Super Smash Bros. for 3DS & Wii U Thread 7: How Can My Smash Brother Be This Cut

As an Ike main who was slowly giving up hope on him returning. . I am stunned and so overjoyed right now. So worth staying up for this despite working in 5hrs!!!! :-D
 
Were Ike's clothes always made from patches of cloth from the people he killed? Because that outfit is Final Fantasy ridiculous.

He still looks pretty neat, but still, lol. Probably purposely made buffer and a less uniform outfit so he didn't blend in with Marth and Chrom. Honestly, gives more weight to a third lord's inclusion to me.

Could someone please explain to me who this character is and why I should be excited?
He's one of the most memorable Lords in the Fire Emblem franchise (being the star of two consecutive games, Radiant Dawn and Path of Radiance), was fun to use in Brawl, and was near the top of most people's lists of expected cuts for Smash 4.

It's a pleasant surprise.

Damn Ike looks really good now. I love his new design. I hope they give him a new move set and that he's not a clone of Marth... also, I'm still hoping for either Ness or Lucas soon or for Shulk at E3. :p

Protagonist of Fire Emblem 9 and 10.

Pretty good character who got some decent development between both games. He was horribly, horribly represented in Brawl (and judging from those screenshots, he still has the same moveset)

Ah well, i'm glad he's back.

EDIT: I have no excuses :X

He was one of the 2 Fire Emblem reps from Brawl. People thought he would be cut to make room for a new fire emblem rep. Luckily he wasnt

He was a clone before? Must have been playing him completely wrong then. I thought he only had Counter in common.

Ike's been working out with Little Mac or something because dude looks buff. Never played Radiant Dawn so I wasn't expecting this. Looks good.

Cool Ike's back but what's up with the Jak and Daxter armor?

I know it's inspired by Radiant Dawn but it doesn't evoke the same kind of heroism.

Thankfully he'll have color swaps that are superior to his vanilla costume.

The more detailed models have really been out of the park redesign-wise. Marth, Ike, Peach, Zelda - definitely my favorite updates.
 
Aside from this god tier fridayTON reveal, the bess news is that Chrom probably won't be a marth or ike clone and instead be wholly unique if he makes it as the third F.E. rep.

Pic of the day. Ike, the swordsman of magnificent strength, joins the battle!! Strike your foes down with his powerful smash attacks.

For this game, Ike's design is based on the hero that appears in Fire Emblem: Radiant Dawn. His sword deals heavy damage in Smash Bros., so this design suits him very well! Rest assured, he can use Aether as well.

On another note, seeing the Villager's alt costumes in action is so surreal to me. I'm so used to the regular Villager that putting his alt in almost feels like a photoshop fake or something.
