I was joking about Soul Caliburs tendency to have clothes come flying off,in 2B's case since she's an machine I imagined her falling apart.hence disassembling

Oh right, I actually thought of that before as a possible interpretation of disassemble, but then forgot.

Do we know if she can just explode her skirt again herself with her moveset or not?

We can. As mentioned before, Self Destruct is a special Critical Edge she gets when she's down to yellow health.

It also has a rather nice spoilery Mythology Gag attached to it. She pins down the opponent via grabbing their neck, like she does to kill 9S during Ending A/B.

As much I like this game's story mode (especially for Raphael & Yoshimitsu) I'm incredibly disappointed that Rock barely gets mention. As much I want Hwang to finally return, I've always felt sorry for Rock. The developers clearly have no idea what to do with him. 1st, he gets completely overshadow by his successor Astaroth, then he gets downgrade moveset in III, his adopted son isn't playable in V in a game that's about having new successor, & finally he's only refer in encyclopedia by his nick name. While it is a stretch to call him an important character Rock is very much active in Soul Edge/Blade & Soul Calibur I, since he's trying to get back Soul Edge that Cervantes stole from his parents at auction they were holding & he's trying to rescue Bangoo from the Lizard Men & presumably that's why he has a rivalry Aeon but I don't know if he was directly responsible for Bangoo's kidnapping. I guess we're never going to see Rock ever again if this game is to go any by. Kind of a miracle that he even came back in SC III & IV

Yeah, Rock has gotten the short end of the stick since SC 1. They kept giving Astaroth more and more of his moveset, robbing him of any appeal as a viable character. Astaroth has been given even more of Rock's moves in SCVI, so barring a drastic moveset change, I doubt we're going to see him again. They've all but retconned his importance in the creation of Astaroth to begin with.

For reals? I don't remember back in SC I, but if that is the case that might be the biggest justification I've seen for moveset clone yet

Rock was my favorite character way back in Soul Edge so it's sad to see him go. I goddamn loved his goofy shrunken mammoth head costume in SCIII. It was the best.

Ironically Bang's snub in SCV was what hurt the most. That game pulled successors out of its ass but didn't give us the one people where actually expecting to show up before a Time Skip even happened. I'd love to see him use Dual Tomahawks or a bladed bow or something.

Rock and Mina basically got screwed over cause their 'Clones' were either more popular or more interesting as far as the devs were concerned 'Hell They practically admit to pulling a Third Strike Chun Li when it came to Kilik instead of trying to make him and Mina more different ends of spectrum

Don't know why the dislike Hwang so much.

Don't know why the dislike Hwang so much.

Maybe because Hwang being in the game after getting Character Development on what Soul Edge really is wouldn't have worked, given that VI is supposed to be an interequal to the first two SC games?

& yet Rock was in both III & IV while Hwang wasn't.

Sure as hell doesn't help that Rock's ending set Bangoo up as his successor
