Nintendo France bans Hero and future DLC characters from official Smash Bros. Ultimate tournaments
Posted on 5 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Switch | 0 comments
Ever since Hero made his debut in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate, his inclusion in tournaments has been a strong point of contention. Some feel that his moveset is too random, leaving victories and defeats more in the hands of luck rather than skill.

Interestingly, this also applies to every DLC character released after September 23, so the decision appears to affect future events as well.
