Okay, guys! Big news! Now, I don't know about you, but I am a huge fan of King K. Rool, and I really want him as a DLC in Super Smash Bros. more than anyone else. I already voted for him in the Smash Ballot about 100 times from multiple different computers, and it looks like it might off paid off with this new leak! Take a gander at these two goodies that were found on the internet:

Okay, so the first thing here is a picture of a video, which is titled "Set sail for a fight!" Hmm...which Nintendo character do we know that likes going around/fighting by galleons? I'll give you a hint:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ycfa7XxlWmI Also, notice how the video before this one are the reveal trailers for other fighters in the game. That means it has to be at least an announcement trailer for someone, and, out of all the requested DLC fighters for Super Smash Bros., King K. Rool is the only one who is in anyway boat/sailing themed.

The next main clue out of these two is something really eyebrow-raising. It's the playlist for all the Super Smash Bros. themed videos. Notice how, right with the other character announcement videos, there is a "private video." Where is this video that was titled "Set sail for a fight," then? Could it possibly be the "Private Video," which being is held back until the big announcements Nintendo has coming up for Super Smash Bros.? It's certainly possible.

Let this all soak in for a minute.

Yep. My. Mind. Has. Been. Blown.

Wouldn't surprise me, considering K. Rool was one of the highest voted characters for the Ballot.

if this happens

i will run around my backyard and sing "one of us"

Better not be another well done leak or something e_e But dunno if they'd leave things to be datamined so early, they must've learned with Splatoon by now.

If this happens...I will literally sing "King K. Rool's Finest Hour" from a megaphone while skydiving from Outer Space.

i feel like i'm the only one who would rather have someone else win the ballot :\

should i give up on rayman getting in yet?

I don't really like K. Rool that much because I've yet to play DKC, but the main thing is that we could really use him. It's a villain(out of the 3 we have), not a sword user, and a heavy character(which I don't think we had any DLC of yet). It's more to make the roster a bit more balanced instead of favorites choice.

If that was the case I'd be still cheering for Wonder Red and Shantae ._.'

Looks interesting, but I will not start hyping, just for sure. We will see.

You're not. To me, he seems more less known overall and only really got some fans for him when the context of Smash came up. Part of me questions how many who want him have truly played his game and know anything about him other than wanting him in Smash for the sake of wanting him.

If he does ever get announced, I feel like there will be a ton of hype right when the announcement happens, then kinda die down fast with only a niche group being truly interested and ultimately only have a handful of people who seriously play him outside of randoms or just messing around and playing characters they don't normally.

I like King "Cruel" enough to want him in, but you know me.

Seriously, though, the evidence proves nothing.

I don't know it could be fake...

You that people due to tend to leak stuff before it the event happends.

I just thought of something... What if it's a Shantae leak instead? ...I personally hope it's not.

I myself do want him in, not only because I like him, but also for the reasons you stated regarding the roster.

Also, I'm pretty sure that this is fake. :/

Even if the first picture is faked, there is still a Private Video with the other character announcement trailers in Nintendo's Video Playlist, as seen in the second source.

I'm a big supporter of K. Rool, but this leak is both a couple months old and isn't real. The "Set sail for battle!" thumbnail is simply a stock image and the private video is actually just a random Smash Run video.

Also, we have the All Purpose Smash 4 and Amiibo thread for a reason you guys. Use them.

Fake leak, and the private video is the Smash Run video.
