User blog:Agentluke0322/Announcement about Smash Bros Lawl 42

I originally planned to have Marina as the final fighter for Lawl 42, with MMD Iris being the last one made before Lawl 43. However, with the number of newcomers in the latter outnumbering the veterans from the former, I decided to add a few more fighters to Lawl 42.

First up: DLC Pack 2.

With the recent announcement of Spirits Mode in Smash Bros Ultimate, I decided to make a separate DLC Pack for some Spirits that could work as fighters. 8 characters are currently planned for this pack, but more may be added.

The current 8 are: With that out of the way, let's talk about new base fighters.
 * 1) Octoling (Splatoon)
 * 2) Zero (Mega Man)
 * 3) Vulpix (Pokemon)
 * 4) Zoroark (Pokemon)
 * 5) Shantae
 * 6) Cranky Kong (Donkey Kong)
 * 7) Rabbid Peach (Mario/Rabbids)
 * 8) Duster (Mother/Earthbound)

In the slot previously occupied by Best Naruto, there will now reside Red Panda, a fighter similar in concept to Actual Sloth from Lawl What If. 3 new slots now exist, as well. These slots are (as of now) occupied by Team Chaotix (Sonic), Roll (Mega Man), and Wolf Link (The Legend of Zelda).

While we are gaining fighters, 2 current fighters are moving on. Rush Blaze, despite being planned early on, is now being replaced with... Blaze the Cat. So, not as much a replacement as it is an expansion on sources for moves. The 2nd character leaving Lawl 42 will be ItsADogAndGame. This is due to the fact their quota as a 2nd codec character being better filled by Marina. While his replacement is undecided at this point, it will be filled at some point.

Finally, for stages for these new characters, Blaze the Cat is keeping Rush Blaze's stage. I have ideas for the stages for Team Chaotix and Wolf Link, being Power Plant (from Sonic Heroes) and The Twilight Realm (from Twilight Princess) respectively.

That's the end of this announcement, but if you have ideas for ItsADogAndGame's replacement or stages for the DLC Pack 2 characters, Red Panda, or Roll, leave them in the comments.
