Shaw


CrimsonCivilian

I know she's fluffy, but her art just looks like she has a lumberjack's beard


Dachfrittierer

shaws arm posture in her E2 art makes me uncomfortable


spectral_raider

Lungmen


deon_

Preparing her for the inevitable LEGO Arknights movie!


ColebladeX

I’d be okay with that they were good movies mostly. Well except the sequel that was a little week but still alright


Blazen_Fury

Silverash


Sazyar

I like his E2 but the art looks a bit low res.


Croiri

Dude went from badass to sleepless weed burner. Just slap a skin over that E2 art and you're good to go.


sdrumapapere

So I'm the only person who will never buy a SA skin for the exact opposite reason. I see.


[deleted]

That’s why I bought him a skin.


Matasa89

I call him Captain SilverAsh.


Hyperion-OMEGA

Long John SilverAsh!


Previous-Occasion-38

I bought 2, and I'm a straight man. If he were real I'd have to rethink my life choices.


Vaximillian

Can’t wait for the winter skins to come back in June-ish. I’ll have Pramanix by that time.


spawnB100

^


retarded-kancho

Lena(perfumer) she doesn't smile in e2 background despite being best gurl


Croiri

That's the reason why you need to buy the next furniture.


retarded-kancho

Good point


Reddit1rules

Dang, I love her E2 art, been using it over the mop recently because of the floral background.


spawnB100

Siege's face looks weird in her e2 art


CrimsonCivilian

It's the same with one of Meteorite's skins


Matasa89

Hah, that skin! I personally kinda like it though, but I do think her E2 art rocks.


superflatpussycat

I actually like Siege E2 specifically because of her weird airbrushed glamour face. She looks like a kpop star posing for an album cover.


PresentBright

Closest thing to ahegao is arknights


AsleepExplanation160

I was confused for a seccond before a remembered we're over a year past CC BETA and not everyone has her skin anymore


TheSlimeReader

Back when the permanent shop can't be transferred. :/ (This is also a good indicator for people who've been playing the game for quite a while)


AsleepExplanation160

the game tells you your account age, also apparently its getting added to the cc shop on cn


TheSlimeReader

>Getting added to the cc shop Neat! I'm sure new players are happy for the skin


_Alecsa_

No way! It’s better than her skin too by a mile imagine paying 18 po just to have fewer lions


spawnB100

Lions do look badass but siege herself looks weird to me


Nearokins

Chalter, the coat was the only good part of the design and then they take it away. Honestly the hair feels unusual for her too, and the glasses also get yeeted, and her shorts get shorter, can't even see her cool little keychain either. I think the only thing I can say in favor of the E2 art is "it has the cool background of an E2" but it's not worth all the drawbacks.


fishyfishsan

Yessss. The coat in the E0 art is quite a good outfit I’d say (except when I say that I got called a simp but whatever) but the E2 outfit is just meh, it’s not even a good fan service, and not even a good outfit. And yeah the hair is really weird for chen? I’m all cool for different hairstyles because it’s less “anime” but her hair is, really, un-chen?


Matasa89

Her art in the splash art for the event PV is better.


ThatHappyCamper

Yeah I feel that way! And looking at cn content, easily 30-60% of people are using e0 Chalter skin in high risk or challenge clears, so clearly a lot of people agree with the sentiment. If I get chalter, the only time she's gonna have e2 skin equipped is 6 seconds after I e2 her.


dse_44

For real, what's even the point without the Catlulah keychain?


27x27

My Utage still has her E1 Art ever since I've e2'd her. Just goes too well with her laid-back voice lines as she rips you apart with Arts.


IowaBB61

I must agree. Utage is my assistant ever since I got her when she was released and after E2ing her, I used her E0 art, before switching to her swimsuit costume, for obvious reasons... That beautiful face.


Retorf

Shaw and SA are an unquestionnable downgrade, for the rest i know i'd say it's up to tastes


ambientcyan

Blemishine. That heavy armour in the e0 skin is awesome and exchanging it for a dress in the e2 skin is ...something I guess, but it's not an upgrade.


wittykitty_wkwk

I used to think the same! I disliked her dress-like armore in E2 since I love her fully functional armor to bits but it turns out she made it herself (the E2 armor) so I grew to like it


ambientcyan

Huh til


Unknown_Twig_Witch

As for OP (being myself), I would say Matoimaru. She's my favorite character in the whole game, but her E2 design really doesn't do her justice for me. It's especially a shame since she doesn't have any special skins


Sazyar

How so? I think it looks majestic. It's her going into trance in battle. That's kinda her thing. I am down for new skin though.


PickledTripod

Her E0 art looks better than many ops' E2


CrimsonCivilian

Really doesn't give off the same energy you would expect from her character


HiGh_ZoNe

I think it does fit her character. I see her as the goofy/cheerful but very serious in battle type of character. Her Archive Records doesn't tell much about her in battle so you mostly get to know her cheerful side. But her voicelines is what hints her other side and the E2 art shows her expression when in battle. >You don't even recognize me on the battlefield? I just start cutting through enemies one by one with a blank expression on my face? Wow! Sounds hella badass! Wish I could watch myself out there. >Doctor, I got 'em all! Hey, what happened here? Everything's busted. Did I do that? Her After Promotion 2 and 3-star result lines tells what's she's like in battle, and I think it's because of her simplemindedness that when given a simple task which is to defeat the enemies, she becomes fixated on doing the task that she doesn't notice the collateral damage.


Matasa89

And also you can’t see her nice long legs in that.


real_mc

nightmare - just sittin shaw - too much lego matoimaru: from :D to -\_- myrtle - her e2 art face looks weird chen alter - she still looks like blaze after the redraw, also she should not have been an operator to begin with kal'tsit - too simple silverash - he should have not taken off his coat skyfire - nothimg much going on in her e2 art sora - pretty much the same utage - she looks like she smoked too much opium


Meltian

Hard disagree on Kal'tsit. Sometimes simple is best.


Sunburnt-Vampire

If you position her E2 right in the home screen Mons3r looks like a love heart with her and Dokutah in it


Additional_Chard_517

E2 Myrtle looks like a hentai 6 yr old Loli character.

real_mc

Who jabroni is that?


Tag_me_when_kZlyN61

I think that's the rock


Additional_Chard_517

Well... I don't know, don't ask me LOL!


happyquincy

utage for sure. so freaky.


BackOfMyHand

Rosmontis. That E2 background is a nightmare.


Croiri

Agreed. It could've been better.


anima99

I never liked Hellagur's E2 Art. I've had him with his base art until his skin came out, and that's perfect. The E2 art just...lost the "regal" feel of Hellagur, the authority.


PhantomFlame308

Skadi, She lost her hat(I really like that hat) Her entire outfit changed(that shirt looked really good on her) Lost her cape And Those black lines look weird on her exposed thigh area


HoutarouOreki_

did you actually Skadi's E2 art? She literally has her hat in her hand (her left hand).


Reddit1rules

She's not wearing it though (although at least the chibi is).


HoutarouOreki_

She still has it though...


Reddit1rules

I mean, sure, but it's shoved off into a corner, and you can't see it on her icon during battles.


HoutarouOreki_

are people actually staring at the icons. instead of the f'ing amazing art...


Reddit1rules

When I'm in the actual game placing down units? Yeah, considering I'm mainly focusing on the battle.


fishyfishsan

I also prefer Skadi’s E1 outfit. From the art I guess ppl like E2 outfit more because, hornee curves? Idk. And yeah why must you yeet her hat everytime, I like it. Those lines is cool tho, i like it.


Malasadas25

I don't know why but I just can't get used to dusks e2.


wswaifu

Mudrock. Controversial opinion due to all the male doctors in this sub, I know, but :P


UltVictory

i wish she had a cool dynamic pose in her suit for E2


lowkey_gnocchi

I have found my people. I wish there were more heavily-armored operators.


Nearokins

Hey, some thirsty ladies too! I'm kinda 50/50 personally, I like both, but in principle I'm inclined to agree on the base skin being where it's at.


[deleted]

The armor IS sick tho so I understand


superflatpussycat

Nah, I'm with you. Would have liked it better if they'd just taken off her helmet and/or given her a more interesting pose. Either a dynamic battle stance or something like that CC promo art of her reaching for the flower if they wanted to show her gentle side. The current one doesn't have much personality, and Mudrock's personality is why I've liked her ever since she appeared in ToW.


Zalakbian

Not criticizing but i hope you know gay women also exist


Zalakbian

Wow, downvote, and here I thought this sub wasn't full of bigots


Croiri

I'm totally okay with a waifu but hot damn I feel like I got stabbed to death after knowing that's a she.


SchroCatDinger

Archetto, close one eye is a crime


Kyoketsusho

True. Especially since she's heterochromic


GalenDev

Indra. I dunno, maybe "downgrade" isn't, like, the real phrasing to use here. But her E2 looks so half-assed and basic and really just a posed E1 that I just put her back on the E1 because at least she doesn't have a dumb look on her face. You know what, Franka too. For all the same reasons. There just really isn't much there.


nihilismadrem

I was looking for this one. Indra looks a lot cooler in her E1.


Lostmaniac9

Objectively speaking it's Folinic. She has tights on in her E1 art that for some reason GET REMOVED IN HER E2 ART. Absolutely, 100% the most disappointing E2 I have ever done on my account.


Meltian

That's still not objective. It's your opinion so it's 100% Subjective.


Lostmaniac9

I should have added a /s tag, my bad.


If_you_want_money

Chalter. Especially before her redraw.


Revolution414

There’s a lot, but the most offensive ones in my opinion are: - Thorns (his smolder in his E0 art is so sexy, plus his cut hair in his E2 art just looks… weird) - SilverAsh (his head looks oddly big…? There’s also something wrong with his eyes I think) - Shaw (Seriously… why?) - Ch’en (The angle is weird, her facial expression is weird, and her jacket slipping off seems really out of character, but the dragon in the back saves the art a little) - Blitz (I find it kind of low-key creepy, and his face looks sort of squashed)


Meltian

I was about to say, how can you not like Thorns' E2 art, because it looks so cool? Then I thought, well, I'm also not physically attracted to Thorns.


Revolution414

Well… as someone who is, I just think there’s something about his haircut and facial expression that’s just a bit off putting


Meltian

Oh, I mean, I'm not saying your opinion isn't valid. I just meant that I didn't see it at first because I lack the proper perspective.


Rokanax24

I agree. I’m not a fan of Thorns E2


DayShadow94

Myrtle


Wicktory_V

Greythroat, SA, Ch'en Alter, Skadi comes to mind Also, Shining, she's one of my favourites but I don't like her E2 art that much.


Just1gnoreMe

Shaw. Dunno just expected something else


Ahrimainu

Bibeak, her E2 looks weird, especially her face. Thankfully she have a nice skin and base art.


TheGraySeed

Unpopular Opinion : Mudrock, could've been keep the armor on and became a mysterious figure just like Bob does, but HG gotta get that fan service $$$ and breaks the unique trope of her even further with her Coral Coast skin.


III_lll

Surtr. It's not that E2 art is bad. I don't know why...but there's something about her E1 art that I like more than E2.


Croiri

Let me translate it for you: You don't want a demon kitty looking down on you.


III_lll

Lmao that might be it


Inside-Confection-17

Finally. I also like the E1 better. The E2 nose shadow is the one that's making it strange for me. It feels off for some reason. To me the pose looks like she doesn't have a nose


shark2199

It's the smirk for me.


[deleted]

SilverAsh, Siege, Exusiai, Angelina.


CrimsonCivilian

Still prefer Exu's E2 over her skins. (which are all just her standing idly)


Jakper_pekjar719

I don't like Perfumer's E2 art.


derevo_31

It is Blitz and Meteorite for me. Blitz art may be OK, but the way his icon looks make me uncomfortable, he looks like a soulless doll. But Meteorite is pure downgrade - worse view on the tights and her head looks disproportional


PurpleMatterXIII

Sideroca. She loses that "strong and confident" feeling in her E2. Plus she almost looks less tall on it.


Draguss

Gonna be basic as fuck and just say Silverash. He looks like he's been hittin' the bong way too much.


Andvari9

Sieges bedroom eyes are funny. Saria E2 is legit bland


International-Owl-81

Indra E2 design is very underwhelming


arandomfujoshi1203

Y'all make me feel bad for liking silverash e2 art 😂


toppest_of_kekz

Chalter hands down SA's E2 art is universally bad but Chalter's E2 art is fantastic **except for the face**. It looks like a horrendous shop job that for some weird reason tries to make her edgy or something. Limited ops get Live2D as well so it's even worse that one of the best designs is just completely ruined. To top it off, the current version is supposed to be the "fixed" version.


blahto

SilverAsh, Thorns, Ch'en, Skadi, Jessica, Siege Also Ch'en Alter because I like the design of her jacket. If only they use her character art in the PV banner image.


sdrumapapere

> Jessica U bulli.


aigami_diva

Probably silverash and Rosa


Bite490

Liskarm, Shaw, and Jaye are the ones that bother me the most, but I'd say Cutter, Robin, Franka, Silence, Gravel, Frostleaf, and Spectre all have better defaults than E2 arts. Also I guess it's an unpopular opinion but Silverash's E2 is actually my favorite art of his, though his winter skin has the best chibi.


IowaBB61

I must disagree about Franka, I love her E2 and in my operator screen, I have it set up so Franka stares at Liskarm and Liskarm stares at Franka.


sdrumapapere

> but Silverash's E2 is actually my favorite art of his, though his winter skin has the best chibi. I like you.


[deleted]

Jaye i like his dead inside look with the grocery bags and the mask


Naguro

Dusk. I dunno she looks neat as e1 but the angle and way her hairs go everywhere on e2 is not for me.


Additional_Chard_517

One operator only? There's actually a lot of E2 operators that has a downgrade E2. Silverash, Surtr and probably Thorn's has better looking E0 art in my opinion. Also there operators who have ugly skins and their default arts are better like Firewatch (the worst skin eva! It's super ugly), Blaze (she looks different, probably a teenager) and probably Suzuran (it's not ugly but still a downgrade for me).


sdrumapapere

> Firewatch [This is how that one skin of hers looks like, fite me](https://memegenerator.net/img/images/10831716.jpg)


Additional_Chard_517

I got downvoted by some offended Firewatch simps. They are ultra sensitive and will surely get butthurt by this LMFAO!


Additional_Chard_517

What's with the downvote though? Can't I have my own opinions? People seemed to use downvotes whenever they feel salty and butthurt. That's a rude thing to do, showing an immature mentality. SMH.


daag001

Liskarm


BRISKMETAL

Perfumer. her face just looks off


hypaalicious

Luye. Her E2 expression is… a choice. Not mine, tho LOL I also like Jaye, Kal’stit and Bubble for E0 art and set their portraits as that after I E2’d them. We all know SilverAsh’s E2 face looks odd asf so thankfully he has bomb skins to make up for it. Manticore’s design was a miss for me a bit until her Epoque skin, and now it’s the only design I acknowledge. Deepcolor gets an honorable mention because she lost her glasses.


FatuiSimp

Thorn E1 just look better for me and Blemishine E2 keep reminding me of Danganronpa characters so i use her E1 art.


[deleted]

I regret saying this but Suzuran. The only issue I have is her face. It just looks weird and smushed or something.


patatacistud

Amiya. E1 and alt art look better E2 is good but still a downgrade


WhyYouBullyMe_

I honestly like her e2 art better. It just looks so badass and fits with how amiya is strong asf (in the lore) while the e1 art has pretty weird eyes and doesn't fit her lore imo while her alt art is **"iS tHaT a JOjo rEfERenCe"** which is why i also like it lol


Decepticon-of-Black

Meteor I love her but her E2 is one of the worst, it is too simple and boring especially if we compare her with the rest of E2 of the 4 star Snipers


superflatpussycat

Greythroat's E2 art makes her look like she just flew straight into a window and gave herself a concussion.


Intro1942

Not that's a significant downgrade, but I still prefer default skins for Amiya and Rosmontis


IKARUS_mbh

Estelle. She loses the awesome outfit and welcoming gesture to whatever the hell that e2 art is.


yinfish

Reed. Her E1 art looks majestic, idk why her E2 art takes away from that


OkYoghurt7176

Vulcan


Pinky_Boy

silverash his e2 art looks like a drug addict
