@Rookiie I'm with you.
Who do you think he's referring to? My first guess was Superior Spider-Man and he does kind of fit in the puzzle we got a few months ago. Right here
We've just had Spider-Man 2099. Would they add another Spider-Man so soon? And what of the Eternals movie?
I knew it would arrive eventually.
Toss Sp3 and then hit defender while they're stunned and build up bleeds.
Toss a heavy before stun expires to double the bleeds.
Rinse and repeat.
Or how about literally a day after the death of chadwick boseman he made a video about how kabam needs to buff black panther now. I'd say exploiting the death of another person for quick clicks and views is done with bad intentions
How about when he intentionally peddles conspiracy theories about crystal drop rates and pulls in dozens of videos to thousands of players in an RNG based collection game where some are bound to be frustrated with bad pulls. Certainly creates unneeded negativity and is done at the very least with malicious ignorance if not intentional conspiracy promotion.
Personally I disagree with the notion that he constantly lies and is this terribly negative person. I actually like watching his gut reactions to all of the different offers that Kabam puts out practically every day. He takes a very pragmatic view and works to be as historically informative as he can be. Some days he rips Kabam for being greedy, some days he compliments them for whatever they did Sure, he makes mistakes (so does everyone else...welcome to the world of youtube) but I like his perspective. Its nice to have a counter view to Rich or any of the other youtubers I watch on occasion.
The fact he said it had already been guessed is interesting. Looking through all the responses the main guesses are Shadow King, Onslaught, 7.3 Kang, Anti-Venok and Knull. There were a few shots in the dark like Beta Ray Bill and Throg, or even Magus
However, we need to look at all the evidence in context.
We know Anti-Venom is coming. There is literally no one else that synergy partner for Mr Negative would be. I think we can assume he's the small question mark on the right-hand side of the puzzle. Anti-Venom is not the kind of character that would get a massive question mark like we have
I think it's also safe to assume the character we're looking for is that massive question mark. No character with a small question mark is getting teased for a month in advance. This is a Thanos, Apoc, Prof X level question mark. And that question mark is connected to almost every symbiote in the game.
Then we have the in-game teasers. These are where things start to get confusing. The letters are written in the language of the symbiotes. I know everyone was saying it was written in Krakoan. I believe this is a mistake. Look at Prof X's synergy icons. We can clearly see the Krakoan language to be this alphabet:
The coded messages are in Symbiote alphabet. I will die on that hill. The symbiote alphabet is this:
It is specifically the Knull alphabet. Considering the messages speak of eternal darkness, nightmares and slumber, this has to be Knull. I know Knull has no direct connection to nightmares, but he was trapped in a slumber at the heart of Klyntar. Plus we can see dark tendrils beginning to appear in the second message.
Now, it can't be Knull, Broccoli deconfirmed him right?
Well, maybe not. The specific reply chain follows someone asking whether Knull is the gift that Broccoli left us, and he said no to that. He didn't say Knull wasn't coming directly, it seems to instead imply that Knull is not his gift to us. He's also said that he wasn't dropping hints so he could have just been straight up lying
So what did Broccoli make? Well, he pointed out something he said was important. Champion designers only do a champ every 2 months, and he just did Kitty. Due to this, I am confident Broccoli actually designed a boss fight. Now he said it wasn't a 7.3 boss. Is he lying? I don't know. It's coming in October anyway.
But for the champ coming with Anti-Venom to not be Knull would blow my mind at this point
On a side note, I really enjoyed the interview. Prof did a decent job I think (as a Journalism student) although I think he cut off Broccol at a few points and it felt like he was more reading a list of questiosn rather than letting them flow naturally
