Relius Speculation

lycraduckzrule · **Posted:** Wed Jul 27, 2011 11:11 pm

there should be some defining differences between relius and carl
so i will put forward my random ideas/thoughts/speculations

-Ignis is not constant on screen, she has to be summoned in, the "Ignis gauge" is a timer like Valk's wolf gauge.
-Relius is far stronger than carl physically, and will have more normals and self sufficient combo's.
-Ignis will be faster and be able to teleport behind/infront of the opponent for powerful attacks, instead of teleporting to relius' side when summoned
-Relius' "robotic" arm will be his other main way of dealing high damage, transforming into various things.

i also reckon he will have 1 robotic arm distortion; 1 Ignis distortion; and his astral will combine the two; im going to guess he grabs or traps the opponent with his arm, and then summons Ignis to do....whatever (i like the idea of lazer eyes)

Also she's on her tip toes, perhaps Ignis likes ballet?

I'm gonna roll with this and assume a lot of Ignis' movements will be heavily dance inspired, I think it'd fit quite well (a dancer and a lover of Opera, and a son who loves Violin/music).

Alot of Carl's initial artwork had him controlling Nirvana with a harp or Keyboard.

This would kinda make sense if Nirvana wasn't so plundering and derp.

i think Ignis will be on screen full time, but will have a different means of mobility

Some dustloop thing said "Upon some translation of the text in the article, it states that Relius' fighting style is controlling a doll in the same way as Carl."
Which gave me a sad

BUT STILL, IT'S RELIUS

Just because they control the same, doesn't mean they'll be the same.

The moves we have seen from Relius don't look similar to Carl's moves anyway.

I guarantee having the same drive and teleport move is going to be the only simularities.

And from that translation, Ignis must control like Nirvana if they compared it to Carl.

Shame, I always liked the idea of Relius never/rarely having Ignis on the field and only using her in distortions and the like.

Yeah, it doesn't mean they will be the same.
But still, I hoped she would appear only for certain attacks like a boss.

why are you guys worried? just look at Lambda and Mu

Kinda defeats the purpose of having her in the first place though.

If you just summon her for attacks, then it just ends up being like MVC and you don't have any real control over her, isn't the point of the style the Clovers have brought is to double team people, if you just summon her, she won't be as effective as she would if you could just control her and move her around yourself.

Don't understand the appeal of this summoning gimmick you guys keep mentioning if I'm honest, that'd actually kill my hype abit, Relius and Ignis look like a deadly pair and I want to control both of them freely otherwise what's the point?
