Is it wrong to be a tad suspicious? Like they needed to make this post today because they want to keep to 3 fighters a week, but something else is planned for this week that might mess that up?

If it's just Incineroar and Ken then they only could afford to have like 5-6 weeks of 2 characters but if people are expecting more than they are expecting two more right? so that would leave like 2-3 weeks of two characters or so.

I think you're too suspicious. They definitlely have the blog updates planned out ahead of time and hey're basically on track after skipping update 143. If something were to happen this week it would have to be so out of nowhere that they couldn't fix the blog in time but even then they could easily just run today's fighter and skip another fighter later in the week.

Why would they have to fix the blog if an announcement was planned in advance?

Ok look I made an assumption based on what you were saying before, but is it instead the flipside that you think they have something planned for this week like the announcement of I guess 3 fighters?
It's just weird since they always start the week with a fighter. It feels like there was a reason they needed to start this week with an item.

I think it'd be more weird to have another smash announcement, and it'd need ot be a meaty one if they can't even lead the week with a character video in this scenario, within the same month as the last one. Like at least wait a week and kick it to october.

Maybe they have more announcements than they have the time to space them out

These two remain my favorite in the whole press kit. Let's create the same exact scenario twice but in different parts of the stage and Pit facing the other way

e: meant to preview, not double post. oops
one of these says Rockman and the other says Mega Man, so I'm guessing it's a languages thing

We could still have a Robin situation.

But I don't think this blog post tells us anything about any future announcements.

Still a little weird when we have only one version of the Jigglypuff on great bay photo, though
Maybe they planned to have some screens about stamina mode on the blog and just chose against it or something

why does Richter look so much smaller using the axe
Perspective. Simon is holding it behind himself pointed slightly away from the camera, which is located nearest Simon's opposite hand, while the camera is closer to the axe in Richter's picture at a less extreme angle and he's holding it at a slight angle towards the camera.

All the Smash Bros. characters are dropped onto an island like in PUBG/Fortnite

Who wins? Who loses?
Kirby goes to Tilted Towers and swallows some npc taking a shower and hides in the bathroom all game like a goober but gets killed at the end since he didn't pick up any weapons. Snake does the same thing in his box but loses because he doesn't have the good box from MGSV

Luigi managed to make it into the top 5 running around like a fool and hiding everytime he hears gunshots. Peach ends up winning because she uses her Toads like frying pan deflecting all bullets, she has a belt on over her dress and 3 Toads hanging on it, plus the Toad she holds in her hands

pretty much this. Their models arent much different, its just high angle vs low angle
Its also foreshortened to where one axe also looks much larger than the other in the frame (axe going away from camera on the left, coming toward the camera on the right pic)

I actually do think that Richter image is just in-development screwiness, he's holding the axe differently and it does seem much bigger

I don't know about that, having Alucard instead of a whip-wielding Belmont as the first Castlevania character would be like having Cyborg Raiden instead of Snake.

If you're gonna add a second Castlevania or Metal Gear character, those two are next in line for their respective series.
I only want Simon gone, I would keep Richter.

Yes, I know, echos vs original characters, bla bla. I would get rid of Daisy and Chrom too to make time for both of them!

they asked why it looked smaller, not why the pose was different
While things do shrink and grow for moves, its also clearly foreshortened because theyre completely different camera placement
