(Since the IP User brought this up first, I'll go over how I feel. If Etika was still with us, I defintely think he would be happy with Byleth's inclusion. Maybe if he was still here and showed positivity, we wouldn't be facing that massive like to dislike ratio right now. But, even if it's nice to think about, I don't think Byleth was purposely included as a tribute to him. Remember that the Fighter Pass characters were picked before November 2018. Anyway, back to the less serious stuff).

Oh boy I am laughing so hard! We go a pass of 5 characters, each of them being third party charcters. How do they end it off? Not just with a first party character, but a Fire Emblem character. Oh boy, we're gonna be facing salt for weeks now. People seem pissed.

I'm not mad at all. I didn't really want Byleth, but I have showed interest in him in the past. I like how he uses other weapons in his moveset, which hopefully will answer peoples complaints of all the FE characters being sword users (even if Byleth's main weapon is a sword). Still would have liked a time rewind ability though.

And those Mii Costumes! We got a dude from Assassins Creed, a Rabbid, X, Super10ZX, and Cuphead suprisingly. If we can't get Indie characters as characters, these full on Mii Costumes seem good.

Plus, 6 more characters left. And now that first parties are back on the table for DLC... Bandana Waddle Dee anyone?

It feels so weird though. 2 days ago I was looking at the Geno thread on SmashBoards, and one guy who has some form of insider sources said the backlash from this character would be big. Seeing it now, it feels like I was foreshadowed to the apocalypse.

Also, John from GameXplain was clearly now trying to warn us the whole time. He was saying the last FP character would be a first party for about a month now.
