Was disappointed with Corrin's reveal, but Sakurai did make him look pretty interesting at least. He's the new Roy in spirit, but not in move set. Bayonetta was awesome through and through.

RIP Simon Belmont. Konami just hates video games and fun too much now.

I'd be interested in seeing the ballot results to find who is considered not realizable, but I'm sure that would only bolster the requisite whining.

Order! Order in the court!
Sad about no Wolf, holding out a bit of hope on the fact that he said no more "new" characters, but it's still a bit of a stretch.
He was a fun as hell character in Brawl that could barely be considered a clone, shame he was left out in favor of... Roy. ROY! God dammit, why?

Otherwise, Corrin looks awesome as a character, not hype-worthy but a great, interesting character. Bayo, well it's fucking Bayo. Best last character ever. #BLOCKED

Judged purely on his own merits yeah Corrin actually looks cool. Sure some people will say just another anime swordfighter but we saw pretty much his/her whole moveset except some aerials and throws I think and only the tilts and dash attack seemed to actually use the sword. Hell when the Fire Emblem Fates Protagonist was revealed to be a dragonstone user I remember thinking, its nice that they're making a continued effort to not just have sword users any more, shame they probably won't be the newest lord by the time the next Smash rolls around I'd like to see what a dragonstone user would be like in Smash.

Still considering the context of being one of only 4 non veteran newcomers (and the only non 3rd party one) yeah I can't exactly blame anyone for being disappointed. I might be too but I'm still too high on the Bayo hype, I was voting Wonder Red but she was right behind him for me and I honestly thought both were impossible dream picks. They could have actually added Shrek, Naturo and Goku and I still would be too busy being hype about Bayonetta to complain.

Also he's kind of being lost in all the new reveals hype but Cloud is a pretty cool dude. Despite looking similar to Ike on the surface he feels pretty different. He's surprsingly quick with that gigantic sword, and has surprisingly low killing power. Limit Break meter is fun, feels like a way better version of Mac's KO meter, I mean his "instant kill" seems to not be quite as powerful but its way more versatile and practical. On the whole I gotta give the Smash team props again, their new character design the dlc has kept the same level of quality the base game did. Very few (non costume clone) newcomers feel like they don't have something interesting going on and even the plainer ones at least seem unique. There's arguments that will never end about the mechanics and overall gameplay, but in terms of just roster this Smash really did go above and beyond.

Hooray! My first DLC purchase in Bayo!

We'll see about Corrin. See how I like Fates. (Probably will)

I hope Corrin is the sleeper high tier character. I think Corrin is going to be more fun to play than Bayo.

Am I the only one who is a bit ...burned out on Smash? Like, I've supported Smash through it's entire lifetime up until November or something. I wasted spent a lot of money on dlc, buying Mii costumes I'm never going to use. I bought a shitload of amiibos. But I still have two level 1 amiibos and one custom amiibo that's only half done.

I'm not sure if I will buy the new characters. Sure, I was disappointed when they were revealed, but I sorta got over it, I guess. But frankly, I'm not sure if I will play Smash that much anymore. There are other games that need my attention. I have to say though, Corrin's moveset looks interesting. Have fun everyone who buys Bayo and Corrin, I might pick them up later. Or not. We'll see.

Corrin's look sweet since the beginning, giving Shulk a run for his money in the absurd melee range camp. And yeah they look like they could actually be pretty good, surprisingly amount on some of the aerials and surprisingly little landing lag by the looks of it too.

I still fully intend to main Bayo but I've felt like people have been overhyping her power level from the start. She's got those sweet air combos but unlike Zero Suit Samus or Meta Knight she doesn't seem to have a high power up B to capitalize on them for early kills. I was worried she'd be too reliant on getting witch time to land her kills with those Smash attacks, and from the limited new footage that did indeed seem to be the most common way she got kills. On the other hand witch time does look really good so maybe that won't be as big a problem as it sounds.

Honestly though for my tastes each dlc newcomer seems better for me than the last, I'm super excited for both these two new guys.

Really, I just hope one of Bayonetta's moves turns out to be a Jolt Haymaker-tier botch move. Just one move so we can canonise Botchanetta.

I've been neglecting training my amiibos lately, and I never really got into the For Glory scene so that hasn't kept me going on Smash, really. But we'll see how Corrin and Bayo play out. I probably won't main either of them - sticking to Toon Link, Cina, and OUR BOY for now. I'm also trying to git gud with some of the non-DLC characters too. (That's going about as well as you'd expect from someone who avoids For Glory like the plague.)
