Peacock Thread: Straight From Toontown

Aren’t the official names for Peacock’s henchmen Andy Anvil and Tommy Ten Tons? I think MikeZ or Ravid said that at some point in the main thread, or it was some crazy fever dream I had. The fever… Skullgirls fever…

yes, thats their names. their amazing amazing names. (and lets please not get back into this bomb name thing…)

The Bird’s name is Avery as well, after good 'ol Tex.

Also the % from Mike Z’s mouth at ECT over the Steamroller was 5%.

Ratio 4 Peacock for life!

On a side note: we need a new ratio nomenclature for SG because CvS2’s one cannot be precisely emplemented. I mean AFAIK in CvS2 your choices was 4, 2:2, 3:1 and 2:1:1. But in SG it would be 4, 2:2, 1(1/3):1(1/3):1(1/3). Which isn’t really convenient. So I guess for “SG lingo” we should just use number of chars in the team.
1Peacock
2Bella,Forty
3Fillia,Peacock,Parasoul
or something like that.

I just want to say, the “Garbage Day!” reference has got to be the most awesome thing ever. I think that alone sold me on Peacock.

Your av is pretty wtf but funny.

I love how crazy Peacock’s normals are. Stuff like “Pulls a sledge hammer out from behind her and swings it downwards then shoves it in to one of her eye sockets” is just great detail.

If you assign her item drop for assist it will be always light drop, right?

Are you talking about manually assigning the assist? Or the pre-loaded assist? If manual, it depends on which strength you use. I’m not sure what the pre-loaded one is.

Don’t know why you would do anything but medium anyways.

AFAIK to get something aside from light item you need to hold button and release when shadow is big enough. But if item is dropping by assisting Peacock there’s no way for you to make it bigger, right? Or am I mistaken?

You’re right, I asked about that long ago, and MikeZ said no button charging during assists. Though as awesome as the random Road Roller assist would be, it would probably be a terrible choice. Peacock would likely be standing out there FOREVER if you could do it. Heck, look at the MK George (go-kart) assist that seems fairly popular from the videos taken, it feels like she’s out there half the round.

Also, now that I think about it, does anyone else think Peacock’s exit animation after an assist seems really long? She busts out an awful lot of softshoe before getting the hook…

Isn’t she invincible while taunting?

And thanks for answer.

I think it was mentioned before that she is. I could be wrong, but it that’s the case it could work in your favor if your opponent focuses on her instead of the point character. Wishful thinking, I know.

Everyone is invincible after you tag out I believe. Longer taunt is probably usually worse because it’s more likely your opponent will be able to punish the incoming character.

Does the taunt itself actually effect when the character comes in? I don’t recall exactly. I assumed it would be a set number of frames and Peacock just stays on the screen longer than most.

I don’t know but my gut tells me you are probably right…

It will be logical, right? =3

i love the JoJo reference. definitely gona play as her :smiley:

I love this character and seriously can’t wait for the game!

If you item drop as an assist, does it have to be light?
