I'm more than willing to accept Chrom if they can do something unique with him. Right now it looks like he'll probably just be Marth 2.0, but I can also imagine him, just based on his character design, as being a more aloof fighter with medium-to-heavy swings in the medium speed range. His hair is probably a dark enough shade of blue that it could be distinguishable from Marth and Ike, and leans towards black.
I guess I haven't done a great job of making my stance clear. I don't have anything against Chrom, and if Sakurai can make him feel like a new character and get his character across through stance and animation, then there's probably a lot of potential there for a really cool character. I'll have to see him in action, really, but right now I don't have much confidence.
Edit: CBL, go play a FE game. They're awesome.
