Switch wins the vote!
Switch wins by a landslide (3.7k votes), outnumbering the combined votes for Nitro (1.4k) and Grid (1.6k). These two will see a rematch in November.
Without further delay, here is the outfit you voted for!
[previewyoutube="lDBPqPMeoX4;full"] One hot summer Switch was fed up with cruising the same old streets and decided to go on a skating roadtrip. Of course, he first made a quick detour to go pick up some spare parts at the Citynetics factory. Immediately after entering a server room Switch tripped, fell and short circuited his motherboard into a full-on robo-hallucination trip. As the 'Mechranger' he traveled many worlds and saw the true name of things. He recounted his tales to Raptor and told him how Rex is the founder of citynetics and turned Latch into a cyborg. Raptor responded "What are you even talking about you can of beans?".
The alternate version of the Insectoid Loneriding Mechranger outfit is the Galaxy's Edge Mechranger:
Voting ends on Monday. The winner will be released soon after and the stakes are high — as other outfits have already claimed their spots on our release schedule and the two losers of this vote will end up further down the queue!
Choose wisely.
Merchandise
There are some new items in our collection on whatsneu: Masks!
Finally releasing the Doombox outfits individually last week was a bit of a bumpy ride!
Turns out granting the Doombox DLC to all existing Soundtrack owners made it impossible to purchase the new bundle (or the Soundtrack, when owning Doombox first).
To resolve this we removed Doombox as a bonus outfit from the Soundtrack, but everyone who purchased it before today still owns the outfit individually.
If you had any trouble completing this new bundle before, it works now!
[previewyoutube="tEx1uz0AOhs;full"] During a hefty Lethal League Match between Doombox and Sonata, Doombox suddenly transformed back into his Boombox form and spit out an indescribable entity. Sonata was taken aback at the way it crept towards her when it suddenly leaped at her. Sonata's vision faded and her mind spiralled out of consciousness... When she came to, she could feel the beat of her boomhammer flow through her veins. This is not bad at all...
The alternate version of the Stereo Overdrive Arachnida outfit is the Midnight Tinnitus:
You might be wondering how Doombox came in possession of that entity ... with his outfits now available as a standalone DLC, we have that story for you as well!
After one of his many rampages Doombox woke up chained up in a brightly lit laboratory. Pretending to be in stand-by mode, he overheard the heated discussions of his captors. "It's still subject A1, it just fused with a boombox somehow. The energy signal is not unique, that's why you destroyed that lab in South Shine City instead". "We had to use the cannon!! There was no other way!". Doombox couldn't care less about them. He blasted his chains off and shattered all the glass in the room. A half-liquid entity dripped down on him from a canister labeled B1. That was the last thing he remembered.
Candyman has dropped, but is still considered the best
Grid has recovered from last place
Dust and Ashes have made the largest drop for any character and are now considered last
We had less total votes, but a lot more text submissions and the first result of that is already apart of the game: the improved matchmaking!
You can see more detailed results and answers under #BlazeSurveyResponse and talk with other players about them on our discord:
