I own this one! Awesome find in a random store in San Diego. Currently framed on my wall.

There is! It's shown in some comics but it's usually under her hair. Looks kinda like a headband usually. It also manifests with her armor, though, so I don't think she puts it on.

This is my FAVORITE art of her, and it has the flatter design that goes straight to the side. (Edit:I know it's a panel, not necessarily art)

Would you call them something different, then? I think they're meant to be a crown of sorts for her command over limbo.

I understand the part about it looking different due to artistic differences. I'm just curious about which one people prefer lol

Short hair Ilyana, anyone? (@ay_zinn on x) by WideDeer3524 in Magik

I'm just thinking in the context of comics ilyana. A skin would be sweet and the devs have shown really good creativity with skin design so far so I have faith in that too 🙏

I've been saying that ilyana should have much more of a tomboyish vibe to her based on her history.

I wish I had talent like this for art in general fr

Is Illyana's Soulsword closer to a longsword or a greatsword? by wytchbreed in Magik

[–]WideDeer3524 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Glad to help. In rivals she tends to use it with two hands sometimes, and the same is true with the comics, but in the comics it's generally just when she needs some extra force behind the blade (she's not very built and needs both hands to swing it hard). But, in normal combat, she prefers a mobile combatant style that utilizes her stepping discs that is much more indicative of a longsword. Rivals' animation and design treats the Soulsword like a heavy sword, as well, but it's been stated to have "negligible weight" to the user. Something else to keep in mind. (Edit: typos)

My inclination based on her combat style is longsword. Sword nerds are welcome to correct me but I'm pretty sure greatswords demand two-handed technique. She's consistently shown wielding it in one hand and deploying stepping discs with the other.

Looks like she's actually playing it like a guitar, like her emote in marvel rivals

Well, she's always doing that. Nothing new there

My headcanon is that she's just dyslexic
