    The mystery synergy is with Caroline Dean.

    For one of them maybe but not both.

    I would love wolfsbane but given what it's based on it's most likely a vampire. I would guess either Dracula, Deacon frost or bloodstorm
  • XlebXleb Member Posts: 884 ★★★
    Mystique (oh no this will never happen) and Dracula

    This is the first time I've genuinely been convinced that they could legitimately be teasing her. I still don't know how likely it is but nothing has ever actually indicated her like this

    I couldn't agree more. I still hope she is our August mutant.

    The name of the synergy "Canine Teeth..." Is a lyric from Chappel Roan's song Red Wine Supernova, which talk about a lesbian relationship... Although it's weird having Morbius in it, I would say Wolfsbane is a pretty good guess since she's also part of the lgbt community

    Dracula please

    It's a reference to a comic issue where karolina Dean was bitten by a vampire. The Chappel reference is probably just a little tie in.

    Also as much as I fully believe that wolfsbane and Dani are clearly in love with one another, she's only actually been presented explicitly as queer in the new mutants film, it's possible that they would identify her as queer given the way her character has been written but I'm still hesitant to say that they would specifically include her in a pride synergy

    So.... The synergy is a d-list character with no actual relevance...?

    This Karolina synergy has something to do with incinerate, so we could start looking at that as well

    What do you mean relevance? This game is about focusing on and exploring all aspects of the marvel comic universe, from the a list down to the obscure. They've clearly started using October as a spooky month so adding a vampire character is hardly irrelevant

    Rahne is hardly irrelevant. She’s an original New Mutant and despite the weak effort in the New Mutants movie, she’s been around for a long time.

    Most of her relationships or crushes I can recall were with mutant males (Cypher, Cannonball, Havok, wolf god in Asgard) so she may not be the correct champ here.

    It's more of a reference within a reference, on the one hand the name is a reference to her song, but on the other hand, have you ever thought about why exactly Karolina Dean has such synergy? That's why:


    This is a reference to Runaways issue 10, when the vampire Topher first attacked Nico and then Karolina, but after biting the second one CANINE TEETH IN THE SIDE OF her NECK, he exploded from solar energy, because there is solar energy in her blood

    I literally never said that rahne was irrelevant? Rahne is one of my top 5 marvel characters of all time and I've read a hell of a lot of her runs, I wasn't the person that was arguing about relevance but I would never call her irrelevant.

    I do think she could fit in the pride synergy given that her and dani are all but together and we're presented as such in the film.

    I was arguing that the idea that a vampire wouldn't be relevant was dumb

    I kinda hate Wolfsbane - of all the New Mutants and Generation X and Academy X, she's at the very bottom. But I'll always take more X-Men.

    You know who would be cool though? Bloodstorm.

    How are you gonna pull a 180 and suddenly act like you didn't just say bloodstorm was an irrelevant champion?

    I would also argue that rahne is like the most complex character in new mutants. Her level of religious guilt is something that has consistently given her character a lot of depth. I love most of the new mutants to death but a lot of them are pretty basic characters without a lot of depth and rely on their personalities whereas rahne dealing with her upbringing is something that should be focused on way way more

    Wolfsbane is like 50x better than Skin from Generation X or Maggot...

    I'm talking about Topher. He's a nobody, literally any other Vampire would be better than him

    Rahne is a complex *character* and I like her in the comics (most recently enjoy what Hickman and Ayala did with her during Krakoa) but I'm talking about how boring they'd be to play in a fighting game like this. The majority of the rest of the team are more visually interesting.

    What? Who are you talking about as someone who "not going to join the game whatsoever"? If you mean Topher, then it is rather a mention of the situation as a whole. But I'm pretty sure that the name of the synergy in relation to Karolina refers to exactly this (and the synergy bonuses increases its incineration, which kind of doubles the hint that we are talking about vampires suffering from its solar energy)

    Magik had been in the comics prior to the new mutants run, that's the distinction I'm making.

    You literally called her irrelevant in the first comment you made in response to me? If you weren't you made it very very unclear as to what you were trying to say

    I mean bloodstorm is literally just storm, I don't think in this game a new version of storm would be that bizarre of an inclusion.

    Eh, I think there's plenty you can do with her to make her interesting. Depending on what tech they have available she could shift between her 3 forms and it's not like they'd be unable to come up with cool ways to make her unique
