I absolutely love the way the Golem looks! He's so monstrous! I can't wait to see what he plays like. 
Also.. Gargos' theme mixed in.. sogood.gif

Strange that the Combo pack owners won't get him until February, I figured they'd just release for both at the same time in this case since release was delayed. The addition of Gargos' theme was a nice touch. Omen looks better now than he did during the initial unveiling, nice to see they took feedback. Not sure what my opinion is on the Golem character until I see more.
Who knows the status of his moveset or stage... considering it didn't show up for the tease

Fair point, I want to be hopeful. Riptor looked really behind yet she came out pretty quick.
Also my next point
Mid Oct, season 2 release
Late Nov, Kan-Ra
Mid Dec, Riptor
Late Jan, Omen
You can't diminish my hope.

Kan-Ra
Thunder's was right? Although thunder himself was not shown.

Pretty badass trailer. Music is especially awesome.
Golem looks great too, except the face/mask thing. It just looks off to me. I guess I was expecting something similar to Shale from Dragon Age.

Im pretty meh on Omen still, but GOT DAM the Golem looks awesome as fuck. Dem faces.
Heh the Golems face is my favorite part of his look, opinions man.
What I like about the mask is that is uses the classical greek masks for comedy and drama and shows the golem is greek in a cool way.
Anyone notice it says 2014 for combo breakers? Crunch time indeed.
Are Golem's Mask actually his face? Could imagine that just being a detail on his body.
I like the dynamic multi-faceted construct feel he has. Part rock, part a suit of armor,part flora... Good to see the green color theme remains with him.
Do you think this is an image of him standing at full height, after he blast Orchid through the wall he summoned?
Pretty nice they snuck in some of Gargos' theme for the new music of Omen. Make this "bonus" character seem more and more worth it, eh? All the voice work in these recent trailers hopefully spells good things for our upcoming story mode.

Couple stills from the trailer..it certainly appears the mask is his 'face'.

Actually even better! In another post there, Adam confirms he has 3 faces.
It's always cool when non-human creatures have some details that couldn't exist in a normal creature. I wonder if he'll use those faces as part of a gimmick, or if it'll just end up as a cool detail?
It'd also be nice if he's like Spinal, in that his collapsing animation is more of a "breaking apart" rather than a simple fall on the ground.

UC has an obsession with 'stance' characters.
Anyway, I really do love the mask on the golem, the fact that it has three faces is awesome. It's height is what has me the most intrigued. I need to know it's height!

People on Ultra-Combo doing work.
Also I don't think it is a stance character. Isgreen said Golem was one of the simpler character.

Probably a way to tell the story that the character of Omen has been inside of Jago ever since the first Killer Instinct?

I like Omen's accesories. Especially with the red color scheme.
It's alright
I don't like how it doesn't change that much and it only fits with one or two colors.
The mask is cool.
Not shown is the shinguards accessories

It's different enough for me.
Hmm. That's actually clever when you think of it that way.
Weak trailer for me, wanted more death Metal theme focus, I was more hyped for that mini instagram theme.
Still not a fan of omen's design or playstyle, but his theme is wicked.
Broccoli looks less Rocky and Broccoli-ish than most expected, looks a bit like a jade statue and I kinda want his two faces to be like sad face happy face scene in plays, but I'm dissapointed this character has a mask after Omen who alsohas a mask, give them a real face.

Yah I only got to watch some of the matchs at the start and his Kan-Ra was great from what I saw.
I can't help but wish IG would have just went all in on Shadow Jago, keeping his current look and just filling out his moveset with the boss moves and maybe some stuff they gave Omen. Maybe he would have been completely OP though, who knows.
Agreed. Shadow Jago still feels half-finished.
I like how Omen is coming along though and the thought of getting to full 18 fighter roster(17.5?) by summer is pretty sick.

Awesome theme for Omen!
But man, the way Orchid falls in Golems section is laughably bad.
Oh and I this:

It still doesn't fill up my needs! I need to see him in gameplay. (〒︿〒
I don't see a stance type of character until Season 3.
I actually didn't notice it, till reading this. Lol. I was too into the theme.
I need to see it! I wonder if I can find a video.
One day tapedeck, one day.
I think the red looks a lot better as well, mixes well with the blue insides.
Straight to the point, from the stream last night: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q3_IdpcFqIk
Ultra within 2 matches of VS Kan Ra fights: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1yLwhT7tl34
Does he keep his shadow properties during his entire Ultra? That's actually cool. I wish there was a point during the Hyakuretskyaku that he full-on cloned himself and attacked from both sides, but this isn't bad at all for a bonus.

Thanks, it seems like he does get shadow move effects around him. Your idea sounds great.

Since his level is Shadow Jago's level, do we get that level if we get him (even if we don't have Shago)?
