[Percimon]

Deathstroke animations

 

[Wowbiggulps]

That was the best character reveal NRS has ever done

Being lacking a true main since the game release, this could be my guy

"IrishManta"

 

[NothingPersonal]

Burns the fucking ground. Walks away like a fucking boss.

 

[EMPR_MURK]

Hope his two sticks can form into his trident...

Shades of nightwing!!! NRS pls

 

[navaroNe]

Wow , black manta looks even better than I expected. Love his animations and win pose , can't wait to see some of his gear.

 

[jharris]

Am I the only one who thought his gameplay looks uninspired and quite generic? His character design and win pose are both great though.

Manta's air dash looks shitty...for now

Best win pose in the game.. My god. I mean, I stood up when i saw that and pointed at the monitor yelling at my GF to LOOK AT THIS SHIT HOLY CRAP.. To which she shook her head sadly and kept putting on her makeup..

But fuck.

He looks amazing. Im glad he didnt end up being a pure zoner like a lot of us thought. He looks like he has a TON going on, but I want to know what is and isnt gear..

Also, Im guessing his trait his the jet pack? The way it was used kinda seems like its attached to a meter of some kind?

I feel the same way. I was looking forward to the gameplay reveal but it was disappointing.

Kinda what I was thinking. Looks really slow, D2 into full combo

 

[EntropicByDesign]

Also, that throw animation is brutal AF

Do you have a link to that? Never saw it originally, and Im looking on youtube and all I see if this kind of producer-led walk through of his variations..

 

[BunLantern]

Black Manta can fly more than most of the flying characters.

 

[Tanno]

This Black Cockroach is confirmed as a counterpick for most of the zoners, and especially against Cold. I hope that his flying will be gear ability.

 

[RoboCop]

I'm sure this has been brought up, but wow, seeing so much Zod influence!

1) Zod Charge (0:37)

2) overhead rifle string (0:51)

3) advancing low-kick starter (0:58)

4) low eye-lasers (that hit multiple times on meter-burn) (1:14)

Assuming his jetpack is his trait, he seems like Zod + Hawkgirl, with a few additional things thrown in (was that a MMH teleport at 0:25?). I'm expecting a lot of the moves, like the MMH teleport and Remote Bomb, to be gear moves, though.

 

[Dankster Morgan]

Black Manta looks orgasmic

 

[LiangHuBBB]

looks sick

 

[The Slaj Jazz]

When he ended one of his strings with a headbutt and it made a metal thud...was beautiful

 

[Somea2V]

On the one hand, it does look like 95% of his moveset is recycled content.

On the other, Black Manta is the apparent love child of Predator and Zod. I am okay with this. #mybodyisready

 

[trufenix]

It just dawned on me that this guys gonna have gear. Tons and tons of gear. They all will, oh lord, what a day.

 

[RoboCop]

Is there any word on his release date, or is it still just "in September"?

You can pretty much say that about most characters in the game.
