Ultimate didn't have many new fighters at launch due to it's enormous scale, which is entirely understandable. But even so, I was starving for new fighters and when jonkler was teased I was excirted. prior to his announcement I never even played a persona title nevertheless I was still excited just to see a brand new character in this game. Hero was leaked befoore the direct so I expected him to show up and wasn't very excited or surpised. but in the same direct Banjo showed up and surprised the fuck ouit of me. I was NOT expected that. and in the same direct they reveealed 'BOTW 2' no less. Terry was cool, I always love to see fighting game rep in a smash game. I love taking a moveset and translating it to a different game, similar to how they tackled akuma in tekken or ryu in ssb4. Byleth fucking sucks I was floored when i watched that reveal. I was in fucking 2nd period math class and couldn't believe my eyes.
Overall it was solid. Really strange and unexopected chopices that really don't have much chemistry with each other, but variety.
