Lizardman's been on the decline since SC3. :( I liked him best when he was just Sophtia without the ovaries and a sleek lizard body, not some jurassic park reject.

To be fair, though.. we do have semi-robo Astaroths...? I dunno, never cared for that character. The bigger a male character is, the less likely it is I'll play them. xD I didn't play Nightmare or Siegfred regularly until 4. D:

I've never played male characters besides Kilik and Yun-Seong, because most of the time they are way too slow for me. I prefer the quick style to the slow/strong characters. And I've never really used Voldo because he's just... *Shudders*

He seemed liked a waste of a slot to me.

I think he was too plain as a sword and shield character (And we all know how you feel about S&S). Leave that for TWO alexandra's at a time. (O.Pyrrha and Patroklos is the best example of this, normal Pyrrha is worthless to me and is currently a waste of slot, just like Elysium/Kilik (Or Edge Master if you wanna keep gender-exclusive mimics). I want Aeon without wings/fire breath, so custom characters made on him won't look completely weird.
 
Floating weapons? I like them, but I think they're too fantastical for Soul Calibur. Z. W. E. I. and Viola already stick out like sore thumbs in relation to the rest of the cast, whose weapons and styles reflect actual real-world martial traditions, for the most part. That was what the Soul series was and always should be about. Sure, it's not Soul Calibur without a little bit of fantasy, but I'd like to see it return to the lighter levels we've seen previously.

In SCVI, in place of a robot dog, I'd rather see E. I. N. as a wolf spirit that temporarily possesses Z. W. E. I. during certain moves, lending an additional feral quality to his attacks. This way, instead of fighting a guy and his pet, you're fighting a guy with limited powers. He'll be fighting his own battles, for once. Z. W. E. I. himself could also do well with not moving so awkwardly.

If Viola is Amy, just give her back her rapier. Problem solved. I liked her better as a fencer than I did Raphael in SC4. If Viola isn't Amy, then that's fine. Let her have her crystal ball. One crazy magician character in the lineup can't be too bad.

I agree 100% (Well, there are different ways you can handle Zwei, I dont know which way would be best, but temporarily posessed Zwei reminds me too much of narutotsu)

I can see your point. The reason I came up with that was because I really don't like the idea of having a third party involved in the match. It should really Z. W. E. I. himself vs. his opponent, you know? Plus, I'd like to see Z. W. E. I. actually be a werewolf instead of just some guy with access to werewolf-related things. Being possessed by a wolf-spirit E. I. N. is one way to do that.
 
Well Cervy's weapons already float in his victory animation :P Plus floating weapons are as believable or even more so than wolf spirits.
Also as I said I prefer him just with the sword but more fleshed out. His sword grip is pretty cool and reminds me of Strider Hiryu.

Also in the case Of S&S users, I want the next game to merge Pyrrah with Nightmare and call her Nightmare. Preferably she'd get rid of the shield and use the demonic arm instead. Then we can have Pat and Sophitia Elysium (who's now a suit of armor) as the only S&S users.
Nightmare is pretty cool but I think it would make more sense story wise to make Pyrrah the new Nightmare. It's also unfair having 2 Zweihander users when we only have one staff user.
And to complete my wishes Kilik should be the next Edge Master (with his own CE).

[We need to move such discussions to another relevant thread, maybe call it Rants and Hopes].

Edge master is completely useless, make Kilik the new one. I personally want Xianghua to be new elysium with Leixia using Soul Calibur (Like her mother before her with Krita-Yuga). Or make Elysium the only mimic and do something else with Kilik, maybe get rid of Xiba (He could die in story DLC? I hope so anyways -.-). I want Pyrrha to use only Omega's moveset, or maybe a mix of normal pyrrha and Oprah's (Because I do love pyrrha's 88B much, much more than Oprahs). Have cassandra come out of Astral Chaos and give her Patroklos moveset but with more anus action. I honestly could care less about Nightmare/Siegfried. Both are different in the way they use zweihanders. Maybe you could give Nightmare a different weapon now that he's a mix of Siegfried AND Raphael (Though that doesn't show at all in his fighting style in V -_-)
 
As far as Z.W.E.I. goes. For SCVI if there is one, I hope that either a, Z.W.E.I. just gets a redesign in terms of fighting style where he transforms into a werewolf who alternates with his Zweihandler sword and wolf claws for attacks/combos... B, Zwei ditches the Wolf spirit and has a more fleshed out sword style (I like his stances <3). His clothing style is totally fine with me. Maybe it's because I am gay but I don't care, it's unique enough on it's own. Sure it's a bit flamboyant for all you macho masculine guys lol but we already have Astaroth, Nightmare, Siegfried, and Mitsurugi for that. So what's the harm with having androgynous-like characters? But yeah, that's just me.

I actually wouldn't mind seeing a character with floating weapons. I love Donovan from Darkstalkers and his is pretty fair and edgy at the same time. :)

No. What I meant is to just erase the current Nightmare, I think he is destroyed in the opening or something.
Since V is kind of a reboot they should've redone it, just like Sieg transformed when he grabbed the sword do the same with Pyrrah. Make her look like an actual demon, give her a demonic arm and call her Nightmare. Also give her more demonic moves like her CE.

Also it wouldn't make sense to just go back on the reboot. They should copy Tekken and slowly reintroduce the old characters when the time is right.
