I hope so. If we do get an announcement, my guess would probably be either Shulk, Ridley, or a veteran reveal (like Capt. Falcon).

If we get a reveal I'm hoping for Shantae or Anna. I've never played either of their games but still...

Nah, if they reveal someone at EVO I guarantee it would be someone that's geared toward the competitive audience. Those are the kind of people that attend/watch this thing.

Meta Knight confirmed?

Nah. No chance of an announcement I think.

I have a message from another time...

If someone big at Nintendo is there then there might be a chance. Very little, but there's a bit.

I always thought it'd be hilarious if Nintendo revealed Meta Knight at EVO and made a trailer pointing out his new shortcomings.

Guess it's about time to start making roster predictions. I'm predicting Snake, Ivysaur, and Squirtle cut with everyone else back and Shulk, Chorus Men, Chrom, Dixie Kong, and someone else as the unrevealed newcomers.

I would say Shulk would be the character introduced but I wonder if they think Xenoblade was big enough to merit such a public reveal.

I don't think they'll introduce any newcomers, personally. A character reveal in itself would be a bit out there, but a veteran would be more likely, in my opinion of course.

Why have an announcement at a highly publicized event that's just a veteran confirmation? I'd imagine they'd rather use the publicity to promote someone new.

I don't think a reveal is all too likely, personally. They're probably just sponsoring it.

@Nap: I thought competitive players despised Meta Knight with the burning intensity of a thousand exploding suns?

Besides, we all know who competitive players (and everybody else) love! C'mon, Captain Falcon!

The competitive community don't hate Meta Knight as a character himself. They hate how unfair and broken his gameplay is, given vanilla Brawl's metagame (no idea how he plays in Project M though...)

The main thing is that the movement of all his other B specials is nerfed by a good amount and Attack priority is also fixed.

So, I know many of us here have expressed to see Inklings in some later iteration of this series. But how about characters from Codename S.T.E.A.M.?

I haven't really seen any of them; but hey, in my eyes, the more the merrier.

Demonstration of Ice Climbers to demonstrate how they have effectively retooled grappling such that walk-off stages are no longer auto-banned.

I wouldn't expect any characters at EVO. Doesn't seem to be Nintendo's style to reveal a character there.

As for remaining newcomers, once you get past the Geamtsu 3, the only characters that I think have decent odds are Dixie, K. Rool, and Ridley. The former two for a DK character, and the latter because his situation is weird. Past those 6, we're left with the likes of Issac, Takamaru, and Bowser Jr. as the most likely newcomers. But we've been surprised before, so who knows.
