Beetlejuice, Beetlejuice, Beetlejuice.
…uh oh.
Into the Verse Stream notes:
1. Beetlejuice looks like fun with all the movie references. Aggressive, mobility focused, and one who isn’t too complicated.
2. Most of the inspiration for Beetlejuice came from the movie (in particular the sandworms coming out of the door was mentioned along with the spikes and eyes).
3. In 2s, Beetlejuice has a Passive where he gives a boxing glove to allies. After three attacks, Beetlejuice’s neutral special teleports Beetlejuice to the opponent.
Now for the non-Beetlejuice related items:
1. Afterlife Store is coming. Lets you buy Beetlejuice style skins for the fighters (or Beetlejuice’s Circuit Crew skin).
2. Ranked is getting changes. Grandmaster Rank is coming! Be in the top 100 to qualify and get a special banner. You can also now concede matches in a Best of 3 set. RP loss is now capped at all tiers.
3. Various gameplay changes. Dedge landing improvements are one. Techs are coming. Will only work on the floor, not walls or breakable surfaces. Speaking of walls, wall fatigue now starts faster plus reaching wall fatigue now prevents up dodges. Plus, meter will not recharge on the wall. Jabs are now lost when trading (Jab 3 is exempt) based on a new priority system. There will be a video coming to Youtube that would be more in depth.
4. Titans Tower is the mid season stage. Hitting the button in the middle changes the midair platforms, with the middle platform in one version requiring a double jump. It does revert after some time. On Titans Tower variant 1, the walls become unbreakable.
5. Netcode is getting updated.
6. Everyone can now be played in Local Mode!
7. There will be Velma changes in the patch. Along with other characters. Also characters can get new moves overtime (such as Jake getting a new move upon pressing neutral special after neutral air (this was in the last patch)). This also applies to what class a character can be.
8. Regarding Discord stages, content overviews will now be focused within the Into the Verse stream. The Discord stages will now be Community Engagement focused.
