Summoner's Choice 2025: And Then There Were Two

It comes down to this. The final round of Dark vs More Dark. The top two choices in the official DNA Darkety Dark Summoner's Choice metric: Mr. Knight and The Shroud, have made it into the finals, as expected. And now it comes down to which champion takes the Black Crown and slips into the shadows of the Contest.

And so we have:



Mr. Knight is an alter ego of an alter ego of an alter ego of an alter ego. That's pretty dark, or at least weird. Up to now, he's been knocking off his competition by basically being Moon Knight. When you consider he dresses in all white and represents a giant glowing object in the sky, the fact that he's still scoring very high in darkety dark points tells you a lot about Moon Knight. But will that be enough to win the Darkety Prize in 2025? Well let's look at his final round competition:



First off, his name literally means "in darkness." Point. He channels something called "the darkforce." Point. He fights the criminal underworld. Point. His description says "The Shroud leaves his opponents completely in the dark." Boo, but point.

I think the result seems clear. The Shroud has maximum darkety points. He looks like Shathra's homecoming date. He's the exact opposite of this:



The Summoner's Choice 2025 Darkety Dark prediction metric says: The Shroud wins this one. But Kabam will probably slip Mr. Knight into the game sometime in the not too distant future, because he's weird, the designers are weird, the writers are very weird, and it is just too good of an opportunity for them to pass on.

    Is it too late to write in Marvel Rivals Sue Storm?

    I know it’s just pixels… but those hips don’t lie.

    One of the things we used to discuss often back in the day is the degree to which character design for MMOs and third person shooters was strongly influenced by the fact that a) most game players are adolescent males and b) 99% of the time you're looking at your own character from behind.
    I'm pretty convinced most successful MMO games has character models (like mcoc) that are either extremely conventionally attractive female characters or conventionally "masculine" Male characters, just to cater the teen male playerbase.

    In this case it seems like the target might be option b
