Rulk animations

Anyone else feel that Rulk's animations for green and purple should be reversed? I like them, but crushing green ice cubes seems awfully passive for dealing massive damage to the entire team and purple is like a crazy frenzy for what is essentially an AP steal.

    Agree that the animation seems a bit strange.

    I would propose to add the first part of his purple ability to the green animation.

    So for green, we would see him 1) jump at his opponent and 2) crash the gamma radiation.

    For purple we would see him roaring and absorbing radiant energy.

    Is that what he's doing with his purple? I always just assumed he had to poo really bad, and said poo after jumping was just so painful he had to scream in rage.

    The description is that he crushes his opponents with the strength of an earthquake. So...he crushes green cubes in the animation?

    I agree, his purple move destroys the enemy's green AP, so why isn't crushing green cubes linked to that idea?

    And for his green move it could easilly have a dual animation. The jump pounce for under 18AP and the charged squat roar followed by a jump pounce for over 18.

    BTW, is it just me or does the crushing cubes animation look like something from Rayman Legends? =P

    His green animation looks like he Hulked out getting frustrated with a Rubix Cube.

    I thought it was Candy Corn the first time.

    And really? Rulk? That's almost as bad as Switch
  • Constipation move is awesome. He's going to poop green cubes to smash with his hands. He's got a chimpanzee type behavior....

    Might be some wombat in there too.
