#DeathBattle as such as I disagree with Goku VS Saitama happening still, I think the crew are in their right to be capable of doing matchups they wanna do out of passion and fun even if not everyone's gonna be on board. Minus the Doomposters, I personally expect it to be great.
So yeah remember that #DeathBattle RANT post I said I would make, well here it is in the link below not only going into why I am not excited for Goku VS Saitama, but addresses the main issues ive had with the last two years of the indie era:

@viking_gumball Already had an issue with how overused retirners are and doubling up on series multiple times a year prior... now this is the breaking point. Generally a complete waste imo.
@Biff_Weed Summed up my thoughts but like, I already had a problem with returners being overused and doubling up on series multiple times in a year... but now this is the true breaking point for me. Never in my life had I been so emotionally drained of a next time announcement.
Shadow VS Mewtwo was amazing but never has a Next Time gotten me so mad to the point where not only can I not even talk about the new episode in a positive light, but now I outigjt wanna not be associated with the Death Battle Community... and yeah expect a full rant later on.
@nottheomartin Joking aside he technically is given his and Mentors cameo in Super Mega force episode titled "Samurai Surprise".... though we definitely missed out on a full team up between them ๐

Dude what thel hell is happening?! This week is just cursed, and now a big part of my dad's childhood is gone. Man we just can't catch a break. R.I.P. our Fearless Leader ๐ซก
@BestJonRobEver Kotal Kahn VS Illaoi (Mortal Kombat VS League of Legends)
- Aztec themed warriors who lead their tribes in hopes of uniting people through their will and respect while having a connections to God's in their own ways while also mastering spiritual and element based abilities.
I dont like comparing this but dammit man... losing such icons as Dolly Parton and Tim Curry in the span of two days is just outright upsetting. These two were big parts of my families childhood and I admired them in movies, music, and especially their life's, R.I.P. ๐
I sincerely hope its true not only cause she was an amazing choice, but it also hopefully gives them a chance to redeem her character in live action cause New Mutants really did Magik dirty. Also would be a good call given the characters popularity, Las make it happen!
Anya Taylor-Joy is reportedly in talks with Marvel Studios to reprise her role as Magik in the MCU's X-Men reboot. Kevin Feige is very interested in having her.
I think the franchise problem is how they're almost hardly any returning series that actually deserve to come back or ones that have yet to be on minus a few exceptions. Returners I also dont want gone, but very much less of them, this year has reached a serviceable limit.
Prfectly explains the same issue ive had with Death Battle. I wouldn't be as agitated if we didn't have ChiefSlayer last year, nor if we didn't have metal sonic already, and if shadow wasn't a 4th returner. Next year really gotta do better with franchise/character distribution.
I had a bit of a tangent about this because I think the disdain about them doing Mewtwo VS Shadow is actually the result of Death Battle having several other issues in the background.
It's a criticism that I think deserves a conversation, but it requires nuance and maturity
Three MHA episodes in the span of a year and CSM in three months which used their biggest reps for a while, two sonic episodes where the anslysis aren't gonna be as different... i mean even marvel was an issue last year. This and BakuReze are the two most uncalled for this year.
#DeathBattle Will have some thoughts on Kai vs Tahu later but for now.... Ugh am i not at all excited for Shadow vs Mewtwo. We just had a rematch last year, we just had Metal Sonic, and Shadow did not warrant getting a 4th episode. I hope its still good but man am i annoyed.
#DeathBattle Still boggles my mind that were in the now in that #Ninjago and #Bionicle are on the show, even in the independent era. I mean Bionicle alone which hasn't had stuff in years now makes so many other niche or non-relevant series possible. So excited to see this! ๐ฅ
Kai VS Tahu airs this weekend, and will be the FIRST EVER stop motion #DeathBattle!!
Yeah. That's right. Ninjago and Bionicle. #NINJAGO and #BIONICLE!
Whodathunk, huh?๐
This is heavily upsetting, 2xko was a game I really enjoyed and for it not be able to be continuing anymore after being in development for years just really upsets me. I should've seen it coming given the layoffs and engagement, but now facing a harsh reality like this is sad. ๐
With a heavy heart, the @Play2XKO team shares an update about the future.
- Active development will end in December.
- The final content patch goes live in October.
- Servers stay online.
- In-game purchases made before August 20 will be refunded.

@DEATHBATTLE Gonna say Ladybug, I dont get the hate for her and she seems intetesting enough. Besides at least Donatello, I really dont like any of his other options... especially Batman again which would be so unnecessary.
It's stuff like this that really makes me hate the rivals community to an extent, the whole storm situation was not that big of a deal and yet yall thought it was in yalls power to be twits abiut it spewing racist rants and what not... absolutely pathetic. Good on the devs.
Dear Rivals!
Weโve seen the communityโs feedback regarding todayโs announcement of Stormโs most recent costume as well as the overall sentiment towards her cosmetic options. We hear your passion and want to share our plan going forward with the community:
1. We will be upgrading the Sacred Skies swimsuit costume to Legendary for free in the near future. This upgrade will include an all-new lobby animation and an updated MVP animation. The costume will still be sold at the current price of $16.
2. Players who purchase the costume will receive a free Ultimate effect upgrade.
3. We want to ensure the community that there will be more Storm Legendary tier Costumes coming, so please keep your eyes on the skies over the rest of the year.
While we deeply value the expressive nature of our players, our number one goal is to create a positive community for everyone who loves this game. And while we understand that tensions run high, harassment of our staff, including the development team and moderators, is not acceptable. As the upgrades will take some time, please be patient, as we are already hard at work on the above. Get ready for the Mistress of the Elements to reign over the battlefield soon. Ignite the battle!

Honestly the last one wasn't really bad imo, and the other actor who played him did well. This time around if they dont get Warwick Davis again, then I think that's absolutely fair, if people aren't in the position to reprise roles or in condition to do so, leave them be.
