  We’re swiping vertically now? I might not get my first R4 after all.

  Are you supposed to swipe up while blocking? His specials root you so you might have to block too

  Just wait until they start adding shapes to swipe like pitching in MLB 2k. (I really hope I am not giving them this idea and they either have thought about it themselves or won't see this. If not, I am so very sorry to all of you.)

  All I know is that you really don’t want to say hello to his little friend.

  All I know is, whenever we do get our own playable ares, he better have that minigun

  Draw an octagon with 2 diagnols while reverse controls.

  The only meaningful swipe in this fight appears to be swiping your credit card from your wallet.

  His specials can't be blocked or evaded

  I’d say don’t give them ideas but reading this kit it seems like they’ve lost the concept of what fun is. The degen to Ares health is beyond overtuned and clearly their way of farming revives back from us.
  
  Final judgement is reserved until we get to try it but this doesn’t read like a game it reads like a grab

  Two questions from reading the kit:
  
  1. "Attacker's attack and critical damage rating locked to starting values". Does that essentially mean that things you gain during a fight (Fury buff, precision passive, prowess, etc) don't do anything? If so, seems like it'll limit longform champions like Aegon and G2099, but might allow Stryfe a chance to finally shine.
  
  2. Is there Unstoppable in his kit somewhere? I don't see it, but I do see him being immune to Slow, Halt, and Grit, so that kind of implies that there is some form of Ares unstoppable that Kabam doesn't want the player to ignore. Maybe its tied into how the special countering is coded?

  Meaning any attack increase fury kits like star lord etc wont increase they just do base attack and same with crit damage where cruelty wont increase damage

  The only way to increase damage is to die and revive. It’s not a revive sink though…

  Only damage increase is by ares giving increase attack outside that not increase so pretty much yeah not a nuke type fight just something long

  What is interesting is that this kind of makes it not matter what champion you bring in, as the focus seems to be on the Vigor.
  
  Although... what about effects that live on Ares? Things like Vulnerability and such. It seems like Trauma could still cause additional burst damage, or Debilitate could increase the special damage despite it being locked to starting value?

  The whole "cannot be interrupted" works by being unstoppable. So it would throw off the rhythm of the fight if you can interrupt. Valk can though. They forgot to account for her I guess

  Seems like his abilities are constructed so any champ can do the fight, making it more skill focused than RPG. I guess it may just come down to how hard it is to read his animations and react. Personally, if we get a fight where I can focus more on the opponent and less on the HUD / timers, I would welcome that.

  Still think there be rpg elements for the fight but it does feel more skill focus which i love
