Shulk [Xenoblade] Discussion

Discuss whether or not you think Shulk should be added to Super Smash Bros. Crusade.

Oh, he totally needs to be in Crusade.
But only if he uses at least most of his Smash 4 moveset.

Support!

I support Shulk!

Oh, yeah!

I'm really feeling it!

If Shulk gets in, I feel like he needs a new side special, it feels too generic for what Shulk can do.

How is it generic? It's the only attack in the history of Smash Bros that is more powerful if you hit the opponent's back. No other attack ever had that, and I have no idea who else could possibly have such an attack...

Perhaps because it's literally him just jumping forward and slashing with his sword? An added effect doesn't make it too much less generic

Agreed about the side special.

Tho I'mma miss the back slack scream.

Is there any reason we can't make Back Slash his forward smash? (Move forward smash to forward tilt since it resembles Slit Edge) To keep the uniqueness but open up the side special to be... well, special.

I haven't played Xenoblade, but Shaker Edge stuns, and Monado Purge does something called 'Aura Seal', which sounds interesting enough to be a special (could it disable specials or something?).

Not played Xenoblade yet, but Shulk could fit Crusade's never ending blast.

Support!

Shulk is one of the most unique and entertaining character I have every played. I will support him.

I never said anything about how I wanted Shulk in Crusade

Now I have

It could also work as a good dash attack

I think the reason that black slash is a special is so you can do it in the air. If you couldn't do back slash in the air, then it wouldn't be as usable.

Shulk is the best character hands down.

Backslash off stage for the win! Support for the Monado boi right here.
Idk if the Monado Arts would translate well. hopefully they do, but i can see that being annoying to program xD

Support!

He's just so much fun to play, and he's cool!

I support. I love this guy. He's my main.
