HW Ganondorf has cool swordplay, yes, but he also brings some really badass punching to the fray.

Like his 3 combo, which is basically just a Warlock Punch with a projectile added.

Anyone know when the new direct will air? They said it was the last one for Smash. does that mean they'll announce all new DLC?

You can't get it wrong if it's the truth!

Nobody said anything about it being "the last", for the record.

They only said it's special.

As far as Cloud in drag goes: watch it be a Mii costume. Complete with silly twin pigtail wig.

It probably is the final SSB-devoted Direct, at least. We might get smaller doses of content later down the line, but probably nothing report-worthy.

This will likely reveal the poll characters as the final additions to the roster.

Also, even if this is the last Smash-centric Direct, it is by no means the last Smash bros announcement.

I mean, Cloud was announced at a not-smash-centric Direct.

People have been making a lot of Smash 4 tier lists today. Out of those, I agree the most with ESAM even though ESAM does overrate his own character.

To be quite frank, I agree with that since I find Roy overrated.

Although, I would not put him as low as ESAM does.

The tier list I agreed with the most so far is Abadango's

Characters not listed are considered unviable.

Why does Abadango have Duck Hunt that high? Who uses Duck Hunt?

Also, where is Ike?

There's quite a few Duck Hunt players and there are no Ikes in Japan.

I don't think Ike is that good regardless though.

Ike certainly deserves a spot somewhere in C or B going by Abadango's tier list.

I think Abadango's list is pretty much how I think, with the exception of Lucario being somewhere lower. Also Marth. Don't know anyone who plays Duck Hunt so no opinion there.

As for the last of the DLC, I believe Nintendo Europe announced on Twitter that the Smash direct would be the last round of DLC for Smash.

[up]Ike is pretty much only good in 3+ player games. 1v1 he's pretty terrible.

Correction: It wasn't a tweet, just a press release. Specifically, the last direct exclusively for Smash Bros. Given how they can't do DLC forever, I think it's probably the last of the DLC. If not now, then maybe one more group in early 2016.

Last Smash-exclusive direct.

But don't forget that this recent Direct wasn't Smash-exclusve, and announced Cloud.

I figure Nintendo is gonna be riding that end-of-Direct-fire-cross hype train as long as possible.

Ike terrible? I think multiple people using him in the U.S. and getting decent tournament results does not mean Ike is terrible.

I mean, Palutena and WFT get results, among others, that doesn't make them amazing. Meanwhile Olimar has almost no notable results and is place in high tier by most.

Okay, but even in theory I don't see why Ike would be a bad character.

While technically they could still do big Smash reveals in other Directs, I suspect that this December Direct will reveal the final DLC characters, and any Smash DLC beyond that will just be Mii costumes and stages.

Given how "there will be no more DLC" announcements typically go, that would be an incredibly stupid move.

I've seen it happen to PSASBR, Soul Calibur V, and others; official "no more DLC" announcements are equivalent to "this game is no longer officially supported". Soon as that becomes known, everyone jumps ship and goes back to fucking Melee.
