Ninjini's heroic challenge is up on the YouTube channel "Cuchicoco" check it out!!!! Also all of her upgrades are on a separate video on the channel!!!!!!

WOWWOW

So she's powerful?

yes she is. Possible the most powerful giant. Watch todays pvp battles!!

i'll do that now.

Her problem like many of the Melee characters is her lack of range.

As much as folks discredit Bouncer.
His tech advantage with his range would take out Ninjini straight up.
(meaning, taken out of the box/no heroic challenges/etc)
Still, she looks not bad to plutz around with.

Right now, Hot Head is still near the top fro all the Giants.
His oil blob attack has push back ability, and splash/damage over time effects.
I gotta have a battle with him versus my Humpbacks though.

^ She has ranged Orbs and Bottle Rockets.

Ninjini is not the most powerful Giant. Her Ancient Djinn Magic upgrade path alone outputs damage much lower than other Giants. Her combos stall, where other Skylanders and Giants can attack faster, so her blades don't do much different.

I'd look at the damage output over time of the other Giants before stating Ninjini is the most powerful. Just trying to be real, but she stalls in her combo attacks, which kind of hurts her.

On her path B, her damage outputs are the same or lower than other Giants.

Super Surrealistic Spheres do 38 (57 crit) on small enemies, and 47 (71 crit) on big enemies. I can get more than that out of my other Giants, and even worse, Skylanders like Bash and Prism Break.

Same goes for Ultimate Bottle Rockets. Damage output for those are a mere 15 (22 crit) on small enemies, and 18 (27 crit) on big enemies. That's a lack of power if I ever seen it.

Her Abra-ca-STAB-Bra on path B outputs 25 (31 crit).

Eye-Brawl, my friend, has combos that devastate, and by devastate, I also mean blows Ninjini out of the water when it comes to his combos.

Not trying to diss you, but rather, help you. You need to do a lot of research on this stuff. Eye-Brawls A,A,A alone hits for 107 non-critical on the finale of the combo.

Down the Eye-Brawler path (combo path) EB hits for -

A,A,A: 30, 30, 107
A,A,B: 30, 30, 143
A,A,C: 30, 30, 53, 53 (his final attack hits multiple enemies twice, as his eye swings around)

While down her Swords of Might path (combo path), Ninjini hits for -

A,A,A: 37, 37, 69
A,A,B: 30, 30, 72 (if you can get it to hit enemies as it doesn't travel at an angle down ramps enemies might be coming up on)
A,A,C: 30, 30, 20

Again, you gotta do accurate research before stating that on Youtube. It begs to be called into question in that instance.

The only thing cool about Ninjini's A,A,C combo, is the fact that the sword sits there and swipes by itself in the air, and causes enemies to flock over to it and try and destroy it. That's it, though. Her combos are clunky at best. Her Ancient Djinn Magic is much more effective, but even then, she hits for less than other Giants.

I would be so bold as to say that she's actually pretty weak when it comes to Giant damage output.

If you're going to make videos to be informative, please, please, please, make sure it's accurate, so people will build trust in your statements.

Nice! Though weird, I searched that name, then did a search on his channel for "ninjini", YouTube reported failure. But looking manually, found the two mentioned, both with "Ninjini" in the title! Oi.

Here's the two videos mentioned:

Demonstrating Upgrades:


Heroic Challenge:

Soooooooo...... Is she hacked, or has she been released like S2 Spyro, LL Chill and S2 Wrecking Ball?

Guess you didn't hear about the Game Fair event in New York City. Was something like Feb. 4, the first 300 or whatever people in line who wanted one got a Ninjini. Also, after that until February 10 they had a "Sad you missed the giveaway in NYC?" Twitter contest, 2 people a day for 5 days theoretically won a Ninjini, dunno if they have them in hand yet.

So at least 300 people might have Ninjini at the moment.

I've heard two believable possible release dates for her: February 22 (2 months about to the day from the last wave, 4 months almost to the day from the game coming out) and March 1.

I just think the topic creator was too excited about having Ninjini, that Ninjini's newness made him state she was the most powerful Giant, which is FAR from the case, no matter what upgrade path. Any of his subscribers is getting misinformed, if his intentions are to truly bring them accurate Skylanders info, with the intentions of educate people on their damage outputs.

Eye-Brawl isn't called Eye-Brawl for a reason. He specializes in melee attacks and combos. It's only natural his finishing blows, when strung together with the first two A,A's, would deal damage in the 100's.

Ninjini's Swords of Might path is hit and miss, too, because her A,A,B doesn't travel at an angle. I was testing it on Chompies and Trolls in Drill-X's Big Rig on Nightmare, and when she threw her blade at Chompies down a ramp, it always missed. You have to line up your throw on the final combo for it to make contact.

Her A,A,C is only good as a distraction, as it does weak damage, doesn't hit enemies until it stops in the place where it will make swinging motions, which then lures enemies to it so you can come up do more attacks.

Ninjini is cool, because she's a Skylander. However, she's pretty weak when it comes to damage.

Is she invincible when she dipps into her bottle?
If so, that would make her stronger.

No, but if you upgrade her bottle, it increases her armor greatly.
