Honestly I disagree with your statement. Clone characters take just as much work to make as non-clones. Sure, the Smash team doesn't have to think of new moves for a clone, but they still have to make all of the animations for a clone, the same number as a non-clone. Its not like its a cooy-and-paste process wit a little touch up to make the character a little different. While I, like most, am not a fan of and hardly play as clone characters, I think we shouldn't sell the Smash team short or take them for granted when it comes to clones, as I am sure they take just as much work as the rest of the Smash cast.
