idk if this is a bug but the moment i get within reaching distance with them grounded i just instantly lose a stock (joke)

@Skelly34wtc Thank you so much! I'm really glad you like Rudra as much as I do. Even though I didn't win the contest, my ultimate goal was to make something that other people could enjoy. So I guess I succeeded there.

I've been really busy with school and some new Rivals stuff, BUT I really want to update this character since I've got the time now. It's been too long since I've worked on him.

Oh, and you can thank WuzzyFuzzy for the lore ;p

@(Pyro) davidramirezmdq Thank you for the compliment!

This is my main in rivals and this is one of my favorite characters relating video games in GENERAL even though he isn’t cannon. Peak character lore as well. Great job

This character's really cool and enjoyable.

@mxyzptplk That's awesome LOL. Happy to hear you like em!

god this character is so fun. definitely going in my f**ked up little guys collection

@Colbx I'm glad you're enjoying him!

@Person crack

I love this character

WHAT DID YOU PUT YOUR AI ON

@cmgillespie12 Workshop support for Rivals 2 is really far out, but I'm definitely not opposed to the idea!

are you going to add this character to rivals 2 as a workshop character?

@the Critic He's pretty crazy! Feel free to check out my Balancing / Feedback Discussion thread if you have any specific suggestions.

@wooperisgod That's a really funny coincidence actually LOL

op

This guy looks like master from pixel ripped (Its a vr game)

@mushroom man Yeah, Rudra's combo game is definitely really strong. If you have any balance related feedback for me, I'm always down to hear you out in Balancing / Feedback Discussion.

this guy can combo so ez its crazy

@BrogusAmogus Glad to hear you're enjoying Rudra!

... and don't worry about the CPU. It humbles me, too.

cpu hath humble me to a low level. btw love this character

@BrogusAmogus Hi! Unfortunately, the CPU will improve in a future update. Get ready.

(Luckily for you, I don't know when that's happening.)

nerf cpu

The image embedding issue should be fixed!

Hi guys! I noticed that all image embeds I had for the description and patch notes are kind of screwed up right now. I'll try to have a fix for this out ASAP

No problem. Hope you're having fun with my character!

tysm! 👍

@levictory64 Hi! Sorry about the late reply, I've been busy with school

You're able to continue charging FSTRONG in the air as platforms disappear beneath Rudra. In terms of legal basegame stages, you'd probably only see this on Julesvale with the small platform that occasionally passes by at the top. But you can also use this by standing on the top of DSPECIAL if you know the timing for when it disappears (or if someone destroys it from underneath you)

What are the other ways to do Fstrong in the air? I only got the ‘run off the ledge’ tech.

but yes @champagne.daniel get hype!! the update is now out!!

I accidentally deleted a comment NOOOO im so bad at this

genesis alt for this guy! AMAZINGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG

Hi everyone! Super stoked to announce that Rudra is confirmed to be in the official Genesis X Workshop Roster. I'll be rolling out a patch within a few days that makes some minor balancing tweaks and bugfixes to Rudra, as well as adding a few new things to the practice mode menu. Please play my character. Please. He's very lonely.

okay. Thats what I thought

@champagne.daniel if you're referring to the dark matter attacks then yeah, they are. i felt like thatd draw attention to them a bit more

I do have one question. Are the attacks where he loses some detail intentional

@daguyz377 thank you!

@champagne.daniel LMAO, you might just be one of the few people to understand rudra perfectly

it looks like both the character and the lore would do well in ROA2. especially the part where the abyss isn't just a 2-D evil thing.

dammnit misclick didnt mean to type that

like sephiroth but less edgy and more goofy. And better and stronger and makes me want to marry him

just got around to reading everything i missed. thank you guys so much for the comments!

yes. I love that implication to Btw @the fella. Press sheild while taunting

I just realised that the stars are actually the tutorial characters like orby, since rudra shares some attacks with them.

BEST ABYSS THEMED CHARACTER

i love them so much theyre such a gremlin..
i have no other words i just love them

fstrong is broken XD

this Might be one of my favourite characters from the rivals 2 contest. He is just so so fun to play

Oh wow that is incredibly cool!

abyss! @champagne.daniel

originally it was air, but i heard we were allowed to make our characters' elements abyss so i ended up leaning fully into it
