John MacArthur announced to be included as playable character in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate Roster



This week at Nintendo Direct, Masahiro Sakurai announced that they have finally decided to include the most fan-requested character in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate: Chancellor John F. MacArthur.

When asked why it wasn't until now that MacArthur was included in the roster, Sakurai had this to say: "Our policy simply doesn't allow any school presidents to be on the roster, but as soon as MacArthur became chancellor, that changed everything!"

MacArthur's playable move-set is as follows:

Special - Study Bible Slam: The chancellor throws a heavy, 25th Anniversary edition MacArthur Study Bible that works as a projectile attack.

Down Special - Strange Fire Extinguisher:  MacArthur summons a shield around himself that renders him invincible to any magic projectiles or attacks.

Up Special - Expositional Elbow-Drop: MacArthur flies into the air before quickly coming down with a powerful elbow drop on-top of his secular opponents.

Side Special - J-Mac Smack: MacArthur does a powerful shoulder charge, using skills from his football days, that is capable of knocking an opponent off the stage.

Final Smash - Doctrine Demolition - MacArthur pulls out the word of God, which very literally pierces the other players through the divisions of soul and of spirit, of joints and marrow, immediately removing two stock from every enemy combatant (because they didn't fear the second death).

Fans were thrilled by the announcement, and the subject immediately sprung to 1# trending on twitter.

Also, Nintendo announced that new Mii Fighter costumes resembling Abner Chou, Paul Plew, and Grant Horner are on their way.
