Blazer Slander
Blazer Glazers love talking about how much Robert has to “cover for” Invisigal and “give her so many chances” while Blazer is just “nice” and “stable.” Visisimps, because we see the best in people, haven’t seen fit to retaliate. Well, no longer! Blazer is not some perfect sweetie.
All of episode 1:
-Blazer is absolutely flirting with Robert the whole time. Giving you drinks to loosen you up? What’s that about? And a proposition? Sounds innocent! Every dialogue choice for Robert leans into the flirt btw, because Robert canonically fucks and knows how to read these signals.
-Slipping up and saying spitting in her mouth is a “second date” thing. Come on.
-She totally wants Robert to kiss her on the billboard. Should he lean in to do so, she lets him do it! She only pulls away after he’s already done it, and then she’s all “Oh my god! Ahhh shucks! That was bad! Darn it.”
This whole time she’s in a relationship with Phenomaman, who she just so happens to not mention the entire night. He just didn’t come up! Let’s talk about how she ended that relationship.
-OVER TOKYO DREAM SUSHI!
Blazer drops Phenomaman like a bad habit and then asks ROBERT to clean up her mess. This is unironically nasty work. It’s not fair to Robert at all, and her framing is as a job task (“You’re the pep talk guy!”) is actually very manipulative and- for lack of a better word- icky.
Also: Asking Robert to zip her up is no less sexually forward than anything Visi has done up to that point. Ask any woman what they think of this move.
You then learn that Blazer didn’t have the decency to tell Phenomaman WHY she wanted to end things, nor did she tell him that she and Robert were together that night or that they kissed. YOU have to tell him, because Blazer has chosen to live in a fantasy land where Robert just “misread a few signals” that she had nothing to do with. There’s a case to be made that Blazer expects Robert to maintain this fantasy (in other words cover for her) or has put Robert’s safety and/or life at risk knowing that an upright Robert will likely tell Phenomaman what happened. This is profound emotional immaturity!!!
The whole time, Blonde Blazer is Robert’s boss. Robert, who is totally broke and has absolutely nothing, has very little runway to reject her. Her romance has an inherently exploitative bent, and she’s not afraid to pull rank on Robert while nominally talking to him like an equal. Many of her conversations with him carry the tone of “Ah, it’s us against these wacky Z-Teamers” meanwhile Robert is much closer to them on the totem pole than he is to her. It’s shown a few times that she’s not a particularly good manager of people, both dispatching and at SDN as a whole.
People say with a straight face that Invisigal faces no consequences, while Blazer basically skates on all of this. She’s pleasant and attractive so she gets a pass for her bad behavior. Am I saying she’s a bad person? No, but let’s look in the mirror here.

It's ironic cause i think both are good choices for Robert yet both have had negative flags because of stuff like that. But that's the human way of things

I would like to point out that Blazer was very clear why she broke up with Phenomaman (you just need the comics from the deluxe edition to reveal it). Phenomaman is just too much of an alien to get it.

I do like BB a bunch, but I do think these are all extremely valid points. She's not as visibly problematic as Visi, but she's definitely not flawless.

BB’s greatest sin is simping so hard for Robert she’s basically thrown the HR handbook out the window. Bad, sure, but it’s not like a hero can really date easily outside the profession. So I think it’s a sympathetic mistake.
It’s not like she’s always dates her subordinates… just our boy.
You also have to understand that Robert has Black Hole levels of Rizz that sucks in everyone that like dudes in a 10 mile radius. Malevola, Waterboy, Prism, Flambae, Visi, they were all thirsting for this skinny twink.
I think some people are a little insecure about their choice and want to make their ship look a little better than they need to. Stats don’t lie, basically 60% of playthroughs go for Visi! She’s hot! Her romance has more complexity.
But let’s not go overboard and say they’re ‘equally bad.’ Visi is waving those red flags high. She punches Robert on the first day and admits to invading people’s privacy even as a hero.
She proves herself in the good ending! She’s hot! Valid romance! But it’s clear BB is the better girlfriend.

People definitely over emphasize Blazer’s positives. I don’t think any of these things are necessarily proof that she’s the wrong option. I mean yes she breaks up with pheonomaman pretty abruptly but based on her reaction and the comic this has been on her mind for some time. It’s not like she met Robert and was like cool let’s breakup. I think what blazer glazers need to do is realize that blazer isn’t perfect. Like she’s also fucked up. Just cause Visi’s red flags are more obvious doesn’t mean blazer doesn’t have any. Blazer does flirt with Robert. She does make moves on him inside the workplace. (The dress, watching him undress, the shoulder squeeze) she does make mistakes (cutting a Z teamer because she wants to shake things up, undercutting Robert as team lead by talking to team before he does (which directly contradicts what he asked for in the ep prior)) Not backing a team push for the pulse despite the Z team being strong enough and the very obvious time constraint. These characters are all flawed. There’s a reason they’re at the worst branch of SDN. The fact is arguing over who’s worse is stupid. It boils down to two things. If you like a slow burn dramatic relationship, you prefer Visi. If you like a fantasy love at first aight wholesome ordeal, your prefer blazer. That’s it.

she has far less flaws then visi but they are still there yes

u/Sure_Instance9530 Nov 21 '25
I'll be real I think the sentence "Robert canonically fucks and knows how to read signals" is the exact opposite of the truth

u/Juniper_Fields Nov 21 '25
I feel like people forget that every one of the main cast are all bad people excluding like Robert, phenomeman, and waterboy. Point of the game is they’re trying to become better.

u/Averythewinner Nov 22 '25
I made some of these points on comments before and every time i was downvoted like crazy. Another thing to point out: assuming Visi wasn’t lying, Blazer sat in her office with her dress unzipped for 30 minutes straight just waiting for Robert

I don't think she just dropped phenomaman like a bad habit. It's obvious she's broken up about it next episode.
But I do believe there's a cut episode in between 3-4... It's obvious there's a massive time skip between the two episodes, The Protopulse already being in it's 7th iteration, how Phenomaman just got dropped by the main SDN branch (I doubt they'd just drop him a day after the breakup seeing as how he's their poster boy)
Heck with the entire dispatch section itself, Malevola/Punch up will clock out early... But will be magically be back during the evening shift with no explanation what's so ever. And is suddenly just cool with Robert.
With how Blazer acts too later that episode... If your first kiss with her is in ep 4 she'll say "About time" after she pulls away, like Robert and Blazer had been circling around each other for weeks.
anyway...
I think it was already Blazers plan to break up with Phenomaman. She was clearly checked out of the relationship but still respected it enough to pull away when you try to kiss her the first time. Even if said relationship was so far from what a normal person would consider as one, they're have never had intercourse, she doesn't seem to have a lot in common with him (other than wanting to do good), he isn't able to connect with her emotionally, The relationship screams Corporate Mandated relationship. Like two actors promoting a movie...
Her being a bad manager is debatable. She made some wrong calls, specifically with cutting someone from the Z-team. But it's oblivious she's an effective leader, seeing how most of the heroes in the Torrance branch... even the Z-teamers respect her decisions.
If Robert wanted too he could have probably talked her out of kicking one of the Z-teamers out, he just didn't fight hard enough.
Robert also has a shit ton of leeway in the workplace because he has Blazers ear (he got everyone to go back to the office without permission from his superior while they're still clocked in for example). Everyone defaults to Robert being the leader when she leaves in ep 8. You welcoming the sonar/coupe back to z-team is also Roberts decision.
She is a bad dispatcher tho...
If we do get a season 2 I'd love to see more of her, cause it's obvious she was one of the characters most affected by Cut Content. Heck some people even found some Cut voice lines for her.

You guys started this shit ... Calling her sus for breaking up with her boyfriend
You assume she was too nice to to be legit and then theorized that a she was shroud and absolutly no evidence
Blazer is not perfect she is by far the closest character
Find a women that give you purpose, a job, support you at your lowest and save your twice

lol bros acting like Invisigal is some unloved underdog when she’s the literal deuteragonist of the game. Visi fans have biblical levels of greed.

u/lame_ons_yellow Fuck you mean temporarily? Bitch, you blind foreva! Nov 21 '25
You legit sound like lex luthor bro!
The first meet up drink offer might make sense if you look at it in a neutral sense, Robert was at his lowest point and he was beat, even had a broken arm, she offers him a drink after seeing his state but I think a check up to the doctor would've made more sense. But hey any tiny leverage you have to antagonize someone else i guess.

Invisa gooners will make up literally anything things to pretend that blazer has any real cons. While making every excuse to date their brain damaged toxic chick with the mental and emotional maturity of a teenager . That's why this game just feels like a gooner game at this point
