He-llo people of Reddit! I'mma be taking over mr Rain here on day 69 (nice). Our last round ended with a skip on the echoes and a deadlock between Dante and Shantae! Plus, Skull Kid pulled ahead of Palico and won the deadlock. So vote for whoever you think should join next!

Now as always before we begin let's go over the rules real quick!

The rules for Smash Factor are pretty simple-Characters you submit must be eligible for Smash-They have to be Video Game Franchises and the character has to have appeared in a Video Game (E.g. no Android 21 from DBZ Fighterz and none of the Sonic Comic characters who've never appeared in a game).

Tell us IN DETAIL why we should pick your character! Even if it's a character that you think speaks for themselves on why they should be added imagine these are the characters auditioning to Sakurai trying to persuade him to add them to the game, we want to see you build a case for your character on why they deserve to be in Smash 6 and convince us that your choice is the one that were should go with here and now. We will very likely ignore any submission that doesn't have any/good enough reasoning in their submission in favour of someone whose made more of an argument for their pick. If you've noticed that your pick hasn't been chosen by any of the judges maybe see if you can make a stronger case for them when you resubmit them? The difference could be what pushes us to decide to pick your submission over someone else's.

Me and the rest of the Judges can't make any submissions, all we can do is discuss and vote on the characters you've all picked-Though we may decide on a Theme for a day if we feel like the roster is in desperate need of something or we may choose to skip a day/ choose a character between ourselves if there's Slim Pickens when it comes to the characters that are submitted.

Be civil with everyone in the comments! I know downvotes don't particularly matter here but either way there's no reason to do it, don't bash other peoples submissions etc. At the end of the day this is all for fun and we want good vibes only!

Now for the new rules for DLC!

Each day you'll get to post 2 DLC Submissions and 2 Echo Fighter Submissions. Each day we'll do 2 rounds of voting some days we might just pick 1 DLC character, some days we might pick a DLC character and an Echo Fighter it depends on what the submissions we get and the quality of them.

There are 18 DLC Slots and 10 Echo Fighter slots. You can mention what DLC Wave a character will be added in (Free DLC Slot, or Season Pass 1-4) e.g. you can say submit D.Va from Overwatch for Season Pass 4 Fighter #3 if you want or we as judges can choose when a fighter is best set to appear. Though if you're submitting a character for the Free DLC slot you may wanna explain why a characters free, it wouldn't make sense for a big name character like Jinx from League of Legends to be a free playable character as a pre-order bonus or something rather then a paid for DLC character.

That's everything from me so without further ado, let day 69 of Smash Factor begin!

Out of all the rumours I’ve seen, the one that was most fun for me was “characters who use powers you wouldn’t expect to be used for good”, so this is what I mostly based my list on. So, I decided to do a bunch of heroes (whether realistic or not) that could fit the general description. Some of these are jokes (duh) and others are reaches (cosmic force, for example). Remember this is js for fun and I probably forgot something.

Decided to add some extras with the “outlaw” and “dark hero” rumors. Those are VERY subjective, so I definitely misclasified someone.

So yeah, hope you like it! This is supposed in great part to be a showcase of cool characters, but I do truly believe that at least 2 of the revealed characters will be here.

Just wanna make smth clear: this isn't a Midnight Suns roster or anything similar. For this roster, I considered the subgenre inside the subgenere that is Marvel Magic- Monsters and horror. If they're prominent in horror comics (or comics that I'd consider horror) or inside the monster niche (legion of monsters, howling commandos, etc.) they fit here.

The roster is 50/50 heroes and villains, so there's more weird picks in the villain's side than the heroes. Anyways, hope u like it!

This is my full pitch for an Injustice 3 roster, with some DLC seasons and some premier skins. Some extra stuff

- I don't really care about the guests. If I really, really had to choose, I'll go with Johnny Cage, Invincible and Shredder. But I don't really care.

- The specific Dr Fate pictured is Khalid Nassour, not Kent Nelson, who died in I2. Their moveset would be very similar, pretty much identical though.

-The idea is for it to be based a bit on the I3 comic, though not in plot but just in being magic-focused. A lot of the roster can be explained through that or me just liking the characters.

- The boss would probably be Mxy or Trigon

- I decided to stay away from characters that died in the Year 0 comic, Year 1, Injustice 1, Injustice 2 prequel comic or Injustice 2 game, with the exception of Booster since he's a time traveler. Everyone else is fair game.

- Not all premier skins are 100% matches, but they weren't either in I2. It's fine

- I decided to keep it to 1 skin per character, with all of them being brand new. I'd be fine with some being brought over from I2 though, especially Power Girl.

Welcome back to Smash Factor! Banjo-Kazooie won the deadlock, but we have yet another today! So y'all know what to do.

Now before we move onto the Day 51 submissions and before I even make it to the rules I wanna just go over something real quick that I had forgotten to go over in the roster so far.

We will be doing Echo Fighter Submissions after the base roster has ended. We're still unsure whether we'll do it before the DLC rounds or in conjunction with DLC yet but if you wanna submit characters like Lucina or Richter as Echo Fighters in the future you'll get your chance once the base roster is complete.

Now let's go over the rules again real quick.

The rules for Smash Factor are pretty simple-Characters you submit must be eligible for Smash-They have to be Video Game Franchises and the character has to have appeared in a Video Game (E.g. no Android 21 from DBZ Fighterz and none of the Sonic Comic characters who've never appeared in a game).

Echo Fighters will be able to be submitted after the base roster! Unsure whether we'll do it before DLC or in conjunction with DLC yet but if you wanna submit characters like Lucina or Richter as Echoes you'll get your chance once the base roster is complete.

Tell us IN DETAIL why we should pick your character! Even if it's a character that you think speaks for themselves on why they should be added imagine these are the characters auditioning to Sakurai trying to persuade him to add them to the game, we want to see you build a case for your character on why they deserve to be in Smash 6 and convince us that your choice is the one that were should go with here and now. We will very likely ignore any submission that doesn't have any/good enough reasoning in their submission in favour of someone whose made more of an argument for their pick.

The difference could be what pushes us to decide to pick your submission over someone else's.

You get 2 submissions per day! Put them in 2 different comments and give a separate argument for each but you are allowed to submit 2 characters every day for the roster!

Me and the rest of the Judges can't make any submissions, all we can do is discuss and vote on the characters you've all picked-Though we may decide on a Theme for a day if we feel like the roster is in desperate need of something or we may choose to skip a day/ choose a character between ourselves if there's Slim Pickens when it comes to the characters that are submitted.

That's everything from me so without further ado, let Day 52 of Smash Factor begin!
