We know plenty of you have been itching to see all of Champions Online's melee powers in motion, and that's what you'll get with this recently released trailer at IGN. Additionally, Cryptic's seen fit to show off the teleportation travel power, which we're completely in love with and know you'll be too if you're a melee user. There's nothing quite as awesome as appearing out of thin air, right behind your soon-to-be victim.
In fact, we may have cackled the first few times we did it in-game. Okay, we still cackle now, just a little.
Some props are in order to whoever was responsible for editing this trailer, because it certainly does a good job showing off all the awesome powers. Watch closely for the Martial Arts and Dual Blade powers, because in our humble opinion those are the coolest of the bunch. Then again, there's something to be said for Supernatural chains and reality-distorting Might. Check out the video after the break.

interesting.... I've never been one for super hero MMO's, but I have played the dice / paper Champions RPG in the past. I'll admit to being "on the fence".

can you change how your weapon looks? any way to make the 1 sword style be a greatsword?

So far my only complaint about CO videos are the horrendous voice overs. But I guess good talent is hard to come by these days with Bioware using them all.

Buy the game or pay for the dodgy FP membership.
"OPEN" beta ftw.

I'm still waiting to see what sets this apart from COH. Even the combat sound effects are a rehash.

Same here... CoH was great for the first month, but after that it became a glorified chatroom. Gameplay was too repetitive and boring. I won't pay for a CoH2.
