Love to hear you're enjoying the melee and you're already a Magepunk fan!

What sorts of stuff would you like to see to make a Finisher feel fresher?

That's very kind of you - thank you! The team really wanted this to feel like we did Magepunk right. The variants, melee change, and execution overall has a lot of love in it.

It may not make sense to everyone but we didn't mean to miss the Vandal and Phantom the 1st and 2nd time we did the bundle. We started those pre-launch when the Guardian was a Tier 1 gun (I know, crazy!) and when we thought players would want more variety in their bundles. Magepunk also has those moving parts on it, so automatic weapons weren't the best choice initially - hence choices like the Ghost, Marshal, etc. were better although we did try to see if the Spectre and Ares worked (IMO they worked less well than the others). However, the team proved they could make the Vandal and Phantom work well this time!

Yeah someone reported this to me yesterday. I let the team know this bug too! Sorry we missed the full fix!

It's custom firing audio on the Phantom and Vandal. Check it out once it's in game and let us know what you think.

It was a bug!

We look at bug reports!

Woah, I didn't know that! What do those lines mean?

Yeeess the "Pinche radianite" line surprised me when I heard it! xD
Oh I'll have to switch the language to Spanish sometime and check that out! No idea why I never thought of trying that out before. I believe Alejandro Antonio Ruiz voices both the English and Spanish (LATAM) voice lines so the quality shouldn't differ much, but I'll have to check it out for myself and see.

Always appreciate when players want to see/hear more authentic languages in our games! I know we try our best, but always great to hear how we can improve that more. :)

I can see how adding a full sentence in another language would be more immersive, but I actually love the how much Spanish is kept in Gekko's voicelines! :) They can be hard to pick up, but some of my favorite are:

"Wachale güey, my crew is coming through."
(Watch out dude, ....)I can't remember if it's during his character select or start of game

"Sana, sana."
(Heal, heal)When he picks up one of his creatures in orb form. This is a personal favorite for me as a Mexican! lol

"Another? Órale."
(...? Alright!)When he picks up one of his creatures in orb form.

"Perdoname, Reyna"
(I'm sorry/Forgive me, ...)Can't remember where I heard this, but I know I've heard him say this

Agreed! It helps keep the vibe of the game positive. :) I always appreciate when I see players typing that, from either team. Like we can still be competitive in this game and be chill with one another. In a team of 5, there is always going to be a top/bottom frag and that person can be you, so lets just do our best and have fun.

For those players that type 'nt' or any positive message, especially after a tough sweaty round, thanks for contributing to the community. <3

A Spectrum skin without the music!? D: You are so brave.

Thanks so much for sharing! Makes me really happy to know you had such an awesome experience.

"DOMINATING!" I wish I could say I've heard this voiceline personally. :,)

Happy to read that you love the RES OP Skin! :D I also have this variant of the OP but have yet to try it out yet ^^;

You should eventually get unlocked from the tournament. Did the bracket eventually update or did you get caught in some weird state? What's your riot id, I wanna take a look at your tournament and see if anything weird happened.

Hey all, we're aware and looking into it. Hang tight.

Apologies, we'll do better next time

sorry you dont like it. im sure we'll release something in the future that'll be more your style

I'm also a 90s kid! :D Thank you for the kind words!

Sorry to hear you love it but are disappointed by the appearance. I hope when you see it in game, you love it as much as we do and appreciate the design choices down to the smallest details (there are SO MANY little details in these that you'll uncover -- like the Operator "powering down/up" by turning red when you inspect, kinda like a console glitching out).

Like other folks in the thread have pointed out: 1. the guns are an homage to old-school gaming consoles (melee is like a controller) 2. the simpler gun model lets the insane visual effects that move across the weapon during idle and react on reload/equip/inspect come to life instead of looking really busy (imagine if we had pixelated effects on the dragon skins -- it would be really messy and visually unappealing).

The little screen on the back also reacts to everything you do - firing, ADS firing, equipping, and reloading. It's unique for each of the different themes too (Knockout, Bazooka, and Dance).
