Are you tataki or is that just a stolen Avatar?
While looking on google for a good Guilty Gear Avatar, I found this one. I didn't think it belonged to anybody.

Edit: I guess I'll change it because I don't want to be mistaken for someone I'm not.

So, how about on the last Salty Cupcakes, Mariel said she would be willing to do an Eliza audition?
 
:eek:
 
I don't mind technical characters, but I wouldn't recommend to Squigly to beginner players with the way she turned out to be. Does anyone think Eliza might be a technical character? I haven't tried playing as A.B.A. from Guilty Gear, but I heard she is a difficult character to pick up and play and was also mentioned as one of Eliza's influences. IIRC Eliza may have 2 different forms.

IIRC Eliza may have 2 different forms.

Assuming they stick with the plan, she has a form where she's wielding her microphone/poleaxe (not sure why people call it a scythe) which is slow and powerful, and one where she anchors herself and lets Sekhmet out of her body to fight, which is fast.

She's likely to be pretty advanced and technical as a result - I never played A.B.A., but stance characters in general are complicated, and stance characters with resources are likely to be moreso. Squigly is probably going to feel easier to pick up than Eliza will, is my guess, but Eliza should be very cool despite the potential execution barrier.

Of course, being complicated isn't too surprising if you believe the rumor she was originally going to be the boss of the sequel. :p

Eliza was my favorite out of everyone in the character vote, so I'm thrilled that she'll be in. We've already got a general idea of how the blood mechanic is going to work, so now I'm more interested in seeing how Sehkmet works exactly.

Wow those blood mechanics look awesome! Before I got Skullgirls on Steam I had already decided on Squigly, Fortune, and Eliza as my team purely based on how they looked and what I had seen of their gameplay. Squigly and Fortune are wonderful and I'm keeping them, hope Eliza turns out as cool as she looks. That demo looks promising.
 
Not enough people post in this thread. I'm personally really excited for Eliza since Sehkmet sounds like it might work in a similar way to Remote Stands in the old JoJo fighter, but then again it's not mentioned in her inspirations so I may just be looking for things that aren't there. Either way she looks kickin' rad.
Has there been any more news on Mariel auditioning or is it not likely to happen until Big Band is done?

I see her fighting style as being a mixture between A.B.A from Guilty Gear and Jedah from Darkstalkers, but one thing I don't like is that one time on the stream Mike said they MAY have to change her Blood mechanics into sand. I really hope that's not the case because the reason, I liked Eliza so much is because the BLOOD mechanics sounded really cool, I just hope they stick with it being blood.

Also I wanna say they'll wait to tell us her VA after Big Band, but I could be wrong.

You had me at A.B.A.

I am really excited for her. She will be my second, until then I'm going to solo it up.
 
Here is some awesome Eliza artwork by Alex back when Evo was going on.

Jedah from Darkstalkers is such an awesome design, and ABA is cool too! Why would they change blood into sand? We already got Fortune self decapitating herself and spilling blood all over the place. Sand would suck.

Because the game is rated T and they didn't know if they should stay with blood because they didn't want it to be to bloody. I believe they will stick with blood though because it's cartoonish blood and not over the top realistic blood like this.....

Yeah I think cartoonish blood is fine, again we see a ton of it with Fortune already.
 
If I remember correctly what Mike said once, the sticking point on whether it'd be sand or not is because for some reason self inflicted bleeding is not considered M worthy (aka Ms Fortune) unlike someone else making another person bleed, according to the ESRB. While I do think I remember seeing T rated games with blood, unless they catch a lucky break (or do some fancy wording/explanations) Lab 0 may have to make it not blood. So apparently a person with high pressure bleeding that has their muscle fibers constantly front and center on screen is Teen worthy, but bleeding from getting hit by someone is too much. Not to mention the aforementioned Jedah stars in a T game, yet he can decapitate himself as one of his moves. Unfortunately the ESRB can be weird at times, and things like this arise from it.

Anyways, I too am hoping for Eliza having an A.B.A playstyle with blood accented normals. I wonder how feasible that is though, considering that making an A.B.A playstyle would be basically like making two characters. Time will tell I guess, so we'll have to wait till Big Band is done before we start learning more about her.
 
I would need to see more of how her set ups would be before I hype myself for her otherwise honestly all I see her as is a way to make the roster bigger and make others interest in the game better due to a better roster size.
Also don't get me wrong I'm not like that cuse it's Eliza I honestly want to like her more, but nothing appealing to me just yet, I get like his with all characters until they show me something that makes me hyped about em, and for her nothing gotten me hyped for her yet. I'm certain she'll make the game better though.
 
Well u never know until u try. Before I got the game for steam, I was already set on Squigly, Painwheel, and Fortune as my team. Pain was a temp before Eliza comes. However when I tried out the characters, I didn't really enjoy painwheel's style and playing as her, so I replaced her with Parasoul. Maybe Elize won't be as kick ass as I hope, and I'll stick with Para.
 
If she has a good AA assist (preferably something drawing from Litchi Faye-Ling's DP as an inspiration), I could see myself replacing Filia with her. That blood mechanic just screams anchor material.

She's definitely the character I'm most excited about out of the whole crop of Musical Chairs newcomers, and it would be a shame if I ended up not using her after going to all the trouble of voting for her all those times.
 
I'm sure she will have some good assist. Because she has two modes, I have a feeling when she is in her Sekmet mode she will have a meter that will give you a time limit of how long you use Sekmet(kind of like A.B.A from Guilty Gear). I'm not sure if this is the final artwork of her Parasite Sekmet, but I found a pic of her.

I wonder how close she is to being started on.
BB's almost finished and I want to see her in rough action.

I could see Sekhmet mode being a temporary power-up super if they didn't want to straight lift A.B.A.'s life drain gimmick. Whatever they do, they'll have to either make sure she's in normal mode automatically when she's off the field or give an extra option to be able to choose which mode her assists will be in, because otherwise she runs the risk of being really unreliable on assist.

The last stream Alex was at he said they had begun planning moves for her. I wouldn't expect to see anything other than art concepts until next year though.
 
But when's Annie?

You know, Annie. Of the Stars. The real third DLC character.
 
No it hasn't, but Eliza has.
 
FAIR WARNING:
Step aside, heathens. I'm about to dry hump the internet so hard that whoever pulls me out will be crowned King of England. I wouldn't try it though. Just to play safe, I'd keep my distance for about 3 to 4 hours.
