Pretty self-explanatory!

• Klippa. My single favorite Lapfox album is Arcadepunk, and So is also way up there. While Klippa doesn't show up that often or that largely anymore, he remains one of my top Aliases, especially in terms of full album listens.

• Rotteen. I didn't hear much of Ancient Artifact, admittedly, though as often as I play Tweesee and Absolute Artifact, perhaps I should reconsider!

• Emoticon/Furries in a Blender. From Mungyodance onward, I've held a soft spot for the hardcore sounds of the rainbow cat. Even his older stuff still holds up today, even if it's a product of the times/games they came from.

• The Queenstons. Whether together or separate, the two Queenstons, Renard and Jackal, have been consistent mainstays in every playlist I create. Prismatic has been their most recent big hit with me thus far (I unfortunately haven't heard LGG yet). I would count dethrone as well, but that's more a remix album by mostly other Aliases.

• Sigma. I've always been a huge fan of "boss songs" from rhythm games. While there really isn't a place for Sigma outside of Mungyodance due to the extremely specific genre he produced, I still turn on his beautifully cacophonous songs from time to time, the most recent big replayed track being "Anarchy," which I even made a remix of recently. No one remembers Sigma anymore, tragically.

• Truxton. A plunderphonics making hellhound with a need to party all night. Freaking. Awesome.

• Kettu. Known in the Mungyodance era for making funky, sample-y music, similar to (but not really like) Hideki Naganuma. Later in the series, he seemingly drew inspiration from BanYa+Yahpp, from the Pump It Up series. Regardless of the music, there was always an undercurrent of grooviness that is sadly missing from the Lapfox era.

• Mayhem. For a long time, she was my favorite above all others. She still produces some choice cuts, but with a sweet 90s feel. I don't resonate with it as much as her older sound, but it's a new direction that still works very nicely.

I'd list more, but then I'd simply be listing most of the rest! Even though I listed quite a few, it's worth mentioning to me that most of these still only stand out a bit more than others, the exception being Klippa. What about you guys?

With the knowledge of Lucas, Roy and Ryu most likely being in development for Smash 4 DLC and the ballot for who players want to see next still active, who would you/did you put in a good word for?

I personally went with Krystal, from the Star Fox franchise. Due to her background, she would have the most potential to be a unique representative when the time is most right (see Star Fox U). Not only could she have more familiar space animal moves, but another entire potential moveset based around the use of her staff and psychic abilities. (It doesn't hurt that she is also first-party.)

My second choice would likely be Simon Belmont, from Castlevania. The original Castlevania trilogy is one of the cornerstones of the NES' library, more so than even Metal Gear. In those games, Simon had access to a virtual armory of weapons that could translate very well into a Smash moveset.
