I just figured it out.

The Joker in the Kombat Pack isn't actually the real Joker, but Takeda who was turned into a Joker.

honestly that would be a pretty cool twist on a guest character lol

Naming my joker variation "$20 Cosplay", my Sindel variation "Have a Kiki", my Terminator variation "Boomer Prime", and I don't know what to name Spawn.

Joker has pop-culture appeal. For example, my girlfriend would be hard-pressed to tell me who Bane was if I didn't also mention that he's the big dude Tom Hardy played in Dark Knight Rises. While she knows exactly who the gently caress Joker is.

I wish.

Look, I'm not saying there weren't potentially better DC choices than Joker. It's just that everyone knows Joker so I understand the decision to go with him.

so what's everyone's favourite brutality other than chop chop

Jade’s forward-throw one where she embeds her staff in the opponent’s eyesocket.

Also the one where she vaults onto the opponent’s shoulders and then brutally shanks the everloving poo poo out of their head and face, including once in each eye for good measure.

I like D'Vorah's back throw, which is basically Chop Chop except she flings their corpse aside at the end

D'Vorah has a LOT of really good brutalities

I'm also partial to his grab one where he just jams them down on his hat until they burst.

And then turns to the camera, coated in gore, and goes "CLEARLY I'm better."

So Ash was definitely moved in favor of a half-done Joker for that preview



:argh:

Joker looks lame but Terminator and Spawn make me happy as can be

Joker seriously looks like that guy from uhhh The Purge

Something about his eyes, he doesn't look REMOTELY intimidating. He's just like, smiling. He looks like a child.

I'll :toxx: myself into a Joker name/avatar if that Joker model doesn't see explicit improvements by next year because there's just no fuckin way that it's done, the rendering for his face is SO much lower quality than every character in the game

That joker looks weirdly boyish and clean cut. If you took off his makeup you could bring him to church with you.

That is honestly not a bad idea for a joker take. I am probably the only one who thinks that.

Keep bustin'
Stoked to see both Kano & Cetrion featured in Kombat League V... I was kinda burned out on KL and told myself I'd sit the next one out unless any of my mains were featured. Now I get two full cycles to chill out, and rewards for TWO of my mains when I start up again, so that's nice! I was getting pretty compulsive about the whole "5 sets a day thing," it'll be refreshing to just do some Kasual play or muck about with Towers for a while.

Getting your daily KL rewards at just five matches was helpful to me because I tend to go on tilt and stop focusing on the matchup when I’m just pounding out games in ranked.

I'm trying to see what the WORST abilities to slot in are. Surely the Nightwolf one where he throws his axe behind you and then you have to call it back is a big fuckin waste.

Kotal’s ability where he sends his light beam after you is actively worse than the standard one where he just casts it on himself.
