We will continue to provide coverage for all things Mega Man in Teppen. Meanwhile, you can check our previous articles in case you missed any:
It's interesting to me how they changed the designs for some characters but not others. Like Iris seems updated to match the style they use for X and Zero, but Colonel doesn't seem to be?
ReplyDeleteAnyway, this game is actually really fun. Kind of a shame that X seems to be one of the weaker heroes in the game, though.
As someone who's been stubbornly maining X so far, he does have some easy counterplay to his problem matchups. Example, characters with Flight are a huge issue since his HP stacking playstyle doesn't do anything to stop the damage coming in. Get all three of those Disarm cards into your deck, they're must haves. And when facing down black decks, it's likely they have a lot of cards with some kind of revenge mechanic, in which case working to get Artifact X onto the field can help turn the tide when he comes back at like 5/7 a few seconds later. He's tricky to play but not without his counter options
DeleteZero outside of one card where he was like the Teppen X design and Colonel basically are barely redesigned same with Iris outside outside of the white parts of her limbs. The heavily shaded, lit and reflective shinny metallic textured style probably fit Colonel more naturally so he appears less effected.
DeleteThat said Iris looks wonderful in this style, the changes are sensible as does Colonel.
Why does X always have the digital halo around his head?
ReplyDeleteThat's just how they choosed to design him in this game. It does'nt look so bad (on it's own at least), but i'm not the biggest fan ot it. It worked on Cyber-elf X in the Zero serie dure to the old "Soul have halo" tropes and cyber-elf X being basically X's soul, but it feel weird on a "living" X.
DeleteDid X need a booty?
ReplyDeletethat X design is'nt so bad when the artist don't draw his limbs too thin. not saying that it's the best, of course, but it's fine. Problem is it vary rather widely from one artist to another.
ReplyDeleteThat aside, i really hope they will add more card in the future, i don't particularly care for the game itself, but i would love some more maverick bosses artworks of this quality, and maybe the inclusion of Layer, Palette, and X8 Alia. Also seem like there's no Gate card either for the time being.
