I'm just gonna throw out this and that's that Etika in general is most definitely the character that got the short end of the stick.

Not only did he get yeeted out of KfAD2, his sources were BARELY explored in KfaD1.

As while most of the other characters in King for a Day one their sources were decently shown off, I feel like Etika got jiped. He only got two rips, not counting his theme, and while I can assure you this isn't favoritism as I wasn't really of fan of his type of stuff, and his picks in music (real life, not in the tourney, irrelevant but same goes for Lil Uzi Vert's music, I just don't like that genre in general, I'm willing to listen to regular rap folks and in fact offen do considering they're HEAVILY used in the mashup community, just whatever genre Uzi is, not a fan, goes for a lot of other people like that style too like Billie Elish or modern Kanye songs), I REALLY feel like it was wasted potential.

I mean, yes, obviously SiIva did a wise decision for the time considering the stuff Etika was saying on Twitter before he was put in a mental hospital and "fixed" himself/his brain, and they had no way of knowing what would happen later or where that would go, so he was already somewhat back to normal by the time they announced his removal in the Direct.

I just feel like he was jiped overall in BOTH tourneys, after understanding the jokes in his versus quotes, he did have some pretty good humor to him, and after looking a bit more into his channel and in-jokes of it for his moveset I was making for King for a Day 1 (yes, will post soon, don't worry, sorry about sitting on my ass about it >_>) he had a LOT more than what we actually got, plus the Smash Bros. category of his was pretty much just ignored, even though granted Lifelight was the only Ultimate-related thing we had then, but SiIva could have just gone with other iconic Smash themes like the Melee intro or stuff from Subspace Emissary. He had Xenoblade, anime rips, NieR, Minecraft, even fucking Momo! He had a lot more than what was actually given, but I'm at least happy he knew he was in, and supported it, the personal visit was a really nice touch.
