Injustice 2 Roster Discussion & Speculation Thread


Wow, looking good. She's got some tricks, it looks like. Her trait is a sonic scream that gets stronger the more you don't use it(three different strengths), maxing out at a scream that causes a wallsplat that can lead into a combo--she can even combo INTO the max sonic scream for an extended combo.

She also has some sort of command dash, an aerial overhead/command grab that can be meter burned for a launch. She looks nice, I'd like to play her!


We also got to see some Deadshot gameplay. His zoning looks about as good as Deathstroke's did, plus he has something resembling Green Arrow's trait--he loads his guns with special bullets. He has fire bullets and what I'm guessing are acid bullets. Fire bullets deal a small damage over time on hit, and I'm guessing acid bullets either cause damage over time on block or give higher block damage.


Injustice 2 is still looking damn good. 'Looking forward to it~!
 
Have to agree, Black Canary seems rad. Some sick looking combos. Supergirls walking eye laser is still my favorite move in the game though.
 
Including myself and the community and I'd assume people here be down on these 2 changed

1.make the timer from 90 to 99

Time outs are hype we all agree but if nearly every match comes down to the last ten seconds it's a little much lol

When you're in critical mode you cannot die by chip like how it is in SFV would create some really hype moments
 
Deadshots trait seems similar to Green Arrows from the first game, being able to change the bullet type. Guess Arrow might get something new.
 
Is it me or are alot of the characters who are on the right side of the intro crosseyed all the time?

Canary looked funny in some of the intros like the same Wonder Woman did.
 
Black Canary looks fun, though I'm still 50/50 about the filter they added to Deadshot's voice. It makes sense given the helmet, but I was kinda used to his voice not having a filter.

Will probably have a normal voice when he doesn't have a helmet like Scorpion in MKX.
 
It's probably Grodd or Aquaman. WoWo was announced along with Blue Beetle but have we seen gameplay footage of trailers?

I think we've seen her in actual gameplay once or twice, but yeah, super odd we got nothing from her. Wonder when Boon will tease the next character for the beta... Hopefully soon. And hopefully the hint won't be so easy :p

fake edit: looks like it's not Aquaman, according to Boon.
 
We do need a new female rep in the beta. Right now it's a complete sausage fest lol. However, I'm dying to try to out Grodd so I really hope it's him. Get ready for all the Harambe messages from people.
I kind of hoped we would get a new lightning user for I2 but it looks unlikely aside from some of Aquaman's attacks. Livewire would be cool.
 
It'll probably be Wonder Woman or Harley, giving us two returning men, one returning woman, two new men, and one new woman in the beta.
 
I wish Canary's win pose had her going riding off on her motorcycle towards the camera. So much more badass than the awkward pose we got.
 
All I took away from that video is that Deadshot is going to be nerfed due to people not being patient enough to learn how to get around his zoning. Gonna be Deathstroke 2.0.
 
I hope they don't do another wipe... I JUST started collecting my armor for Bats again....

Oh you know they will lol. I wasn't that upset the first time but it will sting more this time because I haven't gotten much for beetle yet :(. I don't want to start the progression over again lol.


EDIT 2: Boon just confirmed on Twitter that the new beta character is NOT Aquaman.
 
I haven't done the math, but based on the speculated roster size, we're probably looking at a weekly reveal on average, yeah?

That's what I theorize. It's possible that not every character will be revealed before the game releases, because Killer Frost and Ares were leaked before Injustice 1 launched.

Honestly, after the slow drip feed that we got last year, NRS needs to continue with this Injustice 2 media blitz.
 
I just rewatched that Ares/KF trailer, and my God, I am SO glad they stopped using those shitty "cinematic" camera angles.

I2 just looks so much better in general.

Gotta say though, they did a great job with her face.


..Now show me Ivy, Netherrealm.
 
According to who? The official trailer released a week or so after the leak. It didn't strike me as rushed.


It doesn't play out like any other reveal or trailer, it was more akin to the fan voted battle and there was no fanfare or hints or build or anything. It was just like "here's the last two characters".
 
Website got updated, character reveal is now happening on Feb 13th instead of Feb 7th.

Most likely whatever they had planned for the 7th (If it was new) is gonna happen on the Watchtower Stream on the 8th.

Though it's also possible that that particular news got pushed back a week.
