Hats off to both combatants but with that said I vote ShadowRose.

C3whiteshadow is impossible, I thought you can best him.

i voted for dracko because i hate backstorys LOL sounds like a lame excuse but 2 be honest about 2 to 3 mins of roses anim was backstory so when i read these things saying that drakos was short roses was just as short really just my opion..... but both were very gud

I just watched both and I'm amazed at both animation videos. Both were very intense with amazing scenes and explosives. I watched both videos at least 3 times each lol. This will be a hard decision, but great job to both of you!!!

I disagree. There are many people better than C3, like Endo, I feel. Maybe not Dracko, maybe Nhazul or Hyun or maybe even Oxob.
One day, he won't be undefeated.
That's not to say he isn't good, but he will go down.

Personally gotta say that this is the "closest" vote difference C3 gets so far, in before his match with Blux4 made him win with 19 votes ahead from Blux4. With that said, I'm pretty sure C3 could be evenly matched after several times battling in the future against people with the same skill as his - or even better.
Though I think I'm speaking too soon at the moment as the voting time hasn't ended yet. And sorry C3 I decided to vote for Dracko this time 'cause of reasons. I still love your battles really~~

Whats left if AE take away? Storyline, sounds effect work, musics adjustment, bonus character researching, real martial arts, choreography, character's personality, effort.
@TrulyEpic: Long time no see, I thought u die with ur Mac.

Yeah this one is pretty neck and neck. I'm gonna give it to Whiterose though. Although Dracko's last bit was action packed, it was only the dynamic angles that caught my eye which wasn't enough to overcast Whiteroses well-rounded show from choreography to effects. Dracko's fighting and effects outside of the more drawn parts were very lacking.

That aside, both are great. The animation skill level looks pretty identical to me between the two, some must mistake Dracko's drawing skill for animation competence

Although dracko have some advantage of attack him again and using the sync powers. But shadowrose can attack him with long range which dracko can't handle.

Choosing a vote to cast on...

Voted casten on C3. Reason is their duration and weapon.

I'm getting a new laptop soon lol.

vote to c3
your animation skill is so incredible man, those 2d and 3d things and street fighter references are so good, and your 2d fight is as good as dracko's
though i hate butterfiles, that was an awesome animation

@Mustika: Blu's fight was much better, i won by better graphic.
@TrulyEpic: Wait for u go back with anim.
To be true, this fight is different from many others since both werent swords, but 1 has long range & 1 has short range. 1st fight was hand to hand combat, so nothing special. 2nd fight in other way, using weapons, i did my best showing how SRose tried to keep distance from Shura, and Shura tried to dash toward ShadowRose. The fight in overall seems short, but both combine reach to 110s (60s pure fight & 50s finish move cinematic)

i vote dracko.
when watching his animation, i remember someone said :
"there is 2 kind animator, fast 2d, and slow angles EVERYWHEERE"
and dracko nailed that fast angles EVRWIMOIEMDWIMDWHERE

C3's animation maybe will make my eyes epilepsy, but i must laugh see you put "Revenge" and "Oxob VS Xenrath" story in there i was like "wut, wait, really, AWESOME!" you make it balance and funny.

C3's Animation is a combination of Flash and After Effects, which creates an unfamiliar style for me (but unique).
tbh I kinda get confused with the v-cam movement, also the blur is getting too much (for me)
But I like how you make it as a story, and the Background makes the environmental more live and nice.

Dracko's Animation is pure Flash-animation, but sadly the background environmental kinda dead, but the cinematic viewpoints are good and awesome.
Also when the close-up scene, the stickfigures are more detail and the outline is fit (i luv ur style m8)
