Kilik will need a new weapon since Xiba is now the staff user. Perhaps, a scythe?

Fucking. Retarded. Why not just keep Kilik using his staff and create a new scythe user if they didn't like Zasalamel?

i don't know why but i got this vibe that viola was amy when i saw her.

That's the general consensus.

Now let me ruin your day by revealing that 2 of the last characters are like Edge Master, only with a limited pool of movesets (all the male and all the female)

And alpha Phyrra is supposed to have Sophitia's moveset or something. (I thought one of the new greek ones was a Sophitia already???)

Today

Dunno how accurate this is, but if it's true I expect a loooot of crying.

Is Evil Ryu and the umbrella supposed to represent the alt Patraklos or something?

I suppose so.
Having 3 mimic characters AND a random selection slot would be totally embarrassing.

I hope the remaining styles at least make into customisation. I'll need to remake Setsuka and Zasalamel, they were my favourite characters.

Won't be surprised if the old characters that got axed are released as DLC at some point.
For a Setsuka character you could use α Patroklos' style. He should have an umbrella as a joke weapon.

Yeah, I'll wait to see if that happens. I'll get the game at some point though.

no mention of unlocking characters in game?

In the beginning of this video you can see that almost the entire bottom row is empty (and Patsuka's slot has !, which confirms that he had just been unlocked; I don't know about Edgemaster).

What a slutty angel.

Oh christ.

Alpha Patroklos (Setsuka style)
Evil Pyrrha (Sophitia style)
"Malfested" Kilik (Male mimic style, including from characters not in SC5; Zasalamel, Apprentice, Vader, Rock, Yun-Seung, Devil Jin style etc)
"Final Boss" Sophitia (Female mimic style, including from characters not in SC5; Talim, etc)

Those are the remaining characters.

As long as all those styles are available individually for custom characters I'm fine with it.

God damn it that's a terrible idea. Having mimics that only mimic the styles of one gender, and mimic styles not even in the game. Those styles better be available for custom characters for it to make any sense. Oh wait, but even then it wouldn't make sense because those aren't gender exclusive. Well, they better not be.

It's just a way of keeping the styles they couldn't think up new characters for/didn't want to keep the old characters for. Why they couldn't keep the old characters as bonus characters I don't know. Everyone is just going to remake them anyway, especially Talim.

The clothes of created characters still break too easily. Get ready for... Strip Calibur V.

Fighting games and there DLC this gen is freaking embarassing. I doubt i'm going to touch any of the 'serious' fighters this gen after this point.

Tekken 6 had no DLC apart from a couple pre-order custom items. We'll see if Tag 2 can keep that up.

I wouldn't call SC a serious fighter when the majority of its fanbase basically plays it for the boobs, its story or the CaS mode.
Personally I won't even bother with the DLC stuff unless they include Yun (my old main) as a bonus character. Never cared for Talim, Rock or any of the other characters that disappeared.

The only game no one considers a 'serious' fighter is Dead or Alive. Even if SC isn't taken that seriously if you called it casual people would be irate.

Either way DLC characters in fighting games is the biggest BS i've seen this gen seeing as they are a significant portion of the game and at the same time, they cost a stupid amount when compared to the price fo the actual game.

Yeah, that's annoying.
But I'.m absolutely fine with this game's 25 + 1 (Devil Jin) unique movesets. The only styles that we are missing are Talim, Yun and Zasalamel's and the truth is that they were bad. We also don't know if they're actually planning to release characters for DLC.

Putting though 3 mimics in the game was a pretty dumb decision.
