck
Speaker 1: in there.
Speaker 2: Okay, that's cool. Yeah, so that's good. But yeah, to me,
Speaker 2: like the stage is what I even won more cup
Speaker 2: but yeah, I'll sell you cup Bet in there.
Speaker 1: So I don't know if you know this, Travis, but
Speaker 1: cup Heads in there as a ME fighter costume right now.
Speaker 1: I don't know that already. That's a good sign because
Speaker 1: there's President like Daisy King, k Rule Isabelle like some
Speaker 1: other characters have like started as a me costume and
Speaker 1: then got upgraded to full roster before. So yeah, Cupheads
Speaker 1: already in there to some extent.
Speaker 2: So I love that development.
Speaker 3: There's second games coming out too, aren't they, Or there's
Speaker 3: like that they just announced. I think yeah, yeah, and
Speaker 3: there's like a there's a two D or like a
Speaker 3: pixel Art one, and I think like a full Fledge
Speaker 3: game that they announced.
Speaker 1: So I think that's a really good pick. I could
Speaker 1: say that. Second, technically, there's never been an indie character,
Speaker 1: so and shovel Knight and Cup had have like been
Speaker 1: the closest you guys have grabbed those. I hope. I
Speaker 1: hope the next mash game has like an indie character
Speaker 1: in there, and I think like the two most likely ones,
Speaker 1: So that'd be really cool.
Speaker 2: Okay, does uh does Kirkland? What if they does Kirkland
Speaker 2: get a point for Toad if they put Captain Toad
Speaker 2: in there?
Speaker 3: I just want to clarify that's a different character. As
Speaker 3: far as I'm were, I don't even know who the Captain.
Speaker 2: Toad is and you'll find out in a couple of years.
Speaker 4: So I can pick Captain Toad then, and I could
Speaker 4: pick Captain you.
Speaker 1: Can, I mean, Toad's worth Toad at These are all
Speaker 1: different Toads.
Speaker 4: You know. Yeah, I'm not gonna pick Captain Toad.
Speaker 3: You can have I don't know who Captain Toad is.
Speaker 4: You can put movies or something.
Speaker 2: No, there's some game, great game.
Speaker 1: It's a really great puzzle puzzle game from the wi
Speaker 1: U era.
Speaker 2: But isn't the same Toad as the guy that with Mario.
Speaker 3: He's a red toad with an oversized backpack and a
Speaker 3: head lamp, but.
Speaker 1: He the same to The gimmick with Captain Toad is
Speaker 1: that his thing is that he can't jump, and Smash
Speaker 1: is a very jumpy game, so I don't I don't
Speaker 1: know what that would look like, but they can.
Speaker 3: Make a little I can't really jump either.
Speaker 1: I mean you're there's a lot of characters that can't
Speaker 1: do traditional Smash things and they find a way. So yeah,
Speaker 1: either you have two picks.
Speaker 4: Oh it's me, It's me, Okay, I am gonna go
Speaker 4: with Just make sure nobody picked this one. I'm pretty
Speaker 4: sure no one did. I'm gonna go Bomberman. That's a
Speaker 4: game that I've played with Rubent a whole bunch. Is
Speaker 4: a heck of a good time. Really really enjoy it.
Speaker 4: Uh And I think he's he is an assist trophy actually,
Speaker 4: and they have the meat Broller costume in there too.
Speaker 4: That's pretty sweet. And next, I'm gonna go with Zero
Speaker 4: from the Mega Man universe because he's also an assist
Speaker 4: Trophy and spirit.
Speaker 3: I love Zero. There's not enough Zero representation. That character
Speaker 3: is so badass.
Speaker 4: Mm hmm. Good pick that's me.
Speaker 3: Now that's Crouse, okay.
Speaker 2: Ah, Yeah, the bomb that sucked because I was definitely
Speaker 2: going there. So I'll go to the guy that's next
Speaker 2: because I don't think he would pop up on your list,
Speaker 2: but I feel like he fits in. Sometimes they just
Speaker 2: go with those like to me, with like Bayanetta and
Speaker 2: some of these characters not characters I would have added
Speaker 2: in the Smash, you know, sorry, Kirk, with more of
Speaker 2: the anime realm. I just think it just breaks my
Speaker 2: mind when it comes to Smash what I grew up with, right,
Speaker 2: But that's fine. That's where we are. So let's get
Speaker 2: Dante in here from Devil May Cry. Legendary character, been around,
Speaker 2: He's a fighter, so it just kind of fits with
Speaker 2: that aesthetic, especially if they are fighters. That's why even
Speaker 2: lower CRAFFI felt a little bit better if their primary
Speaker 2: action if THEO game is to beat things up, well
Speaker 2: smashes the place for them. Character that goes back and
Speaker 2: kind of stoke on some that nostalgia as well. Hopefully
Speaker 2: they give him the best look and not the look
Speaker 2: he's been in recent years. But yeah, I'll go Dante
Speaker 2: from Devil's May Cry and again some cool stages music.
Speaker 2: It's etcetera.
Speaker 1: There, so good pick, good.
Speaker 2: Pick, my friend.
Speaker 3: Okay, I've been swinging a lot tonight. I'm debating going
Speaker 3: down a ground level here, getting some, getting some some
Speaker 3: simple pickups.
Speaker 2: Drown in the waters down here, you can do deep
Speaker 2: for you.
Speaker 3: I'm not drowning. I'm just cannonballing forgetting my water wings.
Speaker 3: They can't bring the water wings with me. But how
Speaker 3: safe do I want to go?
Speaker 2: Dangerously?
Speaker 3: I love that little head snap. I'm gonna take fuck,
Speaker 3: I'm gonna do it. I'm gonna be the first person
Speaker 3: to go boring. I'm gonna take Mario. I have paper
Speaker 3: Mario Mario. Yeah, yeah, exactly. It could be close, and
Speaker 3: I feel like maybe some of these one pointers might
Speaker 3: make a difference in the long run. Well, we'll see.
Speaker 1: They cut Mario. They don't add paper Mario, but they
Speaker 1: add like metal Mario or something stupid instead.
Speaker 3: I'm not supporting this franchise. Anymore.
Speaker 1: If they do that, I will. You know, we're getting
Speaker 1: very low on third party. We have six left that
Speaker 1: haven't been grabbed. I'm just gonna grab two more here
Speaker 1: because points are decent on these. I'm gonna grab Kazia
Speaker 1: from Tekan. I don't really care about this character. I
Speaker 1: don't really love him and Smash to be honest, but
Speaker 1: I think Tecan's a big fighting game franchise. It's still
Speaker 1: getting new releases. Sakari obviously loves it. There's a lot
Speaker 1: of Karen love putting that move set. I think we'll
Speaker 1: keep Kazi around this one. I feel for some reason
Speaker 1: that he is gonna get cut and it's gonna be
Speaker 1: really sad because I think he just fits so well
Speaker 1: in Smash. But I'm going with my Heartlean's I'm not
Speaker 1: gonna grab Banjo because I hope Banjo is just a
Speaker 1: character in Smash for the rest of the time. So yeah,
Speaker 1: I'm gonna grab Kasia and Banjo Kazui, I hope.
Speaker 2: So he bet Banjo will hurt me if I only
Speaker 2: got him in the one game.
Speaker 6: So that's back to me already form here, Uh.
Speaker 1: Dr Mario, folks, I know, I know, but k returned.
Speaker 3: It's something he take. Did somebody take him already?
Speaker 2: Obviously?
Speaker 3: I don't think he's gonna be in this. I think
Speaker 3: I'm for getting paid Mario. I'm not getting doctor Mario.
Speaker 1: Also, Baby Mario, get that.
Speaker 3: I think I'm gonna take.
Speaker 2: Man.
Speaker 3: I think I'm gonna take not fuck it. Okay, I'm
Speaker 3: gonna take seph Off here the Final Fantasy seven.
Speaker 2: Interesting, that'd be cool. That'd be cool. I don't think
Speaker 2: they do it, but I would love that. That'd be that.
Speaker 2: That'd be a very high pick. I want my ring
Speaker 2: Wing or whatever.
Speaker 3: He's he was an ultimate, wasn't he? Yes?
Speaker 1: Yeah, okay, I don't think Travis knows that name.
Speaker 2: That's playable.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 2: Maybe I'm thinking he's going Final Fantasy seven? Right?
Speaker 5: Oh?
Speaker 2: Do you gotta pay for him though?
Speaker 1: Yeah?
Speaker 2: Oh that's why. Yeah, no fun that I'm not paying
Speaker 2: for him. Yeah, halng on that much.
Speaker 3: I kind of forgot about him, honestly, and that's cool. Yeah,
Speaker 3: I remember that he's on the Elephant list. Thanks ck
Speaker 3: Dylan for making this, making.
Speaker 2: This third party. Give me the bass game this time.
Speaker 2: I hope your predictions righty? Then I can play him
Speaker 2: for it.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I think so I think he'll get promoted from
Speaker 3: DLC character to base game.
Speaker 2: It makes sense to that game is still coming out,
Speaker 2: like the Part three. It's popped there right now. So yeah, okay,
Speaker 2: let's go. I'm gonna I don't have him this high up,
Speaker 2: but I just feel like h Taylor with his Xbox bones,
Speaker 2: could always throw him out there. No, he's not just
Speaker 2: an Xbox character, but just the way the company is,
Speaker 2: I'm just gonna throw a Doom Slayer. He kind of
Speaker 2: pops up every year. To do some version of that
Speaker 2: again at Doom stage would be chaotic and amazing. Thing
Speaker 2: could pull up, pulled it off. So I just don't
Speaker 2: want to. I've had a couple of picks where I'm like, ah,
Speaker 2: that's not gonna come up, and then it's happened. So
Speaker 2: you know what, Doomslay. I feel like that's a bit
Speaker 2: more on your radar versus a few of these other
Speaker 2: newer people that I.
Speaker 1: Have currently a me costume, so already yeah, precedent for it.
Speaker 2: Yeah, so Doomslayer, and I feel more confident about that
Speaker 2: than I'm not trying to shave Tir but just master
Speaker 2: Chief because master Chief is just so affiliate with Xbox
Speaker 2: where Doomslayer is sure they own Doom now, but it's
Speaker 2: not I only people just think Doom and they think
Speaker 2: Xbox now, right. I think he's still kind of in
Speaker 2: that middle. So going with the DS, I am thinking.
Speaker 4: I'm gonna make a safe pick here, and just because
Speaker 4: I I know this person's gonna come back, I'm gonna
Speaker 4: go Luk Carrio, maybe my one and only Pokemon because
Speaker 4: they've never been cut. They've been in every Smash game
Speaker 4: since Brawl, so I think, uh, storm in there, and
Speaker 4: I just love lu Carreo, so lock him on my list.
Speaker 2: Now.
Speaker 4: My either at newcomer pick is I'm gonna go the
Speaker 4: Chibi Robots. This is an old plastic Nintendo figuring here,
Speaker 4: and he's not an a cistrophe or anything, but he is.
Speaker 4: He's an amble figure figures. Isn't he just spirit the spirit?
Speaker 1: I could be wrong. He's like me cost you at
Speaker 1: the very least.
Speaker 4: I think that's right. He is me costume. I've seen that.
Speaker 4: But yeah, this is a This is a It looks
Speaker 4: like a fan favorite cult classic. People want him in Smash.
Speaker 4: So I'll take five points.
Speaker 3: It's good, nice, Okay, I'll take five points my next Taylor,
Speaker 3: so nice again.
Speaker 1: I undermestigated you guys with some of these, some of
Speaker 1: these weirdo picks.
Speaker 2: All right, new pick heart pick. The way I can
Speaker 2: justify it is, Hey, they're remaking Orcher enough time, right,
Speaker 2: that's gonna be successful. It's gonna hell. It's gonna like hotcakes.
Speaker 2: It's gonna sell like hotcakes, Dalim when that happens. What
Speaker 2: do you think they're gonna do next?
Speaker 4: I don't know.
Speaker 2: You tell me they're gonna remake Majora's Mask, the best
Speaker 2: Zelda game of all time. And in tandem, we're finally
Speaker 2: gonna get skul Kid in here. We're gonna get skul Kid.
Speaker 2: He's gonna be up in there. We're gonna get the
Speaker 2: map with all the dark Listen, We're gonna get creepy
Speaker 2: mumbo jumbo. It's gonna happen. This one I feel very
Speaker 2: unlikely on. But you know what, Uh, this is definitely
Speaker 2: so yeah, this is definitely a hard pick. This is
Speaker 2: one more like in the the Walloweigi room, because yeah,
Speaker 2: I am a majority of the mass kid I love
Speaker 2: Orcrean at time, but I'm very excited when we get
Speaker 2: to that remake. That's the game that I spent a
Speaker 2: lot of time in, and that would that's like a
Speaker 2: chicken soup for the soul warm my heart sort of
Speaker 2: picked like if I see skull Kid and that mask,
Speaker 2: hell yeah that that that that mask and look as
Speaker 2: iconic to me? That creep me out as a kid.
Speaker 2: So yeah, skull Kid and we haven't like that sounds
Speaker 2: kind of like donkey because even when we got like
Speaker 2: the Breath of the While and Cheers the Kingdom, it's
Speaker 2: never like all the new characters is like all the
Speaker 2: new looks of them, right, it's not We're not we
Speaker 2: don't have a pluth rub Zeld. The characters go what
Speaker 2: we got, Chici zell that we got?
Speaker 1: It's just a super weak right, it's super weak. Yeah,
Speaker 1: the Zelda representation sucks and smash.
Speaker 2: Actually, so throwing in a skull Kid there.
Speaker 4: Maybe they had the moon from the.
Speaker 1: Tana Bay, but that's the closest you get the moon.
Speaker 2: Yeah, so.
Speaker 1: I I want that to happen. I I don't think
Speaker 1: it's happening, but I want to.
Speaker 3: Okay, back to me here, Oh man, what do I
Speaker 3: do here?
Speaker 5: Ah?
Speaker 1: What do I do here?
Speaker 2: He's in pain?
Speaker 3: I am in pain A little bit. I feel like
Speaker 3: some of the ones that was kind of leaving got
Speaker 3: screwed like a Doode Slayer was like, okay, I could
Speaker 3: save him for later.
Speaker 4: Gone.
Speaker 3: Uh, Steve was gonna be another one that I was
Speaker 3: gonna say, well he's he's off the board. Ah, okay,
Speaker 3: I'm gonna take with my next pick in the Super
Speaker 3: Smash Bros. Six Draft. Fuck it, I'm just gonna take Peach,
Speaker 3: another boring pick. She's gonna be in there. She's got
Speaker 3: to be in there. It's favorite character there. So yeah,
Speaker 3: hopefully I get two points off of Mario. And yeah,
Speaker 3: I mean Heylady, I would say I would go as
Speaker 3: far as that you already have two points, and we
Speaker 3: I mean Taylor took Lucario as his freebie Pokemon over Pikachu's.
Speaker 1: I don't know he's he's cooking something over there, but
Speaker 1: you've got.
Speaker 3: He's been DM and Sacarai.
Speaker 1: All right, you guys took all the good new Mario reps.
Speaker 1: But I want to at least be in the race here.
Speaker 1: Maybe you can see who can get the right one.
Speaker 1: I'm gonna go with one from a remake that happened recently.
Speaker 1: This is a me costume, so there's precedent for it.
Speaker 1: It's a long requested character, more niche character only appeared
Speaker 1: in one game. I'm gonna grab Gino from Super Mario RPG.
Speaker 2: I had him last because I didn't even think you
Speaker 2: would pull Oh my god, it's gonna say as the
Speaker 2: final pick, damn it.
Speaker 1: And then you guys want to hear just an off
Speaker 1: the wall as one. Yes, here's a character who has
Speaker 1: been in every single Smash game invented for the Smash Bros. Series,
Speaker 1: not from another Nintendo franchise, technically playable in Melee as
Speaker 1: a dbug glitch and playable and ultimate for like one
Speaker 1: section in the finale of the game, I'm gonna go
Speaker 1: with the original boss from Super Smash Bros. I'm gonna
Speaker 1: go with Master Hand, who gets promoted to playable character
Speaker 1: status in the next game some way, somehow.
Speaker 2: That'd be great. Yeah, I hope you're right about that one.
Speaker 2: I want that.
Speaker 3: That's a fun pick.
Speaker 1: It'd be cool. Do they have the guts?
Speaker 2: No? Ridley being in there and gives me some hope
Speaker 2: because it's like, you know, that'd be great, and I
Speaker 2: think it should be in a situation then that in
Speaker 2: Smash sixer should be a new bad guy. So that's
Speaker 2: why that bad guy takes out masterhand right, like kind
Speaker 2: of a you know, Thanos versus two.
Speaker 1: I mean that kind of happens in an ultimate a
Speaker 1: little bit. And then that's why you get to play
Speaker 1: his masterhand for a section. Since you get to do that,
Speaker 1: I mean, how far of a step is it to
Speaker 1: have full playable.
Speaker 2: Character testing the waters exactly?
Speaker 1: Yeah, Okay, I like it, Kirklin on your fourteenth.
Speaker 3: A little bit. What version do I take here? Okay?
Speaker 1: By the way, I like your order is Mario seph
Speaker 1: Roth Peet. You just have kind of getting in the
Speaker 1: throttle there.
Speaker 3: Yeah, he's gotta keep those wild dogs away from each other. Okay,
Speaker 3: I'm gonna take a freak here. I'm gonna take a
Speaker 3: a big, licky character. I'm gonna take Boo as a
Speaker 3: playable character in Smash Bros. I was thinking about a
Speaker 3: regular bo I was thinking about taking King Boo, but
Speaker 3: I'm gonna I'm just gonna keep it Boo because I
Speaker 3: feel like King Boo is like too big, and obviously
Speaker 3: they could shrink him down to be like a like
Speaker 3: just a large character like Bowser or Donkey Kong size,
Speaker 3: but like I feel like you would still want to
Speaker 3: keep the ghost element to it, and I just think
Speaker 3: that's more interesting if it's if it is a smaller
Speaker 3: type character. So yeah, I can already kind of picture
Speaker 3: like some of them, Bove said. Obviously, it would be
Speaker 3: kind of a floater to like how Kirby can can
Speaker 3: do that mechanic. I would like to have like an
Speaker 3: invisibility like eye frame thing. I don't know how you
Speaker 3: work that, but he's always, you know, going in and
Speaker 3: out of whatever you would call that invisibility, I guess.
Speaker 2: So I'll say Toad. But if it's if it is
Speaker 2: a Boover's a King Boo, I'm not letting you have
Speaker 2: that point. If it's Toad, Captain Toad, I'd wave it
Speaker 2: Boover's King Boo.
Speaker 4: Yeah.
Speaker 3: No, I'm I'm double down specifically Boo yeah, not King Boo.
Speaker 1: I mean with my sultimate they added Prona plant like
Speaker 1: a generic Mario enemy, So there's.
Speaker 4: Pressing for it.
Speaker 2: Now.
Speaker 1: It's possible, Travis, absolutely.
Speaker 2: Uh, And you just said that. So that's why I'm
Speaker 2: gonna throwing just a cooop of Trooper. I think there's
Speaker 2: a chance it could happen. Green shell, green shell, Yeah,
Speaker 2: the classic green shell, yellow plant, red.
Speaker 3: Shell with wings.
Speaker 1: No, that's that's a paratrooper.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I I was so just That's where I felt
Speaker 2: like Plant being in there was really trolling the walla
Speaker 2: eg community. It felt like that was a personal attack
Speaker 2: against me. Like if the Plant can make it in,
Speaker 2: we can get other stupid Mario characters, and Koopa Troop
Speaker 2: would be the next, like I can legitimately see me.
Speaker 1: That was the theme of Mario Karr World is let's
Speaker 1: get all the stupid Mario characters playable character and then.
Speaker 2: In the same way, don't you say, like, oh, every
Speaker 2: game has you know, a new Mario character, and he
Speaker 2: was the other thing Pokemon character I could see going
Speaker 2: forward them saying now we want every new Mario game
Speaker 2: to have and then or Smash to have an enemy
Speaker 2: type that one counts a Mario character. But just like
Speaker 2: we got planting there, let's get Kopa Trooper. Let's get
Speaker 2: even if it's Boo for cure, I could see for
Speaker 2: the next five years, Let's just throw a random bad
Speaker 2: guy because like people want to play as them, right,
Speaker 2: So uh yeah, doing that?
Speaker 1: I love it. Taylor Field for a doubler here.
Speaker 4: I love these doubles. This just feels it feels right,
Speaker 4: you know, it feels right in my hands. I'm gonna
Speaker 4: go with this one. I'm I'm pitching out there for
Speaker 4: baff of Madison. She said, Burdo, you know what, girls
Speaker 4: making a pretty good comeback. Actually, I think, uh, I
Speaker 4: think that there's a good chance because Conberto is her
Speaker 4: is her go to and Mario party and all that stuff.
Speaker 4: So locker in there.
Speaker 1: My never wasn't in a smash title before, just as
Speaker 1: a background.
Speaker 4: Uh, not even a trophy.
Speaker 1: I don't think like a stage element.
Speaker 4: That's right. Uh, this one, I wasn't sure, but I
Speaker 4: was kind of convinced of drink some research because then
Speaker 4: I saw, Okay, with regards to the Pokemon, you've got
Speaker 4: multiple final form fire types, water types, but grass types
Speaker 4: you only have ivisor you don't have anything else in there.
Speaker 4: So I'm gonna go, uh, Miao sca rada because this
Speaker 4: seems like a very demanded grass type fighter Scarata, Miao Scarata.
Speaker 4: It's a very highly requested uh grass type final form
Speaker 4: fighter one of the Gen nine starter final forms of
Speaker 4: generation Gen nine, but not I which game is.
Speaker 3: One that comes after eight, the one that comes up.
Speaker 4: I believe it. Let I'm pretty sure.
Speaker 1: You just insulting. Yeah, Jen nine, I think that's the
Speaker 1: ninth generation.
Speaker 2: Like al is he laying down.
Speaker 1: Meow scarta, Okay, lock and.
Speaker 2: Load Eah birdo. I kind of thought I had, Like.
Speaker 1: I can picture the smashing ounce mica. Yeah, yeah, he's
Speaker 1: gonna have fun with that one in the booth, I was.
Speaker 2: Ready to throw birdle there just as like an easy,
Speaker 2: just like pass along to get me to the next round.
Speaker 2: So I'm gonna do this here. I'm gonna throw in tails.
Speaker 2: I'm gonna say we get the unfortunate, we want knuckles,
Speaker 2: who want shadows? They're like everyone loves tails. That's the sidekick,
Speaker 2: So full circle for you just talking about them an
Speaker 2: hour ago. Yeah, so I've lost a couple of picks
Speaker 2: along the way. So yeah, tails, welcome back to the crew.
Speaker 2: Part of the ship, part of the crew. So the
Speaker 2: tails come flowery orange fuck.
Speaker 1: I like, I mean, I think maybe there's more room
Speaker 1: for like an interesting move set there over like knuckles
Speaker 1: or shadows. So I actually it's sure I could see
Speaker 1: it happening in the world.
Speaker 2: That's make a red They share same same sound guy,
Speaker 2: same sound tails. Make right, there's a little more tongue
Speaker 2: on it.
Speaker 3: Okay, what you got kirk h already, folks, I'm gonna
Speaker 3: take I don't feel super coughed on this one, but
Speaker 3: I like his look and for that reason, I'm a
Speaker 3: big aesthetics guy, and I'd love to see the sky
Speaker 3: on the roster. I'm gonna take the shyest man himself.
Speaker 3: I'm taking Shy Guy as a playable smash character. Okay,
Speaker 3: mostly riding for the Mario Kart Realm, but uh, fucking
Speaker 3: give him a dag or something. He's basically ghost Face
Speaker 3: at that point, so he could be the Nintendo version
Speaker 3: of ghost Face.
Speaker 2: Ghost Face.
Speaker 3: Especially like you could change the color palettes, you know,
Speaker 3: you could just get like the ghost Face, Like that's
Speaker 3: what everyone would be playing. Yeah, he's just stabbing the
Speaker 3: other members, just so brutal.
Speaker 1: All right, Uh, where do I want to go next year?
Speaker 1: So I'm gonna grab Uh. This is like a character
Speaker 1: from a Nintendo series has has had three games I
Speaker 1: think pretty much died in the DS era. Not super relevant,
Speaker 1: but again, Zachari, like Tom implement these things been an
Speaker 1: assist trophies since Brawl I think I'm gonna grab Isaac
Speaker 1: from Golden Sun. Yeah, kind of a forgotten Intendo franchise. However,
Speaker 1: they did recently add a bunch of these games too Nintendos,
Speaker 1: which online, so probably a lot of people get in
Speaker 1: their first chance to try it out. Character Moose that
Speaker 1: just writes itself. He's got a sword, he's got magic powers,
Speaker 1: he can throw out magical hands, he is an assist trophy.
Speaker 1: He's already like the three D model, looks really cool,
Speaker 1: fits the aesthetic. So yeah, it's a highly requested one,
Speaker 1: though more niche maybe not highest priority, but I could
Speaker 1: see it happening. And I've really struggled with this because again,
Speaker 1: and I do think this next game is gonna have
Speaker 1: a new Pokemon, it's gonna have a new probably Zelda character,
Speaker 1: probably new donkeyng character. But I feel like maybe those
Speaker 1: are characters we don't know about yet, or I don't
Speaker 1: know which one to pick. Fire Emblem is another one
Speaker 1: of those series. And you know, we technically do have
Speaker 1: the name of a lot of these characters from this
Speaker 1: new game, because this recent trailer showed off a bunch
Speaker 1: of them, but it's really hard to snipe which one,
Speaker 1: and I feel like it might be this angel like
Speaker 1: character we see in the trailer that we don't really
Speaker 1: know their name yet. So instead, I'm gonna go for
Speaker 1: one that I think is a no brainer. They should
Speaker 1: have done it by now, and maybe the fact that
Speaker 1: they haven't is like a bad sign for this. But
Speaker 1: I'm gonna grab Anna from Fire Emblem because weirdly, she's
Speaker 1: kind of become like the mascot for the series of
Speaker 1: Martha is kind of a mascot. But Anna is just
Speaker 1: a character who pretty much shows up as a canyon
Speaker 1: in every single game. Sometimes she's playable, sometimes she's just
Speaker 1: a shopkeeper, but she's there. She's been in every game
Speaker 1: like since Awakening, I think Kirkling in like twenty twelve
Speaker 1: or something to some capacity, which I think just shows
Speaker 1: that maybe she's like just one of those kind of
Speaker 1: characters of Fire Emblom who should be in there. And
Speaker 1: since she has fought before and she's playable in some
Speaker 1: of the games, I think it makes sense. So I
Speaker 1: actually likelihood on this one's like kind of low just
Speaker 1: because they haven't done it yet. But who knows, maybe
Speaker 1: maybe they finally pulled the trigger and put Anna in
Speaker 1: the mix.
Speaker 3: That's a good that's a good shout out. I feel
Speaker 3: like that'd be a fun character.
Speaker 1: Too, fun personality too, like a really really cool character.
Speaker 1: I think I think they should definitely get her in there.
Speaker 3: But totally yeah, I definitely wanted to take a firelm character. Also,
Speaker 3: so tough to really nail down one. My mind was
Speaker 3: kind of going like adle guard, but I feel like
Speaker 3: by that point, like we're so far away from Three
Speaker 3: Houses that I think exactly like she is a popular character.
Speaker 3: But still, but fuck it, I'm gonna take a firearm
Speaker 3: character here. I'm gonna take Sothis. You know, she was
Speaker 3: introduced in Three Houses. She's coming back this new game,
Speaker 3: and uh no idea what that move set would really be,
Speaker 3: but fuck it, let's just make it work.
Speaker 1: Really character, I think it's seems it seems like Palatino's
Speaker 1: just like a goddess who don't think is like playable,
Speaker 1: but like boom, it's like a really cool move that
Speaker 1: fits perfectly. I think they could easily do that with
Speaker 1: with her. So that's a that's a great pick, really smart.
Speaker 1: I like that one a lot.
Speaker 3: Back to backfiring. Then yeah, we got a third here,
Speaker 3: Travis Travism bringing on which.
Speaker 2: Guy we do not. All right, I'm gonna safe for
Speaker 2: now because I know Taylor's going I won't he won't
Speaker 2: get this. Give me a Kuma. I'm getting one more
Speaker 2: street fighter in there, because if I don't get Zangief,
Speaker 2: I'm going with a Kuma for the big size of
Speaker 2: the na Jason in the Jason or Roman Rains is
Speaker 2: playing him in the movie. You know, so he's a
Speaker 2: big character type. So yeah, let's go with that for now.
Speaker 1: Cool, Okay, respect it.
Speaker 2: Yeah, just big type. That's why it's in case Zank
Speaker 2: you doesn't get picks, I'm throwing out other people there.
Speaker 1: Taylor sealed two picks up to eighteen. You're almost done.
Speaker 4: Okay, I'm gonna be bold here. I don't think Nah
Speaker 4: you picked a Kuma, so I'm gonna pick a Kira.
Speaker 4: Looks like this character is a Virtual Fighter protagonist. He's
Speaker 4: in a Smash res Ultimate as an assist trophy. Yes,
Speaker 4: looks like in the WEU and the three Yes versions.
Speaker 4: Uh yeah, So recently was there a new game announced?
Speaker 1: I got Summer game Fest. There's a new new game.
Speaker 4: Well, look at that.
Speaker 3: There could be so from the movie. No, No, the
Speaker 3: enemy about that one like what a wild pulled out
Speaker 3: a big crossover.
Speaker 4: So yeah, Kia Yuki, you are in there. And then
Speaker 4: my other one I'm gonna go with is U. It's
Speaker 4: a it goes back and forth between Sega Nintendo, I believe,
Speaker 4: But I'm gonna go with Earthworm Jim. That would be
Speaker 4: a pretty cool character.
Speaker 2: I throw about Jim. There's no chance, and I would.
Speaker 2: I would. You'll see me backflip on a scream at
Speaker 2: the screen if they announce earthIn gym Man. I love em.
Speaker 3: He's like the main character, like Kirby was like the
Speaker 3: main of like the store places Mario. Yeah, kills Mario
Speaker 3: in the opening cinematic.
Speaker 2: Okay, So I'm hopefully gonna make this mine one. I
Speaker 2: was trying to do mostly new fighters, but I've lost
Speaker 2: a couple along the way, so I'm just gonna take
Speaker 2: a returner third party. I'm gonna keep Snake here. I
Speaker 2: love Snake, I love the Boss, love sault Snake, whoever
Speaker 2: I wanna call him. I feel like he's gonna stay
Speaker 2: just with Konami's just they're looking to get Snake around wherever,
Speaker 2: make them popular and.
Speaker 1: Even less shitty recently with stuff.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I like to me, I think the only reason
Speaker 2: they wouldn't he would be in there is because they
Speaker 2: were like, we don't want Snake in this one, right,
Speaker 2: I don't think it would be.
Speaker 1: He's been cut before, right, So I don't.
Speaker 2: Think it's a lock. But I think right now it's
Speaker 2: like an easy go to, and I hope not. I
Speaker 2: love Snake, He's such a fun character. Obviously love him
Speaker 2: place of his games in that series. But yeah, I
Speaker 2: think that if I'm gonna pick one returning character, I'm
Speaker 2: happy for it to be a Snake because still in
Speaker 2: Snake Bang Jos.
Speaker 3: Yeah, okay, Yeah, you wanted to take one, I'm gonna
Speaker 3: take hopefully three three pointers.
Speaker 2: No, that's a three pointer. He's a third party returning character, isn't.
Speaker 3: Okay, Well, hopefully my three characters equip equip equivalate to
Speaker 3: your three points. I'm gonna take Fox McLeod here as
Speaker 3: a as another simple little one pointer, respectable strategy, got
Speaker 3: the matter matter?
Speaker 1: Hey again, I would say guaranteed points. Kirkland's ahead right.
Speaker 2: Now, you know that's fortune fears the bold.
Speaker 1: Uh, let me go ahead, And I feel like this
Speaker 1: could very well be a cut. But I think for
Speaker 1: the sake that it's an Echo Fighter makes it a
Speaker 1: bit higher chance. So Kirkland already grabs Simon Bellemont, who
Speaker 1: I think is highly likely. I think Richter I'm gonna
Speaker 1: grab Rictor just because it's just he could be an
Speaker 1: Echo Fighter. It's easy to program him in there. If
Speaker 1: you get Simon, you're gonna get Richter. So he seems
Speaker 1: less likely of the two, but hey, I'll still take
Speaker 1: it because it's on the board, and for Taylor's sake
Speaker 1: as well. And you know what, I'm just gonna scoop
Speaker 1: up the very last third party. I think with this
Speaker 1: we've cast every single third party from the previous games.
Speaker 1: I'm gonna grab Terry Boguard because the probably the least
Speaker 1: relevant character. No one knew what the character was under
Speaker 1: God announced, but sach Ray obviously loves this series. He
Speaker 1: loves this character. He put it in there, moves that's
Speaker 1: pretty cool, like they put a lot of work into it,
Speaker 1: and for that reason, I think they might just keep
Speaker 1: them around. I think they want a lot of these
Speaker 1: two d fighters represented, as we've talked about already, soa
Speaker 1: I'm gonna grab the one and only Terry Boguard.
Speaker 4: Terry.
Speaker 1: No more third parties. They're all scooped up at least
Speaker 1: for the returning third parts. The board is cleared. That's
Speaker 1: nice to me as your eighteenth pick.
Speaker 3: Okay, okay, well I was getting shipped on for my
Speaker 3: safe picks, So let's get crazy here. I'm kind of
Speaker 3: just throwing the script to the side here. This is
Speaker 3: just like a fun pull. Probably a very very very
Speaker 3: low chance here. I think this would get the crowd
Speaker 3: bumping though, and uh yeah, I get some get some
Speaker 3: get some people clapping, standing ovations. Maybe maybe Dylan gets
Speaker 3: a little excited here. I'm gonna take Krono from Crono
Speaker 3: Trigger here as a new character. I think he's got
Speaker 3: like gilc at Best written all over him. So again,
Speaker 3: this is a big swing. But I don't know, I
Speaker 3: feel like it's a very popular friend, very important franchise.
Speaker 3: Maybe it's a better word to say it. There really
Speaker 3: cool character design. You know, it's got that dragon Quest
Speaker 3: art style, the curator yami all over it, and that
Speaker 3: would be that'd be a cool addition.
Speaker 4: For sure.
Speaker 3: You get some like time power things going into his
Speaker 3: move set. I think that could be really fun.
Speaker 1: I would love that so much. I mean it was
Speaker 1: on the Superintendent originally music. Oh having the music in.
Speaker 3: There, Oh oh, the stages.
Speaker 1: Yeah, that'd be so good. I desperately want that. I
Speaker 1: don't know how likely it is, just because it's like
Speaker 1: the series hasn't been around, but damn I would love
Speaker 1: that so much, all right.
Speaker 2: For some reason. Smash, you know, they fucking love their
Speaker 2: characters with swords. There if one thing and that you
Speaker 2: can say about Smash. There's too many sword characters. But
Speaker 2: you know we're gonna add another one. They're gonna add
Speaker 2: another one multiple times. And why not it be Reu
Speaker 2: from Ninja Guide and our sword character. I actually like
Speaker 2: to play some speed something, right.
Speaker 3: Is there real from Street.
Speaker 1: I have Street Fighter?
Speaker 2: Yeah? Yeah, well doesn't matter, you know, they'll they'll figure
Speaker 2: that out later on. And maybe maybe that Street Fight
Speaker 2: guy might not be there though, right, he could be gone?
Speaker 2: So what one were you from? Another one? You know?
Speaker 2: He is?
Speaker 4: He I am?
Speaker 1: This is a highly requested character in the in the
Speaker 1: fan base for sure's.
Speaker 2: He eyes he uh yeah, gonna go he is?
Speaker 3: I I see, I see your vision.
Speaker 2: Yeah, there's guy and let's lock it in big fun title.
Speaker 1: I Play's come back recently a couple of new games.
Speaker 1: It's good.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I like it.
Speaker 2: Thank you.
Speaker 1: I kind of forgot him, but I think it's a
Speaker 1: really good one.
Speaker 2: You're not gonna forget when he smashes down to Smash six.
Speaker 4: You know he is?
Speaker 2: I I is he.
Speaker 1: I couldn't decided better myself, Taylor watch stuff.
Speaker 4: Oh this is tricky, tricky. I'm gonna go with uh
Speaker 4: number nineteen. I'm gonna go with mid Now and Charlie Princess.
Speaker 4: I feel like she's been intertwined. This is a Sis
Speaker 4: Trophy all that kind of stuff, and I feel like, yeah,
Speaker 4: maybe maybe maybe there's a chance she pops in here.
Speaker 1: But for my last pick, this is your nineteenth pick,
Speaker 1: so you get one more for this.
Speaker 4: I got one more. Oh fuck, look at that.
Speaker 2: Now.
Speaker 4: I know obviously, Dylan, your first pick was Leon Kennedy.
Speaker 4: That's right. Uh, did anyone because I'm not seeing it here,
Speaker 4: did anyone pick.
Speaker 2: Wesker? No, you're gonna have Wesker.
Speaker 4: Let's throw Westerer in there. If Leon's in there, maybe
Speaker 4: a westcir will appear too.
Speaker 3: Okay, I was trying to think there is an evil
Speaker 3: TV show that version.
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, I get him in there.
Speaker 4: Yeah, Alice.
Speaker 3: I thought about that because Alice.
Speaker 2: Get out of here, shush up, shush up. Yeah she
Speaker 2: she is. I I think I see about the Taylor
Speaker 2: because I'm subscribing to the They have two characters from
Speaker 2: Reds right now that I'm kind of down characters. I'm like,
Speaker 2: what they're gonna go. I pitched I on this a
Speaker 2: long time ago, and I'm just gonna long time ago
Speaker 2: meeting earlier this year. I'm just gonna walk. I'm gonna
Speaker 2: say mister X big heavy because Wesker, he's fun. I
Speaker 2: feel if you got Claire or Jill or Chris, they're
Speaker 2: too similar to Leon. Like Leon's the best one obviously,
Speaker 2: but like you know, people have guns that do fighting.
Speaker 2: I'm gonna say, mister X is a big heavy in there.
Speaker 2: Do I think it's likely? No, But I don't think
Speaker 2: it's impossible. I think Leon would just be like a
Speaker 2: cloud or sore where he's just in there. But if
Speaker 2: there's a two for maybe get some more bad guys
Speaker 2: in there. And uh he is an iconic thing from
Speaker 2: those video games, so uh yeah, throw it in there.
Speaker 2: Like I said, I've lost a I've lost a Genu've
Speaker 2: lost I've lost a birdle along the way, so you
Speaker 2: know what, I'm uh spice it up. So mister X, come,
Speaker 2: come joining me my bomb the barrel picks here. So
Speaker 2: mm hmm, let me just check these characters.
Speaker 3: That's I'm scraping the I'm scrape of the barrel here.
Speaker 3: There's probably some more likely's in here. I could be
Speaker 3: a scumbag and just go another one pointer, but I'm
Speaker 3: feeling a little courageous. This is my nineteenth pick right
Speaker 3: at my last.
Speaker 2: That is.
Speaker 3: Okay, I'm gonna take an indie character, so already pretty
Speaker 3: unlikely here, very popular recently. I'm gonna take Hornet from
Speaker 3: Silk Song. I thought about that mostly just because I
Speaker 3: really want to play this character.
Speaker 1: Like I a very smash like moves that in the game.
Speaker 4: For sure.
Speaker 3: It just looks really really fun. I like the design.
Speaker 3: Another one that I'm just hoping me picking this here
Speaker 3: is putting that positive Karmelt in the universe that they
Speaker 3: just it just wills it into existence. I'm manifesting it
Speaker 3: here because that that would be freaking cool playing playing
Speaker 3: that character in here.
Speaker 1: So yeah, I love it. All right, I'm gonna grab
Speaker 1: a boring pick and then I'll have pick to kind
Speaker 1: of pair with it nicely, the boring pick it's your boy,
Speaker 1: it's Donkey Kong, uh grabbing the one pointer. That's what
Speaker 1: one point on the board for me? And then the
Speaker 1: fun spicer pick with this is I did also want
Speaker 1: to pick a new Donkey Kong character. This is a
Speaker 1: series that's been majorly underserved in Smash, Like we still
Speaker 1: only have three characters. It took all the way to
Speaker 1: Brawl to get a second one, and Diddy Kong, who
Speaker 1: should have been in Melee for sure, and it's it's
Speaker 1: just crazy how little we're getting characters. But it seems
Speaker 1: like they're really trying to revive Donkey Kong as a
Speaker 1: series here, bring it back, movies coming out and things
Speaker 1: like that. So I'm gonna go with the kind of
Speaker 1: a simple one here. I'm just gonna go with Funky
Speaker 1: Kong because I think that what they might want to
Speaker 1: do Donkey Yeah, they might just go with a character
Speaker 1: who can like be a Donkey Kong clone.
Speaker 4: You know, so many of those.
Speaker 1: Original Smash characters have like a clone or echo fighter
Speaker 1: fighter character, and I feel like that's an easy one
Speaker 1: you put in there. Maybe they want to spice up
Speaker 1: don Kong move set, give him a little bit of
Speaker 1: brands of stuff, and so you kind of have Funky
Speaker 1: Kong as like the legacy Donkey Kong move set, with
Speaker 1: like adding his surfboard or whatever the heck in there
Speaker 1: and like a cannon or something, and then Donkey Kong
Speaker 1: just kind of gets a new Reworke move set. Not sure,
Speaker 1: but I think it's it's it's potentially safe, easy one.
Speaker 1: I wanted Dixie Kong instead, that was my preferred pick,
Speaker 1: but Taylor stole that long ago. But yeah, I'm gonna
Speaker 1: grab a Funky Kong in here because I hope that
Speaker 1: next match game has a lot more Donkey Kong content
Speaker 1: in it. So I'm representing it there. And that's that's
Speaker 1: my list. I'm a lot of picks at this point,
Speaker 1: So those are my final two and I'm feeling pretty
Speaker 1: good about it. And back over, do you kirklim for
Speaker 1: your final pick?
Speaker 3: Okay, my final pick. I don't think he's been a
Speaker 3: playable character. I don't think he's been an assist trophy.
Speaker 3: But I have pretty limited knowledge on the assist trophies
Speaker 3: through the past histories.
Speaker 4: Here.
Speaker 3: I'm sure Dylan will correct me here. I'm gonna take
Speaker 3: a little dry Bones as my twentieth pick memorable character,
Speaker 3: like iconically from just his his imagery, I don't think
Speaker 3: iconically was right where, But yeah, I like his look.
Speaker 3: I think he's different enough to than like just a
Speaker 3: Yoshi clone. I think it would be like a very
Speaker 3: different move set and it could be could be really fun.
Speaker 1: Yeah, not just his trophies as far as my as
Speaker 1: I know, not even like in any stage as an element,
Speaker 1: probably a sticker or trophy or something. But yeah, I
Speaker 1: think dry Bones is kind of unrepresented in Spanish.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I was thinking about like a Bowser variant, but
Speaker 3: like I feel like it would just be Bowser and then.
Speaker 1: Like his saying they could do dry Bowser, honestly I
Speaker 1: thought about it.
Speaker 3: Yeah there, yeah, yeah, yeah, but dry Bones for now.
Speaker 2: Okay, So I feel like at this point, right with
Speaker 2: who we draft, there's either I can just go for
Speaker 2: the easy one pointer. I don't do that. I could
Speaker 2: go for another person that's way out there, but I
Speaker 2: feel like most of them are already way out there.
Speaker 2: Are they really going to be a pick? I feel
Speaker 2: like with the list I have right now, I don't
Speaker 2: think this pick is gonna win it or lose it.
Speaker 2: For me, I feel like I'm winning or losing already
Speaker 2: with the nineteen I got, I feel confident that I'm
Speaker 2: gonna win it. So I'm gonna throw hell Mary out there.
Speaker 2: I know I still just get the five points this,
Speaker 2: but it would be the hype of just saying, man,
Speaker 2: Trash told you this is gonna happen. It's gonna be
Speaker 2: a first time ever that it's gonna happen. Nintendo's gonna
Speaker 2: reach out and talk to a certain team, bring in
Speaker 2: a character that really for years, people have been trying
Speaker 2: to make platformers successful and lovable and it just never happens.
Speaker 2: Your ukulele's, your remakes of this, Yeah, da da, I'm
Speaker 2: gonna say we're gonna get a legendary first time deal
Speaker 2: with Nintendo and Sony and your boy, Ashrobot is gonna
Speaker 2: fucking come in and be in there and do Anything's
Speaker 2: gonna happen. No, but I want my last pick to
Speaker 2: be a hype one. And when we get that video
Speaker 2: and if it happens, just remember who told you. June
Speaker 2: twenty second, twenty twenty six. Astrobot is he and I
Speaker 2: is Ashrobot. It's happening. Smash six. Here we go legendary
Speaker 2: partnership because it's never happened. I looked it up. There's
Speaker 2: been characters of a peer and PlayStation, but never just
Speaker 2: a PlayStation owned character. I feel like Asher was a
Speaker 2: character they could let go right, like to do that.
Speaker 2: I don't think you're getting a Joel or Ellie. You're
Speaker 2: not getting Nathan Drake.
Speaker 3: You're not gonna Beato.
Speaker 2: Yeah, but Astrabat's like, you know what, I could kind
Speaker 2: of see this this working out for that, Like I
Speaker 2: could see them there is a pitch or a meaning
Speaker 2: or a conversation, right and uh yeah, so Ashrobat get
Speaker 2: him in there? He is, I I see.
Speaker 1: I I'd love to see it. I mean, obviously it
Speaker 1: does fit the Nintendo esthetic and all that. And yeah,
Speaker 1: like we did get PlayStation All Stars where we got
Speaker 1: to see a Credos and Nathan Drake, uh not all
Speaker 1: the big like that was before Aloy and Jin Sakai
Speaker 1: and all that. But I think, uh yeah, I think
Speaker 1: Asherbot would be a cool one getting there. I would
Speaker 1: love to see it. That'd be cool.
Speaker 2: Yeah, not likely, I don't think so. But I wouldn't
Speaker 2: have a fun with my last pick because I don't
Speaker 2: think number nineteen is gonna do it, you know.
Speaker 1: So hey, you know Sony struggling these days. Maybe they
Speaker 1: just take a bag from Nintendo to to get astrobat
Speaker 1: in there, you know.
Speaker 2: Yeah, you never know.
Speaker 1: Take the field your final page.
Speaker 4: Yeah, and this one was tricky because I was looking
Speaker 4: at a different yeah, different and old Nintendo GameCube games,
Speaker 4: because there's a few that I play back in the
Speaker 4: day that I thought like, oh yeah, I remember these
Speaker 4: main characters like Tack for example, and then you got
Speaker 4: I'm Ninja.
Speaker 3: Oh man, I Ninja.
Speaker 4: Ninja.
Speaker 3: That was an amazing game.
Speaker 4: Yeah, attacking the power of the Juju, that's what it's called.
Speaker 4: What you say, would you say, attacking the power of Juju?
Speaker 4: Oh man? You pick? Remember this now you remember it.
Speaker 4: I'm just circling. I'm circling in the power. Ah. I
Speaker 4: just I don't feel like at.
Speaker 1: Jesus, that's no God, No, I don't think there's enough
Speaker 1: notoriety there.
Speaker 2: We got the lunch of your pick attack over your attack,
Speaker 2: He's bag before you get him in smash.
Speaker 4: Game, I think, uh, just for safety safety net, just
Speaker 4: for safety net. I'm going to pick.
Speaker 3: U.
Speaker 4: Let's just throw Rob in there. Slap Rob down, give
Speaker 4: him some love of.
Speaker 2: All the returning carriage as you get, you pick Rob.
Speaker 4: Eh.
Speaker 2: You know he's Nintendo based, right.
Speaker 4: He's Nintendo based. That's exactly why I want him because
Speaker 4: there's no third party character.
Speaker 3: I don't know if you meant a different Rob, but
Speaker 3: the one from Tach and the Powate Rob. It's funny
Speaker 3: like until thinking about the next roster for Smash, I
Speaker 3: was like, I think Rob could be a cut, and
Speaker 3: then he was in the Mari movie.
Speaker 1: I'm like, Okay, I guess he's just sticking around.
Speaker 4: So they like Rob.
Speaker 1: Uh, Taylor, do you want to rifle off your list
Speaker 1: here before we do?
Speaker 4: Sure do? I sure do, Dylan. So my list is
Speaker 4: number one. We got pac Man number two, Beautiful Joe

Speaker 2: Reeve from Ninja Gaiden. He is I as He. Number
Speaker 2: nineteen is mister X and twenty the biggest surprise of
Speaker 2: the roster reveal It's gonna happen Astrobot. I can feel
Speaker 2: it in my imaginary bones.
Speaker 3: The bones. I got Dry Bones as my twentieth pick.
Speaker 3: Am I supposed to go one to twenty or does
Speaker 3: it not matter?
Speaker 1: Hey, it's your list, buddy, Okay who you are?
Speaker 3: I'm going twenty down Dry Bones, followed by Hornet number
Speaker 3: nineteen from Silk Song of Course eighteen, Corona Corona Trigger, seventeen,
Speaker 3: fox 'cloud I sold one point of their number sixteen.
Speaker 3: I got Sothis fifteen. I got the shyest guy around
Speaker 3: with Shy Guy number fourteen. Boo, not the royal, just
Speaker 3: the pleasant, the pleasant peasant Blue number thirteen. I got
Speaker 3: Princess Peach herself number twelve, sephar Roth number eleven. I
Speaker 3: got Big Blue. I guess he's not blue. Red Booty
Speaker 3: Daddy Mario and his paper version followed in number ten.
Speaker 3: Number nine. I got Sora number eight. I got Simon.
Speaker 4: Beaumont.
Speaker 3: That's her last name, right Frommont. I think, so, don't
Speaker 3: say Omaha, don't get Omaha.
Speaker 1: What did you say? I thought, I said Beaumont, Belmont, Belmont,
Speaker 1: oh Belmont.
Speaker 3: Okay uh. I got another Castlevania character here. I got
Speaker 3: Alu card and then I got chun Lee best thighs
Speaker 3: in the game. I got number five Joker number four.
Speaker 3: I got Cloud number three. I got the combo of
Speaker 3: Rookie and OCHI. Hell, yes, let's get them in there.
Speaker 3: Number two doctor Roebotnik and number one breaking away from Peach.
Speaker 3: He's gonna be his own character. I got Toad.
Speaker 1: Love it and my list. Finally you've got Leon Kennedy,
Speaker 1: Sonic Shadow, Mega Man, Bandana, Waddle d Beyonetta, Can and Ryu.
Speaker 1: Separate characters. Hero from Dragon Quest, Steve from Minecraft, Kazia,
Speaker 1: Benjo Kazuoi, Gino, Masterhand, Isaac from Golden Sun, Anna from
Speaker 1: Firearmblm Richter, I don't know his last name, kirkl that
Speaker 1: one is he also a Belmont? Might just also be right,
Speaker 1: Richtor Belmont.
Speaker 3: I'll look at itto.
Speaker 1: It got Terry Bogart, Donkey Kong and Funky Kong. To
Speaker 1: close it out, he is a Belmont. There you go,
Speaker 1: Rictor Belmont famous. Okay, So now the last order of
Speaker 1: business is a quick ad break and then we'll be
Speaker 1: right back alrighty, And the actual last order of business
Speaker 1: is our cuts. So again we're each gonna pick three
Speaker 1: picks characters that we think will be cut from the
Speaker 1: ultimate roster.
Speaker 2: Uh.
Speaker 1: And again, if you pick something that is on someone
Speaker 1: else's list, then you'll get a bonus point. So you
Speaker 1: should probably scout that out first. Again, if you don't
Speaker 1: have it on your screen, let me not. I can
Speaker 1: pull it up again. You can browse through them. But yeah,
Speaker 1: we're each gonna do that, I guess, so we can
Speaker 1: just continue to start with Taylor so you can make
Speaker 1: your first cut pick.
Speaker 4: Okay, this is interesting because now I know what lists
Speaker 4: look like with what you guys have. Chuke, choke choke
Speaker 4: jo here a nice uh exhaust over there.
Speaker 2: Focus on your picks.
Speaker 3: Focus on your picks, don't Lincoln Crystal. I hope he's
Speaker 3: fucking in that game. I don't care how niche of
Speaker 3: a character is. I'm playing Panther and he just says
Speaker 3: like just very sexual quotes too. He just keeps playing
Speaker 3: suggestive comments.
Speaker 6: Mm hmmm.
Speaker 1: If you want, By the way, I guess you could
Speaker 1: pick a character that you have on your own list
Speaker 1: and maybe there'd be a way to farm points. I guess.
Speaker 1: I don't even think about that loophole. Loophole I'm gonna say, like,
Speaker 1: would you get a bonus point.
Speaker 2: Technically would stop someone else from getting more?
Speaker 1: I mean, you would lose a point because they wouldn't
Speaker 1: be in the roster, But then I guess you get
Speaker 1: the bonus point back.
Speaker 2: So but yeah, because if you don't have a.
Speaker 1: Problem with that, if you want to do that, I
Speaker 1: just don't think anyone picked a character that they're not calling.
Speaker 2: If you picked a returner, you could only lose one point,
Speaker 2: but if you like, if someone else hit it, they'd
Speaker 2: get the three points. Right, So there is a way
Speaker 2: to gain the systems.
Speaker 3: But if I pick my one pointer to get cut
Speaker 3: and it's the one on my list, that's three points
Speaker 3: right there. So I kind of make up for losing
Speaker 3: my one point. Okay, I don't understand where you're coming from.
Speaker 4: No me either.
Speaker 3: He is bilet Okay, okay, who is the new Fire
Speaker 3: and Bloom DLC character from respect Roy?
Speaker 2: Get them out of here, get Mare. They've had I think.
Speaker 1: Three houses being the best selling fire Mob game. I
Speaker 1: don't think they're cutting by.
Speaker 2: I know they love their swords.
Speaker 1: Yeah that was my that was my first one.
Speaker 2: You had your time of sound. I think it was
Speaker 2: fun have her back for ultimate, but that what should
Speaker 2: be the la least time that.
Speaker 1: Was gonna be My My point is that I really smashing.
Speaker 1: We've had the opportunity to see which characters do they
Speaker 1: cut from Melee was like, oh we're cutting Roy, Doctor Mario, Peachumuto.
Speaker 1: Like they just slashed the roster with Brawl. They got
Speaker 1: rid of a few like Snake and like Squirtle, Ivy
Speaker 1: Sort and stuff like that. But Smash for we never
Speaker 1: really got that opportunity because the whole gimick of the
Speaker 1: game after it was that everyone is here and so
Speaker 1: even weird old characters like that like we Fit, who
Speaker 1: I think would absolutely have been in.
Speaker 3: The chopping block.
Speaker 1: It's like, wow, you gotta have them back this time around.
Speaker 1: So yeah, yeah, that was I think my number one
Speaker 1: cut pick as well as we Fit Trainers just not
Speaker 1: relevant anymore either, and like never really was or it
Speaker 1: was a weird character in the first place, and not
Speaker 1: really that exciting of a move set. So I think
Speaker 1: that's a that's a good pick. You hmm.
Speaker 3: I'm gonna go on the offensive here and I'm gonna
Speaker 3: say that uh Snake is not gonna return in the
Speaker 3: next Smash game going after you. Yeah, target on your back.
Speaker 1: I actually was also thinking of picking that. So you
Speaker 1: guys are out here scooping mine.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I do think you'll really be a factor this draft. Hey,
Speaker 3: like the order of this draft, I feel like it's
Speaker 3: not always like super.
Speaker 1: I lost a lot of picks underestimating what you guys
Speaker 1: would go for. So you guys have done a really
Speaker 1: good job here.
Speaker 4: Uh.
Speaker 1: With that said, I am gonna graba, I'm gonna counterpick
Speaker 1: one of Kirklin's here. I'm just gonna hit him right
Speaker 1: back with the countertack. I'm gonna grab Joker. I don't
Speaker 1: know why. It just seems to me like this might
Speaker 1: be one that gets cut. I could see what happening
Speaker 1: is they cut Joker and then add like a new
Speaker 1: character from the New Persona game or something like that,
Speaker 1: just still have that persona representation. But Joker doesn't make
Speaker 1: the cut, so fair enough, Yeah, I don't. I don't
Speaker 1: feel like too enthusiastic about that, but I just for
Speaker 1: the bonus put. Potentially, I'll grab Joker and yeah, I
Speaker 1: was gonna take we fits. So now where do I
Speaker 1: go instead?
Speaker 3: I'll go with uh, I'll go with uh.
Speaker 1: It's funny enough. Joker was the second DLC character. The
Speaker 1: first one is piranha Plan and that's gonna be my
Speaker 1: other pick here. It was a weird character. It was
Speaker 1: like a it was like a pre order bonus thing
Speaker 1: you could do for Smash. It's a weird pick. It
Speaker 1: doesn't need to be. There so many other Mario characters,
Speaker 1: I just don't see them going anywhere. But Parana Plant,
Speaker 1: I think is one that is pretty disposable and easy
Speaker 1: chop when you're looking to build out a new roster
Speaker 1: a new game, so especially because it's like a not
Speaker 1: a character, right, just like an NPC type thing. So yeah,
Speaker 1: I'm gonna go with Piranha Plant as my next pick.
Speaker 3: Back to you, Okay, I think I'm gonna take a
Speaker 3: firearm of character out because nice, I think we're gonna
Speaker 3: be adding some in there, Dylan, help me. Remember it
Speaker 3: was Chrom in Ultimate.
Speaker 1: Crom was added in Ultimate.
Speaker 3: Yet, Okay, I'm gonna take Crom out. I was debating
Speaker 3: between him and Lucina, but I feel like Lucine is
Speaker 3: more of a popular character.
Speaker 1: Lucine is lot.
Speaker 3: Yeah, so I'm gonna take the Chrome Dome himself, mister Crom.
Speaker 1: Yeah, good pick. I think he's the least interesting character
Speaker 1: in there in terms of move set and like personality,
Speaker 1: and like there's already three other Awakening characters outside of him. Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: you don't need them.
Speaker 3: Robin's unique, so I think they're staying, you know. Yeah,
Speaker 3: I think Lucina is even though like so similar to Marth.
Speaker 3: I think people just love Lucina.
Speaker 1: Yeah. So definitely.
Speaker 2: Yeah, uh Inklin, oh Inculator.
Speaker 1: You think Inkling's going yep, I did.
Speaker 4: Whoa.
Speaker 2: I think it makes some room. I don't think it's
Speaker 2: that special to character. We lose popular characters all the time,
Speaker 2: as you just mentioned quite a few there. Yeah, Inkling
Speaker 2: can see you later.
Speaker 1: That is a wild pick.
Speaker 2: That is to me.
Speaker 1: I think it's a Platoon is one of the biggest
Speaker 1: Nintendo franches right now. It's up there in like their
Speaker 1: top five or six in terms of like popularity right now.
Speaker 1: And that's that's only.
Speaker 2: Those industry plant games, you know those That was like
Speaker 2: the that was.
Speaker 1: The first character they used to sell all the inklan
Speaker 1: is in Ultimate that was the first trailer.
Speaker 2: Then people can talk about what because is that? They
Speaker 2: cut the crazy pick and I won't miss it. Get
Speaker 2: that here. Somethings are personal.
Speaker 1: Okay, okay, Taylor, you get two picks back back, two
Speaker 1: picks back to back.
Speaker 4: Uh where'd that list go? That's what I want to know.
Speaker 1: Sorry, I did just delete that. I can put it
Speaker 1: back in.
Speaker 3: Taylor and I were chatting like Tom Riddle and Harry Potter.
Speaker 3: This one has the fullest to This is because I
Speaker 3: was deleting out characters we had picked, but this one
Speaker 3: is the folks.
Speaker 1: I like this for some reason. Centered I don't know why.
Speaker 6: Uh.
Speaker 4: Okay, who's getting kicks out of here? Is the fullest?
Speaker 4: So I can I can cut DLC characters or no,
Speaker 4: it has to be mainline.
Speaker 1: Anybuddy who's been an ultimate is up for grabs.
Speaker 4: Here, anyone? All right, Terry, you're out of here. I
Speaker 4: don't even know who this says.
Speaker 1: He is not I and is not. That's a count
Speaker 1: pick on me as well.
Speaker 4: So good, good one there, and you get your Okay,
Speaker 4: I'm gonna get rid of hang on, I just got this.
Speaker 4: See who this character is?
Speaker 3: Who is this that guy with the bottle fingers, that's
Speaker 3: my character.
Speaker 2: Wait for us to watch that one day, hopefully someone'll
Speaker 2: pick it. Never coming up in the Annals of Geek
Speaker 2: for history, so one.
Speaker 4: Hmmm. I could see that character actually sticking around and
Speaker 4: I think about it. Oh that's interesting. Mm hmm. Okay,
Speaker 4: one last, just a little research thing here, because you're
Speaker 4: an interesting little one.
Speaker 2: Let's see, I'm looking at alm right now. You're an
Speaker 2: interesting little one.
Speaker 4: Girl. I'm gonna get rid of Pyra and Mithra. I
Speaker 4: think these two ladies don't have a sure ship shot
Speaker 4: of coming back.
Speaker 2: Exactly like Halloween. He's not gonna be added over three characters.
Speaker 2: Almost were like, what, like, come on, someone wakes Ackerry
Speaker 2: that up and tell me there was Chara who's paying
Speaker 2: and he's getting the bag. It's like Hiard.
Speaker 1: At least they closed it with Sora. You know, they
Speaker 1: went out big.
Speaker 2: Yeah. I don't know why. I got a feeling one
Speaker 2: could stick but not the other. I learned that they
Speaker 2: were just in the game, so I can learn that
Speaker 2: they're not in the next game. Off see you later.
Speaker 1: I think that's a really good counter.
Speaker 2: Yeah, he took he took one. I took his, not
Speaker 2: so but you know, if he gets cut, I will
Speaker 2: go and maybe buy him one day, if I just
Speaker 2: to actually wait till Dylan's in town to play, because
Speaker 2: I am curious to play.
Speaker 1: That is super crazy. He's a wild character.
Speaker 2: Imagine you would be.
Speaker 1: Yeah, so that's I just his sword is huge. He's
Speaker 1: got a big long sword. Big long sword compat to
Speaker 1: your final cut.
Speaker 4: Yeah.
Speaker 3: I was thinking about going, uh some game hunting here.
Speaker 3: I was thinking about grabbing my rifle and going hunting
Speaker 3: for some pokemon was I was siting up. Yeah, Taylor's Lucrio.
Speaker 3: I think that one is a higher chance of staying
Speaker 3: than this other chump. So I'm gonna take a couple
Speaker 3: of shots at in ciner roar, get this punk out
Speaker 3: of here, not the wrestler, throw them against the throw
Speaker 3: against the ring, and then out of out of the
Speaker 3: out of the game. Just like every time I play
Speaker 3: that character, I do that one move that he just
Speaker 3: go He just goes up and then down and off rocket.
Speaker 2: The one Pokemon. I like, you can take him out.
Speaker 2: Fuck man, he's cool, but like, I don't think you're
Speaker 2: wrong though, he could be a chopping block one.
Speaker 1: All right, what the hell is going on down here?
Speaker 1: Someone's got some kurdy so close to my picks to
Speaker 1: get that way? Uh, I'm gonna follow, I think I'm
Speaker 1: gonna yeah, actually I'll follow Kirkland. I was originally gonna
Speaker 1: say I'm gonna follow Kirklin and cut a Fire and
Speaker 1: Bloom character, which I think is likely, and I was
Speaker 1: gonna go with Corn, But instead I'm gonna follow you
Speaker 1: on cutting a Pokemon, and I'm gonna cut a character
Speaker 1: who's been cut before and is an easy cut when
Speaker 1: you need to cut more characters, I'm cutting peachew from
Speaker 1: the roster here. Yeah, who I think we're not for
Speaker 1: ultimates gimmick being we're bringing back everyone. Peachu would have
Speaker 1: been a one and done in Melee. You know, so
Speaker 1: many characters were added to Melee because that game had
Speaker 1: like a nine month development cycle and they just needed
Speaker 1: cheap characters who they could copy of move set from
Speaker 1: someone else. That's why Falco and Roy and Gannadorf and
Speaker 1: Young Link and Doctor Mario and Peachu are all just
Speaker 1: exactly toans of other characters. And then so many of
Speaker 1: them got chopped when the future games happened and didn't
Speaker 1: come back. And Peach, I think is just one of
Speaker 1: those ones that could fall by the wayside as well.
Speaker 2: Again, Peachu's a good one. And even then, like I
Speaker 2: think your argument for Peachu's better. But even like mewtwo,
Speaker 2: it's like we need to tell aout we fit trainer
Speaker 2: and like relevancy, like mewtwo was made that eric is
Speaker 2: like all those movies and big characters like in twenty
Speaker 2: twenty six, Like I know, Taaroan's the last time you
Speaker 2: saw mewtwo?
Speaker 4: Oh what in real life? Like games?
Speaker 2: Yeah, Like I just think that characters not. I don't
Speaker 2: see that on any Pokemon art, games, posters anything.
Speaker 4: There was a massive push and Pokemon go. It just
Speaker 4: armored me two raids not too long ago.
Speaker 2: Okay, he feels very much like and not dasbad, but
Speaker 2: like a venom and carnage where like very much of
Speaker 2: that era in that time.
Speaker 1: And then you know, it was interesting seeing like Smashboard
Speaker 1: such a different DLC ritual. I suppose were like they
Speaker 1: added Lucas back, mewtwo back, Roy back as like DLC
Speaker 1: characters for that, whereas like that was not the strategy
Speaker 1: for Ultimate Ultimates, like we're going big with like third
Speaker 1: parties or like big swing Nintendo characters. I don't know,
Speaker 1: maybe bile it's not a big swing, but like big
Speaker 1: new characters. And yeah, the Smash four was like a
Speaker 1: very different game, so I don't know, we could I
Speaker 1: wonder what it would do, like especially if they cut
Speaker 1: a bunch of characters from Ultimate for the next game,
Speaker 1: maybe they'd switch up the DLC strategy and like, oh yeah,
Speaker 1: we we didn't have Mew two in there at the start,
Speaker 1: but we're adding Mew two back because it's like we've
Speaker 1: already had the move set. It's like cheaper to development time,
Speaker 1: so who knows, maybe we'll see something like that. Of
Speaker 1: course Ultimate didn't have the opportunity because all the characters
Speaker 1: were in there from day one and we got to
Speaker 1: end this because the boys are getting loopy in the
Speaker 1: in the chat here the rock is.
Speaker 2: Rock.
Speaker 1: You didn't draft that though. For some reason. Boys, this
Speaker 1: was very, very fun. Of course, this is a very
Speaker 1: early draft. Who it could be maybe they announced it
Speaker 1: next month, Probably not because Career or Zack Roi just
Speaker 1: finished Career Writers, you know, a few months ago. Probably
Speaker 1: be a while, but this is one we had to
Speaker 1: do bank it well in advance before there's any sort
Speaker 1: of announcement. But yeah, I mean, I still think there's
Speaker 1: more Smash Ultimate or Smash six Rosters stuff to talk
Speaker 1: about in the future, so we'll definitely do that. But
Speaker 1: this has been a fun one. Boys. Thank you for
Speaker 1: joining me. I think you all did an excellent job.
Speaker 1: I'm very I'm very proud of you guys. I thought
Speaker 1: I would have an unfair advantage just with how much
Speaker 1: nerdy brain power I've spent on this stuff. Oh my god,
Speaker 1: I'm losing my marvels here with all these things.
Speaker 3: You guys are posted Thank you everyone for listening, Thank
Speaker 3: you boys for joining me. We will see you all
Speaker 3: next time.
Speaker 1: Bye bye
Speaker 4: Bye
