Bill from Lost Kingdoms 2. He's not even in the game. The localisers made him up. But he adds so much life to this mechanic exposition!
The first of 2 screenshots from Lost Kingdoms 2, showing a collectable red fairy at the start of the timed Alanjeh Castle mission and the dialogue it spouts when caught. The first textbox reads: "Some of those machine thingies won't do anything unless you get really close." The second of 2 screenshots from Lost Kingdoms 2, showing a collectable red fairy at the start of the timed Alanjeh Castle mission and the dialogue it spouts when caught. Its second textbox reads: "Bill, he said they were dead, and he went right up to one, but all of a sudden it started beeping and shooting. Poor Bill..."

Had to go to Twitter for it (🤮) but here's the dev on that matter:
Screenshot of a Twitter poll run by DBK Games on the 8th of may, 2024, asking "Which feature do you want to be improved the most?". User Bosa responds "I played the beginning of the game, great concept. I'm revisiting soon. The AI voices hurt to listen to though. Are they pre-recorded AI voices or live audio in game?". To which they reply "They are pre-recorded, but these ai voices will be changed when the full version is released". Followed by an hourglass emoji.

Is that Nevinyrral's Disk?!
Nevinyrral's Disk. An extremely early Magic the Gathering card named after Larry Niven, on which Mark Tedin drew a hand half-holding an amulet, as if hurt by it and trying to let go, as it spews out tentacles from a seeiningly extradimensional fleshscape within. The card reads: Nevinyrral's Disk (4) Mono Artifact 1: Destroys all creatures, enchantments, and artifacts in play. Disk becomes tapped but can be untapped as usual. Disk destroys itself when used.

This doesn't actually affect her standard gameplay, it only prevents her from creating a mill infinite. But if I had a nickel for every time the trans character released with a ludicrous infinite I'd have 2 nickels. So it's interesting that it's happened twice.
The character card for Bridget, the trans woman from the new UniVersus Guilty Gear Strive set. As printed, she reads: Bridget 7 Handsize 21 Health (Air), (Water) Character Hunter Enhance Flip 1 card in your card pool: This attack gets +2 or -2 speed. Response [Twice per turn]: After your attack deals damage, add 1 face down card from your card pool to your momentum. Though the word "another" has now been added to prevent her from flipping and ending her current attack. The character card for Tiger, the trans man from the DLC that went alongside UniVersus' third My Hero Academia set. As printed, he reads: Tiger 5 Handsize 33 Health (All), (Order), (Water) Character Hunter Enhance: If your attack deals damage, draw 1 card. Enhance [Once per turn]: Switch this attack's speed and damage. Response [Twice per Enhance Step]: After an effect modifies the speed of your attack, that attack gets +1 damage. And, while he has since been errata'd to have the "Pro Hero" trait, he did not recieved any functional errata to prevent his infinite combo with Hardened Barrage, Award the Victor and All Might's Mentorship.

Holy crap y'all, the proper announcement for #UniVersus' #Borderlands bundle is here and this thing is $39.99 for 4 Walk the Dogs?! Considering I bought mine for £40 each, that's quadruple the value on its own and the rest of the cards aren't exactly bad looking either!

Promo shot of UniVersus' upcoming Borderlands 4 experience bundle, featuring Amon, the Forgeknight, Harlowe, the Gravitar, Rafa, the Exo-Soldier and Vex, the Siren. Along with alt arts for Walk the Dog, Paying the Cost, Resting Up and Weapon Clash. All in a fancy, 2-page collector binder.

Followed by two highly cutesy anime girls high fiving as "trans girls who tuck" and "trans girls who don't tuck".

And heck, why not use this as an excuse to show off two of their unused pieces? Two absolutely stunning character drawings that sadly never made it to video due to circumstances within the TCG.
Thumbnail for a winning Genkai 1 Life deck, highlighting her use of Demon Plants, Youko Form and Quick thinking. The character art on the right is Mx Alppy's half body rendition of the old woman, Genkai, from YuYu Hakusho, as if she were a Disney princess. Alppy's use of colour and sparkles coming through wonderfully in both her ornate, medieval dress and the Sleeping Beauty inpired overgrowth that surrounds and ensnares her. Snow White inspired birds roosting upon her and the title text in reference to the deck's other key card, Command Pidgeon Flock. Thumbnail for the Fire Woman deck I took to UniVersus nationals earlier this year, highlighting her use of A Father's Sin, Rupture Driver and Sugar Rush Power Up. The character art on the right is Tesh's full body chibi of the female nomu, from My Hero Academia, in a raging action pose, thoroughly on fire. The bone crests on the back of her head arranged to resemble Blaze, from Sonic Rush,'s hair, in reference to Crush 40's cover of the song "Fire Woman" and fans' claims that it ties to her.

There've been a lot of beauties but the best, to me, will always be @tsukimusha.bsky.social's Ikyo-e Godzilla.
The alt art version of Godzilla, King of the Monsters, from UniVersus' original Godzilla challengr deck. He is rendered from the waist up in the traditional japanese ikyo-e style, blue flames spewing from his eyes and mouh, clouding the sky behind, while orange ones and their smoke obscure his body. His hands reach through these grey clouds as he's framed by red lightning and the card reads: Godzilla, King of the Monsters 6 Handsize 34 Health (Chaos), (Earth), (Water) Character Giant, Monster Your attacks with printed difficulty 5 or greater get +3 damage. Enhance Spend 1 momentum: Your next check to play an attack or block gets +2. First Form [Once per game] Commit, discard 4 cards:Destroy all foundations. Only playable if there are 10 or more foundations in all stages combined.

Surprise non-Guilty Gear reveal today. #UniVersus has given us 2 new champ cards and it's great to see Ashley finally get hers but Mark's seems way more my kind of nonsense.
UniVersus' character card for the 2019 world champion, Ashley Fullerton. She is depicted as a grinning surgeon, looking down on the viewer and about to inject them with a syringe of mystery, green liquid. Beside her, an anthropromorphic hedgehog stands wearing scrubs that match her own and holding the tray with her tools. Her card reads: Ashley Fullerton 7 Handsize 21 Health (Air), (Death), (Water) Character Enhance [Your Attack] Commit: Build the top card of your deck face down. Your rival adds the top card of their deck to their card pool face down. Response [Tenacious] Sacrifice 1 foundation: After an attack is played, it gets +2 or -2 speed. UniVersus' character card for the 2020 world champion, Mark Tyner. He is depicted looking gruff in a brown coat at a gambling table, one hand on his chips while the other throws poker cards at the viewer. His card reads: Mark Tyner 6 Handsize 30 Health (All), (Evil), (Order) Character Unique grants your foundations "While this card is in your stage, if there are 3 or more copies of it in your stage, sacrifice 1 of them." This card cannot be sealed Response [Twice per turn] Commit 1 Unique card: After a player makes a check to play a non-foundation card, that check gets +2 or -2. Response: After your rival fails a check, gain 1 health.

This tells me everything I need to know about your transmedicalist stance and bad faith response to criticism.
Screenshot from the article showing the editor's notes at the start. It reads: Editor's Note: After initial feedback on the first published version of this article, we changed the sub header from its initial version of "Conflating the experiences of people who change their sex and people who change their outfits has been a disaster." to "There is a distinction in needs and experiences for those of us who do take steps to materially change our sex compared to those of us who do not. This distinction should be recognized rather than erased." It has since been changed back to the original subhead. At The Needle, we don't believe in censoring our reporters nor appeasing those who engage in bad-faith.

Yo we got another one, giving Potemkin even more big numbers. Like an Ending the Dream we don't have to sacrifice!
#GGST #UniVersus
A new rare Potemkin foundation from UniVersus' upcoming Guilty Gear Strive set. It reads: 2 Garuda Impact +3 Low [Earth] Foundation Unique Enhance Flip: This attack gets +2 or -2 damage. If you have played a Roman Cancel ability this turn, this attack gets +4 or -4 damage instead. 5

This is a really good card, especially with the new Tension mechanic, but I simply cannot get over the amount of man-tiddy on Ky.
#GGST #UniVersus
A new common foundation for UniVersus' upcoming Guilty Gear Strive set depicting Sol Badguy and Ky Kiske linking left arms, fists clenched. However Ky's shirt has quite the V cut going on and his right pec is really high and full and round... Anyway, the card reads: 3 Rivals in Battle +2 Mid Response [Once Per turn, tenacious]: After you gain 1 or more momentum during the Combat Phase, ready this foundation. 5

Chat, my all time favourite #UniVersus IP might actually see a sequel! It's not likely but it's possible, in a way I never thought it was, and I would LOVE to see Seventh Cross, with its stunning @wickedarucard.bsky.social art, back in the game!
The second character card of Taisei, from Seventh Cross' original UniVersus set, showing off his Dullahan form and the red smoke from his evil eye as his head laughs at your attempts to kill him. Sword still aimed at the viewer with his other hand. This card was designed as a transformation for the character and, as such, does not make much sense without his first character card but it reads: 6 Taisei +0 Mid 5 Handsize 8 Health (Death), (Life), (Order) Character This card cannot be sealed by card effects. Response Choose 1 copy of Taisei 2 in your staging area to become your starting character, then remove 1 copy of Taisei 1 from your staging area: Before you are reduced below 1 vitality, cancel that vitality loss and return to maximum vitality. This ability cannot be canceled by card effects. Playable while committed. Enhance: Your Gauge attack gets +1 damage for each copy of Taisei 1 in your removed from game pile. 6 With "vitality" being the old word for "health", "staging area" meaning the stage and Gauge being a keyword that doesn't exist outside of Retro and Legacy anymore. Umina, the Dreamer, who didn't get a character card in Seventh Cross' original UniVersus set, as she appears on the action card "Call of the Dreamlands". Falling from a bright pink sky towards a blue and etherial cityscape as the tentacles of her eldritch being reach out to her. The card reads: 1 Call of the Dreamlands (no block) (Evil), (Life), (Void) Action Response Remove: After your opponent makes a check, that check gets -X. X equals the number of characters in your staging area. If your opponent fails that check, they draw 1 card. Failing that check does not end the Combat Phase. Form: Your next 4 non-attack cards ignore progressive difficulty. 5 With "staging area" being the old name for your stage. Eugenia, the Cheshire Cat in her human, librarian form, swathed in the green energy that emanates from her book for the attack card "Absinthin Arrow", from Seventh Cross' original UniVersus set. It reads: 3 Absinthin Arrow +2 High (Chaos), (Void), (Water) Attack Gauge: 3, Ranged, Combo(Ranged) Combo Enhance: Remove the top 2 cards of your opponent's discard pile. This attack gains 1 enhance ability printed on the removed cards. First Enhance: Your next check to play a card cannot be modified by your opponent's effects. 3 With Gauge being a depreciated keyword that now only exists in Retro and Legacy and functions as an enhance that lets you find a copy of your character (or their transformation) if you deal the necessary damage. Celinka, the Kirin, in her humanoid form. Though her teeth are still sharp, her ears and nails pointed and a singular horn juts from her head as she leans back, roaring as she summons lava for the fittingly named foundation "Purifying Roar", hailing from Seventh Cross' original UniVersus set. The card reads: 2 Purifying Roar +3 Low (Death), (Fire), (Good) Foundation Response Commit: After you remove an attack card from the game during the Enhance Step, draw 1 card. Enhance Remove, remove 1 Gauge attack from your discard pile: This attack gets -X damage. X equals the removed card's printed Gauge rating. 4 With Gauge being a depreciated keyword that now only exists in Retro and Legacy.

This ability feels perfect for a data manipulation character but who are they and why do they have a beyblade for an eye?
#GGST #UniVersus
A new common foundation for the upcoming Guilty Gear Strive UniVersus set. It depicts a grumpy and masculine looking individual, dressed in what appears to be a church uniform. Their hair and eyes are both light but their exact colour is unclear because the art is rendered entirely in black and white, apart from one eye being a large, red, bladed circle with a cross in the middle. The card itself reads: 1 Analytical Observation +2 Mid (Earth), (Fire) Foundation Response Flip: After your rival blocks your attack, flip the card they blocked with. 5
