Umbrella Dream/Nightmare Attack Thread

[Golbat]

Umbrella is slowly but surely getting more of her animations shown off, so I thought it'd be fun to make a thread where we can baselessly fearmonger speculate about what kind of attacks a little girl with a giant monster umbrella would have.

I'll start off with an easy one; Kliff j.H. Man I hate playing vs Kliff so much because of this normal, it would be awful amazing if Skullgirls had a character with an attack like this that did 1500 on CH for the best jump in combos ever.

How about a full-screen, unblockable command grab blockbuster? Hungern does a chameleon tongue shot that wraps the opponent and pulls them in for a chomp. After chewing a for a few hits, Hungern spits them out to wall bounce.

I think it'd be awesome if Hungern had a means of consuming/negating projectiles! It could tie into their Hunger Level mechanic and complement the way that Umbrella & Hungern are intended to be a less-mobile fighter.

I think it'd be cool if she borrowed a few Parasoul normals, but different. Less of an elegant fencer, more swinging wildly, maybe Hungern is pulling her along like Samson. Possible candidates: cMP, sHP, j2LK, jHP, jHK.

This. I look forward to Hungern eating up the whole Motor Brigade.

This update went under the radar for me until last night, but I saw this update for one of her blockbuster supers. I've seen some talk around that this will function like Gigantor or Aegis Reflector, and while that's probably pretty accurate I was interested if anyone had different speculative thoughts about it.
I saw that they snuck in those eye orbs at the end of the animation, but they aren't fully animated, so I wonder if this will be affected by Hungern's appetite and gain/lose properties.

Yeah I had a similar thought about it on Discord that maybe the "shield" version will only apply at certain hunger level. Would certainly make sense. On the other hand, it might also be that the super has been repurposed from the original intention, which wouldn't be uncommon at such an early stage in development.

Also in case you haven't seen it the tweet was posted a few days ago with some discussions here https://skullheart.com/threads/how-do-you-think-umbrella-will-play.11583/#post-413060

Well, not quite a Blockbuster, but...

Spoiler: Umbrella Command Grab (?)

We got some great classics coming back if the Alpha trailer's anything to go by
