Hello from 2020 to the people coming from Aaronitmar's video!! Just in case you're interested, we'd love having you around our Discord server. I've updated the description with a link. =)
It's honestly disappointing that no one has even come close to this level of detail for a smash ultimate leak yet. This is probably the greatest fake leak of all time.
I said it before in our interview, but congrats man, you fooled us. Truly impressive work. You seriously raised the bar for any future "leakers" (whether real or fake!)
Remember when everyone believed Gematsu based on some lucky guesses? Because of Omni people will actually have to leak gameplay for it to be seen as undoubtably real now. He's a hero.
John John Gematsu was correct, they just had outdated info from very early in development. This is prevalent in the fact that Bowser Jr. barely made the cut & the fact that a Rhythm Heaven character was planned (proven via data miners).
You had me fooled, your editing was immaculate and you really used the "smash" style when you redrew Mewtwo and Rayman. I'm happy to fall for such a well edited hoax.
C'mon man, you don't make fake DLC for one of the most hyped Nintendo games in the last 21 months, then proceed to have people on 4chan leak it with "off-screen shots" to really seal the deal down to EVERY SINGLE DETAIL. People will rightfully get mad at you.
Minuteworld Regardless, he made tons of nerds angry. I'm just laughing at all those coverage sites/channels at this point. I expect more butthurt to flow through TH-cam today or for the whole week. You guys acting livid over a damn character, Rayman, like it was some pinnacle miracle to come but shat on your face. That's hilarious.
So now that things are starting to settle down a bit, I wanted to just take the time to say that I'm completely overwhelmed by the fact that so many people have given a positive response to this whole thing. It's been a real encouragement to me that despite my effort to try to deceive people, people out there still support me and my work! And though there has been a good deal of negative response as well, I probably deserve the hate that's coming my way, and that's something that I'll just have to deal with. Contrary to some popular opinions, I do have day jobs where I strive to use my abilities for more productive things. =P And as such, my schedule is typically pretty busy. So while I can't promise that future Smash art will come as fast as I'd like it to, I WILL make it happen. I've been insensitive to a lot of people's feelings about a game and community that we're all passionate about, and the least I can do to make up for it is commit myself to a project that gives back to the community. So again, my sincerest apologies for toying with people, and I hope I can make it up to you all. I'm grateful to those who are willing to forgive me.
It was an amazing trick. Your skills are downright awesome my good sir! Don't fall to the haters because you have plenty of fans who loved this prank!!
PK!!! Hey yeah this leak was so awesome and well this kinda got me thinking it was real but I also needed gameplay or at least changed his colors at least.
Ignore the haters. You did a great job with this. People saying you wasted your time doesn't understand what a hobby is. This is a fantastic display of your abilities while also being playful fun. It's not like you harmed anyone or violated any laws by doing this.
***** Exactly the type of hater I was referring to. I'm not gonna deal with you. Yeah it sucks for people who really wanted it to be real, but remember this. Leaks are never 100% real until the developers themselves officially releases it. NEVER get your hopes up on a leak.
***** It's not an uncommon move, you know. Plenty of people do it, I'm sure. Either way, it was a huge success and a lot of people enjoyed it. And as another plus, he has plenty of subs now, as well as plenty of recommendations for characters to make next. Not like these are gonna be thought of as leaks anymore anyways.
Absolutely incredible work and probably one of the most convincing fakes I've ever seen anybody make! I would say "good job, man", but I kinda hate how you raised my hopes up so high since I really loved the idea of Rayman in Smash! Moral of the story: always assume these things are fake until proven otherwise!
This totally inspires me to not only get better with Photoshop but also to learn AfterEffects and expand my skillset. Great work on this, love the attention to detail :)
This leak was so good the only downside being that we will most likely never get a leak as good as this again now that this shows how far a leaker has gone. but that doesn't bother me, i still enjoy watching this after all these years, it's such a cool and interesting process, props to you Omni, you are extremely talented and i hope you go far in life.
What if he was a Nintendo employee and the whole leak was real and was just faking the fake leak to end up having it real in the end, but fooling us by making this video?
You're ok with it because Sonic really was added :/. Just kidding lol, totally agree, this is really cool stuff and will definitely make people second guess leaks instead of jumping all over them, which is a good thing.
I wish there was an Ice Climbers fake leak but for it then turn out to be a case of nintendo was actually working on it completely by coincidence. Did you know I was one of those people who REALLY wanted Ridley for smash, then to stop caring the second the Ice Climbers were cut?
This was amazing, hat's off to you. As an After Effects user, I know it's potential and that it is a powerful tool paired with Photoshop, but I never imagined you could go this far with it. Very, very clever stuff.
I almost want to be mad but you have WAY too much talent to be angry with. You're ridiculously good. o__o Definitely the most believable Smash fake I've ever seen!
This is beyond amazing, and in my honest opinion, completely makes up for the fact the leak was fabricated. On that note, *1:* You should be hired in Nintendo (this is me speaking without knowing your background or current occupation, but really, you highhandedly managed to produce content that managed to convince everybody, you know what you're doing sir!) And *2:* I can't wait to see what future projects you have in store if any; your process was just a spectacle to see, and it was almost shocking to believe that the results were even possible. Though, for *3:* It'd be nice if Nintendo followed up by introducing Rayman as a character. Oh well, I guess I can keep watching the leak on repeat...
Haha, dude, if Nintendo and Ubisoft actually included Rayman in the game because of this fiasco, I would not know what to do with myself. I'd be happy enough to learn that they were planning it the whole time, but to actually be a catalyst for that kind of thing? Good gravy. o_o
It would've been hilarious if you did it with the least expected character, like all of the sudden shrek joins the fight, it looks pretty legit, I bet tons of people would've fallen for it
***** Dude, you're underestimating the internet, there are a lot of dumb people out there, and doing ridley is just rude, I was one of those who believed it could happen, and really wanted to see it
BalaTheHero9 Why does everyone say Rayman doesn't deserve to be in SSB. I haven't even played a single Rayman game and he still looks like he would be a fun and unique character to use. I haven't played a Rayman game, yet I know who he is as video game character. He feels very relevant being a Smash Bros Character.
Man, this was brilliantly made...not only did you prove many people wrong about the leak, but you also made a ton of Salty people angry. Keep it up man. You did an excellent job.
Ok, so people are mad, rustled and butthurt over this, but you know what? I take my hat off, this leak was incredibly well done and extremely convincing, you proved the Internet that we can't even trust video leaks anymore and that we should now become a lot more skeptical than what we already are. You have done a truly amazing job, congratulations
Honestly, whether people see it as annoying them or not, you're right. Artsy Omni pretty much confirmed that nobody should take a leak as real unless confirmed. However, too many people continue to do so anyway, and end up getting hurt when the leak turns out fake.
Those of you resorting to death threats or hoping he "burns in hell," should be ashamed of yourselves. You aren't, but you should be. It's a hell of a gamble, I'll give him that. That much effort led to some extremely convincing content that shows off the quality of his work and got him mainstream headlines. I make extremely time-intensive content about games, I mostly try to be fair about everything and make entertaining and insightful videos, and I've yet to get a peep of attention for it from any larger sites. Controversy really can create a buzz. That said, no matter how far he goes from here, he'll ALWAYS be known as the guy who did this, and there will always be a hatedom calling for his head. It's a hell of a double-edged sword, too. I'm interested to see the results.
I still comeback to this vid only to remember to do not trust any leaks without proof. Also leakers are scum and they often ruin the fun (-> Ryu and Roy)
+Gebirges I hate it when people leak parts of the game, like you said, Ryu and Roy (Right before Nintendo announced themselves it no less), but watching the skill and attention to detail that this guy went through is impressive.
The people who are getting upset at this are unbelievable. First of all, you fell for what was an incredibly unlikely character announcement out of left field. Then, you allowed yourself to get incredibly hyped up for it. Finally, you aren't even appreciating the time and sheer talent that this guy put into making the fake. Shame on all of you.
BlackWidowSoldier099 Malicious- intending or intended to do harm. This didn't harm anybody, nobody suffered harm from this. It was a prank, and a very elaborate one at that.
Dude...You got me good. After the Shulk and Bowser Jr. leak, I was for sure this leak would be real. But man, I got a good laugh after hearing it was fake. Your skills are amazing though. But fair warning, thousand of people are pissed now because you fake leaked a character on the biggest game for the Wii U I dunno what Ubisoft will do to you, but still...I had a good laugh. XD
Hopefully they'll say, "oh wow, everyone actually was hype for rayman. Maybe we could make a deal with Nintendo or something and make this a real thing."
They probably cant do a video like this due to the leaker potentially getting in trouble and facing serious consequences. Keep in mind the person who posted that leak works (or worked) for a french printing company.
Artsy Omni It would be moderately amusing if they discovered your leak, and liked the idea of Rayman in Smash so much, that they approached Nintendo about it.
I don't know if anyone suggested this yet, but it would be cool to see how Goku would look like in Smash. I know it will never happen though but it would be interesting to see nonetheless.
Hey Omni. You did really well on this and had me fooled. It was pretty crazy, and I hope to see more episodes of Smashified when you can. I have a suggestion. I want to see everyone's favorite ogre, Shrek, in an episode of Smashified. The logo is really simple. It's the S with the ogre ears on the titles of the Shrek movies. I can't wait until the project is "ogre". The hype train is rolling. -ripjaw105
Let me be honest, that, without a doubt, is one of the greatest smash leaks that I have seen in my entire life, as a somewhat Rayman fan, I felt convinced that he was coming to smash bros, but why would they announce another DLC in February? I'm a little pissed of, but somewhat impressed at the same time. Well played...
I was sad when I first found out this was fake but I think you did a very impressive job of making it look legitimate. I actually like smashified select screens like this. I hope you do more like this so I can learn more about After Effects myself.
Dreamchase Jay That or the leak was so realistic that even the Ubisoft reps weren't sure what was going on because it could be a project from a department under a non-disclosure agreement or nintendo breaking copyright law, so they needed to call the office to check cause even they weren't sure. In other words, Artsy even trolled Ubisoft.
I'm really impressed with this! You made a lot of people uncomfortable because it seemed so real, and if that's not a testament to your artistic skills I don't know what is. I think I might subscribe and check your channel out, and follow you on deviantART too. (Was this your plan all along?) I haven't seen your other videos yet, but have you done Shantae Smashified? What about Sami from Advance Wars? Or Wolf, perhaps.
Since Smash Wii U modding is becoming more and more advanced Rayman in smash could be possible it'll just take some time for modders to do such a thing at this point in time
What I've learned to achieve 20k subs: 1. Know how to use After Effects/Photoshop 2. Use a a fairly hyped character that has a fair chance at DLC 3. Use your Photoshop/After Effects skills. 4. Post it on 4chan. 5. Say the leak is fake, get hate, but still get publicity. Thanks Omi! ^^
This is amazing! Wow I'm a second year Graphic Design major right now, and I hope that by the end of college i'll have this kind of skill. This is inspirational, the level of detail is crazy.
Man, I've just subscribed to your channel. You got skills, impressive skills. You made a fool of everybody, me included. I actually thought this was freaking real. But you know what? As they say "I ain't even mad". I actually chuckled while watching the start of this video. Kudos. Your Klonoa model is also well-done. If you really want suggestions about what character to "smash-ify" next, could I suggest Simon Belmont from Castlevania? He was a big name during the NES and SNES times. Just...use his game design, even the effeminate animu one would be okay. Don't use the Captain N one, please.
why are people getting so mad about this? it's just a fake game DLC, and he clearly demonstrated serious video editing talent. you guys need to calm down
The word "rayman" underneath the character art you made is darker than the other characters, this was the only difference i was able to see; good job mayn
This was absolutely fantastic. I mean I personally didn't believe that the leak was real the moment I saw the reasoning behind the initial leak video's removal, but it really did looking pretty convincing! Good job trolling the Smash's fanbase buddy boy! Anyways, as for someone I'd like to see Smashified next, how about Mappy?
Dude, this isn't even your first offense. I remember last year when you posted to 4chan a "corrupt zip" containing fucking Klonoa in Smash, along with a broken Palutena image, because you probably knew Palutena was coming. Man, fool me once, shame on you, fool me TWICE, shame on ME. Well fucking done, Omni. You have my fear, you have my praise, you have my shame, but most importantly, you have my respect.
Hello from 2020 to the people coming from Aaronitmar's video!! Just in case you're interested, we'd love having you around our Discord server. I've updated the description with a link. =)
Will there be a tutorial channel on how to make a smash fake leak?
RAYMAN is coming to smash
@@brokenbatterii8848 Why is he leak in Smash?
@@brokenbatterii8848 Who the hell would do that? That’s just fucked up.
@@high_boy5843 Hopefully so. I’m expecting Rayman, Doom Slayer, and Ryu.
It's honestly disappointing that no one has even come close to this level of detail for a smash ultimate leak yet. This is probably the greatest fake leak of all time.
Well. Look where we are now...
@@Piboom4 haha i know right? grinch leak is nuts.
THEBiTT but fake
I mean, that Geno in Ultimate fake leak was pretty impressive too (despite being just a Brawl mod)
I said it before in our interview, but congrats man, you fooled us. Truly impressive work. You seriously raised the bar for any future "leakers" (whether real or fake!)
***** Hi Derrick.
Hello *****
Remember when everyone believed Gematsu based on some lucky guesses? Because of Omni people will actually have to leak gameplay for it to be seen as undoubtably real now. He's a hero.
Tell him to make Banjo-Kazooie. Or don't.
John John Gematsu was correct, they just had outdated info from very early in development. This is prevalent in the fact that Bowser Jr. barely made the cut & the fact that a Rhythm Heaven character was planned (proven via data miners).
Dude, I don't even care if this is fake - your editing skills are top notch!!!
xplodax thanks! you're very kind =)
Artsy Omni GG Man You did good :D
this was a shit ton of work just to fuck with people
Maxamuis That wasn't the goal. =P
=P
Maxamuis I think the goal was to get Etika to see it.
Vinson Games Who?
Maxamuis You know, EtikaWorldNetwork. Look up Mewtwo's reaction.
Why are people mad at this. This is amazing. Kudos to you, sir.
Some people just get mad at everything, smh
people are mad because they were hardcore trolled.. And if you know the internet, EVERYONE loves getting trolled hard :DD
They're mad because they're gullible, and need someone to target because they're the ones who looked like a fool thanks to an amazing hoax.
yay Jellocopalypse i love your WELCOME TO (series.)
Because WAAH WAAH I WANT RAYMUN
You had me fooled, your editing was immaculate and you really used the "smash" style when you redrew Mewtwo and Rayman. I'm happy to fall for such a well edited hoax.
KEYORI!!!!!! :D
Do you play Smash keyori?
I didn't know you were a fan of Smash Bros.
...
I demand "Domestic Smash Bros. Violence" ft. Jaynee.
***** Someone seems like a butthurt little shit
***** lol everyone just ignored that
Wow...that was impressive. Nobody's ever gonna believe a leak ever again haha
IKR...
You still can't forgot that summer though. XD
Agreed
I have no words.
Nathaniel Bandy oh hi Nathaniel Bandy
Now that I'm thinking about it... How would they make a Rayman Amiibo?
Yeah. All those floating limbs and everything.
SidTheEpic Thin metal lines of course!
SidTheEpic probably clear plastic like Rosalina & Luma
Or do what other people did who made successful statues without using metal poles / plastic.
+SidTheEpic Probably with something transparent to simulate the limbs being apart from the body.
I'm scared....
C'mon man, you don't make fake DLC for one of the most hyped Nintendo games in the last 21 months, then proceed to have people on 4chan leak it with "off-screen shots" to really seal the deal down to EVERY SINGLE DETAIL. People will rightfully get mad at you.
Try doing a Smashified version of Issac.
What did you expect? That everyone would just laugh it off? Fucking idiot.
You should be....do you know how many people would like to play as rayman in Sm4sh? I would honestly consider buying my first DLC
YOU BETTER BE. REDDIT WIILL COME AND DESTROY YOU SON
Impressive work, not only did you show your talent, you managed to make a ton of nerds angry.
You're doin' good things. Keep it up.
If Kanji is okay with this then we all should
pretty sure he's a bigger nerd than us. seeing that he put ungodly amounts of effort into something just to piss people off.
Minuteworld Regardless, he made tons of nerds angry. I'm just laughing at all those coverage sites/channels at this point. I expect more butthurt to flow through TH-cam today or for the whole week. You guys acting livid over a damn character, Rayman, like it was some pinnacle miracle to come but shat on your face. That's hilarious.
Downvoted cuz you used the word nerd.
Seriously, you had a great streak going. :\
I don't see the big deal with being called a nerd. The fact that we're here proves it XD
So now that things are starting to settle down a bit, I wanted to just take the time to say that I'm completely overwhelmed by the fact that so many people have given a positive response to this whole thing. It's been a real encouragement to me that despite my effort to try to deceive people, people out there still support me and my work!
And though there has been a good deal of negative response as well, I probably deserve the hate that's coming my way, and that's something that I'll just have to deal with.
Contrary to some popular opinions, I do have day jobs where I strive to use my abilities for more productive things. =P And as such, my schedule is typically pretty busy.

I've been insensitive to a lot of people's feelings about a game and community that we're all passionate about, and the least I can do to make up for it is commit myself to a project that gives back to the community.
So again, my sincerest apologies for toying with people, and I hope I can make it up to you all. I'm grateful to those who are willing to forgive me.
It was an amazing trick. Your skills are downright awesome my good sir! Don't fall to the haters because you have plenty of fans who loved this prank!!
No worries man, don't worry too much about the negative feedback. This gave me a good laugh this morning. Looking forward to your next videos :D
So, that was all done in photoshop? Didn't know it had those capabilities.
If you have the time. Please make ridley next. Also you can use the announcer's voice from the 50 extravaganza video.
HEY link to the music. It's a remix of Trophy but which one.
Also good work!
I can't believe the guy behind the Rayman leak is the same guy making Rollin Rascals
That's amazing
You're a freaking awesome graphic designer, and don't ever forget that. Well played!
Best thing I have seen in awhile.
Even Balrog the FUCKING master fell for it?! I should have known.
The man that fooled the entire internet
+QuakeMkr Yeah. He reminded me of the legendary Raman leaks
+QuakeMkr and you're the guy who can't spell you're
WildBassfly Who gives a shit Brun.
OhhLemon Juice employers and people who don't know what the word brun is
Did you reply to your own comment?
LOL This is awesome. You did your thing on this one. More "leaks", please.
***** Hey what's up PK!
PK!!! Hey yeah this leak was so awesome and well this kinda got me thinking it was real but I also needed gameplay or at least changed his colors at least.
***** hello Pksparkxx and I brather use Tails I can't believe my 3 favorite including ***** Nathaniel Bandy and you are going against me im sad now
you need to smashify the reckless Wii remote guy.
XD
what about non specific action figure
+Connor Cain up b hitting the ceiling fan
Pyles Plays Cool, I’ll be in Smash!
Ignore the haters. You did a great job with this. People saying you wasted your time doesn't understand what a hobby is. This is a fantastic display of your abilities while also being playful fun. It's not like you harmed anyone or violated any laws by doing this.
***** Exactly the type of hater I was referring to. I'm not gonna deal with you. Yeah it sucks for people who really wanted it to be real, but remember this. Leaks are never 100% real until the developers themselves officially releases it. NEVER get your hopes up on a leak.
***** What's wrong with defending him? This is really no different than the Karissa Smash thing; a sort of publicity move that excites people.
***** It's not an uncommon move, you know. Plenty of people do it, I'm sure. Either way, it was a huge success and a lot of people enjoyed it. And as another plus, he has plenty of subs now, as well as plenty of recommendations for characters to make next. Not like these are gonna be thought of as leaks anymore anyways.
RaptorHater101 You don't care about smash, I don't care about your bitching.
Ooooh! Yami is kicking virtual haters ass!
WELP. You got me, man. :(
guess no smash history for Rayman then.
You can still talk about the games, right? PLEASE!?
I love your videos
Bet you were working on a video about this or something
hehehe >:)
Absolutely incredible work and probably one of the most convincing fakes I've ever seen anybody make! I would say "good job, man", but I kinda hate how you raised my hopes up so high since I really loved the idea of Rayman in Smash! Moral of the story: always assume these things are fake until proven otherwise!
Exactly. While people may hate him, he proved a point that people shouldn't believe a leak unless confirmed.
This totally inspires me to not only get better with Photoshop but also to learn AfterEffects and expand my skillset. Great work on this, love the attention to detail :)
I'm dying on the inside Jimmy, don't you go faking leaks on me too!
Just you wait, soon I'll be confirming Scrafty for Pokken Tournament!
Yeah, from a video edittor's stand point, this was amazing!
This man is awesome and he's pretty good.
Keep following your dreams, Skrillex.
To this day this is still one of the most impressive fakes I’ve ever seen
Well played.
***** I agree with that play
This leak was so good
the only downside being that we will most likely never get a leak as good as this again now that this shows how far a leaker has gone.
but that doesn't bother me, i still enjoy watching this after all these years, it's such a cool and interesting process, props to you Omni, you are extremely talented and i hope you go far in life.
This is a beautiful work of love!
My suggestions will be: Shantae and Shovel Knight! :D
Also Juan Aguacate can be cool :)
o mi dios encontre a daniel hipster sempai, estos comments esta llenos de famosos o mi diooooos hype
fuck off dude
Shantae and Shovel Knight are two of my favorite 2D games ever! I would love to see both of them in real Smash!
Mario Cesar Lerma Argueta ?
This is honestly the most elaborate fake I've ever seen.
Being a jackass is a full time job, i guess. I wonder what the pay is like.....
Brinksarsenal
Worked out pretty well for Steve Jobs.
Brinksarsenal You should know. Seems you're quite adept at it...
Brinksarsenal I'm incredibly salty right now.
Holy fuck i'm getting notifications every five seconds.
dude your hair is fucking S tier.
What if he was a Nintendo employee and the whole leak was real and was just faking the fake leak to end up having it real in the end, but fooling us by making this video?
enough disappointment already
Expand Dong Nuuu! Rayman fans vote here! cp.nintendo.co.jp/us/
*_MIND. BLOWN._*
Nah
LOL This was so perfect.
It's all ready a fake GOSH DAMN IT
You're ok with it because Sonic really was added :/. Just kidding lol, totally agree, this is really cool stuff and will definitely make people second guess leaks instead of jumping all over them, which is a good thing.
This was really good XD He got everybody
Hey therealsonicfan what's up and yeah this video was really perfect but I needed gameplay or at least changing his colors like the other characters .
Oozywolf Well I don't really care about Sonic in Smash, I suck as him. lol
Don't regret that smug intro, that was great! XD
oh hay
Rayman DLC Unconfirmed... HOO-HAH INTENSIFIES ~
Good job man =)
HOO~HAH!
deconfirmed*
A few years later, the Grinch leak
Hue
This one's is a situation much more similar to the ESRB leak tho
FAKE BOIS
Doritos :space jam flavoured g r a n c h
I personally never believed the Grinch leak. People never learn...
Now that's some talent.
You got that right!
Hey sully. Yeah this leak was really cool
I wish there was an Ice Climbers fake leak but for it then turn out to be a case of nintendo was actually working on it completely by coincidence. Did you know I was one of those people who REALLY wanted Ridley for smash, then to stop caring the second the Ice Climbers were cut?
Props for the editing sir.
This was amazing, hat's off to you. As an After Effects user, I know it's potential and that it is a powerful tool paired with Photoshop, but I never imagined you could go this far with it. Very, very clever stuff.
This man ruined my hopes and dreams when I was 7 and I want to thank him for it.
Smashify Shrek. Do it.
No.
Cretaceous Monisaur Yes
Praise the Ogrelord
*YES!*
Perfect
I almost want to be mad but you have WAY too much talent to be angry with. You're ridiculously good. o__o Definitely the most believable Smash fake I've ever seen!
My thoughts exactly
nice job dude. that was some mad skill
To think that 8 Years ago this man FOOLED Everyone. An now has a game of their very own that's getting kickstarted.
Very impressive, man! I love Rayman so seeing that this is fake does sorta hurt a bit, but I'll be damned if your art isn't super convincing.
This is beyond amazing, and in my honest opinion, completely makes up for the fact the leak was fabricated.
On that note, *1:* You should be hired in Nintendo (this is me speaking without knowing your background or current occupation, but really, you highhandedly managed to produce content that managed to convince everybody, you know what you're doing sir!)
And *2:* I can't wait to see what future projects you have in store if any; your process was just a spectacle to see, and it was almost shocking to believe that the results were even possible.
Though, for *3:* It'd be nice if Nintendo followed up by introducing Rayman as a character. Oh well, I guess I can keep watching the leak on repeat...
Haha, dude, if Nintendo and Ubisoft actually included Rayman in the game because of this fiasco, I would not know what to do with myself. I'd be happy enough to learn that they were planning it the whole time, but to actually be a catalyst for that kind of thing? Good gravy. o_o
Sheriff Woodie woody!? What are u doing on TH-cam?
It would've been hilarious if you did it with the least expected character, like all of the sudden shrek joins the fight, it looks pretty legit, I bet tons of people would've fallen for it
People would not fall for Shrek, but someone like Ridley would fool so many people.
***** Dude, you're underestimating the internet, there are a lot of dumb people out there, and doing ridley is just rude, I was one of those who believed it could happen, and really wanted to see it
aaronx83 No I'm pretty sure no one would fall for a Shrek leak.
GodzillaGamer101 Why not? He's equally as likely to get in as Rayman (which is 0%)
BalaTheHero9 Why does everyone say Rayman doesn't deserve to be in SSB. I haven't even played a single Rayman game and he still looks like he would be a fun and unique character to use. I haven't played a Rayman game, yet I know who he is as video game character. He feels very relevant being a Smash Bros Character.
4 months and I still haven't gotten over this smug-ass face, Omni. Four months.
I honestly hope Nintendo sees this and acknowledges your artwork. Your art is absolutely amazing and they probably would hire you.
Man, this was brilliantly made...not only did you prove many people wrong about the leak, but you also made a ton of Salty people angry.
Keep it up man.
You did an excellent job.
great editing btw.
YOU'RE GIVING AWAY ALL OUR SECRETS!
Sora from Kingdom Hearts.
:D
Woa hey Dean didn't know you were a smash fan~
I would prefer Roxas for smash though.
agreed, he would fit so well in smash XD
Davos Productions Alt skins though :3
Davos Productions Sora and goku for ssb4
Ok, so people are mad, rustled and butthurt over this, but you know what? I take my hat off, this leak was incredibly well done and extremely convincing, you proved the Internet that we can't even trust video leaks anymore and that we should now become a lot more skeptical than what we already are.
You have done a truly amazing job, congratulations
Honestly, whether people see it as annoying them or not, you're right. Artsy Omni pretty much confirmed that nobody should take a leak as real unless confirmed. However, too many people continue to do so anyway, and end up getting hurt when the leak turns out fake.
You MUST make Young Link. I know he was in Melee, but we'd all love to see him again. And give him the Hero's Shield from Majora's Mask!
***** Still
Well, you got Yink in Ultimate !
Those of you resorting to death threats or hoping he "burns in hell," should be ashamed of yourselves. You aren't, but you should be.
It's a hell of a gamble, I'll give him that. That much effort led to some extremely convincing content that shows off the quality of his work and got him mainstream headlines. I make extremely time-intensive content about games, I mostly try to be fair about everything and make entertaining and insightful videos, and I've yet to get a peep of attention for it from any larger sites. Controversy really can create a buzz.
That said, no matter how far he goes from here, he'll ALWAYS be known as the guy who did this, and there will always be a hatedom calling for his head. It's a hell of a double-edged sword, too. I'm interested to see the results.
It goes without saying, you know you made it big on TH-cam when internet users starts wishing you are dead without knowing you personally.
I still comeback to this vid only to remember to do not trust any leaks without proof.
Also leakers are scum and they often ruin the fun (-> Ryu and Roy)
+Gebirges
I hate it when people leak parts of the game, like you said, Ryu and Roy (Right before Nintendo announced themselves it no less), but watching the skill and attention to detail that this guy went through is impressive.
ace creyton Arti is a genius no question!
I never saw the Roy or Ryu leak so it was a surprise for me
The people who are getting upset at this are unbelievable.
First of all, you fell for what was an incredibly unlikely character announcement out of left field.
Then, you allowed yourself to get incredibly hyped up for it.
Finally, you aren't even appreciating the time and sheer talent that this guy put into making the fake. Shame on all of you.
I would love to appreciate this person's talent, if he wasn't using it for something as malicious as this.
BlackWidowSoldier099 This isn't malicious?
BlackWidowSoldier099
Malicious- intending or intended to do harm. This didn't harm anybody, nobody suffered harm from this. It was a prank, and a very elaborate one at that.
He's just salty, let him wash it down with a little water and he'll be fine.
Jose Gonzalez
Alright maybe that was a poor choice of words.
Dude...You got me good. After the Shulk and Bowser Jr. leak, I was for sure this leak would be real. But man, I got a good laugh after hearing it was fake.
Your skills are amazing though. But fair warning, thousand of people are pissed now because you fake leaked a character on the biggest game for the Wii U
I dunno what Ubisoft will do to you, but still...I had a good laugh. XD
Huh... XDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD
Nice to see you're not salty Pit.
Hopefully they'll say, "oh wow, everyone actually was hype for rayman. Maybe we could make a deal with Nintendo or something and make this a real thing."
(slowly claps like wolf)
This is one of the most well-done pranks I've ever seen. Props!
I really wanted Rayman to be in smash
I'm glad it's fake. Ubisoft doesn't deserve that honor.
yeah,,,ubishit
***** My comment got 20 thumps up meaning people agree with me. Also, judging opinions based on usernames? Really?
***** He's right though, ubisoft is pretty crappy.
***** You have guy in your username, so your opinions are invalid on anything involving humans.
dude ubisoft may be shit but , rayman is awesome ! you cant tell me it isnt .....
That was really well made! Congratulations man! You fooled us all! :)
HUH nicebbq, hi
Whoever did the grinch leak should make a vid like this!
They probably cant do a video like this due to the leaker potentially getting in trouble and facing serious consequences. Keep in mind the person who posted that leak works (or worked) for a french printing company.
Can you Smashify the Reckless Wiimote Guy that appears in the beginning of every Wii game? That would be hilarious.
Smashify Roy from Fire Emblem!
Roy's our boy
Cretaceous Monisaur if you watched the whole fucking video you would have seen that by "smashify" they're meaning something completely different
Cretaceous Monisaur Again, the Smashified series isn't fake leaks like Rayman, just Smash-style art. I thought humans had ears...
I'm rewatching this almost 4 years later and still I'm baffled at how amazingly well put together this leak was, it legitimately looked so real
8 years for me...
I'd really like to see Sora from Kingdom Hearts Dream Drop Distance in smash bros style
YES!!!!
sora sora sora sora sora sora sora sora sora sora sora sora sora sora sora
Fuck man it’s been 8 years 😢I’m old
What is Ubisoft gonna talk about Tuesday then?
a new broken game
They'll talk about how they'll release more unfinished games, and how much they enjoy throwing kittens into blenders, because they're evil.
If Rayman is actually in the game, I'm going to lose it.
Artsy Omni Also...will you do a time-lapse on the 3DS screenshot or no?
Artsy Omni It would be moderately amusing if they discovered your leak, and liked the idea of Rayman in Smash so much, that they approached Nintendo about it.
I don't know if anyone suggested this yet, but it would be cool to see how Goku would look like in Smash. I know it will never happen though but it would be interesting to see nonetheless.
Agreed, but Goku doesn't belong. Mewtwo belongs.
Champion Amarillo were already getting frieza as dlc anyway Kappa
We are getting Mewtwo fool! Frieza sucks
Champion Amarillo the joke, your head.
Please. Only video game characters. Goku would never appear in Smash and shouldn't either.
I always come back to this video at least once a year, I remember when this first came out
Can’t believe this is the same channel as the mother 3 tribute
Hey Omni. You did really well on this and had me fooled. It was pretty crazy, and I hope to see more episodes of Smashified when you can. I have a suggestion. I want to see everyone's favorite ogre, Shrek, in an episode of Smashified. The logo is really simple. It's the S with the ogre ears on the titles of the Shrek movies. I can't wait until the project is "ogre". The hype train is rolling. -ripjaw105
Shrek would be hilarious
Caketake Prepare for your life to be "ogre". This is my swamp now.
R.I.P Rayman.. I was thinking about how his moves would work, his final smash, his recovery... oh well... :-(
Hey what's up Dawko, didn't expect you in here! ;)
Aye Dawko!
3 hours ago you had 100 subscribers.
Now you have 8k.
Your plan worked out.
SSB4 leaks will NEVER be the same after this. You have some great talent!
Sakurai better employ you lmao
pls
Sakurai: Your job is to make leaks.
Artsy: :3
Freezeflame22 :P Oh shit, Sakurai is already a huge troll, combine that with this? You get a huge masterpiece of hype and uncertainty xD
BassSinger313 lol
Let me be honest, that, without a doubt, is one of the greatest smash leaks that I have seen in my entire life, as a somewhat Rayman fan, I felt convinced that he was coming to smash bros, but why would they announce another DLC in February? I'm a little pissed of, but somewhat impressed at the same time. Well played...
Well, it isn't a leak. But it is a fantastic fake that took a lot of time to put together, yes.
YOU'D BETTER DO SHIJOU TAKANE SON, I WANNA SEE THE BEST IDOL IN SMASH STYLE BRO.
hey dude, you are the one with the epic music mixes :D
Highly doubt it.
If he shopped Ridley than he probably would've fooled more people.
Triple-Q op
I was sad when I first found out this was fake but I think you did a very impressive job of making it look legitimate. I actually like smashified select screens like this. I hope you do more like this so I can learn more about After Effects myself.
Guys he works for Nintendo, he's trying to trick us! He made this video to say the leaks were fake, but they aren't! You can't trick us!
Dreamchase Jay
That or the leak was so realistic that even the Ubisoft reps weren't sure what was going on because it could be a project from a department under a non-disclosure agreement or nintendo breaking copyright law, so they needed to call the office to check cause even they weren't sure.
In other words, Artsy even trolled Ubisoft.
ITS A DOUBLE FAKE!
I'm really impressed with this! You made a lot of people uncomfortable because it seemed so real, and if that's not a testament to your artistic skills I don't know what is. I think I might subscribe and check your channel out, and follow you on deviantART too. (Was this your plan all along?)
I haven't seen your other videos yet, but have you done Shantae Smashified? What about Sami from Advance Wars? Or Wolf, perhaps.
I second Shantae. That would be really awesome to see.
***** Same tbh
Since Smash Wii U modding is becoming more and more advanced Rayman in smash could be possible it'll just take some time for modders to do such a thing at this point in time
RAYMAN FOR SSB5
His a spirit in ultimate
No
Smashify Ashley from Warioware.
I'm equal parts impressed and disappointed.
You're fucking talented dude.
In all honesty Rayman will always have a better chance at getting into smash than my boy waluigi. 💀
What I've learned to achieve 20k subs:
1. Know how to use After Effects/Photoshop
2. Use a a fairly hyped character that has a fair chance at DLC
3. Use your Photoshop/After Effects skills.
4. Post it on 4chan.
5. Say the leak is fake, get hate, but still get publicity.
Thanks Omi! ^^
thank you so much artsy omni
A classic moment in Smash history man
Plot Twist: The leak is real, but this guy is trying to make people believe that it is fake.
Dun Dun DUUUUUUUUN!
If only...
Yeah he is going to make a video about how he made this leak looking fake :D
This is amazing! Wow I'm a second year Graphic Design major right now, and I hope that by the end of college i'll have this kind of skill. This is inspirational, the level of detail is crazy.
PLEASE DO CHROM FROM FIRE EMBLEM AWAKENING PLEASE
but chrom already have a render and is in game
and Roy
DAHAKA persico So does Ray Man
Do Ridley. I'd love to see the resulting shit-flinging from both sides.
Shawn Pal Rayman is in it as a trophy. Chrom is in it as a final smash. There is a difference.
I'm not even mad that rayman was fake.
Man, I've just subscribed to your channel. You got skills, impressive skills. You made a fool of everybody, me included. I actually thought this was freaking real. But you know what? As they say "I ain't even mad". I actually chuckled while watching the start of this video. Kudos. Your Klonoa model is also well-done.
If you really want suggestions about what character to "smash-ify" next, could I suggest Simon Belmont from Castlevania? He was a big name during the NES and SNES times. Just...use his game design, even the effeminate animu one would be okay. Don't use the Captain N one, please.
I second this. I would love to see a Smashify of Simon Belmont.
Despite being a prank. This is some really impressive work. It was interesting to see how you put it all together.
So... why, exactly, did you think this was a good idea?
good question.
Because it was an awesome prank.
Artsy Omni And for all good questions, we turn to television for the answer.
The RAYMAN text shadow is 0% luminous whereas the other characters' texts look around 15%.
why are people getting so mad about this? it's just a fake game DLC, and he clearly demonstrated serious video editing talent. you guys need to calm down
The word "rayman" underneath the character art you made is darker than the other characters, this was the only difference i was able to see; good job mayn
I'm actually really impressed. Dang. Right on.
This was absolutely fantastic. I mean I personally didn't believe that the leak was real the moment I saw the reasoning behind the initial leak video's removal, but it really did looking pretty convincing! Good job trolling the Smash's fanbase buddy boy!
Anyways, as for someone I'd like to see Smashified next, how about Mappy?
I believe he's done Klonoa?
BioRhythmicAnims Ah so he has.
I'll edit my post to change my suggestion then.
TeirusuFX Riki the Heropon? I mean your photo suggests you like him.
ThatBritishYoshi I'd love for Riki to be playable! But the fact that he's an assist trophy kinda means that he's already technically in the game.
TeirusuFX hes also already part of Shulk's final smash
Dude, this isn't even your first offense. I remember last year when you posted to 4chan a "corrupt zip" containing fucking Klonoa in Smash, along with a broken Palutena image, because you probably knew Palutena was coming. Man, fool me once, shame on you, fool me TWICE, shame on ME. Well fucking done, Omni. You have my fear, you have my praise, you have my shame, but most importantly, you have my respect.
That is so freaking awesome! Great job pulling all that together!
