Subreddit We're the /r/SmashBros modteam! Ask us anything!

Hey r/smashbros, as part of our moderator application campaign, we decided to do an Ask Us Anything, today on Sunday, the 25th of April.

Have you ever wondered how the job of an /r/smashbros moderator works? If you have specific questions, this is your chance! You can find out how the job works, how we feel about specific topics/rules or simply which character we main.

Drop your questions below, and we'll be answering them for the whole day.

If you get interested in doing moderator work yourself, don't be afraid to apply now, since we still have our mod apps open (until May, 1st!!)!

EDIT: Alright, crew, we are officially done with questions at the moment. If anyone has any last minute additions we'll do our best to get to those too. I think I can speak for all of us when I say it was a blast getting to do this and getting to interact with you all personally. See you next time!

Ratchet & Clank was my very first video game. They have always been my dream characters no matter how unrealistic it might be. Seeing Banjo & Kazooie coming to Smash brought me some hope because they are also a platformer duo from the late 90s/early 00s and their franchise is being owned by one of Nintendos big rivals (Microsoft). The chances are still very slim though, way more people seem to want Crash Bandicoot or another PlayStation rep.

Still holding my hopes up though.

Elma; Xenoblade X is my favorite Xenoblade game and I think she'd have a very unique and interesting kit (though hopefully not a toxic one, depending on if they tried to include ghost factory in it in some way). It's a pity that they seem to have passed over her barring a miracle in these final dlc announcements. Not much point in making a character when the game she's from is the only good game still tethered to the dead console that is the Wii U.

Either Beatrice from Umineko or Estelle Bright from Trails in the Sky!

One’s a VN and the other’s not really super popular so uh..... yeah I’m not gonna get either lol

I’ll settle for Phoenix Wright.

Viewtiful Joe or Travis Touchdown 100%

I'd settle for Crash, Spyro, Ratchet, or Sly Cooper though.

I'm the Geno shill, you got me.

I'd also like to see one of Golden Sun's Felix/Issac/Ivan, Brian from Quest 64, or not-a-Ness-clone Mike Jones from StarTropics.

Doom Slayer.

Give him his Super Shotgun and make him a rushdown/zone breaker type of character. His down B would be a command grab with the unique ability to Star KO when the enemy's shield is broken to simulate a Glory Kill.

Frogger Bass from the Mega Man series. M&B is nostalgic for me (I played the GBA version. So it probably is nostalgia ha) and Bass is such a cool character. His moveset can be similar but distinct from MM rather easily and cmon he already has a double jump from that game so why not?
