The Doom Slayer is the Perfect Fighter for Super Smash Bros. Ultimate

Jacob S. from Link-Cable writes: "Last month, we started our mini-series featuring the six next fighters that should be joining the Super Smash Bros. Ultimate roster by introducing Dr. Eggman as our first selection, but for today’s selection, we will be going a different route. One that not only highlights one of gaming’s most important faces but one that may very well be too hardcore to even be placed in the roster to being with. We are of course talking about the Doom Slayer who has rip n’ teared his way through countless adventures over the years and he will be doing so as our second pick to be joining the Super Smash Bros. Ultimate roster."

Absolutely this. Doomguy would have been waaayyyy better than a crappy ARMS character.

Smash bros isnt just about adding characters that people recognize and demand. You have to realize that when melee came out, hardly anybody recognized marth, roy, ness, ice climbers or game and watch.

Plus arms is almost guaranteed to be interesting from a gameplay perspective. A high range fighter like dhalsim.

I disagree. He's not recognizable, since you rarely see him in 3rd person. The Doom series have been around forever, but Doom guy is not iconic. People who are mainly casuals will mistaken him for Master Chief. Use that SSBU character slot for more deserving characters

The ARMS characters aren't exatly all that recognizable either, ARMS is a game that did meh and probably won't see a sequel, while the Doom games are still doing great.

specialguest1884d ago

I agree. The ARMS character was bad, but it's at least a Nintendo character

Kornholic1883d ago

He's on the cover of Doom (2016) and appears many times during Doom Eternal's cut scenes. You are simply wrong.

specialguest1883d ago

Nope, try again. Doom slayer is only known to people who follow the game. He's not a Ryu, Snake, and so many more known and iconic guest characters

Hungryalpaca1883d ago

People know who the DOOM guy is.

gamerben1884d ago

I dont think it will happen. Yes bayo, snake and joker are from m rated games, but the violence in all those games is pretty tame compared to doom. Japan is more touchy about violence as well.

Even if he was added, he would be watered down and fans would be pissed. Dont expect him to whip out a chainsaw or perform a glory kill final smash

gamerben1884d ago

It won't happen for the same reason mortal kombat vs street fighter isnt a thing

AK911883d ago

No way he'd be far too OP
