Just some notes I've been jotting down on what kind of a roster I'd make. I cut a few and added more. Also changes I'd might make to characters.

Toad
Special: Pickaxe

Uses voice from the games.
Dixie Kong
Special: Gumball Popgun

King K. Rool
Special: Crown Toss
Up Special: Kopter Rise
Down Special: Krusha Slam
Forward Special: Blunderbuss
K. Rool has surprisingly fast and quirky movements despite his size and weight. He's one of the heaviest characters and still very agile. However a lot of his moves leave him open and vulnerable. His odd movements can trip people up and make him unpredictable.

Better recovery and aerial movement. KO Punch is gone.
R.O.B.
His Side Special is less powerful than it was in SSB4.
Takamaru
Special: Shuriken
Up Special: Vanish Scroll

Special: Gun
Up Special: Air Dash
Down Special: Pod

Down Special: Recharge

Up Special: Drum Bounce
Down Special: Amp
Forward Special: Tambourine
All of Barbara's moves involve using musical instruments and she's brought a ton! She can drop an Amp on the stage that can shoot soundwaves or toss a tambourine like a disc. A lot of her standard moves rely on using her guitar like a bat or ax.

No changes.
Inkling
Special: Splat Charger
Up Special: Super Jump
