What's new

Spoiler Thread. People officially have the game already (NO STORY SPOILERS)

Only 1 week to go and it looks like it's a reasonable time for the flood gates to be open.

The other spoiler thread was locked so I think it's a good time to make one again where people could post their spoilers.

Tournament variations (0.093-09-c2e3315a):

Cassie
  1. Digital Soldier: (Air) Bullet Barrage, Kneecappin', Flippin' Out
  2. Yaas Queen: Shoulder Charge, BLB-118 Energy Burst (2)
Interesting. Both have combo potential, but I feel like there will be more stuff to do with Yaas Queen. Digital Solider is what the dude used last night at the event.

@STB Sgt Reed @MalevolentFix @Ck AeroVoid

Thanks for that btw!

Krypt has: coins and hearts as currency, Shao Kahns hammer to smash walls, gongs that give coins and open doors, areas that are locked by amulets and gems, Shang Tsungs forge where you can forge items into artifacts, a Kronicka device to refill chests:

13872
13873

And they said so far you can't customize him.
 
Hope the functionality of some of Kabal's abilities changed since the beta since nomad spin was one of the worst specials I've seen in a FG, horizontal air buzzsaw had worse recovering than ground buzzsaw and the default air projectile, and rolling buzzsaw wasn't great either (too slow to function as a mixup and the recovery was so bad that it really didn't improve his zoning game). So if I want to use NDC (which wasn't that strong in the beta) I have to take two bad abilities that don't synergize with it and have horrendous combo potential? Who made these variations?
 
Tournament variations (0.093-09-c2e3315a):
Thanks heaps for posting but fucking hell so many of these are so shitty. Giving Skarlet blood ritual jfc why. Kotal only gets one totem? One of Kitana's variations is just mkx and the other is 2/3 Mileena, totally didn't want to try out her other new moves at all lmao, fuck me. These zero personality fixed tournament variations are a major bummer.
 
I'm with everyone else: with the exception of a couple gems, most of these variations are uninteresting, don't make sense (lack synchronicity), and are just plain ass. Here's hoping there's another launch day patch that changes things up.

P.S., Also slightly tweaked that I'm pretty sure 16bit put exactly the Kitana variation in that he wanted, while there's so obviously much less thought put into much of the cast. Not trying to be conspiracy theorist-y about it, but it does seem a tad sketch.

I will be editing this post with answers to questions asked about the tournament variations.

"Are we able to rename the tournament variations?"
There does not seem to be a way, neither in tournament mode nor in the "Kustomize" variation section.
