King D-Mind

KING D-MIND

At the end of the game, during the line of bosses leading up to the end, a new powerful entity will be summoned, attacking his summoner with his hammer before facing Team Kirby as the final boss.

This is King D-Mind, a powerful entity that takes on a form similar to King Dedede for unknown reasons. It would reappear as a major boss in the sequel game as well.

As a fighter, he will have similar stats and strengths to King Dedede, with a bit more power behind him. His moveset will pull from his boss battles throughout the series.

Likelihood rating: Probably not.

Beam Mage

BEAM MAGE

And finally, we have our spellcaster.

This is the Beam Mage, a combination of Kirby’s Beam ability and the various spellcaster archetypes.

As a fighter, he will be similar to Kirby as always, except heavily focused on ranged magical attacks. His moveset will come from his moves in the game.

Likelihood rating: Probably not.

Doctor Healmore

DOCTOR HEALMORE

As for the third member, what party would be complete without a healer?

This comes in the form of Doctor Healmore, combining Kirby’s Doctor ability with the cleric archetype.

As a fighter, he will once again be similar to Kirby, if lacking a lot of defensive moves but making for a solid support character. His moveset will come from his moves in the game.

Likelihood rating: Probably not.

Hammer Lord

HAMMER LORD

The second member of this band was a strong barbarian wielding a hammer.

This is the Hammer Lord, combining Kirby’s Hammer ability with the barbarian archetype.

As a fighter, he will likewise be similar to Kirby if heavier and stronger. His moveset will pull from his moves in game.

Likelihood rating: Probably not.

Sword Hero

SWORD HERO

As the Nintendo eShop started to become a thing, so too did a number of expanded versions of small mini-games in the various Kirby games. One among these is Team Kirby Clash, a sort of D & D style game set in an alternate universe where a band of adventurers take on jobs to defeat various monsters attacking the local kingdom.

The leader of this band is the Sword Hero, a combination of Kirby’s sword ability and the paladin archetype.

As a fighter, Sword Hero will have similar attributes as Kirby, if a little bit speedier. His moveset will pull from his moveset in game.

Likelihood rating: Probably not.

Team Kirby Clash Deluxe

TEAM KIRBY CLASH DELUXE

Team Kirby Clash Deluxe is yet another mini-game expanded into a full e-shop game, this one particularly controversial due to the microtransactions present in the game practically required to progress. The story is set in an alternate D&D-style universe where a band of adventurers come to the Dream Kingdom, and get hired out to fight various monsters rampaging, earning in-game money in the process.

Your team of adventurers are Team Kirby: Sword Hero, a Kirby based on Sword Kirby/a paladin, but with a few more elements such as a bubble shield and a more fleshed-out moveset; Hammer Lord, a Kirby based on Hammer Kirby/a barbarian, with a lot of powerful hammer attacks; Doctor Healmore, a Kirby based on Doctor Kirby/a cleric, with lots of healing abilities based more on those old-timey remedies; and Beam Mage, a Kirby based on Beam Kirby/a wizard, with powerful spells like the ability to control time.

Magolor and Bandana Waddle Dee act as your main allies, with Magolor as the town merchant who sells you all the microtransaction stuff. Then the monsters you fight include Waddle Dee, Kabu, Hot Head, Mr. Frosty, King Doo, Gigant Edge, Kracko, Kibble Blade, Bonkers, Blocky, Whispy Woods, Miasmoros, Ice Dragon, Greater Doomer, Pyribbit, Telepathos, Landia, Taranza, parallel world versions of Susie, Landia, and Taranza, and a final boss named King D-Mind. King D-Mind looks like King Dedede mixed with Dark Mind, and has moves based on both, wielding a hammer that can shoot missiles and a large poleaxe, while also having an eye on his belly and so on.

The battles take place on arenas around Dream Kingdom, including Grasslands, Dunes, Ruins, Volcano, Empyrean, and the Decisive Battlefield.
