Ike (Super Smash Bros. Brawl)

Ike (, Aiku) is a character appearing in the upcoming Super Smash Bros. Brawl. Revealed on Smash Bros. Dojo!! on August 1st, 2007, Ike is a newcomer to the franchise. He is the protagonist of Fire Emblem: Path of Radiance, and also appears in Fire Emblem: Radiant Dawn. His sword from Fire Emblem: Path of Radiance, Ragnell, is a two-handed sword but he is known to wield it with one hand, showing his incredible strength.

The Dojo also implies that he will be a heavier character than Marth or Roy, and he appears to possess a powerful charging special move as well.

A Gamepro Video has confirmed both of Ike's remaining special moves.

Ike's Final Smash, known as Great Aether, seems to be a combination of Link's Triforce Slash and Ike's own Aether move, with an added fire effect and an explosion upon impact with the ground. Ike's regular Special move, Aether, consists of him throwing his sword in the air, catching it, and then slicing down. While slicing down, he is not invincible, but if attacked he will not flinch. While not as powerful as "Great Aether", it still can do a lot of damage if timed right.
