Is there going to be a character select for challenges once there's another character?

Two statusesOh like something opposite of rampage? Like a status effect that gives the boss strength if you don't play cards or even… Frail? The status effect of……Actually - while we're on this topic I might aswell ask the community: If I had to make the three individual bosses each counter certain strategies that players like to rely on, which ones would those be?Hm… well first off make sure not to have anything that perfectly counters a strat as to not pull the rug from under a player using it.
An example would be infinite ability loops causing you to win turn 1.
That said here's my idea for a boss that counters the inf energy strat:
-Passively gains strength
-Every once in a while does an attack that is stronger the more remaining energy you have (or maybe stronger by the energy you started with if you have any energy remaining)
I like this idea because you could just not activate jutsu 1 but risk it building up too much strength or you could go for an early kill but risk not getting rid of enough energy and getting recked. This makes inf energy risky but not unplayable.
*During this time Ginsi set off to a mission to find cecil the alien and find the status effect that cecil has*
Fully heal's Cecil's HP at the end of his turn
At the end of Cecil's turn, he loses 5 Max. HP and gains 3 strength

…Nope lol XD, anyway, inf energy would actually counter a boss with frail because it could easily get rid of the bosses strength and have energy to still block. Maybe this boss's counter attack would be implemented as a one turn status effect that makes the next attack stronger depending on how much energy you have left.You didn't refresh the page didn't you?

Is there going to be a character select for challenges once there's another character?I assume so. In the April Fools version, there are two characters and you are able to use, and you can select which one do you want to use for the challenge you choose.

As to the shields lasting, it would make the game too easy. If you want to play like that, check out the April fools version and play as Stony.

Tangara stone is for the block staying. But for 8 frost… You could one-shot ogumanga with 39 (max) strength and 8 frostcan the shields last after you cast them. also increase the max frost stacks from 5 to 8. this will help players.Right now, increasing the max frost from 5 to 8 would make frost more op than it already is.

Also, shields lasting would make the game way too easy.

That and combined with strength is nuts. Get 4 strength and 5 frost and you can deal 20+ damage depending on other status effects. If you enemy also has vulnerability? 30 damage!ah…You can do a ton of damage with cold wave.wait frost is op? explaincan the shields last after you cast them. also increase the max frost stacks from 5 to 8. this will help players.Right now, increasing the max frost from 5 to 8 would make frost more op than it already is.

Max strength is 39 so you can do 5… 6*39=234 damage, what can oneshot ogumanga and add vulnerability and you do 369 damage. I think that could oneshot all enemies all The way to endless loop 6That and combined with strength is nuts. Get 4 strength and 5 frost and you can deal 20+ damage depending on other status effects.

Is it true that MW will be renamed in its next incarnation? I have a theory as to what the new name will be.
or are my sources wrong…

I talk about this a little in the latest SRCast.
The conversation starts at the end of segment 29, but the big news are in segment 30.
