MAYBE play some fighting games to understand why the idea is great and not snooze opposed to grass dk with a terrain gimmick or 70% of what Incineroar or Fox can do with the soccer ball item.

and for the record, this is definitely something Sakurai would want to do since he's a giant Virtua Fighter fan and keep recommending VF2 to people a lot. (I prefer VF4).
