Strikers Edge: The Ultimate Online Game with Ancient Warriors & Weapons

Valkyrie

Eir

Eir is a very well rounded, easy to pick-up character. Her charge attack releases a ground scarring oversized spear. With her special ability she can ignite that trail to deal chip, slow inducing damage.

Utility: Eir's skillset is utility based. When Eir blocks successfully, she regains a small amount of health.

Once a weak Child of the Cold, Eir was often the target of injustice and bias. She rebelled against it often, but without support there was little the shield-maiden could do about it. Then, Eir found a Godsblood crystal in the forest near her home in the North and transformed into a creature of legendary power: the Valkyrie. Possessed by the Spirit of Justice that permeated the crystal, she was now incorruptible, true and full of purpose. She wandered Gea, looking for injustices for her to right, to punish the wicked and to bring peace to the bereft of recourse...

Spartan

Argalus

Argalus finds its strategy in controling the enemy with his shield: his charge attack releases a shield that ricochets on walls and obstacles, stunning his enemies. While the shield is mid-air, you can use his special to make it explode for area of effect damage and knock-back.

Defence: Argalus skillset is attack based. When Argalus blocks successfully, he gets a temporary defence boost.

After General Gnaeus betrayed the Laurentius Empire for the fledgling ideal of Democracy, the spartan centurion Argalus took his 7th Phalanx and was deployed to bring the traitor back to the emperor. After a long chase, they were ambushed and his army and trusted lieutenants were all massacred. Left for dead, he found a red Godsblood crystal and, blinded by rage, he gladly accepted the terms and became the embodiment of the Spirit of Vengeance within. Now, Argalus scours Gea, hunting high and low for the traitor Gnaeus, regardless of the cost...

Spear & Shield

Difficulty:

Barbarian

Urgül

Urgül doesn't just throw knives: charging throws his hook chain gauntlet, a spoil of war, grabing his opponent. Then, using his special, he pulls his enemy, lowering his defences for a short period of time. This combo makes him a very hard character to master, yet powerfull. Specially useful in 2v2 modes!

Attack: Urgül's skillset is attack based. When Urgül blocks successfully, he gets a temporary attack speed boost.

Urgül of the Steppes was a powerful tribal chieftain, until he was challenged by a man called Ursus. Little did he know the man was possessed by the Spirit of Strength. Fueled by the Godsblood, the warrior was a formidable foe, but Urgül managed to defeat him. But with the exhilaration of battle, the barbarian wordlessly agreed to let the Spirit in him. Now, he wanders the world like countless others before him, looking for trials of strength and might to sate his lust for battle...

Archer

Laël

With her bow, arrows and fire spirit, Laël is a dangerous crowd control character: with her charge shot, she throws her explosive fire spirit. While her charge attack is mid-air, she can use her special to split the projectile in two opposing directions.

Attack: Laël's skillset is attack based. When Laël blocks successfully, he gets a temporary attack speed boost.

The young Laël of the Wyldfolk was always aware of the destruction Men inflicted upon Nature. One day, she saw firsthand Nature’s revenge: a bear imbued with the Spirit of Nature attacked and killed a party of lumberjacks, but became mortally wounded in the process. She tracked the bear and witnessed his death, and she accepted the mantle of Protector. Now she spends her time protecting the wilderness from ravenous predations, placing Mother Nature above all...

Weapon:

Bow & Arrow

Difficulty

Knight

Galad

Galad plays a more tactical game. With less mobility but powerful strikes, the knights charge attack launches a powerful, impaling lance, pinning the enemies against obstacles and walls, creating an oportunity for more attacks. The special ability can be used while a charged lance is stuck, releasing an electrical burst.

Defence: Galad skillset is attack based. When Galad blocks successfully, he gets a temporary defence boost.

Because of an accident of birth, the skilled Galad von Richenstein always had to fight harder than anybody else to be heard and accepted. The pain turned into pride, and the fighter used it as a shield against the world. Almost defeated during a tournament, Galad accepted the Spirit of Pride within, and used its power to kill the Knight’s brother. Forced to flee, the warrior started a new life as a sell-sword, a mercenary for hire, wandering the world looking for purses big enough to make all the sacrifices worthwhile...

Viking

Bjërg

Bjërg is straight to the point. His charge attack throws two arched axes. Use his special while they're mid-air to make then clash together and get your enemies when they think they're safe behind cover.

Attack: Bjërg's skillset is attack based. When Bjërg blocks successfully, he gets a temporary attack speed boost.

The loss of Bjerg’s family while he was on a pillaging party almost drove him to madness. Even when he killed the trolls responsible, the grief in his heart was a heavy load. Fate intervened, though, and Bjerg found a Godsblood crystal and accepted it within his soul. The viking warrior then learned of powers in the summit of Skydream Mountain that could restore his family to life, so they could be together again. Without any regard for the consequences of his quest, he accepted the guidance of the Spirit of Grief...

Tamsin

Controlling arcane magic, Tamsin invokes and hurls fire and ice shards from across the field. Use her charge to throw extra damage dealing elemental shards that tag your enemies. Mix and match those elements to discover her combos and effects!

Utility: Tamsin's skillset is utility based. When Tamsin blocks successfully, she regains a small amount of health.

The vain sorceress Tamsin felt the years dragging her down to her inevitable death. Terrified with the idea, the mage delved deeper into books of arcane knowledge, dark blood magic and necromancy. One day, she believed she found the solution, and she summoned a Netherfiend from beyond Gea. But the demon was powerful and she lost control of it, and was forced to flee, teleporting to a volcano island. There, she found a Godsblood crystal holding a Spirit as vain as her. It told her of the immense power hidden beneath Skydream Mountain, that she could use to defeat the Netherfiend and claim eternal life. She accepted the Spirit’s bargain and started her quest...

Ninja

Haru

Haru brings close-quarters-combat to the game: His charge attack releases a death-marked kunai, then use his special ability to slash into and back from it, dealing extra damage if the kunai is stuck to your enemy. Use this combo to deal damage efficiently and, if you're good, to dodge incoming projectiles!

Attack: Haru's skillset is attack based. When Haru blocks successfully, he gets a temporary attack speed boost.

Haru fell prey to forbidden love, by involving himself with the ward of Shogun Akio. When exposed, the shame within was daunting. Unfortunately, suicide was honourless, so he was caught between Honour and Shame. Unwilling to bring any more dishonour to his family, he left his ancestral home and wandered the world. He felt drawn in his travels, and eventually he found the Spirit of Shame, encased in a Godsblood crystal. He was told of a being of enormous power sleeping under Skydream Mountain, a being that would kill him, regardless of his skill. The ninja accepted the Spirit as part of his penance, and started walking, looking for his final battle, a way to die with honour...
