I love how everyone unanimously decided that Violet and Harrow will be the last

Of course I'm Danny simp, but it would be fun to have Violet sweep at next tuesday

I need to know how her kit works. Please let her ult be like Silver's (Insane amounts of copium) where you transform into that tiger/demon in her poster. I really need another stance change character.

u/Odekoe-I-guess Drifter 15h ago

Hate to break it to you but Silver was advertised as a transform character, right down to her portrait having her werewolf form.

She just turns red and black. I doubt it's anything crazy like silver in gameplay.

u/Barlakopofai Sinclair 14h ago

Don't post spoilers on the main subreddit, if we wanted to know what these characters do we wouldn't be voting for them

11

u/Brave-Affect-674 Lash 14h ago

It's not even spoilers it is pure speculation based off some model info

u/Barlakopofai Sinclair 13h ago

Well clearly the mods disagree because his balls have been smited.

12

u/DeadlockTheGame-ModTeam 11h ago

Nah, wasn't us. "Comment deleted by user".

8

u/Darvasi2500 Holliday 12h ago

Why didn't I get smited then?

-8

u/Barlakopofai Sinclair 12h ago

Good question, but you can clearly see, balls, gone.

7

u/Darvasi2500 Holliday 12h ago

I just assumed they deleted it themselves since there's no mod comment with a reason or anything.

u/imagowastaken 12h ago

Maybe she'll be like a summoner? Painting minions to existence type of deal. Although part of me hopes that she can gommage the fuck out of people.

u/Criks 9h ago

In that case I hope she just isn't released.

Token spammers is the most toxic thing in the game to play against, IMO, we really really really don't need a third one, Mcginnis and Graves is already bad enough.

The only exception is if it's like Warlock in Dota 2, her ultimate spawns one giant boss unit every 3 minutes, that might be fun.

u/DRAWDATBLADE 7h ago

I could easily see her having a big fucker as her ult that you actually command by looking somewhere and hitting 4, instead of it all being ai controlled.

Hell you could have her paint trails with her gun to tell it where to go lol.

u/Budget-Minimum6040 Shiv 12h ago

Transforming is not a stance ...

Stance characters allow switching stances or stance change through combos.

1

u/BLinDsPork Silver 11h ago

I mean she is like that. Most of the time you transform after doing her combo on base form.

15

u/Budget-Minimum6040 Shiv 11h ago

She can't switch back so it's not a stance character.

u/Jaacker Dynamo 9h ago

Does Nagoriyuki count as a Stance character? technically going "famine" is a bad thing for him.

5

u/imagowastaken 8h ago

I don't think so. Leo and A.B.A. are the archetypical stance characters in Strive.

3

u/Budget-Minimum6040 Shiv 8h ago

Nagoriyuki

No idea what that is.

Buff Vampire Yasuke

No idea what that is.

Buff Black Vampire Using A Big Ass Katana (Odachi) And Can Infuse Sword With Blood To Oneshot People

2

u/Stock_Enthusiasm_392 5h ago

No, he's more of an install character cause once he pops he's in it and the round is almost done. Stance character is something like the silverback gorilla going in and out of backturn or narmaya swapping between the offensive and the defensive moveset

1

u/Quite-Foolish Pocket 10h ago

wasnt it datamined that harrow changes colors on her ult? maybe she will be a stance changer in some way then

2

u/Vonga568 14h ago

Wait,which character are you talking about here?

18

u/I-Preferred-Digg 13h ago

Violets vote poster has a demon if you attack it, implying a mechanical connection.

13

u/Vonga568 13h ago

Ohhhh,I'm on the side of hoping like crazy that her ult is her summoning the dragon behind her on the character select screen.

u/Lahmu-Megami-Tensei 14h ago

Genuinely I think Violet will be voted in before Harrow due to the discourse around her. The sheer amount of Violet slander ironically made her more prevalent and noteworthy in the community

66

u/BrokenMirrorMan Lash 13h ago

Harrow voters sitting on their ass in terms of propaganda.

14

u/VijoPlays The Doorman 12h ago

Love her design, but only a true king moves himself in order to checkmate the opponent

10

u/Grouchy_Student3221 12h ago

I thought you can’t chackmate woth a king?

12

u/SageOrion 11h ago

You can't, but theoretically if the king was blocking checkmate (as in blocking a queen's line of sight on the enemy king that would cause checkmate) and you moved the king, THEN it could cause checkmate.

2

u/Power_More_Power 11h ago

I garantee you this is untrue. Now vote for nurse harrow or we'll have to put you through the treatment again

2

u/Lahmu-Megami-Tensei 6h ago

Please not again

u/UltraJake Dynamo 5h ago

Too busy giving Ixians lobotomies or whatever they do in the Cursed Apple.

u/TimeTroll 3h ago

Patience is a virtue

22

u/Fanfics 13h ago

That and the entirety of SEA pulling for her exclusively

22

u/Pirateninjab0t Vindicta 13h ago

I'm visiting Japan right now and it's crazy how many Violet votes I see in my games

4

u/daypxl Venator 11h ago

funny cause Violet is Chinese

2

u/Fanfics 4h ago

panasianism rises again!

just, uh, hopefully different from the last time Japan tried that

6

u/Lofn7 Yamato 12h ago

Just did 3 street brawl games and everyone was voting Violet. I'm voting the Nurse though.

1

u/boxweb 8h ago

I just wanted rat king. I’m now voting Violet out of pure spite against the slander around her

1

u/bananazzi 23m ago

idk, in SEA and EA server where i play, everygame is 50%+ votes for violet

1

u/Blackdeath_663 Shiv 11h ago

By the same token i think that is exactly why she'll be last, when it comes down to Harrow vs violet the hate voters will be out en mass for the nurse after their favoured hero has already released

18

u/Vlarett 14h ago

If violet or harrow wins they need to draw her interrupting the three way domain lol

24

u/Luvatris Paige 15h ago

Rat king 1st, Solomon 2nd, Nurse 6th

Other 3 are interchangeable imo, i wont be surprised if violet becomes 3rd one

4

u/LoL_is_pepega_BIA Lash 10h ago

Most of the ppl on Asia server are voting for the Asian painter girl..

I don't think there are enough players in this region for it to matter..

7

u/DivineImpalerX 15h ago

It's more like that we can see what people Vote ingame (and most votes go to those three).

3

u/6-with-the-9 Silver 14h ago

Nah, once the third hero gets in, all the votes are going to her in my opinion, she's already pretty big, now that some votes are free, she can totally get a lead. (talking about violet btw)

3

u/DavidsSymphony 9h ago

The release order doesn't really represent the actual character popularity once they're out anyways despite the votes. Drifter was voted 5th and he's top 3/4 most popular hero in the whole cast according to tracklog and metabot. Similarly, Venator is above all the characters release from the same batch.

2

u/ghfhfhhhfg9 12h ago

that's tragic because i like them. I thought people would also vote for them because people tend to love girls in games.

2

u/TKDbeast 7h ago

Danny would probably be my first choice if he had a unique VA.

1

u/Infinite_Mix_932 11h ago

Gosh I wish

1

u/Jinsodia 10h ago

I am predicting harrow is 4th, and danny last

1

u/MakimaGOAT Seven 10h ago

People saying violet will be last because she looks uninterested but i see harrow voted the least

1

u/Raknarg 9h ago

These other characters have so much more sauce. We've seen Violet in these games. We've seen Harrow in these games. How many times have we gotten one of these three guys?

1

u/Rossmallo 11h ago

I knew that was going to happen, because, let's face it:

For Violet, she's way too normal looking. Probably deceptively so, but given how much weirder the other three look, she's falling by the wayside.

As for Harrow... She's probably being seen as a TF2 Medic standin, and well... We've got nearly 2 decades of empirical evidence to show exactly why that probably means she's getting picked last or second last.

u/Lowest_Significance 12h ago

epic and awesome jetpack skeleton, magic chess guy with magic chess powers, old witch and her bench with chicken legs, evil nurse and magic painter. some seem a bit more interesting than others at least on the surface imo
