The Smash Bros. community is unlike any other.

The series hosts the largest crossover game ever to be conceived, with a roster full of characters hand-picked from numerous beloved franchises.

Naturally, this has pulled fans from each of these franchises in, leaving the Smash Bros. community filled with a diverse fan-base of players drawn from a copiously large array of titles. From Mario to Metal Gear, and Fire Emblem to Pac-Man, Smash Bros. draws in so many different characters, and consequently, their fans, some of which have a knack for creating false rumors and leaks to stir some chaos.

With every new Smash game comes a wave of outlandish (yet somehow plausible) leaks, theories and general predictions on which new characters will be introduced into the Smash roster of fighters.

And boy have there been some predictions.

So join me, as we dive head-first into the deep depths of the Smash Bros. community as we observe some of the most bizarre yet brilliant smash “leaks” both past and present.

Welcome, to the crazy world of Fake Smash Bros. Leaks.
