What Multiversus Could Be if Warner Bros. Cared 

They haven't done that since Melee which is why I specified

Damn straight. Get the older audience into it. Plus it'd be funny for the memes.

He's not coming. Would be such a weird random pick.

@@CrystalMang0 Do you not realize that the Sopranos was one of the most beloved American television series of all time?

If I can’t get Walter white then I at least would like Tony Soprano for sure. Or getting both would be awesome but that might be asking for to much lol.

@@Wallie33. No way Walter White is coming! He’s too weird and I hate having a drug dealer clash with Finn

I'm glad you liked it :)

By the end of this I looked at this roster in a beautiful horror

How about the CEO of of from smiling friends that could be a fun bosses

Twister (Twister) You have to fight a Tornado as the Wicked Witch

I got a few others: Nevermore (RWBY) Wilma (Flinestones) Spike (Tom and Jerry) Mr. Nimbus (Rick and Morty) Rick Prime (Rick and Morty) Venomous (Ok KO) Rob (The Amazing World of Gumball) Lord Business (LEGO)

Starro pls

Shao kahn can be a character

To be perfectly honest, I don't have that much faith in the game to get better, though it's not a lack of faith in the devs; but rather, Warner Bros. as a whole. Especially with Zaslav in charge.

Fleentstones?!

@@TheNerdIncarnate Aaauuuggghh, grand dad...

GRAND DAD! What the F$#@!

Thank you! Too bad WB has decided to dump Rooster Teeth.

@@TheNerdIncarnate Yeah it's a shame, hopefully DB and all of RT's other shows can find a new home.

Glad you enjoyed it. I think you'll like a lot of my upcoming stuff then.

It's a shame that there's not really a chance anymore due to the RT situation.

Such a shame but imagine if they recorded individual character announcements for the single fights that ended with “and with that said let’s get ready for a death battle)

Fionna got in on virtue of being able to be made a clone. Had I been doing all unique, I would've gone with a different character, most like Ice King.

@@TheNerdIncarnate yea true! Welp still a nice replacement for a RWBY character tho ;p

I had other characters in mind to replace the RWBY cast

It was a lot for both myself and my editor, but we're both extremely proud of it. I'm glad you enjoyed, and hope to see you for future videos!

@@TheNerdIncarnate I’ll definitely be watching them!

I love Lobo, he's such a cool character. In the end it was him or Darkseid, and I felt I needed to go with the bigger name. But Lobo would be so sick as a playable fighter.

You can never dream too big

>Sees #1 MY MAN! 💪

Riley and huey would be such a good add to this game

gwimbly

@@JuanGomez-ke5py gwimbly assist trophy

@@prodbym1ssle I rather have the Doom parody be the assist trophy

@@JuanGomez-ke5py yea but at the same time i dont see gwimbly as a full on fighter

@@JuanGomez-ke5py as a boss maybe

Like yeah it was funny for all of thirty seconds but like... why is Shaggy a shoto with mild DBZ references? Just let Gumball do that since it would make more sense on him. Let Shaggy be himself, and pair him up. They're too iconic to be apart.

Hope you enjoyed!

It's an interesting idea, but I didn't really go for characters that were already from previous crossovers. I wanted this game to have it's own identity.

@@TheNerdIncarnate my man, yep.

Both are ideas I've played with. The former won't be for awhile since we're unsure of the current status past the first season of DLC, as that would inform some of my choices. The latter I will definitely be doing in the future.

I definitely have some ideas for those rosters. For the latter, I'm waiting to see the future of NASB2 first. See who gets added after the first pass of DLC characters,

​​@@TheNerdIncarnateI'll be glad when they actually announce the remaining DLC fighters. I could make a strong case for all of my choices except Sidetable. She'd probably be like a joke character with a projectile and singing gimmick. Forgot to say I'm glad you added KO and respect Scrappy Doo. He's my favorite Scooby Doo character. Aside from Alien Force Gwen and Lola, I have three other picks I'd add. Enid from OKKO as a mostly ninja assassin type, Sawyer from Cats Don't Dance as a dance bruiser and probably a Total Drama rep assuming there's no problems with rights issues; probably someone from TDI. Maybe Duncan, Courtney or Chris himself. I'd like Bridgette but she loves animals too much to punch Gizmo or Jake. Maybe have her as an assist where she rides in on a wave (she's a surfer). Maybe also Amethyst, Stevonnie or from Steven Universe. I could easily see any of them as good picks. Amethyst as an assassin type, Stevonnie as a Bruiser and Peridot as a Mage.

Glad to have you! Hope you enjoy my future content!

Yeah, I found that out afterward. I'd only ever seen it spelled before.

My research on who actually owns Droopy was inconclusive, hence why I didn't give him a pack. Courage, Pibby, and the brothers would all make great picks, it's just that I had so much other Cartoon Network already, Pibby's show never materialized, and the Misers are just so niche and so many people don't even know WB owns them. But I wanted to make sure they got at least a small bone thrown to them.

Someone suggested the same idea in the previous video's comments. I do think it would be a cool idea. Sad that it won't ever come to fruition (thanks Zaslav.)

@@TheNerdIncarnate Well tbf RWBY is in IP limbo right now with WB wanting to sell the rights but no one is going to want that show for the price they're asking. It's still possible for WB to change the agenda with RWBY and give it to another studio.

@@starpetalarts6668 Technically yes but I feel it's more likely they're just gonna lock it away in the vault - or worse, use it as a tax write-off so Zaslav can add another 10 mil to his paycheck.

Do I have an idea for a for a stage maybe a stage based on the The smiling friends friend

@@TheNerdIncarnate he's literally sitting on his IP I will give you the right to rwby if you lick the chicken nugget

JoJo's rights are still kinda all over the place regardless. From my understanding just getting them in Jump crossovers are hard enough, and I mean, if I operated under this logic, I think people would still be miffed that it's Jolyne and not Jotaro or Dio.

Wb have other anime they can do

AGREED 💯💯💯

Thank you! That means a lot. I'm sorry that the real deal can never live up to it's potential XD

Gray Matter and Diamondhead were used as part of OG Ben's moveset in Part 1

I wanted to include Yogi, but he didn't really feel like much of a fighter to me and I couldn't figure out a moveset I liked for him. As for Numbuh Five, I actually did consider her rather than Numbuh One for one of the RWBY replacements (along with Numbuh Four) but decided on Nigel simply due to him being the most recognizable.

I fully agree

I may end up doing a Disney one down the line.

Who I want to see if you do a Disney super smash Brothers Sofia and Elena I put them in for their popularity

I address it later in the video. It was already too late in production by the time that news came out.

Half-Ownership only quantifies if there isn't a third company to work with. He's still licensed out from Toho; which puts him in the same boat as someone like Barbie - WB helps produce some of the content but hold no legal ownership over the characters. LOTR gets in on a technicality (video game content is WB' domain), and LEGO Movie got in for their characters actually being owned by WB. Godzilla has neither of these benefits.

@TheNerdIncarnate feels like a strange line to draw considering the existing partner ship and recent history of collaborations, though. I understand these are the rules you've set for a characters entry but Godzillas circumstance certainly makes him more likley than your average "guest character".The pure prominace that character holds at the moment, along with what I just mentioned with the overflow of collaborations, really makes me bet he'll be in.

Jessica Cruz is already a skin for Green Lantern.

@@masedaace5473 It would be awkward because she’s noticeably shorter and skinnier than Hal or John. She could also be a support character.

Like I said in the video, I could do a roster double this size and people would still be left out. I can't please everybody. Diversity in origin and playstyle was the main contributing factor in who I chose.

I'm glad you enjoyed! I try. Hope to see you with future videos, and here's hoping they don't fumble the bag on relaunch.

Glad you enjoyed, it would be dope af

I wouldn't count on it but we can dream haha

I considered her for playable, but I elected to go with Emmet since he felt more natural as a fighter.

I didn't have too many ideas other than that they would support their ally with a buff of positivity (by making them smile, naturally) but there's enough wacky antics you could utilize from the show to work with. Maybe Charlie could get his magical gear from the Enchanted Forest episode, complete with Gollum Pim. That'd be funny.

As for his moveset I would imagine say a combination of Smash Bros Pikachu with a Mechainc similar to Marvel vs Capcom Pheniox Wright

I mean objectively speaking he's still a Nintendo/GameFreak/Creatures Inc. character so he would never get in purely based on the fact that the Pokemon IP is only allowed to exist in game form on Nintendo platforms and mobile, so if he did get in he'd have to be an exclusive character, which fighting games don't really do anymore.

How about Elmo

Also pretty sure that Middle Earth is still wholly owned by Tolkein's family company, they didn't sell the IP to Embracer just the media distribution rights that Middle Earth had. Middle Earth still has the book rights and ownership of the IP but they sold their film rights to Embracer Group with a similar deal they have with Warner Bros. for the video and film rights. As long as Lord of the Rings media is being filmed by New Line Cinema then Warner Bros. keeps the video and film rights but they will have to go through Embracer Group if the Middle Earth characters can be used in Rings of Power or Multiversus. The deal means that Embracer Group has to keep producing Lord of the Rings media to have a say in what Warner Bros. does with the IP, vice versa with Warner Bros. and Embracer Group. It's a very complicated business deal but that about sums it up, I'm guessing Middle Earth still gets royalties from anything that is done, but I'm guessing they did it this way so that Embracer Group and Warner Bros. are both earning them money.

Best thing about Johnny Bravo though is that after he meets and loses his true love through no fault of his own, he becomes pitiable. He's always trying to replace what he lost but didn't understand why he lost her because she wiped his memory to protect him. It becomes a deeper more meaningful show, when? After the most meaningful woman enters his life.

Unfortunately that still disqualifies them based on my criteria, as it would be reaching out to yet another party for approval; and a Japanese one at that. JoJo has notoriously complex rights; just getting them in Jump crossovers is reported to be difficult. I wouldn't bet on any JoJo character, even if third party characters do join in.

Not to our knowledge. Heck, I'm having a hard time finding the source nowadays, but I believe it was a tweet from Danny Antonucci.

Godzilla is owned by Toho

I can't personally say I have faith but here's hoping.

Thank you! I'm quite happy with what I came up with, I think it'd be a really cool mode to play through.

I did have a version of the roster that had a Scooby-Doo monster on it, as I think it's worth including, but it wasn't the Creeper. I was torn between Captain Cutler, the Black Knight, and Space Kook.

@@TheNerdIncarnate I guess I understand why the Creeper isn’t playable, he doesn’t really have any moveset potential.

He's an echo

No weirder than Piranha Plant being in Smash. I just didn't have room for it here.

It's definitely a possibility!

@@TheNerdIncarnate Yeeees please i beg you do this Roster, there are many possibilities we have Walt Disney Animation, Pixar, Marvel, Star Wars, Pirates Of Caribbean, Chronicles Of Narnia, Indiana Jones and Disney Channel/Afternoon/XD

I can't believe I have to ask, but I did so much here... who are you referring to?

@@TheNerdIncarnate I was the Tony Soprano guy.

@@TheEndKing Unironically it's a cool idea.

I gave Jamie a role, it just wasn't playable. In my admittedly limited knowledge of GoT, from my perspective it seems like Jon is the more beloved character and between the two of them I felt he had more interesting moveset potential.

@@TheNerdIncarnate That's fair, I like Jaime better personally though because Jaime is also a really interesting and complex character, he's just not a main character like Jon Snow. Which would make for a more niche character pick which most fighter games need in my experience. I would however reccomend you watch the show, it's really good.

I'm not personally super invested in dramas. nor do I have the time to sit down and watch many shows nowadays As for niche characters, I feel like I hit plenty of those here XD

In that case they take up 3 roster slots. Even with a hundred space was still limited and there were over fifty characters I passed on to settle with the lineup I had.

Glad you liked it! Here's hoping something like this ends up happening

Rick's moveset doesn't contain drugs. Walter White would have to to be true to the character lmao

Good pick. Especially since there's no real way to do Johnny justice here in the game as a fighter.

No since Toho has to approve everything they do with the character

No, although i’d say Godzilla being added is likely looking at the amount of collabs hes already been in. COD, Roblox events, Gigabash, and most recently brawl stars and Dave the Diver.

I'm not saying that Fred couldn't or shouldn't be playable, but part of the charm of Fred's traps is that they're so overly complicated, and I couldn't figure out a way to make that in a moveset, especially one as... simplistic as Multiversus' are. Plus, even as a massive Scooby fan... I think it'd be funny to have Fred be represented in other ways (such as an announcer pack) since, imo, he's kinda the most expendable member of the gang. I love Fred though so I wouldn't be upset if he got added.

@@TheNerdIncarnate yeah, i could see coming up with traps that are faithful but not overly complicated being an issue what with the Rube Goldberg style traps often used. however there's usually a handful of mechanics or specific traps that get used semi-frequently, a trip rope, a drop cage, a trampoline that bounces monsters into the next part of the trap, even things like bags of flour or a bucket of water. i'd say Fred's potential moveset strength would absolutely be taking a bunch of the more simple parts of his grander traps, making them the moves available to him, and then allowing the player to set up mini Rube Goldberg style traps with the tools available. maybe something like the enemy getting bounced off of a trampoline (also would be Fred's recovery option) directly into a hanging bag of flour for a debuff, Fred hits with a few basic attacks and tries to force the opponent onto a grease puddle that slides them into a trip-wire set up on the stage edge that spikes downward if the enemy touches it at an adequate speed. also, while i'm here and spewing nonsense about fake Scooby Doo platform movesets. i'd actually make Scooby his own playable character, make him a tank to round out the Scooby Gang's class representation, then give Scooby specials that have him avoiding/negating damage through acts of cowardice, like a Black Knight disguise that functions like Kirby's stone transformation, a dash attack where he's hiding in a barrel like he does in the opening/the Charlie the Robot episode, having cameo monsters pop up and scare him into a cowering animation but acting as walls while they stand on either side of him protecting himself/teammates from damage, and of course the wind-up run complete with the sound effect. because having him as part of Shaggy's move set kind of robs Scooby of his potential in a game like this. Shaggy's kit itself is, a little basic and based on a dead meme, so it could use some re-tooling but wasting Scooby's potential by folding him into it isn't the way to fix that problem, i think. yes, having 5 characters of representation is a lot, even in a roster of, like, 100 characters.. but it serves 2 purposes, the first being that the Scooby Gang is consistently one of WB's most iconic an profitable franchises and so more rep is probably fine as long as the releases are spread out amongst DLC seasons so as to not frontload it, and the second being that with one member each representing a character class (assuming my hypothetical moveset ideas for Fred and Scooby and yours for Daphne) they'd make for a great introductory/baseline character for each of the classes, well, for the most part Fred would probably be a bit complicated with the trap setting as the main focus compared to someone like Bugs but eh. sorry for the wall of text!

@@spazzmasterkoad I mean if I were to utilize Scooby on his own I wouldn't make him a tank. I didn't force RWBY's cast into all being different, so I would shoot to go with whatever would fit him best, which imo would likely be support.

Can we not use the slur when bringing up the character please

U can easily make one for 5 genius and then give penny her own slot cuz she would brawler

I hate the Big Bang Theory lol

@@TheNerdIncarnate shouldn't be biased lol they are a stable of Warner Bros entertainment

Hope to see you around for future ones. I plan on making a lot of roster building content in the future.

You didn't watch part 1 did you lol

I deliberately avoided Robin, as Batman already took up a huge presence on this roster and DC is such a huge universe, so he was extremely low priority to be picked. On a 200 character lineup? Sure, I have room there, but 100 turns out to be quite limiting when the pool of IP you own is so massive.

Movie characters are surprisingly difficult to find out legal rights for haha, and sometimes equally tricky to design a moveset for. Audrey got a different role, but generally I tried to stick to what I know and I haven't seen many Kubrick films.

@@TheNerdIncarnate oh ok, that's understandable.
