Resurgence - Match # 2 - Voting!

Tricky one here!

LMS: I can’t really critique the animation itself. Your animations, particularly of recent are always smooth, good speed, decently high frame rate and not too fidgety. Where this one falls short is the actual move. To me, it didn’t feel like a blue thunder bomb, there wasn’t quite enough hang time, it felt abrupt. By all means it was animated very well, but it didn’t quite look as grand as the move does in real life. Also, running felt a bit off. Sell was fine, not overdone, but still felt powerful. Amazing nonetheless. 9/10

STG: I feel like this was the opposite! Animation wasn’t quite the same, frame rate in my opinion wasn’t quite there, and at times the movements felt a bit off, perhaps fidgety but that’s not quite the word. Where this animation really succeeds is the likeness to the move. I think the extra lift and spin on the blue thunder bomb really made it look impressive. That combined with the sound effects really tied it all together. The set up was nice, I did like the sell, however it felt like Andrade went the opposite direction he should have. Well done. 9/10

I rated both animations the same, as I am genuinely undecided. I think my vote goes to STG. While I would say looking at the animation alone, ie movement, smoothness and frame rate, LMS is better, the actual life of the move done by STG, and everything else is just that bit better. Well done to both of you, you guys made this one very tough!
