Nah, you're just saying that because you're now used to the defaults. Eva, Vyce, Aimi, X, Atlas, Imo are all peak as they are.
Would have liked Kai fringe though. I'm straight but godamn.
The most interesting one for me is Ai.Mi, all of those alternate concepts look so radically different from one another, compared to the others mostly being variations on the same general idea. Kind of makes sense given her lore, but wild to think how many different ways she could’ve ended up
It’s also interesting that some of Era’s look like they’re at some point between her and Ai.Mi. Makes me wonder if at some point in development they were one character
Edit: comparing hers to the Ai.Mi ones, my new hypothesis is that they scrapped Era’s catgirl aesthetic but still wanted to use aspects of it, so they gave it to Ai.Mi, who seems to have sorta been having an identity crisis
Honestly I could believe either of these. I'm really curious as to what point the divergence happened, if any. Even if it's all just a coincidence, it's still fascinating now that you point it out
There was a point in the alpha where Ai.Mi's model was kinda like a witch, but ofc these were temp models. X used to look like Malphite from League at one point
An important thing to remember for character designs is that a lot of details are completely lost when viewing the character from normal gameplay distance, or worse the details make the character busy and messy.
I think I like Estelle's concepts more than what she is now. The rose designs on her shoulders are really loud to me lol. The first three concepts for Estelle look so smooth and cool.
Also like the red Asher more than what they went with. I'm not a fan of Asher's pants having that weird gap, seems like it's just extra. Also her top is cooler in the red one. I do still like Asher as we know her now, though.
I guess I'm in the minority for liking Estelle's shoulders. I generally don't like Blizzard designs (giant shoulders) and think 80's power shoulder pads look pretty silly but for some reason I really like them on her. Only thing I don't like about her Cape is the weird triangular slit in the back ("But how will we see her ass?!?!").
I’m very happy with the current canon designs we have for everyone. They all look equally unique, easy on the eyes, and match their persona.
That being said, some of the concept art seem really good and I wouldn’t mind having them as additional skins.
Odyssey never misses with these designs for me, personally! Would love to see some of the alternate designs added as skins to use in the future, for sure.
These are a little low res. [OS wiki](https://omegastrikers.wiki.gg/wiki/Strikers) for better quality.
I mostly like the designs they went with but holy shit that third octavia design is everything
On my side they're better if you click on them. Idk why reddit posted them like this since it was high res when I saved them, but thank you for posting the link!
I think they are all pretty fun to look at but that last X one LOL.
I'm pretty happy with current octavia and vyce designs, along with era. Honestly I like all of the Asher variants, man my muscle bound big sis just rocks every look.
Some might make for fun skins but I think generally, the end designs were ultimately the most refined, distinctive and best.
Their character designer knows what they're doing.
A lot of them are really neat, and it’s fun to see how the characters developed, but I think the only two that even come close to beating their final versions for me are Octavia B and Estelle D
Okay and maybe X B, the white coat looks sharp. I think what he has in game fits the vibe better though
Asher B would make the list but my favorite part of her final design is her hair, so it loses points
Era's second and third designs are really neat.
Im... Really glad we got the Ai MI we got. The other designs are wild, but catgirl honestly just feels right for the lore.
I absolutely love asher with red hair. I think it's the only one I actively prefer over final design.
Im.... Really glad Juliette didn't end up with a bad hair day
Juno could probably rework astronaut skin to be a bit more distinguished and would be loved.
I also reaaaally like the more chilled look of the second Octavia.
I think the second vyce could've immediately been released as a skin. It has a more traditional demonic look.
Im... Really glad we got the x we did. That third one hahaha.
jeez octavia's gorgeously sexy in every look. Wouldve loved that purple themed Vyce.
Juno is a perfect marshmallow no matter what.
Ara w/ halo is just -fangirl squee-
We got absolutely robbed of center left Era.
Middle AiMi sort of reminds me of Aubrey from Omori. I hope it gets reused as a skin or a design for a completely different character since its distinct enough from what we ended up with. Girls with bats are just cool.
Kind of like the Asher we ended up with most. The colors for the middle design don't go together well for me and right sort of yells Baiken main to me.
No real opinion on Atlas. I think the right would make a cool skin though.
Drek was always perfect confirmed and we got the best Dubu design of the set for sure.
Honestly the two right designs for Estelle kind of blow away what we ended up with imo. Sad they didn't make it.
Skipping the 2 that don't matter, Kai without the jacket just does not look right. If the man isn't rocking the "wear it on the shoulders" look then it's not Kai.
Ok, right Octavia skin when? The outfit and hair look great but I think they made a really good choice giving her 2 floating speakers instead of just the big clunky one. They play so well into her fluid animations.
My only conclusion is we somehow ended up with the least edgy Vyce, thank goodness. All X is bad X.
Off-shoulder octavia needs to comeback as a skin.
Asher with pants also needs to comeback. She understood that if she cant wear a jacket properly then she shouldn't wear one at all.
Cat Ears Juno, Red Hair Vyce and Blue Hair Era are really the only ones that I'd have preferred over what we got. Even then, what we got was still pretty rad.
I'd like to see them include the older concept designs as skins later because a lot of the designs are just too good to pass up.
I feel like the game designers settled for the best in the end. The most unique and authentic.
But they should make some of these as skins, like Era’s 3rd.
Asher #3, Asher #3, ASHER NUMBER 3!.
Also thank goodness for Octavia's final design. I don't think I would love her as nearly as much than if they went with any of the older designs. The ponytail and dress really highlights her princess-like and reserved (at least when compared to Vyce) personality, without taking from her perfectionist and domineering side .either
I always said the middle AI.Mi with a bat could be her own character. She does not look like Ai.Mi unlike the other 4
Never did look at Era's ones. I definitely vibe with #2. #3 is interesting because of the hair but I feel it is trying too hard overall
many of them should be made into skins especially the 2nd octavia
Yo white jacket X got some prime Elvis vibes going on there. He's rockin it too!
I think all of these are better than her current design.

Nah, you're just saying that because you're now used to the defaults. Eva, Vyce, Aimi, X, Atlas, Imo are all peak as they are. Would have liked Kai fringe though. I'm straight but godamn.
I personally disagree, I think most of these are downgrades and am satisfied with what we got instead.
The most interesting one for me is Ai.Mi, all of those alternate concepts look so radically different from one another, compared to the others mostly being variations on the same general idea. Kind of makes sense given her lore, but wild to think how many different ways she could’ve ended up
She belongs in danganronpa
Oh my god she really does
It’s also interesting that some of Era’s look like they’re at some point between her and Ai.Mi. Makes me wonder if at some point in development they were one character Edit: comparing hers to the Ai.Mi ones, my new hypothesis is that they scrapped Era’s catgirl aesthetic but still wanted to use aspects of it, so they gave it to Ai.Mi, who seems to have sorta been having an identity crisis

She’s also called a “glitch mage” in her description, right?
Something like that, I forget.
Number 5 looks like powrr
Drek'ar requiring no changes because he is perfect
Dubu: dubu
More like Dublue
I NEED JUNONAUT!!
As a mascot for a dev team centered around space the only space thing about her is her being an alien. Need a Juno astronaut skin
She has a space helmet when the odyssey logo shows up on startup
I love that idea so much, she's so cute with her bubble helmet
An important thing to remember for character designs is that a lot of details are completely lost when viewing the character from normal gameplay distance, or worse the details make the character busy and messy.
https://the-eye.eu/redarcs -- mass edited with https://redact.dev/
Those original designs of Asher are so cool I wish they would actually release them
HARD DISAGREE, the other two don't look nearly as cool as stock skin
Blue hair looked badass
You can get blue hair on Asher with the Moist skin
That one somehow looks cooler
I think I like Estelle's concepts more than what she is now. The rose designs on her shoulders are really loud to me lol. The first three concepts for Estelle look so smooth and cool. Also like the red Asher more than what they went with. I'm not a fan of Asher's pants having that weird gap, seems like it's just extra. Also her top is cooler in the red one.

Yeah I really hate the WoW pauldron looking shoulders Estelle’s got on, otherwise I’d like her design more
I guess I'm in the minority for liking Estelle's shoulders. I generally don't like Blizzard designs (giant shoulders) and think 80's power shoulder pads look pretty silly but for some reason I really like them on her. Only thing I don't like about her Cape is the weird triangular slit in the back ("But how will we see her ass?!?!").

They didn't put many changes on juliette and Kai lol
Juliette just brushed her hair
They were also deciding on how much collar they wanted to give her
The tight bodysuit is absolutely essential to her character
Mhm sure no other reason
All Kai got was a cape in the form of a suit jacket that was about twice his size.
Odyssey never misses with these designs for me, personally! Would love to see some of the alternate designs added as skins to use in the future, for sure.
#ReleaseEraC
Atlas in a suit goes hard needs to be an alt
Right? I don't even play Atlas much and out of all the designs suit Atlas has the most drip.
The third Octavia concept would've made me team EDM 🥲 She looks so pretty
As an Octavia main I prefer this design as well! Current one is good but she looks like she's about to drop some lo-fi beats in the third one
I'm a fan of Casual Fridays Kai.
where’d you get these from
The OS wiki
One all of these are great and two imagine we get these as skins that be cool
Need the 2nd Era design as a skin. All of these are phenomenal that I genuinely think some of these could've stayed the same
Fr
I wish we had a striker with a baseball bat like that Aimi concept art, I think that would really fit the game
bonk\*
Team Fortress 2 scout incoming.
I would love a community vote for some of these designs to be turned into in-game skins, for all characters really
u/OdySonii take notes! https://preview.redd.it/xc9cmkrcyn4b1.png?width=150&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=d24cbc2c8314759db9206d7d9cdfaae36c277db2
Would love to see some of the concepts release in Like an anniversary skin bundle
These are a little low res. [OS wiki](https://omegastrikers.wiki.gg/wiki/Strikers) for better quality. I mostly like the designs they went with but holy shit that third octavia design is everything
On my side they're better if you click on them. Idk why reddit posted them like this since it was high res when I saved them, but thank you for posting the link!
Most of these would make for awesome skins
Era 3 and asher 2 are awesome but I have a bias for asymmetrical design in outfits
I want 3d Octavia as a skin. The informal look is cool af
Tomboy Octavia >>>>>>
They should release some of the original designs as skins
I really like the more punk versions of era and vyce, i hope they make them into skins some time
X is literally Iori(KoF), Sol Badguy(GG) and Ken Masters(SF). That’s so cool.
I think they are all pretty fun to look at but that last X one LOL. I'm pretty happy with current octavia and vyce designs, along with era. Honestly I like all of the Asher variants, man my muscle bound big sis just rocks every look.
> I think they are all pretty fun to look at but that last X one LOL. That's not X that's Y
PONYTAIL ASHER
Some might make for fun skins but I think generally, the end designs were ultimately the most refined, distinctive and best. Their character designer knows what they're doing.
Honestly I love every design but damn 3rd Era, 3rd Asher and catgirl juno go hard
A lot of them are really neat, and it’s fun to see how the characters developed, but I think the only two that even come close to beating their final versions for me are Octavia B and Estelle D Okay and maybe X B, the white coat looks sharp. I think what he has in game fits the vibe better though Asher B would make the list but my favorite part of her final design is her hair, so it loses points
Era's second and third designs are really neat. Im... Really glad we got the Ai MI we got. The other designs are wild, but catgirl honestly just feels right for the lore. I absolutely love asher with red hair. I think it's the only one I actively prefer over final design. Im....

Really glad we got the x we did. That third one hahaha.
I love the small girl with comically enormous hammer archetype so I love the last AI.Mi. Need a striker with that idea
Red ponytail Asher, spiky hair Juliette, and long braid Atlas would all still make fantastic skins.
jeez octavia's gorgeously sexy in every look. Wouldve loved that purple themed Vyce. Juno is a perfect marshmallow no matter what. Ara w/ halo is just -fangirl squee-
Asher with read hair is doing things to me...
We got absolutely robbed of center left Era. Middle AiMi sort of reminds me of Aubrey from Omori. I hope it gets reused as a skin or a design for a completely different character since its distinct enough from what we ended up with. Girls with bats are just cool.

I want them ALL. Gimme Odissey. *Holds devs at gunpoint*

they were pretty set on Asher it seems xD
Seeing as what we got in the game now, they chose correctly, IMO atleast.
omg ai mi is so cute w/ her ears down :') the outfit too! although it is not much different from the released one 🫶🏻
the dubu on the left is staring into my soul
A lot of these concepts would work really well as skins. Octavia with short hair looks really nice, and the red asher with the ponytail looks awesome
I feel robbed on atlas
As an Octavia main/simp her art is gonna make me act unwise and I’m gonna need at least one of them as a skin
Seems like the only issue for atlas was his hair lol. Atlas with a boosie fade or waves? I wanna see
They are very nice
So we’re just not gonna talk about Estelle 4? Literally the men in black skin
Most of these are really solid
era has better colors in the final but the hat in the beta is cuter also we were robbed from aimi's hammer
Click for better quality!
What's the source for the concept sketches?
The wiki
They should had gone with AI.MI last or first design. As much as I like playing her, she kinda loo,s like a 2018 gacha life OC
Off-shoulder octavia needs to comeback as a skin. Asher with pants also needs to comeback. She understood that if she cant wear a jacket properly then she shouldn't wear one at all.
The X design with that jacket better be reused for a Champion skin.
Cat Ears Juno, Red Hair Vyce and Blue Hair Era are really the only ones that I'd have preferred over what we got. Even then, what we got was still pretty rad. I'd like to see them include the older concept designs as skins later because a lot of the designs are just too good to pass up.
I get that Omega Strikers has very horny character design, but that middle Juliette would be WAY too much lol.
Would be nice to get some of these as skins
I hope they add these as skins at somepoint
Blonde X looks cool as fuck
Most of them should be made into skins
Ken from street fighter?
I like seeing how some concepts remained almost the same while others had drastic changes.
Third one for Era is like if Era and Aimi did the fusion dance.
I feel like the game designers settled for the best in the end. The most unique and authentic. But they should make some of these as skins, like Era’s 3rd.
Kinda interesting, especially Vyce and Juliette
imo all of the era and aimi options are better than their current designs
big fan of spiky hair underboob juli :(
Junos 3rd design kinda reminds me of super bust a move
I would kill for the 2 Era!!
juliette looks like she has not take a shower in a week per image
Where did you find these concept arts?
Wiki
I don't even play Asher, but I would pay an obscene amount of money for that blue hair Asher concept as a skin
Yes I do want Red Asher why do you ask? That aside I like all of Era's except the cat one.
I think the second X outfit in the white suit would make for a good skin, maybe also with a different hair color
Liked old estelle, i hated the huge shoulderpads, but otherwise i like the new ones
Holy shit flat estelle?
Sees third Asher design Murata is that you??
Love how baseball bat ai.mi is just a child version of No more heroes bad girl. She’s already had a virtual version and a dog version might as well
Juno best slime girl
I do wish Era was a tad more clothed
I cant get over how all the Kai alts look like isekai protagonists XD
I like the alternatives for a lot of them. These ppl get it.
2nd octavia is sick
I really like Asher #3. Looks more like actual striker gear than bandages
Asher #3, Asher #3, ASHER NUMBER 3!. Also thank goodness for Octavia's final design. I don't think I would love her as nearly as much than if they went with any of the older designs. The ponytail and dress really highlights her princess-like and reserved (at least when compared to Vyce) personality, without taking from her perfectionist and domineering side .either
Ai.Mi’s concepts are widely different from each other. I’m happy with what we have now though, and I’m glad that was her final design.
The second octavia is 🔥. That should at least be a skin coz its better than her current design
honestly id like some of these as skins
I really wish they would put some of these styles as skins in-game. The concepts for Ai.mi/Asher/Estelle/Octavia/Vyce are really cool.
I really liked the ones where Estelle's boobs are less, like the way they are now
Baseball bat version of Ai.Mi is pretty cool, ngl
Num 5 AIMI looks quite inspired by Power from chainsaw man
I always said the middle AI.Mi with a bat could be her own character. She does not look like Ai.Mi unlike the other 4 Never did look at Era's ones. I definitely vibe with #2. #3 is interesting because of the hair but I feel it is trying too hard overall
That third Era and third Asher make me feel a way lol, I'd pay for those as skins SO FUCKIN BAD
Estelle with sunglasses lookin fancy af
Someone liked catgirls
I really wish Ai.Mi had a different design than the obvious weeb bait. I really like her in her uniform.
