Ripple884 claimed that he had plagiarized from ''SD Remix''{{'}}s {{SSBM|Zelda}}, {{SSBM|Link}}, {{SSBM|Donkey Kong}}, {{SSBM|Ness}}, {{SSBM|Mr. Game & Watch}}, and {{SSBM|Bowser}}; of particular note was his plagiarism of a mistake that the ''SD Remix'' team had made involving an attempt to make Link's [[up smash]] connect properly. This would only further damage his reputation in the competitive ''Melee'' community, particularly because he had previously criticized ''SD Remix'' at the outset of his series for making characters too powerful. | ||
Following these accusations, scrumpy removed the download links for each of the plagiarized "Rebalanced" characters, but did not make a statement addressing the controversy. | Following these accusations, scrumpy removed the download links for each of the plagiarized "Rebalanced" characters, but did not make a statement addressing the controversy. | ||
