Hey y’all,
Thought I’d start up a fun thread here and ask what everyone's favorite animation in the game is. If you have multiples, go ahead and list them!
My two favorites are, in order from first to last,
Sith Marauder's special ability. I absolutely love his saber throw, coolest thing in the game.
Grievous’s Second special ability, love the way he crawls on the ground and then slams his sabers into the enemy.
Tag me if you reply to my comment so I know I should answer you!😀 My roster: https://swgoh.gg/p/842694912/

    The other squad whiffing multiple times in a row.

    Anything Thrawn does.

    Nothing 3p0 does.

    Even though I’m sick of seeing it I think that Darth Revan’s basic is extremely cool looking. Also Thrawns posture and animations are very descriptive of his character.

    I also remember when I unlocked Vader 3 years ago being blown away by the force crush and saber throw animations. And maybe I was looking too hard into it but OG kylo second special has the same animation as Vader’s basic, as a symbol of his adoration towards him. Also lash out was very impressive when it came out

    •Sion's "Held By Hatred" animation is top notch cause that's exactly what he does in the game when you fight him.
    •Sidious' "Demoralizing Blows" is a throw back to his duel with Maul and Savage.
    •Dookus' "Master of Makashi" embodies his character.
    •Revan's "Direct Focus" has that samurai feel the way he holds his saber above his head and extends his hand.
    •Nihilus' "Drain Force" and "Annihilate" also encapsulate the character perfectly.
    •Visas Marr's "Telekinetic Blast" cause it looks like she's blowing a kiss and the turnaround with her "Piercing Strike".

    There's a lot of good animations in this game that they really help sell the "feel" of Star Wars. The animators definitely put a lot of soul and love into their art.

    Wampas break the ice is pretty cool. Mother Talzin's animation where she inflicts plague. Bossk's net shooting is cool, and as already said above, Mission shooting the thermal detonator after throwing it is great.

    I've always liked Nihilus's basic. Smooth, fluid, and deadly.

    I'm going for the coolness of how thrawn casually steps forward and blasts opponents into orbit then slips his gun away without breaking sweat like it's nothing. 😎

    Best ever was when he did it to rose!

    I love the animation for Sideous' "Demoralizing Blows" special, it's from the coolest fight in the Clone Wars cartoon.
  • Options
    Some of my favorites are dooku's master of makashi, and JKR's master strategist (his cool lightsaber throw), all 3 of nihilus's abilities and sion's held by hatred.
  • Options
    1. GM Yoda's basic Ataru animation is sick!, battle meditation as well
    2. DR's basic
    3. Dooku's master of Makashi
    4. Anakin's skill ( the new animation is so satisfying blowing away your opponents)
    5. GK's mass assist skill
    6. Thrawn's fracture!!!
    7. Qira's skill that she uses a Thrawn like movement
    8. JKR's 2nd skill where he AOE saberthrow
    9. Vader's culling blade
    10. Sidious' demoralizing blow, very bad ****!
    11. Fulcrum's meditation and whirlwind

    Favorite character animation? That’s tough. I like Wicket’s Guerilla Strike, Talzin’s Dark Magick, Traya’s Saber Storm, Nihilus’s Annihilate, Embo’s Kyuzo War Helmet, Palpatine’s Power of the Dark Side, Wampa’s Womp!, and Sidious’ Demoralizing Blows.

    Favorite map background animation is hands down Coruscant for fleet battles.

    Dooku’s new saber salute.

    Coruscant’s surface now rolls with slower moving clouds to give a neat orbital fight.

    Hoth background animations, though the snow speeders sound like Bespin Cloud Cars.
  • Options
    Embo's Kyuzo War Helmet and whatever ability he unlocks once his contract triggers.
    THE SUPREME JAWA OVERLORD!
  • Options
    The shock storm from Darth revan (don't know the English name) and grievous' specials. Also rex and his motivational cleanse

    R2’s oil Fire is still one of my favs. Love the new Grievous crawl, too.
    Ooba hutar.

    I like OG chewie's special....the one where he slings his crossbow over his shoulder and beats someone. They upped their game on animations that's for sure.

    DR's attack where he hits the ground with his saber....

    Yes, this, you beat me to it.
    Make Bronzium autoplay opening an option.

    I have a few.

    Jolee: Eh, You Do It.
    As someone said already, it's pretty fitting to his character how he's just like "meh, you got it kid".

    Zaalbar: Power Blast
    Looks cool how he sticks Bacca's Blade into the ground to whip out the bowcaster for an explosive blast.

    Dooku: Master of Makashi
    One of his signature poses from the movies and tv show. They nailed the animation.

    B1: Blast Them!
    Captures the feel that you're fighting an army of them without just copying how NS Zombie is.

    Visas: Piercing Strike
    The behind the back stab is very unique. Too bad she's not really useful of a character.

    JKA: Overpowering Assault
    The new animation does a great job of capturing a raging Anakin.

    As you notice these are all newer animations. They make the older ones look boring in comparison, IMO.
