I said I would do it, and I'm doing it! After the RP season has ended I am only now going to provide a list of characters I would be interested in seeing in the Big Bar Brawl 12. Like always keep in mind these are more specific pokes for characters I'm interested in seeing rather than a comprehensive list, I will be leaving out characters who have only appeared in teasers or other similar appearances where we don't really know the character yet. Also, might trim characters I've accepted I won't get or whose relevance has waned too much from the previous list (although I'm editing this now as I accept my ability to use that ax is not as strong as I thought :V). Anyway, here we go!

Animal Control was actually going to be a 2021 entry fighting in the Verminator before I realized I had a lot more candidates for Brawling then space. Kogasa and Claire, now that they're a duo, might end up entering together unless they don't click in the early season next year. It would be nice to get LEGO Indiana in the Brawl now too after a stupendous year for the guy, going from my least confident pick to the one I was happiest with at the end! Like, I expected others to find their footing or develop but he really surprised me. Maybe if we do go with that spooky setting though we might see some guys come off this list...
I considered a brief description of the other inclusions/absences on the list here, but it didn't seem too interesting on reflection. Like, I understand if Del doesn't want to enter my picks there because they're all kind of less violent types, some people like Gooper and Harpy have such big casts it's more about picking from a wide selection, and some people like Bree and Sheep are usually rolling new characters right into the Brawl. I almost included Nobunaut in Ivel's section but he also doesn't have many non-Brawling types and Nobunaut was more me being silly. Still, hope this is interesting!
This list is definitely worth the effort for you to keep updating every year! Thanks for posting it. Now that it's separate from the Brawl blog, it's easier to link and reference. It's a very handy tool for people with more slots than they know what to do with, especially.
ReplyDeleteOf course, I've always been in the opposite boat - I have a backlog of characters that never seems to empty even with the occasional legacy Brawl appearance, because I just keep coming up with more characters! One de-confirmation I can make right now is that, while I initially did plan for him to Brawl during the Agama years, I strongly doubt Kumonga will get in. He turned in such a strong performance in the Kaiju Clash that I feel like it isn't necessary to see him in another fite with space so limited. If I had more spaces I could probably do some kind of twist like having him enter alongside Cordie to give her one more crack at FYM, but five slots just isn't enough for me to get everyone I have a cool idea for into the Brawl!
However! My BBB12 roster isn't locked in - who knows what could happen between now and June - but if it doesn't change too much between now and next summer, I think you'll be quite happy with some of my selections...
