Can we get DLC privilege videos dedicated to the characters from Smash games they were introduced introduced in?

[@Team-Eclipse6024]

Honestly, I can understand giving Jordan a chance but some of these were too balanced so here are some of my suggestions. Mario: his ladder combos don't kill early enough currently, so we replace his current up-b with shoryuken (except you don't have to do the inputs) DK: taking notes from Krool and Kazuya, his grabs now have super armour. Yoshi: his current play style is way to interesting, so his egg roll is now a carbon copy of spindash (ironic).

[@UmbrotheUmbreon]

My god this was amazing! Seeing the original cast get some remodeling in mechanics is satisfying. I feel like Luigi's mechanic should have implemented more of his lightning powers and did stun effects, but everything else was pretty solid Nick. Also RIP Jordan.

[@rodrickgoldberg2324]

If you feel like making a sequel to this, I have an idea for a K.Rool DLC privilege. When K.Rool loses, he pulls a hacker level cheat to get one last chance at a comeback. The hack changes depending on the rule set. Time matches? The clock rewinds by 15 more seconds if K.Rool is not in first. Stock? When K.Rool loses his last life, he spontaneously gets one more. Effectively forcing everyone to fight at a handicap. Stamina? When his stamina hits zero, he recovers 100 HP.

It'd probably be better if Kirby's inhale killed an opponent when the opponent is over 100% rather than Kirby being over 100%. Not only would this match the source material because of how Mid Bosses work in the Kirby series, but it would probably be better overall because of how light Kirby is

I think the kirby mechanic should've been backwards, like, kirby takes the opponent to a high enough percent and then swallowing inhaled opponents would just kill them instantly, similar to how Zelda's final smash works, where using on someone who's at 100% of above kills them instantly

[@Hammy2406]

[@potatojuiceultra]

to be fair, Kirby's vanilla neutral B could 100% pass as a DLC mechanic, there's literally unique models and animations for every single matchup in the game
