PHIGHTING! | Sword Redesign Teaser (NOT MINE)

By boggio team (Aidn, Soda, and Pix)

[@Alina-Celestial425]

Of course we all love Sword’s simpler design, but I like the fact that this new redesign kinda gives him the warrior vibe that he should have since he was literally raised and trained by a deity.

[@pixelgnarp]

YES.

[@Uncannyskeletons]

It makes him look as if one day he could lead venomshank's army alongside his papa

[@IsabelaisCRINGE]

Yeah

[@ManikDarkCat]

He is old sword, but with a bunch more swagger Also is that the Ike taunt from smash-

[@ANOMALABYSS]

He's based on Marth and Ike.

[@zoogyboogy2201]

I actually like the character redesigns, it still feels like the classic phighting characters, just better.

[@stargazer-rocket-phighting]

I agree w/ this, idk why so much ppl begging the “legacy” skins to stay, it’s kinda disrespectful and ruining their effort, it’s not like regretevator where some characters become r15/rthro style, it’s r6, forever, there not even a SINGLE r15 phighting character, but why people hate it though? Thats what make regretevator more lively imo

[@stargazer-rocket-phighting]

I like r6 but people need to be less harsh on r15, like wallter is RIGHT there why people don’t care about him being r15? 💀

[@Uncannyskeletons]

​@samgosd It's mainly people not wanting to forget the old designs so they want them to stay even though they are very outdated and look very flat imo. For example subspace's redesign looks fantastic he has more defined shoes, his clothes have more layering and wrinkles and being able to see the infection spreading around his eye are just such amazing details and his new facial expression makes him seem more crazy and mad scientist than before. These redesigns are leagues better and I cannot wait until we get them alongside the crossroads rework

[@ANOMALABYSS]

@@stargazer-rocket-phighting I think it's more that it fits with the blocky style that game had before. I don't really have much of an opinion on Regretevator's direction, honestly.

[@T4sh1]

@@stargazer-rocket-phighting imo i dont like the new design but, that is only because it dosnt fit in with the style of phighting characters

[@whizzermania]

this redesign is so needed after scythe’s release. soda really outdid themselves recently when it comes to the modeling ❤

[@Jaymanhammcan]

I like the new look and this probably means rocket and skateboard are going to get makeover in the future

[@elusuario3246]

And also slingshot!!!

[@otterlord_1187]

As long as rocket looks kind of the same I'm fine with it

[@user-jx2hd3zw2u]

@otterlord_1187 as a rocket main, same dude

[@Rocket_Phightingz]

@@user-jx2hd3zw2u Same..

[@ANOMALABYSS]

They are. I'm looking forward to Rocket's because it just doesn't hold up well with the new art direction. He looks like he has no clothes.

YOU CAN AIM THE SWORD ‼️‼️‼️🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

you always could?

IM SHITTY AT AIMING THE SWORD ‼️‼️🗣️🗣️🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@Pizzzastick]

I LOVE HIS NEW REDESIGN SO MUCH‼️‼️ It really gives off the warrior vibes and i think the title they gave him (the lost adventurer) is really cool

[@zacharytitusplameran9899]

The swprd redesign is nice but i prefer the old one;sob;

[@zama7409]

I don’t know which one I like more yet, this remodel consists of more realism and detail, but swords previous basic design has kinda stuck with me and I find it iconic in a way.

[@Your_average_Broker]

Not gonna lie, I kind of like the redesign better but the old one still looks good 😭 I'm just a fan of more complex designs 😓

[@destroyer4929]

Tbh the new one looks a bit like a skin but lets be honest swords current in game model does not fit with the rest of the cast

[@Fr0gy102]

same

[@Yukari1829]

Tbh I like Sword’s old design because it is easy to remember but I like the new design tho! It’s just that I have more details to remember now in the new design.

[@PitchV]

Honestly the new face they gave the sword redesign feels like it gives him more personality.

[@precise_boi]

early and oh no it's gonna change the lore if the mohawk is added on the helmet

[@soapcreature]

His metal mohawk won't be magically glued onto his head ☹☹☹☹☹☹

[@ANOMALABYSS]

There wasn't really any Watsonian(in-universe) lore regarding the slab to begin with. 7GBO just slapped a slab there because he figured it would suffice enough as a helmet.

[@Casp_Jax]

THE ANIMATIONS ARE SO DAM SMOOTH

[@showerwaterr]

Holy carp He strike a pose 😹😹🙏🙏

[@THEBOYOB]

get bac to porgatry😡

[@Mahoganycanary]

something tells me this is gonna end up like what happened to the regretevator fandom and i'm scared :( maybe they'll add the legacy designs as a costume! (unlike cos)

[@ANOMALABYSS]

Sorry but no legacy skins.

[@ANOMALABYSS]

And besides, people actually grew to like Medkit's design once we all found out it fits his story more. It's not like PHIGHTING is moving to high poly R15 any time soon. Because they're NOT going to do that. There's not really much to worry about.

[@Mahoganycanary]

@@ANOMALABYSS that's fair. I actually like the new designs though, to be honest.

[@stargazer-rocket-phighting]

@@ANOMALABYSS phighting wont be r15 😭😭😭😭

[@ANOMALABYSS]

@@stargazer-rocket-phighting I KNOW. I was referring to what Regretevator did?

[@nbqqj]

i love his phinisher so cool :0

[@roiitherizzler]

massive upgrade omg

[@milobusterz3280]

Oh my spontaneous combustion, I’m so excited for this redesign AND the new crossroads!!

[@stargazer-rocket-phighting]

Thoughts on the new Sword?

[@PitchV]

Quick question was that little animation at the end a emote?

[@thikhanhngocle5895]

nice

[@BenniWithABiscuit]

Good redesign but feels a bit unnecessary

[@Lorbloxian]

I don't wanna offend anybody and don't want a red dot on my head but old sword looks like a dummy with horns and a sharkfin with a red torso But this sword actually looks really good! I love the cape a lot!

[@Uncannyskeletons]

​@PitchV Ye, emotes have been confirmed to be coming soon, most likely with the shop update

[@xogleeztastexd583]

Imagine his ult instead say “Prepare thyself”

[@thatgibberishrappingdog6057]

im gonna miss the way he swings his left hand when he’s walking

[@justshelby2892]

While everyone is going crazy over the design (dw i did as well) i noticed that now there is something simular to scythes ammo system on the screen, its faint but i can see a 0/100 thingy below the crossair, thats probably related to his passive rework

[@ma1ro_]

im gonna miss legacy sword, but this is fire (only thing i dont want the devs to change is his face lol)

[@sillypersonthatlovesphighting]

SAME

[@Uncannyskeletons]

You may be saddened by this news but the face is getting changed, the reason why it isn't shown in the clip is because aidn didn't update/the visuals haven't been finished yet. Although his new face looks very good. You could probably find it on Google or something by now

[@ma1ro_]

@@Uncannyskeletons rahhhh 😭

[@dove_inblack3546]

No wings in phinisher anim…

[@zama7409]

only follower sword has that animation

[@stargazer-rocket-phighting]

Thats only Follower Sword, he never canonically have wings but.. cape is cool right?

[@millmillzz]

his new redesign is CRAZY good.just hate the fact the lore including his metal mohawk wont be the same lol (/hj)

[@crzyxxv]

i mean the redesign is good but like the old one fits him better honestly

[@sillypersonthatlovesphighting]

frr

[@beewashere663]

i really love his redesign! but i think for the sake of preserving phighting's history and evolution i think a legacy skin would be quite sweet

[@nigelscorner5032]

Kinda more better than the first one w/ better animations

[@OGProbablyGnarpy]

THAT'S SO COOL

[@NotAYoutuber35]

*foams from mouth*

[@NotAYoutuber35]

(BECAUSE I LOVE TO PLAY AS SWORD NOT THE OTHER WAY I SWEAR)

[@Melisa_Melody]

🧐

[@maxlam-lc7ig]

I think they’ll remodel rocket and other early phighters to balance their looking

[@Uncannyskeletons]

All phighter will be getting a remodel, and will be released when the crossroads rework releases (or at least that's the plan in the FAQ)

[@xynites]

my man got an upgrade

[@valleystaffsnumberonefan]

[@s1nblitz]

he looks so much better

[@MemeLad147]

HES GOT A CAPE ok but why the redesign?

[@Uncannyskeletons]

All the phighters are getting remodels with the crossroads rework, as the designs in the game currently soda finds to be pretty bad and outdated

[@sillypersonthatlovesphighting]

Man, I personally don't like the redesign, i feel like it doesn't fit his personality-

[@destroyer4929]

Yes the helmet especially is just a bit strange to me and makes the redesign look more like a skin

[@sillypersonthatlovesphighting]

@@destroyer4929 i agree. Mainly i think that if they had not put a helmet on him and changed his face it would be much easier to accept

[@zama7409]

@@destroyer4929 i also agree, it’s the helmet that makes me debate on wether I prefer this one or not.
