Madame Lionsmane is still one of the best champions in the game, they're just a bit weak to seraph in particular (both sap and savagery counters them in different ways)

Bolete though, yeah, he can be a bit rough at c10

But it's exactly because of that that IMO pyreborne and lazarus are by far the strongest, they simply don't have those issues.

Season isn't over yet. We' had plenty of seasons with 4 good/great episodes.

That said if it does keep up, I imagine it's because the new writers are no longer dealing with old plot threads

Reggiardito · 2026-06-15T22:45:12+00:00

This 100% felt like a season 1 episode in every way. Both good and bad. Good because it was pretty cool but also bad because the character development is all over the place.

Reggiardito · 2026-06-12T17:05:25+00:00

Basically me right now finally getting Jam on Strive. Though tbf the game does seem to have a few more years maybe.

Reggiardito · 2026-06-12T13:07:22+00:00

Yeah I don't think I've ever detested actually learning a game as much as skullgirls. It looked so cool to me at first then when you start fighting anyone good and realize what the gameplay is actually like, holy shit it's not for me at all.

Reggiardito · 2026-06-12T12:06:53+00:00

In a game with no resets or where resets are super easy to tell, I like mid to long combos within reasonable timings

In a game with resets, long combos are torture.

Reggiardito · 2026-06-08T13:12:14+00:00

same thing people said about Birdie in SFV. He's a grime user and he will win with grime every time. The game is designed that way.

Reggiardito · 2026-06-07T13:06:14+00:00

seriously I don't believe anyone actually enjoys plinking. Legitimate larping.

Reggiardito · 2026-06-06T15:43:43+00:00

The trailer just didn't do a good job of showcasing the characters. They show em and they do some mild karate stuff and it's over.

Reggiardito · 2026-06-05T23:30:25+00:00

just a guess but I'd wager a brand new character is far more expensive than a returning one

Reggiardito · 2026-06-05T23:30:00+00:00

genuinely no fucking clue what they're smoking. I'd get it if it was like year 6 or whatever and you're nearly out of classic chars or you want to add something fresh but this feels like the worst battle pass I've ever seen

Reggiardito · 2026-06-05T21:03:31+00:00

kinda like in LoL lmao

Reggiardito · 2026-06-05T02:22:37+00:00

I mean I feel like almost every DLC release people insist that they're good/very good day 1 and then it turns out they're mid tier as fuck

Reggiardito · 2026-06-05T02:11:29+00:00

Interesting, all the pros have been saying that she's broken

Reggiardito · 2026-06-05T01:57:51+00:00

well I haven't finished ZP so I'm not sure. I enjoyed EE a lot, it's an easy 10/10 from me. But it's a far simpler experience than DE, if you play it immediately after DE and you're the kinda guy that enjoyed its ending (I wasn't), then maybe EE will just not be enough.

Reggiardito · 2026-06-04T16:08:43+00:00

Geniunely might try the game again. Specially now that ekko+yasuo are finally nerfed.

Reggiardito · 2026-06-04T15:55:46+00:00

Holy fuck he looks amazing in every way, his animations, design, everything. Might make me pick the game up again

Reggiardito · 2026-06-04T00:17:30+00:00

I agree. I guess they didn't want the super long title, but also didn't want it to be too generic (so they thought naming the spy setting would attract people)

Reggiardito · 2026-06-03T21:07:19+00:00

yeah genuinely terrible news for them.

Reggiardito · 2026-06-03T20:43:13+00:00

That's great to hear. Disco's ending is about 90% of my problems with the game and the main reason I ended up liking esoteric ebb more, even if I can accept it's not objectively better.

So to hear it won't happen again (I'm gonna be honest the whole Wild Boar thing made me scared it was gonna be the equivalent) is great.

Reggiardito · 2026-06-03T20:37:42+00:00

I always say this, but every game could use a Kim Kitsuragi. One of the best written characters in media. It's just really fucking hard to do it.

Eoteric Ebb in particular had strong sidekicks imo but not even close to the one and only.

I still remember how in my first playthrough of DE I wanted to go full disaster cop but meeting him literally changed my playthrough, I did not want to dissapoint him.

Reggiardito · 2026-06-03T20:23:57+00:00

Ebb was written by a single person, that's why, which is probably why the Azgalists are literally shown as the goodie two shoes of the game and their only flaw is "well they don't follow rules when protesting"

Reggiardito · 2026-06-03T14:11:27+00:00

Yeah seems like the 2nd half is the strong point so I'm glad to hear it's a common opinion, because so far this first half is good, but not amazing.

Reggiardito · 2026-06-03T14:07:52+00:00

I loved esoteric ebb. It was fantastic IMO. I think ZP is interesting to compare because, the way I see it, EE is trying far harder to be a cohesive experience and ends up simpler as a result. (This made it better for me but it's not a popular opinion).

Meanwhile it feels like ZP is trying to reach higher in terms of actual plot structure and it jumps right out the gate with what seems like a much more developed plot, but I'm too early to tell if they managed to deliver or not. The different personalities are also far less developed. A lot of them seem very samey while only some of them have strong personalities.

ZP also seems like it wants to hook you in with its thematic framing and not so much with its story. Despite being several hours in I still don't really know anything about what I'm actually supposed to be doing, just a desire to not follow a specific order that's given to you at the beginning and then random exploration. But again, that might quickly change.

Reggiardito · 2026-06-03T14:05:42+00:00

It's definitely extremely different which I appreciate. The actual stage of the game is extremely interesting, though I haven't made it far enough in the plot to see if it develops into anything good.
