[Ashley Schovitz]

Hey didn't you forget about Magneto on the list?

[Hazzard]

Did Void let you temporarily take over or something?

[McLovin']

Yay Melfice.

[Azure Chrysanthemum]

Uhh... Mercen-X... why did you repost and compile all that? I appreciate that you want to help, but I've got a running total on my own computer so you really didn't have to. Especially since voting is open until tomorrow night.

And Ashley is indeed correct, Magneto should have been in the second vote. I apologize, I am amending that now. Anybody wishing to change a vote to Magneto may do so.

[LunarWeaver]

I'm all about

-Killer
-Magneto
-Byakuya

[Azure Chrysanthemum]

So here's the deal on Killer. I can't find anything that reliably tells me how he fights. I either need to be provided with this, or he gets axed.

[Rocket Edge]

#1 - Dracula
#2 - Bellatrix Lestrange
#3 - Venom

[Dynast-Kid]

1.) Inque!
2.) Bellatrix Lestrange
3.) Kagura

[LunarWeaver]

Killer's main attacks were a thing called 20 knives, where he created a circle of knives suspended in the air and shot them at whomever he was targeting, and the fire spells of the game that just blast you with flames. Knives and fire shots are basically his thing. Sometimes he'd use status stuff to speed him up or cause Instant Death, but the latter is clearly going to be disqualified. He had a big final gross form that was like Demon Godzilla, but I can't imagine that form would be that great to use, so these are from his final human form.

I'm not sure how to explain it much beyond that. If it's not something you feel comfortable with, I say just discard him .

[Azure Chrysanthemum]

If you can find me some youtube videos I can field him, otherwise I'm just going to end up dropping him. Final form is nice too, I play them to their peak potential.

[LunarWeaver]

Man, I looked on Google, YouTube, fansites, Blue Laguna, Sebastian's house from The Neverending Story, and I couldn't find any videos of the guy. I guess he'll need the big chop. Unless somebody else can magick up some, anyway.

[Azure Chrysanthemum]

Well, I'm just going to post this now.
