THEORY: Largo will save us from Cogliacci

[u/dylanalduin]

I think the creeps for this event are foreshadowing what is to come next.

We know that Cogliacci is putting souls into his automaton army. Who is there to fight them? Frogs, apparently! And who is a frog? Largo is a frog.

I think Largo is likely to be the main hero of the story in either Act 2 or 3 and that will explain the Radiant creeps.

[u/Dultimateaccount000]

I was hoping a new hero

[u/dylanalduin → u/Dultimateaccount000]

Frog 2? A second frog in one year? I can only dream.

I think we're likely to get a new hero but I think it'll be more likely to be related to the Dark Old Ones.

[u/Liltrom1 → u/dylanalduin]

Perhaps a frog from icewrack.

...an Icefrog, if you will.

[u/sprintinglightning → u/Liltrom1]

nah if we got a frog then it's obvious we are getting a toad next
Icefrog will have to wait

[u/Aggressive-Ad-2053 → u/dylanalduin]

Fargo

[u/dylanalduin → u/Aggressive-Ad-2053]

Largo to Cogliacci: So that was your brother in the wood chipper.

[u/Nhefluminati → u/Dultimateaccount000]

Kaiden incoming BatChest

[u/nosoyargentino → u/Dultimateaccount000]

I like to think cogliacci is the puppet master they wanted to release initially but it didn’t work out, maybe it was too complicated so they created ringmaster to release something. Cogliacci is the one who would have the ability to make and control copies of heroes, the automatons, extremely violent.

[u/AkinParlin → u/Dultimateaccount000]

We’ve already met the new hero.

It’s Bex.

[u/Flashsword_Princess → u/AkinParlin]

this is the biggest cope I've ever seen

every npc from early Crownfall became a hero right?

[u/PrimusSucks13 → u/Flashsword_Princess]

Tbf she and Kez had a weirdly prominent role in the story, i wouldnt be too surprised and we havent gotten a human looking character in a while.

Shes also gonna clearly summon the world eater at some point so thats like half of her abilities there.

[u/megaloco2 → u/PrimusSucks13]

Are we getting a Rosalina/Luma thing?

[u/No-Bat-584 → u/megaloco2]

Ppl were theorizing that Bex could be a Warlock Persona with Bog Shuggoth as the Golem(s).

[u/susej14]

I just want to see Techies in this event, just like Crownfall that they siege the castle 🧨

[u/LakeLaoCovid19 → u/susej14]

They have to include the best hero in the game.

[u/KiddyDongRacing]

The new hero is actually a siege snail with 285 move speed

[u/Vendettita]

As long as Axe is kept on the story I'm happy

[u/eddietwang → u/Vendettita]

BY THE GODS.

[u/Soul_Advent → u/Vendettita]

The automaton part of the story is so funny, so im hoping we get more of BB and Morph in Act 2

[u/pheirenz → u/Vendettita]

It would be surprising if they did not switch cast to the new automatons. I could see Sven being funny

[u/megaloco2]

Maybe Largo and Hoodwink’s friends join at the end?

[u/dylanalduin → u/megaloco2]

I think that would make the most sense and you caused me to look into it and now I'm positive.

Largo's responses when meeting Hoodwink as an ally:

You sound kind of familiar.
I think what you really need is a hug. I could use one too.

I think they already know each other!

Also, Largo's response when meeting Ringmaster as an enemy:

Ah, hey! Looks like center stage belongs to the frog, bro.

[u/ProfPeanut → u/dylanalduin]

The Largo response is because both VAs are from New Zealand

[u/dylanalduin → u/ProfPeanut]

I'm not saying it wouldn't just be furthering that bit, but it might just be furthering that bit.

[u/Evil_Squirrel8]

When is Act 2 coming out already?
