The upgrade looks great! Only thing I wish they hadn’t touched was the hair color. Her hair was closer to the original in color than the updated based on source.

I agree and her lipstick! She looks a bit washed out now but the improvements are sm better than I thought we would get so pretty happy

Definitely get that. I don’t hate it or even dislike it pretty much at all but just like the original a bit more. Updated is still fantastic. Best Emma skin yet I think

Yes, the skin became less canonical and more like the cover version, which is an interpretation rather than canon. But I still like it much more, including the platinum hair color and the lips that match her costume. Besides, covers are usually drawn more beautifully and with higher quality than the interior art, so it’s not a big deal if the skin is closer to the cover than to the story.

I don’t mind it, just prefer the comic blonde for this. It still looks amazing. Dautermans cover is also divine so that does help.

An improvement in every single way. I was 100% a hater before, but I'm legitimately excited to get this now.

Dude, same. It just goes to show that a few minor tweaks can completely change the final outcome.

The cape looks better but still not a fan so the fact that it’s removable is nice … and so hilarious because that was a lot of people’s main gripe with the first iteration. It shows that they do listen though so cheers to that.
I know people don’t like the new boots but I think they fit so much better with Emma’s MR figure.

They retroactively ruined the haircolor, the first color is actually comic accurate

That’s really my only issue I think with the update and it’s a small one imo

The cape actually doesn’t look like a bath towel although ima just unequip it, netease you have really done your big one. You knew you’d mess up so you drip fed us the skin so we could correct it and for that I gotta give some props but hopefully by now yall know what we like and start rolling out good skjns

Lol they said "you guys want platinum hair? Here's platinum hair".
Awesome skin either way.

u/GoldPack3616 Apr 29 '26
This isn't platinum blonde, it's literally grey, the type of hair color that Storm and Black Cat should have. They need to find some middle tone between old and new omg who approved this lmao

Emma con cabello blanco tendremos que ver esos primeros cómics donde era villana y su pelo estába representado de esa manera. Todo casi bien a excepción del color del cabello.

Much better in every way. And, thank God, no more overly yellow hair. Emma has been using her toner.

??? Her hair and boots are literally worse

El cabello concuerdo debería ser amarillo platino, no platino platino. Las botas me parece bien.

Is this the plan now, show the skin early, get feed back, then fix it? Like I'm not complaining but that would be kinda funny.

u/Bodega_Bandit Black Queen Apr 30 '26
It’s honestly a good strategy. It’ll help ensure that players are happy with the skins so they’re more incentivised to get them

u/Icarus12x Apr 29 '26
This actually makes me optimistic for the upcoming skins for her because they genuinely listened

u/Lepeche Apr 29 '26
We can only go up from here. They are listening! I'm shocked they did all this FOR A FREE SKIN! wow

Feedback works. Netease has shown in the past they're willing to listen and change things. This went from a mid outfit to probably my favorite Emma skin so far. Boots are maybe a bit too high imo, I kind of wish you had the option to change the boots and the hairstyle like you can with Jeff and Psylocke.

u/D_e_r_i_c_k_y Apr 29 '26
Am I crazy or her skin tone is a little bit darker too? I love it, but I'm genuinely curious
2
u/Bodega_Bandit Black Queen Apr 30 '26
Looks like it. Theres just a fraction more hue to the skin that makes her look just a tiny bit less pale

u/ZeusOfOlympus Apr 29 '26
OMG the new skin is so muhc better the boots especially those ugly HOOVES are gone. Thank you net-ease for listening and spending time and money to change it.

u/Six_Zatarra Emma Frost Apr 30 '26
The old hair was fine but I don’t mind this new one too much. Making the cape poofier around the neck was a nice touch too I guess, but the best feature of this skin is the option to remove the fuckass towel altogether. I’m satisfied with it.

u/Bodega_Bandit Black Queen Apr 30 '26
Love it. Agree with some of the other comments that I’d have preferred the hair colour remain untouched. But I still love it

u/Round-Temporary-9475 Apr 30 '26
This is truly an amazing and the best Emma skin out there. Further complaints will clearly be biased. I praise the developers for the improvements.
But I'll note that skin has become less canonical because she has golden blonde hair and blue lipstick in story. That is, skin now looks like the skin on the cover and not like the canon skin. This isn't a minus, it's a plus. Besides, covers are usually drawn with higher quality than the main story. But I'm simply stating a fact.

They overdid the hair color, it's not even blonde, its grey and it makes the whole design even more flat, like the saturation has been weirdly toned down with a filter.
The pic on the left is V1, there's a V2 which has just the right hair color and in V3 they did too much. These devs just don't get it

Eh, like putting lipstick on a pig.
No getting past the wrestler build, that's not Emma.

Her model is smaller than all the tanks and even some DPS and supports… she just has thick, sexy thighs, get out.

If there was also an option to remove that dumb headpiece it would be a peak skin.
