Trashtalk on Lancer (Field Guide on The KTB): Emperor

[@PerroMuffin]

"Strike me down zeus, You don't have the bal-"

[@DashingSteel]

Emperor. "Do you like that scene in Home Alone where the robber becomes a skeleton for a split second from all the zaps? Well than MERRY CHRISTMAS, YA FILTHY ANIMAL!"

[@locustofchiron]

I played an Emperor in a game with an Enkidu. It was straight up not fair. The Walk of Kings + Ayah of the Syzygy on top of a feral Enkidu is straight up nasty.

[@kinggeo8545]

then you were doing something right

[@DashingSteel]

Enkidu (if played right) should have consequences for it's pilot for all the absolute SHENANIGANS it can do. Like stress within the Bonds system or not being able to do downtime activities due to needing time to recover. Enkidu makes you shine bright. But only when you BURN.

You're a gift to this community.

100%. This channel is why I can run my game.

[@Zadanoire]

*agreed. It’s why I’ve been able to gather info better than any amount of reading lol*

[@joshuasmyth3115]

Bad at support? _Hold yourself at gunpoint until you get it right._

[@VegaSlides]

"Bow to the king" is very clever. Excellent as always!

[@lucasfv1357]

Emperor is to overshield what Caliban is to knockback. This thing is so strange, I love it. Favorite SSC right with Death's Head

[@AzureIV]

Big Sal, Black Witch, and Drake would all be really good frames to sport some of these Emperor Systems.

This man fueling the whole godam Lancer Fanbase

[@CobaltDraco]

3:58 The snort I let out from seeing the Goblin yamcha'd....hoo boy. All the shocking stuff too had me laughing a lot. Fantastic video and editing.

[@miss_bec]

Step one: Take Pegasus, give it two autoguns and a heavy of your choice Step two: Take Dominions Breadth Step three: You can now turn your omnigun into 2 AP energy with an area of effect since you'll only ever skirmish on your turn, leaving you with a spare quick action to apply Dominions Breadth to anyone. Have fun.

[@cloudforest4087]

That shocking sound effect was amazing.

[@riptorusa]

My gm just added this expansion to our campaign and oh man, I can't wait for the vid on Spooky Dave!

[@lanthanite]

I clapped my hands in excitement when I saw this was released. Very good.

[@Tigerlady248]

My friend played this while I played Worldkiller. Let's just say a lot of extra fire happened thanks to that heat clear XD

[@LeafseasonMagbag]

I really really want to know how many times the word “Overshield” was used in this script.

[@IAmEnormous]

Surprised it isn't named Gilgamesh, cus' it plays great with Enkidu.

[@kennyburkamp4054]

Maybe some day there's will be a variant of this frame named Gilgamesh in a later supplement

[@zoesequeira5388]

@@kennyburkamp4054 Seems unlikely, given SSC naming conventions. To the best of my knowledge there isn't a moth or butterfly named Gilgamesh

[@jacobhartley1724]

​@@kennyburkamp4054 check the newest expansion preview... it's a completely new frame but its still cool

[@oiman5733]

There's a HA Gilgamesh coming in an upcoming supplement! Lot of the limited systems in this license would work nicely

[@mackandsneeze3748]

Dominion's Breadth when combined with the Pegasus's Omnigun can turn your enemies into bombs as a quick action every turn, for more guaranteed damage to everyone involved. It's definitely the best 1-level combo I've found so far.

[@phylippezimmermannpaquin2062]

This episode has the mandalore seal of approval

[@ThePseudologist]

Thanks for the episode

[@MizukiStone44]

What a shocking skillset.

[@McRobColl]

When using the Emperor i find it best to have an ally mech that can give proper grounds like the Blackbeard.

[@MegaTrooper555]

Great as always!

[@UltimaGuardianStatyx]

So.... Emperor and Enkidu, anyone? The melee monstrosity that encourages allies keep their distance, the overshield support that wants to shoot allies and enemies from as far as possible.

[@sgregory0753]

Can’t wait for the Siofra Archer builds for this

[@joemiller361]

Daaaang... this might be my favorite frame.

[@Levyafan]

So basically, combination shielder and bug zapper.

[@obamabiden]

i play this thing in a game I'm in unfortunately, due to what i can only describe as either damage inflation or an arm's race between the players and DM, the average enemy does enough damage to blow through its overshield cap in one good shot, so the dm let me remove that part lol

[@11dragonkid11]

Well, the point isn't completely nullifying damage, but stacking enough overshield that even painful hits get reduced to tickle damage.

[@obamabiden]

oh yeah it does work great for that in like, normal play, the game is just gotten well out of hand from the base ruleset most of the bosses are actually groups of PC lancers under GM control among other things, we had a boss who had a gun that bypassed overshield, thankfully I'd coincidentally swapped to a different chassis as part of a running joke about running a useless frame

[@kapmando]

This feels like an Enkidu one shot…

[@11dragonkid11]

PVP doesn't exist in Lancer

[@kapmando]

@@11dragonkid11 I know. I meant in world. I saw the bestiary episode.

[@kennyburkamp4054]

@@kapmando it funny you bring this up because enkidu and emperor it a great team combo like enkidu and gilgamesh from mythology and in mythology enkidu was made by the gods to kill gilgamesh but during there first fight they quickly became friends and equals and a serious power couple together against many powerful foes

[@bobsennick7403]

1k likes! What a neat mech.

[@Sip_Dhit]

Nice pun on the thumbnail

[@werewolfbat7817]

Reminds me of Zenyatta from Overwatch a little

[@erike5865]

Good day for Electric_Scream.wav

[@BadassOverlord]

Honestly this mech just feels kinda op

[@11dragonkid11]

Every frame in Lancer is OP in their own way
