Skullgirls DLC Character vote | The Campaign united us, The Voting will destroy us

Alex Ahad: Beowulf is a guy getting back into the ring, looking for a good fight
someone else (probably Render): So he's like Ryu?

I AWAIT MORE SALT

Fucking Ryu allusions now? Oh man, this character better be hype as shit personality wise or I'mma be sad. Ryu is the blandest character in fighting games.

Oh please, guy's an out-of-retirement pro wrestler who's ripped off a fucking Gigan's arm and his best friend is a chair.

There's no way we aren't in for a treat.
 
Stahp it, Moonlight. Before you make feel as I should.

Wallow with me.

What kind of character is Beowulf?

Alex: "He's just a guy looking for a good fight."

Hooray for generic characters.

Duck King is so magnanimous that he only appeared in one game; he wanted to give the other fighters 11 years or so to warm up before he showed them how to swag-fight.

SNK had a fanvote for KOF97 in Gamest. Billy/Mary/Yamazaki won. Duck King was the Annie of that game.

The man has inspirations from the "Macho Man" and "The Ultimate Warrior". Plus Ravidrath has compared the character to Kamina from Gurren Lagaan. I don't think we have to worry about a boring character.

On another note, how long did it take Alex to make that art? They knew Eliza won after like two days of the week long final Round One vote so they had plenty of time to do the art (the Eliza pic is MUCH more elaborate than the Beowulf pic). However they only knew Beowulf won like when earlier today? Last night? That's really quick turnaround no?
 
Yay, two characters I voted for made it.
And the characters I want the most (B. Dahlia and Umbrella) will debut in SG2 :D

The way I see the guys in this game is the way I see the girls in other fighting games. Big Band and Beowulf are totally the Chun-Li and Cammy of this game.

Technically, Duck King was the Annie of Gamest, but I know what you mean. Sometimes I lie awake at night and wonder which characters Billy and Yamazaki beat out in Neo Geo Freak and Famitsu.

Overall, this whole voting campaign stuff has been pretty fun to watch. Now we just have to wait and see how the shoe drops tomorrow, when everyone has a chance to think about what they've done.

Squiggly looks better every time I see her on stream, and the new stuff that's been demonstrated on stream looks great, so I'm pretty excited about the updates that'll come out further down the line, too.

That's the only KOF game that he's been playable in! Up until that point in the series, he just made cameo appearances in artwork and backgrounds. And since we were talking about KOF specifically, well, there ya go.

But more people need to play Fatal Fury, so I'll just count this post as a PSA.

I'm not sure what will be worse to find out. That a victory by Annie was just within our grasp or that it was never in the realm of possibility in the first place.
 
I was just starting to warm up to Annie too

As far as a male character making it in, Beowulf was far and away the most likely. He's a dudebro stereotype

Ah OK, my bad heh.
 
No Aeon? No Minette? No Feng? ;_;

I can't even say I'm ok with Beowulf. Oh well, there's plenty of other characters to play as. Stupid wolf wrestler guy with a chair grumble grumble grumble...
