And the color DLC is finally hitting, too!

http://blog.us.playstation.com/2013/05/14/skullgirls-color-dlc-today-new-characters-coming/

Sony moved mountains for us to get this out today - we are extremely grateful.

Please thank Mangod (@ShaneWatch) on Twitter, because he played a key role in that.

Ooooh my god dat Filia Scanty color!! Would've been better if her hair was blue so she could be Kneesocks instead but I don't care! And those Modoka Magica color palettes, so fucking awesome.

Spoiler

Please let Annie have all of those if she gets in.

God damn is the character art for Madoka fucking bad. Worst thing about it.

Spoiler

and the ending

Smh.

 

[QisTopTier]

Smh.

I'm sorry you are a fan of mutants. But outside of the character's costumes, the characters just look bad. Madoka's body proportions piss me off the most out of all of them as well. Looks like it was drawn by some kid in school.

I always post then I go... wait no I hate this too... wait and this... oh but there was this.

So same as me. I think I edit every post I make.

Including this one.

Another day... another Annie.

Woa... woah.

Sloth, I haven't even ventured online yet, I'm still screwing around in tutorials wondering why my fingers turned all hammy trying to get this air dash cancel combo with Filia.

The air dash cancelling is killing me, too.

I don't know if CiscoKid has an XBL account, but if you see that name then turn the fuck around.

So uh how can I get back to my humble skullgirls area if I forgot to add it to my account?
Need to download the soundtrack again and realized I deleted the email that it came with :X

I'm liking that Luka Parasoul (even though I suck at using her)! Scanty Filia and Homura Cerebella are also very nice.

Don't watch Hidamari Sketch then (same character designer. Also WIDEFACE, which predated WARFACE by a couple of years).

Parasoul already has a Kneesocks color.

Thank you Mike Z for the Peacock nerfs.

Merely a minor setback. We Peacocks will do just fine with two bombs!

Long live homing item drops! Long live assists that push people back!

 

[Azure J]

I'm just glad I won't have to do rekka motions just to put multiple bombs on the screen. He keeps messing with item drops though with the recent builds especially with their tracking properties.

OmgItzDroppedCombos got nothing on me !

The homing item drops got a nerf too. Instead of homing anywhere on screen the M and H item drops are dependent on the opponent's position on screen. Peacock players need to know where the opponent wants to be instead of just throwing out H item drop all day.

 

[DR2K]

I'm warming up to Minette... God help me.

 

[Hitokage]

With the exception of Ms. Fortune, all of them are because they're the English VAs for those Madoka characters.

Ms. Fortune is because that.

Yeah, that.

Once some money issues get resolved within a couple of days, I plan on getting the color packs. It looks like I'll have another alternate color option for Parasoul to use (Jessica Rabbit) alongside the Mitsuru one I frequently use. Man some of these colors are too good.

This is terrible news. I have to actually think now?!

Sounds like a fair nerf. Of course I'll wait and see how it actually ends up since Mike changes his mind every other week, but I think things will be fine if H doesn't track anymore. Now I have a reason to use the other two.

Thing wot everyone missed: Black Torch interviews Lab Zero's art team about Black Torch.

Also, friendly reminder that the Black Torch kickstarter is ongoing for another three days, and it's currently reached the BOOOOK goal and the BOOOOKMARK goal, and a little over $2,500 to go before it hits the STIIIICKER goal.

Quoting this again for those who missed it. 35 hours left with just $160 short of the $18,000 stretch goal. I pledged $10 yesterday. I wanted the $35 anthology + sketchbook + postcard deal, but I would have to fork out another $15 for international shipping, and my wallet is running dry, so... :/

 

[Cyrano]

Tell that to the background artist.

Hey I liked those whacky drunken pastel-color wonderlands.

I wasn't a huge fan of the story or the characters (or the character concepts or art), but environment direction in Madoka is pretty amazing.

haha that's what I was saying, the background stuff wasn't generic

I think I pledged $50 for that $35 deal because of intl shipping.

No regrets!

 

[Hitokage]

Super sentai shows have never really been about their artistic choices.

Magical girl shows, however, have.

Those new colours look so good

Put up that Steam preorder so I can give you guys more money

Eh, no Valentine Taki?!

Wow. I love that rule 63 beowulf. Me want.

Ravi, will you be able to tell us how well the dlc colors sell? Or at least say if they have a higher than average attach rate?

God, if only this was the case I'd be a lot less stressed right now. :lol

 

[Beckx]

After a dreadful day or two, it's time for:

Beckx's Totally Valid and Justified, Not Just Made Up Predictions!

Minette receives most first place votes.
Black Dahlia wins.

I hope Black Dahlia wouldn't win this one.

I hope Black Dahlia wouldn't win this one.

If Gaf is any indication she probably will.

 

[Hitokage]

If Gaf is any indication she probably will.

If past rounds of voting have proved anything, it's that GAF isn't an indication.

Last rounds top 4 was a riot.

 

[Nyoro SF]

Nah. I think despite this runoff voting that it's still a showdown of the Annie and Minette teams vs. Beowulf. And given the way the ranking system works, I bet that Annie or Minette will win. Having a tandem unified voting bloc is too stronk in this scenario.

I am skeptical that Annie/Minette are a tandem unified voting block. (Assuming you mean that people who put one first generally put the other second.)

 

[Hitokage]

There's also the Aeon factor.

 

[Jawmuncher]

Unbeknownst to most Panzerfaust took the lead silently.

Dont say something looks like it was drawn by a kid in school, its a silly argument (one that people have thrown at Skullgirls before!) It doesnt make you sound convincing in the least.

Madoka has that ultra kid friendly style for a very good reason, to have sharp contrast with the witches, to lure in fans of the artstyle (in order to then blow their minds) and for the story to have a lot more impact because it deconstructs the genre.

Great ending too.

 

[Mista Koo]

I'm going to assume that Annie is winning to not get disappointed.

 

[Azure J]

There's also the Aeon factor.

At the end of these votes, I want exact statistics on who voted for who because eon consistently putting up the numbers is absolutely mystifying to me. She has the single most quiet character legion behind her. None of the circles I frequent that know of the vote have any sort of indication that Aeon's a heavy hitter and yet there she is in both finals.

 

[Beckx]

I'm going to assume that Annie is winning to not get disappointed.

This sentence should be taken into the street and shot.
