Soulcalibur VI General Roster Speculation Thread

SoulCalibur VI: which 3 characters do you most hope for?

  • A brand new character

  • Amy

  • Cassandra

  • Hilde

  • Hwang/Yunsung and/or Lizardman

  • Rock

  • Setsuka

  • Viola

  • Z.W.E.I.

  • Other: Abyss, Algol, Dampierre, Elysium, Leixia, Li Long, Patroklos, etc.

Results are only viewable after voting.
Viola and Z.W.E.I. I don't see as impossibilities, especially as DLC characters, at the absolute minimum. Or in Viola's case, the reboot may alter Amy's history and make her have her Viola transformation / awakening much earlier and justify it somehow. There's also the possibility that Grøh and Z.W.E.I. may be related if not one in the same.
 
They didnt make anything clear about sc5 characters not returning as dlc.
Maybe not xiba,leixia,natsu but viola zwei aeon definitely arent cut yet.
 
Yeah, and just cause Grøh and ZWEI look similar does not mean they are the same, they could be related or something, so both could keep their unique styles when/if ZWEI gets retconned as DLC.

Z.W.E.I. is trash like Talim. Groh is very viable.

I wasn't exacrex talking about viability, more from a design/flavour standpoint. But yeah, zwei (if he is a dlc) will need a lot of tweaks and even a possible moveset revision to become viable. Talim needs to get a lot of tweaks to stop sucking competitively though, but that's fairly like she will be buffed cause everyone loves her, so I have a feeling we'll be seeing top tier talim at some point. X still top tier it seems though. Grøh looks pretty good too

The difference between them though, is that initially when introduced Talim was viable in SC2, I believe she was high tier, Z.W.E.I was the worst character in the game, pre-patch and post-patch (along with Dampierre and Devil Jin post-patch).

Talim will NEVER be as good Xianghua & Leixia.

Frayhua, I think a lot of the time you speak from a personal gameplay perspective even when people are talking about the characters without regard to that, lol. I don't think there's a need to do the "Talim is trash" thing every time when people are talking about her as a character, not how she plays.

Character viability is important.

It wouldn't matter what Talim tier is because her moves don't matter. If Talim was a complete character in SCV, Leixia would make ALL Talim's moves useless.

It okay. I think that he secretly luvs the Talim so much that he is in complete denial that he just decides to say how much he thinks she garbage. He probably owns a plushie of her.

To be a bit more serious she can always return with a more solid moveset and seeing what good things I heard about how fast Soul Calibur VI is I think she could go back to the way she was in II with the addition of more improvement.

Regarding the fate of the Soul Calibur V kids I feel that they are going to take a page from Fire Emblem Awakening and do time travel/alternative dimension shenanigans. From what I could make out from the first trailer I don't think that they will ignore what happened in V. This is just my guess though. I will okay with maybe Viola and Zwei returning but the others...IDK.

I'm not even talking about Leixia, besides, the Xianghua moveset was ALWAYS viable and one of the best in every game, in fact, in 3 it was especially broken, what I'm doing is comparing Talim to Z.W.E.I because you brought it up, when Talim was introduced she was viable, where Z.W.E.I unfortunately was absolutely trash, similar to how Spawn and Link were in 2, that would be what differentiates the two moveset-wise, we've already seen a case of Talim being viable in the past, but never with Z.W.E.I.

All I said was Z.W.E.I is trash & Groh is viable that's all. I just like to throw digs at Talim. I honestly don't care if Talim is viable or not.

We don't know that yet, how about we let the game release first before judging it with a tier list?

I already know Groh is viable. He isn't broken like SCIV Hilde, he isn't overpowered like Viola after Talim fans begged Project Soul to overbuff Viola because Talim was incomplete, & most importantly he isn't trash like Z.W.E.I. I also know that Xianghua is overpowered again & needs to be nerfed.
 
Tbh not the biggest talim fan, always been Mitsurugi, Taki and X, but there is no reason characters that have been bad in the past can't be good later. For all we know X could be nerfed to hell. Anyways zwei can be played well, just look at andyroo
