Banana Guard unironically more hype than Joker

Feels like a “We had the model so might as well” character given he was part of Finn or Bugs’s kit. Forget which. Doesn’t seem like the kind of thing you do with a sub-30 roster, but again it feels like they had the assets already so they decided to make a character of it. So it’s not “taking” a spot or anything.

banana guard is a piranha plant kind of pick. im into it. the odd picks are part of Smash's appeal and if you're going to mimic Smash you might as well use what works

Banana Guard just seems really plain on the whole. The weirdest part is that this is one of their few new characters for the relaunch.

Apparently the last character for the new release is datamined as Jason Vorhees, which might be interesting!

I'm more excited for Banana Gaurd than Joker. I love the spear moveset. The helicopter move looks very satisfying to use. That being said, it's funny for him to be considered a "joke" character considering how simple and not weird his moveset looks. It's not really the same as Piranha Plant

I remember he used to be some kind of item summon in the old version, and if that memory is true he got the assist trophy upgrade treatment rather than being made from scratch.

FireWorksWell posted:Did that happen in ranked too? I'm fairly certain it always happened, I think there were some other moves that spawned items when you broke something but it's been a while since I've played. There was some kind of ray gun that shot Rick and Morty guys, and I remember banana guard just ran forward with the spear. There were definitely Items and he was almost certainly one of them.

I do remember seeing banana guards once or twice, but I figure most Bugs just didn't bother with the move when they had all that melee goodness to enjoy

There's actually 18 items that can spawn in the game! Only 6 of them are actually from anything. The Banana Guard is from the TV Item, which summons either Banana Guards or pie throwing robots (both from Adventure Time).

Oh, right, Bugs had that Acme crate he could drop. Either drop it from the air or spawn it on the ground and knock it at people. Breaking those open also spawned the items, and he used the crate a lot. The items themselves were small and easy to miss, though, so it makes sense to not remember them.

this is going around https://twitter.com/FumoLeaksMk1/status/1792387898639052934 and there's a big trailer hitting tomorrow morning https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qX5AUVIAg_o the tags on this video list every character who's appearing in it, which includes the reveals of Jason Voorhees, The Powerpuff Girls, and Agent Smith. so we'll see those soon. including Joker and the banana guard, that's five new characters for the relaunch, which is pretty respectable.

Honestly I was not hyped at all for Jason but now that I know he's a big beefy boy I'm way more interested Agent Smith instead of Neo is strange Macaluso fucked around with this message at 10:18 on May 20, 2024 |

I do wonder what demographic the game is aiming for, as it's colorful and goofy and seems to appeal to kids. But a ton of the characters are things I imagine kids aren't super into. Like, Jason and Agent Smith are cool to me, but I'm a decrepit adult that grew up with those franchises. Then again, if you are going to run a free-to-play game, I guess pandering to the nostalgia of people with disposable income is the better move.
