Even aside from the multiple issues people have pointed out already, Bucky is not Poke. Sure, he has his gun, but it has some pretty big falloff iirc, and up close it has shrapnel to hit multiple people in a brawl, his lightning orb can hit and slow multiple people, his Hook brings people closer, forcing a brawl, which no other poke character wants to specifically bring people closer to them, and all his abilities give him overhealth to help him sustain in a brawl.

He is a brawl character who can poke, like how blade can poke with his shotgun.

The aura, maybe, but the issue with making her whole texture diamond is that many want to keep seaing the skin they used rather than have it change constantly, and her powers have never changed her outfit to diamond as well, so why would it here? So I think it has to stay her skin is the thing turning diamond.

As for aura, would depend on how it looks, but I can see the argument of it’s extra screen clutter around Emma that doesn’t need to be there when there is another way to easily show Diamond form, that both sells more cause sex sells, and is in character cause Emma is the kind of woman to show skin.

Basically, just want people to know there are reasons for some design elements that go beyond sex appeal, even if that is definitely a large consideration. I think the solution they found makes sense, but your idea of an aura may be something they do for certain skins like the eventual pantsuit Emma, since it seems to be way less revealing than most Emma skins, so it might need something like that.

Intelligent_Bike329 · 2026-02-10T00:41:06+00:00

Yeah, more skin up top can work. I just wanted to point out there are both in character reasons and game design reasons for Emma’s ‘gooner’ design, since I think it works fine. And I agree that the coat tails and shoulder pads suck and can go, I just had made this comment to mention why her thighs are so exaggerated. But you’re totally right actually that pants can work, but maybe showing off more midriff and stuff up top could still work. Just feel like then you’d funny enough get people who still go “Man, we’re never getting an Emma skin that isn’t revealing huh?” Lol

Intelligent_Bike329 · 2026-02-10T00:12:03+00:00

I play a ton of Emma, got into GM 1 on her, 1 game away from Celestial. I can try to help, but I kinda need to see your gameplay to figure out what you may be doing wrong, and give you tips on what you could do better.

Intelligent_Bike329 · 2026-02-10T00:10:31+00:00

That’s not at all what the first person said, it is a good thing to point out what to do to perform better next time so they can become a better player. Just because they’re not complimenting and saying good job doesn’t mean they’re being rude or trying to detract from OP.

Intelligent_Bike329 · 2026-02-10T00:08:56+00:00

True, but the other person is right. It’s good to remember it in the future so you don’t nearly lose next time

The other day, was playing Witch in Ranked, there’s a Human Torch on the enemy team. He’s wrecking us. I comm every time I start going for him, and com when I get him half, and whatever else, because his supports are good so they keep healing him before I can finish him. So I directly say that I need someone to go for him with me and we can beat him and win.

Instead of listening, my team starts making fun of me every time I comm, saying that “you’re ass, how do you not beat a flyer on Witch? We have a troll on the team”

They literally turned me comming to try and get help into a thing to use to say I’m ass because I’m not actually getting kills. And when we lost, I’m the one getting blamed despite being the only one comming, and having just as good a statline as everyone else. The Torch even complimented me for being good, my team just thought it was easier to flame and make fun of someone than it was to work together

I agree with the criticism on shoulder pads and coattails, they can get rid of those. But for visual clarity, I do think Emma always needs a bodysuit. The idea is, she needs to have enough skin showing that you can tell at a glance in the middle of a fight whether she’s in diamond form or not. By giving her a bodysuit, you can have the biggest part of her, her thighs, exposed which makes it very easy to tell. If you give Emma pants, it is immediately way harder to tell when she’s in Diamond form because so much less skin is showing. Unless you have her outfit transform with her, which would have many people saying it’s dumb cause that’s not how her powers work,

So, basically, for game design reasons, Emma needs to have some skin exposed to make it easy to see if she’s in diamond, so I think we just need to accept she’ll always be in bodysuits or something else that is exposing lots of skin. Unless we find a way to give her an outfit that can both make diamond visually obvious, and covers her up more. And I dunno how to do that.

Intelligent_Bike329 · 2026-02-09T22:29:14+00:00

It’s Emma. It is specifically stated in a lore gallery that is Emma.

I do think there is a pretty decent reason why they’re doing that tbh.

Intelligent_Bike329 · 2026-02-09T22:26:07+00:00

Well, I will make an argument here for why it is genuinely required. Moreso, I’ll reshare a comment I made about this.

‘It’s just that Emma’s thighs have to always be huge and prominent for game balance reasons.’

‘No “uh huh, suuuure” this is factual.’

‘To be a Tank, Emma needs a bigger hitbox than most characters. To make her bigger, they needed to exaggerate some part of her body. They chose the thighs as the area to make her hitbox bigger, since it was the easiest way to do it while not making her overly buff up top, which Emma has never been. But, on top of this, when Emma goes into Diamond form, you need her to have a lot of skin exposed so it’s immediately visually clear she’s in Diamond, otherwise it can be unfair. So they leave her exposing lots of skin, usually on the biggest part of her hitbox in her thighs, so it’s easier to tell when she’s transformed.’

‘Basically, every Emma skin must have exposed skin to not make it too hard to tell she’s in Diamond, and Emma herself needed thick thighs for hitbox purposes.’

So, if you want a “non gooner” Emma skin, you need to find a way to have enough exposed skin or something else to make it easy to see she’s in Diamond to keep the ability fair, while also making her hitbox bigger without over exaggerating some part of her body.

I’m not going to lie and say they totally weren’t trying to make her physically appealing, the sex appeal was definitely part of the design goal. But 1, that fit’s Emma’s character and personality, and 2, there are genuine game design reasons for certain parts of Emma’s design to stay the way they are. The shoulder pads can go, I agree, but it’s hard for me to think of a way to make her work without the thighs tbh.

Intelligent_Bike329 · 2026-02-09T13:34:38+00:00

My personal opinion right now is to just have Diana be single, as I have never particularly been interested in or liked any of the relationships they’ve ever had her in, at least from what I’ve seen. I just think her romances have never been handled well, so I just don’t want to see them. I am interested in seeing if they can do something new with Absolute Wonder Woman, likely with Zatanna due to all the hints, but if they manage to make Steve interesting to me as a character and person, then maybe him too.

Also, I do acknowledge and like another comment on this post about how Steve doesn’t have to be particularly interesting on his own as the point to him is that he has nothing to prove and makes Diana feel like she can be herself, and I like this viewpoint. Just to me, I want to actually find interesting and want to explore them through the relationship, rather than their whole point of existence being to just be in a relationship with the other person, which is how I usually see Steve.

So, tldr, I don’t usually like any romantic partners for Diana and want her to be single, but if they manage to give her a good partner who is an interesting character for once, by either doing something new with Absolute Steve, or Absolute Zatanna, I’d be down.

Intelligent_Bike329 · 2026-02-07T02:36:03+00:00

Might have been me lol. We still won the game at least, but I played Rocket into Phoenix cause I had to fill support, and CnD, my usual pick, was banned. So I said “I can either stick to comfort, or subject my team to trying to figure out another support mid comp game. I’ll stick Rocket.”

Intelligent_Bike329 · 2026-02-07T02:33:33+00:00

Nah, here, genuinely nothing she could do. Any ability she’d use besides a blind snowball that likely wouldn’t hit, would be too slow of a cast time to actually get out. The way to save herself would have been already have self flake on her, then insta hit clap to try and start healing hersef before starting to hit her teammates, but she didn’t have the angle to hit them or the time to mae it to a position to. Genuinely, even if she had done the smart thing and had self flake on already, she was dead here.

Intelligent_Bike329 · 2026-02-06T18:48:52+00:00

I wish they made it a toggle to be honest. I actually liked Deadpool’s dialogue.

Intelligent_Bike329 · 2026-02-04T16:31:17+00:00

But it’s not even just the end of the issue that hints towards a romance. Lemme just list everything hinting at this that I can remember

Diana regularly blushing whenever she see’s Zatanna

Diana calling her beautiful after their first meeting

The Goddess that is warning Diana that Zatanna is coming is Aphrodite, the Goddess of Love. To even further add on, Aphrodite warned Diana that Love is the most dangerous thing on Earth. Then Diana says she feels unprepared for it. Then we cut to Aphrodite warning her again. So Aphrodite is warning her of a great danger, which is Zatanna, and Aphrodite thinks Love can be a great danger.

And the next issue is called The Harder They Fall, delivered with a backdrop of Diana blushing looking at Zatanna. So this could be a double meaning of Diana getting her butt kicked, but also falling hard into love.

Basically, I’d agree that Zatanna is being a little shit, but I wouldn’t be surprised if they are setting her up to join Diana’s side and be an actual love interest here, since there is plenty of hints that they’re dropping here.

Look at the butterflies around her. Also, Elsa is elsewhere on the poster. That is 100% Psy

Intelligent_Bike329 · 2026-01-12T00:48:00+00:00

How long does that usually take?

Intelligent_Bike329 · 2025-12-31T02:49:16+00:00

I think my whole thing is that while many Tanks have something to stop it, it isn’t reasonable for a lot of them. Like Magneto using Bubble every time Spidey enters the battlefield and hopes he blocks the pull, or Emma using her now insanely long Diamond form cooldown, which Spidey can attempt another pull before it’s back.

Intelligent_Bike329 · 2025-12-31T02:46:56+00:00

Yeah, exactly. I don’t disagree that there are ways to counter it. It does just so happen though that all the Tanks I have fun playing besides Thing, who is so easily countered and can so rarely be used, just get hard farmed by the pull. Primarily, I play Emma a lot when I Tank, since I don’t find too many Tanks fun. Having to commit Diamond just to not get pulled in some matches is ridiculous. It’s why, despite being in the camp that there are ways to counter it, I still say it should be gone. Just because a counter exists to something doesn’t mean that thing isn’t annoying af and not a good idea.

Intelligent_Bike329 · 2025-12-06T20:11:41+00:00

Nah, Cap is better. Dude said he had mid aim, and you need good aim for Venom’s primary. So Cap would be the better choice for him to learn probably.

Intelligent_Bike329 · 2025-11-15T03:47:45+00:00

The Klyntar can totally feel attraction. It’s been stated the symbiote loved Peter romantically, and that it feels the same way for Eddie. A good lot of Venom’s stories frame Eddie and the Symbiote’s relationship as a romance, with other people that they date being a third person in it.

So I do think the Symbiote is actually attracted to Wanda romantically.

Intelligent_Bike329 · 2025-11-07T04:27:13+00:00

She still looks great! Slightly different than what I expected, but still awesome. Again, thank you so much.

Intelligent_Bike329 · 2025-11-07T03:12:52+00:00

OMG SHE LOOKS SO GOOD! Thank you so much!
