The final image on the site isn't in layers, it's a bunch of images side by side....Wait, why is there discussion about cropping again?
Each character portrait is on it's own layer. That's part of why people were arguing the Grinch leak is legit in the first place. Why would spots on characters need to be shoddily cropped off as though every character was on the same front layer and one needed to be scrubbed off?
The Grinch leak support wagon is getting so over the top excited that it's pretzeling in on itself even when it's unnecessary and actively contradictory.
But not everyone is saying it is? More people are acting like the former than the latter. His post comes across like we've lost our mind for believing in anything that points to Isaac and this whole thread thinks he's 100% in. Which isn't true at all.there is a difference between "it could be related to isaac" to "OMG ITS TOTALLY ISAAC IT CANT BE A COINCIDENCE" at least in regards to the sprout item
Alright I agree in regards to the earthquake but that's not the only point being discussed about Isaac. We can ignore that and still discuss the other things that support the character without being condescending.But what is there to discuss with this. We have seen how that this is just a site glitch and nothing else so like of course this will shut down discussion and now people are trying to turn this around to the last direct which is disrespectful as fuck. If your only concern with that post is that it comes off as rude than I think that post is perfect since there is nothing to discuss here about that.
lmao 2018 tagline
That was confirmed to be part of Olimar's glove
Recreated by adding two of the image files together. it probably just loaded weird. it also makes no sense for Isaac to be removed based on Slot Theory

That's a true story.On a side note, was there any truth to MGS2's ending being altered pre-release due to Sept. 11, or is that urban legend?
Best scenario is the leak being real. TONS of exciting new movesets, possibilities for stages and music added, and Resetera without a thousand of lewd incineroar avatars.
You mean the banner? No thanks. Literally anything is better than talking about the box theory and kencineroar again. Even Goku.At this rate I hope we find out it's fake tomorrow just so we stop being at each other's throats.
Reposting (& rewording) this since I think some people missed it:
---------------------------------------
The big wide banner on the Smash site is split among multiple images, sliding repeatedly across like an image galery. I found the individual images, and images 02 and 03 do 'split' in-between Olimar & Little Mac. However, by searching for the images in the wayback machine, I just get a singular significant change corresponding to Sep. 13th, that is, the Isabelle reveal. If someone wants to further explore Wayback Machine, be my guest.
From what I can gather, the person in that leak loaded the site in a manner that the old image for Banner02 was loaded, and the newest image at the time for Banner03 was loaded, leading to the weird crop. The differences in the seam line up with the 4chan post when you connect those two images.
The 'old' images are there since like, September 10th as well, at least according to wayback, so it wasn't an immediate or reactive change.

This is what you get when you match up the first image for banner 02 with the second image for banner 03
Which seems to line up pretty well with the 4chan post.
It's a *massive* coincidence (and not in the sense that it 'proves' anything), particularly since I don't know how you could be extremely unlucky to load one old image and then one new one and then have it line up one month later with the Isaac thing that was apparently speculated (still ??? at that) to be in the same direct, but it's looking like nothing more than a coincidence.
Arguing about whether we're getting fucking Mach Rider and Banjo is 100000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000 times more interesting than debating the qualities of fucking Ken and Incineroar. Like most of these past leaks are the safest shit, my grandmother could've predicted Ken was in the game.

Chair theory is tried and true; it's the oldest theory yet to be debunked.
People were talking about Incineroar being in Smash since like the day he got announcedYeah, the Inceneroar people confuse me. Mach Rider is wayyyy more interesting. I love it when more throwback characters make it in.
Well the leak itself is likely real, it's just this newest revelation is a coincidence.There, good shit. Amazing coincidence but that's all this is.
So just kill this thing already.

The final image on the site isn't in layers, it's a bunch of images side by side.
The comparison doesn't even make any sense. In the first seam people brought up, the seam was right next to the edge of Isaac. In this one, it completely overlaps Geno.
There's no consistent correlation here.
Thing is, practically everything is. Save for some slight background misalignments, the only reason people have to doubt this leak are insider's word. It's honestly crazy a leak this big still hasn't been disproven.

One of Isaac's signature moves is Earthquake, apparently. One of the Nintendo Directs (the one that revealed Isabelle, IIRC) was delayed due to an earthquake in Japan. Some speculate Isaac was meant to be shown off in that direct, but his trailer had earthquake imagery that would have been in bad taste given what had just happened, so they put off revealing him.

So, is the leak inclined to be faker or more legit now? im kinda loss
No changeSo, is the leak inclined to be faker or more legit now? im kinda loss
Jesus this community is heading down the toilet fast.
FACT: The seam isn't there because a character was removed, it simply how the website works. The banner is split into sections and that's where two sections meet. It was either a case of one section not being uploaded correctly with the rest or someone's cache causing the site to not load properly.
FACT: The direct wasn't delayed because of Isaac. It was tasteless to suggest that back then and it's tasteless to suggest that now.
FACT: Two leaf sprouts are common as muck in games (now if it was three leafed I'd be impressed). Heck there's already another item using the two leaf sprout imagery, that's how common it is. Nothing suggests it's to do with Golden Sun. It could be related to a magnitude of properties.
FACT: Loads of Nintendo properties had their trademarks renewed this year. Where's the support for Ashley from Another Code huh? That was one of the other games renewed.
