Was the outrage really all that warranted?

Everyone would've cried anyway if it was some other third party pick, let's not fucking kid ourselves here.
Jeremiah Garcia
No. I know plenty of people who openly admitted that if the character had the same moveset and everything, and just wasn't Fire Emblem, they wouldn't be pissed.
Logan Rodriguez
There wasn't enough negativity and the people who defend them are forced to lower their standards lowest as possible to do it.
>not a clone!
>there's 6 more characters coming
>some people like them!
How many times have you seen these? While all are true they would apply to literally any character. Yes, even the character you're about to accuse me of wanting.
Grayson Ramirez
Yes? They could have included literally anyone else and it would have been fine. Instead they include a character literally no one wanted for the sole sake of marketing.
John Garcia
This, people just want to be unhappy because it's their comfort zone.
Elijah Moore
Yes. The absolute worst pick imaginable.
Evan Powell
Yes because there are even other FE characters they could have used. An axe user would have been dope.
Tyler Rivera
Maybe at first... but all is forgiven, since Byleth as actually so fucking FUN to play ad.
Aaron Price
Nah, I thought it was pretty cool to see Mario in my blue-haired anime boy fighting game
Gavin Young
>They could have included literally anyone else and it would have been fine.
But you smash babies called Dante and Travis generic anime swordsmen and Arlefags pedophiles back during the announcement.
Jonathan Baker
Those were FE fans butthurt, thinking someone couldn't possibly legitmately not want lyn but dante.
Christopher Jenkins
Yes, his moveset is fucking boring and does nothing interesting with the gimmick, and he's from Fire Emblem. Legitimately the most dumpster fire pick.
Christopher Campbell
YES!
Connor Thompson
>Those were FE fans butthurt
It's not good to lie user.
Eli Rogers
YEAH CAUSE IT WASN'T FUCKING CRASH!
HOW COULD THEY DO MY BOY LIKE THIS?
Bentley Perez
Yes. Fire Emblem is not popular enough to warrant as many reps as it has. It fucking rivals Mario in the number of reps it has in Smash Brothers and it's a niche RPG series who came back from the grave on 100% pure waifu shit
Evan Long
WE VERY CLEARLY NEED MORE F.E. REPS
Jace Clark
half the people complaining don't even play the game anyways, so who cares
Nathan Foster
YES! NINTENDO DIDN'T PAID ATTENTION TO MY BOX AND ADDED ANOTHER JAPANESE CHARACTER IN A JAPANESE GAME! HOW COULD THEY!
Dominic Hughes
Yeah, they have such a unique move-set that I could legit see it working for a MH character. They even went out of their way to avoid another vB counter move even though it makes sense given their in game power to rewind time.
But because they're from FE? "Another MaRtH!".
Fuckin chimps will gosh over a dead af 3rd character with a completely forgettable move-set over something that's actually original cause of "rep".
Liam King
all the people who like byleth don't even play any game besides FE
Benjamin James
FE rep is the one thing that was going to make almost noone happy.
Ironically I think if Chrom hadn't been added, Byleth would've received less outrage and more "oh Sakurai couldn't help himself".
Byleth at least plays differently from the Marth variants.
Luke Cooper
>Byleth's moveset
>Unique
Pick fucking one.
Landon Scott
No, but the attention given to the outrage is even less warranted. No sane person should care what stinky smashfags who don't wipe or bathe think.
Gavin Hernandez
>Ironically I think if Chrom hadn't been added, Byleth would've received less outrage and more "oh Sakurai couldn't help himself".
I pin the blame largely on Corrin for not only being 4's final DLC character, but it's sole non-returning first party. Also, people can at least fondly remember Chrom.
Andrew Brooks
Wonder if Pauline finds her way into the pass will people finally start to tard out over Mario rep or will they passively just sit there and eat shit cause "At least I grew up with Mario ... and it's super big so it deserves even more reps .."
Henry Brooks
didn't understand Corrin, don't get this one either.
Lucina made sense, but why would you put the avatar character in the game? they can barely be considered characters. at least pick someone with a solid backstory and charisma.
Charles Harris
If you want to split hairs, no outrage ever is warranted.
Mason Green
>They even went out of their way to avoid another vB counter move even though it makes sense given their in game power to rewind time.
When it was on Corrin it was "IT DOESN'T MATTER MUH DRAGON FORM REEEEEEEEEEE"
But the very millisecond a FE character decides not to have a counter suddenly it's something worth praising, lmao. "You didn't have the most obvious, overused, least interesting down b possible, here's an award"
'
Even then his down b isn't much better. It's "really strong move that never hits #54" Basically Dedede's down b except you can't walk while doing it.
Julian Smith
What the fuck would she even do?
Twitter would orgasm to a female character, Yas Forums would orgasm to a female character, not even caring about moveset.
Bentley Thompson
Yup.
Included for advertising.
Unfortunately for them, this stunt only made people who didn't buy FE before only despise it afterwards. Completely opposite effect. The market audience remained the same if not stagnated.
Fuck 'em.
Levi White
The point of FE is to project yourself in this universe where you're perfect and everyone loves you so that's why the probably did it.
Ryder Reyes
The most wet fart ending to a season pass possible. This reveal literally killed my hype for ultimate and the arms rep did nothing to salvage it. Not opposed to arms but after this abomination of a reveal I was hoping for something to make me care about ultimate again.
Brayden Bell
No, it was just a bunch of seething Genofags
Jaxon Brown
Wasn't the whole week before the reveal just a Dante circlejerk boardwide?
Evan Wright
>b-b-b-b-b-but OTHER character
byleth sucks and is hated because of it, period.
Jaxson Wright
Yes, the fact it was the MC just shows how blatant of a shill advertising pick it was. If FE3H was to get a rep based on true popularity and pleasing the fans it would have been one of the house leaders and most likely pre timeskip Edelgard.
Jack Anderson
Yup, but smash stinkies are trying to sweep that shit under the rug to hide their tears.
Luis Perry
He's down special is literally Hero's hatchet man.
Jaxson Green
Based
Jaxon Murphy
>smug faggots kept shilling Sabi and KOS-MOS
oh boy, how did that age well. fuck leaktrannies
Jordan Brown
>Included for advertising.
Sakurai has said more than once that he uses smash as a means to expose and promote JPN gaming IPs to the world.
Zachary Howard
It's not Byleth's fault all other FEggots wouldn't leave to make room, but we can't get rid of them either because it would ruin EVERYONE IS HERE. He would have been a good choice in a vacuum, but he'll forever be branded with the stigma of being the eighth fucking FE character in one game.
Mason Bell
It'd be nice if he did it for something other than FE.
Jaxson Wood
>this stunt only made Rosterfags who didn't buy FE before only despise it afterwards
FTFY. Not everything revolves around shitty kid's game, smelly.
Jayden Myers
I guess everyone in the world is a "rosterfag" because the 3H's sales are still mediocre
Aiden Brown
obsessed

Dylan Williams
Based.
Ryan Flores
What a joke. FE wouldn't even be a thing anymore if it weren't for Smash.
Jaxon Davis
Yeah, FE:3H is a huge success and even the FE:H mobile shit is Nintendo's biggest mobile shit by a mile.
It's a legit beloved series, online rosterfags dumping their diapers over this doesn't mean shit when they likely didn't care about the series before.
Gotta be a special type of retarded to hate a series because it got more characters in a smash game than you think it should.
Alexander Torres
If it wasn't for Nintendo willing to give it 20 years with a game coming out at least once every 2-3 years it wouldn't be a thing. It makes you wonder what would still be alive if other franchises were allowed to continue like that.
Samuel Diaz
no manchildren tantrum is warranted
not everything gonna cater to (you), better luck next time
Levi Watson
>Yeah, FE:3H is a huge success
lol
> and even the FE:H mobile shit is Nintendo's biggest mobile shit by a mile.
FE fans are literally the only ones degenerate enough to unironically spend money on jpegs.
>Gotta be a special type of retarded to hate a series because it got more characters in a smash game than you think it should.
Why would I support a series that lowers the quality of one I like?
Evan Long
>FE fans are literally the only ones degenerate enough to unironically spend money on jpegs
Boy, that statement proves you're a shitposter who doesn't fact check their knowledge
Gabriel Cooper
3H was objectively a success
Jackson Hernandez
>Professor, may I speak with you?
>I appreciate it.
>I...
>I'm just anxious. It feels like a relief that the weight of this burden falls upon you now.
>The people of Yas Forums have spoken, it is you who they now hate, and not me.
>At this very moment, you are starting an all out war.
>An army of shitposters far larger than the one that attacked me relentlessly in the past 6 months will soon be locked in battle... against you.
>Long-devised strategies are unfolding across Yas Forums. Smashfags are deciding their mains against you and preparing to fight...
>So many threads and shitposts will archive because of this. It's inevitable that even genuinely good posts will get caught up in the chaos as well and become archived.
>There will be countless casualties. With a single command, the flames of war will rage across all corners of this board.
>This is the path you choose, isn't it?
>No matter how much blood flows at my feet, I will not relent for you. We must break the bonds that the Fire Emblem haters have on our beloved Sakurai.
>These sacrifices will allow us to create a future where we never need sacrifice again. It may seem contradictory, but it's the only way.
>Heh. Listen to me. I made up my mind long ago. Yet here I am, seeking your approval.
>Tell me the truth, my teacher. Are you happy with your decision to accept being in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate?
>I believe in you, Professor. As you believed in me.
Charles Martin
This. Rosterfags only care about the CSS and shitty meme fan-arts than the actual game itself.
Aaron Sanchez
>You're not allowed to hate Fire Emblem!!!! ALL FIRE EMBLEM CHARACTERS SHOULD BE ADDED TO SMASH
God I hate you people.
Ethan Adams
Only ones out of Nintendo fans.
For whats supposed to be one of Nintendos biggest ips, it isn't.
