Moveset Competition v2.0!

A continuation of the old moveset competition thread in order to attempt to spice things up around here. Since Kiddragon seems to have left I will take over as main host I guess.

RULES:

Each week, I’ll be giving out a specific theme or general character idea (ex: Car salesman, or spiders as an overall theme). It will be up to anyone who is interested in participating that week to think up a character based on the theme/character given (it doesn’t need to be anything real thought out honestly), and then you give them a Smash Bros.-styled moveset! Movesets will be judged mostly on creativity and how viable it would be in real Smash. The character it is based on doesn’t really need to be developed in the slightest, you could literally say that “this dude is a guy who sells cars down by the mall” or “this is a girl who is best friends with a spider and the spider does things for her” or whatever. We’re looking for creativity!

For those who wish to participate during a specific week, you must PM the judges your moveset and ideas no later than 1 week after the theme/idea has been announced. People who wish to judge for a certain week can PM me.

Movesets are required to have the whole kit, basically. Normals, specials, you name it. A whole list will be provided at the end of this post.

Winners will be glorified in the “Hall of Crusade,” an imaginary location located inside Smash King’s closet. Basically you’ll have some nice bragging rights, though occasionally we might offer something a bit more tangible, nothing amazing though.

Signing up! I need motivation!!!

I like the idea of the winner choosing the next character, but if you go that route you'll probably want to set this rule.

The character must be relatively well known, for example you can have Lara Croft, but not Brian Johnson from My Parents are Aliens. This is to keep the competition fixed on creativity, and less on obscure knowledge.


EDIT: Oh and sign me up.

I hope I know what I'm doing.

Sign up pls

*raises hand*

All of you have been added to the OP as entrants for the first round

Sure sign me up

Alrighty, here's the character you shall design a moveset for this week...

Spoiler:

oh god   

Well, this should be interesting!

I know very little about Minecraft but I still know the basics, I'll give it a go.

Oh great balls of fire! Am I late to the signup? If not sign me up!

Essentially this. If I'm not too late as well, I'd like to sign up. If I'm too late for this one, sign me up for the next.

I can do this. I've played a little of Minecraft to understand the physics and gameplay of it.

I can sign anyone up who still wants to participate

I chose Steve because I knew it'd make a few people disappointed

I'm joining this.

I assume all sources for the moveset should be canon, correct?

That would be ideal.

Mind if I assist with judging SP?

That's totally fine, I was thinking about making it for every 3 entrants there's a judge, so

Everyone, make sure you PM your movesets to myself AND Blitz when you are done with them!

Oh god yes, I would LOVE to join this. Count me in.

...And even if Steve is a bit of a rough start, we have a lot to work with. Hope this catches on!

I'd like to sign up as well if it's not too late.

Added both of you, bringing the total roster up to 11! Pretty exciting

Is it allowed to make a full moveset, and not just one that lists off the specials?

Specials + Final Smash + Playstyle are all that's required to enter, but you can include as much information as you'd like

Just a reminder that the deadline for your entries is TOMORROW!

I know I may be asking a bit early, but may I judge for round 2?
