It should be Eggman, then Tails, then Knuckles... Then Amy or Shadow.

Knuckles would be super boring IMO outside of The Memes, at least Tails has gadgets, flying, attacks with a tail which only Charizard does at this point IIRC, the perfect Final Smash in the form of the Tornado, and is cute.

Eggman would just work super well with his Eggmobile and its different modes, though. Kinda annoyed Bowser Jr. stole his thunder.

Finished grabbing the platinum of KH3 just in time for the ReMind DLC. Can't wait for Sora.

The trailer should have him walking upon stained glass of Smash Bros with some characters on the ground. Like this but more Smash Bros-related.

Here's a little game, if you had to pick six characters that would draw more internet outrage than a fighter pass of six more Fire Emblem characters, who would they be? Only restriction is they must all be characters from games that already have fighters in Smash, and each character has to be upsetting or controversial in some way.

we need more vehicle-based fighters in general
Dr. Wily being revealed as an AT was disheartening

Fighting Bayonetta cause he thinks Madama Butterfly is a heartless. As hype as I think Master Chief's trailer is going to be, I think Sora is the only one that could be even more hype due to the already cross-over intensive nature of Kingdom Hearts.

I still play Badge Arcade daily. Can I swerve to Nikki or Ashley? Or is upgrading the Bunny my only option?

Pretty sure making Knuckles playable before Tails will get you excommunicated from the Church of Sonic.

Geno, Waluigi, Cinderace (another fire type final starter), Link's Awakening Remake/"Dream" Link (because 'nother Link), Shadow the Hedgehog, and Donkey Kong Jr.

Coincidentally I'd be fine with most of them but they'd get people so mad

that's a weird list since Waluigi, Geno, Dream Link and Shadow would make majority of smash community happy tho.

That's actually good idea there. Also they could go with Mr. Game and Watch too. Remember Mr. Game and Watch in Brawl Subspace!

You know a Smash Bros. themed Station of Awakening might be a clever way to get a Kingdom Hearts stage in without needing to use Disney stuff.

Yeah, that would works too.

The only one of these that would make me mad (until I got over it) would be Cinderace. He's the starter I picked in Shield and he's cool, but... I'm just so tired of bipedal, human sized Pokemon in Smash at this point. Give me some actual monsters damn it.

For max rage we wouldn't need 6 characters, just one Goku. People would go nuclear

There are TONS of Sonic characters that would upset people far more than Shadow or Silver would (neither would even be all that bad, really).

Like Charmy Bee. Or Erazor Djinn. Or Chris Thorndyke.

There are better representatives for Tales franchise but I'm totally okay with Lloyd if Sakurai decided to pick him out of all characters. However, I guess you are trying to convince yourself that Tales is out of race so you could feel better about Kos-Mos' chance?

I don't even think Tales had any chance getting in Smash Bros overall.

as someone that previously said Lloyd would happen in smash dlc I feel like this post is really unfair. It's not like I hate Lloyd. I'm a huge tales fan and it is obvious I want KOS-MOS but pinning this on me seems really weird.

FWIW with my list I went with characters that are somewhat viable - Shadow is the most viable Sonic character that'd get people mad, I think. And DK Jr. over Dixie is something that could happen, even if it'd be real weird.

I could easily do that just with Sonic characters, game ones even

Zazz (Sega puts him in stuff, no one knows why, even literally everyone else in his team is slightly more interesting)
Sonic Man (an interesting joke within context of Sonic '06, not so much when playable)
Werehog (could be fun to play, but wasn't that fun in original, so fans would rather burn him)
Tails Doll (Meeeeemeeeees)
Sonic With A Sword
Forces Avatar

If that's cheating:
Emboar (fire fighting starter)
Dhalsim (another SF 3P + stuff)
Adam Malkovich (symbol of 55% stuff wrong with Other M)
Pink Gold Peach (and you dislike Waluigi?)
Kiddy Kong
The one companion from Persona 5 even Persona 5 fans hate

It's tough since your reputation is Kos-Mos fanboy here so you are willing to believe in any rumors or hints that would profits Kos-Mos in long run. So any disconfirmation or negative stuffs for Namco Bandai, and the better chance Kos Moe could have.

Even getting second Namco-Bandai rep isn't guarantee as well

Worms WMD....you know, now that I think about it, the titular characters of the Worms series would make for a fantastic Smash moveset. B for the rocket launcher, Up+B for ninja rope, Final Smash being either the Holy Hand Grenade or the Concrete Donkey.
I'd personally see bazooka mounted as one of smash attacks instead, but yeah, a Worm could work really well.
