"This list is in no way official"

Exactly. Don't get what there is to be upset about it. It's clearly from a very skewed section of the fanbase making it to push their choices and try and shutdown others.

I will never stop voting for Shantae.
Because even WayForward gave their blessing.
and because Shantae is one of my favorite female protags ever.

And to me her name means nothing. *shrug* Same reason I won't vote for Issac, although at least I've heard of Golden Sun before. Legitimately have not heard of her before. Just doesn't feel right to go and throw in support for something I don't know anything about.

But that's totally fine! It's supposed to be about voting for who you want.

I understand why people want King K Rool in the game, but isn't he a heavy character? How many heavy villain types are in the game anyways?

You've seriously never heard of Shantae?

Nope. So what? Does that bother you? It shouldn't.

Unless it's Ridley.
Because wanting Ridley is wrong and apparently anyone who wants him is fucking dipshit who wasted their time voting.
Amirite guis?

Well Ridley was the first one I voted for, so...

I guess we can be idiots together.
