Victory Song

Never cared for this character, but he does look pretty cool. I say screw it, let him join the game.

I had this guys game once. My parents, who I love dearly, may've not anticipated me playing it for one day...

But, personally, I don't think he should be in Crusade. He's from like, 2 third party Gamecube games. The moveset is good, but it is about entirely about his boomerang..

I support the character, but I'm pretty iffy on the moveset. I think he needs a little more to make him truly unique.

I'm not convinced that this guy should be in Crusade.

I mean, why should he?

I don't see any reasons at all besides the fact that his weapon of choice is a boomerang.

I have played movie-based platformers more satisfying than Ty the Tasmanian Tiger.

I think that sort of sums it up really.

I was thinking about doing Ty so, good thing I checked first.
Honestly, there's too much boomerang, not enough biting.  I just replayed the game 100% and about 40% of the fighting I did was either underwater or biting things.  Besides, for Ty to make it into Crusade (if anyone else even wants him, no one seems to) he would need to be less ranged, which is weird, but it's got to be balanced.

Second note:  My ideas for Ty were stationary special to switch boomerang type between the normal, flame, frost, and electric rangs.  And somehow include his glide ability.  (I'm still working on it :/)

I know Crusade tends to go for obscurity here and there when it comes to the roster, however I don't think this is a character who has anything to offer. His series isn't anything impactful or memorable. His move set is nothing but biting and boomerangs which is rather generic these days when you look at many of the roster. I will have to say no on this one. His series needs to have more of a presence and move set needs more variety
