I can't get over how funny Eliza's goons look, especially the chicken-headed one. I mean look at him, why's he wearing reading glasses and a fez? It makes no sense! The glasses don't even work on him, he has no ears, how are they holding on to his head, pharaoh magic?

Good stuff.

I didn't want to jinx myself this round and so I predicted that someone I didn't like will win so I wouldn't feel bad. Losing Beowulf hurt ;_;

 

[Loona]

Nope, it's got to be done. Eliza is Skullgirls' Mai. She needs a similar idle stance after a certain period at neutral.

Valentine already has that kind of stance and that damn thermomether victory pose detracting from the medical ninja concept, which should have been more than enough to characterize her at a glance - heck, it got Sarkeesian's attention.

Better keep it classy for Eliza, it's part of her charm and something that keeps her tolerable despite being a villain.

Yeah definitely just gonna sit this one out and play marvel. There are interesting characters over there.

You all have fun with your vote though.

U
"don't go asking for "a packet of fags" in New York" I should try that, I might get lucky (or punched on the face)

Eliza is a better pick than 90% of Marvel's cast of shit characters.

 

[Hellsing321]

Woke up this morning and had to double check that Eliza winning was an alcohol induced dream last night. Sooooo gooood. And that art is godly. Using it as the background on my phone right now.

Those glasses are propped up on his beak with...beak pads, I guess? haha

I didn't even notice that guy, but he's kinda neat. I guess it makes sense that she's got a Moroccan assistant, although all I see in him is Morocco Mole (the placement of that staff doesn't help, either).

You aren't serious right.

You aren't comparing this character in a obscure game to several decades of comic book history, and the allstars of the capcom roster.

Yes, marvel characters are popculture icons for good reason.

 

[Ultimadrago]

I didn't even notice the Fez. That's awesome.

I wonder if they'll be incorporated into any of her special moves like Peacock with Andy and Tommy.

I play Marvel too, the fact that the characters are old as crap isn't an argument over them being better. I like several characters but I ended up enjoying Skullgirls way more.

even if Dormammu's pretty freaking cool

Other than making you look like a complete moron.

It does mean something, they resonate with people. Do you think marvel movies make money magically. Do you think kids like people like super heroes for no reason.


And I haven't even started on the capcom side, Dante and Viewtiful joe invalidate your whole argument.

Do not ask how they just do.

 

[The Grim Heaper]

They probably will be, right? Or maybe incorporated into her win pose? They come out and hold the opponent down as Eliza sucks them dry.

I'm the biggest VJ fan, I get it man... but just because of all that it doesn't mean those characters are automatically better. I care a lot of the mechanics of the game and Marvel just..... well I prefer to play SF4 or Skullgirls.

 

[SDBurton]

Annie needs to get in. Would love to see her have an inferiority complex to Eliza's "assets".

It isnt because of the amount, it is what the characters are and where they have been that make them better. For now, we do not know where skull girls can go. But for right now it just isn't a comparison to be made. Especially on the marvel side of the roster.

You prefer other fighting games, that is fine, Tekken is my favorite. But I will be damned if I said that Kazuya Mishishima had anywhere near the amount character that Dr. Strange has in his tights.

 

[flaxknuckles]

Thank Cheesus she won. I couldn't stand it if a loli had gotten in instead. Now we need Panzerfaust and my year will be golden.

 

[Roubjon]

Just woke up to this and it's awesome. Hopefully Beowulf, Stanley, or Panzerfaust makes it next time.

 

[NEO0MJ]

Annie needs to get in. Would love to see her have an inferiority complex to Eliza's "assets".

I think Annie doesn't give a fuck about them. Now Feng, there's a character that would feel bad. She's supposed to be the same age as cerebella (I think?) and yet looks like a 12 year old.

 

[El Sloth]

Egyptian Bird-God Bouncer for playable plz

 

[Loona]

Annie needs to get in. Would love to see her have an inferiority complex to Eliza's "assets".

Annie would probably be more concerned with stopping Eliza from getting the Skullheart - I expect her to show up in Eliza's ending to do just that, and it probably wouldn't be the first time in their histories either.

 

[DR2K]

Dude seriously.

Comic book characters are cool. Not the ones in UMVC3, but in general.

 

[wildfire]

Next round these will be my highest ranked characters

Stanley
Brain Drain
Isaac
Ottomo
Molly

Need more ranged characters and dicks.

Annie needs to get in. Would love to see her have an inferiority complex to Eliza's "assets".

How about we don't perpetuate anime cliches :|

Which is why Team Bloody Stars is the truth. We already have the Blood Goddess, tiem for the Paladin of The Stars to round it out.

Also, Marvel heads and Skullbros, play nice.

No one is mad all the time.

 

[El Sloth]

So, Team Fuck The Last Final Four, who are we rallying behind?

Black Dhalia? Panzerfaust? Isaac? Beatrix? Brain Drain? Beowulf? Molly? Adam?

Divided we will fall. United we can troll.

 

[Mauricio_Magus]

No one is mad all the time, well except for wolverine anyways.

I hope Annie's pissed of all the time, even when she acts happy or whatever haha

Beowulf has the best shot at taking it if he gets some backing from stuff like this.

I'm not surprised others don't!

[SAB CA]

The sooner people realize Minette is suppose to be in her mid/upper teens, and therefore, not a "loli", the better.

Nope, it's got to be done. Eliza is Skullgirls' Mai. She needs a similar idle stance after a certain period at neutral.

Naa, easily have Valentine for that.

The wait to see these characters start appearing in game is gonna be fun! Ha. It is nice seeing the progress, though. The salt stirred from these votes is going to be long-remembered, represented, and relived, for quite a few months now...

 

[shaowebb]

So far new roster looks like:

1. Peacock
2. Filia
3. Cerebella
4. Parasoul
5. Ms. Fortune
6. Painwheel
7. Valentine
8. Double
   
   [*]Squiggly
   [*]Big Band
   [*]Robo Fortune
   [*]Eliza
   [*]???

Thats pretty good. 13 total and a lot of variety. The meta is gonna explode with that many additions given the custom team size and custom assist nature of this game.

 

[NEO0MJ]

The only problem is that it will take over a year for all the characters to be complete.

 

[SDBurton]

I'm hoping last poll showed that we cannot be divided on Annie and Minette. We need to all push on Annie to make sure she wins.
