6 Fire Emblem Fortune’s Weave Characters Who Need to Be in the Next Smash Bros Game
The article nominates six characters from *Fire Emblem: Fortune’s Weave* for a future *Super Smash Bros.* game, arguing that the next Nintendo console could bring another series representative to the roster. It suggests that new fighters should add distinct styles, rather than repeat the sword-focused combat already common among Fire Emblem characters.
The picks include Eshmel for spear work and magic, Peppe for comic speed with little strength, and Cai for his spear, fire attack and possible mount-based abilities. Goliath would offer a heavily armoured tank fighter, while Fabio is proposed as an aggressive magic user; the article also considers Jasmine’s counter-focused style and says Buccar lacks a distinctive combat approach.

New here? Start with this
Fire Emblem is a Nintendo role-playing game series in which players follow a story and command characters in battles. Super Smash Bros. is a separate Nintendo series where characters from different games fight each other, with each fighter bringing their own moves and abilities.
When a new Smash Bros. game is made, its roster can include familiar characters and newcomers from Nintendo games. Fire Emblem already has several fighters in the series, many of whom use swords, so fans often discuss whether another character could bring a different style.
Fortune’s Weave is the Fire Emblem game featured in the article. Its characters include fighters who use spears, magic or heavy armour, giving them possible approaches distinct from sword-based combat.
Both sides, in good faith
The strongest fair case each way — we don't pick a winner.
The case for
Adding a Fortune’s Weave fighter could keep Smash’s roster fresh and give Fire Emblem characters more varied play styles. Eshmel’s spear and magic, Cai’s possible mounted moves, or Peppe’s speed could broaden the series’ representation beyond sword combat, while Goliath or Fabio might offer distinctive heavy or magical approaches.
The case against
A new Fire Emblem slot could take space from characters in other Nintendo series, especially if the proposed fighters’ moves would feel familiar alongside existing sword, magic or counter-based fighters. Since the article itself sees Buccar as lacking a distinctive approach and some abilities as speculative, waiting for a character with a clearly original moveset may better serve the roster.
