10/15/2021-10/28/2021

Out of the remaining fighting game snubs, who would you like to see in in a contest next? - Results (51 votes)

Blanka (Street Fighter)19.61% (10 votes)
Christie (Dead or Alive)7.84% (4 votes)
Hwang (Soul Calibur)1.96% (1 vote)
Hwoarang (Tekken)1.96% (1 vote)
Joe Bruiser (WCW vs nWo: World Tour)1.96% (1 vote)
Kick (Dive Kick)0% (0 votes)

Raiden (Mortal Kombat)35.29% (18 votes)
Sheik (Super Smash Bros.)21.57% (11 votes)
Valentine (Skullgirls)9.8% (5 votes)

We have a board poll from two and a half years ago suggesting Sheik should be fully eligible.

We have a board poll from earlier this month suggesting Sheik is the biggest SSB snub.

We have a board poll that just ended suggesting Sheik is the second biggest fighting game snub.

I suggest we get Sheik in. Nominate Sheik for CB11!

(and despite that last poll, I suggest Raiden never faces Sheik one-on-one -- it would be the worst fatality he could receive)

I think Sheik clearly is her own separate character as treated by Nintendo. She doesn't transform from or into Zelda in smash anymore, and her character design is inspired by a non-Ocarina appearance. I think Tetra should be a different character too.

True -- Sheik is more tucked in and less bandaged-looking now with armpit belts and shinguards, yep. She has more dangly headwear now too with less of a torn look.

Yeah, nominating Sheik is stupid. bananor gives a good reason why. Next you'll want us to nominate Mr. L and Dr. Mario. If you want a good joke character you could at least pick something that's actually funny, like Dr. Goomba Tower.

First of all, nothing's intended to be funny about nominating Sheik. She ain't the only Amiibo I own because of the lulz.

To your philosophocal point though, here are two categories that blur together in my mind....

TEN VARIATIONS OF EXISTING CHARACTERS:

Baby Rosalina
Dark Link
Dark Pit
Dark Samus
Devil Jin
Dry Bowser
Metal Mario
Phantom Ganon
Rose Gold Peach
Toon Link

TEN EXISTING CHARACTERS WITH DIFFERENT COSTUMES, TYPES, AND EFFECTS:

Crossdressing Cloud
Dr. Mario
Giga Bowser
Iroquois Pliskin
Mariachi Raiden
Mr. L
Safer-Sephiroth
Super Sonic
Wolf Link
Yellow Yoshi

You and I agree Pliskin shouldn't make it in (though if you want to try out-nominating Solid Snake I support your right!) and we don't want duplicates overrunning our contests. I also think Sheik is different from these twenty other examples though.

1) Sheik convinced us she was someone else. Pliskin didn't.

2) Sheik made a better debut than anything Zelda did beforehand. Pliskin didn't ever outshine Snake.

3) Sheik has legitimate popularity outside of her original origin story. Pliskin doesn't.

4) Sheik is also more popular than Zelda in that outside source of popularity.

And then separately, look at all these other SSB characters who got into the contest right after being announced -- not even playable yet, just announced.

2007: 5 contest newcomers debuted from Brawls hype.
2013: 3 contest newcomers debuted from SSB4s hype.
2018: 3 contest newcomers debuted from Ultimates hype.

It appears the origins of these characters matter less here than if people are happy they are in Smash, and Sheik is a Smash-favorite. Pliskin ain't got that.

It's time for Sheik. #DownB

I've been gone awhile, but the goal never changed: ensure Sheik (Super Smash Bros. Ultimate) gets into the next Character Battle. This will take many nominations as well as perhaps out-nominating Princess Zelda. #DownB

No fifty-post explanation this time...just your friendly reminder that she's our biggest contest snub remaining and she's consistently one of the best characters in the Smash series.

It's time for a new legend. Let's get her in.

So did you nut on the guys face or what

As in why Trint didn't like me? Never really knew. We never really had anything together except a little bit of football where he would quit after seeing I was ahead of him for free safety. It felt clear to me he didn't like me from the beginning, but like we didn't fight or say anything nasty about it...just a demeanor.

Before that, Trint used to steal Toosie Rolls from a fat kid and throw them at him in the middle of the night at 4H Camp before my brother would break it up and get Trint in trouble. I'm stretching for reasons here but like I don't know what else to say about why he didn't like me.
