Might want to hold off on the "pointing the mitten-hand at the fences" emote. Could be confused for something else.

Man, it really took some balls to post that list.
We've been saving Paragon City for eight and a half years. It's time to do it one more time.
(If you love this game as much as I do, please read that post.)

Not So Fun Fact: If you're fighting Anti-Matter without his armor on, you and everyone within a 100 mile radius is already dead.

At first I thought this was a serious thread and then I saw you started it. Well done, yet again.
Steelclaw... I would say you nailed another one right on the head... but that's the whole point of the list!

*insert snarky comment about SteelClaw being on the "The Ball"
I love the idea of the Carnies / Knives doing the "Field Goal" emote on a successful attack.
Robotics Masterminds' Assault Bot will now have a ranged variant of the Knee to the Groin power: The Crotch Rocket.

I always thought of it as a Tiger Knee.

*snickering* Perfect... Horribly, horribly cruel to all those poor, male goons in the game... But still... Perfect.

That chick what plays the bird-things...
No they haven't.
I did well almost all the way through the list, but the field goal comment nearly made me choke on my tea. Spot on.

Then how about a punch preceded by a Rock-like spit-in-the-outstretched-hand maneuver? It's more mitten-friendly.

Aardwolf - level 50 claws/invulnerability scrapper
Anchor - level 50 level gravity/forcefield controller
Dr. Dusk - level 50 mercenaries/dark miasma mastermind
Also...
Now we know why they added in the Catch A Breath emote.

What no squeeky voice over saying 'You'll pay for that'.....?
"My life is not a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely pretty and well preserved, but rather I will skid in broadside, thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and loudly proclaiming...WOW...What a Ride"
How about this: if used as the finishing blow to a male character they perform a special death emote- they collapse to their knees with a resounding *ufff* and fall flat on their face.

Seriously... now that it has been confirmed that Street Justice has a Knee To The Groin attack in it I'm sure everyone will be busy making lists of who they want to lure into a PvP zone...
...and strategies of how to get them there.
A few things I would love to see from the new Knee to the Groin attack:
* A CLANG with no damage, a sad shake of the head from your opponent and you hopping around clutching your knee when used against robotic/metal opponents.
* When used against normal males we HAVE to have the eyes-popping-from-their-sockets animation on the victim. 2 feet for standard hits and 10 feet for a critical hit from a Scrapper.
* Let's face it folks... this one HAS TO BE the stalker's assassin's strike move.
* When used in PvP zones versus a male opponent there should be a voice-over of a six year old girl screaming for her mommy.
* Instead of the Terror Effect usual for Stalker's Assassin's Strike, every male in the area witnessing the Assassinate Groin attack will cringe and clutch themselves protectively for the duration of the usual terror.
* Any female who uses this attack against a male opponent then immediately chains into a Dance Emote to mock them as they crumple to the ground will gain an experience point bonus.
* The animation should include a Babe Ruth "point to the fences" emote just before the attack.
* A new Boss Level opponent in the Knives of Artemis should be created who ONLY uses this attack.
* ANY female opponent who is on the receiving end of a groin attack that misses from a male has a 25% chance of saying "I think you meant to do it THIS WAY!" and reciprocate.
* If a female Carnival of Shadows NPC uses this attack successfully against a male character all other female CoS in the area will throw up the "Field Goal GOOD!" emote.
* Should any male character be sent to the hospital as a result of this move; the female inspiration nurse will laugh and point at them as they exit the building.
* Due to some really twisted power proliferation, Gravity Controllers/Dominators will get a variation of this power making for the most effective single-target hold EVAH!
My mind wanders so often you've probably seen its picture on milk cartons. - Me... the first person version of the third person Steelclaw
