Character Sheet: Sergeant Kooperman

SERGEANT KOOPERMAN

Now, we have finished the television series, and we have SO many characters to cover, from all across the spectrum. There are a few characters here and there that might get a few upgrades to their movesets, mostly being the Donkey Kong cast (one example, I think Klump should absolutely have a Klaptrap gun now). But, there are so many that are so distinct from their game counterparts, I could only make a brand new slot for them. They are:

1.     Beezo

2.     Flurry

3.     Rex

4.     Tryclyde

5.     TV Mario

You know, going into this, I was figuring on making Sergeant Kooperman simply an echo of Salvador since they're both heavily connected to the Plumbers Academy Mario and Luigi attended, but now that I'm thinking about it, he's got plenty on his own. Sergeant Kooperman is a cruel and vindictive instructor from the episode "Plumbers Academy" who torments Mario and Luigi for much of their first week at the school. Although he was voiced by Harvey Atkin, plays a villainous role, and has Koopa in his name, he does not seem to have any connection to King Koopa. Across the episode, he forces the brothers to carry a bathtub up a full fire escape under a time limit, unclog a sink filled with slop, dig a deep hole, fit together an impossible mess of pipes and then sprays a fire hose all over them in the middle of doing so, and finally messes up his own plumbing assignment by getting a sack of drain buster confused with a sack of concrete and ends up flooding all of Brooklyn.

Here's the moveset I came up with:

Standard B: Fire Hose

Based on his moment of "playing dirty" while the brothers piece together a mess of pipes, he will bring out a fire hose and switch it on, blasting anyone in front of him with water.

Side B: Unclogged Sink

He will work a sink with his plunger for a moment before breaking the clog inside loose and sending it flying up into the air as a projectile behind him.

Up B: Bathtub

He will jump into a bathtub carried by two of his students, who will carry it up a fire escape that will appear in the air.

Down B: Hole

He will pull out a shovel and start digging a hole in the ground. This will be a staged move, much like Villager's tree. By the time, the third stage is finished, he will have dug a deep hole in the stage that a character will be able to fall into.

Final Smash: Cement Clog

He will pour a bag of cement down a manhole that will appear in the stage. The stage will then start to rumble as water builds and builds, finally bursting from the manhole and flooding the entire stage.

Entrance: He will strut onto the stage, looking full of himself.

Taunts: Up, he will use his stick to smack a whiteboard. Side, he will probably say something like "you don't have the right stuff." Down, he will peer down into a manhole and take a drink of water as if mocking those working below.

Thanks for reading! Next up is the Flab Boys of Rap Land!
