The article states her backstory, some gameplay, and a confirmation on her being wave 2.

Fire names continue to suck. Is this an injoke between the two teams that the names have to be the most uninspired ever ONLY for fire? Even Chill and others at least have a nice pun that sounds like a name.

Nice to know what the sentinel class actually is now. Now i can have Kimikara (custom praying mantis skylander) use a staff.

Ember? Really? That's the best they could come up with for a cool fire samurai?

Here's a much better name right on the spot: Burnshido (Burn + bushido). Yup, gonna call her Burnshido from now on. Burnshido.

Hmm... Ember? A slight reference to AHT? *Clutching at straws*

Just to be as correct as possible, Kotaku says she LOOKS to be in wave 2. Not confirmed that she will be in wave 2.

She still looks sweet though!

Kotaku spreading misinformation! Say it ain't so...

Hey, can you ask when you're at E3 what Wave the figures shown off will be in?

Nooo I wanted it to be Flamurai

I just hope she will be released five days after the AU release and not after the U.S one, since then we would have to wait a whole week! It's sad she won't be included in my Day 1 haul, but I'm sure she'll be worth the wait

@TheToyNerd No, Kotaku is the source. So they can't be spreading the wrong information :-P

They're the source on this. It's not confirmed that she will be in wave 2.

Possibly? Absolutely. But not confirmed at this point.

They have the full starter kit for the reveal of a new character, so I'm sure they also know when she'll be released.

Nice, her gameplay looks decent , although maybe a little effecty sometimes so it's hard tosee what's going on. Everyone's right in the Ember isn't a great name, but I think a lot of they time they choose really generic names so that people can't dis like a charscter just for the ridiculous name it's been given.

I'll call her Embera, just to add a feminine tone to her.

I have to be honest... I'm seeing more humanoid Skylanders this time around, which does NOT make me happy to be honest. I'm hoping to see more animaloid/monster-oid/...Basically anything else-type Skylanders soon.

New waifu in town. ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

Meh.... I like that it's not on two legs but it's still pretty horrendous, like Wolfgang

Wave 2, huh? Eh, no big deal, that should only be like a week or a month after the game is out.

Welp, there goes Ember's chances of ever being in Skylanders.

Classic fans will want my blood for this, but really, out of all the possible Classic characters, good riddance. She has zero character when she's not copying Amy Rose, and when she finally gets some originality, she's just a sidequest to date some armadillo. Hunter and others are where it's at.

I really do not want to see Hunter in Skylanders unless he winds up being an obnoxious tutorial person.

But yeah, I like Ember a lot now, amazing how much can change when you see a characters full design.

TBH its mostly her lack of legs

Well, there goes the streak of not using the names of existing Spyro characters. Although to be fair, it's only the fanbase that made Ember seem important. She was really just an NPC that appeared once and reappeared in another game for whatever reason. In the grand scheme of things, she's no more important than Bouncy the Gemcutter in-game, it's just that she's a dragon who acted all Amy Rose so people decided to ship her with Spyro.

The said, watch the other Fire Sensei be named Flame. /s

On-topic, not too impressed with her. Her moveset looks too similar to Smolderdash's. It may just be the perspective, but I'm not a huge fan of her figure, either. Looks really unbalanced and I can't quite tell what's going on with the arms. Possibly looks better from the side?

Thought she was a ninja, but she is a Sential

She looks cool, and her gameplay appear to be good, too. Simply "Ember" is a rather uninspired name though...

Yeah, I was being sarcastic ever so slightly. The chances of her and Flame being in Skylanders were pretty low from the start. Flame was just a copy-and-paste of Spyro, but red. Though, maybe Flavious is the reincarnation of Flame...? Eh, well, in any case, if they were to bring any classic characters back, they'd definitely be the characters like Hunter, Bianca, and Elora.

Uh, Wave 2 doesn't take longer than one week to come out after the first release/U.S release. We don't know at this point.

To be fair, Flame DID have a different shaped snout. ...but that's about it.

THANK GOD NOTHING IS CONFIRMED THAT SHES WAVE TWO.
He was only SPECULATING. So she still has a chance to be in Wave One, and if she's playable at E3 then it's probably the case.
PLEASE.

Just asking, why are you freaking out about her being Wave 1? You know that Wave 2 comes out a day or two after the actual release, right?

Not for me. I always have to wait a month after.
