Hi CCP,

Changes look good to the final matchup. Its also nice to see what we are playing for finally.

Any chance you guys change the skins to be black and red (or orange) to be more triglavian themed rather than just being a copy and paste (with a logo change) from last year?

Edit: I am not even asking for a change to the actual design of the skin, just a color change to make it more unique.

Regards,  
LT

Well, back to Incarna then. Look beyond the dress 🙂

Is that a clever play on the fact that these new ships will have Cloaks? =)

Here’s a better idea. You wear that dress and the tournament winners are going to get you as the prize.

That could still happen. Just with a different set of bonuses and role bonuses and such.

Depends, if you watch it with background light that is blue (led with cold) or yellow (led with warm) and your K values of your screen. If you watch it with x-ray goggles you can even see it is a woman.

Solipsis, not a bad name for a SoCT BC.

Or maybe a Titan.  
With even Resis.  
And 37.5% Bonus to Probe Strength.

Glad you guys enjoyed the first weekend, super happy with how Plus 10 Gaming broadcasted.

Great stuff, and the matches backed it up. Some really great showings 🙂

We already have the Gnosis, tho. SOCT DD, BC, and BS slots already taken.

So make that a SOCT Frigate or Cruiser, which are both MIA as of now.
