So in some future upcoming update. OOO is releasing BATTLE SPRITES! Hooray!!! They've already explained each battle sprite and what each of it's abilities have to offer so I want to know some of the battle sprites YOU are going to choose.
I'm not spoiling anything, as so http://forums.spiralknights.com/en/node/72304, where you can find all the details.

There are 3 Sprites classifying in different things

Drakon - Specializing in - a dragon and delivers powerful, fiery blasts to your foes. It's ideal for anyone who favors head-on combat.

Seraphynx - Specializing in - an angelic cat-like creature and uses its luminous powers to defend the party from attacks. It's a fine choice for knights who wish to aid their fellow party members.

Maskeraith - Specializing in - a masked phantom and uses its toxic powers to debilitate enemies. This devious sprite is a perfect choice for those that like to hide in the shadows or cripple their foes before delivering the final blow.

Please note, I'm not spoiling anything, I am not responsible for arguments about which is better, it's all about the choice of the knights and why they like that specific sprite. So below post your Knight Name, The Sprite you are Choosing, and Why you are choosing that sprite.

I think I may make this a contest, so the winner of this will get 200 CE Plus an Honorary Spur.
How I determined the winner will be posted at the end of this contest. Contest Ends on February 8th, 2013 6:00 PM CST (Central Standard Time).

My Choice

My Choice is Maskeraith.
My Knight Name is SirLancer/CounterZero.
I choose Maskeraith because I love to travel through shadows unknown. For example, in PVP Colloseum, I always go recon. Hiding in plain sight.

Canine-Vladmir

Okay!~

Canine-Vladmir
Pet --> Maskeraith which i will switch name to Toxic Cupcake or something.
Why? I think in the long run its gonna be very handy. Not choosing the Dragon cause im fearing it might be like a mecha knight with only attacking one enemy at a time. Maskeraith should have a Huge AoE and with poison its a win win with most bosses.
Also im gonna be breezing throu clockworks playing solo with my toxic buddy.

Zaderules

Name: Zaderules
Sprite: Seraphynx
Reason: I think having a pet Ahri following around is cute :3 But anywhoz...... I like the defense bonuses. I'd rather survive longer and laugh at my dead teammates than go all out with attack power. :D

Tue, 01/29/2013 - 19:13

Skyguarder

Name: Benightz
Sprite: Maskeraith
Reason: I'm a knight that specilizes in hiding behind the shadows. I can be even more overpowered which sounds means. Anyways, I would take it for many more reasons!

Tue, 01/29/2013 - 19:16

Vyrral

Name: Vyrral Sprite:

Name: Vyrral
Sprite: Maskeraith
Reason: I like Maskeraith, because I've always liked dark type things, plus the poison would be really helpful for support.

Nexassassin

I choose y...-agh it's overused

Name: Nexassassin
Sprite: Maskeraith
Raison: Debilitate, weaken, wear them down then strike when they're vulnerable. Crippled, deal the coup de grâce swiftly and silently move towards your next target, stalk them from the shadows. Lurk in them. Live in them. Become the shadow. Everyone will know the taste of poison and they will love it. They won't be able to resist it. And you will always be there with your Maskeraith to serve.

*Contest Update* New Updated Prizes!!!

I have updated the prize pool and now prizes will be given from 1st through 5th place.
1: 200 CE or the choice of a UV'd Arc Razor. Or you can get 100 CE and a Normal Spur.
2: 150 CE or the choice of a UV'd Spur. Or 50 CE and a Normal Spur.
3: 100 CE or a UV'd Spur.
4: 50 CE or a UV'd Spur.
5: 40 CE or a Normal Spur

Frewuently asked Question:
Why a Spur? Why not a better weapon.
Answer: People Underestimate the spur. It's been stopped at lvl 4 star because it has the power of Leviathan Blade. Many people say I'm such a skilled player when in plain sight. It's just an OP weapon that can basically instakill in 3 hits. Winmillion takes pure skill especially if you ever try using it in Solo Vana run. Is it possible? Yes I've done it atleast 10 times. Fastest time is 34 minutes.

The prize pool depends on how many people post on this forum by 2/8/13. So if only 10-20 ect join, possibly there will be less winners.

Updated using my phone. Sorry for any errors.
Update: I will be reading each one of these and try to put some effort into some descriptions of why you want to use that sprite. Higher chance of winning. Be creative dont copy other's entries. You arr allowed to post links to pictures that YOU drew yourself of you and a sprite for a 10% increased rate of winning and possibly if you dont win, you will get some feedback and probably a smaller prize. This whole contest is from my SK zknight and no one is helping me so please dont rage if prizes aren't ready by then.

UV's at Random

UV will be at Random Luck for what I craft. Once I reach a maximum amount of UV items, (Spurs or Arc Razor), Any items not used in this contest will be either used in my next contest or sold in the auction house. BTW if 200 people post their entries I will have an ULTIMATE winner using a shuffle program which will select 1 lucky contestant who will get 500 CE or the Choice of a UV Winmillion.

Spold

Name: Spold
Pet: Seraphynx, will rename Incine.
Why?: I like to defend party members, the Seraphynx seems really useful and I like the fact that it combines elemental and piercing.

Bella-Donna

My pet

Maskeraith:

Maskeraith deals poision which makes monsters weaker and makes them take more damage, therefore he does the job of the other two sprites while being cool. Also, my name is a common name for a poison known as Deadly Nightshade.

Aureate

Obvious answer is obvious

There can only be one MASKERAITH.
I'm a recon, I don't need some sparkle cat trailing me around giving my position away all the time.
Ninja, please.

Fleet-Miss-Gun

^ Hello captain obvious.

There can be only be one SERAPHYNX.
I'am a guardian, i don't need some floating mask trailing me around dealing weak poison.
Shield, please.

(This is a total Aureate ripoff but as a guardian i'am very offended by Aureate.)

Thunder-The-Bright

IGN:

IGN: Thunder-The.Bright
sprite: Drakon
reasons:
1 I don't like the other 2, they aren't in my style.
2 since my blade has not a very high attack power, the sprite will come in handy.
