    Spider-Man is my favourite character and I prefer the OG profile pic.
    Sundance_2099 is a spin on my long term online name plus 2099 just because of Marvel 2099.
    In game name is Spider-Bloke2099 as a joke to the name Spider-Bloke that I said Peter should use as a UK Spider-Man when ASM2 was out.

    I always thought you were just a big fan of the Sundance film festival.
    Nope. Not even a reference to the Sundance Kid. I was using a bunch of aliases in the Quake 2 demo, and wanted to find one to stick to and around that time, my dad asked my mum "where's sundance?" Meaning me, when he usually called me sunshine. I liked it and adopted it. I have used variations in some games like Sgt. Sundance in COD and Mace Sundancer for Star Wars games
    Quake 2 eh? Been a long time since I've seen quake mentioned anywhere. Now I want a new quake game. How long has it been since the last one? I mean, we just got a new(amazing) Doom soooooo, it's time.

    History? Well, a long time ago in a galaxy far far away… I made Kingering my first and only name in MCOC. I turned to forums, but some bully already took my name, so I improvised a bit. Revolutionary huh?
    My PFP is Shang Chi because Shang was my first 6*, 6* r2+r3, and because I gave him r4 7*.

    My forum/ign is something that a character from Dragon Ball Z says in the translated version for my country, it has no actual meaning…

    Pfp has always been the same, guess I joined the forums by the time Steve became a playable character

    Interesting, I always thought your username was a reference to Cayde-6’s ghost from Destiny.

    So my forum name is just a shortened form of my in game name which i have had in most games i have had dating back to my x360 and ps3 days
  • FrostGiantLordFrostGiantLord Member Posts: 2,338 β˜…β˜…β˜…β˜…
    Came up with the name FrostGiantLord because I love Loki as a character, Frost Giants are really underutilized badasses, and they don't get the recognition they deserve in games. Didn't want to just me any old Frost Giant though, so I added Lord at the end (also because I think Laufey, the king of the Frost Giants is really cool, but I didn't want to take the name of an already-existing character). The profile pic is pretty self-explanatory, 'cause Iceman's basically the only ice-based character in MCOC. I've fluctuated between champs I find cool in the past, like Stryfe, Red Goblin, Abs Man on release because he was busted, and Arnim because he just looks so cool.

    I thought that's where your name came from lol. Cool. Pun intended.

    Would be nice if Laufey was added to the game.

    This idea just popped into my head for this post. No idea why....

    Who knows how these ideas get in our heads?



    πŸ€”πŸ€”πŸ€”

    My in-game/forum name comes from a story I wrote as a kid. Magrailothos was a big old dragon, and I've used the name a few times in games since.

    Forum pfp - Moon Knight because I love the character, love the animations in-game. I really hope he gets buffed sometime - I think I've done something like five rework suggestions for him (last one here)
    He better get a rework in September when Mr Knight comes out
  • DNA3000DNA3000 Member, Guardian Posts: 21,039 Guardian
    My non-explanation explanation is: my current forum handle (and in-game ID) is a combination of my old time USENET alias and the three letter initials I used to put into arcade game high scores.

    My name is an anagram of Ranger

    Thought Strider was cool in LOTR

    Late nineties competitive Counterstrike, I loved Simpsons. What better thing to hear but "**** Wiggum" being screamed out. The shame of being killed again by Clancy!

    YES, someone finally gets it. Also, Laufey is such an ice character, and there's a lot of potential around a kit that mixes Coldsnap and ice-related effects with magic (sorta like reverse Kushala). Love your name too, simple but unique. Definitely gives girlboss energy

    I have terrible handwriting so I thought I would get rid of the A, as nobody can read my writing. No matter what people would do to help my handwriting it just would not work.

    Slightly weird I guess πŸ˜‚

    My name is a play on words compared to my brother's gamertag. his is carbonatrix, and mine is krystolix (pronounced as crystal). My profile picture is because I enjoy playing my little symbiote from time to time, and I would like to have this symbiote as, not as he currently is as a one star champion, but full fledged champs as a two, three, four, five, six, and seven star. I think they have great bases for kits that could be updated and appreciated in the game.
  • DemonzfyreDemonzfyre Member Posts: 23,370 β˜…β˜…β˜…β˜…β˜…

    The name of Gamora's sword is "Godslayer", I thought that was pretty cool.

    I like CGR.

    "Like" is a strong word. You sure you didn't mean "I think he's totally awesome and one of the best that's ever been made and I've mastered every aspect of him"? Seems more subtle that way.

    Pretty well-known by now, but my old IGN was changed because my Forum handle was the same as my Twitter handle, and some....let's say unsavory people....tracked me down and blasted my info on all kinds of sources. Very invasive. So I changed them both.
    The current Forum name was made up on the spot, kind of like a play on common sense.

    Ugh. People can be such a holes sometimes
  • World EaterWorld Eater Member Posts: 3,931 β˜…β˜…β˜…β˜…β˜…
    Galactus reference and a great Bolt Thrower song.

    Crossbones pic cuz I that’s what I’ve had since the old forums.

    Yeah, I'm cool now. At the time, I felt so violated. I shared a screenshot in a giveaway on my Twitter, and someone took the time to look me up using Google, and dox me on Reddit and other places. It was a lesson in privacy for sure.

    Absolutely!! Laufey would be an interesting character. Lol thanks! πŸ‘ŠπŸΎπŸ«‘

    That would be really cool. I think too that he should have a "Deep Freeze" or an ice ability that no one is immune to. Like Torch and Dark Phoenix have Nova Flame. And should be as tall as Destroyer or Sentinel...like a giant lol. That would be really imposing and intimidating. And Loki would have a synergy with his dad.

    Inspired by Kanye's Yeezus album and the "I am a god" track. I figured I'll use a god derived name too!
    Same name in game and on the forum.

    Pfp I've liked LC for a few years since he got his first buff.
