"Hey, I wanna give a shout-out to all my fans! Seeing all those stylin' purple shirts is what keeps me hype to dance all over these suckers! Every week, the Tasters hit the arena in droves hopin' to see my kickass moves, and for once, IGgy delivers! But I ain't done, no way. Now that I styled all over Rendar and his stupid Rob Liefeld armor, I got my sights set on Marek and Palpatine, to prove once and for all that Star Trek is by far the superior sci-fi series! And I'm hoping to be representin' Italian food at this year's International Food Challenge, but you know how it is, 'Waaaah, booking you requires thousands of dollars worth of safety measures! A bloo bloo bloo, we need to have twice as many medics on staff to handle the injuries you cause!' Like, whatever, man, book me. Peace out!"

Why, yes, I do like Kirby games.
So what defines something not being a custom finisher? Does it have to be a move that an existing wrestler already uses as a finisher, or can it simply be any single move (so not five hundred suplexes in a row)?

E: correct important goof.

Would interfering wrestlers actually get in the ring if the match was no DQ? I don't remember if that's been tried yet.

Basically, in 2K14, you can string together a set of animations into a custom move.

Have Zore "defend" the title in an elimination chamber. Conveniently (but also annoyingly) the chamber is buggies in such a way that lets you rig the entrance order.

Yeah, I know that. My question is, if I want to avoid the penalty for having a custom finisher, do I have to use (say) Big Show's WMD, or can I use a move that none of the pre-built wrestlers use as a finisher as long as it's a single move?

IGgy IGsen

"If I lose I will set myself on fire."
Uh... I'm not sure what you mean.

The only moves that count as custom finishers are the ones that are not in the game by default.
Just because a move is not a finisher of somebody doesn't mean it's a custom finisher if used as a finisher. Custom Finishers are moves stringed together using a few preset movements. Their damage is poo poo. IGgy (gently caress You And Die), Zore (Blue Balls, Orange Balls, Green Balls) Frosty (Dragon Buster) and Aurora (Aurora plex-a-tron) have custom finishers or signatures.

Oh, yeah sure. Some moves straight up do more damage than others (iirc the tombstone piledriver does the most) but near any move can be set as a finisher and it usually takes about 2 or so to put someone away.

The default finisher is a regular DDT because I guess Yukes loved Jake Roberts or something.

That's what I wanted to know. Thanks!

Okay, so here's my revised desired moveset for Walter Dee: basically Edge (unless we already have a 'basically Edge', in which case I'll rethink my choice). One signature move is doing an airplane spin (the Circus Throw); the other is a running punch, driving the arm straight forward (the Parasol Drill). Finishers are the most violent-looking running Spear you can find (simply called the Spear), the Very European Uppercut (the Skyward Thrust), and the Flying Forearm Smash 2 (the Moon Drop). If it's possible to customize pin moves, give him (to the extent the game will let you) only the gentlest seated senton you can.

: Yes! A triumphant return to the squared circle, and not only did I manage to wrestle, but I managed to get three of the six competitors out! I feel kinda bad for getting out IGgy though, since he's my boss and seems like a nice guy. Should probably lay off the booze though. But hey, that's what happens when you come against Freddie Hope when I am feeling the rush of Wrestling flowing through me, as QC found out when I threw him out of the ring! And now I'm guaranteed a match next week, and while I've never been this high up the card before, I know this: Win or lose, I am going to be having the time of my life, and I hope the other guy is too!

"If I lose I will set myself on fire."
That's why I included Fred. Really. He'd be a good face for LPFWA, Sterv is not a heel but he's too busy dropping dead animals in front of my feet in an effort to teach me to hunt. I wouldn't make a big deal out of it if it weren't entire elephants sometimes.

Oh no! Somebody has stolen all the food for the International Food Throwdown (tm) this Saturday. Please download our mobile phone app and subscribe to the LPFWA Network for only 9.99 to help us find it all again! It was a nice fellow wearing a white top hat who informed me of it, I'm sure he's trustworthy. (A match card with a link to the betsheet is gonna come but we couldn't write this thing yet due to reasons mainly related to us being more than one person with a whole ocean in between us. Also SGDQ. That's also the reason I haven't worked on new guys this week. No real excuse for last week, though.)

Live from Xizor's The Dark Prince The Evil Lord's Palace Casino, Emperor Palpatine holds a press conference on LPFWA's food theft.

I would like to begin by extending my sincerest sympathies to IGgy IGs--PHA! I can't even finish that sentence. "Sympathies!" Can you believe that poo poo, Marek?
Yes, good one, master.
Peons of the media, I have come before you to issue this statement: should he require it, I, Emperor Palpatine, Supreme Ruler of the Galactic Empire and certain parts of rural Ontario, am willing to ransom--
Offer.
What?! ...Oh, right, "offer" the vast resources of the Empire to LPFWA's moon base to replenish IGsen's woefully under-guarded food stocks for the upcoming International Food Throwdown pay per view event. ...At a cost, of course.
The Empire is most generous.
You have my number, IGsen. Call me. Now! I shall answer questions from the press despite all reasons not to. You! Woman in the front row from CNBC.
Yes, Emperor Palpatine, what do you have to say to the rumors you hired Dash Rendar to steal LPFWA's foodstocks?
...I don't know where you're going with this?
I have it on good authority that you're secretly trying to sabotage LPFWA from within.
Preposterous. What do you take me for, some kind of... kind of... insidious troll? don't answer that
But--
Say another word and I'll decanonize you again.
Mr. Palpatine, what do you say to the rumors that you're trying to restart Super-League Wrestling, an organization plagued with gross financial mismanagement, numerous safety violation citations, and the Literal Goddamn Devil?
WHO TOLD YOU THAT?!!!
My work here is done... *slips out the back door*
THIS PRESS CONFERENCE IS OVER! STARKILLER! EXECUTE THE PRESS CORP! NOW!
As you command, master.

: As most of you may know by now, the recent food theft was clearly an inside job. Seeing as there is no president of the moon, its pretty clear that the man behind this would have to be some sort of government official or in a position of great power. An emperor of the people, if you will. Furthermore, investigations, lead by yours truly, are looking into the methods used to access the underground moon food towers. An undisclosed amount of jet fuel has been located at the scene of the crime and tests are being carried out to discover their true nature.

And while we wait for the results, one thing is certain - jet fuel can melt cheese and cook a mean batch of fries.

As a representative of the frozen North, I invite Danaru to help me in resolving our food woes by creating the best dish known to man!

What's all this talk about the food being gone I don't see what the big deal is since I have been subsisting entirely on coffee and the occasional muffin - thanks rara! - for most of the past year but apparently people are really worked up about this sort of thing so I've decided to use my Divine Barista Powers which I totally have even though I've never mentioned them before because what's the point of being named DivineCoffeeBinge if you can't have Caffeine Deity Powers anyways I'm using them to give everyone a nice hot fresh cup of coffee! Cream and sugar optional of course although why you wouldn't dump in sugar so you could be buzzed on both sugar and caffeine at the same time is a mystery to me I haven't slept in four months.

It's House Blend. Sorry, I'm not handing out the Kona until I get a match.
