As someone else has pointed out, this was a Base Raid for an Object of Power!
The Mask of Serafina evidently has something to do with Serafina the genie in Brickstown. Her former master was Sirocco the Desert Wind, who I believe was killed in the Rikti war and is now back as a villain.

Take a dash of Illuminati, add a sprinkle of Mafia and just a touch of Omnipresnce and a healthy helping of mob violence...

MOVE.... ALONG....
*Gibbers from awesome overload.* 
Here's to City of Heroes: Advent Children! *Passes out*
Ok,
As for Sirocco, HE GOT KNOCK THE <bleep> OUT!, by Statesman. 
I am betting that Karate Dude Boy is Kublai
I always thought that Positron was a Blaster, he look more like a RAD/RAD Defender in that Trailer.
Posi remade himself as a Rad/Rad when he found out how ub3r they were
But yeah, he's a Rad/Rad Defender as Manticore explains...and, of course Anti-Matter, his Praetorian, is Rad/Rad.
Well, it's good to see some things never change. Blasters can't even catch a [censored]ing break in the god[censored] trailers.
Thanks Mattman dont know how I missed that post.

Well, Synapse getting smashed is a pretty accurate representation of what happens in game.
Synapse is an Elec/Elec blaster
He ran ahead "to scout"
Now what happens when that uppity Blaster in your group decides he's gonna "Scout ahead"? He ends up a grease-spot on the mission buildings floor

Exactly. It is no wonder they got bloody ownedÂ…
The CoH devs are freaking n00bz!!!!
They send the blaster in to take aggro firstÂ… Leeeeerrrrooooy Jenkins!
The former tanker Statesman stands AFK at the back, ignoring that taunt button and lets Pos and Manticore, the defenders, get popped.
Pos decided using his Toggles is cheating, and pre-battle buffs are a waste of end and decided to be a weak blaster.
The Jet-Li wannabe forgot to read the boards: news flash, both SR and MA are gimped. 
Hell, all they were missing was a MoG using Regen and a Solo built Mind/Storm controller.
I love Ghost Widow!
It's true, it's true, the Villians showed good teamwork and the heroes didn't. But mostly, I think they needed a good defender. So this is clearly all Pos' fault.
PERC Supporter
La Pucelle (BS/SR)
Miseria Bella (Sonic/Dark)
Wrangler Annie (SS/Elec)
Coldsmoke (Ice/Dark)
Saber Maid (BS/Regen)
and others...
I thought it was great to see Manticore standing guard outside the base at the start of the raid--if the devs include keeping guards to watch for returning heroes/villains I am soooo going to have a field day.
Now, the real question is, how can I get my villain group to raid my hero group while I can only play on one side...
Dang.

It's Scirocco.
And apparently the Mantle of Scirocco clearly has something to do with how Mr. Baggy Eyes keeps popping up, regardless if the previous owner of the mantle died.
And I can't leave without saying: More about Scirocco and his connection to the Order of the Four Winds will be revealed in the upcoming game City of Villains. It is being developed by Zeb Cook and will be released this fall. 
ETA: Whoever's complaining about the villains fighting dirty.... DUH! And besides, they don't call her Ghost Widow for nothing!!
Never surrender! Never give up!

He should have picked up the concealment power pool and gone for phase shift

No joke. I even saw him using Crippling Asskick. Even geko wouldn't take that power and he designed it.

I made a character who is insane, but fights crime anyway. Part of the deal is that he's gagged, but communicates telepathicly. Only problem is, no good gag item.
Well, there is in CoV.. I guess he'll be bad!
All I can say....is to Stateman, that's what you get for going into a fight with out a tank....
Isn't there already a hero named Black Scorpion?
They made a really crappy SciFi show about it awhile back...
Hope it's not Marvel

Marvel has a 'Scorpion', who's a smaller guy with a hi-power green tech suit and a big stinger, which is his main weapon.
There's enough difference between them that I don't think we can worry about a link.
man this trailer is really tight. I really want to see a movie by whoever does hte animation for these. This is as good if not better than the animation in that final fantasy movie.

There was a Black Scorpion show I would catch late at night, it was a chick in a black costume with bad acting and even worst FX..
I posted this answer on another thread, but I'll pass it along here. The new guy from the trailer is Foreshadow.

States: Well someone has to scout.
Manticore: I'm not doing it, I just go my suit cleaned.
Positron: Don't look at me, I'm all out of awakens.
Jet Li: Hey I'm a Natural, one of you super freaks do it.
States: Geez guys, we're heroes here, one of you has to go!
Synapse: Why is everyone looking at me? Oh I get it. Send the blaster right? I'm just going to die anyway so why not?
Manticore: Just go do it, you have SS.
Synapse: Yeah fine. Just have your rez ready Posi.
Positron: Dude, I spec'd that out last week.
Synapse: ........you guys are [censored].

Really? Oh, my.
I hope we don't see some superbeing named Conclusion or Epilogue in the near future.
Statesmonkey Sez: Lighten up! It's a game, for Lincoln's sake!
Also: Six years of casual play begins to look an awful lot like one year of hardcore play.
My favorite part is when Lord Recluse practices his ventriloquist act with Synapse as his puppet.
I just kept giggling and rewinding, watching LR 'animate' him.
