so we know...


2 of 3 brawlers (king pen, air strike)
2 of 3 sorcerers (golden queen, mysticat)
2 of 3 smashers (tri tip, chopscotch)
2 of 3 quickshots (dr. krankcase, the blue girl)
3 of 3 swashbucklers (aurora, the unnamed pirate guy, bad juju)
1 of 3 bazookers (flarewolf)
2 of 3 ninjas (starcast, tae kwon crow)
3 of 3 bowslingers (wolfgang, the unnamed light guy, the unnamed hooded guy)
3 of 3 sentinels (ember, barbella, hood sickle)
2 of 3 knights (ambush, wild storm)

so we need classes for-

chompy mage
grave clobber
boom bloom
pit boss

and those guys can't be sentinels, swashbucklers, or bowslingers.

and the villains can't be sentinels, bowslingers, sorcerers, ninjas, or quickshots. we have villains for those classes.

god, i hate these battle classes.

It's like they're trying to make it some cryptic riddle... I wish they'd just reveal something already other than a daily Imaginator! We only have 7 characters and 2 levels confirmed; we had at least twice that amount of reveals by now last year, from the Dark Starter to the final few characters to the new Elites... why are they so secretive this year?

I'd say he's probably a Bazooker, just going off his name, the weird thing in the corner, and the fact that Air needs a projectile class in order to balance out (If Bad Juju is air, that is).

Hes not holding any weapon though, and Strike could mean heavy blows to da FACE!

Boom Bloom's most likely a Ninja so I'm gonna say Bazooker.

i heard there is no online co-op in this game, is this true???...

The only online feature in Imaginators is the online racing.

that is a huge step backwards, i loved online co-op

It's odd they left co-op out, they hired someone for online features and all. Unless they didn't and actually didn't have staff for that in time.

Also, can we agree on something here? Not spend almost an hour bickering over if X has a weapon or doesn't or looks blue or doesn't? General Discussion is feeling more like General Arguing and it's not the first time. If it's getting too important for you that you're right,take it to PMs.
I'm not going to mention names but you know who you are, more than one person. And for some you've done that SEVERAL times, just leaving people extremely angry and stingy.

I think this lack of news is driving everybody crazy. Looks like Activision missing Comic Con is affecting us more than we thought.

Not an excuse anymore. It's been A DAY since the HD pictures and we had 3 bickering sessions in a row. Self-discipline doesn't get fed by news and things to distract the kids.

Here are my honest thoughts about the possible Battle Classes for the new characters:

- Air Strike: Ninja
His pose make him look like he's throwing something and his body shape seems to match the ones of Ninja Imaginators.
I would like if they could make him a really creative Bazooker or Quickshot, like others have suggested, maybe by having his cannon or guns attached to his back and then being able to remote control them around (just to make his figure possible).

- Starcast: Ninja
Obviously, I'd say.
Hope they'll make a good use of his 3 or 4 shurikens.

- Flarewolf: Bazooker
Again, goes without saying.

- Boom Bloom: ???
This one is tricky.
I'd say Ninja, but we'd already have all three of them, or Knight but there's already Ambush in the Life Element.
Even Swashbuckler, but Aurora, Bad Juju and Tech yeti say hi.
I'm strongly convinced she's using a whip, which is mid-ranged: Brawler maybe...?
If only Sentinels had one spot left...

- Chompy Mage: Brawler
Assuming Pain-Yatta is still in as a Smasher and also assuming all 10 villains will have different Battle Classes, I think he could work as a Brawler by using both his staff and his puppet for melee attacks and also by turning into a Mega Chompy.
That being said... Yeah, Smasher seems the most obvious choice.
None of those options exclude summoning powers, though.

- Aurora: Swashbuckler
Already confirmed.

- Mysticat: Sorcerer
He definitely looks like he's holding a staff and I think a Magic Sorcerer would be cool, even if expected.

- Pit Boss: Sorcerer
Even if it seems likely, judging by the artwork, I have to say I wouldn't exclude Quickshot nor Bazooker.
I mean, if you want to reference Metal Gear Solid you might as well do it right.

- Grave Clobber: Bazooker
I'd totally expect him to shoot his fists, and I don't think he'd work well with a sword.
He would have made a perfect Brawler, but we already have King Pen for Water.

Regarding Battle Classes, I'm not a super fan of them (I never like restrictions, design and gameplay-wise) but at least they offer quite a lot of freedom, and stay true to the nature of the series.
Not to mention they have still managed to make Senseis of the same Class quite unique, so far.

What I Think are the Battle Classes:


Air Strike
I Dont see Ninja being too big of a possibility! But i dont see anything else he could be!
I Mean he does look like he throwing something! But his other hand could hold something! Maybe a Knight?
Wait no! We have Wild Storm (Theres no other air! Its his name ok!) already! Buy Maybe a small Bazooka?
Ninja/Bazooker

Starcast
Not Much to say here! We can confirm that its a ninja! With 4 muscly arms! Alien Time!
Heres so other thoughts ! Well just wanted to mention that he is the 2nd (non dragon/animal) with 4 arms! Thrillipeed!
Nobody cared about that! But i do understand! Starcast has some on his head xD
IDK jk Ninja

Flarewolf
Same Thing! We can 100% confirm its a Bazooker! But lets go deeper!
Still not much! All i can say is that he's gonna be a fan favorite! I Mean He already is!
He gonna be a hit with the kids!
Bazooker

Boom Bloom
This is a bit of a puzzle! Like mentioned before! It is like she as a whip! But what Class?
She can have a staff with vines coming out! Thats possible!
But she also just looks like a ninja! And Broccoli guys sister !
Ninja/Sorcerer

Chompy Mage
Honestly i can see him have a bazooka! Pretty much
a big Bazooka with a chompy face on it! Shooting Out more chompies!
Hes a mystery! For me either Bazooker or Smasher
Bazooker/Smasher

Boom Bloom to me looks like she could be a Brawler, except the whip thing in the picture. Air Strike sounds like a Bazooker, except his hands look empty. If Activision/tfb are looking for people to be talking about their game, then mission accomplished.

new imaginator

Zap you literally beat me by like 20 seconds

Is that Hugo's book backpack? Also those eyes officially terrify me

Oh...
Um...
He looks...
Eh...

Pretty average .

But I love those shin guards. Cool design and Not as bulky as most of the other leg armour they keep showing.

So... What's this one supposed to commemorate?

He kind of looks like Bushwack minus the wood armor.

It's for teen choice awards so probably Stephen Curry ( basketball ) .

Stephen Curry does not look good as a Skylander. Just saying.

okay my new headcanon is that bushwhack is stephen curry

Does anyone have an idea of what creature air strike is? He's face looks like scorp but he appears to be a turtle as well. All I know is that I am excited to find out.

It's nice to see he's not a bird lol.

Really hoping he's not justanother light blue skinned humanoid like lightning rod , gusto or thunderbolt iether.

The air element really needs some more diversity these days.

I'm hoping he's some kind of insect/ spider.

It's weird not having online co op. I loved that feature.

I could have even been more fun this time, as it would have provided a way to share creations with others.

Not an excuse? Here's one: an argument is, in fact, a type of discussion, so don't act like they have no place in a General Discussion thread.

That one's from yesterday.

These last 2 pages have been arguing and battle class speculation. I'm not sure how much I can handle.

Chompy mage will be a sorcerer considering we are getting 11 villains here guys!
Each class corresponds with a weapon
What does he have? A staff
He will be our second villain sorcerer OK putting this die now hopefully he will be sorcerer no way he can be anything else I am willing to bet on that too

New imaginators:

I know where he's from! It's the cowboy from Night at the Museum I think!

As for the other one... I have no idea.

Well I definitely see some fur around his head so I'm guessing some type of primate again. He kind of reminds me of a tamarin with the tufts of fur on his face but eh, maybe a tamarin with less hair seeing as he doesn't have a lot of it like tamarins do.

I'll spare you a trip to google and here's what a tamarin looks like

I don't think that's possible actually...

New Brawler. Nifty Drobot wings.

New Brawler. Nifty Drobot wings.

That looks awesome actually May create it when I get the game

SWEET! That looks really cool.

It looks really ugly.

The wings really don't work that small but it's just a setting, not as big as they can get, I hope.

The Drobot wings are obvious but the crest on the head also belongs to Drobot too. It seems that if old characters unlock parts, then some might unlock more than one.

Honestly I want that to be a thing but instead of only unlocking them it just gives it to you instantly otherwise you find them like every other part.

what if this isn't an Imaginator but instead s3 Drobot?

I think they're part of sets occasionally, Isaac. We've seen several Bushwhack and Bat Spin parts iirc.

It's body is like... plasma. It's cool

Not gonna lie tho, there's a disturbing amount of pantless Skylanders. There are several parts already all about Speedos and shoes. That's the weirdest author appeal I've seen in a while.

Yeah... I really don't like that.

I'm really not liking any of the creations we've been getting from them. I've only found about two creations that I think are decent, in all honesty.

I'm so sick of them posting Imaginator pictures. I get it, you can make your own Skylander. Show us some Sensei screenshots for crying out loud!

I don't think PR can talk about unrevealed characters. It's always been like this unless they screw up and show one accidentally(the racing screenshots come to mind).

Yeah there was a screenshot of Ambush a little while after he was revealed but yes, I too tire of Imaginators. Let us make them ourselves dang it!

Just went back and checked and they actually showed Ember's, Wolfgang's, and Ambush's artwork in a reveal sort of manner. Wouldn't mind having those for some of these leaks.

Or they could go the Pokemon route and say beforehand when they'll reveal stuff but idk, I've got Sun and Moon on the mind
