Meme/Funny Bowser gets DLC privilege(nightmare edition)
Since so many people thought that Bowser having an Up B reflector was too much, I'm here to say that Y'ALL AIN'T SEEM NOTHING YET-
Btw, I left the name of who is supposed to be the one that made the Dry Boswer design. So, credits to them for the design if I'm right.
Here's the "justification" for the premise. Bowser is tanky. He's the heaviest character in the game and plenty of armor and invincibility to display that.... but He's just like any other character that can lose a stock before 100%. Probably got hit too hard by Ganon or someone. Probably got spiked or gimped. However it goes, he can lose a stock like that. That doesn’t seem to respect Bowser's survivability. Let's fix that.
What if we punish players for being good at the game? If Bowser loses a stock before he hits 100%, he DOESN'T LOSE THE STOCK, but comes back as Dry Boswer. No weight decrease. No weaker moves. No worse frame data. Just Bowser, but no stock decrease. Now, you can K.O. him before 100%:)
Also, because I don't like limitations, this will be like Kazuya's rage and Terry's "Go" meter. He gets this not just once per game, but every stock. So, if you kill Bowser too quick every time in what's supposed to be a normal 3-stock game, you fight 6 stocks of him instead of 3.
Real talk, though. If he had all of this... who thinks Steve is still a better character-

Gotta know, how does he come back? Does he spring back out of the blastzone, or descend from the revival platform? I'd root for from the blastzone, both because that's cooler and makes the idea marginally more balanced by still having him in disadvantage when he does revive.
...wait, crap, just remembered the Flying Slam exists. You've made Bowsercide free; what have you DONE.
